The Villain's Story

Chapter 620: [620] The gate.



The Arctic Titan hummed its mechanical tune, the sound of its gears, as it moved forth, undisturbed by anything in this long stretch of blue ice.

The ice below them, although a bridge, was like the ground itself. Alan flew down once, trying to reach the ground below, but the ice was like a partition. It wasn't like an ordinary bridge.

Well, it was his fault for expecting the normal in this scenario.

Relishing in the feeling of his body enjoying the environment, he returned to the top of the Arctic Titan and admired the frozen snowflakes.

Some were as large as mountains, while the smallest was the size of a five-story building. Each held an absurd amount of Mana within it, as if the Mana around the world wasn't enough.

These snowflakes were frozen in time, they did not move at all. Alan also found out that the cold here was much lower than what he had expected, giving worth to Festul's words.

"Lanesha must have prepared this."

Although the others still felt a considerable chill, he found the cold on the home of the frost dragons to be... Lacking.

He had long since taken his shirt off, and now wore only a simple black vest. He wanted as much of his skin to be embraced by the world.

The Arctic Titan moved on for what seemed like an eternity in this cold abyss, as they passed by countless snowflakes.

Alan soon fell asleep on top of the Arctic Titan, finding comfort in this place. He fell asleep so quick and defenselessly that it was a surprise to everyone inside the vehicle.

[Leave him be, that kid is probably enjoying this.]

Festul's said, as he watched Alexander drink hot chocolate with interest. He had already been amazed by the quality of Earth's food, so his interest had been peaked. Unfortunately for the former supreme Being, Alexander refused to give it to him, afraid that it would poison him. Olivia, Sabrina, Alice and Emma all looked outside the windows to see the spectacle of the snowflakes, and Maxwell drove the vehicle with glee.

Kazikato remained motionless in the corner of the room inside the Arctic Titan, looking aimlessly at the ceiling.

Edward was doing push-ups, in order to prepare himself. He was feeling 'uneasy' the entire time.

Hours passed, and soon everyone got bored, until Festul, Alexander, and Kazikato's eyes perked up, and they became filled with worry and astonishment.

Sabrina and the rest noticed, besides Maxwell, who was still in the cockpit.

[Don't look outside, close the shutters, and don't dare to even try understanding the gaze.]

They listened and closed the shutters, although they still didn't understand what he meant in the latter parts of his warning.

Olivia went to warn Maxwell, and Sabrina asked.

"Alexander, do you mind... Ordering your spirit to explain a bit?"

She also had her spirit, the dark cat, resting on her shoulder, but unfortunately it couldn't speak. However, even it was scared.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

[You will feel it soon.]

Those words made everyone tense, and they understood them soon enough.

They felt as if they were being watched, by not one, but multiple, countless gazes.

Each with power, each with authority.

[They came to meet their prince.]

Festul remarked, and got close to the heater to take a nap. Unbothered by those gazes. Everyone else knew what they were now.

"The frost dragons..."

Alice muttered, and everyone gulped. They could feel the gazes of countless dragons locked onto the vehicle as it continued moving forth.

It seemed even the machine was tense. Alan had long since woken up, and although he too could feel the gazes and discern them more accurately, he couldn't see the beings they belonged too.

The environment around the bridge, disregarding the snowflakes, was like a fog that obscured everything. Nevertheless, he could feel their gazes focus on him more than anything else.

He pretended to pay them no need, even though he was incredibly nervous. Finally, after what it seemed like an eternity of travel, he saw something else...

The end of this bridge.

The silhouette of a mountain, so vast and big that it appeared to be a wall, appeared in front of the cohort and the Arctic Titan. Maxwell gulped as he raced forth, and Alan continues observing the mountain.

On second thought... It did seem to be a wall, one so big that he could not see the top or the ends, even with the help of his eyes. As they got closer, he could see the slopes of the mountain, once again, they didn't seem like an ordinary slope.

But as they got closer, Alan realized that it wasn't a mountain, and neither did it possess a slope. The 'slope' was actually a symbol, an engraving. Once, he couldn't see in full detail due to how large the wall was.

The mountain was actually a wall.

And now, he could hear things.

[So that is the prince?]

[He bears the resemblance of her majesty.]

[Lanekia is listening to him.]

And more, each discussing only him, The voices were so loud, but also quiet. As if the dragons wanted him to hear them, but not at the same time.

'... Each one is above the Epic Rank.'

All the dragons whose gazes he could feel, each possessed enough strength to decimate Earth

a hundred times, easily.

'Can the others hear them, too?'

Alan wondered if the rest could hear the dragon's as well inside the Arctic titan, It should be the case, but who knew? His kin did possess powers beyond understanding.

He didn't know that the ones inside could also hear them, but not all of them. Maxwell, Alice, Edward and Emma couldn't hear them as well, they could only hear an annoying whistling sound. Sabrina, and Olivia, could only hear a few words. Whilst Alexander and Kazikato could

hear everything.

[The son of her deceased highness is also here...]

[I smell a mut, A godbeast?]

[Quiet.] One voice made all the other voices disappear. Except a few...younger ones.

[That's the prince!]

[What is that thing he is on? A beast?]

The voice failed to make these quiet, Alan could sense that the new entries were of the Epic

rank, some even SSS, and lower.

'Children?'

These children were dragged away by the other Elder Dragons, although they were not happy

about it at the least. Only one voice remained.

[Enter the gate, Prince.]

They were now in front of the wall, which was actually a gate. This dragon's voice could be

heard by everyone clearly, and Alan couldn't even try to guess what rank he was. Only that he

was...ancient.

Everyone exited the vehicle, not out of their own will. An invisible force acted on them,

forcing them to leave the Arctic Titan, and stand on the bridge, in front of the 'gate'.

A deafening sound of ice cracking apart rang out, and a partition, as black as night, appeared

in the middle of the gate, and it opened inward.

Alan could only see an abyssal maw, and he would be lying if he said he was not afraid.

The ancient dragon's voice resounded once more, forcing everyone besides Kazikato and Alan

to kneel.

[Enter, Prince. The queen awaits.]
