"Do I look like babysitting?" Fetahaya asked the other realms' people while cradling the sleeping child in his arms. He suddenly missed his human sons, who had aged before them.

"My children are also troublemakers and are hard to deal with."

He smiled as he wished that his sons were in a better place now.

He is sharing good memories with the other realms' people who just happened to pass by. However, these transparent beings suddenly rushed out to get away from him.

"Why?" He confusingly watched them disappear one by one. "Wait! What's wrong?" he asked, looking behind him to see if there was anything to be afraid of, but there was nothing to be concerned about.

"Wait, other worlders can not affect the other realms' people unless there's a jumper here." He hides the child with his body using one arm, and he stands to see and be prepared for any kind of attack.

The Dragon became alone in the dark in the destroyed part of the forest.

"What is it?" As soon as he activates his detection magic at the highest level, his eyes roll from looking at the surroundings and stop at looking at the child in his arms. "Fuck!" He cursed, and at the same time, he threw away the child in his arms.

The child's body swings up to the sky and effortlessly breaks its way down, flying on its own. While his eyes were still closed, he controlled the wind to fly closer to the dragon.

"Dragon Lakas, long time no see." The child greeted the dragon as he slowly opened his supposed to be dark red eyes were now turned into steel gray, resembling a diamond.

Fetahaya's brows twitched, and he subconsciously took a step back.

[Does he know the original dragon?]

The dragon that Fetahaya possessed was named Lakas, and the only thing she knew about the original was that the dragon was living in solitude after he got separated from his friend, the blue wolf.

Fetahaya has some fragments of the original dragons' memories but never looked into them thoroughly because he wanted to give the original dragon his privacy.

"Are you possessed, kid?" He asked instead, having a weird feeling since the kid was oozing with a tremendous aura that was also hurting him.

[I haven't fully recovered yet!]

Ndulou scoffed. "What is this? You're not Lakas?" The gaze of the child sharpened.

"Then I can kill you," Ndulou plainly said, while rushing forward to surprise the dragon.

Baaaaaaam!

The child crashed into the shield that the dragon hurriedly made. The outer layer was shattered instantly, but he managed to retain his last few layers of his shield, and Ndulou was looking straight at him while his claws were piercing into his sturdy shield, which seemed to be brittle for Ndulou, who was acting like a beast.

Now that the Dragon had a closer look at Ndulou, he could now observe him and guess what had possessed the child.

"Wolf? How did he possess the child while I was holding him?" he mumbled while making new layers of shields.

"Hey, you keep saying that I possess this body, when you are the one who doesn't own that body."

He let the child show off his sharp fangs and said, "Tell me what happened to Lakas." Using his claws, he crashed through the layers of shields the dragon was making.

The dragon decides to use his tail to attack. He wraps his tail in magma and roughly swings it toward the child.

Ndulou's body was slammed down by the sizzling tail of the dragon, and he ended up with a lot of burns and blood on his body.

Pwe! He spits out blood from his mouth. He then gets back on his feet and looks at the dragon brightly, "This child is too weak! That damn Loki reincarnates me into a weak boy!"

"Reincarnate?" Fetahaya repeated what the child said with so much confusion.

[Does this child have a shady past?]

Fetahaya cannot think more since the child is about to launch another attack. Ndulou surrounded himself with a unique golden aura with strong dominating power that made the confident dragon unusually nervous.

Ndulou kicked off the ground and his body shot directly toward the dragon.

Fetahaya decides to attack as well, rather than to create a new shield that might be crashed anyway, so he chooses to counter an attack to immobilize the child.

[I know more about him after I check the original dragon's memories, but first I need to stop this crazy bastard]

She gathered all his small amount of mana that he had just replenished a while ago into his mouth to cast his fire breath.

His time to cast them is shorter because the kid is already rushing toward him.

When Ndulou is just 5 meters away from the dragon.

Fetahaya shoots his fire breath that eats the whole body of the child.

Subsequently, his attack that created smoke covers up the area, then the child surprisingly reappears out of the smoke and continues to traverse towards him. The dragon instantly spun and hit the child with his tail as if he was hitting a baseball ball.

The child's body was sent flying again. This time he flew farther away, but the dragon could see him because of the golden light that still surrounded Ndulou's body. The child flew out like a meteorite.

Upon crashing down at the farthest distance from where they were fighting, he was welcomed by four individuals he didn't recognize, and one of them, who looked like an ordinary human servant, called him Master, compared to the three who seemed to be mutants. In spite of his weak appearance, the one calling him master is obviously stronger than the three.

The child smiled while blood was dripping on his face. His vision was blurry.

