Yukiko realizes ...
She decides ...
Chapter 6 - Invading army
When she detects that one of the bodies belonged to Yuugi, she roars with extreme fury when she is overcome by unprecedented anger and begins to advance against the invaders wishing to apply to them the pain she felt and when she was preparing to kill those who attacked the village and killed his friend, Yukiko awakens.
The albino was sweating cold while the pain of seeing his friend's lifeless body and her despair in addition to the extraordinary fury she felt at that moment still persisted in her made her tremble at the extreme fury that took her.
After looking around for a few minutes and where she was after she was able to calm down, she registers the fact that she had just woken up.
"A nightmare within a nightmare?" She murmurs to herself.
Yukiko asks herself as she was thoughtful because it was so real that it took her a few minutes to realize that it was just a nightmare although an uncomfortable feeling persisted in her because something inside her claimed that it was not a nightmare.
The dragon walks to a crystalline stream close to where it was to be able to drink water when it observes that its crescent moon symbol shone although it was gradually reducing the glow until the shine ceased and as it was said the fact that it had shone a feeling arises in her chest and a strange sensation that it was not just a nightmare, with her hearing that voice inside her that said it was not a nightmare since she woke up.
A thought arises in her mind making her feel that it was a vision of something that was going to happen and that same feeling throbbed intensely in her making her carefully analyze the scenes remembering having watched the sky within the dream and looking at the sky widens your eyes because the moment that your visions would occur would soon be happening because it wouldn't be long before dawn.
After all, something claimed that that vision would come true that day and it was something so intense that there was no way to ignore it once she recognized her dream as a premonition.
There was still a tiny doubt and to effectively silence her she wished to confirm whether her dream was premonitory or not.
Therefore, it spreads its powerful wings and ascends to the sky as fast as it could after propelling its body upwards using its powerful hind legs to give impulse.
When it rises considerably in the air she makes her blue eyes shine and begins to scan the land below her until she is appalled to see hundreds of soldiers who were marching towards the village taking advantage of an access to the south where several stones had fallen forming a solid path with the albino remembering that it was the last snowfall in the mountains near the village.
Quickly, she descends into the sacred forest and leaves it surprising everyone when she advances through the center of the village in its true form with Yuugi watching her pass by her side. He had just dismounted from a black colt and then ran to his childhood friend followed by the animal.
"-What happened?" He asks in a mixture of confusion and concern.
After all, he was appalled by her unexpected conduct that halted his advance out of the village when he heard his worried voice and looking at the young man observes that his friend was wearing a high priest outfit identical to his parent's while Yoru was at your side:
The dragon does not respond as she turns to everyone.
"An army is approaching this place and there are powerful Gods with them. Many Gods" Everyone is appalled to learn that other Gods were going to invade the place. "We Gods will buy you time to escape! In my name, my mother and the other Gods, we authorize the use of the Sacred Forest so that you can escape. Go north. There is a narrow trail across the river. "
Yukiko had lied using their religion so that they would be terrified because he wanted them to flee as soon as possible and not to blame their Gods for not preventing the invasion.
After all, with them mistakenly thinking that there were other Gods, they could not condemn them for not protecting them. It was necessary for them to have this respect for the Gods because they would make them obey the High Priest and his son in order for there to be an orderly escape.
Those in the square were appalled while Yuugi's father approached the dragon he believed to be the daughter of the moon goddess.
"Can they find the village?" He asks respectfully.
"Yes. We will slow them down. Take just what you need for the long journey and run away."
When she realizes that most of them are too shocked to move, she clenches her fists and sits on her hind legs, which were much larger than those in the front.
"Dare you disobey me ?! Who do you take me from?" She exclaims, pretending to be a Goddess, trying to give a superior, deep and authoritative tone that did not accept any challenge.
The tone used and the words awaken the villagers from their stupor and they begin to run desperately to their homes in order to get only what they need, including the animals they needed for the journey, while bringing groceries in addition to the animals needed to raise them for meat, eggs or milk with Yukiko being satisfied to see that they started to move when they accepted the gravity of the situation and when being satisfied, she smiles and consents.
"I'm going with you. I can't leave you!" Yuugi speaks with determination as she looks at her friend.
"Go, please. You won't stand a chance against them. In addition, you need to organize the escape in addition to guiding them. As they believe in the Gods, they will listen to you and your father, ensuring greater control of the escape and less chance of revolt or leadership problems.
"You also won't have any chance. I don't think I can win a big army. We are too young, yet."
"Please do what I ask ..." She approaches him as she speaks and then spreads her wings while she folded her back legs to take impulse. "Goodbye friend."
Yukiko takes flight by moving his powerful wings flying towards the army and then descending his flight advancing against them while narrowing his eyes while using his special vision to bring his vision closer to them and the premonitory dream he had only increased his fury she wishing to smash them all because she had not allowed any of them to live.
The general who led the troops is appalled to follow the finger of one of his soldiers who displayed the purest terror on his face when he points upwards.
After all, it was a sizable dragon advancing on them and that would astonish anyone.
Yukiko had made a dizzying dive and then spread his wings and jaws, blowing a freezing blast that turned humans into ice cubes.
The horses neighed prancing on their hind legs only because of the presence of a dragon. Only Yoru could be calm in her presence.
