Dragon of Abyss

[SYSTEM UNLOCKED]

For a second, I think this is a dream. After twenty years of being imprisoned, an explosion breaks my seal. My eyes are covered with thick dust as my prison is destroyed.

I step closer to the iron bars that are now lying on the floor. This prison is completely destroyed and not a single guard comes as if they have forgotten about me.

[WARNING! YOUR DISASTER CORE HAS BEEN STOLEN!]

My status window appears again after twenty years. It never showed since I was sealed in the prison and it was locked automatically.

Another explosion follows, no bigger than before, but enough to knock down the roof of the crypt. For the first time in my second life, I see the sun.

Walls crumble down on me, they shatter every time they touch my head. I think it's thanks to my strength.

I step outside, towards the top floor where the chaos happens. I have to find that person. Amenus. The man who had locked me up since the first day I was born into this world.

The sound of people's screams grows louder as I step on the higher floor. All this time, I knew I was imprisoned under Amenus' palace. However, it doesn't look like a palace anymore. Only ruins remain. I hope he doesn't die. Because I have to kill him myself, reclaim my disaster core, and bring catastrophe to this world.

I have never seen the face of this world. Amenus sealed me since I was a baby. If I was an ordinary baby, I would lose my mind. Imprisoned for twenty years without anyone teaching me how to talk and walk. But since this isn't my first life, I don't need to be taught to do that. I still remember how my life worked before.

And that's the reason why I have to destroy this world.

Create a new world. A world where I become the ruler. A world without wars, without criminals, without death. There is only laughter, happiness, and flying bunnies.

A woman suddenly stops me. She is wearing an armor and holding arrows. Her pointy ears and golden hair remind me of the elves I used to see in movies.

She looks me up and down then says something I can't understand. I guess the language in this world is different from the language on earth.

[Ancient language detected]

[Do you want to enable automatic translator?]

[<Yes>         <No>]

Yes.

"Are you an enemy?"

The woman says one more time. Now I can understand what she says.

"No," I say in English, but she seems to understand.

"Get out of here. We have no intention to kill you."

"Who are you?"

The woman's eyebrows rises, she looks surprised. She then stares at the underground floor behind me, which is now being a ruin.

"Is that a prison? How long were you locked in there?"

"As long as I can remember."

Her brow furrows as she points at the phoenix crest on her uniform.

"I'm Kiran's army. I'm here to kill your King."

"Not my King."

She nods. I don't know if it's because she's seen prisoners so many times or because she doesn't see me as a threat, she believes that I'm not part of Amenus' army.

"Go!"

She steps away and goes in the direction where the sound of explosions came from. I follow her, but a heavy feeling hit me as I approach the turn. In the middle of the ruined palace hall, a dragon spit fire.

The dragon emits the same dark aura as Amenus's. I can't feel his presence except from it. Could it be him? Did he turn into a dragon?

"Hey! Don't stay here! It's dangerous! Go!" That woman pushes me.

I can't run. I have to kill him. I'm not sure if the dragon is really Amenus. But whatever it is, as long as it is related to Amenus, I will kill them all.

Everything suddenly goes silent. Anger seeps into me and takes over my whole body. The dragon sees me and sprays me with blue flames. I still walk closer to him, the fire doesn't hurt me in the slightest.

The dragon let out a giant fireball from his mouth. I catch it and throw it in any direction. Amenus' aura becomes stronger the moment I touch the fireball. All the memories of what he did to me in my previous life comes flooding back.

I clench my fists, there is a shiver in my body that make me impatient to kill the dragon. I have to kill him, I have to shed his blood. Just like the blood of my siblings on the hands of Amenus. I will kill him the same way.

The dragon finally fly and comes towards me very quickly. I catch his head and make him stop forcibly. His head can't move because I'm holding it, but his tail is wagging right and left frantically, trying to escape.

I throw him into the ruins of the palace walls. He is silent for a moment, not moving. I run to him and again catch his head.

"Kkeeuukk!"

He lets out a disgusting voice. I pull his head from his body and it comes off easily. Black blood splatters on the floor, drenching my body and covering my face.

I throw his head carelessly when the dragon doesn't move anymore. He's dead.

I wait for a while. Amenus' aura is gone and he doesn't appear. Damn it. The dragon isn't Amenus. But where's he now?

I must kill Amenus.

Die. Die. Die.

He must die by my hands.

[You have killed the Dragon of Abyss!]

[Reward: Dragon Stone]

[Dragon Stone will help you absorb the power of Dragon of Abyss into skills]

The system brings back my senses. Dragon Stone it says. What is it?

The dragon's body suddenly shatters, turning into black smoke that covers my vision. Amidst the black smoke, a rock appears. It looks like a diamond, shining in the dark. I think this is called Dragon Stone.

[Press it to your chest to absorb the stone]

I do as the system commands. The stone suddenly disappears into my chest, as if it has just been absorbed.

[Convert Dragon Stone to a skill]

[WARNING! YOUR DISASTER CORE HAS BEEN STOLEN!]

I never saw a magic skill from twenty years ago in my status window. Now that I'm a magic user, I can get stronger. My chances of killing Amenus are getting bigger.

"Hero!"

The loud cheers startle me. The cheers make a huge movement in the middle of this collapsing palace, clouds of dust are flying everywhere. I turn towards the sound.

"Hero! Hero!"

The sound grows louder as my vision becomes clearer. When the black smoke is completely gone, I notice it.

There are hundreds of people standing there, looking at me in amazement. While hundreds of other people lay lifeless, the rest are seriously injured and trying to survive.

I don't know who they are but they look like elves and have the phoenix crest like the women earlier.

An old man with one hand approaches me. His eyes are teary, showing such great happiness. His one hand holds mine. I can feel his body shaking and cold. His injuries are too severe, he will definitely die soon.

"Thank You." He's crying.

Everyone smiles at me as if I'm something they have been waiting for.

"You must be a Hero sent by God to save the world!" The old man says.

Oh. That's the reason why they look happy.

I remove my hand from him and step back.

I'm not. I'm not a Hero.

I'm a disaster. I'm here to destroy their world.
