Originally, they weren't supposed to go looking for it, but wait for it to come to them.
Aint Armian and Ariadne Florian, who were heading to the Continental Academic Conference venue, set up camp on the plateau and received a visit from a variant drake drawn by the firelight.
The variant drake, too old and frail, mustered courage unable to bear its hunger any longer, but unfortunately, it was courage heading toward the afterlife.
'It's as if almost all the luck in the world is pouring toward Aint Armian.'
It wasn't for nothing that he appeared as the protagonist in the prophecy book.
But if Gerhard Goldenheim's prediction was correct, such a thing wouldn't happen now.
There was no way the variant drake, whose inner core had already been plundered by Gismond Ert, could still be alive.
So it was time to go and check directly.
