After a brief introduction to everyone, Shadrach was already part of the Party. If there was one thing good about this squad of misfits was that they were all so used to weird stuff happening all the ti that they usually accepted new things very quickly.
"Woah a dragon made of fire?!" Ariant asked in shock. "No wait, it is a sword… So this is your new Summon, he's also got a calm personality, I wish Luminous could learn a thing or two from him!"
"Hey!" Luminous roared angrily in the back. "Not even when I matured into a God I am respected, this bunch of disrespectful kids…"
"No dummy, that's not a dragon, it is a Wyvern." Eriant said, correcting his sister with a cocky smile. The Desert Elf's lips curled cheekily. "Look, the arms it has are connected to big wings, see? Like bats!"
"Oooh! I never actually took attention to that." Ariant said while nodding. "I always thought that Wyverns were just another na for Dragons."
"Heh, foolish little sister, you always are confusing monsters, are you not? I can't believe we went into the sa dungeons when we were younger…" Sighed Eriant.
"Who are you calling foolish?! I rember you were always pissing yourself over fear back then! Grandma's training was harsh but nothing too much, you were always crying over anything." Said Ariant.
"Y-You…! Do you have to bring that out now from all things?!" Eriant complained.
"A-Anyways, leaving this pair aside, it is nice to et you, Sir Shadrach…" Fiere said, trying to act like a maid would. "It is the first ti there's such a complex summon from Kireina. And you said you co from her world and was her servant? Perhaps you could share things her other Egos don't seem to have experienced much."
Indeed, the Egos I made, Black, White, and Aquamarine all experienced very little with . I had discovered the power of Egos quite late, right before going against Hel, so when I awakened them into Egos we only had a single battle worth of mories for them before getting in here.
"Oh for sure, I can go on and on about many things since I et her!" Said the Wyvern Overlord happily, his wyvern-head made of flas seed excited as he nodded while crossing his arms.
"A Wyvern, huh…" Luminous said. "I never believed Kireina was all the things she always said she was, but now I realize more and more she was saying the truth." Luminous sighed. "I might as well welco you in the team, even if our eting might be ultimately brief."
"Thanks, Luminous. Your powers seem incredible, I have gotten a roundabout of most of you by now… You're the last god, huh? Well, now that you've awakened your powers, perhaps you can finally protect this world. Although the Genie and the Demon King are threats we must take care of before departing, I agree with Kireina-sama's intentions as well." The Wyvern Overlord said. "And you… I recognize you."
The Wyvern Overlord hovered closer to Sol, who was trying to act dumb and just not even give eye contact with him, however, at the end he was confronted.
"Are you the Hero Sol, the one that sealed and destroyed my entire Kingdom, are you not?" He wondered.
"I-I…" Sol muttered; he really didn't knew what to even say. "I know it won't amount to anything, I know it might an nothing but… I am very sorry for that, I was manipulated, and I was stupid and foolish and… I always lived being the puppet of nobles. I know excuses cannot make up for what I've done but-"
"Certainly, you've done a great deal of things to . You were the cause of my entire Kingdom to collapse, it was your fault my wife perished, and it was also your fault that all my friends died as well." The Wyvern Overlord confronted Sol's past and all of his traumas and mories of the things he regretted the most.
His Wyvern Soul Embodint Skill activated as his entire shape changed, turning himself into an enormous wyvern of over twenty ters made entirely out of flas, his enormous blazing golden eyes glaring down at Sol as an endless aura of flas covered his body.
Sol was immune to mortal-rank fire but not to divine ranked fire, especially one as strong as the Soul of the Wyvern Overlord, which held a stronger power than normal flas.
His very presence burned his skin lightly and made him grow more and more desperate.
"It was your fault that everything went downhill, you and the other Heroes, you ruined everything I had built! Killed innocent monsters that were trying to live in peace, and completely destroyed all the chances we had to build our own country, our own place!" The Wyvern Overlord continued roaring back at him.
"I'm sorry…" Cried Sol. "Even after my death, I cannot forget my sins… I cannot forget… the things I've done…"
"…"
The Wyvern Overlord's draconic gaze pierced through Sol's soul, and then he cald himself down.
"Sigh… You're a good person deep down." The Wyvern Overlord. "I cannot really get mad at you, not after so much ti has passed, not after all the things I've lived already. Lives like a river that you're swimming against the current, traumas and resentnt are like weights that make it difficult to keep going forward against the current, but once you realize that they're not necessary, these weights are left behind and carried away by the river, while you feel like swimming against the current becos easier." His words filled with the wisdom of an old wyvern seed to be filled with the air of ancientness.
"Once you keep advancing in life, once you experience many things… You realize that there's more to life than the hate you've accumulated. The Grand Forest beca a beautiful Kingdom thanks to Kireina. My children were saved and the death of my wife, my friends, and my Kingdom was avenged when she conquered Athetosea long ago. I have no more grudges."
