"Now the task number one has been completed, we'll be moving to the next task." the Dragon said, "I will give you details about everything you will need for this task."
"There are five different village in this world. There is the west village, north village, east village, south village and lastly the center village."
"The Centre village is the power land of all other villages. And that is where I'm sending you to." The dragon said and brought out seven gems with different colours.
"What are these gemstone for?" asked Vic.
"This gemstone is what will answer your questions. You must find this seven students, all having lightning abilities. Once you've found all of them and they are all gathered together, present these gems to them, they will know which one is theirs."
"So you mean, I should go to the center village and find those seven students who all have lightning abilities and when they are all together, I should present these gems to them?!" Vic inquired.
"Yes!"
'But what about Melody and Liza and Butch. I still don't know where they are, whether they are alive or not.' Vic was saddened by the thought.
"About that, they are heading towards the center village right now." the dragon answered, listening to Vic's thought.
"They are alive! The three of them?" Vic was overwhelmed with Joy.
The dragon nodded.
"Sure, but you might need to help them once you've gotten to the center village."
That wasn't a bother to Vic, he's trying to help out as best as he can, especially Melody. He can't wait to see her lovely face.
So, helping them is not a matter.
"Before you go, take these." the dragon gave Vic the gem of the ante-beast he killed a while ago and that of the stampe-beast. "The system will give you your rewards."
"I thought the Quest said I need to find what's hidden beyond?"
"Yes, but it is not yet completed."
"There are still things hidden here that I don't know?!"
"You can say that!"
' It would be best if I wait for the full reward. I wouldn't want my rewards to be split into two. '
"Good Choice!" The dragon smiled.
"I'm going to complete this task!" Vic said as he moved towards the exit where he had came from. He saw what he tripped upon some hours ago, it was a small but strong statue of a dragon.
"Why did you place it here?"
"You mean that statue? it is placed there to activate the powers of any new Dragon entering this mountain for the first time. Don't worry, you won't be able to trip over it again." The dragon said as she waved her hands and the statue became dust.
"Farewell, Leader of the Sakhorah Vampdragons, I hope to see you soon!" The Humanoid Dragon said and the mountain Door was open.
Vic exited the Cave and he could see Spiro fighting with a beast, it was still a basic tier beast.
"Gosh, this boy and his silver sword." Vic laughed to himself before remembering something, "Heck, my eyes."
Vic had forgotten that his Vampdragon Eyes was still activated. He knew if Spiro could see him like this, he will be afraid of him.
And it's not even in day time, it is already late in the night. The Vampdragon Eyes is shinny at night.
"Man, this beast is the toughest of all the beast I've ever fought with. Can't you just let someone have a night bed rest! Huh?" Spiro shouted as he tried to slice the head of the beast but it missed. He fell on the ground.
The next thing, the beast start running towards him, ready to pounce on him with its hoof.
"Man, I gonna die!!" Spiro closed his eyes, he had already lost hope because the beast was already upon him. But at the last second, Lightning came in striking the beast and turning it into crisp.
One thing was strange, instead of the normal blue lighting, it was silver lightning.
"Are you okay?" Vic asked Spiro who was still closing his eyes.
"Am I dead already?" Spiro asked as he start opening his eyes, only to meet with that of Vic.
"Vichette, you're back! When did you arrive?"
"Not too long, when my dear new friend was slicing the beast." Vic joked.
"Man, it was a tough beast. Or perhaps I was hungry." Spiro laughed as he start looking for the beast.
"Are you looking for this?" Vic said as he showed Spiro where the crisp had fallen to.
"What happened?" Spiro asked. "Didn't you slay the beast?? or did you burn the beast?"
"Take, I didn't get to use your light source gem. So I'm not owing you. And this is the gem and Crystal of the dead beast!" Vic said.
When he killed the beast using his lightning, the gem didn't appear in his hands and he was quite happy about that. He won't have to explain unexplainable things to Spiro.
Spiro is someone that is always curious to know about everything that happens. Explaining how the beast was killed is a pain in the neck for Vic. He don't like explaining things, even when melody asked about his powers, he couldn't say much.
That was when he didn't know much about his powers but even now that he's getting a clearer understanding of his powers, he still can't explain much of his powers to anyone else.
To avoid any more questions, Vic quickly popped out a suggestion.
"I'm thinking of heading to the center village, I'm having a goose bumps that my friends are there. But,... I will follow you to your village. I need someone to forge a sword for me. Can you do it?" Vic asked.
"Why? I can do it!" Spiro answered excitedly.
"Then, we're moving first thing tomorrow morning. So get those heavy bag of yours and let us sleep." Vic instructed and Spiro picked up his backpack and slept on a temporary bed he made for himself.
"Ain't you gonna sleep buddy?!" Spiro said.
"I'll be doing the guard tonight, so don't worry about me!" Vic said.
Spiro went to sleep, while Vic sat on the top of a high rock. As he sat down, Vic heard a wolf howling in distance.
"Are there also wolves here?"
