Book 6: Chapter 229
Ramon stared up at the sky. Behind him, Grimmy, Leila, and Gloria were staring up at the sky as well. After a few seconds passed, Grimmy let out a massive yawn, his eyes squinting as small licks of fire escaped from his mouth. Leila inhaled deeply through her nostrils, yawning while keeping her mouth shut. Gloria rolled her neck from side to side, cracking it, before looking at Ramon. Are you sure youre not lying?
The moon turned red; I swear! Ramon said, turning his head to look at his family. Koza and Snuffles saw it too!
Alright, Grimmy said, smacking his lips while lowering his head. We believe you. Do you know when its going to turn red again?
Ramon blinked. How would he know that? He came out here to ask them about the phenomenon. No, the small dragon said. He opened his mouth.
Before Ramon could say anything else, Grimmy yawned again. Then, the black dragon said, stifling another yawn, do you know if it is even going to turn red again?
No, Ramon said, dragging the word out. His eyes widened, and he raised his front paws before stepping down on them. But what if it does?y shrugged. Maybe the giant root will come out of the red moon again, he said. When that happens, you can call us out here again.
But it happened in an instant, Ramon said, gesturing wildly with his front paws while standing on his hindlegs. If you go back inside, by the time youre done getting up, itll already be gone!
Alright, Grimmy said and flopped onto his stomach, letting his limbs splay outwards. What if we shut our eyes over here, and if it happens again, well see it?
I dont want to sleep outside because Ramon thought he saw something, Gloria said. Its cold out here.
Leila raised an eyebrow. Hide them where?
Grimmy looked around before shrugging. Dig a hole in the ground? he asked. Dirt is a great hiding spot. Most people dont like getting dirty.
Leila snorted. Ill watch over them, she said. You can fly over and see whats happening. If something delicious happens to appear, remember to save some for me.
And me, Ramon said before Grimmy could respond.
Of course, Grimmy said, glancing at Gloria. If theres something to eat, Ill get some for you as well.
The large, black dragon leapt into the air, flapping his wings as he flew towards the roots landing point. It hadnt touched the ground yet, but it was easy enough to tell where it was going to make contact. Grimmy squinted as he approached the root, keeping his distance. If an explosion occurred when the root collided with the ground, he didnt want to be there.
The earth trembled, and the surrounding trees shook as the tip of the root pressed down against the surface of the continent. An amber light erupted, washing over the region. The light faded, revealing a large wooden circle standing upright with red lightning flickering inside the area of the wooden monument. A rift appeared, and a familiar figure walked through.
Grimmy blinked and flew closer to the platform created by the root. Vur?
Vur raised his head. Hi, Grimmy, he said as another person walked out of the portal from behind him.
Hello, Vur. Whos that? Grimmy asked, pointing at the well-dressed man with a dazed expression on his face.
Vurs gaze followed Grimmys claw. He nodded upon seeing Kim Hajun. Hes a hero, Vur said.
