Ch 56: Shade Trashcan
Right firstly, Agnis and Raishin you are banned from using any big attacks, you can do so at the end of day 4 and on day 5 but not before that. Sounds fair.
But I know that even though this makes sense it can be unreasonable to do so when needed we launch the shades in the air and destroy them there. I know that Agnis and Raishin do well in aerial combat how is that for you Ted? If they are not too far, I can just send [Meteor punches] and [meteor rains] at them and I'm sure one of you guys can launch me in the air if my range is too short.
I see, I’ll see what I can do with gravity manipulation. Next up when dealing with shades in the city prioritize non-damaging skills but also ones that wouldn't become an issue when it becomes echoed, Agnis’ [frozen ground] and his [Flash bombs] are good examples, while annoying it isn't going to hurt anyone. But I don't have any of those! I think he is saying that you should just not do anything or figure out some new skills with this. You could use wind magic to blow shades in the air or out of the town. Just don't do it too hard because it will blow everyone else away too.
Oooh! Lastly, and this is for you Ted, I think it is best if we make a corner or something that can hold a lot of shades with earth magic. We can all try to get them all in there and then either blast it or I will shadow-meld it. So that when the echo happens, we only need to chuck the shades in there and they will get blasted by the echo. We need to use some sturdy earth magic for that. Hey, that is a good idea. So, it is like a shade trashcan? I like that idea.
“Grooaaah!” Raishin keep your stomach under control! Or go eat something! Hey that wasn't me this time! Right, guys, I failed to mention this, we have good news and bad news, what do you want to hear first?
Uhh, bad news first. There is a 15-meter tall red shade rampaging in Boshi town. And what is the good news?
It isn't killing anyone because we are stuck in a closed space. I'm conflicted about that good news, is there any better news?
Uhh, it locked onto our location and is coming for us right now? How is that better news?
I'm sorry I'm not good at this! Oh, we need to get out, that is a laser! We all ran out of Raishin’s hut and looked for cover as a large blast hit his hut.
Nooo! My hut! This jerk is going down! Hey, Agnis how likely is what is happening here to echo in the real world? I have no clue but since this is a bit outside town it should be fine, let's lure it further away from the town and nuke it. I will slide all the shades over here. I started to slide all the shades in this enclosed space to one point.
Shade trashcan where? Right, let's get to work, Ted! Right!
Hey, Raishin you can practice your wind stuff now! Guys another laser! I made a [Frost mirror] and reflected the laser into space.
Hmm, no invisible wall in the sky, eh? Ooh you have a cool idea, don't you?
Shall we see how high we can get this thing? Hehe, let's go!
Let’s see… I activated a filter which allowed me to see how heavy this shade was.
It looks big but it only weighs like 60 kg, we should be able to do this easily. Right, let me blow him this way and then make a tornado. Raishin blew the big shade over to us and created a tornado. It lifted himself, me the big shade, and multiple other shades into the air.
You guys were right last timeline, I had to specifically target ourselves to also be affected. Right, let's do this! We took out our tails and used them to propel ourselves through the tornado. Since we were in the air it was fair game so we could use whatever magic, we wanted. I had to be careful because I had the habit of using [Tail dynamo] when spinning my tails but I didn't need it this time.
How can we make this more interesting? I can make ice blocks for footholds.
How are you flying up so high so fast anyways? I don't know! I think I'm becoming immune to gravity! I wrapped my wires around Raishin and pulled him upward. The big shade was still shooting lasers but because we were flying upward while spinning in the tornado it couldn't aim very well. The same went for the regular shades so this tornado was kind of filled with lasers.
These lasers are annoying. How about some baked shades?
Control your flames, please. I made a controlled flame and the wind fed the flame and the whole tornado turned into a fire tornado.
Hahaha, this is pleasantly warm! The big shade doesn't seem to be affected though.
Hey, remember when we tried to form Fusion elements by fusing fire and lightning magic? Want to give it another try? Hehe, things are so much easier when friendly fire is off! Let's go! I linked my vision with his.
Oh, this again. Let's try to tune this better.
So, what do I do? Just drop lightning in this tornado till my eyes tell you to stop.
Easy! Raishin poured his red lightning into the fire tornado. And it turned into a lightning-fire tornado.
I’ll try to tune my flames better. Hey look it seems that shades’ laser is feeding our tornado!
Yes, keep shooting shade! You will just speed up your demise! Hey Agnis what is this?