The sight of Yukiko filled the hearts of countless soldiers with terror, causing chaos to arise among them, causing the general to gallop from among his men, keeping a firm grip on the reins to control his stallion as he raged to return to their previous training and to face the dragon as it struggled to reorganize the troops in the face of Yukiko's unexpected presence while the albino continues overflight attacking them relentlessly with many screaming in terror, pain or agony:
"A dragon!"
"It really is a dragon! Save your lives!"
Many soldiers are seized by the purest fear because unlike Yuugi and the residents of that village, in the culture of those soldiers there were dragons and this made them fear even more and in a way that was too drastic.
After all, the dragons in their culture were powerful and relentless beasts with no mortal being able to deal with them who destroyed everything in their path.
With his voice and firm stance, the general begins to distribute orders, managing to reduce the fear in the hearts of many while ordering the archers to attack her, causing a shower of arrows to fly towards Yukiko while the spearmen throw sharp spears. against albino.
An intense freezing wind is generated by her wings to dispel all objects thrown at her and even though some of them managed to make contact with her body, they were unable to pierce her coat.
However, this invulnerability was altered when they decided to use arrows, spears and flaming sticks that when they reached it started to do some damage and when the soldiers realized this weakness they started to intensify the firing of weapons wrapped in fire.
Despite the flaming weapons attack she was managing to suppress the army by causing hundreds of deaths and some chaos remaining from the terror of the sight of a dragon with Yukiko relentlessly brandishing his club by flying soldiers' bodies through the air with them crashing into the air. stones and trees. Some had their bodies pierced when they hit sharp edges of wood when they did not fall on a cliff nearby with the fact that human limbs were flying through the air because they were shattered by sharp claws, clubbing at the tip of the tail or the impact of bodies against the rocks after being thrown dozens of meters in the air, causing a crimson rain or jets that sprayed blood.
The sight of body parts flying through the air beyond the rain of blood from the splashes from the shattered bodies or that were blown up by the impact when they were launched dozens of meters into the air before it hit something increased the terror of the soldiers and the The sight of a dragon only terrified them even more.
While trying to eliminate as many soldiers as possible Yukiko tried to look at the village for a few moments using her special vision to bring her vision closer to what she wanted, being relieved to see that the villagers were considerably far away and that if they kept that pace they would never be caught.
The albino continues its relentless attack to allow the villagers as much time as possible to be as far away from the village as possible.
As the general spotted the dragonfly flying over his army in an attempt to eliminate as many soldiers as possible, he was overcome by an intense fury that canceled out any initial fear that took his heart when he saw a dragon in the flesh in front of him.
As he continued to urge his men to attack her, fighting to make them overcome fear in their hearts with the sight of her and the blood as well as limbs and bodies flying through the air, he thought of some way to defeat a being considered impossible to be. defeated by simple humans.
As he watched her fly over the adjacent trees along with the memory of her apparent weakness with hot objects or wrapped in flames, the general has an idea and smiles victoriously.
He beats his horse with his heels, forcing the stallion to run close to some trees that would be ideal to put his plan into action and when approaching the bigger one he lights a fire next to her after getting off his horse.
The animal leans desperately on its hind legs when it sees the dragon nearby and after avidly fighting it manages to flee the place by breaking the branch that its reins had been trapped with the animal joining the other fleeing horses. It was the same with the other horses, making it difficult for their respective riders to control them due to the strong fear that took them when they saw Yukiko.
The general notices his horse's act but decides not to go after the animal because he needed to stop the dragon before his entire army was wiped out by it.
After taking two swords, one flat and one curved, he puts both on fire and only removes them from the fire when he notices that they were red because of the intense temperature.
Then, carefully arranging them on his body so that he would not be burned by the blazing blades he skillfully climbs the tree and waits patiently for her approach.
He knew that his remaining commanders were working hard to make soldiers attack for more fear than they felt when they saw a dragon in the flesh in front of them.
Unaware of the trap that had been set against her, Yukiko ends up inadvertently approaching the tree where the general who was hiding was found and when he gets close to him he takes impulse and jumps on his back, sticking the sword that was curved in his flesh at the same time who started to strike with his other sword trying to stay away from her long neck so that she could not use his jaws against him who was trying to reach the junction of her wings to interrupt the albino's flight.
The blades were red from the scorching heat and from the blood of the dragon that plastered the blades, especially the one that easily cut its fur while burning it. Her red blood was visible in the armor of the man who smiled victoriously while her white fur was stained with the crimson blood that dripped from her wounds.
Yukiko roars for the intense pains she felt and even though she was in pain, she refrained from using her club in general because she could end up hitting herself, causing her own fall.
Even among the intense pains that took her albino, she has a plan and before she puts it into practice, she opens her jaws and makes a white mist appear that ends up crystallizing in the form of animals and monsters that had claws, clubs in their tails, sharp wings and fangs. They were creatures created with an ice that was too thick to prevent them from being easily destroyed and that start attacking the soldiers relentlessly by smashing them while several ice birds appeared, whose wings were like a razor with sharp claws and beaks that beheaded the soldiers who tried unsuccessfully to reach them.
The general raises the fiery blade to strike it again while keeping a curved and equally hot sword sunk in her flesh so that he could stay on top of it, wondering why the dragon would not use the club because it would be expected.
After all, he wrongly believed that she was a mere beast because of her tales about dragons.
