384 Chapter 384 Special Kind of Dragons

Wena smiled wide while Zara huffed as she was still doubtful of this decision.

"Zara, the egg has cracked, and the baby has to crawl out," Wena said. "You have no other choice but to agree with this."

Zara sighed before she landed on the ground. She hugged her long-time friend. "You old hag just love to piss me off."

Wena hugged her back. "You're an old hag as well."

"You both are old hag." Aldred nodded.

Wena and Zara glared at him.

Mareona kneed him in the nuts, making Aldred yelp in pain.

"Sorry about that. He can be out of control sometimes." Mareona apologized to the two women.

Aldred scratched the back of his head, feeling wronged. Trying to avert the topic, he said: "So what do we do now?"

"We wait," Wena said. "When the three moons turned white, that is when your destination will appear."

"Turns white? I have never seen the moons do that. When will that happen?"

"Tomorrow."

…

On the vast ocean, under the cover of night, a massive fleet of ships crashed against the waves.

In their ranks, ten powerful motherships led the fleet, and one of them in particular was so gigantic that no one would believe it was possible to create a ship that big.

A man with large built stood on top of that ship. With thick arms, and chiseled jaw, his deathly gaze set forward. The wind failed to move his long, thick braided hair that reached his chest.

"My lord. We have found another continent." The soldier knelt.

"Was this the fifth that we encountered?"

"Yes, lord Brago. You have conquered the other four, so this will be the fifth."

He narrowed his eyes into the distance. "I can smell them here."

"Will we finally encounter them on this continent, my lord?"

"I have to make sure." Brago raised his long bullhook and pulled the neck of a dragon, chained on the bow of the mothership.

The dragon was awaken. It moved violently, trying to break the chain. But Brago punched its head, and stared into its eyes.

The dragon stopped moving and cowered in fear.

"Show me where they are."

The dragon looked ahead. Its ears vibrating.

Brago's eyes widened. "They are here. We found them. Hahaha!"

He turned towards his men. "Tell every ships to sail as fast as they can. I want this fleet to arrive at sunrise."

His lips curled into a grin.

…

The wind blew Aldred's hair as he caressed the fine scales of the dragon he rode on.

"Where are we going?" Aldred asked Zara.

"You will see."

The dragons passed a mountain, and then entered a large opening. It was dark at first, but after they went deeper, thousands of crystals lit up the cave. Dragons looked up from their wooden stand. Some were still sleeping while others were feeding their young.

Mary was amazed by this sight.

Krista's eyes lit up when she saw baby dragons feasting on a basket of fruits.

"You have been taking care of them," Aldred said to Zara.

He expected a reply from her, but she said nothing.

"Don't worry about her," Wena said. "She can be rather protective of these dragons. They are family to her."

"I understand. Family is very important."

Aldred considered family to be his everything. Especially his father, mother, and sister. He would die for them without hesitation.

The dragon landed on a stone platform, and everyone jumped down.

"What are we doing here?" Aldred asked.

"Do you believe in god, Aldred?" Wena asked.

"I do believe they exist, but I don't worship any of them."

After all, he had met some of the powerful gods that had fought his father before.

"Dragons have their own god as well. Come, let me show you."

Aldred raised an eyebrow. "So you guys worship statues as well?"

Wena laughed. "You will see."

They walked through the large tunnel. Around them were dragons, walking towards the same direction as them.

After a few minutes of walking, Aldred was greeted with a bright shine of light coming from outside with huge waterfall spilling down.

The dragons flew in and out of the water with fish in their mouth. Below, there was a giant lake that seemed to be the center of this ecosystem with all kinds of plants surrounding it. These plants spread to the wall of the cave and went all the way up. Dragons would occasionally bit on these berries as snack.

"I see." Aldred's eyes lit up. "Your god must be this lake."

"You're not quite right," Wena said. She pulled him to her side, and then pushed him down to one knee.

"Are we going to pray?"

"More like bowing, but you can say that. Now, keep your head down, and don't say anything."

Aldred obeyed the instruction, and saw his wives kneeling at the edge of his vision. He also saw the dragons coming down and bowing their heads.

The scene was then filled with the loud sound of the crashing waterfall. Everything else was silent.

A few seconds later, something burst out of the lake below, splashing large body of water in every direction.

That was when a humongous dragon flapped its wings, sending powerful wind that blew his hair.

The dragons bowed even deeper while Aldred was too mesmerized by the creature's majestic appearance.

The antennas on the dragons vibrated as it stared ad Wena.

Wena raised her head, and looked at the dragon in the eye. She seemed to be communicating with the dragon with telepathy.

After a few minutes, the large, white dragon glanced at Aldred. It blew a icy mist at him, making his hair freeze into ice.

"What did it do? Does that mean it likes me?"

"She just spit at you."

"Why?"

"No reason."

"Uh…" Aldred thought there would be some kind of meaningful gesture.

"So what do we now?"

"The dragons agreed to help you," Wena said.

"Which mean?"

"We can set off by tomorrow when the three moons turned white." Wena nodded.
