Chapter 40 - White Dragon

"Will you tell us how you two know each other now?" Katana asks Yen. "Okay, so listen. Yakib's father was the first person who believed in me that I would achieve something great. He was the one who gave me the job in that city without any acquaintance. He taught me everything. You can say that Yakib's father, Riaz Hassan, was my first and last mentor. That's where I became friends with Yakib. After my father was posted to another city, we met again when I saw Yakib in Sun City. By then, Seung was dead, but there was no news of his villagers. Then, along with Yakib, I formed an organization of revolutionaries because I knew that sooner or later the rats would come out of their holes. Then they would need a lot of people to fight us. After so many years of waiting, the time is finally coming when we will be free from this cage," Yen says, looking at his companions. "This looks like a map of some place," Yakib says, looking at the maps on the table. "Yes, you're right, but I can't figure out how to read this map correctly," Yen says, looking at the maps. "Let me see if you tell me to." "You know my father was quite good at this," Yakib says, looking at Yen. "Yes, I forgot about that. Well, you can see it," Yen says, looking at him. "Guruji, why did you tell me to do this? If you hadn't told me to, Suan would have been among these twenty winners today," Yama asks, looking at the lama. "My intention wasn't to make him a soldier. I just wanted to make people believe that he has no power. After his defeat, most people have come to believe that," Lama says, looking at Suan.In this traditional village dance, the dancing partners change periodically. After dancing for some time, Aurora and Suan finally get the chance to dance together. They gaze lovingly at each other. "You look so beautiful today! You know every young man here is looking at you!" Suan says, looking at Aurora. "How dare you touch me? Did you think you could escape me? I'll sever the heads of all those dragons who supported you two from their bodies. After so many years of waiting, my revenge will finally be complete." Aurora whispers these words into Suan's ear. Then, she begins to squeeze the hand with which she's holding Suan's right arm. Suan is astonished, wondering where she got so much strength from. Just then, the music stops, and everyone starts cheering and clapping. "What happened? Why are you looking at me like that?" Aurora asks, looking at Suan. "Are you feeling alright?" Suan asks Aurora. "What's wrong with me?" "I'm perfectly fine," Aurora says. "No, because today it seemed like you were going to kill me. You were saying strange things," Suan says, smiling at everyone present. Just then, Aurora starts to feel a little dizzy. Suan picks her up and makes her sit on the bench. "Are you alright, daughter?" Hikaru comes up to Aurora and asks. "Yes, Dad, I'm fine." "I felt a little dizzy from dancing, but I'm feeling better now," Aurora says, looking at Hikaru. "Let's go home." Hikaru and Miyoni take Aurora home. "I have something to tell you," Mausam whispers into Suan's ear. Mausam then takes Suan with him. "So, did you understand?" Yen says, looking at Yakib, who is intently studying the maps. Just then a map flies in the air and falls on the ground, which Yakib picks up and puts it back on the table. Did you all see that, Jinsuk asks looking at everyone. What do you mean by that, Half Face asks. Why don't you pick up one of those maps and look at it in the light, Jinsuk says to Yakib. This is really amazing workmanship, this is a very old art of hiding secrets, I have never seen anything like this before, Yakib says looking at the map in the light. What is it, let me also see it, Yen takes the other map and looks at it in the light, two maps in one page, Yen says looking at the map in surprise."There are not two maps, but three," Yaqib says, turning the map in the light. "This is a puzzle," Sook says, looking at the maps. "What do you want to say? Whatever you want to say, say it clearly," Sikandar asks, looking at her. "As you turn these maps around a little and look at them in the light, they will keep changing. Each one of these maps has many maps hidden within it. No matter how hard we try, without the fourth map, all these maps are useless," Sook says, looking at everyone. "How do you know all this?" Irish asks, looking at her. "I read about this in a book when I was a child," Sook replies. "You're absolutely right," Yaqib says, looking at her. "So you mean to say that until we find the last piece of this puzzle, these pieces are useless," Richard says, looking at her. Why do such things only happen to me? How can all these years of hard work be ruined in just one stroke? Every time I think I'm about to break free from this cage, that freedom slips through my hands like sand. Yen angrily punches the table, breaking it in two. "Where are you taking me? Look, there's someone on the roof of that house," Suan says, looking at Mausam. "Where is there? There's no one there," Mausam says, looking in that direction. "Do one thing, go home. We'll talk in the morning. I have something important to do." Saying this, Suan uses his powers and runs at full speed towards the village gate. Just