Dragon Master: The SSS-Ranked School Belle Asked Me To Contract Her Chapter 206: The Prophecy

Elara and Liliana had the exact opposite Aspects, and when Elara learned more about her powers, she realized that Liliana's Aspect was also powerful in its own way.

But to think it was sothing that ended the Dood War?

It was unbelievable.

"Yes, but it didn't end properly back then."

Elara frowned and asked, "What do you an?"

"Your friend... where is she?" Sikander asked, clearly hesitant to tell Elara everything.

"We don't know where she is," Elara answered. "Now, please, tell everything!"

"I will try my best," Sikander said. "But don't expect much. It involves him, and that ans I can't talk about it. The Dood War carries corruption with it, after all."

He joined his hands together and began to explain.

"There were many things that affected the nature of the Dood War. One such thing was your Godfire. It could burn concepts, and corruption was the sa. But it could still be countered because corruption... it's a very different kind of concept."

Rembering his best friend, he continued.

"I rember one guy who was known as the Master of All Concepts because he could use every concept known to exist. However, even he got corrupted."

"You said there were three types of corruption. Which one are we talking about?" Elara asked.

"It depends, but the energy-type corruption is the lowest because it's rely a byproduct of the other two types of corruption," Sikander explained. "Your Godfire can deal with energy-type corruption as long as it doesn't exceed your level. And as for the corruption that the Gods created, you can handle that as well."

"But it's different with the first type because it ca from that thing?" Elara asked, recalling the discussion about the Blasphemy Slate.

"Yes, and there is a reason for that which I can't tell you. But your Godfire and that corruption are really just two sides of the sa coin. However, Glaciel Heart is different."

Sikander's face turned serious as he continued.

"Nobody created that Aspect... it just existed. And when it appeared, it silenced the whole world. That one thing changed everything. That's why I say your friend's situation doesn't make sense."

"Can I know how exactly it ended the war?" Elara asked.

"Unfortunately, no. It is related to the Gods, after all, and directly ties into the things they did," Sikander sighed. "But I can tell you this—the war didn't end properly. Actually, it never even ended."

"What do you an?"

"The war... it was only suspended because of the Glaciel Heart. And there was a prophecy that it would resu once the Dragon Master was born."

"Veer? Wait! Is it about that unknown?" Elara exclaid.

"You know about him?" Sikander was genuinely surprised. "How? Actually, never mind. Yes, it's about that unknown and your Veer."

He took a deep breath and continued.

"Dragons—pure, noble dragons—have always been a pain in the ass for everyone, including those bastards. Worst of all, the Glaciel Heart is sothing only a pure-blooded noble dragon can possess. Others would simply die from its sheer power."

Seeing her confused expression, Sikander chuckled and said,

"I see that you're confused. Let explain it in a simpler way. Dragons have been at the top since the beginning of ti because their birth is closely tied to the Primordial Ones. That's also what made them so dangerous and capable enough to wield an Aspect like Glaciel Heart."

He pointed at Elara and smiled.

"I an, look at yourself. You're a High Human, and only because of that do you have your current Aspect. Your birth affects your Aspect in many ways."

"I see, I understand this much. To possess certain Aspects, you need to fulfill specific requirents. And maybe, to have the Glaciel Heart, you need a pure Dragon Bloodline?" Elara guessed.

"Correct! Now, you know that the Glaciel Heart ended—or rather, suspended—the war in one way or another, right? The thing is, nothing is free," Sikander said. "Nothing is free!"

"What was the price, then?" Elara asked.

"Weakening of the Dragon Race and the death of the Host of the Glaciel Heart," Sikander sighed. "But it did what it was ant to do. It delayed the inevitable end of this world."

"That unknown was the real mastermind behind the Dood War, and he probably got injured sohow? Because of that, the war was delayed. But if he knows the requirents of the Glaciel Heart, he's likely trying to suppress the Dragon Race?" Elara summarized.

