บท 205: Pyramid of Light (VI)
Elron nodded, and he reached over to peel back the eggshells. Every time he interacted with the egg, the horrible scars and deformity seemed to change on his face and body. He started to change back to his original appearance as time went by, peeling off of him as if he was some lizard.
"I'll meet you outside when you're done. Agnis, if you don't mind helping him out."
"Sure." Agnis smiled with excitement. "I got everything ready for the new baby dragon." She pulled out a dish and food from her Zenith bag.
Zero left the room and found Valiant in his black dragon from sleeping outside in the warm meadow.
"Valiant!" Zero called out to him.
Valiant groggily woke up from Zero's voice. "Y-Yea?" He yawned and stretched like a cat.
"I need your help rounding up every high-level dragon and their companion. Could you bring them to the water fountain? We need to get a raid team started now."
"!" Valiant quickly got up. "I'll call my friends to get this done."
"I'll see you there."
"Gotcha." Valiant ran off to gather his comrades.
Zero went around, calling attention to all the dragons that he saw. Quickly the town square was filled with dragons and their companions. Zero had to jump up on the edge of the fountain to see. The people and dragons worriedly gathered wondering what Zero had to say. They knew something big was happening, so their life was on the line.
"What's going on?" Zeraph was next to him.
"We got a quest from the queen." Zero frowned. "And it's not the kind where we can take it easy."
"That could be a problem."
Zero looked into the crowd and took a deep breath. "We, as the Drezo Regalia, have been given a quest by the Elven Queen; only 41 dragons and 41 of their companions can enter at once. I assume the highest-level dragons and their companions have been given this quest."
Everyone nodded, understanding what Zero was talking about. They knew that their lives were on the line.
"This is a level B Quest, and we only have 82 to accomplish this task. The top eight highest-level dragons and their companions will lead a group of ten: 5 dragons and five companions. I know we just got out of a recent battle and are now thrown into danger once again. But as a dragon, I will not back down from danger. You all have a choice to take part and grow stronger. We will one day once again decorate the sky with our colors and become true Sky kings!"
Everyone stares silently.
"The top eight dragons step forward."
Eight different colored dragons of all eight races of dragon appeared before Zero. Zero was quite surprised that the same eight dragons and their partners were the ones to step up. They were Turnip, the blue male dragon, and his female elf partner Terry. Baku, the male red dragon, and his female partner Quill who had pink hair. Kai, the green dragon, and his female partner Leona. Val, the female bronze dragon, and her partner Ponza. Bee, the female silver dragon, and her partner Tanmint, a half-dwarf. Valiant, the male black dragon, and his female partner Reed. Seka, the female golden dragon, and her partner, Leaf, the elven male. The last one to step out was the Den, the female white dragon, and her partner Elfon, a male human.
"Hi, Zero." Den happily replied. Her glistening white coat shined brilliantly under the sun, making it difficult to look at her.
"Hey, Den. I'm glad to see you guys doing well. "
"We have been knocking out those levels and growing stronger together."
"That's impressive, but sadly I have to break up your team."
"What? Really?" Den frowned.
"Yea, each of you guys, will lead a group of ten: five dragons and their partners."
"That sounds exciting," Valiant replied cheerfully. "I was looking forward to finally doing something more productive. But, I mean, seriously, Seka's been hogging the glory."
"I do not." Seka rolled her eyes. "You just suck, that's all."
"Hardly. My Dark Magic beats your holy magic any day."
"We'll see about that."
"Hey, guys. I need you guys to focus." Zero snapped his fingers in front of them.
"Sorry." Both simultaneously stated, turning their attention back to Zero
"I want the rest of the remaining dragons to split up."
"Okay." The eight chimed in, understanding what Zero wanted them to do.
The group started to split into different groups. It didn't take long till everyone was finally situated. For some strange reason, each colored dragon followed behind their respective race.
"The eight of you will represent your color to identify your group."
"That's simple, but Zero, which group will you be in?" Valiant asked.
"None. I'll be jumping in wherever I'm needed."
"I'm cool with that. So, where exactly is the Pyramid of Light anyways?"
"Elron is going to take the front and lead us to it. He'll meet us there and join Val's group. You have one extra space for him and his partner."
"What? The enemy is tagging along, and you let him partner up with a dragon?"
"Look, there is a reason for all this. He's already an ambassador for our kind with the elves. We need a bit more protection before we leave."
"Wait, where are we going next?"
"Not sure, but I was thinking about going towards the Dark Continent."
"The Dark Continent? Are you sure? It's too early for us. Wouldn't it be better to float around the other cities in the Fire Continent?"
"We'll see. I haven't decided yet." Zero thought it over. Staying too long in the Fire Continent could bring trouble, but all the major cities and supply lines were there. Also, the Draconis Village was just budding, so it didn't have much to trade.
"Well, think a bit harder. It sounds like our death march is more than just exploring. We don't know what's out there."
"I know." Zero jumped off the water fountain. "We should go and meet up with Elron right now and get this quest underway."
The other dragons moved away for Zero to pass through. They looked upon Zero with respect and reverence. They all wished to one day grow up big and strong like him. Zero did not pay attention to their gaze and headed toward the Pyramid of Light. He had a quest to finish, and he was going to finish it as soon as possible. The rest of the dragons and their companions followed Zero toward the Pyramid of Light with fire in their eyes in hopes of becoming stronger than they were before. They knew this would be a difficult task, but they did not mind. They were all aiming to win.
