When the hammer struck the glass, the security alarm blared throughout the jewelry shop."Hurry, hurry! Blast it, the alarm's on! Security's comin'!" one of the robbers bellowed."Boss, this glass's too thick," muttered the hammer-wielding robber, frustration etched on his face as he saw only a few cracks appear."Leave it to me," snarled another young man, his veins bulging as he seized the hammer. He smashed a hole through the glass and continued breaking it."This ain't good. The bulletproof glass is busted," Lan Qingyue, squatting nearby, gasped in shock."Shut it!" snapped the robber next to her, eyeing her necklace greedily. He reached for it. "Give me that.""No!" Lan Qingyue recoiled, falling back."Huh? You're pretty," the robber remarked, his expression lecherous."Don't move or I'll shoot," he threatened, aiming his gun at her."We ain't got time for this! Keep watch!" shouted the young man at the glass counter, seizing jewelry.Meanwhile, the other robber aimed his gun at

Rose stepped out of the school gate dressed in a crisp white blouse and tailored jeans carrying a leather bag that slung over her shoulder having just completed her translation job.Her confident stride and the slight smile on her lips and refiected a job well done. One of the most difficult tasks a student could face in Draketown university was to face professor Layton Utah when it has to do with translation jobs but she was able to do it very well, so good that professor Layton nodded his head satisfactorily.Her eyes immediately locked unto Serpens who was sitting on his sleek Harley motorcycle. A smile escaped her lips as she crossed the road separating the school from where Serpens was seated with the other guys.As she reached Serpens, she placed a hand on his shoulders, her eyes locking through every other person's eyes. Her gaze shifted to Tiara's boyfriend Yul Brynner who was standing in front of Serpens, the other guys watching to see what was about to unfold.“Who the hell
The great Dragon Chapter 13 "we"ll find out his source of power,"
Yul couldn't let go of the humiliation he had suffered from Serpens. He had always been the one whom everyone feared and respected. As the heir to the Brynner's holdings, one of the most renowned fish dealers in the region, he felt really insulted.So, in the dimly lit room of his upscale apartment, Yul and a couple of his friends gathered around a sleek glass table. The atmosphere was thick with anticipation and simmering anger.Everything that had transpired between him and Serpens was still playing very fresh in his head and he was not going to go down without a fight.Sitting at the head of the table, Yul was seething with anger, nursing a bruised ego and a slight swelling on his face. Tiara sat beside him, looking worried but silent. The room was filled with a low hum of expansive electronics and the faint scene of cologne."That guy humiliated me," Yul began, his voice seething with bitterness. "We can't let him get away with this."Across from him, one of his closest friends, W
The great Dragon Chapter 14 who dares bully my sister?
Serpens and Rose arrived at his apartment, parking the Harley bike in front of the house. Rose was still reeling from the events that had happened earlier with Serpens and Tiara' boyfriend. She hadn't expected to see Serpens react that way The way he knocked down Yul effortlessly was still making her wonder where he learnt martial arts from.“Have you had martial arts lessons before?” She inquired, her curiosity piqued.Serpens's brow furrowed, “No.. not at all.” He replied. “Why'd you ask?” He pressed further.Rose shrugged, “Nothing..” she replied. “It’s just that, the way you knocked that guy out, only a true master in martial arts could do that.”“Really?” “Yes. My uncle is a martial artist. I learnt Judo and Taekwondo from him so I know a little about martial arts too.” Serpens remembered someone telling him that before. He could begin to see for himself that the dragonic power also enabled him with the skills of martial arts.“Who knows.., maybe I'm just naturally gifted in t

Inspector Lui Zhang stood at the edge of the accident scene where old Xue's grand daughter, Xin Jiang's sport's car had crashed while competing with Serpens. The mangled remains of the sports car were still resting where it had violently crashed.He walked slowly around the wreck, noting the twisted metal and shattered glass. The car was a total loss, crumpled beyond recognition. Inspector Lui found it difficult to believe that Xin Jang had survives the crash without severe fractures, if not even worse. He felt something wasn't right.Turning to the officer who was with him, “There's more to this accident than what the young man who had called us to notify us is letting on,” he said, his tone inferring doubt.The other officer looked at him wondering what he meant, “what do you mean?” He inquired.“If Xin had survived this crash without serious fractures then, it's possible there's something more to who she is or the young man who had called us.”The two of them made their way to the
The great Dragon Chapter 16: What are you hiding, Serpens?
Inspector Lui waited patiently near the campus entrance of Draketown university watching students mill about between classes. Ever since his meeting with Xin, at the hospital, he had made up his mind to look for Serpens himself and to find out what he did to Xin in aiding her quick recovery from the accident.He spotted Serpens coming out of the gate walking with a female friend. The girl was Rose. The two of them were chatting animatedly as they walked out of the campus gate.Stepping forward, Inspector Lui called out, “Excuse me,” Looking at Serpens from a distance, he didn't look like someone who actually looked out of this world. Even at the accident scene, it hadn't occurred to him until recently when he started hearing rumors of extraterrestrial beings with special powers arriving at Drake town.Serpens and Rose turned around and saw him waving at them. Serpens immediately recognised him as one of the police officers that had come to the accident scene when old Xue's granddaug