"What is this? Y-you're bleeding a lot! Let's go back!" Lucas could not use healing magic, so he cast teleportation magic instead, but he could not finish it because Ndulou's arms pierced right into his body and gouged out his heart with his sharp claws.

"M-mast-"

He didn't finish his words because Lucas lost consciousness and the child kicked him to the side and also played with Lucas's heart in his palm.

"Shit! Run!" The lady raven shouted and cast teleportation magic. She did it while running. The two other mutants run after her because she is the only one who can cast it.

She was not only trembling because of the vicious child, but she could also feel the mana of the dragon coming over. The child noticed the three running mutants and went after them first. He overran the bullheaded guy, and twisted his head and gouged out his eyes. Weirdly, the child did it with a pure smile.

The remaining two panic as they try to escape. The casting was almost done, and two started to disappear. "uh uh" the child smiled mischievously and cut off the arm of the fish-looking guy before it could entirely disappear.

"What a shame"

"Child" the dragon called out. He didn't expect that the child would be thrown into a place with people.

"I just sent you flying and you killed two people?" He looked at Lucas with pity.

Ndulou doesn't respond and swings around the bluish arm of the fish-looking guy.

Fetahaya sighed and changed into his other form.

"Dryad?" Ndulou tilted his head as he observed the lady in front of him, "Do you think you can defeat me with just a transformation?" He sneered at the dragon.

Fetahaya starts to run towards the child and she reveals two whips in her hand. "Let me tame you kid."

The whip was wrapped in electricity that can painfully pierce and burn your skin.

Everything that was slashed with the whips was sharply split in two.

Ndulou gathers his golden aura again and reveals his fangs and claws.

The two almost clashed with one another, but Lucas suddenly appeared in between and received both attacks.

"How come you are still alive?" Both of them look at the heart of the human who is lying cold on the ground.

"How dare you control my master body!" Lucas shouted as his body turned red and his hair grew longer. The temperature also became hotter, and a red magic circle appeared below Ndulou's feet. The red chains started to attack and steadfastly pierced the child to bind its soul.

"Get away!"

Fetahaya instantly shouted as she asked him to stop his casting, "Lucas, don't pull his soul out! He is a reincarnated soul! He has the same soul as Ndolou! Bind him instead! SEAL him!" she advised. If only she had the right amount of mana, she could do it easily. She's relieved that Lucas can do it because she is a Tamahaling member tribe who is somewhat specialized in sealing.

Lucas instantly picked up on what the dragon was saying and changed his casting from expulsion to sealing.

His human body cannot take all the casting and power he is using, so his skin opens up every second.

"You bastard! No one can seal me again!" Ndulou shouted furiously as his voice faded and his eyes turned back to red.

As the sealing is completed, Ndulou's eyes start to tear up while walking forward. "L-Lucas'' he reached out his arms to Lucas, who collapsed on the ground,

"I did this to you, I-I-I am..." Both of them were bathing in their own blood. "I did this to you."

"Lucas" Ndoluu could not say anything else but to call out his servant's name. He could remember everything that he had done while he was not in control of his own body.

"What should I do?" he looked at Fetahaya, trembling and full of tears, asking her to heal his servant.

"Master," he returned his gaze to Lucas, who called him, "Don't worry, I won't die. This is not my original body. I am not actually a human. Young master Ernesto is back. Wait for me at the Marquis Castle. he is loo-"

Lucas can not finish what he is saying because his soul left the human body he possessed. Ndulou froze in front of his servant, who he killed.

"Hey kid, you cannot go home looking like that. Let's get to my lair." She grabbed the child's shoulder to shake him. The child was still frozen, and only his shaking eyes were looking around at the bloodied body of his servant.

Fetahaya let out a deep sigh and picked up the child who was the same height as her.

"Let's leave that. That body is not his original body." She looked at the Tamahaling tribe member's former body and sighed once more.

[I thought this one wasn't soft, but Tamahaling really are soft-natured]

she hasn't reached her lair yet but another thought comes to her mind that gives her another set of headaches

[oh! those two who escaped, what should I do with them? Their looks are also disturbing]

The existence of mutants being are also a big concern.

She shakes off her thoughts for a while and takes care of the child first.

Everything would be easy if she had her mana. She would need to manually do everything for a while.

She wiped off the dried blood on the child's face and prepared a warm soup to calm him down.

"kid asked me anything," she stated.

"ate Fe" he starts to cry again.

"Oh gosh." Fetahaya comes closer to him and wipes his tears. "No more crying, calm down." She lets him blow his nose into the handkerchief she is holding.

"hic, hic, am I a bad child? hic hic can you kill me instead?"
