Code Name: Ryu Little Brothers
It's been three weeks since our departure from the capital. With Yukio and Emihiko, we travelled through a village needing help. The task was simple for the three of us, so we solved it in under a day. Despite their hot-headed personalities, the boys have become quite attached to me. "Is something wrong?" asks Emihiko, concerned. I stare into the campfire we lit. "No," I reassure, "There is nothing wrong." He looks at me suspicious, then gives in and says, "Okay. If you say so." He gets up and sits next to me. "Hey, Ivy. Can I ask you something?" "Anything," I reply instantly. He looks down, flustered. "C-Can I... can I call you... sister..." He looks up at me, and my eyes are filled with horror. He becomes uncomfortable and says, "No... forget I said anything." He returns to his spot and wraps himself like a burrito inside his blanket. Why did I do that? The more time I spend with them, the more they look like him. My eyes become heavy, and I dose off. I woke up the following
Code Name: Ryu Behemoth
"Hey, did you notice Aqua avoiding us?" "..." "I don't think it's fear, but something else." "..." "Hey, Elisabeth. Are you listening?" "..." "Hey!!" "It's been three weeks since we left the palace. It's been three weeks since I departed with Haruki." "Is Haruki the only thing you ever think about?" "You try being away from the person you love for centuries. Once you meet him, you won't want to leave him." "But you're the one that said I should leave him be." "That can't be helped. If we took him with us, the King would have died." "The King?" "Forget it. That problem has been solved." And Haruki has grown in the process. "So, do you think Aqua fears us?" "Why are you asking me?" "Because you are the expert on minds." "Memories, not minds. I'm not a psychic. I only read memories." "You know, you both are terrible at whispering," says Aqua, finally speaking to us. "If you can hear us, tell us why you're keeping your distance from us." She continues marching forward,
Code Name: Ryu Capital City
After rescuing Rai, Erika and Elsie, we prepare to depart for the Capital City. "Are you sure you want to stay?" "I need to stay here," she says with a mourne-filled expression. "This village depended on the Village Chief. With him gone, we need to rebuild this village into something you would love to see the next time you visit." "Yeah. While you do that, I will rescue Tristan's brother." "Do you know where he is?" "No, but if anything, I'll bet they took him to the capital city." "Knowing the village chief's obsession with King Heilder, I also believe he was taken to the capital." "What is it like?" "What? The Capital?" I nod my head. "I have never been there. I only know it's called Arktick." She hands me a map. "It's not far off from here. If you fly in your dragon form, you should make it in an hour or two." "Thank you, Tess." "I hope you find who you're looking for, Haruki. And don't forget to visit once in a while." We waste no time in our departure. "Looking at th
Code Name: Ryu Demon
After taking us to the castle, King Heilder leaves us with these words, "Rest up. Your wounds are more severe than you think they are." "What does he mean 'worse?'" asks Rai. "Can't you heal yourself with your healing magic?" "I tried using my healing magic, but it doesn't work." "Doesn't work? Your Healing Magic is more powerful than anything I've seen." "I think this is Behemoth's magic." "His magic?" asks Elsie. "Magic that obstructs another caster's magic, Anti-Magic." "Anti-Magic? I never heard of it." "Of course, you haven't. This magic is not customary. There have only been two casters known to use Anti-Magic. Behemoth would be the third user. It's a power that contradicts the very existence of magic." "So, can you defeat him?" asks Elsie. "His body is as hard as a dragon's. And his strength doesn't fall far from my own. Honestly, if I fought him, I would seriously win." "How are you so sure? He dominated the fight against you." "True, he utterly destroyed me in our
Code Name: Ryu Story
In the beginning - before time existed - there was a vast expanse of space. This expanse of nothingness hosted a being, ALL, whose origin is unknown. With her magic - the original magic, Almighty - she created the universes, galaxies, stars, planets, suns, and all other spatial bodies. But this was not enough. She proceeded to create six beings from the natural elements around her - known now as the Six True Gods. From a ripped fabric of space, ALL created the firstborn son, Saint Alvis Ragnarok. From the darkness of the universe, ALL created the King of the Nether, Saint Lucifer Morningstar. From the light created by stars, she created the God of Light, Saint Venus Nirvana. From the recently created fabric of time, Saint Amey Gigante was born. From the concept of Life, Saint Sky Aerlogard came into being. And finally, from the concept of Death, Saint Sky Aerlogard's twin sister, Saint Anpu Dwargo was born. These six saints were formless beings tasked with creating realms. Saint Alvi
Code Name: Ryu Judgement
I sit in front of the demon, speechless. He told me an unbelievable story, but what stuck out was, "I am an artificial dragon?" "No, you are an Artificial Being. You have the DNA of each of the Six True Gods; however, since you were raised in Ragnarok, you only accessed part of your genealogy." "I find this all hard to believe." "Hmm. Ok, then how about I prove it to you? Close your eyes and focus on the area next to your shoulder blades." "What are you talking about?" "Just do it. Trust me." I don't know if I can trust anything this demon says, but he is the only person who has given me any answers. I close my eyes and follow his instructions. But after a minute of standing in silence, nothing happens. Just as I want to open my eyes, I feel something growing from my back. I open my eyes and behind me are wings of blood. "What is this!?" "Those are demon wings. A demon grows them when they reach adulthood. And since you are an entity that has existed for millions of years, you
Code Name: Ryu Acceelos
"The greatest, you say. Just who are you exactly?" "I am but a demon who has lived longer than others. You will know my name soon enough. Anyway, I realise why you could not defeat Behemoth. You are not drawing out the power of ALL." "Not drawing her power out? What do you mean?" He searches the ground and picks up a stick. He proceeds to outline two bodies in the soil. "Inside every living being, there is a mana pool. To use magic, mana is drawn from this pool. However, in your body, there are several mana pools." "Several? Is that even possible?" "It's possible since you are an artificially created being. You have mana from all six of the True Gods and ALL." "I see. That would explain why I never run out of mana. But I don't see how I'm not drawing out ALL's mana." "ALL's mana has been sealed inside your body. This means her power is restrained, which makes you automatically draw power from your other mana pools. And since you only have portions of mana from the True Gods, yo
Code Name: Ryu Target
What is this power I feel coursing through my body? My skin has become tan, and I have wings that can't retract. They are reminiscent of fairy wings - translucent, with a beautiful spiral pattern. Not just that, but my vision has improved immensely - without using magic, I can see further than a hawk. I also feel strong physically. I walk to a nearby tree. I punch the air, which causes all the trees and snow in the area to disappear. "Did the trees just vaporise?""You have the physical strength of a dragon and giant. Your hair is dyed midnight black, your irises are blood-red, and your pupils are stretched-out like rubber. Your skin has become tan, like that of the giant race. Your height has shortened, which makes you look like a child. And you have a heavenly aura that places you in league with the Gods.""This is my new race? An Acceelos. I feel a power surge from deep within me. Is this the power of ALL?""Yes. You have merged the powers of every True God - which converged with A
