I Received System to Become Dragonborn

"(What clue?)" Aurdis asked.

Aurdis quickened her footsteps when she heard that from Saeldir.

In an instant, she was already sitting on the chair in front of Saeldir.

"(There is something in the old record that I managed to find,)" Saeldir said.

"(This record says that a specific event would reveal the whereabouts of Calamiteme Vardariana.)"

Aurdis frowned when she heard Saeldir saying those words.

"(What?)" Aurdis asked with a confused look on her face.

"(That is the name of that cursed tree,)" Saeldir answered her confusion.

"(Oh.)" Aurdis nodded. "(You're right. But I'll just call that tree a cursed tree from now.)"

Since that name was too hard to pronounce, Saeldir didn't say anything about Aurdis' choice. He also thought that the name is quite hard to pronounce. Even for the Elven language.

He proceeded to the next discussion.

"(Unfortunately, I don't know what the exact event is.)"

"(So that's all you know about that tree?)" Aurdis stared at Saeldir in disbelief.

"(This is very rare information. Have you forgotten that all the records on that tree have been lost?)" Saeldir said.

"(But... that doesn't really help, does it?)" Aurdis replied.

"(You're wrong. We can still look up the records about any specific event that happen throughout the long history.)"

Aurdis sighed tiredly and her face turned haggard. "(So we have to read more books again?)"

"(You're right. But, but I'm the one who will do that. Because you have other business,)" Saeldir said.

"(Other business?)"

"(Shouldn't you go to Erend's world to get rid of that human's Magic ability?)"

"(Oh!)" Aurdis' face suddenly brightened up again. "(You are right!)"

"(Hey, don't let your guard down. You're not going there for vacation,)" Saeldir said in a warning tone.

But Saeldir's words couldn't shake off the smile on Aurdis' face and the feeling of joy that rose in her heart.

"(Yeah, sure.)" Aurdis nodded quickly.

Saeldir just snorted and smiled a little.

Then he continued to read the book in front of him.

Meanwhile, Aurdis was dreaming.

She seemed to be looking forward to the time when she finally went to Erend's world.

Saeldir had given up on warning her about those forbidden feelings.

Because Saeldir knew that no restrictions would stop Aurdis from harboring her feelings for Erend.

Regarding the risks that occur later, Saeldir can only leave it to the destiny of the universe. And wish the best for Aurdis.

"(Why hasn't he contacted you yet?)" Saeldir asked.

"(I don't know. Maybe he still has business,)" Aurdis replied.

"(I hope whatever business it was, he didn't take too long.)"

"(Yeah. I hope so too,)" Aurdis said while nodding her head.

"(What about Aerchon? Have you met him?)"

"(I already met him,)" Aurdis said.

This time Saeldir looked away from the book and looked at Aurdis.

"(Then, what happened to him?)" asked Saeldir.

"(His situation was beyond our expectations. When I entered his room, Aerchon was meditating,)" Aurdis answered.

Saeldir frowned. "(He was meditating?)"

"(Yes.)" Aurdis nodded. "(I feel his Magic energy overflowing. Why do you think he strengthened his Magic again?)"

Saeldir stared ahead and seemed to think. After a while, he finally spoke.

"(Maybe he already has a resolution. The pain in his heart for uncle Laston maybe has turned into vengeance.)"

"(So now he has the desire to get revenge on Laston?)"

Saeldir shrugged his shoulders at that question.

"(I don't know. Maybe. Otherwise, why does he have to practice his Magic again?)" Saeldir said.

"(And even more, he's been doing that for days, right?)"

If indeed Aerchon had been meditating since the first time he locked himself in his room, that meant he had been meditating for days.

He wouldn't do that if he didn't have a specific goal.

"(But that's good. Meaning, Aerchon won't decide to kill himself anytime soon,)" Saeldir said.

Aurdis could only nod.

She thought back to Aerchon's flustered change in demeanor.

She thought, was it just an illusion, or something real?

But Aurdis immediately shook off that thought.

Once again, she thought that what she saw in Aerchon as a change was only the result of her expectations so far.

"(I'll call Erend to find out everything,") Aurdis said.

Then she stood up from the chair and walked towards the door.

"(Be careful when you get there. You know that your power will decrease drastically, right?)" Said Saeldir.

Aurdis nodded. "(Yes, I know. I'll ask for your help if things get bad.)"

Aurdis let out a wide smile. Even though it was very dangerous if the situation on the other side turned bad. But Aurdis smiled.

So Saeldir could only sigh and agree to that.

"(Sure. Call me right away if something bad happens.)"

Aurdis nodded and then left the room.

Saeldir returned to reading his book to find new clues. Though he wasn't sure if he would find anything else.

Aerchon finally came out of his room.

He tied up his long silver hair which was exactly the same as Aurdis's.

Arondite is on his waist and ready to go. Although Aerchon didn't intend to use it anytime soon.

He saw Aurdis walking from the opposite direction.

"(Are you from Saeldir's room?)" Aerchon asked once Aurdis was already in front of him.

"(Yes,)" Aurdis said. "(Where are you going?)"

"(As you said. I'll help tidy things up,)" Aerchon replied.

Aurdis nodded. "(Good. You do that.)"

After that Aurdis walked past Aerchon.

Aerchon stared at his sister's back. There was a sad look in his eyes.

But a moment later Aerchon sighed and walked in the opposite direction.

'I can't change the past. But I can do something to make the future better.'

Aerchon clenched his fist subconsciously. After that, his footsteps also became faster and wider.

Aurdis arrived at her room. When her hand was about to touch the door, she heard a call from Erend.

'Aurdis, you there?'

Instantly Aurdis' hand stopped mid-air.

'Yes, Erend. I'm here. Is everything ready?'

'Uhh... There's a problem going on here. I feel I should discuss this with you and Saeldir,' Erend said.

Aurdis's brow furrowed deeply. 'Saeldir too?'
