บท 241: Sky City Draconis (IV)
The Elven Queen smiled. "I believe that Krustallos would like to go with you." A large crystal the size of a man's fist was brought out by an elven maiden and placed in Zero's giant dragon hands. He stared down upon it with surprise.
A special Reward is given: Green Krustallos.
Green Krustallos
All information about the Green Krustallos is still being determined, but it is known that it is from a Drezo Regalia. There is calm energy coming from the Krustallos.
This Krustallos could mean only one thing, it was possibly an ancient dragon's Krustallos that harbors great power. He needed to bring it to the Draconis Library to activate its special contents.
"Are there any other questions that you would like to ask?"
"Actually, yes." Zero put away the Krustallos. "Are you by any chance the daughter of Heroes Lilith and Samael?"
The names caught the Eleven Queens off guard. Her lips began to curl into a gentle smile. "Yes. They are my mother and father. I have heard from the young Prince that my mother had turned into a monster." Her voice was saddened by the thought of her dead mother.
"The truth, your majesty, was that the demon's blood contaminated your mother. It was not her wish to cause havoc on the kingdom that she worked painstakingly to protect. Though Dion, the vampire that was destroyed in the last major event, I'm not sure; I have seen the atrocities he created in the mansion.
The Eleven Queen was quiet for a moment, the air became stifled at the news that Zero brought her, but eventually, she settled down. "Dion had been my friend and caretaker since I was born. To hear that he has become warped breaks my heart. I thought I had lost my friend to death, but it seemed I was wrong. Once again, thank you for the information." She made her way up from her chair and walked down towards Zero.
She then stopped in front of him and looked up at his golden eye that seemed to stare down at her from above. "With that young Prince. I have nothing more to say."
Elron walks up forward towards Zero. With a grin on his face, he spoke. "Hey, Zero."
"What's up?"
"My friend and I will be joining the city. I heard it was unsafe for my friend to be roaming around outside the perimeter of Draconis City. But, there is a price on our head from the Kingdom of Terra."
"I expected as much." Zero furrowed his eyes.
"No matter, stay in this city for a while. The Queen will give her your protection, you know."
Zero nodded. "I was planning on staying a bit after what Russ had pulled."
"I see. That's wonderful to hear. Well then, I have a couple of things to do. So I'll see you around."
Elron departed and went back towards the elven Queen.
Zero looked towards the Elven Queen and bowed, leaving Agnis out the door. From there, they went back towards the Sky City Draconis. He then made his way toward the Draconis Library and placed the Green Krustallos onto the eight pedestals. A flash of green light shot outwards into a dust of smoke. Fire, Water, Earth, and Air elemental energy swirls outwards and forms into
a large green dragon with open wings.
A gust of spring smell of leaves and tree sap tickles his nose. Then, with a thundering roar, the green Dragon bellowed outwards. The Library shook, and the people stared at Zero in shock. For a second, they thought that Zero was the one that caused the loud scene but eventually found out that it was not so.
The Legendary Green Dragon Randall
Randall was one of the great generals of the True Dragon. Gifted with a natural affinity to the elemental power, Randal could call up natural disasters with just a word when angered. His sweet and docile tendency did not always push him toward the edge, but when push came to shove, he used his power to benefit nature. However, he was not fond of the destructive behavior of humans, orcs, dark elves, and demons.
Only True Dragons and a powerful Drezo Regalias may touch the Krustallos without one's soul being taken away. Another famous name for this Krustallos is the Jaded Emperor.
A legendary Krustallos from a True Dragon, its famous name is called the Soul-Taker Obsidian.
+10% status increase for all green dragons and hybrid dragons with green Dragon blood for the day when near the Sky City Draconis.
Special: An elemental barrier is always in effect around the Sky City Draconis, giving a No kill zone inside the city wall among players. There is also a special barrier that repels low-level demons and monsters under level 100.
With a wide grin, he felt that Sky City was becoming stronger and giving players and residents a haven to grow up. Not only that, the coffers of gold have been increasing daily as new players and dragons are born every day, giving the city another source of circulation to help build the city quickly. More and more outsiders who wanted to live in the new city walls were slowly increasing, especially after the new addition of islands that were spread around the main island.
Zero checked his status menu to see how much he had grown.

His growth rate was extraordinary, especially since his leveling from 150 to 250 was getting much slower to the point where grinding in a lower level would take ages even to get one percent. What he especially looked forward to was his levels from 200 to 250. He could feel a slight itch from his back that he would spontaneously get throughout random intervals of the day. He did not know when his wings would pop out, but he hoped it would be very soon. Flying in the sky made him shiver with delight, and he could not wait till that day.
Agnis came over next to him. "Zero, I got some news you need to know."
"Sure, what's up?"
"Russ has taken over the whole Kingdom of Terra."
"W-what?! So soon?" Zero was shocked at how quickly Russ was moving to take over the kingdom.
"It's been a month, Zero. A Lot had happened when we were all inside the pyramid grinding away. So it shouldn't be that big of a surprise that he took it over. I had a feeling it was bound to happen sooner or later."
