I Got Reincarnated By The Goddess Because I'm Abnormal??

Chapter 26

Red's Perspective

"How long will you keep me waiting?"

"Shut up.... Old guys need to sleep at least six to eight hours a day..."

"Just say the truth that you got drank last night and failed to wake up early...."

We're now currently outside the inn and about to depart towards the destroyed village... It's currently dawn I think five thirty in the morning at earth's time... I know it's early but our meeting is at noon so I want to finish the investigation early.... The human continent have clocks to tell the time unlike the demon continent who knows how to count time but doesn't have clocks for some reason....

We left the town and when we determined that there are no humans near the vicinity, we ran towards the village which only took us a couple of minutes since it's not that far....

Upon arriving, the smell of burnt woods is what greeted us.... This village is really charred to the ground and you can see some of the burnt corpses of the villagers... We learned from the inn that only a number of people survived the attack, and most of them we're killed.....

"This is weird...."

"What do you mean??"

The old man suddenly talked....

"You see, there are still remnants of flames but normal flames disappears when it doesn't have anything to get transferred with anymore.... Also I feel magical attributes from those flames which are really weird... It's faint but I can sense it..."

I just looked at him waiting for him to continue.... It's true that these lingering flames releases faint magic attributes as if it's a kind of spell, but aren't their breaths made from mana?? Like the water breath of Park....

"Dragons breath isn't made with mana.... It naturally comes from inside our body and its type is depending on what element we possess.... So it's really weird that these flames have lingering mana given that it came from the mouth of the dragon...."

Is that so?? W-wait?? Does this mean that the stomach of Hector the earth dragon is full of stones, since his breath attack are stone?? I mean that literally, he shoots stones from his mouth in also different sizes.... Guhhh.... Just thinking of having stones inside my body feels really painful....

"So what do you think the reason is?"

I stopped imagining things and went back to reality and asked him.....

"I don't know.... This is the first time in my life that I encountered such thing...."

"Hmm... So even the oldest of the ten elder dragons haven't encountered such thing.... Hmm... If these flames are made with magic, then do you think it's possible that it's not a dragon to begin with??"

"No... I'm certain of it... We used Everleigh's magic to check the memories of the dragon that saw it and it really exists, but when Hector and the others went here to check the dragon is already gone... And since the mana that leaks from these flames are so faint, that is the reason they didn't notice it.... Because unlike me, all of them resorts to brute strength...."

Hmmm... That is true, when I fought them only Ifrit is the one that combined using different magic spells and his physical strength.... While the others only resorted to their physical strength, they also used magic but it's only simple ones like body strengthening....

There's something that I learned with this.... The black dragon is not a true dragon like Ifrit and the others.... My best guess is that it's an artificial dragon created by someone, something similar to a homunculus I think.... Well I will know when I see it....
