Slayer Of Babylon

Eric shocked when he saw Tempest. He was sleeping on the place where he left them, but the ground was different. Threes were thrown apart, and a lot of cracks were on the ground. The territory was bloody and dragon limbs, scales were everywhere.

'He fought ruthlessly,' though Eric as he walked closer to Tempest. He stood near his head. "Wake up, Tempest. We have a long way to go," he said.

Tempest slightly opened his eyes and looked at Eric. He closed again, then stood up. He opened his white, majestic wings and yawned.

"You are a fast one, ain't ya?" said Tempest with a smirk. "I thought it will take more time, ya know?" he added.

"Aside from an irritating creep, it was an easy task," said Eric with a frown. "Either way, we have to go to the other continent," he added.

"Why? Didn't find any magic?" asked Tempest with a frown.

"Nah, but it was more like a challenge," said Eric. "Or a trial to be honest. Either way, I need to pass the other three trials to acquire the ultimate magic," said Eric with a smile. "So, could you tell Belserion that I will be a little late," said Eric.

"I can, but where is that place?" asked Tempest with an interest. Eric showed him the map. Tempest looked at the map then he started laughing.

"Hahahaha! Oh, my. It's great!" Yelled Tempest. He looked at Eric and Stone with a big smile. "Yeah, it seems we are about to go to my best friend's territory," he said excitingly. "We can reach there in two days, but first you guys need a rest," he added.

Eric looked at him with interest. 'A friend, eh?' he thought. He climbed a tree and lay on a branch.

-----

They flew to the North. After they reach the continent, Tempest flew directly to volcanos. The weather was heating up as they flew closer.

"Fire dragons?" asked Eric. "Yeah!" yelled Tempest. "You are 'bout to see the fire dragon king! One of the only dragons who can fight with me head on!" he added with a smirk.

"Oh, what is his name?" Asked Eric with a smile.

"Igneel!" he said excitingly. "He is a cool guy, and just recently he became a king," he added with a mad smirk. "A pity really. If the former queen didn't be a bitch, I may pursue her while she was depressed hehe."

While Eric and Stone were sweatdropping the Tempest's behavior, they reached the destination. Fire dragons were flying on the air and active volcanos were everywhere. Tempest put them into the ground that next to an active volcano.

"I will close my ears if I were you two," said Tempest with a smirk then, "IGNEEEEELLL!" yelled Tempest with his all might, suddenly. It made a shockwave toward the direction that he yelled.

Tempest smirked and looked at Eric and Stone. They fell to the ground.

"F.U.C.K!" yelled Eric. "You shitty dragon at least give us enough time to close our ears!" he added with a frown.

"Ahahah! Sorry, brat. I am just too excited," said Tempest and suddenly he looked in a certain direction. He smiled madly as he turned Eric and Stone again. "Ah, it seems he came haha," he added with a laugh.

Eric looked at the direction. He saw three red dragons were flying towards them. Two of them were big but one was bigger, and there was a small dragon that seemed to be a baby dragon.

The biggest one was a gigantic Dragon whose bodily majority is covered with dark, red scales. His lower body, specifically his stomach, the inner portions of his long tail, and legs, are beige in color. He also had noticeable scars on his stomach and neck. His back had numerous black spikes, reaching down from the back to the end of his tail. He had a triangular head with horns, a pair of large, round eyes with yellow sclera and a sharp horn pointing upwards just above his nose. He also sports very sharp canine teeth and has claws with long, sharp, red nails. His large bony wings resemble a bat's, with rippled tips. Additionally, He had four legs.

Small one heavily resembled the big one, having inherited big one's dark-red scales, beige underside, and horn-tipped nose. Being a dragon, he was large even though he was a child with bat-like wings, and sports canine teeth and sharp claws. He bore several caudal spines around his face, with a large crystal-like horn protruding from the top of his head.

The middle one. It seemed to be a dark blue female dragon with large dark blue scaled wings. She had two horns over his head that went through backward while blue fire surrounded them. Her eyes were yellow and flames could be seen on her big, sharp claws. Her tail was long and there was fire on tip of her tail. Every flame on her body was aqua blue.

"Tempest, how many times did I said do not yell at me in my territory!" yelled the big one. "Or you want another beating?" said Igneel with a smirk.

