Will of chaos-Chapter 1662: Cap 1660: Origin of the Anomalous Dragons part 2
"That was the real nightmare beyond despair..." (Luci)
I can feel the fear in her voice and in her Aura, it seems that the mere memory is enough to scare her in this way as if she were reliving those days, this is a sign of a strong trauma that left an eternal mark on her conscience.
I exchanged glances with Adella, her traumas were similar, for something like that to affect beings of my power level and above, it must be a catastrophic and unimaginable degree of madness.
Lolth on the other hand seems to not care about anything, her murderous intent is as great as ever, Akatosh was one of the only ones who didn’t care about anything until now alongside Arash.
"You know, the feeling of having a decomposed body still alive wasn’t so bad... but the feeling of hunger was unimaginable... this feeling of hunger wasn’t even coming from our bodies..." (Luci)
"From the beginning, it was the Dragon Teeth who were hungry, their Souls and minds were gone, but their instincts and Will remained in their bones." (Luci)
"We didn’t notice it, Will was an unknown concept to us, Anomalous power was a complete unknown, and Aura was so unique to each individual that its study was endless." (Luci)
"There were always logical flaws in the Dragon Hunter Project, we were discovering them as we went along, yet we were blind from the start and at this point there was no road forward, only an endless precipice." (Luci)
"(She’s clearly not okay.)" (me)
"(She’s describing an Anomaly, an unthinkable and inconceivable act that leads to an impossible result, this is an Anomaly as the Anomalous Creatures are born... the same was true at my birth.)" (Tarzor)
"(The feeling of emptiness is always present and instinctively ends up connecting to an obsession, in my case it was to become complete as I am now, but from what she says it would be right to assume that hunger was the obsession that filled this void for them.)" (Tarzor)
"..." (me)
I didn’t understand what Tarzor meant, I didn’t know what this emptiness was that he was talking about and I also didn’t know what obsession had to do with all this, but I could listen to these explanations later in more detail, right now I have to listen carefully Luci to be prepared against the Anomalous Dragons.
"In the end we didn’t know what we were creating, the Dragon Teeth were never complete, they would never be complete, they had no Soul or consciousness." (Luci)
"The Anomalous Cores were of only one type and I discovered this much later, they were the transformation to destruction type, so you can understand what happened." (Luci)
"What we called compatibility was actually our minds and Souls being altered to better fit the Dragon Teeth, the compatibility increasing over time was the transformation process of the Anomalous Energy altering us on its own." (Luci)
"When it reached a critical point where our instincts overrode our consciousness like a strong emotion, that was when the process of destruction began, our bodies were destroyed becoming nutrients to complete the assimilation while all the useless parts were discarded." (Luci)
"There was no reason for there to be a cockpit, there was no point in having control systems, there was no point in having materials that were not fully integrated into the exoskeleton that possesses the power of the Dragons that was also destroyed in the process." (Luci)
"My point of view changed along with all my senses, the instincts of the Dragons were amplified by my emotions and my own instincts, I spent 1 month out of control killing enemies in an endless carnage as if I were a mindless monster." (Luci)
"I wasn’t the only one, Sarazar went through the same thing in less time, he only took a few days while Arsan took 4 days less than me." (Luci)
"Our bodies no longer existed, the Dragon Teeth were our true bodies, the Anomalous Core our heart, we lost all the traits a person should have and yet we kept fighting." (Luci)
"Our power increased and we were able to control our bodies better, an automatic response instead of an external command was a glaring difference in battle." (Luci)
"That’s when we realized that where we went wrong, the Anomalous Core wasn’t attached to us but to the Dragon Tooth, that’s why it was us being assimilated instead of the other way around, but it was too late to think about that and we weren’t sure what the result would bring." (Luci)
"All the pilots over time suffered the same, but there were 8 who failed and died completely, their Dragon Teeth breaking at the same time without leaving anything but an energy disturbance behind." (Luci)
"So that’s how the Anomalous Dragons were born..." (me)
"Yes, but that was just the beginning as I said." (Luci)
