Chapter 419 When did the dragon become so lacking in prestige?
Inside the cave filled with dragon skeletons, the Emerald Dragon Kilkonis glowed green, maintaining its menacing, roaring posture.
With its enormous size and ferocious face, a mere human would surely be terrified and flee in terror.
That's definitely what Kirkonis remembers, but—
What's wrong with these guys?
Looking down, I saw those tiny humans, as small as ants, standing still in place!
Although its face showed some shock, it was far from the scene it had imagined.
Some of them weren't even afraid at all, and even dared to stare at him with big, curious eyes?
When did dragons become so lacking in prestige?!
What Kirkonis didn't know was that these people present had already seen dragons that were more real and friendly than the one he was.
Needless to say, the companions in the Chase world also spent some time with the Destroyer Dragon Gandora.
Before coming to Krocas to participate in the Grand Magic Games, they had been training in the card space of Chess.
"Hey Lucy, look! It has two long whiskers on its chin, it looks like a catfish!" Future Happy discovered the blind spot.
"Huh? Now that you mention it, it does look a bit like a catfish dragon?"
Future Lucy narrowed her eyes and began to speculate about the identity of the dragon spirit opposite her with a sly grin.
"I thought dragons were all majestic figures covered in black scales, but I didn't know they could look so ugly."
Erza's incredibly serious tone in the future made it impossible to tell whether she was joking or genuinely believed it.
"No, Grandine has really beautiful pure white scales!" Wendy quickly explained.
Natsu and Gajeel then emphasized their father's appearance, resolutely disassociating themselves from the lewd dragon in front of them.
"By the way, was it making that face to scare us?"
"Ai~ what a boring dragon!"
Seeing the group chatting idly with their nerves relaxed, Kirkonis's mouth twitched violently, and veins appeared on his forehead, as if he had been greatly offended.
"Enough! You ignorant and arrogant brats!"
"Do you even know what a noble race stands before you right now?!"
As soon as it finished speaking, it raised its head high, trying to make itself look even more terrifying.
However·-
Wow, we struck it rich!
"Not only is she ugly, but she also has a terrible temper!"
"Wendy, why don't we send it back and get a different one?"
"Oh dear, this is scary! Chase, can you hug me?"
Kirkonis:
"My name is Gilkonis. Is the ability to awaken the dead a magic attributed to that celestial dragon Grandine?"
Perhaps wanting to salvage his dignity as a dragon, and realizing that these humans were not afraid at all, Kirkonis pretended not to hear their pointing and looked down at the two Wendy standing in the magic circle maintaining the "galaxy".
"I never expected that it would be such a little one who would awaken this old man."
It stuck out its tongue and licked its lips, revealing sharp fangs. "So cute! So cute I want to eat it whole and taste it!"
"Please, please don't do that! >-
The two Wendy's were immediately startled.
"Hahaha! That's right, that's exactly the reaction I'm looking for!" Kirkonis felt that the whole dragon had become much clearer.
Its soul form is similar to a virtual image; it cannot touch anything at all.
"Hey, how dare you scare our guild's cutest mage."
Chase stepped forward slowly and threatened in a deep voice, "Watch out, or I'll dig up your bones, burn them to ashes, and feed them to the dogs."
"Heh, just a mere human, even a skeleton wouldn't be enough?!"
The moment he saw Chase's face, as if he had seen some terrifying monster, Kilkonis's words froze mid-sentence.
The massive body instinctively took two steps back.
The dragon's two eyes widened dramatically, staring intently at Chess with a look of utter vigilance.
How strange, why do I feel fear towards this human?
"To be able to come up with such a vicious plan, that's just like Chess!" Lucy observed its reaction.
"Oh dear, wouldn't it be a waste to burn it to ashes?"
Mira tilted her head and thought for a moment, then suggested with a smile, "How about we turn its bones into handicrafts and gifts to take back to our friends over there?"
"...Your idea is even darker," Gray retorted.
They naturally assumed that Kirkonis was intimidated by Chase's "threat".
Chase frowned slightly, noticing that things didn't seem to be that simple.
The reason for bringing everyone to the Dragon Graveyard was not only to let Natsu and the others know about Acnologia's origins, but also to further confirm the timeline.
According to the original story, Gilkonis's title "Emerald Dragon" was obtained from the Emerald Princess four hundred years in the future, after passing through the Eclipse Gate.
Since the beginning, it has not mentioned this title, which means it has not met the Emerald Princess.
Based on this, and considering that there has been no news of the future Rogue until now, it can be confirmed that the current world is the future Lucy timeline where ten thousand dragons destroy the world!
Can..
Why did Kirkonis lose his composure upon seeing himself?
Is he really just afraid of feeding his dog with ashes? Or was he stunned by his own overwhelming aura of dominance?
Or perhaps...
"No, no! I am a dragon, what is there to be afraid of!"
Seemingly having slept for too long, Kirkonis was somewhat disoriented. After shaking his head to regain his composure, he placed his hands on his hips and proudly declared, "That's right, my name is Kirkonis!"
"You already introduced yourself!!"
Chess, already having his own suspicions, ignored them and waved to Kilkonis: "Tell me, why are there so many dragon skeletons here?"
"Hmph, I have nothing to say to you inferior humans." Kirkonis turned his head away defiantly.
"Hey, we're cats!" the two hobbits said, raising their paws.
"I see." Kirkonis's large head turned back.
The two Lucys exclaimed in unison, "Your standards are way too low, old man!!"
However, Kirkonis's next words stunned them.
"It's you humans."
"Four hundred years ago, on a continent ruled by dragons, a group of incredible human mages suddenly appeared."
"Although my memory has long been blurred, I remember very clearly their unknown power that was strong enough to rival us, and some damned fellow humans who were also on their side."
"That battle was extremely fierce, and many dragons perished in this Dragon Graveyard."
"I survived thanks to my excellent and accurate judgment of the situation, but I couldn't escape the 'Dragon King Festival' that gave birth to the Dragon King Acnologia."