then, he sees a person in black clothes and a mask running out of the village towards the forest. Seeing this, Suan follows him into the forest, where he sees the man brutally killing the soldiers in the forest one by one. "Your phone is ringing," Jinsuk says, looking at Half Face. What happened, why did you call so late at night? Half Face asks the soldier on the phone. Sir, there is a person in the jungle who is killing all our soldiers one by one very brutally. The soldier is hiding behind a tree and telling this to Half Face. Hearing this, Half Face immediately asks all his friends to go with him to the control room. On going inside, everyone sees on the television present there how that murderer is killing their soldiers. All of you quickly turn into dragons and fly there and bring the head of that murderer, Yen says looking at all his friends. Hearing this, all his friends one by one start turning into dragons and start flying towards the jungle at a fast speed.Meanwhile, Aurora, unconscious, is killing all the soldiers she encounters like a mad elephant. Hiding behind a tree, Suan is astonished by the strength of the unknown person. Then, he feels as if something has come to rest above the soldiers in the sky. The next moment, Jinsuk, who has transformed into a dragon whose strength is his speed, suddenly appears in the forest and begins to rain fire from the sky, causing fire to spread everywhere. Seeing this, Aurora runs through the forest at a great speed and climbs a large tree. Meanwhile, Jinsuk, on the other hand, begins to descend, spewing fire. Aurora then jumps on him, but Jinsuk sees her and attacks him with his tail. This causes Aurora to fall rapidly towards the ground, but Suan catches her before she can hit the ground. But perhaps she has fainted from the impact with the trees. Just then, Suan sees multiple dragons appear in the sky. Seeing this, Suan takes Aurora and runs towards the village, unaware of the person's identity. When Suan reaches the village and takes the man off his shoulder, his face leaves him stunned. Unsure of what to do, he picks him up and takes him to Aurora's house. As he enters her room, everyone there is shocked to see Aurora in his arms. Meanwhile, Suan is also shocked to see the llama present there. Afterward, Suan tells them the whole story. Meanwhile, in the forest, all of Yen's companions, transformed into humans, are searching for the murderer. Just then, Katana and his companions in the forest hear a voice: "It's Yen's voice. All of you come back. I've found out who the murderer is. Tell all the soldiers to come back." After saying this, they all fly back towards the palace. "You'll have to keep this a secret from Aurora until I find out what's going on," Lama says, looking at Suan. "Now you two have to pay very close attention," Lama says, looking at Hikaru and Miyoni. "Thank you very much, son. If it weren't for you, Aurora wouldn't be alive today." Hikaru says, looking at Suan with teary eyes. "Come on then, it's quite late. We'll talk tomorrow. Suan, you should go home too," Lama says, looking at everyone. "What happened? You look very worried," Yaqib says, looking at Yen. "Go to sleep. We'll talk tomorrow. I'm feeling sleepy too." Saying this, Yen goes to his room and lies down. "You've come, I told you to hurry up. You're my descendant. I'm ashamed of this. What's the use of all the powers I've given you? It's finally happened. What I feared has returned," Black Dragon, standing right in front of Yen, says to him. Who are you talking about to him? That person is just an ordinary human being who fell to the ground with one blow from Jinsuk. He cannot harm us, Yen says looking at the Black Dragon. Then the Black Dragon catches him in its claws and starts squeezing him tightly. He is weak now but his powers will increase with time. Kill him before he regains his powers. You don't know who he is, the Black Dragon says while freeing Yen from its claws. Why don't you tell me who he is, Yen asks angrily looking at the Black Dragon. He is none other than the first and the most powerful dragon, he is the great White Dragon, the Black Dragon says looking at Yen. After hearing this, Yen does not understand what to say, he just stands there silently."How do you know it's the White Dragon?" Yen asks the Black Dragon. "His fighting style is exactly like his, but there's one more thing that confirms it's the White Dragon," the Black Dragon says, looking at Yen. "What's that thing? Please tell us," Yen asks the Black Dragon. "If a person sees a fire-breathing dragon, what would they do?" the Black Dragon asks Yen. "Obviously, they'd run for their life," Yen replies. "You're right, but he's the only person in this entire world who would run toward that dragon instead of away from it, because he's not afraid of dragons," the Black Dragon says, looking at Yen. "So that's why you were asking me to find the Dragon Sword quickly because you're afraid of the White Dragon. Wasn't that right?" Yen says, smiling at the Black Dragon. "You have so much courage. You're calling me a coward. Don't forget, you've reached this far because of me. Without me, you couldn't do anything," the Black Dragon says, looking at Yen. Without these powers, you are a