"The hunger that had eased after our transformation returned even stronger to the point that some of us lost control at the slightest carelessness." (Luci)
"We tried to eat everything, but nothing worked. Some of us even ate people we swore to protect while they lost control, but it was useless. Nothing could satisfy that hunger until one of our own was destroyed in battle against the enemies. Our instincts then pointed to him as food..." (Luci)
"That was the first one. There were others after that. I, who felt disgusted by what we had done without thinking, tried to find another source of food. Thinking of a possibility, I went to the place where the unused remains of the Dragons were. It was like seeing a banquet. I didn’t even realize what I was doing before I emptied the entire place." (Luci)
"The Dragons were the only source of food. My body, like the others, were just metal pieces of the exoskeleton with the Anomalous Core inside. We were no different from empty armor or skeletons." (Luci)
"But after that meal I realized that my body could not contain all the energy I had eaten, more than half of the energy was being released from my body and the hunger was increasing once again." (Luci)
"Realizing the pattern, I tried to seal my body and release the excess energy into the empty space inside me, which worked, I could even use that energy as food by absorbing it later." (Luci)

"I told the others about this and that’s when I realized that at some point we stopped fighting the enemies, our priority had changed to seeking food and we no longer thought about protecting our worlds, our personalities and minds were changing." (Luci)
"Without us to defend, what little was left of the universe was devastated, all life was gone and the cracks in space were everywhere." (Luci)
"There was no more food either, we had devoured everything that had the scent of Dragons and our insides could barely contain so much energy, that was when our minds finally allowed us to remember what we could not protect." (Luci)
"Some could not bear what we lost, some were disgusted by what we had become and some went mad..." (Luci)
"Sarazar was the one who went the maddest, he killed many of us in his madness before he was stopped and when he regained consciousness he despaired even more." (Luci)
"After that we knew that we only had each other, we did not want to lose anyone else, but the universe was falling apart, everyone was going to die, that was when Sarazar and Arsan had a plan, to anchor a piece of the universe inside our bodies, just big enough to support us from the outside." (Luci)
"The universe was already falling apart, so it wasn’t hard to find fragments, it was also strangely easy how the Anomalous core adapted to these fragments, we also noticed that our strength increased and we could contain even more energy." (Luci)
"After that, what you know is that our universe was destroyed. We wandered aimlessly until we found a universe where we were able to enter. We found living Dragons and our hunting instinct was awakened, never to disappear again." (Luci)
"We ate, we went hunting and we traveled... that was all we did without ever stopping. We realized that the reason Dragons were considered food was because we were not Dragons. We no longer had those characteristics that were always there, and that emptiness was what incited hunger to fill that void." (Luci)
"Our personalities and minds changed over time, even our Souls changed. We were disgusting, trapped in a cycle of endless hunger." (Luci)
"We weren’t even able to see how much we had become distorted from what we once were." (Luci)
"I don’t care what you suffered, just tell me how Sarazar is different from you? Why is his presence..." (Lolth)
"He didn’t eat any Dragon, he didn’t hunt alongside us once, his will was stronger than ours, what he did was devour himself." (Luci)
"His Soul tried to devour his body and at the same time his body tried to devour his Soul, his Anomalous core somehow became the anchor of the body and Soul that tried to destroy each other, he became crazier and crazier and his own Aura carried his will to devour, wherever he went his Aura devoured space, people, Essences, Gods and Dragons without giving him a choice, his conscious mind disappeared more and more frequently while only the hungry creature remained in its place, of all of us only he had the same personality and it hurt him to realize what he was becoming was worse than what we were at that moment." (Luci)
"He sealed himself in the hope that he would die by devouring himself when there was nothing left to devour but himself, which clearly didn’t work, he’s worse... much worse... and his consciousness seems to be close to losing itself." (Luci)
"That’s why he gave us time... he wants to be stopped before he completely loses control." (Luci)