Oh, that means that we messed up the ratio and that this tornado is going to explode. Oh... too bad, we’re immune to this explosion, right?
Uhm, well see this here it says that this mixture changes the nature of this attack so the answer is no. I see… Hmmm, this sucks… Raishin grabbed me and teleported us out of the tornado. We landed on the ground and the tornado seemed to go out of control and it started tearing into the fabric of this enclosed space.
So, since you guys discovered that we can't hurt ourselves you just decided to blow up the whole space? Hey, listen it went well until… uhh it didn't. Is this going to break us out of this space properly or will there be more problems?
Well, it seems bad but so far it looks like it will get us nicely, well not so nice there will be a huge explosion first that is going to do a lot of damage if we don't protect ourselves. Oh, shit then say so earlier! Gregory made an [earth wall] and a [Shadow wall] I decided to make a [frost wall] inside these in case some nasty radiation will get released.
Hmm, it seems we had more than enough time to get out of that. Well, the [Explonado] is volatile so it could explode any moment. Explonado?
I like it! The [Explonado] exploded and tore the separate space to pieces and we ended up in the normal world.
Shade free, eh? They will probably appear tomorrow. The big one will be there too I guess. It seems the normal world is unharmed but ugh the dimensional fabric looks yucky. I circulated nature magic because just the look of this dimensional fabric was nausea-inducing.
What are those? What? Yuck! You can see it too Raishin?
I’m still linked with Agnis’ vision. I linked my eyes up with Gregory and Ted and they instantly hurled.
Please disconnect! I have seen enough! I closed the link.
Ugh, what are those things? I don't know, but it can't be good. What I was seeing was something like the following. Normally the dimensional fabric is nice and smooth like fair skin or a piece of a silky tablecloth. But now it looks like skin that is festering, and to make it worse there were some weird dark green fluorescent maggot-looking creatures crawling on parts where the dimensional fabric looked torn but healed back together. I don't know if healed is the correct term but since I’m drawing comparisons between that and skin that is the only term I can come up with. I’m not saying that the dimensional fabric is like skin but at the moment this is what it looks like.
Ugh, I think I will be relatively useless in this timeline. You can turn the filter off, right?
Yes, but whatever happened in the fabric of space or dimension gave a decent indication if something was worsening. I don't think anything is going to turn out to be better than the last timeline so anything that can warn us of danger is valuable information, no matter how queasy it makes me. I emptied my stomach.
Maybe I will feel a bit better tomorrow. My buddies seem to have recovered a bit. I hoped that nothing bad would happen today so I turned the filter off and went home to rest. Before I reached home, I saw something appear that suspiciously looked like a trashcan made out of earth magic close to Raishin’s hut. I yet again apologized to Hera and Philip for worrying them and headed to my room. I tried to sleep but kept thinking about those disgusting things. If I draw a comparison to what maggots would do on a real festering skin then they are eaten rotten uhh dimensional flesh? Does that even exist? Something is not going well and these things are an indication of that. Will destroying them solve the problem? Or are they more of an indication of a problem? Removing maggots from festering flesh won't heal whatever is going on. And I've never even heard of any creature like these existing. It isn't something you can see unless you can see the fabric of space/dimensions. As far as I know, there aren't any spatial pest exterminators under the tailed beasts, is this something I should deal with too? What is next? dimensional rats and cockroaches? Please no.
We really used the worst timeline to get Azu’s help. It wasn't an easy timeline but also not the hardest. I look outside. The town seems fine. I turn the filter back on. The town doesn't look fine now. I remove the filter. The town looks fine, I turn it back on yeh this doesn't look good. I turned the filter off again and circulated more nature energy through my system. I laid down in bed. What if the rest of the world is as crazy as this town? It will suck but I'll try asking Charlize about it tomorrow. She was an adventurer so she should know a lot about the world. The question is… How am I going to formulate this question? Maybe ask her what her craziest adventure was and how it stacks up to her regular experiences. I guess that works. I will meet her tomorrow no matter how much I try to avoid her so might as well make use of it. The encounter with Donkey, however… Will they leave me alone when I join their group? I don't think so. What if I disguise myself as an adult? I cast an illusion on myself and inspected myself. I made myself 10 years older. Hmm, will this work? People will still see that this is me. I decided that I don't care. I went to sleep looking 10 years older.
