Chapter 9 - The First Light of the Sacred Herb

And since I have found the solution I can't just wait and do nothing. I have to make sure that the trust and the hope that has been given to me by kaelthor is not wasted.Cause with this I can make the whole dragon emperor reborn.

And without thinking I went to the hills on the night where I could meet the Wind Dragon ancestor, Sylvara. And after waiting for a few moments she finally arrived.Sylvara's dragon form is a sleek, silver-scaled creature, like a living breeze—her wings, vast and translucent, ripple with a lavender shimmer and hints of pale blue.

Then, when she transforms into her dragonoid form, that same aura stays, wrapping her in a wind-like energy. Her humanoid body is tall, slender, and graceful—each movement is fluid, and her silver skin glistens like moonlight.

Her eyes, calm but intense, shine silver-blue, with just a subtle spark of purple in her fingertips. She is a perfect balance of wind's calm and a dragon's strength—majestic, otherworldly, and always in motion.

Her looks were so beautiful that anyone will fall for her but now I have no time and currently zarveth is not here to guide me so I have to maintain my personality as his so no one can understand that he is dead.

For a brief moment, her beauty distracted me. But this was not the time for such thoughts.As twilight faded into a soft evening glow, we were stood by the edge of a quiet lake, my heart pounding with uncertainty. Sylvara appeared beside me,her presence as subtle as a breeze, but her voice carried the calm of centuries.

"Why do I feel so lost?" I asked, my fingers fidgeting. "I keep hearing about a divine spell—but no one will say what it truly is?"

Sylvara's gaze remained steady as she replied, her words like a distant river. "You do not know what you seek,nor do I wish to burden you.The spell is a beacon across time—but it's not easily found.I know it's truth,but I must guide you slowly,so you do not fall into danger."

I swallowed hard, myself my voice quiet. "But why me?I'm just a stranger here—what if I fail?"

Sylvara's smile was faint, but kind. "You feel it because something in you is ancient as well. I will not rush you,but trust this:every step you take brings you closer to understanding—not just spell but yourself."

Hearing this a sudden question pop up at my mind. I was chatting casually with her but how did she knew that not only I was reincarnated but has a linking to the void dragon something is definitely confusing.

But I didn't ask much question and prepared to head over at the secret place of the castle.Cause the divine spell is supposed to be found at the hidden chamber of the castle but the main thing is the herb. Cause the herb is called Draconis Bloom.

Which only blooms at the territory of silver dragon even if we don't take good care of that it can blooms easily. I have already taken care about that matter.

1 week ago:

"So what brings our current dragon lord zarveth here today? Is there any problem that we can help?" Asked Elizabeth her silver eyes watching me carefully. I smiled and with a calm tone said that , "There is something that only you can help me with."I said to the queen of silver dragon.

She replied with a smile, "Is that so? what can I help you with?

"There is a herb called Draconic Bloom which only grow at your territory so I want you to give me the herb within one week." I said with a calm and serious voice.

Elizabeth thought in mind,"The way he is speaking and the way he is saying about that herb it means he knows what exactly he is doing and why. But either way...."

"I would like to know why you are interested in that herb. Cause no one use it nowadays." Elizabeth asked."I need the herb, because the bomb is ticking—fate has set this countdown. Only by awakening the elder can we stop it. And when it happens, the truth we've all been hiding will be revealed.", I said with a serious voice.

She asked with a shock and serious face, "What do you mean by that? I don't understand at all. Can you explain it to me?"

"I don't have time just make sure that you prepare the herb before the time that I gave you is finished." I said calm and urgently.

"Okay leave it to me. I'll make sure that the herb is in front you before the week passed." Elizabeth replied.

Present day:

" Welcome to my castle." I welcomed Sylvara to the castle.Cause the road to the spell was hidden under the castle. " So do you know where is that divine spell that you are looking for?" Sylvara asked with curiosity.

"Yeah I do know about the way.but we need to find the hidden key that is hidden in the way of the path.With that we will be able to locate the divine spell." I said with confidence.
