Dragon God Of Blood

Rus is digging with his hands on the soil, quickly removes all the red petals that fall into the hole he is digging, since he sees something that glows red, slowly grabs a small stone that emits a soft red glow like blood, he sees the stone the size of his little finger with a small hint of desire reflected in his eyes, if he takes that stone for himself he could escape from this d.a.m.n h.e.l.l he has been in since he was born, although he really only realized that it was h.e.l.l when his parents were killed when he was only 10 years old, now that he is 15 years old, the only thing he has left in his life is to try to survive to look for these stones every day for 12 hours in a row, but he doesn"t keep any stone, he has to give him all the stones he finds to the tribe... and if he does not, they will kill him as they did with his parents.

The reason he wants these red stones is because Rus remembers that the stones are used to prepare special concoctions that serve to better refine the magic of any type of dragon G.o.d on the continent. Obviously, he does not know how to prepare that kind of concoctions, Rus only wants to sell the stones. 1 month ago a man appeared in his house when he slept, that man was covered in black clothes, the only thing he could see of the man was his face, he thought that the man arrived like this late at night to kill him, but that man just smiled and introduced himself as Goro. Goro told him he could buy the red stones, he even told him to help him escape the tribe! With the money he will get selling the stones to Goro, he can flee the tribe without worrying about starving on the road. Rus is even thinking of using some of the money to enroll in a magic academy in the country closest to his tribe, the country of the dragon G.o.d of light!

With shaky and sweaty hands, Rus doubts if he should put the stone in his pants, look at his pants that really are only a torn fabric of the worst quality in the tribe that covers his b.u.t.t, the pants give the impression that they cannot contain anything because it would fall immediately due to how torn it is. But Rus has a little secret, he has a secret pocket in his pants, it is a pocket that is very difficult to see.

For 2 weeks, Rus has been knitting this pocket, although it may seem like a long time to weave a pocket, the truth is that he has had to suffer a lot to do it, he had to look for a very special fish bone that is always eaten in his tribe, the fish is very special due to its incredibly sharp bones, he had to go find the bone in the tribe"s dump to use it as a sewing needle, there have been times when he is almost devoured by some Habus in the dumps, the Habus are flying beasts, their appearance is really scary: they have white and black feathers, their head is covered with black feathers, while the rest of their body has white feathers, the Habus" eyes are totally white, without pupils and the worst part are its beaks that measure more than half a meter long! If it weren"t because the Habus are so big they make them incredibly slow, he would have died after being traversed by the beak of a Habu.

Rus has no choice but to look for the fishbone in the tribe"s dump since the only meal he has on the day is a bowl of viscous soup made with leftovers from the tribe"s day meal, he wants to vomit every once he remembers that disgusting soup! For him, fish is a luxury he cannot afford, nor does he have friends or acquaintances to help him, so he only had the option of going to the dump to get a bone.

After spending several days looking for a fishbone of the correct size to use as a needle, he ran home hiding from everyone so as not to be discovered. At home he took a piece of cloth from his shirt, then very patiently, during the nights he removed off the threads of that cloth until he obtained the necessary thread, he ripped out another piece of his shirt fabric and sewed the secret pocket of his shirt pants.

Finally, he stops doubting and puts the stone in his pants. Continue searching for more stones on the mountain, leave most of the stones to deliver to the tribe and put 5 stones in his secret pocket.

Rus looks at the completely red sky, when the sky is blue, he leaves his house to go to this mountain to look for more stones, he returns when the sky turns completely red, which means that it is already night. When he was only 8 years old, his father told him that at night the sky is red because a dragon G.o.d died on this mountain a long time ago and that since then Rushu"s flowers appeared all over the mountain. Rus has a half-smile on his face, at that time he believed in all his father"s words, but years later he learned that they were only legends, the sky has always been red when it is night and Rushu"s flowers only serve to produce those red stones that he looks for every day.

"Sigh, my dumb parents... why did they have to call me like those flowers?" His parents thought of his name based on the Rushu flowers, although they only eliminated the "hu" and left the "Rus", which is his name.

"Hurry up, you know what to do" Says a muscular man in green armor that only covers his chest and legs leaving his muscular arms uncovered. He is Fatri, one of those in charge of collecting the stones that the slaves of the tribe find on the mountain. Fatri looks with a cold look at the thin boy to the bone with the greasy black hair that covers his face and with ragged clothes.

