Chapter 244: State of the World

The being that descended from the heaven-like clouds seemed endless. They could see its beginning, and its end, yet they felt like it was all a lie.

\'It\'s an eastern dragon\' Ed thought to himself as he looked at the dragon. The dragon had green scales that resembled the purest leaves of a forest. The scales seemed to change their color intensity as the dragon moved in the sky.

It had long whiskers that made it seem like a sage. Its horns resembled a deer\'s, and they looked menacing. On its back, a silver patch of fur extended from its head to its tail. Its long body finally stopped moving. Its gigantic form towered over the heavens and the earth. Everyone, including Vortigern who was dozens of kilometers away, could feel its power.

"It\'s up to you now, Edward" Vortigern spoke softly as he turned around and started to walk into the cave.

\'System, analysis.\'

[You\'re in for a treat with this one, hahaha.] Ed was surprised after hearing the system laugh for the first time ever. He knew that the system could express emotions, as it cracked jokes from time to time, and even teased Ed before. But, he had never heard it laugh.

\'So, he\'s that difficult of an enemy?\'

[The strongest monster you\'ve ever met. Even stronger than the black dragon from before, and no not the tower one.] Ed couldn\'t believe what he was told. The black dragon from two years ago was so overwhelmingly powerful, that Ed couldn\'t scan it. Ed knew that the system could tell its power, so he couldn\'t even deny it.

\'Well, let me see the analysis.\'

[Most certainly.]

Name: Unknown. (Divine Dragon)

Grade: Mythical.

Cultivation: Immortal Establishment level 7.

\'You weren\'t kidding\' Ed exclaimed in his mind. \'What does it mean by \'Unknown\'? I was able to know Mehen\'s name from before, so what\'s the difference?\'

[My best guess is that the dragon lived for such a long time, that it forgot its own name. That, or it had amnesia.]

\'Well, wouldn\'t that be funny.\' Ed smiled wryly as he looked at the grade of the dragon. Mythical. A grade that only his favorite sword Shusui, and some of his skills share.

"thee who is\'t has\'t trespass\'d ov\'r mine own mountain, state thy purpose," The dragon\'s voice kept reverberating. As if he was overlapping his own words. Of course, due to the type of English he used, none could understand him. No one, except the eccentric angel, Merry.

"Merry, you spoke this way when we first met. Care to translate?" Ed looked at the floating Merry as he spoke.

"Most certainly! He said, \'you who have trespassed over my mountain, state your purpose\'!"

"Then please tell him that I came here to wish for the world\'s most comfortablenever mind, I\'m here to slay him in order to make him my Avatar."

Merry did as she was told, and spoke to the dragon. "I\'m h\'re to slayeth that gent in \'rd\'r to maketh that gent mine own avatar."

"What rubbish! Thee humans. Thee humans who is\'t has\'t nay idea about the w\'rld\'s state. About the p\'ril we\'re facing. Thee hath killed the lasteth Transcend\'d monst\'r two years ago, without knowing the consequences, and thou art anon h\'re to slayeth me! I shall not standeth f\'r this!" The dragon\'s below caused the whole area around the mountain to shake. The clouds dispersed, and the air cowered in fear from the dragon\'s anger.

Merry explained to Ed what the dragon told him.

"The last Transcended monster was killed and the world in is peril, huh?" Ed\'s memory flashed, as he remembered the body of the Quetzalcoatl that was displayed when he first visited the auction two years ago.

\'The world is in perilIs it somehow related to that second tower? And why does killing monsters sound like it makes things even worse?\' Ed fell into deep thinking and forgot the situation he was in.

"Well, we\'re here, and we\'re going to kill you. If the world is in peril, then I will do something about it myself! But for now, Blood sect is more perilous than anything!" Ed said as he withdrew Shusui, and pointed it at the dragon.

"Well then, disappeareth!" The dragon opened its mouth wide and displayed its pearly white set of canines. From the depth of its throat, a crimson red flame appeared, and in an instant, it was released. The laser-like breath chipped away a part of the mountain and hit the forest below. The trees burnt instantly, and the ground turned into lava due to the intense heat. On top of the mountain, no one was there.

"Appeareth. I knoweth yond thee aren\'t dead. Thy eyes did flash red bef\'re mine own breath hitteth thee, and I couldn\'t feeleth any life disappearing," the dragon maintained a composed tone as he spoke. From the top of the mountain, Ed and the others reappeared.

Ed remembered how he almost died after being hit by a laser breath from the dragon in the tower. Thus, once he noticed the dragon opening its mouth, he activated his Mangekyo Sharingan and hid everyone in a pocket dimension.

"What a waste" Ed turned around the see how the beautiful forest was destroyed. "Dragon, do you mind if we switch the area? I don\'t want to damage the earth anymore."

The dragon fell into silence as he considered Ed\'s proposal before he said, "I accepteth."

In an instant, the dragon was enveloped by a power, which he felt like he couldn\'t resist. The scenery around him changed from a mountain surrounded by trees, to a simple plain that spanned as far as the eye could see.

"Thee sayeth we wonneth\'t harmeth the earth, but isn\'t this still it?" the dragon asked Ed.

"It\'s not. We can fight to our fullest, and we don\'t have to worry about anything happening to our earth. Also, don\'t worry. If I\'m killed, this place will come undone on its own, and you will return to your mountain. If I will, well" the dragon seemed satisfied after hearing Ed\'s explanation.

"Emilia, please take Bella and retreat as far away as possible. This battle isn\'t something her body can handle." Emilia didn\'t say anything, nor object to Ed. She knew that he didn\'t leave them back at the mountain in order not to hurt their feelings, but he couldn\'t allow them to stay here.

"Let us begin." Ed withdrew his three swords, while his comrades each got ready.
