The Villain's Story

Chapter 310 [310] Terra Damnun[2]

[Festul POV]

ʼLet me see what type of dragon this is...ʼ

I thought as I used my powers to pry deep into the soul of the young dragon.

His Draconian form was quite intriguing, the power he emitted however was quite weak for a dragon, even a young one.

It intrigued me. Especially after I heard all the praise Alex gave him.

Apparently, he was the one who injured that monster of a human known as the Sword Saint.

I want to know more about him.

Show me, everything about you.

I used my power but the moment I gazed at him...

ʼWhat is this darkness?ʼ

I wondered.

ʼDesolate, Depraved...nothing.ʼ

This darkness is strange. Is this what the young dragon holds within him? Was he a dragon of Death? His previous form did not suggest he was.

To think he was hiding this darkness within him, It seems his life has not been easy.

[There is not much to see...]

*Ss...*

My guard raised as I heard the hiss of a snake in this darkness.

Lightning flashed around my figure and I called out.

[Who goes there?]

I was wrong, this darkness was hiding something.

[So he was a snake? I need to warn Alex about him.]

A personʼs unconsciousness always hid their hidden desires, their true self. I was wrong about this Alan Peccator. He was no good man, he didnt deserve Alexʼs Praise.

[Jumping to conclusions are we?]

I heard a voice. The Voice of the Snake.

ʼWhat?ʼ

Iʼm shaking? My fur has stood up? Goosebumps...I am getting goosebumps.

Impossible. I am a Supreme being.

[You donʼt look like a Supreme Being...Oh Festul, Monarch of Storms...or should I address you as a puppy now?]

I saw two hideous, evil jade pupils in this eternal darkness.

They glowed menacingly.

[You dare?]

[Yeah.]

...

Who is this? This is not Alan Peccator.

[Finally, figured it out? Looks like you still have some supreme left in you.]

The snake mocked me.

[To hear that from a legless lizard...How hilarious.]

I growled back. Does this darn bastard dare to mock me? I admit I am weak now but my dignity as a Supreme being and monarch still remains.

[What use is pride not backed up by power? Isnʼt it just arrogance and stupidity then?]

*Sss...*

This snake is vile and deceptive. And cunning...He knows what Iʼm thinking.

[What is your identity?]

Even though I could only see itʼs eyes...I could feel it smiling menacingly.

[The Jade Snake. It shouldnʼt ring a bell to a dead supreme like you.]

[...]

I was left speechless.

That name did not ring a bell at all...

[Kekeke...it shouldnʼt.]

Heʼs getting in my head.

My head is hurting. Why am I experiencing a headache?

I see scenes of mass destruction. Worlds destroyed in the blink of an eye...

Uh...

My head hurts.

[What did you do to me you legless lizard.]

It laughed back.

[Nothing, Just casualty filling up holes.]

[...what?]

I see scenes of a man dressed in vile black armor and holding a spear of Chaos turning worlds to dust...turning entire systems to ash...

Ugh...Supreme Beings fall at a single movement of his spear...UGH!

[Enjoying it?]

{khhh....}

I growled back. What Illusions is this bastard showing me?

[Iʼm not doing anything...]

*Sss....*

I can feel it slithering around my body...Constricting it.

who is that man? Who possesses such fearsome strength?

His black hair and abyssal eyes...are frightening.

The snake is right next to me now.

[Enjoying it?]

He repeated in my ear...Its tongue releases a mesmerizing sound.

[Look up above.]

With those words, he disappeared. The Snake disappeared and the surroundings disappeared.

I was now in the middle of a ruined city. Even though the structures were destroyed one could still see the magnificent city this one once was.

...wait.

This city...I know this city.

*RUMBLE*

The dead bodies of dragons...Elves...dwarves and other races...

This is...the Dragonic Capital...The Impenetrable...

This must be an Illusion! Dragondor can never fall! It is the capital of the DRAGONS!

Even our capital, the Capital of Godbeasts, Godspine cannot compare to it...

This is an illusion!

I thought...But then I saw something which made my entire body shiver with fear.

Up in the black skies...was A Black Dragon unlike any other. Its long body swimming in the dark clouds was...massive. Those abyssal scales seemed to draw all light and hope within them...devouring each and every last trace.

ʼI canʼt move...ʼ

Another Dragon fell from the skies, Half its body gone...

ʼAloaris....impossible.ʼ

That was the king of dragons...No one is his match...Impossible.

I am not even a candle to Aloaris...but that mighty dragon fell just like that?

thing.

The Black Dragon is unscathed...Donʼt tell me.

The combined forces of Dragondor were unable to even injure that thing.

Suddenly...My entire body felt an enormous amount of pressure.

Ah...Itʼs focused on me now...

”...Gulp...”

Iʼm afraid...Iʼm scared...Just by its gaze?

Its massive body started to descend...the power of chaos surrounding it.

Can I do nothing but wait for my demise? As it descends upon me?

”No.”

Is this a final bravado of mine? I...I know I canʼt do anything...No.

I am A supreme being. I have my dignity.

Even with my trembling body, I yelled.

”Come!”

The Winds assaulted the mighty dragon descending upon me, I gathered the power of thunder around me and unleashed it all upon that vile dragon.

I know this will not do anything...But I still cling to hope.

Do something. Please.

Do Something...Please/

Please...

The power of lightning unleashed itself on the black dragon, right on itʼs face...And then there was silence.

Amidst the dust...I spoke warily.

”...did it work?”

And just As I had relaxed...The dragonʼs deadly maw appeared before me, several times larger than even me...

My eyes widened in fear as I was about to be devoured and then...Just then.

”Festul, You okay?”

I heard Alexʼs voice..and I was back.

I could see the entire group...even him staring at me.

[Yes...I was just dozing off.]

I lied. To hide my fear.

As I looked at that boy...I wondered...

Just who...no What was that Black Dragon?

Was it...him?