Serpens and Rose stopped at the cafeteria to grab a bite but while they were eating together, Rose couldn't help but stare at Serpens, admiring his cute looks, her mind also reeling with the thoughts of the suspicions had been looming around him.Serpens caught her staring, a wierd look in her eyes, "What's is it? Why are you staring?" He asked, his curiosity piqued."It's nothing," Rose shrugged.There was a sudden uproar from outside the cafeteria. A very ugly creature had stopped in front of the cafeteria. It looked extraterrestrial, it's eyes bulging out of its sockets.The sight of it was so scary that everyone who saw it starred running. It's head was disproportionately large with an almond shaped eyes that were completely black, absorbing all light. It had no visible nose, just two small silts for nostrils and a thin lipless mouth that stretches eerily from ear to ear.Serpens and Rose came out of the cafeteria to see the police with their guns, forming a semi circle around the
The great Dragon Chapter 18: No one gave me my powers!
Serpens couldn't hide the disappointment that etched on his face as he walked back home from class that evening. His whole day had been filled with series of disappointment. First it was his meeting with Mr Leonard where he ended up meeting Yul, unable to sell his highly priced Anrowana fish.Also, his meeting with Rose at the school's cafeteria didn't go as planned. Rose had called to inform him that she wouldn't be able to make it as she had an urgent meeting with one of her professors.The only good thing that happened to him that day was the fact that the old man who owned a small restaurant by the side of the campus had called him to help him fix the lightings in his restaurant and had given him a cheque of $2000. Even if the money was small compared to what he he could have earned if Yul hadn't turned out to be the investor who wanted the fish, he till appreciated the old man's gesture. Walking home that evening with the cheque tucked safely in his pocket, Serpens decided to p

Chapter 184: An happy ending, a fresh start
The priest stood solemnly at the edge of the grave, his weathered hands clasped around a simple wooden cross. His voice, steady and calm, reverberated through the air as he spoke the final prayers, his eyes reflecting the sorrow of the moment. The soft rustle of leaves was the only sound as Rose was laid to rest, the earth slowly covering her.Serpens stood nearby, tears silently welling up in his eyes, his heart heavy with grief. As the ceremony ended, people began to approach him one by one. Xin placed a comforting hand on his shoulder, his face solemn. Lan, always reserved, offered a quiet nod of respect. Serena’s eyes shimmered with unshed tears as she whispered her condolences. Dr. Sun, with a grave expression, grasped Serpens' hand in solidarity, while Inspector Lui, ever the stoic, simply said, "I'm sorry." Finally, Tiara approached, her eyes filled with understanding and empathy, and she gave him a brief, supportive hug.After everything was said and done, as the crowd disper

Chapter 183: Tragedy in the end
In an instant, Rose disappeared into the portal, her figure merging with the energy of the Dragon Stone. There was a flash of blinding light, and the portal sealed shut, its power absorbed into Rose’s being. The energy of the Dragon Stone flowed through her, and the stone itself crumbled to dust, its dark power dissipating into the air.Serpens and Xin watched in awe, their hearts heavy with the sacrifice that had just been made. Rose had given herself to save the world, her courage and selflessness breaking the cycle of darkness that had threatened to engulf them all.For a moment, all was quiet, and then, from the stillness, a gentle breeze began to blow, carrying with it the promise of a new dawn."No!" Serpens cried as he rushed towards her. Rose fell on his arms, her form as cold as ice. "Don't leave me, Rose," Serpens cried. "Please come back," The strange lady spoke, "This was bound to happen, greet dragon. She's your fourth sage, the one who would help you win the war agains

Chapter 182: The final show down ll
Serpens struggled to his feet, his heart pounding with fear and frustration. Winter was too strong, even with the combined might of the dragon lords. They couldn’t overpower him—not like this. But what frightened him more was the sight of Xin, now standing on the rock, her hand trembling as she raised the dragon stone toward the point where the sunlight met the sea."No!" Serpens cried out, his voice breaking with the weight of his despair. But his words fell on deaf ears. Xin, lost in Winter’s spell, placed the stone on the rock. The moment the stone touched the surface, the sunlight intensified, its beams converging on the stone and then spreading outwards, enveloping Bahamut in a blinding light.The light was quickly swallowed by a sudden darkness, a pitch-black void that seemed to emanate from Bahamut himself. The last chain around the dragon’s neck glowed fiercely for a brief moment before shattering into a thousand pieces. The sound of the chain breaking echoed like thunder acro

