Elaine arrived in her room. Despite being in the safety of her own room, she still looked around for anything suspicious, clearly, she was paranoid. After her inspection was done, she heaved a sigh of relief and took off her communicator and a necklace, then went to sleep after washing her face.
The lights in her room were off, and she quickly hid her head in her blanket to sleep.
There was silence in her room, an odd one. But about five minutes after she ‘went asleep’, she abruptly woke up and scanned her room once more.
She was, clearly, very paranoid.
‘… Damn.’
Alan was taken aback by her suddenly waking up. He had used his new skill to make himself invisible and entered her room by closely following behind her. Because of the properties of his new skill, he couldn’t interact with anything too much, but it saved him from the numerous detection spells on shield.
He was just about to turn it off a little bit in order to investigate…but the sudden actions of Elaine disturbed him.
‘You’re way too paranoid.’
Indeed, she was. He continued to stand in her room until the girl went to sleep once more. This time, he waited quite a while and checked whether she was asleep or not multiple times before acting.
He went close to her bed, and opened her bedside drawer. A hand suddenly materialized in front of her desk drawer, and opened it. Slowly, Alan’s body also began to materialize.
“Ugh.”
He groaned, getting out of his skill was definitely a special experience he wasn’t fond of describing, He activated his dragon eyes after he cast a sound barrier on his surroundings, and clicked his tongue.
Previously, when he was trying to use his dragon eyes to see whether if Elaine had truly changed or if something truly was affecting her mind. The latter was proven to be true, but not in the way Alan had expected.
“… Aura.”
There was a void near her chest when he used Dragon eyes on her first, a black space he couldn’t really identify.
He picked up the medallion and felt the aura it possessed. The medallion was strange, It was made of pure gold, and had the picture of a goat on it. A goat with four eyes, six horns, and comically big teeth. Hell, the fact that she was wearing such an outdated piece of jewelry was suspicious in and of itself.
The aura the artifact exuded was no joke.
“So this is how they were able to bypass Sir Oliver’s detection… They used aura instead of mana… But that shouldn’t be it.”
Sir Oliver wasn’t unfamiliar with Aura, his best friend and brother in arms, Sword Saint Arken was a user of it. Therefore, when taking into account the man’s personality… It would be odd if he ‘hadn’t’ set any precautions against the power.
Even besides all of that, his detection spells would have noticed any form of energy used in campus… So he would definitely be alerted.
‘… What if…it’s because it belonged to a being far above his rank?’
That was plausible, if the creator of this artifact was someone far above Sir Oliver’s rank…then it was possible it passed his detection. The only fact that was concerning Alan was who, and why? An Epic ranked being wouldn’t be able to escape his detection, not all of it. So it was a being who was above that rank.
A rank, Earth had only seen in the form of a foreign visitor. But why would someone of that caliber be interested in something like this? All of them should be preoccupied with their own duties.
[Supreme Dragon of Frost, Lanesha, tells the Supreme of Gold to stop hiding.]
‘Huh?’
He heard a strange, cackling laughter soon echo from the medallion in his hand.
[You dragons really are not fun at all.]
Alan didn’t let go of the necklace, instead he encased it in his own aura, as a form of protection.
[The young one is brave at the very least.]
[Supreme Dragon of Frost, Lanesha is ordering the Supreme of Gold to state his reasons.]
[Wow, strange to see a dragon using the system of all things to convey a message…with how much you all hate it despite its benefits.]
Alan’s grip on the medallion was fading, and his head was starting to spin. The voice from the medallion came at him from all directions, and it was if a greater version of his skill, the one he used to get in here, was active.
[So, Will you continue to burden your ‘son’, or would you rather descend yourself so we can talk?]

Alan was getting more dizzy, and he couldn’t hear the words as accurately as he thought. His organs were failing him, and he was going to pass out soon.
[Supreme Dragon of Frost, Lanesha asks your permission to descend onto your body.]
‘Yes…’
He felt compelled to say it, but still felt as if he had a choice. Little did he know if he actually refused it, Lanesha would still defend forcefully, in order to keep his body from exploding.
[Goodness, you even asked him for permission.]
Lanesha, now in Alan’s body, grabbed the Medallion firmly and sighed, she waved her hand and the surroundings changed. They were now in a dark space, where the medallion was now in the hands of golden goat beast man, who conjured up a throne of gold to sit on, Lanesha, appeared as herself instead of Alan in this space, and also sat on a throne made of ice,
The golden goat beast man expressed some concern.
[Are you sure you want to use the body of your kin as a conduit? I can provi-]
[What is it?]
Her voice echoed throughout, and the golden goat beast man sighed, He nonchalantly tried to start a conversation.
[So, how is it like to have a child? I’m genuinely curious. I figured I would try something new
this iteration.]
[…]
Lanesha, was speechless.
