I Received System to Become Dragonborn



Aerchon exchanged glances with Saeldir, while Billy exchanged glances with Adrien. Their gazes indicated one thing, and that is confusion.

"Did he just call Erend his brother?" Billy asked in a muttering tone to Adrien.

"I heard that too," Adrien replied.

"We have to talk to him. Can you call him?" Aurdis repeated her words as the man looked suspiciously.

"Wait." The man then disappeared from the rift. Aurdis, Billy, Adrien, Aerchon, and Saeldir waited in curiosity and anticipation. About a minute later the man's face reappeared in the rift. "Here he is."

Afterward, Erend's face appeared next to the man with a look of relief.

"We don't have much time." Erend wasted no time in saying what he had to say.

Although Aurdis intended to ask about his condition, she canceled her intention because she felt a rush from Erend's voice.

"Arty and my mother were kidnapped by a creature from the Chaos Realm and we are currently looking for her. Sorry for not contacting you earlier. I wasn't able to. Oh, Captain! Billy! I know you can take care of yourselves.

"I don't know what happened there. But it looks like the creatures intend to do something and they have managed to get me out of there."

"Erend, actually your presence there is something good," Saeldir said. "We need you to do something over there. You have to keep those creatures there, then we will cut off their access to this world."

"You can do that?" Erend asked with a slightly surprised expression.

"Yes, we have found a way," Aurdis was the one who answered this time.

"That's good. Just leave the matter here to us. What should we do?" Erend asked.

Aurdis explained to Erend what he should do there. And because Eccar was also listening, he already felt that he became part of this plan.

"I can do that," Eccar said lightly.

"Who are you exactly?" Aerchon, who had been staring at Eccar who looked suspicious in his eyes, now finally asked in a sharp tone.

"Don't worry about him. He is my new friend," Erend said with a faint smile.

"New friend? In the Chaos Realm?" Aerchon could not help but continued to frown suspiciously.

"Yes. We must immediately proceed to the next stage. We have wasted too much time," Erend said.

"Erend, we can't contact you from here," Aurdis said.

"You are right." Erend pondered over the matter. then said. "We'll be the ones to contact you when our part here is done. Until then, you guys better stop doing anything worthwhile just yet."

Realizing that was their only choice, Aurdis nodded. "Be careful," she said.

Erend nodded. "You too."

After that, the rift which was their first communication today was closed. According to what Erend said, they just had to wait until Erend contacted them again to be able to actually act.

However, they had an unexpected guest. A car stopped in front of the house, two people came out of the car.

"Are you sure this is the house?" Conrad asked while scanning around Erend's house.

"Based on the database, this is the right place," said Thomas. "This house was given to Sergeant Drake after what he did to stop the war with the Elves."

Conrad didn't say anything about it. But his face turned into a grimace. The war happened because of that, so Conrad felt like he wanted to avoid that topic as much as possible. Especially when you want to talk to people who were directly affected by the war.

"There's a car here," said Thomas, looking at the car parked haphazardly in the driveway. "Someone's inside."

"I don't know why they are acting stupid. Soon the president will issue a search warrant for them, how come they don't know?" said Conrad.

"Let's go in and give them a warning." Thomas walked towards the house first and Conrad followed behind him.

Inside the house, Billy and Adrien who were peeking from the second-floor window exchanged glances. They immediately ran to the second floor with the Elves when they heard a car coming.

"What are they doing here?" Billy asked. "They don't look like they want to catch us."

"Yeah. If the orders were to arrest us, it would be the special forces who would be coming," Adrien said. "Maybe they want to do something else."

Adrien and Billy told the Elves who had come and then told them to hide their whereabouts. After that Adrien and Billy went downstairs to meet the two of them.

"The person who stole the key is here? You said you already handled him!" Aerchon said, his voice full of suppressed anger.

"We just need to remove his Magic ability and it's done," Aurdis replied in an even tone. She stared at Aerchon, waiting for him to say something else that she would eventually ignore.

Aerchon just snorted angrily then looked away. On the other hand, Aurdis felt relieved because she didn't have to deal with Aerchon's anger.

Downstairs, Billy opens the front door after Thomas knocks.

"Can I help you?" Billy asked.

"We know what happened at the presidential palace last night," Thomas said. "Can we come in?"

"Sure."

They both went inside the house and sat in the living room. Without wasting time Thomas and Conrad immediately stated their purpose for coming here.

"As you all know, I am the one who brought Magic to this world and started the experiment," Conrad began. "The experiment was stopped due to the attack from the Elves and they removed my Magic power. But I don't want to go into that too deep now as there is a more important matter."

Billy and Adrien didn't look surprised; however, they exchanged confused looks but decided to wait for what the two of them said next.

"What happened in this world is the awakening of Magic power. I can sense Magic again because this all happened even though my Magic hasn't returned," said Conrad. "And last night I felt a large use of Magic from the direction of the presidential palace. So Thomas and I ordered someone to hack into security cameras at the presidential palace.

"What we found was very shocking. President Julius seems to have been possessed by something and killed his personal bodyguards and butlers.

"But I saw you two managed to escape from that place. So we decided to look for you. We also saw Sergeant Drake go into the president's office and didn't come out until then."

Conrad was silent after finishing his explanation. Then he asked again. "Where's Sergeant Drake's family?"

Adrien and Billy once again exchanged glances.

"We don't know if we can trust you yet. What do you want to do actually?" he asked.

Conrad sighed. "I knew you would say that, Captain. We know that what possessed the president and caused all the chaos in this world was something evil.

"Based on what we found with great difficulty, you, Sergeant Brook, and Sergeant Drake have some kind of ability. Maybe... you guys also have Magic power after spending time with the Elves back then."

Adrien and Billy widened their eyes in shock. While Conrad and Thomas looked at them with a satisfied heart. Seeing Adrien and Billy's reaction, they knew that what they said was true.

"We have seen from the CCTV camera at the suicide bombing site at that time, we saw that only the two of you were still alive in one piece when the others were torn to pieces," said Thomas.

"Alright," Adrien said. "We can talk about that another time. Now let's focus on more important matters. Will you help us?"

"We are planning to do that. But to be able to help we have to know what the problem really is," Conrad said.

Adrien and Billy started to tell about Erend and his family who were kidnapped by creatures from the Chaos Realm. Adrien and Billy already knew the plan that the Elves wanted to carry out, so now that Conrad and Thomas wanted to help, Adrien and Billy intended to take advantage of them.

Adrien and Billy just gave what they needed to know. That is if they have to try to keep President Julius from doing whatever he wants to do while they try to get Erend and his family out of the Chaos Realm.

Adrien and Billy also decided to say that they both really could use Magic. Conrad looked like he wanted to ask about how they could get the Magic, but Thomas immediately stopped him because they had to focus on this matter first.

"We will tell General Lennard about this," said Thomas. "We'll be in touch with you as soon as we have any developments to discuss."

Adrien and Billy nodded.

"Thank you for your cooperation," Adrien said.

"We still have a lot to talk about after this, Captain," Conrad replied.

"Sure."

Conrad and Thomas left the house in a hurry while Adrien and Billy watched their departure with complicated eyes.

"No need to worry about later," Adrien who knew what Billy was thinking said first. "For now, we'll let them do their job there and hope they can convince General Lennard to take the president into custody."

"Understood, sir," Billy said.
