I Received System to Become Dragonborn

Elis's eyes opened so wide that it seemed as if her eyeballs will pop up at any moment. Then she looked at Aurdis and then blinked her eyes quickly.

"P-Princes..." Elis muttered in a dreamy voice. Her brain seemed unable to process what she heard, felt, and what reaction she should give.

The combination of the words 'Elf' and 'Princess' in the same sentence was too much for her heart and brain to handle. As a result, she just stared dumbly at Aurdis for a few moments.

Being stared at in such a manner was common for Aurdis, so she only smiled gently.

"Yeah, she's a princess. What do you think?" Lt. Boartusk asked.

Billy turned his head for a moment to see how things going. He also overheard the conversation between Lt. Boartusk and Elis.

Billy saw Elis silently staring at Aurdis with wide eyes and a gaping mouth. She was like someone who was hit by a certain curse.

Erend on the other hand felt an uncomfortable feeling because they used Aurdis to persuade Elis. But if he looked at Elis' reaction, he thought that Lt. Boartusk's way of persuasion might work.

So Erend decided to keep quiet. If Aurdis felt angry because they were taking advantage of her they could apologize later.

"I... I don't know..." Elis said. "Before, I wanted to know and do a lot of things. But once I found out there was Elf Princess in front of me, I didn't know what I wanted anymore. All of this was too... Too..." Elis struggled to continue her words.

Lt. Boartusk sighed as if trying to be patient. Then he said: "You can have plenty of time to do your research later. Maybe we can take you to the world of the Elves."

Hearing Lt. Boartusk's words, Elis's eyes sparkled at him. "Is that true?"

"Yes!" Lt. Boartusk nodded his head.

Erend and Billy cast their gazes on Lt. Boartusk. They know that Lt. Boartusk didn't have any power to say that just like them.

But he could nod firmly as if he had that kind of power.

Erend looked at Aurdis and saw that she didn't seem to mind. At least on the surface.

Elis bit her lip. Trying to consider the turmoil in her head. "Okay!"

Not even a minute later Elis nodded.

Lt. Boartusk smiled. "So do you want to help us?" Elis looked at Lt. Boartusk with calculating eyes. Then she shook her head as if to dispel any remaining doubts inside.

"I'll help you," Elis said. "In exchange, you have to take me back to that fantasy world."

"Don't worry. If you keep your promise, we will keep our promise too," Lt. Boartusk said.

"Alright, we have to hurry," Elis said.

Then she stood up and walked towards the door. But before she went far, Lt. Boartusk stopped her.

"Wait, why do we have to hurry?"

"Ah!" Elis seemed to realize something very important. "I haven't told you yet. LTC. Ibis and LTC. Coil intends to arrest your families."

Hearing Elis's answer Lt. Boartusk, Billy, and Erend widened their eyes. It was as if a huge wave of lightning had struck them.

"Oh, shit! It turned out that my hunch was right!" Billy cursed in a low voice. "Hurry up and do what you want to do!"

Elis nodded and then left the room.

"Damn it, they really did it," Erend mumbled with his fists clenched.

The room was silent for a few moments. Aurdis saw the faces of the three of them which contained various emotions. Fear, anxiety, and anger.

Yes of course. Knowing that their family was in danger must have scared the three of them.

Nobody said anything. Even Billy who usually made certain comments was now silent.

Not long after, they were startled by a knock on the door. But then they were relieved that it was only Elis, who came with a pile of documents.

"Luckily no one woke up," Elis said, setting the document down on the table.

Lt. Boartusk immediately asked Aurdis to open the Portal and invited Elis to go inside.

Elis initially hesitated and stared at Portal without blinking.

"C'mon!" But then Billy pushed her from behind. And they all entered the Portal.

Once they exited the Portal and returned to the room, Lt. Boartusk immediately asked Elis to explain the contents of the documents he brought. At the same time saying that she had to show the most important documents as soon as possible.

Elis nodded and got to work. She also knew that she had to hurry because their family was in danger.

