I Received System to Become Dragonborn
Chapter 82 Get The Key Back

The three of them came out in a silent and dark corridor. Erend glanced around the top corners of the wall. Intending to look for security cameras that might be installed between the walls. Of course, a lot of cameras are installed.

Erend didn't know if the camera could reveal those hidden behind the invisible Magic shroud made by Saeldir. But he chose to believe it. Erend had already seen how strong Saeldir's Magic really was.

He can make them completely disappear and undetectable to the human eye. The security camera shouldn't be a problem for Magic Saeldir.

"Where is the place?" Erend asked Billy in a whisper.

Billy, who had been staring at Anna's cellphone screen and fiddling with it, took a few seconds before answering. It was because Billy was busy doing other things.

"Over there." Billy then gave them directions.

Erend and Lt. Boartusk showed no protest at Billy's response which took longer than it should have. Billy was doing something else.

Because of that, he couldn't give a response as quickly as he should have. They both understood that and it was part of the plan. Therefore, they didn't say anything and simply followed Billy's directions.

Saeldir who didn't know what they were doing just followed them. There is only one goal. He wanted to get the key as quickly as possible.

They arrived in front of a steel door. Behind this door is the room Billy points to. It should be in this room, the key lies and is waiting to be picked up.

"There's an alarm going off if we force it open," Billy said.

Erend's hand that wanted to hold the door handle stopped a few inches in the air. He turned to Billy in disbelief.

"Why did you just say it now?!" Erend hissed stifled.

"Sorry. Been very busy," Billy said. Without the slightest feeling of guilt. He turned his attention back to Anna's phone.

"What is it?" Saeldir asked.

"There is an alarm that will sound if we force this door open. We need your Magic to deal with it," Lt. Boartusk said.

Saeldir just nodded and tilted his head at Erend to tell him to step aside. So Erend stepped aside and Saeldir stretched his hand towards the door.

Lt. Boartusk and Erend spread their eyes around.

The corridor was still silent. This was quite strange because this place was a base for covert operations.

Negative assumptions began to appear in their heads.

What if it turns out that this base has been abandoned? that means it's meaningless for them to be here. And that means the crystal key has also disappeared from its original place.

If that were the case, then the situation would be much more difficult and dangerous than before.

But other bad things can happen too. What if it turns out that a trap has been prepared for them? And now the soldiers were waiting for them from hiding.

Waiting for them to be caught off guard and then attacking with all their might.

Saeldir was indeed here with them. Even though Erend saw for himself how strong Saeldir was, he wasn't in his own world right now.

His power was reduced so much. Saeldir wouldn't be able to deal with attacks coming from multiple directions at the same time.

A click on the door startled them. Pull them out of those bad thoughts.

"I think it is clear now," Saeldir said. "Let us go in."

Erend was back at the front. But before he opened the door and entered, Erend felt that he had to prepare for everything that might be waiting behind this door.

[ Skill activated: Dragon Scale (Lv.1) ]

Erend's skin turned to be covered in red and black scales.

"What did you do it for?" Saeldir asked while looking at Erend in surprise.

"We have to get ready, don't we?" Erend replied.

Saeldir retreated to the very rear. Erend looked at Billy.

"You'd better concentrate for now."

Billy answered with a nod then put the phone back in his trouser pocket. Erend started to put his hand on the door and then pushed it slowly.

As soon as the door was opened suddenly there was a flash of light accompanied by an explosion sound. Saeldir, Billy, and Lt. Boartusk were startled and stared ahead.

But Erend was already rushing forward and holding the shotgun held by LTC. Ibis.

'BUAGH!'

Erend slammed his fist into LTC. Ibis's face sent him crashing against the wall. The shotgun was now out of his hands.

Fortunately, Erend had already activated his Skill, otherwise, he would be dead by now.

Billy and Lt. Boartusk immediately scanned the room. But they only see LTC. Ibis who was sprawled on the floor with a gasping sound was holding his nose.

Lt. Boartusk ran towards him and sent a kick to his face.

