The Villain's Story Chapter [173]One Of The First, Ariel.[2]

Chapter [173]One Of The First, Ariel.[2]

[Ariels PoV]

The appearance of another soul inside His Body.

First, it was James, and then this one.

But why is it so weak, and then so strong?

It truly infuriates me, I can't even see into his powers with my Eyes.

His history, his past, and his purpose previously are all known to me now.

How his existence was just a puppet for the Snake of Jade to control, to make up for his weak soul.

His existence...is mysterious.

And a change in the predicted timelines

And I can not even see into it, his latent potential.

The Mark of Dragons on his back...terrifies even me.

I, Ariel, One of the first Dragons, One of The few Primordial Beings in the universe, The Progenitor of Death, Darkness, Shadow, And Frost...

Because of my inability to see into him, I angered him intentionally so he would use his power, and I would find out about his powers.

My tactic worked.

And I saw a Dragon, A dragon as large as the cosmos itself...

Bigger than even me, a dragon, master of s.p.a.ce, Chaos, And Frost.

Its astral blue scales are the size of stars, The Armour of Frost on his body is the size of Galaxies, And the Mane of Chaos consists of threads that could alone sever Realities.

...what has Ara.n.u.s Created?

What has James Molded?

...

Are those two planning to annihilate us all?

Take everyone down with them???

With this monstrous, uncontrollable beast?

Have they forgotten what Power, limitless power can do?

...when I had become aware of his potential I thought.

It will be even more dangerous if it takes Over.

The Abyss is still wary of the Jade Snake.

...but if this child truly awakens..not even the Chalice of Time will be able to stop him.

If...it takes control of such a being...just what would there be to stop it.

When I realized these things. I thought...

'Should I erase him?'

Erase his soul when I can?

Erase that soul when it has yet to reach maturity.

Erase...it but then the consequences of such an action are too enormous.

I will succeed in erasing a soul that could be an even larger threat than Ara.n.u.s...but what will that do?

The Abyss will still take control of it...and we couldn't even deal with the Abyss-controlled Ara.n.u.s.

If I let it live on and risk it getting taken over by the Abyss.

And it realizes the potential this one carries.

That would spell a disaster even greater than Ara.n.u.s.

And we...could somehow fight against Ara.n.u.s...albeit we lost...there was some hope.

But this?

That Cosmic Dragon?

We...even if the eldest Dragons, the first dragons that have hidden themselves, or are bound by their restrictions, and the G.o.dbeasts Ally themselves.

We can't...defeat it.

If it was with Ara.n.u.s, Yes, we could defeat him...but those sons of b.i.t.c.hes are too delusional for joining sides...EVEN WHEN THE d.a.m.n UNIVERSE COULD BE AT STEAK!

They choose to not set aside their differences, but risk getting the universe destroyed over their silly pride.

...what do I do?

All dragons...except one gave up hope.

And even the one that continued fighting...in the end shared the same fate as Ara.n.u.s.

In the end...I concluded.

With Ara.n.u.s, we have a low chance to fight him off...but with him, the chance is zero.

I need to..annihilate this young dragon before it is too late.

... I will make sure his soul enjoys a painless death and a peaceful Afterlife.

I roused my mana, preparing myself...to end a young dragon's life.

How far we have fallen...how far 'I' have fallen.

The realm listened to my commands...to kill this young Dragon.

To kill it, and erase the soul before The Abyss learns of its true potential.

To erase the soul from existence itself before the Abbys can take over it...I will not let another Ara.n.u.s Or Ardenius Occur.

Those two dragons have suffered too much, I will not let another suffer their fate.

The mana of Death fought against his Astral Mana and eventually dominated it.

I raised him into the sky with my death mana and prepared for the process.

If I kill him now, The Abyss will immediately take over and soon this realm of mine will be swarmed by the armies of the Abyss.

I will die from this ordeal, but I will give the world a chance with Ara.n.u.s, the cosmic dragon I saw will be far too powerful for anyone to face.

*Kaahk*.

I heard his cries as my mana invaded his body.

"Hey! What are you doing?!"

...

...

...

*Bam!**Bam!*

I could hear the little one slamming its fist on my snout...and then I wondered.

"Don't kill Boss! I'll hate you."

Am I doing the right thing?

Stealing one's chance at life?

"Hey?!"

"Grandma!"

...

...

...

I could only see my children's faces, the little ones face as well.

My children, and my grandchild.

...how would I feel if someone took their life?

No, I already know how that feels...

,"Grandma!"

"Kaghk!"

My grandchild's pleas, the young dragons painful screams.

...

...

...

I stopped my mana...and I inscribed a seal on the young dragons body.

A pitiful attempt of mine to hide what I had done.

I had sent him off immediately, before I could change my mind.

[Do not worry Child, I merely gave him a gift.]

I lied to my Grandchild.

Why are you so loyal to him?

I don't think i well ever know.

There was silence between us, and i, stopped holding my head high up, and finally let it rest upon the ground.

...i am truly pathetic.

I couldn't protect my eldest daughter...and here I almost killed her sons benefactor.

[Kazikato, You said you wanted a tattoo of your dragon form on your back, correct?]

"Umm...yeah?"

[Show me your back, I will inscribe a seal that will remove itself when you awaken your Dragon Mark.

It will have some of my powers within, Use them well.]

In the end...i think I just want to spend some time with my family...and not lose them.

The end will come no matter what,...

And I hope to make at least some memories with this grandchild of mine.

A/N: I found an image online, which I really think Ariel should be like.

I've posted it on the discord, join it to see it, along with Alans Fanart and other images of the Dragons.
