As the blood was absorbed into the blade, Illyuken only grew more certain of his guess.
He walked forward slowly, drawing Alec's attention to him.
Instantly, Alec's brows twitched. This man…
This man… was… stunningly pretty. He almost glowed under the damn lights, and Alec felt like he was blinding everyone around him.
Damn!
This… could it be another Main Character?!
Speechless, Alec only stared at him.
Why was he stumbling into a Main Character even here, down in the depths of the company's headquarters?
Why?
Alec couldn't help but complain inwardly in annoyance.
There was no doubt something wrong with this planet. There had to be something more here that he wasn't aware of. After all, someone had even taken Ye Sha away from him. If he wasn't wrong, there was some sort of higher being here…
He didn't even need the System to tell him that he was right. This man was definitely a Main Character.
He was different from the transmigrators who were under the company's control.
First, was the aura. Second, was the luck. Who the fuck knew how lucky he was to be able to randomly attract his subordinates there and somehow get him out?
No doubt that it was two Main Characters meeting that triggered the luck.
The people at the transmigrator academy weren't Main Characters. The classifications of Main Characters were very strict, and Alec was familiar with all of them.
Still, why was a Main Character seemingly interested in him when he hadn't done anything to help him out at all?
Illyuken walked forward and stood in front of Alec, staring at him with subtly judging eyes. He looked at him with intent – though Alec didn't know what he was so intent about.
Alec's Spectres tensed up when they saw the man that they'd rescued so close to their Boss. Even Rosabel, who was enamoured with his good looks didn't let her guard down.
They didn't feel safe at all. After all, both Illyuken and Harou were leagues ahead of them in fighting prowess currently. While they might not be able to take them down, they could definitely buy some time for their Boss at least.
They heard a scoff.
Harou rolled his eyes at the humans' reactions. Only the boss of the humans remained calm. As if his master would hurt their benefactors.
Hearing his scoff, Hayden relaxed.
He didn't know why he relaxed.
He just felt like he could. It went against his usual behaviour, but he couldn't sense any bloodlust from the two men at all. He was willing to give them the benefit of doubt.
Alec peered curiously at Illyuken. The man was just staring at him without any anger or bloodlust. If he was, then it was very well hidden.
Illyuken introduced himself. He bowed relatively low, his black hair cascading down. "We are in your debt. As long as I, Illyuken Nyre remain standing, you and your lot will always be our friends."
Harou also bowed.
He bowed lower than his master, showing the deepest sign of respect. "I, Harou, hereby swear that as long as Hayden and his lot live, I will help to the best of my ability."
Alec quietly raised a brow, but he used his usual smile on them since he didn't know what else to do. He'd never had to make nice with people that his Spectres rescued before.
Regardless, he wouldn't shun a Main Character, after all.
"My name is Alec. Please. Don't stand on ceremony. As long as you are willing, my Spectres will help you should you ever need it as well. We can be considered friends."
Illyuken and Harou straightened up. They showed no signs of weakness, and Alec quietly marvelled.
They were the strongest people that he'd met while he was still on this planet.
Though they were rank six magical beasts, the same rank as Loeri, Loeri was much weaker than them. Loeri was still a baby that was in its growth stage, and it couldn't take a human form yet.
"I'd like to speak to you in private," Illyuken said.
Alec nodded quietly, and the two stepped aside into the Meister's room. The Meister that had just been killed.
"What is it?"
"Your daggers… are they made from a dragon's scale?"
Alec looked at Illyuken sharply. "You can tell?"
"Yes." The admission didn't seem fake. There were few people who knew the characteristics of a dragon's scale, but Illyuken couldn't be more familiar with it.
That sheen…
It reminded him of an old friend. A friend that had suffered the same fate as he had. Never had he been more regretful that the last of them had been betrayed by the very people that he believed in.
Illyuken had been the one who persuaded his friend to give the humans a chance.
The thought of it still filled him with wrathful anger. Anger that surged through his veins, eating at him. For him, who had been in hibernation for most of the time, it felt as if it had happened only yesterday.
Dragons believed in fate and destiny, but…
Right now, Illyuken was no longer willing to leave destiny in someone else's hands. He would take control of his own destiny.
It was both hot and cold at the same time, and looking at it in this youth's hands now…
He knew that it was given willingly. The magic that filled those daggers were more than enough for him to realize that.
It gave him hope that his friend was free.
"That scale was from Haphira, right?"
Alec nodded. His eyes were calm. He suddenly connected something. "You must be Haphira's friend. The one that made the crack between realms, right?"
Illyuken's eyes glinted. "Yes." There was more peace within him now, knowing that his friend was indeed safe.
The dragon held out his hand to Alec. "May I?"
Alec handed his daggers to Illyuken without any hesitation.
The dragon touched the daggers that would never go dull, running his palm along the edge.
Usually, no blade would ever be able to pierce his skin, but this was a blade made out of a dragon's scale.
Golden blood flowed freely, and Illyuken coated both daggers in his blood.
The daggers flashed as they absorbed the blood, gaining a faint golden sheen on top of the silvery-white blade.
Illyuken handed them back to Alec, who took them gratefully.
He sheathed them, realizing that they were much stronger than before after drinking the blood from a dragon. All this while, the blades had been drinking the blood of various creatures and humans, but it was only with Illyuken's blood that it was pushed to the next level.
Alec was curious about something. This Illyuken was considered to be quite good in arrays and seals, yet he was unable to break free from the shackles that had been imposed on him by the company?
Illyuken must have understood what he was thinking from his look, so he spoke before Alec could ask.
"When I was sealed, all memories related to runes were denied to me," he said with a solemn look on his face.
The words immediately alarmed Alec.
A seal that could directly deny someone their memories? How was that possible?
Before, it was already considered remarkable when the brand on Sekai was influenced not to have his thoughts go in a certain direction, but now, Illyuken was telling him that he was directly denied his memories.
It was very shocking and disturbing. It also meant that the other Array Master was more than competent. It wasn't something that he didn't know already, but to have it confirmed…
Illyuken took a look at the human who was deep in thought and left him be. He could feel the other semi-strong beings in this base, and he would wipe them out.
A vicious glint went through his eyes.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