Right, I have to specify, 10 Kaledonian years. Not that that makes sense because, after the age of about 20 Kaledonian years, the appearance of most immortal species gets locked. So, a 20-year-old me will look almost the same as a 2000-year-old looking me. Tailed beasts don't seem to have their ages correspond linearly like the witches. They count 1000 years as 1 witch year. For me and my buddies, it isn't so simple at least for now. Ted is the oldest but that's because his age actually gets counted in Kaledonian years officially so he is 14. After that, the 3 of us are all 1-year-old, I’m 1 year and a bit in nine tail. Raishin isn’t 2 years yet in six-tail and Gregory is also far away from turning 2 in three-tailed, now here is the thing. And Gregory explained this to me. Apparently, to convert our real age to Kaledonian we need some funky exponential formula. Each long-living race has its own strange formula. So, I turned 1 year old after 9 Kaledonian years but I will turn 2 at 81 Kaledonian years. Raishin turned 1 at 6 Kaledonian years and will be 2 at 54 Kaledonian years. Gregory turned 1 at 3 Kaledonian years and will turn 2 at 27 Kaledonian years. It's complicated, Yeah, I know. But that means Gregory is the oldest and I’m the youngest. I don't know who came up with these rates but they made sure that whatever number tails we have is the age we have when we turn 1-year old. After that, they gave up so after 5 years old it's just 1 year extra for every 900 Kaledonian years for me, 600 for Raishin, and 300 for Gregory. The same goes for other-tailed beasts I assume.
Day 1: It's a beautiful day, the sun is shining and it feels like something big is pounding on the floor. Ugh, it's that stupid shade again. No shade in front of my window which is good. I climb to the roof. There aren't many shades in town but the 4 big shades in this town make up for it. I hopped to a rooftop looking over the town square where the shade was being an asshole again and was pounding the floor. It noticed me and approached me. I decided to lure it to the shade trashcan and blast it. I saw Donkey and his crew struggling against some shades. Do I help them out? Does it matter? As long as I help them out in the last timeline. I attracted the attention of another big shade so this would be a bad idea anyways. I lured the shades to the trashcan and I saw windblasts throwing shades in the air. I made ice slides to catch them and transport them to the trashcan.
Sup Agnis, Whoa! First a female voice and now a growth spurt? It is to avoid Donkey and his friends, they won't bully me or try to recruit me as an adult, I think…
“Agnis, is that you?” Oh, nice timing Charlize, and hey what are all of you doing here?
“We have some questions.” No, we won't go on a date with your daughters!
“We, know, Kanna and I have some memories of the last 5 days except they weren't the last 5 days and a lot of weird stuff happened, like you guys being some mythological beings.”
“Yeah, Leah and I have the same!” Uhm, bad dream? Yeah?
“But these things that you guys called shades look the same and our dreams seem to match with Cecilia and Leah's dreams.” Aha, well then there's no helping it, we might have mentioned something about time loops, this is the next one.
“I see…” I guess this works out, we won't have to deal with you guys chasing us. I slid more shades into the trashcan after Raishin blew them up in the air.
How come they suddenly remember? No clue, maybe everyone remembers now, or the people we saved from your nuke.
“Hey, you're not going to destroy the town again, are you?” We are doing our best that's why we're getting all these shades to the trashcan!
“And why are you older now?” Troll looked at me. I’m trying to avoid Donkey and friends; I have a question for your mother and Cecilia by the way. Since you remember what all happened and stuff this makes things easier. Is the outside world as crazy as what is going on here?
“Oh no not even close, this is 100 times crazier than my wildest adventure.”
”Same here.” That is good to hear. So, if we break out, we will have a quiet life? Sounds good! We swipe up all the shades and get them into the trashcan.
If you would be so kind Raishin. I can finally blast something! [Nova blast] The shades in the trashcan got vaporized.
“So uhh how can we help?” Hmm, that is a good question. Let's fetch Greg and Ted. On the way to Gregory’s house, I explained the rules we made to make sure Boshi town wouldn't end up as a crater.
“So, we just move the shades to that… trashcan and ask Raishin to destroy them?” Oh, the echo will take care of that!
“Ah, right.” Raishin banged on Gregory’s door. Boshi police! Open up! I can hear that it's you Raishin! Gregory opened the door.
Well, this is an unusual team and what are you trying this time Agnis? Evading Donkey and co.
And them? He points at the mothers and their daughters.
They remember the last timeline. Huh? How?
No clue, maybe you had an idea. Do Hera, Philip, Gianni, and his girlfriend remember too?
