Chapter 8: The Might of Earl Blaire

Kraftvoll and Belle continued to run because they thought they are still being pursued by the bandits. "I'm starting to get to really tired this time Kraftvoll, let's rest for just a little bit. Just a little bit, okay?" Bell asked. Kraftvoll replied, "But, My Lady, the scary bandits are still going after us!"

"Just a little bit, please?" Belle is really tired, she even started to be a little polite to Kraftvoll. Even though Kraftvoll's mindset is comparable to those of young adults, he is still a kid. Which is why he was easily persuaded by Belle. "Okay, but for just a few minutes, okay?" Belle nodded in response.

The weariness can be seen in the face of two children as they try to catch their breath. These two kids have been running for about an hour from the bandits. Little do they know, the bandits were occupied fighting the dragon.

After a few minutes of resting, the two heard a ferocious sound, "ROAAAAR!"

"Did you hear that Kraftvoll!?" Belle was terrified of what she heard.

"Is that perhaps the parent of this egg?" Kraftvoll asked.

"Let's run! Dad said that if I ever found a seishin beast egg and it hatch, the first thing it sees will become its owner and I really want to have it."

"Okay, My Lady. Let's just start to run so that the beast will not come to get us," said Kraftvoll.

This made Belle smile, "Okay. Thank you, Kraftvoll!" Kraftvoll was mesmerized by her smile. It's the first time Belle smiled at him so it made him happy too. Kraftvoll dazed out for a moment.

"Hey, Kraftvoll! I thought we gotta run!" Belle shouted to Kraftvoll. "Oh yeah! Let's go!"

Without any more delay, the two started running again after resting for a bit.

But the seishin beast, which they heard earlier, started to make ferocious roar again. "ROOOAAARR!"

"IT'S COMING KRAFTVOLL!!" Belle anxiously shouted.

"Let's run faster!" Kraftvoll anxiously replied.

After a few minutes, the dragon's field of vision finally reached the two kids. The dragon also saw her egg which was on the hand of Kraftvoll while running. This made the dragon more furious and it started to charge some fire seishin essence to its mouth.

Belle looked back and she was terrified of what she saw. "The dragon is here!!" she frantically stated.

Kraftvoll also looked back, "It seems like its doing something."

After a few moments, the dragon finished up charging all the seishin fire essence. It started breathing a terrifying fire toward the kids.

"MY LADY, WATCH OUT!!" As Kraftvoll said this, he started to cover her up using his body.

After a few seconds, the two kids started to realize that they were not hurt at all.

"We're alive?" Kraftvoll wondered. And when he tries to see what happened. He saw the Earl blocking the vicious fire produced by the dragon.

"Are you two okay?" the Earl asked. "Yes, Your Lordship!"

They were saved by the Earl! Fortunately, Earl Blaire finished battling the bandit in the front carriages and was about to head back when he heard the roar of the dragon.

"You dare attack my daughter, you piece of shit! I'm gonna show you a world of hell!" Earl Blaire started to gather up the vicious black aura. This black aura represents that Earl Blaire is a practitioner of the darkness element. The dark element started to form an incredibly fast-rotating blade in the Earl's hands.

"I beseech thee, swallow all those who oppose me, Darkness Blitz!"

In a matter of seconds, the Earl cut the dragon's head easily. "No one mess with my people!"

The Earl went to Kraftvoll' and Belle's side, "Are you two okay?" he asked "Yes, Your Lordship. Thanks to you" Kraftvoll replied.

"Fatheeer! Thank god, you made it in time! I thought we were gonna die here!" Belle said with little tears in her eyes.

"I'm glad you're safe, dear. Okay, let's go back to the carriage."
