Kimiko's intense glare was matched by Ophis' trademark blank stare.

Fiery red against black darkness. It sounded like some massive movie trailer, and yet the situation unfolding here was far from the safe vision of some action-based story.

No, this was going to become a terrible instance of doom which I was caught in between. A storm just around the corner that waited to crash upon my proximity and more.

I was silent, praying that the two female dragons weren't going to jump at the chance of throw dirt at each other. Especially Kimiko. I really didn't need my pretty girl to leave me in a pickle with her high-tier sassy tongue.

But just like before, my hopes were useless before the intrigue and confusion swelling from within the Sprite Dragon's mind.

"What… What are you?"

I blinked at the comment, surprised at the lack of steel in this first query. My shock was brief as the little girl donning goth clothes in front of us replied.

"I'm Ophis."

Well, that's her name. I had expected her to give out her title first, but I guess it wasn't consequential to the Infinity Dragon to give out her credentials to someone far weaker.

Sadly enough, her reasoning was possibly misunderstood by the younger Dragon and I could tell from the next question.

"What is a Ophis?"

"That's my name," The girl continued. "I'm Ophis. Nobody else is."

I almost nodded at that, but my nervousness prevented me from acting on that.

The rest of the people here in the roof had gone silent at the tiny exchange. My masked partners had their attention evenly divided between me and the powerful monster standing before me.

Ingvild looked slightly relieved at the lack of pressure exerted on her protector, but the Devil's interest was mostly directed at me with an undeniable interest in seeing the remaining aggressors removed.

I didn't even need to look at Tiamat to perceive the heavy frown she was leveling on the very individual that got a verbal victory over her. It was surprising how much of a grudge she could hold- but then again the Chaos Karma Dragon still hated Ddraig's guts with a passion.

It was Rivezim's reaction that got me partially confused.

The man was staring at the scene with an absurd degree of interest. But I couldn't perceive anything malicious about it. In fact the goofy smile plastered on his as he started to eat the pop corn he had conjured through magic was enough to give me a temporary confused frown as I glanced at him.

"But I asked 'what' and not 'who'," Kimiko retorted quietly, some irritation dripping off her words. "Why did you tell me your name?"

Ophis blinked. "I'm sorry… what?"

"What are you? I asked you about your species."

...Now I was losing the argument pressed on by my familiar. While at first I could've understood her reasoning over the question she had forwarded… the same was impossible for me by the very reason this question existed.

Why was Kimiko having trouble understanding that the being in front of her was a fellow Dragon? She was able to do that with Ddraig, and more recently with Albion, so why was she having issues now with Ophis?

"I'm a Dragon. I'm Ouroboros."

The proclamation struck some dread in our newest partner. While Kurenai had long perceived that this little girl wasn't actually a little girl, the revelation finalized the realization of what threat we were facing.

"No," Kimiko refused flatly. "You're not."

"I'm Ophis, I'm infinite-"

"You're not a dragon."

If before I had felt confused about the fiery girl's comments, now I was having a difficult time understanding what was going on.

"Kimiko. Ophis is a Dragon-"

"She's not, Papa!" The familiar interrupted again, but this time the certainty in her tone made me pause in pressing on with this point. "In fact, I think her scent is unique, unnatural, and… weird."

"Hey kid, what's your cute familiar saying?" Rizevim half-shouted from his chair, his voice slightly muffed by the food in his mouth.

He looked a little bit irritated, but I guess it had to do with the fact that it felt more of a one-sided conversation with the fact that Kimiko's speech was in her Draconic form.

I was tempted to not say anything about it, just out of spite against our current enemy, but I was so mesmerized by the absurd development that I felt the need to bring up this news to the others.

"Kimiko is saying that… Ophis isn't a dragon."

The repetition got a minor frown from the dark-haired girl. "I'm a dragon."

"You're not. In fact, I bet you don't have wings to back it up!"

Instead of responding to that through words, Ophis went ahead and materialized a pair of dark-purplish wings behind her back. They looked quite draconic to me… but Kimiko was hardly impressed by the display.

"I didn't ask if you could materialize those. I asked you if you had a pair of wings."

"What's the difference?" The goth girl inquired. But it was annoyance in her tone, but a surprising amount of interest over the matter.

"Well, I've wings. Those are my wings. If I created wings, those wouldn't be the same as mine."

The logic was childish and fairly simple… but with that explanation Kimiko had unwittingly opened a box of Pandora with these words.

I almost tensed up as I realized what the familiar was implying and my jaws almost dropped when I took a moment to refine this suspicions in a genuine theory. It was a possibility. A strong one to booth.

"You're not a Dragon," I muttered with a quiet sureness.

"I'm not?" Ophis asked again, once again lacking any irritation at that assumption. I was almost certain that she was actually fascinated by the topic. "But why?"

"You were Ophis from the beginning. But did someone bestow you with the other titles?"

There was a pregnant silence after that, and I thought that I had don' goofed with that inquire.
