I Received System to Become Dragonborn

When all the chains that were entangling his body disappeared, Dragon-Erend immediately flapped his wings and flew into the air.

Due to the enormous flapping of the wings, the wind wave pushed Annette backward until the woman fell on her buttocks.

But Annette's eyes couldn't move from looking at the Dragon. The creature floated with its gigantic size as if it could cover the sun at any moment.

Annette's eyes opened wide even though the great gust of wind brought dust to her face. Annette might not even know that dust got into her eyes.

The woman's mouth opened slightly. Annette's whole face was a clear sign that she was admiring the Dragon figure in front of her.

Dragon-Erend shot towards the Dark Mage. Annette watched his every move. The flames blazing on his shoulders extended backward like a tail of fire.

What made Annette feel even more amazed was something that had happened earlier.

When she said she would try to communicate with that Dragon, everyone in her party said that communicating telepathically with Dragon was a bad decision.

The power of a Dragon is already legendary because they are the beings who once created this world. With creatures like that, of course, the humans who could only use a small portion of Magic were no match for him.

Even so, as someone who greatly admired Dragon since childhood, Annette couldn't possibly contain that impulse.

The consequence that she might be mentally broken when communicating with Dragon certainly crossed her mind. But the consequences are only the background for Annette's sense of excitement.

Then, in the end, Annette tried to communicate with the Dragon while freeing him from the chains that the Dark Mage had released. While her friends took care of the Dark Mage.

Turns out, it went better than Annette thought. She did not feel any significant pressure when initiating telepathic communication with the Dragon.

Instead, Annette feels the same way when communicating with the Dragon as when she communicates telepathically with an ordinary human.

It was a reality that was beyond Annette's expectations. And of course very strange.

The words issued by the Dragon also sounded like ordinary humans. Annette thought of several possibilities.

Perhaps the Dragon was too strong and intelligent so he can match his words with a human.

Or, that Dragon has some kind of... human side.

Annette didn't know what was really going on. After all, this was his first time communicating with Dragon.

An explosion was heard in the distance. Annette woke up from her daydream and remembered that now she was in the middle of a big battle.

Annette emitted a blue light around her body and then floated into the air. Now she just felt the pain of falling from the tree branch.

Annette has a strange talent that is relatively useful. When she daydreams or focuses her mind on something, Annette can temporarily ignore the pain she is suffering.

But when her mind regained consciousness, then the pain would come again.

Annette floated in the air and looked at the scene in front of her. A monster with three serpentine heads fell on its back.

In front of it, a creature that was similar to the Dragon but had a pink and slightly translucent body lunged at it and stabbed the monster with its claws.

But that's not the main point of the fight in this place. It was the battle against the Dark Mage.

All of the adventurer party members had retreated when they saw the Dragon had been released from the chains that bound him and flew towards the Dark Mage.

They weren't stupid enough to be in the middle between the Dragon and the Dark Mage.

Their job was only to distract the Dark Mage for a while. While Annette freed the Dragon from the chains.

And now their work is done. Time to retreat to safety.

Dragon-Erend was extremely grateful to that group of adventurers, whoever they were.

They have provided him with very useful assistance. Now it's just his job to take care of the Dark Mage.

The Dark Mage was now in a state of panic. His Magic Energy was almost exhausted while the Dragon was getting close to him.

Everything he had done earlier had almost succeeded had it not been for a bunch of annoying humans.

The Dark Mage gritted his teeth. He wouldn't have anything to turn things around now.

The Dark Mage pointed his staff at the approaching Dragon-Erend. Then emitted thick black smoke from his staff. He had to run now or else he would die here.

'ZWOOOSH!!!'

Suddenly fire burst from the mouth of Dragon - Erend and instantly dispelled the thick black smoke.

The flames aimed straight at the Dark Mage. The Dark Mage who didn't think that the attack would come so quickly immediately created a half-dome shield.

