Chapter 163: Where Is It? The creature before him looked so much like the drawings of dragons depicted on the books he had read, and even some statues of dragons he had seen, but, there were some slight differences between them, an example is that it didn’t have any wings, unlike those he had seen on books. ‘It’s not a dragon.’ said Void. He knew what Grey was thinking about, but he was confident it wasn’t a dragon. Although he hadn’t seen or been in contact with a real dragon before, as a unique magical beast, he knew some things about high-class magical beasts. Currently, Grey had his back against the wall, Void was also in the same position, and they were both staring at the creature vigilantly. They could feel an intimidating aura from it, and knowing that the creature had lived for hundreds of years, and maybe even thousands, they were very wary of it. ‘It’s not? Then what is it?’ asked Grey. The creature was presently staring viciously at the two, and from how its eyes are glowing, Grey felt it might attack them anytime soon. ‘I should rephrase my statement to help you understand better, it’s not a dragon, yet.’ said Void. ‘Wait, I don’t get it, it’s not a dragon, but you’re saying it would be?’ Grey asked, a little confused by what Void said. ‘Yes, actually, it should be going through an evolution process if I’m not wrong. It’s originally not a dragon, but some other reptile. My best bet is that it’s a lizard.’ Void speculated. He didn’t know what type of lizard it previously was, but he was at least sixty percent sure it was a lizard. ‘Evolution?’ Grey got more confused with what Void was speaking about. He had never heard of any magical beasts going through an evolution process, not to mention a lizard evolving into a dragon. ‘Yes, evolution, and from the looks of it, it actually failed in the process. You see, high-class magical beasts go through evolution. I’ll also evolve someday.’ Void said proudly. ‘High-class magical beasts? You’re getting me more confused.’ Grey felt like his head was spinning. ‘How do you even know about all this? You know what, forget about this for now, what we should be worried about is how do we deal with this guy’ Grey brought Void back to the matter at hand. ‘How should I know?’ Void cluelessly replied. ‘But you’re the one speaking about high classed magical beasts a moment ago.’ said Grey. ‘It doesn’t mean I know how to deal with them.’ Void retorted. Their conversation seemed long, but it only happened in a matter of seconds since transmitting thoughts is way faster than when speaking. “Hi.” Grey raised his right hand to wave at the creature. Roar! The creature lunged forward opening its mouth which had a row of razor-sharp curved teeth. Grey and Void rolled underneath the huge body of the creature. ‘I think it likes you.’ Void said sarcastically. ‘You think?’ Grey scoffed as he stood up and dashed towards the tunnel. The energy level he could feel from the creature was intense. But what gave him a little hope was that the power level the creature was emitting was actually still in the Origin Plane. He could tell the creature was above it, but for some odd reasons, its level is lower than its real stage. That’s good news for the duo though since they couldn’t fight against it in its full strength, even fighting against it now was almost impossible. Realizing Grey and Void rolled under it when it didn’t see them, the creature raised its tail and swung it down fiercely. Bang! Grey who saw it when it was raising the tail quickly shifted to the side to escape the tail. The tail slammed into the ground fiercely, causing a huge disturbance in the lab. He took a peek at the creature and was amazed by its size, he had seen the height of the creature previously, but not the length. Grey estimated the creature was at least six meters long, and its tail was also around that length, if not longer. Just as Grey was about the reach the entrance to the tunnel, the creature turned its huge body agilely and opened its mouth, and almost like a real dragon, it spat out fire in Grey’s direction. ‘Look out!’ Void was the first to sense the attack and instantly warned Grey. Grey looked behind him and saw the fire that was two meters wide coming towards him, he quickly dropped to the ground to avoid it from burning him, up. The creature continued breathing out the fire and when it saw Grey dodge it, it aimed at him. ‘I thought you said it’s not a dragon?’ Grey asked as he ran to the left, trying to escape the fire that was literally chasing after him. ‘It’s not, it’s like a quasi dragon.’ said Void as he joined him. ‘Well, this quasi dragon wants my life, our life! Can’t you talk to it?’ Grey panicked when he sensed the heat coming off the flames behind him. Being a Fire Elementalist, he shouldn’t be afraid of fire. But he hadn’t gotten to that stage yet, also, even though he’s a Fire Elementalist, the flames of his opponent would still burn him, especially if they’re stronger than he is. ‘You’ve tried that before.’ Void replied. ‘Damn it!’ Grey looked behind him and couldn’t help but curse out. The quasi dragon had been breathing out fire for almost ten seconds none stop now. Grey created a wall behind him and jumped over one of the platforms in the lab, hiding behind it. Boom! The fire hit the wall and instantly destroyed it, it continued going forward and passed through the platform, but it couldn’t destroy it. Grey who was hiding behind the platform saw the fire going over the top, and the two sides of the platform, but it didn’t touch him. Another five seconds went by before the quasi dragon stopped breathing out the fire. Grey’s heart rate was beating quickly as he held onto Void, he encouraged himself to try and calm down. Breathing heavily, he slowly got up and looked over the platform, and to his surprise, the quasi dragon was gone. “Where is it?” Grey unconsciously blurted out.