"Ah, don't be mad fire head, we both know I will win!" yelled Tempest and looked at the other two dragons.

"So, these are your family now?" asked Tempest with a smirk.

Igneel looked at Tempest with a smirk. "Well, we are even on the matches, so there is no winner," said Igneel with a proud voice, then he sneered at Tempest. "But you can see I made the first family, haha!" yelled Igneel.

Tempest narrowed his eyes and looked at Igneel with a furry. "Ah, don't be mad. Just go apologies her already, you idiot," added Igneel while rolling his eyes. "Now, what can I do for you?" asked Igneel as he looked at Eric and Stone.

Stone was hiding behind Tempest. Igneel was way too scary for him. He was sweating non-stop and it wasn't because of the heat.

While Eric just looked at him with interest. 'He looks cool' he thought, then he looked other dragons. Small dragon looking at him arrogantly. Eric sighed. 'Prince of Dragons is an arrogant prick, eh? As if I can tell this to them,' he said sarcastically on his mind.

Tempest sighed. Igneel was his few friends and he always was a hard one. "Fine, but first. Why don't ya introduce them to us?" he said.

Igneel smirked. "Alright," he said with a big smile. "This lovely dragon here is my mate, GentleFlame and this small lad is my son, Ignia," he said with a smile.

GentleFlame bowed them while Ignia 'hmph'-ed them.

"Your son as arrogant as you when you are at his age," said Tempest with a smirk. "Yet, someone will beat him and show the way of the world, but it's not important. Why have you come this time, Tempest?" asked Igneel with an interest. "You didn't even tell me you are coming," he added.

Tempest smirked and suddenly dashed over Igneel. He punched him right on his face and send Igneel flying.

Ignia looked shocked as GentleFlame. "Oh, my," GentleFlame said, and suddenly a fireball hit tempest as he it sent him flying as well.

"You F.u.c.ker! I don't have time to fight!" yelled Igneel and he stood up with a smirk. Tempest stood up with a big smirk as well. "You sayin' that but you have a stupid grin on your face!" yelled Tempest, then Igneel and Tempest dashed themselves. They were fighting with their fists. "As if you can say that to me!" yelled Igneel as he headbutted Tempest.

They were fighting and things were getting dangerous.

GentleFlame took Ignia on her arms and stood in front of Eric and Stone. "When Igneel has that smirk on his face, things get complicated so stay there while I covering you guys, alright?" she said with a soft tone.

Eric nodded. "Thank you," he said and looked at Stone. When he saw Stone dig the ground and hide, he sweatdropped. 'Ah, it seems he still afraid of dragons,' he thought. 'But in Dragnof it was okay. Is it about Fire Dragons?' he added with a frown.

'Well, we will see I guess,' he sighed and looked at the two childish dragon kings' fight.

------------

"You fool! You think you can win against me?" roared Igneel with a smirk and punched Tempest on his abdomen. Tempest went backward a little and coughed a little.

"Ah, you know I already win against you a lot!" yelled Tempest and dash over Igneel. Igneel tried to punch his face this time, but he ducked and uppercutted Igneel.

Igneel sent flying to the air, but he landed on his feet. "You didn't just come here for a fight, right?" asked Igneel with a smirk as he split a little blood and they dashed over again.

It was just a fistfight without magic, but it was destructive enough because they were releasing their elements unintentionally with excitement.

------------------------------------------

Meanwhile in Dragnof

"What do you mean Eric is not going to back for a while?" asked Irene with a frown.

"It seems that ruin was just a trial and there is big magic if he finished all of the trials," said Belserion with a thinking pose.

Irene's mode down a little. 'I know it's important but it hurts,' he thought, then she shooked her head. 'No, Irene. You are a queen, you have to be strong for your people and Eric.'

She slapped his cheeks with a force. Her fingers made red marked on her cheeks. "Alright, since Eric is doing these things for the kingdom, I will study enchantment magic. I couldn't make any improvement since war and dragons but I can't fool around any longer," said Irene with determination.

"I will be training. Tell Sebas if there is not an important thing, the council can eat their shit, would you?" she said as she walked her training ground.

Belserion merely laughed and nodded. 'Alright, I will also go western continent and looked around after I speak with Sebas it seems,' he thought and walked away.

Number of days Eric went: 5
