TEASER CHAPTER 7 PART 7
Spinning
vision and floating feeling as if floating on water.
Looking
at the countless white lines running in front of him again, Nozomu prepared
himself for the impact that was sure to follow.
However,
what followed was somewhat different from what Nozomu had expected.
The
countless white lines, which had been flowing in one direction, changed
direction and began to fly around in his field of vision at random.
"Eh?
Something's wrong. The atmosphere seems different from before..."
At
the same time, Nozomu's vision began to flicker erratically as if inside a
sandstorm, and he began to hear a ringing sound in his ears.
The
next moment, a sudden shock hit Nozomu's entire body.
"W-what
happened!?"
The
speed of the fall increases rapidly, pulling Nozomu's body downward
The
irregular flicker intervals became shorter and the ringing in his ears
gradually became stronger.
"Uwaa!"
A
scream came out from Nozomu's mouth due to the sudden change in speed.
The
wind that was hitting against his entire body was even beginning to cause pain
in his body.
Nozomu
gritted his teeth desperately and continued to endure the pain, but he was even
more transfixed by the numerous sights that passed by like shooting stars.
Scenes
that looked like they had been cut out of a picture frame crossed Nozomu's
path.
The
growing figure of Tiamat. The young dragon gradually grew beautiful scales and
wings along with her friends.
Tiamat
and Mikael cuddled under a night sky full of stars, and numerous species
gathered at the feet of the two dragons. And the steadily growing cityscape.
Even
without knowing the details, it was easy to sense that the two dragons were
doing well.
However,
that thought was completely negated the next moment.
A
shock ran on Nozomu's body which had been falling.
"Guu!"
He
checked his body with a distorted expression due to the intense pain running
through his body, but his limbs were still able to move properly.
He
could feel the ground in front of his body. It seemed that he fell on his
stomach.
"What
the hell happened……"
While enduring the pain in every knot in his
body, Nozomu sat up and was astonished.
A
devastated land spread out before Nozomu's eyes.
There
was no trace of a single grass or even an insect that could be seen on the
smoky earth, and in several places, red-hot glass-like crystals stood out like
icicles.
Here
and there, ruins made of stones were strewn about, and the carcasses of charred
creatures emitted a foul smell that stung the nose.
Thick
clouds swirled in the sky, and a thunder-like screeching tore through the
atmosphere.
And
above all, what caught Nozomu's eye was the sight of a lone black dragon
standing in the ruins.
No,
it was hardly a black dragon anymore.
Scales
were peeling off here and there all over its body, and the blood that had
flowed out was running like a red river on the earth.
And
at the feet of the dragon lie four torn dragons.
A
yellow dragon with countless holes in its body, a green dragon with its neck
twisted in a strange direction, a red dragon that exploded from the inside, and
a blue dragon whose entire body was burned to a crisp.
Particles
of light were dancing from their corpses and flowing into Tiamat, who stood
stunned.
And
on the back of the black dragon standing in the wilderness of death, six
distorted wings had already sprouted.
