Dragon Master: The SSS-Ranked School Belle Asked Me To Contract Her-Chapter 190: Survival

"Everyone! Don’t move! Not even an inch!"

Veer shouted at the top of his lungs, fearing that it may not reach others or maybe they might not be able to react. His heart pounded against his chest, hoping with everything that his friends did as he said.

He also had the Dark Metal Slate, which glowed with golden colour. There wasn’t anything different in the mist, not anything he could see atleast. So, he just hoped everything he had thought of turned out to be true.

Sadly, he didn’t get the time to see if they had heeded his words or not.

The mist washed over his cohort, drowning them in an ever flowing darkness that blinded their sight. It was horrifying, with an aura befitting it’s image.

Veer didn’t care about all that, as he just tried to see through the darkness for his friends, but it was impossible.

’Wait! I survived? Meaning it worked?’

Veer was surprised and glad that his hypothesis was right. But even when his being was filled with ecstasy, he didn’t move. That was what he had told others and was following through too.

He would not move, even if the worst came.

’Good! Phew! We can do this!’

A smile struggled to form on his lips, but he controlled his urges. His thoughts were filled with worry and concern for his friends. He didn’t know if they hard listened to his words or not, as the mist was making too much noise.

And even if they had heard it, would they doubt his words and take time to do as he said? The chances were low, but the possibility of them not following his words scared him.

After all, that meant certain death.

Seconds turned into minutes.

Veer didn’t move.

Minutes turned into hours.

Veer still didn’t move.

There were several occasions where he just couldn’t hold on and made a movement, but in the end, he succeeded in controlling himself.

’Thank God we had taken the pill before coming here. It would help.’

It was something Aurora had proposed on a whim, so they had eaten a few pills that allowed them to survive without breathing for some time.

There was only one factor now. As long as his friends listened to him and didn’t move forward whole night, they would succeed in this challenge.

It was hard, but he was sure they could handle something like this.

[Slae sictus kalondra phistas!]

The mist howled and roared beside him, whispering things he didn’t understand. It only began when the mist released that it was weakend and couldn’t use it’s powers.

The Dark Metal Slate robbed it off it’s necromancy and by not moving, Veer grew immunity of it’s Necrosis power. So, it began to whisper things in each of their ears.

’Wait! Wait! Is this fucker trying to corrupt me?’

Veer was alarmed and in panick almost made a movement, but then he stopped. He could feel a strange pull from those words, but he couldn’t understand them.

’If I can’t understand them, then it means I can’t get Corrupted. Is this the corruption from the Blasphemy Slate? Most likely yeah considering that’s the only thing having the power to corrupt even Sikander.’

[Waka Bhojun Salak fute!!!]

Veer tried to ignore the voices, but they were persistent as they tried to corrupt him. He didn’t want to remember anything of it, but the effect of his advance memory was still there.

So, even if he didn’t want, his mind recorded everything that the mist told him.

’God I wish I never learn that ancient Language. I don’t wanna learn what the fuck this guy said.’

Lost in his thoughts and the whispering, Veer spent hours in a single position, unmoving. Just when it was getting hard, the mist began to thin out.

Veer’s eyes shone, as they noticed something in the mist. Sunlight in form of his last hope cut through the mist and flashed in his face.

Gradually, the mist completely retreated and went back to it’s seal, freeing him from it’s constraints. However, Veer still felt something wasn’t right.

Where were his friends? He couldn’t even see Sikander.

It was then he remembered something and wanted to slap himself.

’I almost forgot about our bond because of all this stress. Fucking hell!’

So, he quickly connected with his girlfriends and told them through their connection, ’Do not move?!’

’Oh? We can talk?’

’I thought we would have to be like not move from everywhere, not even thoughts.’

Veer mentally heaved a sigh of relief hearing their voices and said, ’I’m glad you two listened to me.’

’Meh, I already told her we should just trust you on this. See? We’re completely fine!’

’Yeah, we didn’t doubt your words and simply followed them without thinking twice. Now, I just hoped others did the same.’

’Yeah,’ Veer wanted the same.

’But what the hell is this? Where are all of you and why did you say I can’t move even now?’

’This woman...use your head, you muscle head woman. It’s obviously a trick the mist is playing with us.’

Veer had come to the same conclusion, so just to be sure, he asked the system, ’Hey how much time for sunrise?’

[30 minutes]

Veer wanted to smile, but held himself back. He said in their connection, ’There are still 30 minutes left for sunrise, so yes this is Necrosis’s doing. Continue to behave like an statue.’

’Alright.’

’its a good method to lower your enemy’s guard. I didn’t expect the mist to be so intelligent.’

Veer mentally nodded and said, ’It was a part of that elf, after all. It would have some of his inteligence too.’

For the next thirty minutes, Veer just wasted time while talking to his girlfriends. They decided to talk important things later, when others had gathered too. They already had their guesses on the situation anyway.

Soon, the world was trapped in darkness again. It seemed to the end of the world, with the harrowing mist screaming and roaring from every side.

But it was just a last futile attempt to kill them which it failed miserably.

The sun rose from the horizon and with that, the mist began to retreat for real this time. As Veer watched it with close attention, he realised that there was some kind of powerful force sucking the mist.

"The time is up! You six have not only impressed me but also won the trail!"

Ignoring Sikander’s voice, Veer first looked for his friends and heaved a sigh of relief when he found them standing just some distance away.

They were alive.

’System, is this real for this time?’ Veer asked, just in case.

[Affirmative! There is no external influence on host!]

Only then, Veer allowed himself to relax and looked to side where the dark, obsidian skinned elf was sitting on his throne, eyes full of amusement, as usual.

However, there was something different this time. For the short amount of time, Veer had talked with Sikander, the dark elf hadn’t moved an inch except for his head.

But now, he sat with his chin on his palm and in a much much more relaxed posture. He also wore a light tunic that covered his full body, but still showed his pronounced muscles.

Sensing Veer’s gaze, Sikander smiled and began to clap, "You have impressed me, Ainsworth brat. I honestly never expected any of you to survive or atleast some to die. But to think your subordinates will have so much trust in you. Impressive!" Enjoy exclusive chapters from novelbuddy

Veer smiled and turned to look at his friends, who had also began to move. Though, they had stood in the same position for whole night so their bodies weren’t in a right state, especially Elizabeth who just dropped on the ground.

Elara cracked her knuckles and joints, then came to stand beside Veer while others just paid attention to the situation while sitting on the ground.

"I’m curious how you did all of this, so care to explain?" Sikander asked.

"As if you don’t know everything already." Veer rolled his eyes and said.

"I still want to hear everything."

Veer sighed hearing that and also sat back on the ground. He then thought about the things of previous day and smiled, "It’s nothing really. I just remembered something small details and mare some theories. There wasn’t much time so I just gambled everything on my hypothesis."

"Your luck is really good."

"Yeah. We knew about the powers the mist possessed and needed to survive them. The Runic slate, as you called it, did it’s work. Normally, it would have suppressed the guardian completely, robbing of their Cultivation base."

"Intresting." Sikander muttered. "Go on!"

"But due to your special conditions, it didn’t quite work like that. But it still did it’s work by suppressing it’s necromancy powers completely. And it was a huge help, as there was just no way we could have survived it."