Meanwhile, Erend took Aurdis out of the room.

"Hey, Uhmm... I'm really sorry. It seems the lieutenant decided on his own," Erend said with a regretful look on his face.

Aurdis smiled. "It's alright. I said I would help you guys, right?"

"But...is that really okay? We brought one more person to this place. A human. What if Aerchon and the other Elves in this palace find out?"

"Don't worry about that. I brought you guys so I'll ensure your safety and comfort," Aurdis said. "Think of it as my attempt to atone for our mistakes."

Erend looked at Aurdis. How can this girl be so nice? She even said she wanted to make up for the mistakes made by her stupid big brother.

"Thank you," Erend said.

Aurdis nodded with a smile.

"I'll be going while you guys finish your business," Aurdis said. Then she turned and started walking away.

Erend looked at the back of Aurdis who was walking away in the dark corridor.

They were really lucky to have met Aurdis. Otherwise, they would be dead by now. Or worse, being a prisoner on false charges without being able to do anything.

Erend goes back into the room and helps them to find the important documents.

Hours passed without them noticing. Suddenly the sun had risen and its rays entered their bedroom window. Erend, Billy, Lt. Boartusk, and Elis sighed tiredly.

"With this, we can clear our names," Lt. Boartusk said.

They took a short break and then went back to work. The four of them worked tirelessly in compiling documents and recording Elis' testimony with Anna's cell phone. All the documents were photographed and then put together in a file folder.

That digital folder then will be distributed throughout the Republic of Ascaria once they get back there and gain access to the internet.

There was one thing that bothered Erend when he saw Elis so easily deciding to help them for such a huge matter like this.

"Aren't you worried about your family?" Erend asked.

"Oh, of course not. I don't have a family anymore," Elis replied lightly as if it was no big deal.

Erend, Billy, and Lt. Boartusk immediately stopped their activity and cast a glance at Elis.

"That's the reason why I can make decisions quickly," Elis said. "I immediately agreed with LTC. Ibis and LTC. Coil invitation to get involved in a secret government project, and I also immediately agreed with your invitation."

Now it all makes sense.

"I got nothing to lose," Elis added with a smile.

No one knew what that smile meant. And she continued to work.

Erend, Billy, and Lt. Boartusk felt sorry for Elis. But once they saw that she seemed to have no problem with it, they decided not to talk about it anymore.

About half an hour later they finished and breathed a sigh of relief at each other.

"I'm going to bed first." Elis immediately climbed onto Erend's bed and closed her eyes.

"Is she really asleep?" Billy asked in disbelief.

"It seems so," said Erend who was looking at her.

"We should get some sleep now too." Lt. Boartusk said as he stretched his body and yawned widely.

After that, he also climbed into his bed. Erend decided to sleep on Billy's bed. They finally fell asleep after a long night.

Saeldir was in his private room. This room is very spacious to be occupied by one person. But the existence of hundreds of shelves that strayed thousands of books filled the room.

Not only that, various kinds of equipment and Magic artifacts were scattered in various places. Makes this room seem to run out of space that can be used.

Now Saeldir was carrying a book about the whereabouts of the Dragonborn. Saeldir already memorized all the history of Dragon and Dragonborn.

But he decided to read again after what happened with Erend that time.

"In the end, it's the same." Saeldir sighed and closed the huge black leather-bound book.

He didn't find anything different in his memory after rereading the book. Saeldir was just curious as to what power was behind Dragon Erend's power. Because that power is so terrifying and mysterious.

A cube-shaped crystal was floating in front of Saeldir. The crystal was ten centimeters long and translucent.

The crystal serves as an 'alarm' that will notify Saeldir if any magic shield in the palace is damaged.

And now suddenly the crystal glowed red and vibrated. Indicates that there is damage to the Magic shield.

He snapped his fingers then ten birds made of light appeared around him.

Saeldir said something and the birds of light shot out to alert the guards at ten different points.