The burst of red and orange flames hit the shield. Green and black sparks spread out in all directions indicating that the shield was starting to disintegrate rapidly.

Due to the depletion of Magic energy, the Dark Mage can no longer maintain a strong enough shield.

The Dark Mage was too focused on maintaining his shield because the fire was still burning his shield. Even though Dragon - Erend didn't spit it out anymore.

He didn't notice that Dragon - Erend was already under him. The Dark Mage's eyes widened as he saw Dragon - Erend's claws coming toward him.

But he couldn't do anything. Once again, his Magic energy is almost gone.

'BUAGH!'

Dragon - Erend slammed his claws toward the Dark Mage. His body sped up and then fell in the middle of the forest with a loud boom.

Dragon - Erend instantly shot toward him.

Dragon - Erend then found that the Dark Mage was lying on the ground weakly. He seemed to have no more power to do anything.

Let alone fighting back, he didn't even have the strength to stand up anymore.

In the distance, a shrill and painful scream rang out. Most likely, the monster with three serpentine heads had also been defeated by the Slime.

[ MP: 12/60 ]

Erend looked at his worrying MP. Then he instantly deactivated [Fire Dragon Transformation].

Red and orange light shot out and the Dragon's gigantic form disappeared.

Erend returns to his human form. He stood not far from the Dark Mage who lay helplessly.

Erend took a deep breath. His whole body looked sweaty and felt weak. But this Daily Quest wasn't finished yet.

Erend walked towards the Dark Mage. The Dark Mage's eyes moved to look at Erend who was coming towards him. But he couldn't move his whole body now.

He also can't use Magic anymore. All the wounds and fatigue he had suffered in the battle made his body unable to do anything now.

Because, no matter how much Magic power he had, when he no longer had it, he was just an ordinary human.

"I can offer you more power... if you let me live," the Dark Mage said with a weak voice and heavy breath.

Erend snorted at his words. "Didn't I say earlier that I had to kill you?"

The Dark Mage looked at Erend with hatred. "If it weren't for those adventurers, I'd have taken your soul!"

Erend now chuckled. "Yeah, I feel pretty lucky."

Erend picked up the dagger with the snaking blade of the Dark Mage that fell not far from him.

"This is an interesting dagger," Erend said.

The Dark Mage's eyes flashed with a hint of hope as Erend held the dagger.

"If you want to kill me, do it now!" the Dark Mage said as if to challenge Erend.

Erend looked in turn between the dagger in his hand and then the Dark Mage.

"Of course," Erend said.

Then he walked closer until he was standing right next to the Dark Mage.

The Dark Mage's eyes fell on the dagger in Erend's hand. If Erend thrusts the dagger into his body, then he can absorb the Magic energy in the dagger. Then, this situation could turn around again.

But then Erend smirked. "I wouldn't risk using your own weapon."

Hearing that, the Dark Mage's eyes that were full of hope dimmed with fear.

[ Skill activated: Dragon Claw (Lv.1) ]

Erend's hands turned into Dragon claws.

"Finally, it's all over."

With a sigh of relief, Erend plunged his claws into the Dark Mage. The Dark Mage died without a sound.

After that, a notification from Systema appears.

[ Daily Quest Completed! ]

[ Due to the difficult conditions that exceed expectations, additional rewards will be given. ]

[ Reward: 400 Exp. ]

[ You leveled up! ]

[ You leveled up! ]

[ You leveled up! ]

[ You leveled up! ]

"Yeah, that's right," Erend mumbled.

Compensation was given to Erend for the difficulty level which turned out to be higher than Systema had expected.

Erend thought the doubled experience reward was well deserved after all that had happened.

"Level Up four times. That's good."

After that, Erend saw four people running toward him.

"You..." a man wearing a dark green robe that allowed him to easily disguise himself with the surroundings of the forest pointed at Erend.

"Where is the Dragon?" the man asked.

"You're looking at him," Erend said.
