43 The Cry Of Elric (1/2)
What Elric currently wields is a power not supposed to be brought down on earth. But under an unexpected circumstances, it still happened.
The Guardians, who are supposed to protect the humans and the world unexpectedly did not make any significant effort to stop the current disaster.
”Help! Help! There is a giant monster burning houses everywhere!”
”Everyone hide! Quick!~”
”This way! This way hurry! Hurry!”
”Moooomaaaa! huhuhuhhhuuu”
”My baby! Where is my baby!?”
WeeeeooohhWeeeoooooh!~
The whole town is in panic, people are running everywhere in search of safety while firefighters desperately tried their best to put out the fires everywhere. Ambulances continued to crowd the streets, cars, and people made the traffic worst while the rest remains in utter chaos fleeing in depair.
Elric, who has been corrupted by the Dragon Essence and the ultimate suspect of all this terror, had been busy burning countless people to crisp, turning houses into dust and was munching leisurely his midnight snack - an FA-50 Fighter jet which ended up in his mouth after it shot him with missiles.
Elric was the embodiment of a demon at the moment. Not as a Dragon but a merciless Demon!
No one could imagine what is currently going on in his mind.
A couple of tanks came and tried their best to defend against Elric's otherworldly power only to meet their demise under the barrage of his unholy black fire.
Soldiers would creep out of their hideouts only to die in burning agony. Under Elric's devilish eyes, no humans are safe even if they hide from the deepest pit of the world!
***
Inside the unstoppable Dragon's mind, Elric's life essence continued to slowly fade.
The overwhelming Corruption of Hate and Darkness left him unable to control his body and he became a monster that he is now.
”STOP! NOOOO!!!!”
But despite losing the control of his body, a sliver of his spirit and consciousness remains, desperately fighting the darkness corroding his soul.
”PLEASE, I BEG YOU! GOD! HELP ME!! PLEASE, SOMEBODY!”
Desperately asking for God, Elric cried in his thought for every life that became a victim from his uncontrolled slaughter.
To every house, he burns, to every family he squashed with his huge tails. Elric could do nothing but watch as these people beg for help. Not even the children are spared with his brutal massacre as they cried for mercy.
His eyes reflected the faces of these people who are covered in blood and fire. Burning in front of him.
Weeping and hurting, Elric can see and feel it all.
They all cried helplessly and hopeless as he continued to rampage as he flew everywhere. Finally, his view changed to a small house in the middle of a small farm.
Elric's eyes contracted in fear at the sight.
It was his grandmother standing outside the house. Elric's huge and ferocious body landed in front of her while she stood on the spot unmoving.
Time suddenly stopped.
The sound, they dissapeared. The wind became quite. The chaotic background blurred in his eyes.
The scent was just too familiar for him.
Before him, is the person he wanted to see desperately; but with his current state, Elric would rather die than to meet her right now.
Elric could see every detail of her face, the wrinkle brought by time. The warm eyes were full of love and the soft brown arms shrouded by gentleness. Her old white hair swayed slowly from the flutter of his giant wings. She was still wearing her kitchen dress.