Dunno didn't check, I'll go ask Hera and Philip, you guys do uhh, your stuff! Hehe, I’ll go mop up some more shades, wanna come Kanna and Leah?
“Uhh, sure, not sure how we can help though.” That's fine! I'll carry you!
“You don't need to carry us! We can get there ourselves!” That's not what I meant but sure… I headed home and asked Hera and Philip but they didn't seem to know what I was talking about I did get questions about my appearance and I convinced them it was one of Gregory’s potions and that it is temporary. Hmm, it would be awkward to ask Gianni now that he doesn't know me. As I was thinking about what this meant I heard a loud screech. I heard screams and saw people looking up. Well, I guess a flying shade isn't surprising. It is just one though. I shoot an ice arrow and freeze it solid. It falls to the ground. Easy! It gets swept up by some wind magic Raishin and Charlize use to move the shades. I look at the trash can. It is getting full but no echo yet. Raishin can blast it but if echoes are not coming then we’re being careful about nothing. So not much will be happening today according to what is supposed to happen. Half our problems remembered the last timeline and are assisting. We also gave up on following the timeline properly. Only the important things will be dealt with. Talking about important things I still need to nuke potato village.
As I got that thought my intuition went wild. Charlize is on our side now which means… I turned on the filter which allowed me to see the messy state that the dimensional fabric was in. Something seemed to be moving behind it. It still had those nasty maggots on it but it looked like I saw something making a tear in the fabric. Is that a claw? Oh, hell no! I took out all of my tails and closed up the hole. The maggots reacted and headed over to me. I blasted 2 with spatial bolts and they exploded in dark green goo and it splashed all over me. An enormous wave of nausea swept over me and I fell to the ground vomiting. It wasn't the fact that they exploded, everything here looked gross enough but this goo on me had the worst sour smell I've ever experienced and it was all over me! I tried to undo this by shattering illusions but it didn't work.
Are you kidding me? Is there something I don't understand about getting hit by disgusting goo?! I cleaned myself with water magic but I was still more or less incapacitated by nausea since the stink didn't go away. Is this how I die? In my own vomit? Whatever was behind the fabric of space was moving again. Wait I made myself older with illusions, if I break this one maybe I won't stink anymore! I shattered this illusion and I was back to my non-stinky 12-year-old self, good! I coated my hands in spatial magic and reached out to grab illusion shards that were swiftly disappearing. I couldn't grab one with my left hand but I succeeded in grabbing one with my right hand. It turned into a weird looking dagger. That is cool and all but my tails still haven't worked out what I can do with this. I took out my tail.
Hey, do you have answers? No answer, I take out another tail.
Did you figure out how to make a dimensional anchor? Also, no answer. Why are my tails so lazy? Right, what to do with this illusionary dagger? It was some blurry crystal-looking dagger that refracted light which made it rainbow-colored and shifted color depending on the angle you looked at it. I inspected it. My eyes told me that this dagger doesn't exist. Great now I'm fooling my own eyes. I hid my tails and I fixed another hole and more disgusting maggots wiggled toward me. I wish I had more of these daggers because normal ones probably won't do anything to them. And this non-existing dagger split. Well… ok. I threw the daggers at the maggots and they crystallized and shattered. No goo. Some energy came out of them and flowed into the fabric of space. It seemed to slowly heal up. Hmm, don't tell me this is how I'm supposed to fix this mess? I kill more maggots and the fabric looks way healthier now. It still looks bad though and this thing is still trying to tear holes into the fabric. Also, the maggots are starting to run out and it's nowhere near being fixed.
Ok, all maggots are gone, what now? The claw tears through space again and I throw the dagger at it. The dagger bounced off the claw and an earth-shattering roar followed. It caused an earthquake, no that is wrong, the whole space trembled. Did I do something wrong? Whatever it was started thrashing. Sometimes a claw poked through and I fixed it but besides that, it just looks like something big as moving behind it. I don't know if I can look through the fabric to see what's behind it but maybe I don't want to know. I strengthened the nature magic in my body to counter the disgusting feeling I was getting from how bad the fabric looked. I need more maggots! Never thought I would say this. They were key to fixing this. I looked at some goo that was still on the ground where I got hit earlier. Don’t tell me I need to understand this goo to fix this. Ugh, can I procrastinate on this? Is this why my race is endangered? I can't imagine that vomiting this frequently is healthy. I inspected myself, I wasn't in danger but I was far from healthy. Meh. so, this thing wants to come in, which is a bad idea, what else can I do to make it go away?
