Twin Reincarnation: Epics Of The Worldline

Chapter 266 266 Dragon before dragon

[El's POV: ]

The forest area of this island was vast and there was a sea surrounding the island, of course so there was a beach as well.

The island itself was verrrrrrry large so, there were a few mountains here as well.

We were on the way to one of those mountain paths that was home to one of the few <SSS> rank creatures present on this planet, and something that actually just lived there.

It wasn't part of any kind of test, for most of the time it wasn't, so this island was just her home.

She lived here happily, watching over the special cute creatures of this island, passing her days in peace like most of the dragons usually do. And she liked living this way.

'She didn't like associating with the 'challengers' who were here to take the test of the person who created this place, and since all this was created even before she was born, she didn't really have any right to harm any of the mortals who wanted to take the test and do what they were supposed to.'

She was a forest dweller, a rare [Forest dragon] who lived in nature, and a kind that becomes part of this very nature after one point of their lives.

'She lived around here, the common creatures knew that fact and avoided this particular road.'

Only the special, rarer creatures ventured in this parts of forest, and though we weren't natives of this place or the time period this entire place used to be part of, we were daring and going into this parts.

Something that my dumb Cary did not like at all.

[[ Master! I am telling you for the thirtieth time but this is cheating! This is cheating and even if you use me to convince the dragon to take you to the top of that place, it will still be considered your loss!

All of this would be invalid if you do it like this! ]]

He had been shouting in my head from the moment I told him about how I was going to use that cute dragon with his help.

He wanted to play fairly and win with my own skills and talent… why the fuck would I ever do that when there is a better option right in front of me?

"We are almost there so be ready. She is a pureblood and though her childhood with her mother was pretty good, she passed away a long time ago, and this would be her first time meeting someone of her kind."

She was the most powerful creature on this island after the creature that maintains the great storm outside to protect this testing site from those bastard gods. And since she was much older, bigger, and more like a proper dragon than this cute little thing of mine, she was the only being that could help me with our bet.

"Alright. This should be the place."

The forest of this island was thick and deep.

The variety of wildlife on one side, the kind of trees, plants, and greens present in this place were all so useful that the ones we can find in the outside world were practically useless things for any kind of use.

But then again, most of the things we use for most of the things we do are purchased from Raz and are much better than anything we can find on this planet.

"Hmmm… should I go call her?"

Around us were tall trees with their roots deeply planted in the ground. And since they were old, they had created a unique ecosystem that we only see in the old rainforests.

The sound of insects and birds that resided high on these trees was auditable right now, and, truthfully, this was a pretty fun place.

[[ Master… we shouldn't intrude on someone else's place like this. This isn't right. ]]

He was saying shit like that even though he knew I cared nothing about that. Why was he being like this today?

"Shut up and look around. See if you can find a giant ass bunch of trees anywhere. We are finding an uneven shape that looks something like-"

[[ A little triangular with three large dark green horses? With deep green glowing eyes that resemble light rays falling on a giant rock or something? ]]

He stole the exact words from my mouth that I was about to say while looking at the other side of where we were standing.

And right when I turned around, a breath of warm air blew from the direction I was looking at.

[ "You, human. You should not be here." ]

A deep voice saturated with pure Mana resonated throughout the forest area, and even though the intensity of the voice was so strong, no creature was startled by this voice.

[ "Go back, human-" ]

"Oh so you were here~. Hello Faunus~!"

[ "Hmmm? Did you just call me by my given name, mortal?" ]

The trees of this forest were awfully tall and thick already so I looked like a matchstick against them.

Cary looked even smaller since he was just a little cute dummy. But the one before us was different.

[ "Who… are you?" ]

The great forest dragon of the shrine of Chiragya was born from the mother whose mother used to be a friend of the first conqueror.

She had promised to look after this whole test area and this forest to be specific so even after she passed away, her child carried out the same duty, and though she did not specifically tell her daughter, the one before us, what she had to do, since she was a being born here with little knowledge of the outside world, she instinctively only had this forest as her everything.