'BUAGH!'

LTC. Ibis's head jerked back against the wall. Lt. Boartusk grabbed his collar and spoke.

"Where's the key?" Lt. Boartusk asked in a sharp voice.

LTC. Ibis laughed. "You're not getting out of here. The sound of my shot must have woken everyone in this building."

'BUAGH!'

'BUAGH!'

'BUAGH!'

Lt.Boartusk doesn't want to hear his bullshit anymore. He dealt the Lieutenant Colonel three blows to silence him.

"Where's the key?!"

"What are you doing Adrien? Now you are helping the Elf who killed your friends?" LTC. Ibis can still chatter.

Even though his body is beaten but he still has the spirit to remain an annoying person.

Lt. Boartusk sighed and turned to Erend and Billy. Erend and Billy immediately understood and they proceeded to rummage through every drawer for the key.

"Listen," Lt. Boartusk said to LTC. Ibis. "All your deeds will soon be known by everyone in the Republic of Ascaria. You, your friend Coil, and this whole operation will be over."

LTC. Ibis finally fell silent. He looked at Lt. Boartusk with a flat face.

"Then, what do you expect to happen after that? Your peaceful life will return?" LTC. Ibis said. "Coil and I just took a little advantage of a loophole that happened to appear. You have no idea who you're dealing with!"

Lt. Boartusk stared at LTC. Ibis for a while. Until then, Erend's voice came.

"I found it!"

But once Lt. Boartusk and Billy turned their eyes to Erend, LTC. Ibis immediately pushed Lt. Boartusk and then jumped onto his bed.

LTC. Ibis took a gun from under his pillow and then directly aimed the gun at all of them in turn.

"Stay where you are or I'll shoot!"

[ Skill activated: Dragon Scale (Lv.1) ]

Erend reactivated his skill and rushed towards LTC. Ibis.

The shocked LTC. Ibis pointed his gun at Erend and fired. But the bullet he fired was only bounced off by Erend's scale.

LTC. Ibis was finally able to see Erend's true form. Mixed red and black scales enveloped Erend's body. Makes him look like a monster that came to take his life.

'BANG!'

'BANG!'

'BANG!'

LTC. Ibis fired all the bullets in his gun. But nothing had any effect on Erend.

"What are you...?" LTC. Ibis muttered with a look of horror.

His face was deathly pale and he fell limply on his bed. Erend got closer and then hit LTC. Ibis's hand holding the gun.

The gun hit the wall and broke into several pieces.

"You're planning on using our family, right?" Erend asked in a growling voice. Coupled with its looks, it makes LTC. Ibis sank into an even more intense fear.

"H-How did you know?" LTC. Ibis asked in a trembling tone.

Erend smirked. "That's not important. What's important now is that all your plans will go to waste. Your life is over. We've uploaded all the evidence of your crimes to the media."

LTC. Ibis gritted his teeth to try to shake off his fear.

"You can't protect them forever. You think we're your biggest enemies?" LTC. Ibis said. "Just like I told Adrien. Above us, there are people who already know about the existence of the fantasy world and its powers. You think they'd stop that easily?!"

"You think we did it to protect them?!" Erend lifted LTC. Ibis easily.

"We're doing all this because we want to defend ourselves. We're tired of being persecuted and if you guys get in trouble for us again, I swear I'll destroy everything to nothing!"

After that Erend threw LTC. Ibis to the other side of the room. He made a rattling sound as he fell.

Erend turned d around and then threw the crystal key to Saeldir. Saeldir nodded in satisfaction.

"Let's get out of here," Saeldir said.

Outside, they heard a noise coming toward this room.

"Are you done?" Lt. Boartusk asked Billy.

"I've uploaded everything. Now we just have to wait for the results," Billy replied.

"Good." Then Lt. Boartusk nodded at Saeldir. "We can get out of here now."

Saeldir created the Portal and they all went inside. When the soldiers entered the room, they only found a messy room and LTC. Ibis was unconscious.
