That night, the living room was filled with the quiet hum of Leon and Freya. The soft glow from their laptops cast shadows on the walls as they sat on the plush low-pile, leaning back against the couch. Each of them was engrossed in their research, scouring the internet for any lore or forgotten tales of the Dragon Princess.
Both were tireless in their quest, even as the clock struck eleven, signaling the approach of midnight. The mystery of the Dragon Princess had ensnared them completely, and its potential to weave them into the grand complexity of Immortal Legacy's major plotline was too alluring to resist.
Unlike gas of the past, where each player could partake in the grand plot of the ga, Immortal Legacy offered a unique twist-the main plotline would unfold just once, driven entirely by the players' actions. Those fortunate enough to ignite or steer the pivotal monts were destined to earn the greatest rewards.
"Leon, co look at this," Freya's voice broke the silence. She gestured to her screen.
Curious, Leon moved closer, their shoulders brushing together as they huddled around the glowing monitor.
As they compared the phrases from Leon's discovery in the Fate Trial Domain with events unfolding in the ga world, the pieces began to fall into place.
[She was the hope. The chosen one.]
Leon read aloud.
Freya nodded, her brow furrowing in concentration. "The first phrase clearly indicates that this Dragon Princess has been destined to beco the Greed Champion from the beginning. It hints at her royal lineage."
Leon nodded, absorbing her insights. "Yes, that makes sense."
She survived. While the others perished.]
"This part undoubtedly refers to the decimation of the royal Dragon family," Freya said. "The King and other significant figures were wiped out in a ruthless collaboration between the high elves and demons."
"And then?"
"She lived with those lower than her. She was saved by the humble one," she recited before continuing with clarity. "I finally understand this part. This refers to an occurrence on the West Continent."
"The West Continent?" Leon inquired.
"Yes, the Dragonkin... This happened among the Dragonkin," she explained. "Dragonkin are a unique race with a blend of human and dragon characteristics. They possess dragon blood, which grants them enhanced physical abilities and so dragon-like features."
She paused, allowing Leon to digest the information before continuing. "I believe the term 'lower' here refers to the Dragonkin race."
Leon's eyes narrowed as he contemplated the implications. "Are Dragonkin truly dragons?" The asked, seeking clarification.
Freya shook her head gently. "No, Dragonkin are not full dragons. They are a distinct race with a mix of human and dragon characteristics. They possess dragon blood but do not reach the full power or form of true dragons. Essentially, while Dragonkin have so dragon-like traits and abilities, they are fundantally different from full dragons in terms of form, size, power, and cultural context."
"And then? What happened next?" he prompted, eager to delve deeper into the mystery. Freya took a deep breath, her eyes narrowing in concentration.
"Okay, so... Several decades ago, there was a massacre involving a tribe of Dragonkin on the West Continent. This was carried out by a mysterious organization, rumored to be searching for sothing among the Dragonkin."
Leon furrowed his brow in contemplation. "Could it be that the Dragon Princess was among them?"
"I'm inclined to think so," Freya replied.
[But then, another disaster struck. A calamity seed to follow her.]
[Everything perished. Except her.]
"This ties in perfectly with what the fourth and fifth parts say," Freya continued, her voice steady as she pieced together the fragnts of the tale.
"So, has the Dragonkin been completely wiped out?" Leon inquired.
"Not entirely," Freya clarified, shaking her head. "It was just that one tribe that beca the target of this mysterious organization."
[The girl was so isolated. She felt forgotten and forlorn.]
[The voice told her of her destiny. To fulfill a heavy duty of her people.]
[The girl had a choice to make. To accept her fate or run away.]
[She thought of the people she used to know. But they were gone, so she chose to stay.]
"She chose to stay?" Leon murmured softly, his mind ticking over the implications. "On the West Continent?"
"Possibly," Freya replied, tapping a thoughtful finger against her chin. "But I'll dig for more information. At least we've made so real progress with this quest."
After so monts of silence, Freya spoke again, her tone thoughtful. "I think, one day, we ought to visit the West Continent..." She paused. "Later, when you're better prepared-with your level, equipnt, and everything."
Leon nodded in agreent to her words. "Agreed. Let's handle these challenges, one step at a ti."
"Okay," she replied.
Ti passed in a blur of focused research, their concentration undisturbed until suddenly, Freya's head drooped to the right, coming to rest gently against Leon's shoulder. He remained still for a mont, glancing down to see her breathing slow and even out, her eyes closed in peaceful slumber.
A smile spread across his face as he watched her sleep. He marveled at her passion for Immortal Legacy and the myriad mysteries it held. Freya's dedication wasn't about becoming the strongest player but uncovering the ga's secrets and delving into its lore. Perhaps it was this passion that drove her to work on the ga and choose to serve as the guardian of a Divine Champion.
Soft footsteps approached, and Leon looked up to see Lily quietly entering the room. She noticed Freya asleep on his shoulder and covered her mouth to stifle a silent giggle. Without a word, she slipped away, only to return monts later with a blanket in her arms, which she
tossed gently to Leon.
Leon carefully draped the blanket over Freya, who now appeared fully at ease resting against him. Her warmth and tranquility filled the room with a sense of calm.
"Marry her, brother," Lily whispered with a teasing smile. "I approve..."
"Shut... up..." Leon murmured back.
The next morning, Leon was up early, lacing his running shoes and ready for his daily jog. As he stepped outside, he noticed sothing different. Lily was already waiting for him, perched on her bicycle with a bright smile on her face. She wore a matching training outfit and a cap, her hair peeking out ssily from underneath it. She waved energetically as soon as she saw
him.
Leon jogged over. "What are you doing? I thought you'd still be asleep."
"I'm here to keep you company on your run... But I'll be riding my bike instead," she said with
a giggle.
He chuckled and adjusted her cap, tucking away the stray strands of hair. "Alright, I'd be glad to have your company."
"Okay, let's go!" Lily cheered, punching the air with her right fist.
As Leon started his run, the streetlights were still casting their faint glow over the pavent. Lily followed him at a leisurely pace, her bicycle wheels whirring smoothly as they rolled over
the asphalt.
"Tell , Lily, how's school going for you? Are you having fun?" Leon asked, keeping his pace
steady.
With a broad smile, she nodded. "Uh-huh," she replied. "I'm really enjoying my new school... I even made a new friend." She paused, a thoughtful expression crossing her face. "Maybe I'll introduce you to them next ti?"
"Is it a boy?"
"Uhm... no, it's a girl," she replied quickly. "But... Now I'm reconsidering introducing you..."
"Why?"
"I don't know... but let think more about this plan," she said with a giggle.
"So, what are you learning in school, Lily?"
"It's pretty much the sa as any other school... but we also play Immortal Legacy," she said,
her excitent evident in her voice.
Leon turned his head slightly, still keeping his pace. "So, you have an Immortal Legacy character now? Why didn't you tell ?"
She chuckled. "Wait for the right mont, okay? I won't be joining you in any dangerous adventures... I'm just having fun. So, make sure you're strong enough to protect when the
ti cos, alright?"
Leon nodded. "Deal."
As they continued their morning routine, the world waking up around them, Leon couldn't help but feel a deep sense of contentnt. Their lives had truly improved-the quiet mornings, shared monts, and the adventures they experienced together filled him with joy. Leon then ran faster, making Lily's eyes widen. "Leon...wait for ...hahaha."
