Eisendrache started crying as soon as his mother turned into light particles. ?? ??? ???? ?? ???? ???? ???????s, ????s? ??s?? ?ovel(?)?re.n?t
Grey didn't rush to move close to him, he stayed in the same location as he watched the saddened Eisendrache.
He stayed for a little while, before walking over to where Eisendrache was located.
"Hey…"
Eisendrache looked at Grey while prepared to attack. He was in Rank Five while Grey was a Peak Venerable which was equivalent to the stage his mother was in, Rank Seven. Even his mother at the Peak wouldn't be able to defeat Grey, much less a Mid stage Rank Five Dragon.
"Don't do that. Even your mother in her prime can't beat me, much less you in your current state." Grey's words was like pouring cold water on his body, Eisendrache calmed down, but the tears on his face were evident.
"I can't say I understand how you feel, but to a certain extent, I know what it feels like losing a parent, both in my situation…"
Grey tried to calm Eisendrache down, after all, he was only a child. Even though he was quite large for a little Dragon, he was still only a child.
Grey spoke with him and was able to go close to him after a while. Eisendrache wasn't evil, he just didn't feel okay with what just happened.
Grey didn't rush his conversation with him which gave him the chance to accept him.
Eisendrache was a little child Grey had to raise, and after having to deal with Void's shenanigans, he didn't think Eisendrache would be worse.
Void was a magnet for trouble, he literally always goes in search of trouble actively which was a characteristic Grey thought only Klaus possessed.
After they stayed for a while, Grey said.
"I promise to help your mother take revenge. I know it's your job, but I can't allow a child like you to take on such a responsibility. He's someone I can deal with now, but there's no way I can sneak into the tribe." Grey explained, he looked at the agitated Eisendrache and said, "I'll wait till I'm strong enough to do whatever I want."
Eisendrache didn't see a problem with his statement. The fact that Grey passed on his supposedly payment over to him meant that he wasn't like other humans, he was greedy, but to a certain extent. And when he saw the memory of his mother with Grey, he saw the place where Grey was asking for revenge. This meant he had it in mind, but would only do it when he could.
Eisendrache didn't say anything more and asked when they could leave this place.
"Well… you're a Dragon. As much as I would like to take you out of here with me openly, I can't. You're one of the most sought after Magical Beasts in the world. The second you step out, even other Dragons will want you." Grey didn't dare to take the risk of bringing a Dragon out with him.
He didn't mind keeping him in his spatial storage, but the problem is that, unlike Void and the bunny leader, the Dragon couldn't enter on his own.
He couldn't keep a living Magical Beast in there, but Void could.
Eisendrache looked at Grey, with a sad expression.
"Don't worry, I have a way to sort this out." Grey consoled him before contacting Void.
'Hey bud, come over to help.' He transmitted his voice to Void.
'There's a battle ongoing, once it's done I'll come.'
Grey didn't have any issues with that, rather, he started playing around with Eisendrache, seeing how proficient he was with his elements.
It took a while but Void came over eventually.
"Fuck! Why are you so deep underground?!"
Void complained so he appeared with water falling around him. He hated getting wet, but he made a mistake when calculating Grey's location and appeared inside the depths of the lake. He was soaked, to say the least, and was fuming!
"Stop complaining, Void." Grey said.
When Eisendrache saw that the figure Grey was waiting for was a cat, he was taken aback. Originally, he thought the person Grey was waiting for was another human, he never expected the figure to be a Magical Beast. And given how Void spoke to Grey, it was clear that their relationship wasn't that of a Magical Beast and a human.
"Oh, a giant lizard, how nice!" Void said as he looked at Eisendrache.
"Stop being rude, Void." Grey reprimanded Void before saying, "This is Eisendrache…"
Grey told Void about what happened when he came here and Void couldn't help but take another look at Eisendrache.
"So you're saying we have a means of transport now?" Void asked.
Grey couldn't help but facepalm. He just recalled how Void treated Dragons. Unlike humans, Void felt Dragons were inferior creatures which was a shocking thing to say.
Dragons are even more powerful than humans, yet Void felt that they were inferior to him. Void has never seen Dragons as beasts above him in any way.
"Void, he's like a baby brother to you. Don't tell me you want to use your baby brother as a stead?" Grey asked with a long face.
"Well, he's quite big. What's the problem with sitting on his head?" Void retorted.
Grey peeked at Eisendrache and gave him a look of 'reduce your size'.
Eisendrache did as told by Grey and reduced his size to the same as Void.
"I've already seen your size, do you think you won't be my stead?" Void asked.
"Void, don't annoy me." Grey said with a cold expression.
When Void saw Grey's expression, he smiled pleasantly and said, "I'm joking. Welcome to the family oversized lizard."
Seeing the change in Void's disposition, even though he still referred to him as an 'oversized lizard', he noticed he at least gave in to Grey's demands. Now he didn't have to worry about being oppressed by Void.
"I have to hide him in the spatial storage. Do what you're good at."
