I Received System to Become Dragonborn

The room remained steeped in an oppressive silence and Adrius's words hanging heavy in the air. Each individual within the council chamber seemed lost in their own thoughts. Thinking about the implications of the Archmage's revelations settling like a dark fog over their hearts.

The Great Calamity had already felt like an insurmountable danger to their lives, and now they learned that it was merely the tip of the iceberg. The harbingers, monstrous entities born of the same darkness, would come next, sowing chaos and despair and softening their defenses for the true terror that was yet to come.

It was actually a pretty clever tactics. But they at the receiving end of it so they only feel more despair.

King Gulben stared at the polished surface of the council table, his expression unreadable but his knuckles white as his hands clenched into fists. The Elven advisors exchanged grim, knowing glances, their usual calm demeanor cracking.

Adrien and Billy, standing beside Erend, felt the weight of exhaustion pressing down on them once more. But now it was tinged with a new kind of fear—the fear of a fight that seemed never-ending, with dangers growing even more insidious by the day.

Erend's own heart was heavy. The battle they had just survived was only a prelude to the horrors that lay ahead. He could feel the tendrils of doubt creeping into his mind, threatening to suffocate the resolve that had carried him this far. But he couldn't afford to falter—not now, not ever.

He looked around at the weary, somber faces surrounding him. They deserved more than the despair that Adrius's prophecy brought. Erend forced himself to take a deep breath, pushing the doubts aside.

"Everyone! we can't let this break us," Erend said, his voice steady, though it carried the weight of the struggle within him. He looked first to Adrien and Billy, then to King Gulben and his council. "Yes, things are getting worse. But that doesn't mean we give up. We've faced impossible odds before, and we've overcome it.

This… this is just another fight. One that we'll face together."

His words were simple, but they held a power of their own. The room seemed to breathe again, the oppressive silence lifting slightly as Erend's resolve gave them all a small glimmer of hope.

"We will find this Meat of Doom," Erend continued, his gaze hardening. "We will stop the harbingers. And we will do whatever it takes to save our world. We can't afford to lose hope now."

Adrien who was spurred by Erend's determination took a step forward. The weariness was still there but his eyes sparked with a renewed fire. He had always been a soldier, and soldiers didn't back down.

"Erend's right," Adrien said, his gaze sweeping over the council members. "We've all seen what happens when fear takes over. It's the surest way to defeat before the battle even begins. But we're still standing here, aren't we? We're alive. That means we've got a chance—a chance to fight back, to protect our homes and our people."

He paused, letting his words sink in. The Elves, their faces still etched with worry, seemed to be listening intently, some nodding slowly in agreement.

"Giving up is not an option," Adrien continued, his voice gaining strength. "We've faced monsters before, things that should have torn us apart. But we fought. We bled, we suffered, and we won. And we'll do it again."

Beside him, Billy nodded, the same determination burning in his eyes. And now, despite the overwhelming dread that threatened to crush them, he found his voice.

"Hell yeah, we will," Billy said with a lopsided grin, though his eyes were serious. "We've come too far to let these damn monsters push us around. They think they can scare us? They're dead wrong. We'll show them exactly what it means to fight for what we care about."

Billy's words that laced with his usual bravado brought a flicker of light to the room. A few of the Elven advisors straightened in their seats. their resolve seemingly bolstered.

King Gulben who had remained silent until now finally looked up from the table. His expression softened slightly. He could see the truth in their words—the fight was far from over, but surrendering to despair would be their greatest mistake.

King Gulben rose from his seat. He would not allow despair to fester among his people. Turning to one of his closest advisors, he spoke with authority.

"Send word to our warriors and mages on the front lines," he commanded. "They must know of the harbingers and the trials that lie ahead. But also tell them that we will not falter. We will not surrender to fear."

The advisor nodded and quickly left the chamber to relay the message. A sense of urgency spread through the palace as the news traveled swiftly down to the battlefield where the Elven warriors and mages were holding the line against the encroaching darkness.

As the message reached the front lines, the reaction was immediate. The warriors and mages, already weary from the unending battle, felt the weight of the new revelations settle upon them like a shroud.

Whispers of the harbingers and the growing darkness spread like wildfire and for a moment despair threatened to take root. Some lowered their weapons, their hearts heavy with the thought of facing yet another seemingly insurmountable threat.

But before the despair could deepen, the sky above them began to shimmer with a golden light. A powerful aura of Magic pulsed through the air, and all eyes turned upward.

King Gulben, radiant with the full might of his ancient Magic, appeared high above the battlefield, his form glowing with a divine light.

Beside him, Erend and Eccar soared on mighty Dragon Wings, their scales gleaming in the light of King Gulben's Magic. The sight of their leaders who had been fearlessly facing the encroaching darkness sent a surge of renewed strength through the ranks of the Elven warriors and mages below.

King Gulben's voice that was amplified by his Magic echoed across the battlefield

"My warriors, my Mages. Do not lose hope! We have faced many enemies and we will face many more, but know this: you do not stand alone. We are the shield that guards our lands, the sword that strikes at the heart of darkness. Together, we will kill this evil!"

Erend' Dragon Wings beating powerfully as he hovered beside the king, added his own voice to the rallying cry. "We've fought too hard to let fear take us now! This is not the end—it's only the beginning! Stand together, and we will crush whatever comes our way!"

Eccar roared, his voice a primal sound that shook the very ground beneath them. It was a sound of defiance, of unyielding strength, and it reverberated through the hearts of every warrior and mage who heard it.

The despair that had begun to take hold was shattered in an instant. The warriors tightened their grips on their weapons. The sight of their leaders that looks unyielding in the face of darkness, rekindled the flames of courage in their hearts.

A battle cry erupted from the ranks, a unified roar of defiance that shook the air. The warriors and mages were once again filled with fighting spirit.
