The history A Ke had summarized was more or less the same as the history Liszt had pieced together in his heart.
It sounded incredible that dragons and elves had been born from humanity's will, yet on closer thought, there were traces to follow everywhere.
Elves could form contracts with humans; so long as an elf's teeth touched human blood, the contract was immediately sealed.
Though dragons did not form such simple contracts with humans, the Dragon Tooth Platforms on their backs had naturally existed for humans to ride.
It was practically a thoughtful piece of artificial design.
"So there was originally a great dragon in this world, and only after it died did all these richly varied dragons and elves appear." He sighed in admiration, yet felt somewhat uncomfortable inside—or rather, as though he had fallen from a lofty, righteous image into that of a great villain.
According to the murals, the Magic Dragon was clearly on the side of justice. As the totem of the Moon Empire and Sun Empire, it had supported humanity's magical civilization.
The Holy Dragon's side, which had opened the Moon Teleportation Array, had played the role of villain.
Now, Liszt was nurturing the Smoke Dragon within his mind, which was tantamount to becoming one with it. Since the Smoke Dragon was a villain, joining with it naturally made him a villain too. What worried him even more was that the Magic Dragon was sleeping. If it awakened, would it come looking for trouble again?
"Back then, the Magic Dragon killed every Holy Dragon. Apart from the Fairy Dragon escaping, the Invisible Dragon, Emerald Dragon, Dusk Dragon, and Smoke Dragon all fell on the spot... Now the newly nurtured Invisible Dragon, Bard, has become my companion, while the Smoke Dragon is practically my incarnation.