"Who I am does not matter, Faunus. Don't you want to know who the one floating beside me is? Don't tell me you can't recognize who, or what this small looking being besides me."

Towering above the colossal trees, this majestic creature's three mighty horns rivalled the old trees of the forest, her ginormous body reminiscent of a colossal mountain in the heart of the woods moved in an unrestrained manner, creating an illusion that a mountain had been moved.

Scales, resembling the earthy tones of moss, created an armour that glistens in the dappled sunlight filtering through the canopy. Her immense wings, spanning wide like the branches of ancient trees, cast a protective shadow over the vibrant ecosystem beneath.

She was surprised that I knew her name, however, when she looked closely at me, and at the small and insignificant looking creature beside me, her magical orb like eyes filled with that unique ethereal glow widened in surprise.

[ "Y-you! You are a dragon like me! And that divinity… that dignity… that pureness…" ]

All dragons gained knowledge about the world and the Worldline naturally as they grew up.

The knowledge about various elements of the world, the truths, as well as secrets of the world that only their kind are allowed to know come to them as they grow up.

They know things that they are supposed to know and things that all dragons in the world know naturally.

'Few of which are divinity and its importance, as well as the hierarchy of dragons and the pureness of their bloodline.'

Dragons, by nature, have to respect the ones in higher ranks than them or at least, according to the situation, listen to them and their requests.

They cannot speak disrespectfully when in the presence of the higher rankings dragons. So… what would happen if a mere pureblood was standing before a dragonlord?

[ "For what reason an esteemed being like you could be here, my lord?" ]

Being respectful was only natural, but as someone who was pure and untouched by the outside world, she knew the etiquette as well so… she was bowing before us now.

'A real big dragon was bowing her head before me for the first time in this life, keke. How fun~.'

She was cool and huge~. Just like how a dignified dragon should be.

Completely different from this dumb arrogant bastard cute little useless thing of mine.

[[ Ummmm… what do I do now, stupid master? ]]

[[ "Act high and mighty like your true self. Exactly like you would if you were meeting a lower rank species like her out in the wild for the first time.

You are a goddamn dragonlord, Cary. Why do I have to tell you everything?" ]]

I needed this grown up dragon to fly all the way over to the top of the shrine, and she was the only existence that should be capable of actually doing it on this island.

'Everything on the island was restricted by the system since it was a 'test site' so I myself can't directly fly all the way over there.'

Using Cary's powers to lessen the system restrictions will cause a lot of problems since we needed the system intect for the later use, so the only way to fly there was with this big pretty resident dragon who had the least restrictions on her.

'I myself have never tried this method so Lucy would only think there was a possibility I would do something as crazy as this. However, theoretically, with her help, this was possible.'

I can reach the top even before he is done with the third floor and wait for him there.

But for that, Cary will have to convince her to help us-.

[< "Your greetings sound insincere, young girl! Has your birth-giver never taught you how to greet your superiors, hun?!" >]

"The hell?"

Instead of accepting her greeting like I thought he would, he started cursing at her with his deep Mana voice in his original [Dragon tongue] which was so powerful this entire part of the forest was shaken to its core.

"Why did you do that dumbass?"

Thankfully the words were directed towards the mountainous adult dragon before us or else this entire area would be underwater by now.

[[ What do you mean stupid master? Didn't you tell me to act like I would before a young one like her? I am doing what you told me to! ]]

He really was the dumbest dragon I have seen in my entire life. Both my lives actually.

Why did he have to go overboard like that and shout-

[ "I… I apologise! Lord… Oh great lord! This uneducated fool has made a terrible mistake!" ]

She stomped her humongous head on the ground before us while being careful of not causing any earthquakes. And the way she replied just now…

"Wait, it worked?"

It was obvious she was a sub.

If half of her face wasn't covered in green moss, I would have even clicked a photo of her embarrassed face.

'Those few words from him practically changed her, lol…'

But if it was like this, what I wanted is going to be much easier than the liberal approach.
