I Received System to Become Dragonborn

Aurdis' eyes were full of sadness. She kept spreading her eyes but all he saw was despair.

Several Elves wept and sat down on their knees. The sound of their cries filled the bloody air.

Suddenly Aurdis stood up and walked somewhere without saying anything to them.

"Where do you go?" Erend asked.

Aurdis still didn't answer and just kept walking.

"Come with her," Saeldir said.

After hearing that, without thinking, Erend immediately followed Aurdis and walked a little bit behind her.

When Erend turned his head, he saw that there were already tears coming out of Aurdis' eyes. Yet she didn't sob like the Elves around her.

Instead, Aurdis' blue eyes were as sharp as ice blades ready to stab their target.

Erend didn't say anything and just followed Aurdis beside her.

Not long after, Aurdis arrived at the place where she had left the Dark Elf before.

Erend could finally see why Aurdis had come here with those vengeful eyes.

The Dark Elf who noticed Aurdis' arrival widened his eyes. He didn't know what to feel.

Should he be relieved that soon he will be free from the snares that bind him? But he also knew what Aurdis wanted to do when she came back to him.

She just wanted to continue her torment. So the Dark Elf could only give up again in despair.

Aurdis' steps got quicker the closer she got.

Finally, she was right in front of the Dark Elf and then kicked him in the face once.

*DUAGGGH!*

The Dark Elf's head was knocked back by the kick. But Aurdis didn't stop there. She immediately strangled the Dark Elf's neck.

"(Laston run away,)" she said. "(Where he went?)"

The Dark Elf did not answer for a few moments. That made Aurdis even angrier so she tightened her grip.

"Urghh..." groaned the Dark Elf.

"(Say it!)" Aurdis snapped at him.

"(I...I don't know...)"

Aurdis of course did not believe those words.

"(You don't know?)" Aurdis released her stranglehold and then stood up.

After that, she created a flame in her hand and threw it at the Dark Elf's feet.

*WOSSHHH!*

"AAAAAARGH!"

The Dark Elf screams as his feet were burned. It echoed in the walls of the buildings around them.

Erend even slightly scrunched up his legs because of the scream.

Aurdis looks terrible now. Erend never knew that Aurdis could act like this.

However, Erend didn't blame Aurdis.

This Dark Elf must have conspired with Laston to make the palace like this.

Erend doesn't know who turned the Elves into those terrible creatures. But whoever it was between the two of them, it didn't matter.

That action could indeed trigger Aurdis' anger rising at this moment.

So, Erend didn't stop Aurdis and just let her be.

'He was unlucky enough to be caught alive by Aurdis.' Erend thought.

Aurdis extinguished the fire and asked again.

"(Tell me a place Laston might go!)" Aurdis said.

The Dark Elf was still gasping for air from the pain. But Aurdis quickly healed his leg again before he bled out or passed out from the pain.

Erend once again felt a little shocked seeing that.

"(I'll burn you longer this time if you don't talk,)" Aurdis said while creating flames in her hands again.

"(Ozynk Temple!)"

Before Aurdis sent the flames to his feet, the Dark Elf shouted a place name.

Aurdis stopped and extinguished the fire. After that, she lifted the Dark Elf with her Magic so that he was floating in the air.

As soon as she turned around, Aurdis was surprised to see Erend's presence.

"You're following me?" Aurdis asked.

"Yes." Erend nodded. "I have to take keep an eye on you."

Aurdis blinked a few times. "You mean you saw what happened just now?"

Erend nodded again. Aurdis bit her lips and then looked the other way. She appears agitated or rather embarrassed.

Erend snorted with a faint smile. "You don't need to be embarrassed. What you did just now is completely reasonable."

Aurdis seemed to relax more after hearing that from Erend.

"Well, it was this Dark Elf who cast the curse of the Undead on the Palace Elves," Aurdis said.

"Oh, then maybe you didn't torture him enough," Erend said.

Aurdis looked at Erend. "You are right."

After that Aurdis walked with the Dark Elf hovering behind her with Erend beside her.

They returned to where Saeldir and Aerchon were.

Saeldir already knew who Aurdis had brought. He was even a bit surprised when he found out that the Dark Elf was still alive.

"(Laston is in Ozynk Temple,)" Aurdis said. "(I don't know if that's true or not. That's what came out of this Dark Elf's mouth.)"

"(We have to check it as soon as possible,)" Saeldir replied.

"(I will go with the Forest Elves,)" Aurdis said.

"(You're too tired. Let the Forest Elves look for it.)"

"(I won't be able to sleep well if I haven't seen Laston die with my own eyes,)" Aurdis said with clear firmness.

Saeldir stared at Aurdis for a few moments before finally speaking.

"(Okay. I can't stop you.)"

After that Audis put the Dark Elf in front of Saeldir.

"(I will recover in a few minutes. Then I will try to handle everything,)" Saeldir said.

Aurdis nodded. Then turned to Erend.

"I'll be leaving in a bit. You can return to your home now," Aurdis said.

"To find Laston?" Erend asked.

Aurdis answered with a nod.

"I'll come with you," Erend said. "It's fine. I also can't be calm if he's not dead yet."

Before Aurdis could say anything Erend had already said his intention.

Aurdis couldn't protest any further. Besides, Erend looks fine and didn't suffer any injuries.

The two of them than met the Forest Elf squad leaders. A few minutes later Dolthon, Harnon, Gastion, and Callonor gathered together with Aurdis and Erend.

Aurdis said that they should go to Ozynk Temple immediately because there is a high possibility that Laston go there.

Because the distance was far enough on foot, Aurdis said that they could ride the Unicorn to go there.
