Akashic Records of the Bastard Child Engaged to a Goddess

Chapter 178 —Entry— Imperial Sapphire Dragon, Eunaria?

Imperial Dragons Arc

---

(POV: Akashic Records)

In Vito Heights, a majestic mountain reigned supreme, surpassing all others in its grandeur and height. This mountain, known as the Dragon's Summit, towered above the floating lands in the sky, its peak hidden in the ethereal clouds. At the very top of this awe-inspiring mountain, standing tall and proud, was a colossal fortress adorned with intricate designs of dragons with their wings spread wide.

Within the fortress, Lady Eunaria, the renowned Imperial Sapphire Dragon, made her way towards the imposing entrance.

"This is going to be so fun.."

Her loyal servants bowed with utmost respect as she gracefully descended the steps, each movement exuding grace and authority.

Eunaria adjusted her regal gown, the rich fabric flowing around her like a liquid cascade, and her captivating blue eyes shimmered with an electrifying energy.

With a smile playing on her lips, Eunaria spoke, the melodious timbre of her voice resonating with power.

"It feels like an eternity since I last ventured outside the Dragon's Summit," she murmured to herself.

"Alright, here we go."

As she took a single step beyond the fortress walls, an intense surge of energy emanated from her being, spreading throughout the entirety of Vito Heights.

It rippled through the air, touching every corner of the land, causing magical beasts to take flight in a desperate bid for safety.

The very fabric of reality seemed to tremble under the weight of the power unleashed.

From the outside, one could only wonder that the fortress itself was designed to contain or suppress the immense aura of anyone within its walls.

...

(POV: Akashic Records)

In the midst of our intense combat training, Serena and I soared through the skies, our wings slicing through the air as we clashed.

But suddenly, an unimaginable surge of power shook the very foundations of Vito Heights, sending ripples of energy cascading across the land.

The weight of this force bore down on our souls, causing a shiver to race up my spine.

Instinctively, I turned my gaze towards the source of this power, my senses alert and on edge.

Memories from the past flashed through my mind...

Yes, it was like that time...

When Lirien tried to kill me...

That same sense of danger, that chilling presence, it was unmistakable.

Someone, or something, was drawing near.

Before I could fully comprehend the situation, a blur of blue hair streaked past me, a fierce grin etched in every line of her face. Her elongated claws aimed to strike me, to tear away at my flesh. But with a lightning-fast maneuver, I sidestepped her attack, narrowly avoiding the imminent danger. In the blink of an eye, a deafening explosion of sound erupted, causing me to be blown back by the sheer force of her incredible speed.

Quickly, I descended through the sky, my heart pounding.

Isadora was the first to approach me. "Who's that girl?" she questioned.

I shook my head, my mind trying to comprehend the situation.

"No idea," I replied, my eyes narrowed. "But one thing's for sure, she's bad news."

The mystery of this blue-haired girl continued to nag at my mind.

How was she able to fly without wings?

Was she utilizing some form of flight magic, or perhaps something even more potent?

The answers eluded me, leaving me with a craving for knowledge.

Serena, never one to shy away from confrontation, confronted the enigmatic intruder.

"Who are you?" she demanded with a strong and unwavering voice.

The girl paused, her electric blue eyes meeting Serena's gaze fiercely.

"I am Eunaria, the Imperial Sapphire Dragon," she declared.

A silence fell over our small group.

We exchanged bewildered glances, our minds struggling to grasp the magnitude of this revelation.

Fasit, always quick to voice her thoughts, spoke up with a perplexed tone. "She doesn't look like a dragon at all."

That much was obvious.

I'd read literature from the Dragon Continent before.

To be precise, it was the one given to me by Brother Art.

It was called <<Tales of the Dragon Warriors>>. That aside, there was nothing much I knew about dragons, I'd only started learning about them since the drama with Serena and her ascension to an Oblivion-core Ascended Dragon Trifect.

Hovering above me, Stellaria stifled a yawn.

It was quite obvious that nothing ever bothered Stellaria. She was the strongest person I'd ever seen, not including All-Father.

"You guys are always making a big fuss about these names." (Stellaria)

"Huh?" (Lumiere)

"High-ranking members of the Dragon race can assume a complete human form. While some dragons retain certain physical characteristics, such as scales and animalistic eyes, ancient dragons can assume a completely human appearance. It's hard to tell unless they reveal their true nature." (Stellaria)

"That makes sense." (Lumiere)

Skarz took a readied battle stance. "Why haven't we heard of Eunaria before now?" he asked.

Mimosa chimed in, her voice gentle yet curious. "Well, maybe she just arrived in Vito Heights now?" she suggested.

Stellaria shook her head.

"I highly doubt that. I can sense beings through my spatial detection ability, and Eunaria's presence isn't unfamiliar to me. She's been here for quite some time." (Stellaria)

"Then why didn't you say anything?" (Lumiere)

Stellaria shrugged. "Well... because there was no use, I didn't think they'd confront us."

"Really," I sighed, pinching the bridge of my nose. "We need to talk about your complacency later."

"Anything for you dear," Stellaria gently winked.

Fasit turned to me with a sense of urgency. "What do we plan to do?" she asked.

"Well, I'll see if I can talk to h—"

Before I could respond, a resounding thud echoed through the air, causing my heart to skip a beat. Serena's body hit the ground, unconscious and vulnerable.

How had this happened?

I only diverted my attention for a brief moment, and now Serena lay unconscious before me.

"Oh my, that doesn't look good." Stellaria's face remained with a smile.

How could she remain calm in this sort of situation.

This was the first time I'd ever felt it... anger...

How dare anyone touch my Goddess.
