Dragons: The Viking Saga (The Prequel)

Chapter Thirty-One: The Final Training

Mazrieth's POV

"Ladies and Vikings! Rejoice day for us all!"

A loud speech can be heard outside from the arena as I see that my Dad gave a warming welcome to all Krellian who are watching us all.

"You all know that today is the day when the graduated Viking can show his/her opportunity to kill a live dragon, eh? Like as usual?", Dad said with his enormous breath as he raised his both hands with glory.

"Yes!"

"And here we are... There are some of our juniors finally reached this chance to prove their worth to kill a real dragon.. And this can be very happy as a father...", he paused. "...that my daughter finally can show her true strength as what we do in fighting dragons..."

Dad, really?

"I am so proud of her. And here today, my daughter, Mazrieth will do her honor to kill the very first dragon...as she herself wants her vengeance.. Vikings, may I welcome, Mazrieth Ande L. Hunter!"

As he mentions my name, the gates opened wide and I appeared out with a waving at my left hand. An applause grew louder as my Dad also screams out. "Mazrieth!!"

I saw a five weapons on the table. There were crossbow, ax, hammer, sword and maces. Gregor seemly to be approaching towards me. "Choose your weapon lad.."

"Alright..", I nodded. My crimson red eyes are gazing at the weapons as I plan to choose one weapon for me. I breathed out slowly until I picked....a sword...

"Mazrieth choose a sword as her weapon.", Gregor said and he gave me a shield. "You're needing this too, Mazrieth.. Good luck..", he patted my head afterwards and walked out from the arena. I can hear as he goes out, the entrance gate closed as locked that no Vikings can go inside.

A creepy roar came out from the cage as I saw on the front of me. I wonder what it is. Maybe Monstrous Nightmare? Night Fury? Or perhaps, Deadly Nadder?

"Today, since it is your final debut on the Dragon Killing...your opponent will be..."

A stockily built, arachnid-like dragon with armored plates on its back that resembles an armadillo's and two legs crawls out from the cage as it opens, it has two ear-like appendages on its head. The most notable feature has to be its thick, braided tail that can unwind and split into three thinner ones. Each tail is equipped with a stinger much like a scorpion's. Their forelimbs act as pincers, which also resemble a scorpion's.

"Whoa...", I gasped upon as the new dragon appears on front of me.

"......the Triple Stryke!!"
