Reve smiled, 'It seems like things just got more interesting.'
His guess was that the dragonkin's threat was related to the shards of Sheol. Circe had informed him that all the big organizations were aware of the rumor circulating in Arcadia. However, only those that had an ancient heritage would be aware of the true grimness of this rumor, which is why, despite it having a huge possibility of being fake, they would stop at nothing to find the true source of the rumor.
Dragonkins had been walking the earth for a very long time. Records of them were in scrolls belonging to the era of sins. It wouldn't be implausible for them to still withhold information about the shards of Sheol. Just like how Reve became aware of the elusive objects, some dragonkins would have received the passed-down memories of the ancient dragonkins.
He looked at the young man beside him, "What is it?"
The boy sighed, spilling what was on his mind, "Every feature on that creature's boy fit the description of a dragon. How can you tell that it's a dragonkin?"
"I'm hurt. You disbelieve me? Alright, I will tell you this. There is one undisputed way to distinguish a dragon from a dragonkin. The Dragon Crystal, otherwise known as Vraxe. On a dragonkin's body, this crystal that possesses the power of the dragon force is visible on their forehead."
The young man had already spotted the crystal a while ago, but when Reve spoke about it, he gained further clarifications as to what it was. Now, he had no doubt that the creature was a dragonkin.
Still, it didn't help the terrifying feeling he felt when looking at the dragonkin.
Thy shall not stare at god!!
Those words best described the horrific feelings that brewed in the heart of all the humans.
Reve sympathized with them. He quite understood what they were going through.
Granted, he was not in the same situation as them. After years of dealing with a self-proclaimed god and lots of peak existences, he had already built up a sort of immunity towards things like this.
The aura generated by the dragonkin had no psychological effect on him. Of course, if the creature used its aura proactively, it would be a different case.
"It is admirable that you can stand tall in the face of a dragonkin," commended Reve.
"I could say the same for you," replied the young man.
Reve just smiled in the face of that reply. He didn't try to explain how he was fundamentally different from any human nearby.
With a gleam on his lips, he extended his hands, "I go by Reve."
"I'm Silas. If I may ask, you are not from around here, are you?" said the young man.
Reve rolled his eyes as soon as he heard that, "Again with this question. I don't suppose my appearance is too foreign, is it?"
"No. it's your…..vibe, I would say. It feels strange, oozing with such enthusiasm that you would only see in the eyes of a foreigner," explained Silas.
"Is that so...?" wondered Reve.
He guessed perhaps he was excited about seeing all parts of Narva. He hadn't been this excited since he confirmed his tutelage under Circe.
Reve switched the topic to something he found interesting, "You are a student of NIRA, aren't you?"
"Let me guess. My mannerism," Silsd spoke with his eyes curved.
"Yes," replied Reve.
He didn't say anything after and simply focused back on the dragonkin who had paused its rampant roars.
Reve's sensory skills picked up on an unknown aura rushing towards them. He quickly understood that that was the reason for the dragonkin's strange behavior.
The monstrous creature roared one last time and flapped its wing. It disappeared into the sky, releasing the unbearable pressure that it fixed on the humans.
After it left, a group of humans rushed into the scene. They wore fine uniforms that were highlighted by the silver lake symbol drawn on their backs.
With a few hand-to-hand coordination, they form an aura that dispelled the remnant pressure left by the dragonkin.
With a foxy smile on his lips, Reve thought inwardly, 'So, this is the civil defense force of Narva. They appear more fashionable than I imagined.'
While it was a fact that Narva had long abandoned their military zeal, it would be unwise of them to not build a semi-military force that was responsible for protecting the king's subject.
That was the exact purpose of the civil defense force.
Each member was the cream of the top of their generation. Each one of them could take down no less than five magical beasts all by themself...…or so did the people of Narva herald.
Looking at them right now, Reve knew that some of the doubtful praise rang true.
Call it a predator's instinct or whatnot, but Reve could feel a threatening aura surrounding him.
It was at that moment and time did he understand that he was wrong to belittle the people of Narva. He had originally thought that his missions would be a walk in the park but now, he had to reconsider.
Just as he was deep in thoughts, a murky voice reached out to him, "Young lad, are you okay?"
Reve swept his eyes around to meet one of the civil defense warriors, "Yes, sir. Never felt better. Bless Xoris!"
His pretense was flawless and the experienced warrior failed to catch a whiff of it.
He replied just before leaving, "Yes, bless Xoris. Since I have confirmed you do not hold any wounds, you are free to leave."
"Thank you, sir."
Yet, Reve was not ready to leave. He walked around many times. His eyes were trained on the warriors as he tried to analyze them, extracting what little information he could.
After a while, the marketplace was becoming void of humans. No one in their right mind would opt to stay and continue their activities after first-hand witnessing the wrath of a dragonkin. Hence, Reve followed the crowd and exited the scene.
Today was one hell of a blast!