What is my race’s specialty? Illusions and spatiotemporal magic. Is that all? I don't know. Can I create a powerful illusion to trick it and convince it succeeded the invasion? I don't know what it would do if it will just trash around it's not going to help. The best thing is to trick it into fleeing, but what would a thing like this be afraid of? What would the scariest thing be? A god? I don't know what any look like. Azu? She is stronger than a god. Oh… my mom! Now, this might sound bad but hear me out! My mom has defeated multiple gods also she often went on expeditions to fix whatever happens when dimensional cracks appear. I don't know what the difference is between dimensional cracks and tears but they probably aren't that different. So, if there is anything that relates to this and knows about my mother then it should have an impact! And my mom is super strong. I got a plan. And I got 7 digits of illusion layers on my side. I’m not going to be cheap I'm going to use half my layers to make an illusion of my mom. Maybe it can stick around and help us. Although not sure how good that would be for my mental state since eventually, she will have to go… Maybe just scaring off that thing is the best idea… doing otherwise is tempting though but it's not really her…
I slapped my cheeks. I focused as hard as I could and brought up all the memories I had about my mother and all the stories she told me. I started to tear up but I kept focus. My instinct told me to stab myself with the illusionary dagger so that's what I did. The area I stabbed cracked and it looked like that area turned into glass and shattered. Light shone out of it which made a projection that slowly turned into the figure of my mother. The wound closed up and it was as if I never had been stabbed. The dagger disintegrated. I noticed that this didn't take as many illusion layers as I intended to feed it, it only took 50. It did seem that I could only use this dimensional dagger when in the proximity of a dimensional-related problem. The illusion of my mother looked at me and smiled. It then took off in phoenix form and flew through the fabric of space. Another earth-shattering roar and a phoenix cry. I don't know what happened but I could guess, this illusion sent the monster packing. The fabric of space started to burn.
Oh shit! I approached it but it seemed to fix the fabric. It extinguished. It didn't fix much but even if it's little, that helped. I looked at my hands. I thought of what just happened. I tried to make another illusionary dagger. I failed. I got close to the part of the dimensional fabric that still looked like it was festering and tried again. After 3 tries I got my illusionary dagger. Right, I still don't know how to fix this with this dagger but at least I know I can, and how to make it. I threw the dagger but it did nothing. I stabbed myself again with the dagger but nothing happened. It went through me as if the dagger didn't exist. I repeated what I did earlier and tried to bring my mother out again but that didn't work either. What am I supposed to do? The dagger vibrated, shot out of my hand, and pointed at me while floating.
Me? I looked behind me but there was nothing. I moved to the side but it kept pointing at me. It kept vibrating while pointing but the vibrations became less and less and it fell to the ground and shattered. This forced the filter to close and I stopped seeing the dimensional fabric. I have no clue what just happened there and I’m sure nobody knows the answer. My intuition tells me this might be a nine-tail fox specialty. I decided to leave it be. Suddenly I saw a flash and felt a magical energy surge. I looked over and saw the trashcan getting nuked. Raishin was on the other side of Boshi town blowing shades though, does this mean the echo started? I was quite mentally exhausted but decided to help clean up some shades until it was dinnertime.
During dinner, I tried to discover if Hera and Paul remembered the previous timeline but it seems they didn't. Did you hear those 2 roars?
“Roars?” Yeah, I heard 2 earth-shattering roars this afternoon.
“Did you hear something, honey?”
“No, sorry, are you sure you’re feeling alright Agnis?” Hey, isn't this odd those roars shook even the fabric of space itself, shouldn't everyone in this village have felt and heard it? Oh, so no roars or earthquakes? Maybe I dreamt it then.
“I didn't feel anything no, it might have been a dream yeah.” Hera took the dishes and brought them to the kitchen.“Can you make some ice cream for us Agnis? We haven't had any for a long time.” What fruits do we have?
“Oooh, can you make banana split?”
“We had banana split last time Philip! I want chocolate strawberry!” Strawberry chocolate it is! I started making the ice cream while lost in thought. Did I really dream that? Did I fool myself with my own illusions? Was it a dream? I handed Hera and Philip the ice cream while still lost in thought. I decided to ask my buddies.
-Guys, I have a question, did you guys hear an earth-shattering roar that shook the fabric of space? - - I did not, what is this about? - - No roar and not earth-shattering. - - Nope, sorry- I explained what happened.
