Chapter 766: Hard to imagine
Chapter 766: Hard to imagine
Rain told Seadrei the details of his encounter with the magic people, vividly describing the chaotic battlefield where he faced off against the formidable basilisk and crystal dragons. He highlighted the intensity of the skirmish, emphasizing the dragons’ overpowering aura, which surpassed that of ordinary dragons by tenfold.
Moreover, Rain explained that despite these dragons being akin in size to their counterparts, they were ancient beings, having lived for millennia, therefore compensating for their inherent weakness in speed.
"I can see why you aren’t confident, but even so..." Seadrei said.
"They should have hundreds times more evolved dragons and the dragons shouldn’t be older than two thousand years," Rain said. "I can only imagine that the dragon god is many times stronger than any of them... that is without counting the fact that they have nine heads."
Rain didn’t want to think about the dragon god because he could only imagine one hell of a beast. The scary part was the possibility that each had one have one ability of the several types of dragons. It would be like the beast was able to pick all of the abilities of the numerous types of evolved dragons to create one hell of a combination.
Something like the combination of crystal dragon and mirage dragon would create a creature impossible to detect or feel... Rain imagined that each head of the beast would grant the dragon god such abilities with steroids.
"No one Aside the dragons saw the dragon god aside the dragons since that war against the giant beasts..." Seadrei said while he was fixing his dislocated shoulder. "Still, if there is someone who might make that guy show up, that someone might be you. You don’t think that we can defeat them if we team up?"@@@@
He meticulously detailed the current situation to her, offering a clear explanation of the circumstances they were facing.
"... Things are that bad, huh?" Isa said after a few seconds of silence. "Your choice was the correct one, the demi-humans won’t be able to get along with the humans for a long while, but if things turn complicated as you are expecting, things should change in the future. Regardless... how determined are you?"
"... As much as I can be given the circumstances," Rain said. "I know what I have to do, but I can’t do it... I am not ready to let go of everything... I want to see my wives growing old with me, I want to see my kids growing and becoming adults and creating their own families... I am not ready to let go of all that. No matter the cost."

"I suppose that is the right thing..." Isa said and then sighed. "Since it has come down to this, I can only say that you should keep heading South as much as possible. The dragons don’t like that area either and the magic and beast people probably won’t look for the civilians if all the fighters die. It would be too much of a hassle. Even more so if they suffer many casualties in this war.
Aside from that... no, it is nothing."
Isa was troubled between conflicting emotions as she listened to Rain’s explanation. She deeply admired his dedication to safeguarding his family and understood the priority he placed on spending time with them. Yet, she also felt a bit of disappointment at his reluctance to take more decisive actions to ensure their long-term safety and free them from the attacks of their foes.
She wanted to offer more support, wishing to see Rain exhibit a stronger determination. However, his apparent lack of resolute commitment made her realize that going the extra mile to aid him might not yield the desired results...
