Dragon Order of Flame - Volume 1 - Chapter 5.1

Chapter 5 Part 1

Luke was once again dreaming of a past that wasn’t his.

It was a very long time ago, much further into the past than when he was born.

Clearly knowing that this was a dream, Luke realized that he was in the shape of an enormous Dragon. He was 60 meters long from head to tail, and was bent forward looking at something. It was a similar feeling to being on top of a cliff and looking downward.

Of course, that dizzy feeling was only being felt because Luke was a human. The original owner of this body Volkar, was used to this feeling and did not feel the same as Luke.

“Dirkus.”

Volkar spoke as he bent forward looking at the existence that was the size of an ant.

“Long time no see. As always, are you still staying here?”

The one that answered with a pleasant voice had a white body and vibrant colored wings. It looked like a big bird, but looked similar to that of a human. It was a type of bird that could not fly, so it lived above unreachable mountains, and was said to be rarer than even elves.

Volkar spoke.

“Every time I see you, your body is always changing.”

“It’s because my partner has changed.”

DIrkus responded with a laugh.

Sharing the same senses as Volkar, Luke was very surprised to be able to see such a small figure in detail. As if grabbing an ant and bringing it close to the eyes, no, even that wasn’t enough. Maybe it was the same feeling as using magic to be able to see it so clearly? Either way, the figure in front of Volkar was very detailed.

‘Such overwhelming senses.’

Waking up from the previous dream that Luke had of Volkar, he realized how pitiful a human’s senses were. It was the same feeling as how a sick person would miss his old body, before he got sick. This was the same situation. No, Luke was able to feel it more vividly now than before, because he had accepted the fact that this was not his dream.

Everything was extremely vivid. Luke could feel even the most subtle of pressure differences, temperature differences, the bugs crawling around the area, and even distinct sounds that are being produced everywhere.

The moment Luke perceived all these things, he fell into a state of panic. He could not believe the fact that Volkar was easily ignoring the massive amount of information coming in, and was just casually speaking to another being.

Volkar asked.

“What’s your reason for coming here today? The multi-dimensional identification experiment that you requested last time won’t have any results for another 428 hours.”

“Ah, I’m not here for that. I came here to give you an invitation.”

“An invitation? To your place?”

“Yes. You know that I gathered some guys and created my own village right?”

“I do.”

“Those guys just formed a large band not too long ago, and they want to throw a concert for me. I figured it would be more fun if there were more people, so I’m going around sending out invitations.”

“How futile.”

“We don’t have anything else to do anyways, unless those devils appear again or a rift opens. Theatre might be a no go for some people depending on preference, but music is something that can be appreciated by everyone. Paldar, Ordus, and Kerban have already agreed to come. Sometimes you just need to switch up the mood. All the other dragons don’t really care for the things that happen in the world, but you’re just too extreme. It’s been 1500 years since I’ve taught you how to create a separate body to travel the world, yet you’ve been stuck here researching magic. Do you really not know how to have fun besides studying and researching magic?”

“No.”

“Hey, you can stay within your hole once in a while, but to have done it for 1500 years, I’m worried you might become a fossil. Either way, I’ve put a lot of my attention to this event, so come. You can scan for the devils with your main body.”

“I’ll think about it.”

“Nothing big is going to happen just for saying yes, so why don’t you just agree to coming? You’ll be able to enjoy a very different type of music, because of the many different species that are joined together in the band. Paldar and I also created a game using our magic. It’s a game where you use magic to create a world similar to this one and to control its ecosystem. With your skills, I’m sure you can make quite a fun world, no?”

“That at least sounds interesting. I’ll go. When is it?”

“…..you really don’t have any interest in anything else besides magic, huh, you neet.”

Dirkus was dumbfound with Volkar as he grumbled to himself. Compared to Volkar, Dirkus felt that he had an abundant amount of emotions.

“It’s going to be exactly 1 month from now. Since you’re going to have to make a duplicate of yourself anyways, make sure you look pretty before you come out. Alright?”

“I’m never going to make a female body. Just thinking of you drooling as you look at my body makes me want to puke.”

“I’m glad to hear that you still have some emotions. I can now relax. Well then, I’ll see you at the time of the event.”

Dirkus smiled as he started using magic. Space magic, which even the human wizards and witches could not grasp the basic foundation of, was released and Dirkus disappeared – leaving Volkar alone within the big open space.

Volkar rubbed his chin and with a serious expression, muttered.

“A neet is it……..”

Hearing what Volkar muttered, Luke could not contain his laughter as he laughed out loud and woke up from this dream.