Rus descends the mountain until he reaches the doors of his tribe, large black wooden walls, some guards with armor made of vicious beasts around the mountain. He swallows some saliva nervously. It is the first time he tries to keep some stones for him, he takes a deep breath and walks towards the tribe door.

Fatri looks at the bag for a few seconds, he looks at Rus and says "Why do you have so few stones today?" He is used to this child bringing about 20 stones, since he is the only one in the tribe who, despite not being a slave, works many more hours on the mountain than slaves.

Rus nods shyly and hands Fatri a bag of good-quality cloth. The bag is something that Fatri gives him every day to put the stones, but the bag is only for storing the stones, they always take it off when he returns to the tribe. In the ball, there are 10 red stones, in addition to the 5 he has he could not find more stones.

With his heart beating strongly with the sound of "thump thump" resonating throughout his body, he says with his head bowed "...Today I had bad luck, I couldn"t find more stones"

He put some Rushu flowers wrapped in the stones so that the stones do not sound when he walks, Rus has heard some things from Fatri in recent days, that he has quarreled with someone from the tribe who has a somewhat high position and that is why he has been behaving strangely. But Rus sees that Fatri remains the same, inexpressive and that he only asks a few things about the stones.

"Stop bothering that child, don"t you see those clothes? How can he keep something with all those holes? You should know what happens when the stones come into contact with the skin for more than 5 minutes" Says a bearded man with a very fat body with a confident smile, he is Nacus, a tribe guard, he has a black armor that reflects the light of the torches that are on the black wooden walls. Blackwood is impossible to burn, it is a magical wood used by large countries to make wands, although here they only use it for simple structures, since n.o.body in the tribe knows how to use black wood to turn them into wands. Rus sees that Nacus"s armor seems to be made of scales of some snake beast.

Fatri nods slowly "You"re right, go, rest guy, you gotta be here early tomorrow to find more stones in the mountains" Rus feel that your body is calmer, look at Nacus with grat.i.tude and with quick steps running toward home.

The two watch Rus leave until he disappears between the houses of the tribe.

...

In a house so old that even the wood seems to be full of holes, Rus is sitting on the dusty floor and cheerfully looks at the stones that emit a slight red glow. Then he looks carefully around him, keeps the stones under his bed made with the old clothes of the people of the tribe and with a look of hope, he thinks of all the good things that await him.

Rus thinks about what his life would be like in a white-walled magic academy with many runes everywhere, thousands of students entering and leaving the academy. Many incredibly tall and luxurious buildings... All he is thinking is not his imagination, he heard all this from his Mother. Before he was born, his mother was a student of the most important magical academy in the country of the dragon G.o.d of light, unfortunately, she did not meet the expectations of the academy, which caused her to be expelled, her family upon hearing such news, immediately cut off any relationship with her, even her father told him that he did not want to see her again. She had nowhere to go, she was completely alone until her father appeared, at that time he was doing a business trip to get some precious metals for the tribe and by chance, he met his mother. In the end, the two fell in love after many interesting adventures and 2 years in the future she gave birth to a baby.

Rus has a happy expression when he thinks about the moment his mother told him about the epic adventures he had with his father, but his expression quickly changed to a bleak look, he remember how his parents died in front of him... With a look of hate, he promises that he will take revenge on the tribe that killed his parents, exactly the tribe in which he now resides practically as a slave, the Kellai tribe, his father was the chief of the tribe, one day everyone in the tribe joined by a thing, kill his father and take away his power. His father tried to resist the continuous attack of the best warriors of the tribe, but he was not strong enough, even his mother who had some magical skills died with his father ...He is not dead because the person who took control of the tribe wants to make him suffer incessantly as a type of slave who will have to look for red stones all his life.

He knows many things that any child would only discover when he is older because he has received the best education from his parents" tribe. Although that knowledge was useless when his parents were being killed in front of him.

Rus stops thinking about all those things of the past, the most important thing for him right now is to sell the stones to Goro and then come out of the tribe without anyone knowing. He is sure that Goro will help him without being discovered, although he already has other plans in case Goro cannot get him out of the tribe.

"Ouaah" With a yawn, he approaches his bed and lies down. Rus expects Goro to come later in the night to buy the stones. Lying in bed, he feels the roar of his empty stomach, he tries to fall asleep quickly to avoid thinking about the delicious meals he ate when his parents were alive.

A few minutes later, Rus falls asleep deeply protected with rags full of holes, but even so, he seems to be sleeping peacefully, as if he didn"t mind sleeping with that blanket attempt that shouldn"t protect him from the cold of the night.
