"So... What's your plan?" Wain asked with a curious look.
Gisle smirked, put his fingertips together, and said, "You're absolutely right that after we reveal ourselves to the world, soone is going to attack us. I'm sure it'll be one of the Fifth Chronicle Angels, as I've learned they have a particular grudge against us. However, solving this problem is very simple, we just need an ally from the Fifth Chronicle."
"Are you serious?" Wain said as he raised an eyebrow with a confused look, "As far as I know, no one from the Fifth Chronicle is among our allies."
,m "Sure. I managed to find soone, though for the most part I just got lucky. Since that one decided to contact himself. Okay, let's go." Gisle said, getting up from his chair and heading for the stairs.
"Where to?" Wain asked.
"It's a surprise." Gisle said with a slight smile on his face.
...
Wain and Zero followed Gisle as they reached the wooden door that led to the eting room. Gisle slowly opened the door and Wain's eyes went wide.
In the center of the room, at the table sat a man with long white hair, amber eyes, and a thoughtful look playing chess with himself. On his head were two swirling horns and white, massive wings on his back.
"Kadridas... What the hell...?" Wain muttered while in disbelief.
"Hmm? What is that? Is it a monster?" Zero asked with a confused look.
At the sa ti, Kadridas made a move, turned to them, and said, "Oh, you guys. I didn't believe you were coming, but it seems Gisle always keeps his word."
"Huh, Zero, did you say he was a monster?" Gisle grinned while heading toward the table, "Kardidas is not one of the Pillars, however, he is not a monster either."
"Then what is he?" Zero tilted her head in a puzzled manner.
"A dragon..." Wain muttered.
"What...? Aren't Dragons supposed to be big? Hey, stop mocking ! I saw one Dragon! He was the size of an entire mountain!" Zero uttered with an angry look as she puffed up her cheeks.
"Ahahaha, that girl is pretty funny." Kadridas laughed as his voice shook the whole room and cracks went down the walls.
"Oh... I'm sorry, I'm still not used to everything being so fragile in here." Kadridas uttered with an awkward look while scratching the back of his head.
'Damn... He's strong...' Zero muttered inwardly with a dazed look.
"What do you do here?" Wain asked as he sat down across from Kadridas.
"Well, Gisle asked to wait here, he said he wanted to et soone, but I had no idea it would be you." Kadridas shrugged before making a move and turning the playing board.
"I, like the other Dragons, love playing chess, it's relaxing, keeps you from getting bored, and chess is probably the best training for controlling your power. You have to be very careful not to break a simple wooden piece." Kadridas uttered with a thoughtful look as he picked up a bishop.
"Anyway, Kadridas will be the one to help us in case of danger." Gisle said with a sly smile on his face.
"What...? I don't know much about Dragons, but you don't usually interfere with other races, do you?" Wain asked while in confusion.
"Hmm? Do Dragons really have rules like that? This is so strange..." Zero muttered as she frowned.
"Huh, you're both right, Dragons have rules and this is one of them, but we're not the only ones who follow certain rules." Kadridas shrugged with a slight smile on his face, "Last Light is a pretty big organization you have hundreds of great fighters so you can handle any opponent but Fifth Chronicle one."
Kadridas continued, "However, you have nothing to worry about since there is an unspoken rule between all Fifth Chronicle ones. Any Fifth Chronicle beings have no right to attack those whose Chronicle is lower, otherwise, that one will be attacked by all others. This is very important for the preservation of world order and the Dragons are among those who watch closely of it, so this rule is rarely broken."
"Hmm? Then why do you want to help us?" Zero uttered with a confused look, "I an... You're a Dragon, so that's how you interfere in our affairs, isn't it?"
"Ah... Zero, you're still a child." Gisle sighed while shaking his head.
"Hey! You're not much older than !" Zero exclaid in an angry manner.
"It's just that we're the humans, right?" Wain asked with a serious look as he put his hands together.
"Exactly." Kadridas nodded before taking hold of the pawn, "In any other situation until soone in Last Light reached Fifth Chronicle, then no one would dare attack you, but because of your reputation the situation changes."
"Dragons are still undecided as to whether humans should exist or not, so we have a neutral attitude towards you as well as everything in this world, but so races consider you dangerous. That is why I have decided to be the one to watch over your safety until one of you reaches the Fifth Chronicle." Kadridas uttered with a calm look.
"Kadridas and I have already discussed the general terms." Gisle uttered while tapping his finger on the table, "Since he's a Dragon, he'll just be our protector but only in a situation where soone from the Fifth Chronicle one decides to break a rule."
"Yeah. You shouldn't have too much faith in ." Kadridas nodded, "If soone attacks you and completely destroys you, down to the very last person, but Fifth Chronicle one is not involved, then I will not protect you. You should be able to take care of yourselves."
"Wow, I thought you were being kind once you decided to help us, but now I'm not so sure about that." Zero muttered with a confused look.
"Zero, it's not whether I'm good or bad, it's my responsibility. Ah, yes... You don't know that's not my full na." Kadridas said before taking a king.
His amber eyes grew deeper as a powerful aura departed from him that gave everyone the creeps.
"My na is Kadridas, the Watcher, and I will do anything to live up to my na!"