"Yea," Zero furrowed his eyebrows. He did not like the thought of what Russ might do with all that power, especially his vendetta against him and the dragons he had fought in the past month. Not only that, but he also had a black dragon soul that went into his body, making Zero worry with unease. "It just feels a bit sudden. He must be the first player to take over a kingdom."
"I wouldn't say he has full control over the kingdom. He is the right-hand man of the new king, making his voice powerful in governing the place. But that's not all; it has become a kill-on-sight order on all dragons that enter their territory."
"That I expected as much. That blasted the king and his greed. He couldn't let go of what wasn't his. If he does attack, I'll make sure I rain down fire on his army."
"Though Russ hasn't made a move yet to come after us. My guess is because we are in the elven kingdom that protects us from being overrun by them. I'm glad we moved down here, or we would've been toast. The best part is that he's been officially kicked out of the WaterRose Guild. Lilac didn't have his BSing attitude." She gave Zero a delighted smile. "I wouldn't be surprised if Sekka told Lilac everything that had transpired, and his rough attitude towards new players had gotten him in trouble countless times. He's been officially kicked out since a month ago."
"Now? That's a load off our shoulders. I did not want to have one of the twelve large guilds chasing us. To hear that the WaterRose guild has no relation with him anymore gives a load off our shoulders."
"I agree." Agnis nodded her head. "It seems Hercules' guild has been doing well. Aldrin and his guild are making quite a name for themselves in the Kingdom of Tarro. They had already set up their official guild home there and even got a piece of land. If I remember correctly, he got a title of a Duke, though it does not compare to yours or Russ's. His guild is still becoming bigger and bigger, rivaling head to head with other guilds."
"You know what surprised me the most?"
"What?"
"The O.M memory."
"Yea, I never knew you were a prince."
"Same…" Zero went silent.
"Well, does that make me a princess?" Agnis was getting excited.
"Um... that's only if you marry me."
"Hah? Did you propose to me?"
"No….." Zero was fidgeting. "I think it only applies to me. Not only that. The prince of dragons is just a title."
"Boo, you spoil the sport. Here I thought I would be some princess for a change. Life's not fair."
"Well, that's nothing much I can do about it."
Agnis smirked. "Yes, you can. Hand me the title."
"Hah?!" Zero was a bit taken aback. His eyes became wide.
"I'm joking. Don't give me that retarded look." Agnis laughed. "I'll be fine with the Royal Dragon Knight."
"Royal Dragon Knight? Did you get such a title?"
"Yep," Agnis said with a smile.
"Your title sounds a bit cooler than mine."
"I think something is wrong with your head. Prince of Dragons sounds cool enough."
Zero gave her a shrug. To him, it sounded like an arrogant title. He, for sure, wouldn't wave it around and instead keep it hidden as much as possible. However, being in the center of attention can become a hindrance at times.
He thought he saw a familiar figure not too far away from him. The same black hair, eyes, and nose, just like his, walking inside the Draconis Library. He scrubbed his eyes to ensure he did not see things, but when he started again, the exact familiar figure was present.
"Kyle?" Zero unconsciously spoke out loud. "Kyle?" His feet started to pick up in a hustle to get towards the figure walking towards the middle of the Six Hero statues that overlook the Library. Soft light gave him a ghostly look as if he was not part of the world.
"Zero?" Agnis called out from behind, wondering what was going on. Then, she started to follow him toward the same destination as Zero.
"Kyle!" Zero shouted. People move out of the way, trying not to get run over. The same messy hair, tall and lean, with a hint of mischief, was present on the person's face. When Zero called out to him, the person looked over his shoulder and temporarily met him eye-to-eye.
At that moment, Zero knew his brother was standing in the middle of the room. Kyle opened his mouth, slowly wording phrases that Zero did not completely get, but the few words he did read off of Kyle's lips.
'....Well done.' Zero reads from Kyle's lips.
A blaring red message appeared in front of Zero, temporarily catching his attention.
Special Announcement: The Kingdom of Tano, the Kingdom of Terra, and the Kingdom of Elements will send expedition forces to retrieve the three Holy Relics of their kingdom. There will be limited space and level requirements to join the expedition. It is on a first-come, first-serve basis. The level requirement needs to be over level 150, and the total available spaces are 10,000. This is a level B Quest. The recruitment will begin on November 25, 2054; please head towards the nearest enlistment in your local city for early bird enlistment.
When the message disappeared, Zero searched for his brother but did not find him anymore. He was frustrated that the game message made him lose his chance.
"Zero, are you okay?" Agnis walked over next to him, worried.
Zero was silent for a moment. He was angry that one second caused Zero to lose sight of his brother completely. "Yeah, I'm fine. Let's go."
"Are you sure? You don't want to talk about it?"
"I" m fine. Let's go and sign ourselves up."
Agnis worriedly watched over Zero, but she did not say anything more. They both turned around, left the Draconis Library, and headed toward the requirement area.
