Chapter 931: Eniwse's Memory



A crimson sea of stars stretched across the endless expanse, high beyond a drunken sky, too dissolute in its infinite gloom of drifting dark clouds that blotted out its grand visage, making it rarely seen and appreciated in all its splendor and beauty.

On the earth far beneath, towering rock mountains covered the vast desolate land, oppressed by darkness, protecting it with their enormous presence and aimed defiant spears at the sad sky with their jagged peaks.

The cold winds howled like screaming banshees as if manifesting the conflict and tension between heaven and earth.

A winged ruler of the skies soared over the suppressed yet proud rocky peaks, revisiting the same familiar and unfamiliar scenes on a seemingly neverending loop.

Eniwse did not know for what reason her consciousness was brought into this world, but she had lost count of how many times she had watched the same scenes unfold on repeat.

In this strange dreamland, she had no control and no body of her own. She could only be a silent spectator and see the world through the eyes of the winged creature - a red dragon that shared some resemblance to her dragonification form.

'Is this a memory of another life?' Eniwse suspected.

Nevertheless, she continued to watch the red dragon soar over the endless mountains, seemingly in search of something hidden in the depths of the darkness.

Eventually, the scene finally changed with a single mighty dragon roar.

The vast mountain peaks trembled, and the screeching winds went eerily silent, seemingly withdrawing all sounds from the region. Only the oppressive darkness of a mountain peak spread and rose as earthen shadows were chipped off like rolling waves and sinking quicksand, revealing the finer details of it.

An angry face was shortly discovered on the colossal mountain as it stood up like an erected stone pillar that could pierce into the heavens.

"Insolent dragon! How dare you trespass on this Lord's territory and disturb his slumber! Your crime will not go unpaid! Leave your life behind this Lord!"

The furious colossal titan grabbed at the red dragon with its enormous hand.

Although the earthen arm moved slowly, it was large enough to cover huge distances in a short time. It caught the red dragon and pinned it to the ground heavily. The earthen surface ruptured instantly, sending out ripples of seismic shock.

However, the red dragon was not found under the colossal titan's palm after it was raised.

Bam!

A strong force suddenly struck the colossal titan's left cheek, staggering its rigid body and knocking it off balance. The colossal titan fell over and slammed into the ground, followed by countless tremors.

"Mountain King, you are a tyrannical and irresponsible ruler! You have poorly governed your land and destroyed many innocent villages in this region! Today, I shall slay you on behalf of justice for the deceased!"

"Audacious! How dare a mere Rank 4 mortal being challenge this Lord! You are overestimating yourself, dragon!"

The battle between a Peak-level Rank 4 Red Dragon and a Low-level Rank 5 Colossal Titan raged on for three days.

Although the Colossal Titan possessed divine strength due to its massive body, it was also very brittle. After being repeatedly chipped away, it was ultimately destroyed by the red dragon.

Even so, it wasn't an easy fight. In fact, it was very tough!

The red dragon stepped on the colossal titan's shattered head and roared to the sky as if to celebrate its hard-earned victory.

Watching up to this point, Eniwse didn't find anything wrong until she felt like her field of vision was suddenly distorted. Moments later, an incomparably thin and sharp water blade flashed across the region without warning.

The dragon's roar was cut short, and Eniwse's field of vision began to rotate 180 degrees while falling to the ground.

Darkness followed shortly after, robbing all of Eniwse's eyesight.

Only the instant pain of decapitation lingered, shaking Eniwse up. She felt like she had experienced it before. The longer she observed the dream world, the more vivid and clear it became to her.

What she was seeing was very likely a piece of memory from her past life as a red dragon. Despite realizing that, she didn't have much of a reaction since the past no longer had anything to do with her.

Only her present life mattered.

Nevertheless, she couldn't help but want to know who instantly decapitated her at the last moment. Alas, the attack had arrived so quickly and without warning that there wasn't much information to work with.

However, there were at least some clues.

Shortly after the decapitation happened, Eniwse remembered hearing the annoyed voice of a woman saying a few things.

"Too noisy."

"Damn pest... I should have tortured it."

"My experimental subject is destroyed now."

...

While waiting in the darkness for the scene to relive itself, Eniwse suddenly noticed the memory fragment did not replay itself from the start again.

"I've regained my body?" Eniwse uttered with surprise.

Having spectated through the eyes of the red dragon for so long, she didn't expect to regain

her body and movements.

However, she wasn't alone, as another copy of herself manifested in the darkness. It

immediately glared at her, then pounced on her viciously.

"Give me back my body, thief! Someone like you should have never been born! This is my body! My body, I say!"

Eniwse's copy had Eniwse pinned under its body as it viciously pulled on her hair.

Eniwse struggled to break away from her copy but found out she only wielded the strength of an ordinary person, the same as her copy. Yet, it felt like her copy was even stronger than her.

As such, Eniwse was helplessly rooted under her clone as she struggled to fight it off her.

"Give me back my body, thief!"

"What are you talking about?! This is my body! You are the thief who copied my look!"

"Liar, liar, pants on fire! Would a body thief look like this!?"

Eniwse's copy forced Eniwse's head to turn and look at her reflection in a puddle it made appear. However, Eniwse didn't see the face of her regained appearance in the dream world.

Instead, it was the decapitated dragon.

"You are a body snatcher! I am the real one!"

"You're wrong! I'm not a thief! This is my body!"

Although the copy's words made Eniwse doubt herself, she still denied its claim. She wanted

to believe her body belonged to her.

Even if she was a dragon in her previous life, she was reborn in her current life's body without

any prior memories of her past life.

How could there be another soul for the body?

When Eniwse thought up to that point, she began to doubt her copy's existence. It wasn't real.

It had to be a mental demon or something!

"You're just a fake! You are not real!" Eniwse wanted to believe.
