The Warriors: The Legend of Dragoon

Chapter 32

The gang was in Indels Castle where they heard a story about the Dragon Campaign and were about to go into a room with a great view

The gang was in Indels Castle and talked with King Albert for a bit until Dart had a question for Noish

Well, i take back the request. But...one more thing. Dart said

What is it? King Albert said

I would like to ask a question to Minister Noish. Dart said

Ask me anything, son. My head is filled with all the legends and history of the Continent of Endiness. Noish said

I was on a journey to pursue the Black Monster. Dart said

The Black...Monster...? Noish said

Yes. Dart said

You mean...? Noish said

The monster that attacked Neet 18 years ago. Dart said

Oh. Noish said

Yes. Dart said

What about it? Noish said

The only thing i know is that he deprived me of my parents and my hometown. Dart said

Hmm! You were a victim of the devil! Noish said

That's right. Dart said

So what do you want to know? Noish said

I want to hear everything! Dart said

Everything? Noish said

Yes! Please tell me about it! Dart said

Hmm, there is hardly any information left. Noish said

What? Dart said

Everything that was related to him was reduced to ashes. Noish said

Really? Dart said

Yes. Noish said

Oh. Dart said

Isn't there anything you can tell us? Batman said

Well...there is one thing. Noish said

What is it? Batman said

The only thing i know is that the Black Monster is called the devil that disobeyed the great existence, and it is also known for devouring the god. Noish said

Devouring the 'god'? Dart said

Really? Punk said

Yes, and surprisingly, it shows up in history beginning 11,000 years ago. Noish said

11,000 years ago was the time the Dragon Campaign ended. King Albert said

You're exactly right, Your Majesty. Instead, i will tell you the story of the Dragon Campaign. Noish said

A story of the Dragon Campaign? Punk said

Yes. Noish said

Tell us the story. Batman said

Very well. Noish said

(Story of the Dragon Campaign)

As if they were gods, Winglies ruled over all living creatures and used them as slaves. The enslaved suffered terrible domination and injustice. Their anger turned to a flame of fury; then, a gust of wind blew throughout the lands, spreading the flame to a blazing fire. The wind was Emperor Diaz. Seven incarnations of Dragons served the emperor. Their bravery inspired people to take up arms. Thus began the Dragon Campaign. It was a harsh war. Both people and Winglies suffered countless injuries and fatalities. After a long period of suffering, it was the humans who acquired the future. The age of humans had begun.

(Story of the Dragon Campaign ends)

Holy crap. Punk said

Interesting. Batman said

Oh my. Sophitia said

The Black Monster appeared after the Dragon Campaign. Dart said

It would appear so. Noish said

Hmm... Dart said

What is it, Dart? Shana said

Nothing it's just... Dart said

Just what? Shana said

Well... Dart said

After listening to the story Dart started to think until a man entered the throne room

Your Majesty! the Praetorian of Basil said

What is it? King Albert said

Excuse me, sir! It's time for the war meeting! the Praetorian of Basil said

It is? King Albert said

Yes, Your Majesty. the Praetorian of Basil said

I see. Tell them we will come soon. King Albert said

Right away, Your Majesty. the Praetorian of Basil said

The man then left the throne to tell soldiers about the war meeting

What was that about? Punk said

It's time for the war meeting. King Albert said

The war meeting? Punk said

Yes. King Albert said

Oh. Punk said

Dart? Shana? Everyone? This war will be a particularly harsh one for those who no longer have a home to return to. King Albert said

Really? Sophitia said

Yes. The castle is very quiet now. It is the best place to think about your future. King Albert said

Oh. Sophitia said

But, this is our first time in a castle. Shana said

Well, there is a place with a great view next to this room. Go enjoy yourself. King Albert said

The view from the castle...i see! Please excuse me! Shana said

Shana goes out onto the balcony to see the view

Shana wait! Dart said

And she's gone. Punk said

She is so hasty...Please excuse us, too. Dart said

The others went to join Shana on the balcony

A few minutes later

The gang goes onto the balcony as the war meeting begins while also watching Dart and Shana talk for a bit

From here, we can see all of Basil. Might we even be able to see Seles? Dart said

Seles is over the mountain. Besides, we cannot see it anyway because we are so far... Shana said

Yeah, no kidding. Dart said

I hope everybody is safe. Shana said

I'm sure they are okay. Dart said

While the gang watched Dart and Shana talk for a bit Lavitz entered the room

Yes, they are. Lavitz said

What? Dart said

According to the brief by my aide, most of the people in the village are safe. Lavitz said

Really? I am relieved to hear that. But, it will take time to rebuild the village. Dart said

Is it really that bad? Lavitz said

Yes. It is. Dart said

We've been there. And it's a mess. Punk said

I see. Lavitz said

Still, good...i can meet everybody again. Shana said

Really? Punk said

Yes. Shana said

Oh. Punk said

But, we have bad news. Lavitz said

Bad news? Dart said

Yes. Lavitz said

What's the bad news? Batman said

Sandora is now readying itself to attack us. Lavitz said

They are? Sophitia said

Yes. And also they are planning to use the Dragon for the offensive on Hoax. Lavitz said

A Dragon!? If they release that monster in the battle, it will be total genocide! Dart said

Exactly. Lavitz said

So what do we do? Dart said

Our role, as the Knighthood, is to stop it. Lavitz said

Yeah. I know. Dart said

Good. Which is why i'm heading to Hoax now. Lavitz said

What will you do when you get there? Dart said

Join the fight of course. Lavitz said

What? Dart said

Maintaining the battle line will determine the future of Basil. Lavitz said

Hmm... Dart said

What is it? Lavitz said

I have lived only for myself. I believed it was something i had to complete by myself even if i had to leave Shana and the people of the village behind. Dart said

Dart... Shana said

But, when i came back, look at this. I almost lost my hometown again! Dart said

So what are you saying? Lavitz said

What i'm saying is this...Lavitz? Dart said

Yes? Lavitz said

I am going to Hoax with you! Dart said

What? Lavitz said

Yeah. Dart said

But...why? Lavitz said

I don't want to see any more senseless bloodshed! Dart said

What about the Black Monster? Lavitz said

We have to end the war first! Dart said

Are you sure? Lavitz said

Yes. Dart said

But... Lavitz said

Don't worry about it, Lavitz. Shana said

What? Lavitz said

Once Dart makes up his mind, he never changes it. Shana said

I see. Lavitz said

Of course, i am going too. Shana said

What? Lavitz said

I cannot stand the war either. I can fight too! Shana said

But... Lavitz said

We're coming too. Punk said

You guys too? Lavitz said

That's right. Punk said

We will help. Batman said

And we will stop this war. Sophitia said

You guys... Lavitz said

Everything is determined and now we have to prepare. Dart said

Th, then, let's go to Bale now! Lavitz said

Alright. Dart said

But first... Lavitz said

What is it? Punk said

We need to prepare and rest. Lavitz said

Prepare and rest? Punk said

Yes. Lavitz said
