205 Dragon's secret let out

Nix bit on his lower lip, holding back laughter as he fully took in a creature that was 2 feet tall.

Its two shuttered eyes stared at Nix from their deep sockets. A small nose rests below, but it's the ordinary mouth below that took all the attention. A shy smile reveals two sharp canines and a little forked tongue.

Thin squared ears sit on each side of its small, wide head, which itself is covered in thick white hair.

On its head were two antennas with electricity bouncing back and forth on each end.

[Target identified: Zeen]

<This is the thing that invaded my territory?!!!> Raiken roared in Nix's head, feeling triggered by how little it looked and what damage to his reputation this had brought.

<I don't believe its size is real, it must be hiding its true size. Let me out so I can show this creature what a true dragon is!!!>

'Easy Raiken, as much as I would want to laugh at this thing, its size and calm demeanor should be an object for questioning.'

[Although they may look cute with a creepy mix, Zeens are naturally hostile when provoked. They tend to work with a single person in mind and link their very being to an object that is in connection with its weaker vessel host. Severely loyal creatures to the first person that approaches them with a bribe]

Mune tried to explain to the best of her vast knowledge with the short time frame allocated, knowing she was forgetting some sort of vital information made her narrow her eyes at the Zeen as she racked her thoughts for the answer.

'Bribe? What do you mean by a bribe?' His brows furrowed in confusion.

[A head of a human] Mune gulped, sweat dropping to the response she gave.

'I wonder where it could find a head to get bribed.' Nix rolled his eyes after his sarcastic comment on what he had just listened to.

There was only one way it could be bribed and given such a specific task–it would be none other than the organization's doing.

Since it had to be a specific object, Nix could well understand why they had not made him a target of these creatures, it wasn't nearly as strong as him at the peak of his energy nor did they possess any of his personal belongings.

Finally, he could understand why the task was said to take a day, they would be forcefully trapped in the outlands, kept to face every sort of creature they could encounter as they tried to get back.

'Not on my watch!' Nix glared at the Zeen, if he could take out this creature, they would be able to successfully return to the organization.

[Be careful, master] Mune warned him of the dangers of witnessing one of these creatures out in the open.

Tzzzz!

Nix took a step back and was wary of its little approach. Whatever this thing was, he needed to be careful for his sake, and the warning given by Mune, his energy consumption had drastically affected how well he could use his gift.

He had warned his team not to interfere with his plans, as his last resort was going to be summoning a dragon–that he didn't want anyone to know about.

Thinking things through, he wondered if it was ever possible to reason with this creature to let them leave but cut off its connecting ties with Zephyr's pendant.

'That jerk is indebted to me!' Nix proclaimed in his thoughts.

Tzzzz!

Ttttt!

Raising a brow to the strange sounds coming from Zeen, he prepared himself for any attack that might pop up soon.

[Something is wrong, I think I remember now] Mune hid behind Nix as a message popped up from the user interface.

[Warning: Zeen feral mode]

'Feral what now?!' Nix did a double-take as he stared at the screen with wide eyes.

[Things are about to get a little big around here] Mune warned, scared of the outcome.

–––––––––––

Jumping on some trees, Obsidian made sure he threaded lightly then stopped on a tree branch and took a sniff of the air to determine the location of Nix.

Tudum!

His head whipped in the direction of the strange noise coming from the tall grass-like area with few boulders. 'What in the dark–'

Obsidian gulped, eyes widened in horror at the growing emergence of a white creature a few meters away from where he stood.

'Nix!' Obsidian noticed his figure at a distance.

The creature grew in size, forcing Nix to raise his head and his mouth ajar at the growing sight of about 15 feet high.

The Zeen's body grows into a long athletic one that slightly hunchs over. Two broad arms hang at its sides and end in gentle hands with thick fingers, each with thin long claws. Its legs are small and stand straight, each ending in broad feet.

'You've got to be kidding me, a weird-looking yeti?!' Nix took a step back, readying himself to summon Raiken as things had escalated more than he could imagine.

<I knew it! Nevertheless, it could never rival my kind?> Raiken scoffed, eager to be let out.

Nix rolled out of the way the moment he saw the creature's hand sweep through the tall grasses.

He had always wanted to see how well Raiken could hold his lot with other creatures within his height range. Left with no choice, he called out in a loud confident voice.

"Come forth, Raiken!"

<Finally! I am free!> Raiken growled in enthusiasm within Nix's thoughts before he began to materialize out of his body.

A thick fog of black smoke covered the ground, as it began to converge into one point as it materialized into Raiken,

Its massive wings starting from just below its shoulders and ending at the lower end of its back spread out as it stretched.

Rooaarrr!!

Raiken's roar cut across a great distance.

Nix took a step back in a calculative retreat. If he stays there, he would be like a plant suffering the burden of two elephants fighting.

'You do your thing, while I go recuperate behind that boulder.' Nix communicated to Raiken before dashing out of their sight.

The Zeen screeched at the escape of Nix, attempting to go after him. Its leg had merely taken a step when it felt a slash to its leg which caused it to trip and fall to the ground.

Badoom!

Several blades of grass were leveled and served as a cushion to this large creature.

<Not on my watch!> Raiken's telepathic voice still cut across to Nix from where he hid, his heart pounding at the problem he had brought to himself.

Looking behind the boulder, he felt a hand pull him back by his collar and push him against the rock behind him.

Acting on impulse, he pulled on the wrist of the perpetrator, flipping them over and raising his fist. "Who are you and wh–"

"Obsidian?" Nix did a double-take, releasing his grip on his shirt.

"It must be fun having a towering pet to fight on your behalf, don't you think?" Obsidian chuckled, raising his hands in surrender.

Nix's eyes grew twice in size to Obsidian's words, he couldn't believe there would be someone who could catch him in the act.

'If he is here that means the rest would be here in a matter of–'

Obsidian noticed the conflicted look on Nix's face and smiled, he could rightly guess what could bring about that horror-stricken face of his.

"They are safely trapped in my black sphere, there's no way of them coming out anytime soon. You should know how authentic that is." Obsidian chuckled, shaking his head at how well Nix was bad at hiding this secret.

He had always known there was something strange about Nix, but not something as powerful as a dragon stored inside of him–that was trapping the impossible.

Looking behind the boulder in his stead, Obsidian chuckled at how well the dragon was holding off the creature he had seen grow in size.

"How long do you think you can keep this secret?" Obsidian wiggled his eyebrows suggestively.

Nix grimaced at the facial expression, not too pleased that he had been caught in the act.

"I don't think, I do," Nix replied with a roll of his eyes.

"Sure looks like you do," Obsidian replied sarcastically, turning his attention back to the duel between the two creatures.

"Woah!" Obsidian hid behind the boulder, narrowly avoiding the flames from the dragon.

"That's some firepower he got there." He chuckled as he turned his attention back to Nix.

"Why are you here?" Nix questioned with a frown and narrowed his eyes at him. As much as he was glad that the person who had found this secretive part of him was Obsidian, he wanted to know why he was followed even when he had ordered otherwise.

"Surely you should be glad it's your trustee friend." Obsidian pointed to himself, grinning from ear to ear.

Narrowing his eyes even further at the sort of response, he didn't look pleased with it all. "I need an answer."
