Chapter 373 Seeking Cooperation [Part 2]

?Although the Elder Dragon was inside a Dome of Seawater, and was having difficulty breathing, anything could still happen.

Also, they didn’t come here to kill her.

They just wanted to make her understand that they had the strength to beat her up, which would make her reluctantly recognize them as a threat to her existence.

After many grueling minutes, Illumina allowed Eizenth’s head to pop out of the Dome of Water, allowing her to breathe.

With labored breaths, the Elder Dragon stared hatefully at her opponents and shouted angrily.

“What do you want?!” Eizenth roared.

She was already feeling very stressed as of late, and this battle had stressed her more. She, and her husband, had never antagonized Humans in the past, and lived their lives peacefully in the mountain, hunting only other Magical Beasts for food.

Eizenth knew that if she fought with the intention of bringing all these insects to accompany her to the afterlife, she would probably succeed.

But, she had no intention of dying.

She could also tell that her enemies didn’t want to kill her, especially after the Mermaid Princess allowed her to breathe, instead of trying to drown her.

This was why she decided to ask them what they wanted in order to get them to leave her alone.

Now that she was willing to talk to them, Professor Barret took the lead and told her their purpose for coming.

“We have come to investigate what really happened to your egg,” Professor Barret stated. “We want you to cooperate with us, so we can find the thief, and retrieve the egg that was stolen from you.”

Hearing his words, Eizenth temporarily forgot her anger and looked at the Human, who seemed to be the leader of the group that attacked her.

“Are you telling the truth?” Eizenth asked, feeling doubtful.

“You are an Elder Dragon,” Professor Barret replied. “You should already know whether I am lying or not.”

Eizenth snorted, but Professor Barret was right.

As one of the first, and strongest creatures in the world, Dragons had a way with words. Because of this, they knew if someone was lying or not, and she was certain that Professor Barret wasn’t lying to her.

“Fine,” Eizenth stated. “I will cooperate with you.”

Illumina glanced at Ethan, and the latter nodded his head.

The Mermaid Princess then dispersed the seawater and returned it to the blue gem on Ethan’s Sea God Trident.

She then transformed back into Ethan’s wand and flew in his direction, sliding into the pocket of his robe.

Professor Barret also released the chains that bound the Elder Dragon, making her glare angrily in his direction.

“I will now conduct the investigation,” Professor Barret stated. “You may call me Barret, and I’ll just call you Eizenth.”

Eizenth snorted while looking at the Human, who said that he would conduct the investigation. Truth be told, she didn’t mind getting outside help as long as her child was returned to her safe and sound.

Professor Barret then walked towards the entrance of the cave and took out what seemed to be a crystal ball.

But, this crystal ball was different from what Ethan had seen in the past because it was actually made from diamonds.

The Professor chanted something that was too soft for Ethan to understand. A moment later, something unexpected happened.

Two people entered the cave.

One was a Middle-aged man with brown hair. He was also wearing glasses, and a purple robe. His eyes were lifeless as he stared forward, making Professor Barret frown.

Based on his features, it was safe to assume that this person was none other than Professor Onar.

The one who was the prime suspect for stealing the Dragon’s Egg.

Behind him was an older man, who seemed to be around sixty to seventy years old.

He had gray eyes, and the top of his head was balding. He was wearing a black robe, and his wand was pointed at Professor Onar’s head.

“Get the egg,” the older man ordered.

Professor Onar didn’t even say anything in reply and walked towards the nest like a robot.

Professor Barret moved beside Professor Onar, while still holding the Diamond Crystal Ball in his hand.

It seems that the magical artifact had a certain range, which allowed it to project images of what had happened in the past.

This was one of the treasures of Brynhildr Academy and it was known as Time Mirage.

It could rewind time and project scenes that had happened in the past, but it had a limitation.

Anything that happened more than a month could no longer be projected, so it could only be used on a situational basis.

However, the current case happened recently, so it was the perfect situation to use this Divine Artifact.

Eizenth, who was paying close attention to what Professor Barret was doing, frowned.

Using her Draconic Magic, she was able to get the image of the person who had entered her nest, where her egg was located.

Because of this, she was able to see the image of Professor Onar, and describe him in detail.

But, after seeing what was happening in front of her, it was very obvious that there was some kind of foul play that was involved.

“Leviticus.” Professor Onar said in a monotonous tone, making the Dragon Egg in front of him levitate.

“That’s it! Now, come here!” the older man wearing black robes urged. “Hurry before that obnoxious Lizard returns!”

Professor Onar’s pace increased, but his expression was still devoid of any emotions. He simply followed the older man’s orders as if he was in a trance.

Everyone watched as the two people exited the cave.

Naturally, Professor Barret followed because he wanted to know what happened afterwards.

Ethan and Henry weren\'t far behind as they walked hurriedly to catch up with their Professor.

Now that they had seen how the egg was stolen, they were very curious to know how this scene would play out.

Eizenth, who now felt a bit hopeful that the Humans would be able to track down her child, had every intention of watching everything unfold until in the end.

She had also memorized the face of the older man wearing black robes, so that she could shred him to pieces the moment she laid her eyes on him.
