Chapter 429: A lie or the truth?
Finally, Ray had done it. He had told someone about who he really was. The feeling he was feeling right now was hard for him to describe. This deep dark secret that he had kept with him this whole time, it had been released and suddenly, a hidden weight was lifted off of his shoulders.
It was a good feeling, and Ray honestly didn"t know why he hadn"t done so sooner. It felt so good that Ray had decided that he would continue to tell Slyvia about everything.
"When my death came along as the Great Red Dragon Sen, I was reincarnated into a weak and pathetic human body.?I was blessed with two wonderful parents, but to me they were complete strangers. As time went on, I eventually learned that I was still able to use my dragon abilities. But I was still stuck in this body."
"Right now I"m on a quest to get my body back, to return to what I once was. What I didn"t realize though, was since my death and my reincarnation into a human, that the world had vastly changed and there was a new threat called the Shadow."
Ray decided to stop there, any other details about himself could be filled in and if he gave too much, it would perhaps be too much for one to handle. He would need to see their initial reaction first before he went further into talking about the Divine being and so on.
Slyvia had lifted herself from the bed, was still partly covered in the bedsheets, her face was looking towards the bed and she still hadn"t made eye contact. Her body was slightly s.h.i.+vering still. It couldn"t have been due to the temperature of the room, Ray thought. It was fine even without the sheets, which meant only one thing. She was reacting to what he had said.
"If you no longer wish to follow me, I complete unders…"
Before Ray could finish his sentence, the bedsheet was thrown over his face. Slyvia then quickly got both the ends, and proceeded to tie him up, before getting up and heading to the door.
"You little boy Ray, Reincarnated into a human? I thought you were better than that!" She shouted. "I told you to not lie to me and then you come up with an even bigger lie!" The door was slammed so hard that the vibrations could be felt even on the bed.
Ripping through the sheets, Ray could see she really had left the room.
"She didn"t believe me?"?The good feelings and weight that he felt lifted off him just moments ago, was suddenly put back on "I guess that"s quite the normal reaction huh, too unbelievable even after everything that has happened."
Slyvia, continued to storm out of the room and went next door giving a loud knock before entering. As she entered, both Harry and Martha were seen together standing with a worried look on their faces.
"What"s with you two?" Slyvia spoke seeing the look on their faces.
"Well, I"m not going to lie to you, Sylvia, but we heard you shouting. I think the whole Inn heard you shouting.??? Martha replied. "What happened?"
Slyvia went towards Harry"s bed. She could tell which one was his, due to the weapons that were packed near the side. She proceeded to jump on the bed while in her sour mood.
"You can go stay with Ray, I"m not going to sleep in the same room as that guy…"
Slyvia went into details of her conversation with Ray, telling them everything. She didn"t talk about the appearance she had seen, because that felt a little too personal, and whenever she would think back to the image, her face would get fl.u.s.tered.
Instead, she said she was curious about Ray"s power and asked about that, and then told them this reply about claiming to be the great red dragon Sen. After she was done complaining, Slyvia nearly went straight to sleep.
It was the only thing that would calm her down. Harry left the room and went to sleep with Ray, and Martha was left to think about what she had just heard.
Although the idea did seem far-fetched and crazy, she started to wonder if it was true. She remembered so many things that didn"t add up. Ray knowing the great Wyvern and it was even heeding to its command. How when he was cut, he had black blood oozing from him, and calming to have gone through the beasting process before them even though he sounded just as surprised to learn of the beasting process as everyone else.
If you looked at it, the story did make sense. Ray had red hair and knew the Divine being. Dragons in a way were considered myths that were as strong as G.o.ds. How else would Ray be so close with the divine being? And on top of all that there was the very last thing. The crest that every member of the red wings had.
It was a red dragon, even the name of the organization. If Ray wasn"t the red Dragon Sen, then he was someone who was obsessed with it.
The next day had arrived, and a note was left for the boys to read. Apparently, both Martha and Slyvia had gone out together, and she decided to do some exploring without them. The truth was, Sylvia was going to try to help out her brother in this short amount of time, and see if there was anything she could find out about the black liquid. Originally she wanted to go as a group, but she still didn"t want to look at Ray.
The boys were free to do what they wanted but were left with a single task.
To watch over Ray and make sure he didn"t do anything crazy. Right now, both Kyle and Harry had read the note, which was put underneath their room doors.
However, as Harry looked around the room there was no sight of Ray at all.
"Why would you give me such an impossible task. How am I meant to control that monster." Harry thought.
