Chapter64. Liana’s POV ( Dragon Souls)
She morphed into the most beautiful woman that my eyes had ever seen.
She gathered the twigs scattered here and then, then made a tiny pyramid out of that.
” Do you want to join me? ”
she asked with a voice so soft and tender, that there was no way for a refusal. I went ahead and sat in front as she blew fire on that pyramid , creating a bonfire.
” So Liana, do you feel them yet? You should be preparing yourself. The effect of the Dragon Ash has began. They will be swarming to this place or anywhere for that matter, wherever you are. ” she said.
” Who are the they? Why should I be worried? ”
her beauty was mesmerizing. I asked the question quite uninterested more engrossed into admiring her serenity.
” The Dragon Ashes have been blown over you. You do know Dragons are mighty creatures. We have enormous powerhouses in our bodies and also embedded into our souls. Most Dragons are born with similar amount of this power. With similar potential, without any discrimination. The level of power a Dragon has depends totally on how much of that treasure trove he had been able to unlock.
Anyways, the important thing for you to know here is that Dragon souls have energies. It’s illegal to keep Dragon remnants after one died. Ashes are strictly forbidden as it carries the Dragons’ entire essence. It can be manipulated to unleash evil powers. The one who was after Damian, did exactly that with you. He cursed you with haunting. Dead souls from the dragon realm will now not leave you alone, till your body finds its balance and you are able to regain your consciousness. ”
Wow! That was intensive.
So I was in a cave, in the middle of nowhere, with a beautiful lady dragon and a bunch of zombie dragons were on my tail.
We both turned towards the entrance as a sound disturbed the silence of the place. It was definitely the sound of cracking bones and clicks.
” Liana, this is your fight. I will not be able to do very much here, except for guide. Are you ready? ”
” Ready for what? ”
I was about to ask but even before that she threw at me a dagger.
“Wait, what am I supposed to do with this? ” She did not need to answer.
My hands moved automatically as a swarm of undead Dragon souls lunged in our direction.
Their bones seemed all out of place. Their flesh seemed rotten. Yet they had no stench or smell.
” Why do they look so horrible yet have no smell? ”
I yelled my question at my only saviour, who was also busy kicking them one by one away.
She looked robust and fearless. Gosh, had I not been straight I would have definitely confessed that was in love.
” These are souls Liana. They jabe no physical existence. Their looks come from our own physical state. And yours at present is distorted. You need to fight yourself more than you need to with them. Most human die in this attack because they have no dragon aid . And they focus more on getting rid of these unimportant pests than healing their own selves, resulting in over exhaustion and instant self destruction. ”
I totally understood what she said but the rotten, zombie Dragons were as real as my own knuckles. They gnawed at my flesh where ever they found a spot.
Their blood that splashed all over my face as hair as I tore open their bodies, was also real and it felt wet and slimey on the touch.NôvelDrama.Org © content.
But the female Dragon was right. It was an endless string. The more I killed the more they multiplied. It was loosing battle apparently.
I moved the dagger viciously, moving it constantly in a ‘X’ direction. If gave me a moment to retreat.
I needed to work on what I was advised. I needed to see all of it as an illusion. But it was hard when you constantly felt the aggression and the fear. The wounds those beings inflicted on me, all felt real. The pain, that was the trigger. I needed to turn it off. The more I panicked the more out numbered I was becoming. They could at the point just crush me under their collective weight without doing anything else.
” I need to focus… I need to focus… ”
I was murmuring aloud when the lady dragon turned towars me and said,
” How about Damian? Think of him. Think about him. You might be able to focus! ”
I promptly took the advise but nothing really happened. I found it difficult to think of anything with all the activities going around.
And then, it happened.
A cool minty wind blew right over my face. Af if snatching me away from the firey present, it transported myself to somewhere else.
It worked perfectly in tune with the current need. Slowly but steadily the number of the undead dragon souls, decreased.
” No, Liana, don’t. You know who this person is. ”
How could the dragon lady know what was wrong? I thought only I was the one who felt his touch.
Undoubtedly , it was Lucian. But I could not have been happier at that moment. His taste was sweeping through my senses, erasing every other thought, everything else.
It was like a forbidden temptation but it didn’t matter. It was all in my mind. I needed to do what I needed to do for surviving. Anything that worked. Nothing was wrong when it was a survival situation.
The cool breeze kept caressing me as it kept intoxicating my senses. The taste of that forbidden fruit, I wanted more and more.
Just when I thought it would go like that forever, it suddenly ended.
Pulling me back from my bubble. The panick in my heart immediately resurfaced and along with it did the undead s.
” Oh, my gosh! They are back again! What do I do now?”
This time I held my dagger like a cricket bat, ready to hit the coming bouncers right off the stadium.