-That is concerning- - Do you know what that thing was? - - I don't know what any of that was I also had no clue what I was doing, I… I just followed my intuition.-
- How many times did you vomit?- - I lost count…- - Sounds rough, was it another enclosed space?-
- Nope, I'm sure of that.- -Did you awaken?-
- What?- - I don't know some power sleeping inside you woke up and now you're even more overpowered than before!-
- Don't think so, I feel weaker than ever, I don't know what is going on most of the time.- - Maybe you're not supposed to know what to do in that instance just follow your nine-tails instinct, maybe that is the best thing to do. When my dad taught me how to get into big bear mode and increase my regeneration, he told me to stop thinking and just follow my instincts. If I had to tell a fellow war bear how to go in big bear mode, I wouldn't be able to because it is something that is hard or impossible to describe or teach. Maybe this is what is going on, you are thinking too much, and let intuition take over. - - Last words before Agnis goes crazy and drops the world into chaos! -
- Hey! I wouldn't do that! Probably… But thanks for the tip, Ted. - - Maybe I should follow that example too. -
- Oh, right how is it going with that voice? - - He is hearing voices? Is he finally going crazy? - - Why is everyone saying that?!- - Because that is a valid question? -
- I’m not going crazy but to answer your question, my shadow is talking to me, and I've been ignoring it for a long time but it gets louder every timeline. - - I don’t think there is any chance that this is good news. - - What is this good news you guys are talking about? We could use some of that, so dimensional stuff is fucked up so now the shadows are joining the dark side? Hehe.-
- Well, Agnis advised me to try and listen to it but I haven't yet, I’ll listen to what it has to say, give me a second…- - I bet 2 gold that it's super bad news.- - Nobody is going to bet against you, we all know it's bad news, the question how bad the news is.-
- Hmm, guys, shall we just give up?- - Ehh, what did your shadow say?-
- So ehm remember what I told you Agnis that sometimes things sealed in the shadows can merge with it and get out?- - Oh no please not this!-
- So I don't know how or why but there is a dragon sealed in the shadow of a mountain close by and my shadow has been trying to tell me about it the whole time.- - Please be a baby dragon, please be a baby dragon-
- it's a light dragon of about 1500 years old…- - Alright guys it was nice knowing ya! When is it escaping? -
- I don't know but if it doesn't get out of the shadow in this timeline it certainly will next one. - - Can’t we flash bomb the shadow of the mountain to eliminate it? -
- You see the problem with things as large as a mountain is that if you set a flash bomb off on the side where its shadow is the shadow just shifts to the other side of the mountain…- - Let's ignore it! - - What? You want to ignore a light dragon? Wait it fused with shadows so what is it?- -Don't they cancel each other out and there will be no dragon?-
- That would be convenient but I don't know what it is.- - Does your shadow tell you how it got there?-
- Well that is the funny part, it was a goddess’ pet but it got banished by a witch…- - I should be surprised but I just am not…- - How strong is Azu?-
- Wish I knew…- - Is it a good idea to unleash her upon the world?- - That is a good question but she seems harmless and that question could be extended to ourselves. Imagine if we were about 2000 Kaledonian years and a god came to harass us what do you think the aftermath would look like?-
- Well if you say it like that I would say that Azu managed to keep the damage to a minimum, the world is still here after all, if Raishin or Agnis would get harassed by a god I would fear for whatever is in a 3000 km radius of that battle.- - Rude but probably true.- - I would just undo the damage with an illusion.- - anyways, I don't think Azu is a threat, the gods and that trapped dragon are but ignoring it might be good for now.-
- Are you crazy? It is a dragon! - - And what can we do against a 1500-year-old light shadow dragon? -
- Uhh, good point. - - We leave it be till the next timeline, Azu said she would help out next timeline, and she will be our best shot. -
- Oh right. - - You don't have any more bad news by any chance do you Raishin? - - Nope, my intuition tells me we're screwed enough because of what you guys said. - We closed the Teleroad conversation.
Well, this sucks, I don't remember the mention of a dragon in the potato village library. The dragon was called a pet, who calls a dragon a pet? I guess a god would. Although Dragons fall also in the category of creatures that could challenge a god and have a chance of winning. 1500 years is quite a young age for a dragon though, maybe it got raised by the goddess? Dragons are one of the few long-living races that don't mind high numbers in their ages. I forgot how much 1500 Kaledonian was in dragon years though. I decided to stop thinking about things and went to sleep. We are going to find the last root we can detect. I’m sure it will be a pain in the ass.