"Quite right and quite wrong. Maybe wrong," Sikander shook his head but then noticed sothing odd in her words and asked, "What do you an the Dragon Race is getting suppressed?"

"You heard ," Elara shrugged. "Apparently, this unknown is suppressing the Dragon Race, and we found out through my friend."

"That shouldn't be possible..." Sikander frowned, struggling to believe her words. But he also knew she was telling the truth.

"Why can't it be possible? That unknown is incredibly powerful, after all. Even in his injured state, he probably had enough resources to suppress the Dragon Race," Elara argued.

"No, not that. While that's already difficult to believe, I can still consider it possible. But your friend knowing about this? There's no way I'm believing that," Sikander stood up and muttered, "I'm getting enough shocks for today, and I'm not believing this one."

"It doesn't matter if you believe it or not. It's the truth," Elara said. "Besides, why can't she know about it?"

"Because that information would overrule the clause of Glaciel Heart, and your friend wouldn't be alive. Heck, even the world wouldn't be the sa if that were the case," Sikander shook his head. "Sothing is missing... sothing is missing..."

"Old man, take a chill pill. I'm also worried about my friend, but I'm listening to you calmly," Elara sighed.

"Fine! Let's pretend to believe it," Sikander said, sitting on the stairs beside her. "Basically, that unknown has been on the lookout for the next Glaciel Heart. If he knew about your friend, he would have made sure she was under his control."

"But she's not?" Elara frowned.

"It's because even that guy is unsure of this anomaly," Sikander said. "Whatever it is, this Glaciel Heart is very different from the original one. If I had to say, it's a weaker version."

"Maybe that's why the Unknown didn't go after her?" Elara said thoughtfully. "I an, there's no way those oldies who suspended the war didn't consider what could happen in the future. They might have prepared for it."

"A diversion? Planting a weaker version of the Glaciel Heart to distract him from the original?" Sikander smirked. "It's possible. I know they can create a perfect copy of the Glaciel Heart, though it would be much weaker."

He shook his head and added, "Anyway, this doesn't safeguard her life. That bastard would rather destroy every potential threat than wait for it to develop. He's just being cautious because of his weakness."

Looking at her, he smiled. "That brings to your boyfriend. Do you know why I helped him? It's because of his Aspect... and maybe sothing else too, but mainly his Aspect."

"He can harm that man using his Aspect or sothing?" Elara tilted her head.

"Hmm, that's sothing I can't answer. But I will tell you this—there was a prophecy when the Dood War was coming to an end," Sikander said. "It was brought by the Glaciel Heart's host."

He chuckled and continued.

"It stated that when the next Dood War was approaching, the Dragon Master would be born with the power to unify and elevate the Dragon Race to a new level. When the Dragon Master had gathered a portion of the dragons under his control, the Glaciel Heart would then be born among his legion of dragons to assist him in the war against that guy."

All of a sudden, he began to laugh and said,

"But of course, all of it is bullshit. Glaciel Heart, Dragon Master, Godfire, The Oracle of the Path, The Devouring Beast, the Ainsworth Mind... all at the sa ti, haha!"

His eyes turned cold as he whispered, "Soone is playing with fate. Or maybe soone already played with it in the past."

"This is all too confusing for ," Elara groaned. "All I know is that the Second Dood War is coming, and sohow, because soone tampered with fate, we're all connected to it. Whether we like it or not, we have to fight—because otherwise, the enemy is coming for us anyway."

"Yes. Also, if you find your friend, warn her," Sikander sighed. "That man... he's too dangerous. There's a reason even the Gods couldn't kill him."

Elara ignored his words, rubbing her forehead as she groaned, "Whatever! Just get out of here. I'm getting a headache."

"Oh? It's finally working?" Sikander smirked. "The corruption is seething in your soul, ready to devour you from the inside out."

"W-What are you talking about?"

"Exactly what I an. I didn't think it would take this long for it to work!"