coward who fears death. That's why you've been enslaved by the White Dragon for so many years. If your fellow dragons hadn't supported you, you'd still be doing the same today. But I'm not a coward like you. I'll decide how to kill the White Dragon," Yen says, looking at the Black Dragon. "You think this is easy. You know, before he died, he single-handedly killed more than half of the dragons supporting me. That's why killing him now is easy because he's weak right now. Once his powers return, it will be impossible to kill him," the Black Dragon says, looking at Yen. "I have a question. If all his powers return and I kill him and eat his heart, will this invisible circle be able to stop me?" Yen asks, looking at the Black Dragon. If somehow you succeed in doing this, which I know you won't, then forget about this world, you will become the most powerful dragon in the entire universe. No one in heaven or hell has such powers. Everyone in hell will bow before you. The black dragon looks at Yen and says. After so many years, I am feeling that same passion again, so it means now all I have to do is hunt that white dragon. I don't need a map, I don't need a dragon sword. Thank you for telling me what I can do with these powers. Yen says looking at the black dragon. Just then, Katana stands outside his room and calls out to him.I have another question, where has he been hiding all these years? Yen asks the Black Dragon. "I don't know, maybe he's just woken up? Something happened to the person he's inside that has awakened him. What difference does it make?" the Black Dragon says, looking at Yen. "Okay, then I'll go give this good news to my friends." Yen wakes up. "Tell everyone to go to sleep. We'll talk about that killer tomorrow morning at breakfast," Yen says to Katana, opening the door. "Then he goes to sleep." Suan wake up. "It's morning, Mausam is here to see you. Hurry up, or your grandmother will come," Ah-seong says, caressing Suan's head. "Where is that worthless fellow who's still sleeping?" Sohee yells, bursting into Suan's room. "What happened, Grandma? I've been up for a long time." Suan quickly sits up and looks at his grandmother and says. "Hurry up and come to the restaurant. There are a lot of customers today, we'll make a good money," Sohee says, looking at Suan. "Okay, Grandma, I'll quickly get ready and come," Suan says. Suan then takes a shower and sits down to eat breakfast with Mausam. "How long do you sleep? You've become so lazy." "By the way, I have something important to tell you," Mausam says. "First, both of you eat breakfast, and then we'll talk," Ah-seong says, looking at them. Meanwhile, Yen is also sitting with his friends, eating breakfast. "Now that everyone has eaten breakfast, tell me who the killer is," Katana asks, looking at Yen. "You're still so impatient, my friend." "Okay, so I have both good and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?" Yen asks, looking at everyone. "Tell me the bad news first," Half-Face says. "The killer is none other than the White Dragon," Yen says, looking at everyone. Hearing this, everyone feels a shock of a thousand hearts. "Now, should I tell you the good news?" Yen says, looking at everyone. "Will your good news make any difference?" Saito asks. "I know what you're all thinking, but just listen to me," Yen says, looking at his friends. "Okay, then say whatever you want to say." "Anyway, every one of us knew this day would come," Sook says, looking at everyone. "Thank you." "The good news is that the White Dragon is still weak because it doesn't have its full powers. This is really good news. Together, we can easily kill it." Richard interrupts, "How many times have I told you not to interrupt me? You don't understand, you idiot," Yen says, looking at him and shouting. Then, calming down, Yen resumes his speech. Many of you might be thinking the same thing after hearing this, but killing him right now won't do any good, because even if we do, we'll still be trapped in this cage. We'll wait until the fruit is fully ripe. We'll pick it, share it, and eat it. After that, no one in the entire universe will be stronger than us. After that, we'll all become immortal. So what do you all think? Yen asks, looking at her friends. "There's too much danger in this," Iris says, looking at everyone. "So what? We've all faced dangers and reached here," Sook says, looking at Iris. "You're right, we have other powers besides the dragon powers," Saito says. "You all think about it calmly. We'll talk over dinner." Saying this, Yen leaves. "Did you tell him what you told us?" Sora asks, looking at the Mausam. He's walking to his restaurant with Suan. Come on tell me what is that thing that you wanted to tell me Suan asks. I heard Yama Guruji talking to Lama Guruji that on Lama Guruji's advice he did something due to which you lost the competition Mausam says looking at Suan. After that Suan understands everything that why he had to face defeat in the competition. I will talk to Guruji in the evening as to why he did this to me Suan says looking at both of them. Okay then we both will leave, we will meet in the evening Saying this Sora and Mausam wearing soldiers' uniform leave from there and Suan goes towards his restaurant.