Chapter 181: The final show down l
The Third World Sea stretched endlessly before Serpens, a vast expanse of shimmering waters that reflected the dark, starless sky above. The air was thick with a mystical energy, a sensation both familiar and foreign, tugging at the edges of his consciousness. As he stood on the shore, the quiet lapping of waves against the rocks was the only sound, but Serpens could feel the presence of something ancient and powerful nearby.From the depths of the sea, a massive form began to rise, the water cascading off its scales like liquid silver. Doromu emerged with a grace that belied his immense size. His golden eyes, warm and wise, fixed upon Serpens with a gaze that seemed to peer into the very depths of his soul. The dragon’s scales shimmered with a soft, radiant light, contrasting the dark waters around him."Welcome, Serpens," Doromu said, his voice deep and resonant, echoing across the stillness of the sea. He lowered his head in a deep, respectful bow. "Great Dragon, it is an honour to

Chapter 180: Leading through the portal!
The uproar in Draketwon that night increased people ran to find safety from the threats of the dragons which descended upon the city like a flock of birds.It wasn't long after that the armed forces of Draketwon set into action. Helicopters, their blades slicing through the night air, emerged from the darkness. It was a show down of the humans versus the dragons, as fire bathed the entire city like a flood.The roar of the engines filled the cockpit as Captain Marcus Rourke, the seasoned leader of the air force squadron, adjusted his headset. His eyes were steely, focused on the horizon where plumes of smoke rose from the city below. The once-vibrant metropolis was now a war zone, engulfed in chaos as dragons soared through the sky, their fiery breath raining destruction upon the streets.“Echo Squadron, this is Captain Rourke,” he spoke into the radio, his voice calm but laced with urgency. “We’ve got eyes on the target. Multiple dragons are engaged, laying waste to the city. They’re

Chapter 179: Dragons emerging
Tiara sat at her usual spot in the school courtyard, the sun dipping lower in the sky as the hours ticked by. The news of the Zorvath's going through Serpens' locker in school, had become the news of the day, but that wasn't her problem.Her concern was in the fact that Serpens whom he had called to tell what had happened didn't show up in school. She couldn't help but wonder why he didn't show up after he told her he was already on his way when she called him earlier that day.After the first set of classes of the day, she decided to go to the courtyard and hoped that before the afternoon classes would commence, Serpens would show up.Her gaze flicked anxiously toward the school gates every few minutes, hoping to see Serpens' familiar figure stride through. But as the shadows lengthened and the students trickled out in groups, laughing and chatting, there was no sign of him.By now, the courtyard was almost empty, save for a few stragglers. Tiara’s worry had shifted to a gnawing unea

Chapter 178: I'm done running!
As Serpens pondered Zorvath's enigmatic riddle, a figure emerged from the trees surrounding the lake. It was a young woman with piercing green eyes and long, curly brown hair. She approached Serpens with a confident stride, her gaze fixed on him."Ah, Serpens," she said, her voice husky and mysterious. "I've been searching for you. My name is Lyra, and I possess knowledge about your past and your connection to Xin."Serpens's eyes narrowed, unsure if he should trust this stranger. But something about Lyra's words resonated deep within him."What do you know?" he asked, his curiosity piqued.Lyra smiled, her eyes glinting with secrets. "Let's just say that I can help you unlock the truth about your draconic powers and the reason behind Winter's pursuit."Zorvath, who had been watching the exchange, suddenly spoke up. "Lyra, you shouldn't be here. This is a matter between Serpens and me."Lyra turned to Zorvath, her expression unfazed. "I'm afraid I have a stake in this too, Zorvath. Se

Chapter 177: Zorvath's re-emergence
The morning routine was almost automatic. Serpens crossed the room to his wardrobe, where his clothes hung neatly on the door. As he buttoned his shirt, his mind kept drifting back to the urgency of his quest, the need to find Xin and the draconic gem.After pulling on his trousers and fastening his belt, Serpens moved to the bathroom. He splashed cold water on his face, the chill waking him up fully. He stared at his reflection in the mirror—his dark hair tousled from sleep, his eyes sharp and alert despite the fatigue that lingered at their edges. With deliberate care, he combed his hair, making sure every strand was in place, trying to impose order on at least this small part of his life.He grabbed his school bag, checking to make sure he had everything he needed: books, notebooks, the pendant that Professor Layton had given him back then, was still there—a small token that served as a reminder of his mission.Before leaving his room, Serpens took a moment to gaze out of the wind

Chapter 176: Probably the last chance!
The night was a gentle embrace, soft and inviting, perfect for slipping into the realm of dreams. The sky was clear, a deep velvet canvas dotted with a thousand twinkling stars that seemed to pulse with a quiet, rhythmic light. The moon, full and luminous, bathed the world in a silvery glow, casting long, soft shadows that danced lightly across the ground. A cool breeze whispered through the trees, rustling the leaves in a soothing lullaby that filled the air with a sense of calm and serenity.The world seemed to have slowed its pace, the hustle of the day giving way to a peaceful stillness. The sounds of the night were gentle and comforting—the distant chirp of crickets, the occasional hoot of an owl, and the soft rustle of nocturnal creatures moving about their nightly routines. Even the air itself felt different, cooler and lighter, as if it carried the essence of dreams within it, urging all who breathed it in to close their eyes and drift away.The scent of blooming jasmine and n
