Chapter 517: Monk good or bad? (2/2)

”We can't leave the shadow now, and there is no kingdom that will take us.”

She could see the struggle across his face. Monk had so much on his mind from day one, and from the beginning he was doing everything for the sake of Avrion. This was the kind hearted man she remembered and used to love. The problem was, he was too gentle and wished to save everyone.

”You probably don't believe me.” Monk said as he lifted his head, only to find Martha's there in front of him. His cheeks started to redden seeing how close she was, and her beautiful green eyes were even more spectacular up close.

”Monk, you're an idiot!” She said, flicking him on the forehead. ”You didn't have to go through all of that on your own, and of course I believe you. I could always tell when you were lying and when you weren't. That's why I was so sure you never went to the other side.

”But we could have helped you, why didn't you come back and tell us sooner rather than now while everyone is stuck in this mess!”

”But you don't understand, have you ever seen a dragon before?” Monk asked. ”Their powers, it's beyond that of any ranked beast, they're just so strong. I'm not talking about the one that you saw in the war either, that was nothing compared to what I had seen. I needed to find a way to beat the shadow from inside out, but I still haven't done it. The shadow guards don't treat me with the same respect as they did Gary and Morfran. I haven't seen that strange man since.”

Martha started to chuckle quietly.

”No, I haven't seen a dragon, but if you're worried about them having one, we have one as well. And it's the strongest one that has ever existed.”

There was clearly a confused look on Monk's face, and slowly that look changed to shock as Martha revealed that Ray was none other than, the Great red dragon Sen of the past.

”But…how can that be…” Monk thought, as his eyes filled with tears and he thought back to all the times he and Ray had journeys together in the academy, and even when he had saved them from Morfran.

”Ray, no wonder you were so amazing, I'm sorry for ever doubting you.” Monk said, but then he was reminded of something.  ”Speaking of Ray, where is he?”
