26 There’s a War Coming (2/2)

Coincidently Don had always planned to build an army and a kingdom, the war and Dragon King's advice just made him more motivated.

”Why me?” Don asked the question that's been bothering him since the start.

”ye be a chosen one boyo tha one born wi'out a magical core I had some doubts about tha prophecy but after seeing ye I guess its all true”

”What prophecy?” Don again asked a question but the Dragon King's body started to flicker,

”I don't have much time boyo I used most o' me energy ta battle ye but i'll try ta answer your questions 'afore I fade away”

”What is the prophecy? Who I am going to face in that war and how do I get stronger since you know I can't use magic”

Arrora and Uncle Dior couldn't believe their ears, Uncle Dior thought Don was an otherworldly being but now he realized he was born in this world but without a magical core, he never heard such phenomenon before or ever.

In the magical world, the magical core was equal to the brain, the one without it could be considered as a corpse obviously no one was born without it he never heard of it until now

”the dragon born without the ability to breath fire is the only one can light the fire that extinguishes the darkness” Dragon king's figure became more transparent.

”I don't know who ye be going ta face boyo but tha enemy be not someone tha current ye can fight” the Dragon king's body almost turned into smoke

”tha magix energy tha battle energy ye use be all energies boyo energies but i dinna have tha time ta explain

i left some magix stones in tha castle use it wisely ta power up your army conquer everything you could 'afore tha war, only together ye can win boyo”

Dragon King paused a second as he looked at a faraway distance with a sad look on his face

” an' help my people Don”

This time Dragon King addressed him as Don instead of boyo or brat, it sounded like he's asking a last favor from his successor.

But just before the Dragon King disappear Don asked,

”Are you really dead?” but Dragon King didn't say anything just winked at him and completely disappeared.

Looking at the place where Dragon King floated just a moment ago the three of them stood in complete silence each with their own thoughts and plans.

After a moment Don took his hands out from Arrora's neck, his wounds now mostly healed but the clash between two energies at the last moment of the battle took a toll on his body as he was still experiencing some pain.

”Cloaking spell deactivated” suddenly a mechanical voice echoed in their ears, when the three of them turned to see the source of the voice but the scene before them was shocked them even Don,

The waterfall they saw slowly split opened in the middle as a bridge made of which seems like light or energy(the one like was on the Asgard) came out of the waterfall.

”Let's go,” Don said while he already started to limp toward the light bridge, the Dragon King said he was his successor so he guessed the castle now belonged to him and the bridge was the gateway to the castle but the two behind him was little afraid to follow him.

However Don didn't wait for them so they had no choice but to follow Don.

As Don slowly walked towards the waterfall he couldn't see anything before him but full darkness in front of him, walking towards the darkness reminded of him the dark portals in the Divine Continent which used to travel one domain to another.

The darkness was just a few inches away from him, the water falling beside him was blocked from wetting him by some kind of force field.

”Here we go” Don exhaled a long breath and stepped into the darkness. Unexpectedly soon after he stepped into the darkness he was welcomed by a very beautiful site to be exact a new dimension. ( i wanted to use realm but dimension seemed more suitable if you have better name tell me in the comments)

”Oh my god” two shocked and astonished voices came from behind Don.

”What is this place?” Uncle Dior asked as his eyes were sparkling seeing the beauty of the place in front of him just when a sweet childish giggle of a little girl reached their ears.

”This is the Castle of Dragon King”

Out of nowhere a magical projection of a little girl in a white dress appeared in front of them, the girl clapped her hands together in joy,

she had a very bright smile like she found her long lost mother seeing them and she was extremely cute particularly that ponytail of hers.

Before they could even react seeing the cute little girl, she called out again looking at Don

”Welcome to the Castle of Dragon King brother”
