My Dragon System

"Images of the future?"

Ray had his suspicions before after last time, but the vision this time was a lot clearer. It had shown that Ray had taken his army and decided to face the shadow plague on their own turf and in the end, Gary and Monk were on the enemy's side. But there were so many questions, who were the two new allies fighting by his side?

But finally, it seemed like Ray would get some answers as for the first time the Divine being was speaking to him.

"Did the Divine being speak to you!" Lenny said excitedly, "It's a miracle."

"Why did you show me this?" Ray asked.

"Do you remember the vision you were shown last time?"

The last vision Ray had received was a future where the Shadow had taken over the Alure kingdom. There was no life and the land had been replaced by shadow beasts.

"Because of you, the future has already changed, and you can change that again. I am no longer safe here in Kelberg. I know you have many questions but my time is short. I will turn myself into a small crystal which looks just like any other beast core. In the vision you saw you must find the man who stood by your side and held me in his hands. Give him the crystal and finally, find the last piece of me in Roland and only then can I answer all the questions you have."

"Why should I do your bidding, I'm not your tool to be used!" Ray said in anger.

"I know you will complete this task because you are curious, you want to find out what happened to you and I promise I will give you those answers. Before I wasn't so sure about you but now I am. You are a changed man Sen, you care for those around you so you will do whatever you can to protect them."

After the Divine being had finished saying what she wanted to say, the glowing Crystal started to Shrink until it was the same size as a regular beast crystal. It floated its way over to Ray, until it eventually fell down into his hands.

The crystal no longer glowed and seemed just like any other crystal.

Ray's blood was boiling slightly. He felt like he was being used by the Divine being, she was getting everything she wanted while he had to run around looking for answers. There were too many questions on Ray's mind.

Was she truly the Witch that he fought with as a dragon?

Was she the one who had turned him into a human?

Just what was the Shadow plague?

And finally, why was he involved in all of this?

The fact that she knew Ray's dragon name meant she had to have known him in the past. Ray then thought back to what the Wyvern had said, saying that the Witch and the Divine being were the same person.

In the end, he had no choice but to do the Divine beings bidding. For now, he would do as he was told but when he finally got answers he would no longer care, and if he didn't like the divine beings answers he would deal with her too.

"Did the Divine being really just give itself to you?" Ark said in shock.

"Judging by what she said, it seems like the divine being feels it is no longer safe in Kelberg and instead wishes to go to Roland." Said Lenny.

"You heard that?" Ray asked

"Yes, I believe we all did."

The three of them all nodded.

"Did you see the visions as well? And the last part?"

Ray was worried that the others might have heard the Divine being mention his dragon name.

Lenny raised one of his eyebrows.

"I think the vision was exclusive for you and all we heard was the talk of answering your questions at Roland."

It was true that the last words of the Divine being were only heard by Ray but judging by Ray's reaction the divine being had mentioned something that Ray didn't want the others to know and Lenny had caught on to that.

The way Ray was even speaking to the divine being seemed like he didn't particularly like the Divine being either, perhaps there was even some history behind the two of them. Lenny only got even more curious about the boy in front of him.

"Can we really take the crystal, won't Kelberg find out, won't it cause a panic?" Ark asked, "Many people see the divine being as a protector for the city."

"The people didn't even know the divine being was located here in the first place." Lenny replied, "Besides even if the mayor did find out, I doubt he would cause panic to his people."

"Well Ray, what do we do now?" Jack asked.

Ray then looked at the crystal in his hand and thought back to the vision the Divine being had shown him.

"We do as it asked, we will head to Roland academy, even before this it was our next destination anyway so it won't be too much trouble to do something along the way."

"But how will we get in." Said Jack, "It's a magic academy right, I hear they are very strict and don't allow anyone inside apart from their professors and students."

"That will just have to be something we deal with when we get there."

"I hope you're not planning to barge I and fight your way to the divine being there are you?" Lenny said, "because if you are, I'm afraid that task will be near impossible, even for someone with your strength. It is the capital of Alure kingdom. The strongest Mages of the kingdom exist and work there. You would be spotted in a heartbeat. The only way to sneak in would be as a student."

Lenny then gave out a big sigh.

"I suppose I have a way I can help you."
