Rise of the Immortal Black Dragon King

Kouske's POV
Right now I'm in the school where a large commotion is taking place.

Saki and Rin transferred to my class. Well, the thing is she came in a Lamborghini which caught the eyes of everyone. I mean, who brings in Lamborghini to a children's school? Isn't that a bit over the top?

There were even some buffed-up bodyguards who came with her. Those bastards were holding several gift boxes.

Every student in the school was looking at them like hawks from their respective classroom windows. I mean, they surely stand out. She even came late when the classes had already begun.

The principal came running outside to see what all the commotion was about. Even he was stunned seeing that a little girl was the cause of all this.

People walking on the road were also curiously peeking inside. The principal first made the school guards disperse the crowd.

He walked to one of Saki's guards to ask what was going on. In doing so he found out she was one of the two children transferring in today. He didn't think it would cause so much pain just because he allowed a rich kid in. I mean, there are already many rich kids in this school.

He politely asked for the guards to stand outside the school. Those guards kept refusing. But when Saki asked them to, they obliged. He then asked Saki to not cause such a commotion next time.

After the guards left he found another girl standing behind them in their school's uniform. She had an awkward smile on her face. When he found out she was the other kid transferring in today, he asked a teacher to guide both of them to their respective classes. He could already feel the headache they were going to cause.

Suddenly, the guards started following them again. When he inquired they ensured that they would leave after delivering the gifts. He could only sigh. 'Why has she brought so many gifts with her?'

In Kouske's classroom.

"We have two new students joining us today. Make sure to get along with them."

"Please come in and introduce yourselves." the teacher said.

Then Saki and Rin along with the bodyguards entered the room. The teacher looked flabbergasted seeing the guards.

"Who are you guys?" the teacher asked.

"Please don't mind them. They will leave soon." Saki said. Then she proceeded with her introduction.

"Hello. My name is Saki Tenjoin. Nice to meet you all." Saki said as she bowed a little.

"I'm Rin Kujo." Rin did the same.

Then Saki started giving out gifts to everyone including the teacher.

"What's with the gift?" the teacher asked.

"Hohoho. It's my way of getting acquainted with everyone," she said.

She asked for the leftover gifts to be delivered to the other teachers as the guards left. Saki waved her hand seeing me and Rin just nodded towards me.

All the students were happy to receive new gifts. They started opening their gifts. However, the teacher asked everyone to sit down properly and wait for homeroom to finish so that they could open their gifts.

After homeroom was finished, the room was again filled with commotion. People started asking Saki and Rin about their families and stuff as they continued to open their respective gifts.

A circle was formed around Saki. Rin just replied that she comes from a normal family. Saki was polite but she still boasted about her family and heritage.

After school, we spoke a little with each other. Lavinia also chatted for a while. I introduced Asagi to them as my neighbor.

Then we went on our separate ways to home. Saki had invited us to go in her car but I refused saying walking would be better for us.

On our way, I spent some time with Irina. She was happily showing off her pendant. Seeing that Asagi brought out her pendant from somewhere and put it on her neck to show off to Irina. They were bantering like usual.

Lavinia was as cheerful as ever. She was also wearing her pendant. Seeing her not caring at all both of them felt like they lost somehow.

Issei and the other kids gathered around Lavinia to get to know her. Lavinia, like an innocent angel, spoke with even someone like Issei with a smile on her face.

After playing around for a while we decided to head back home as it was already getting dark.

After reaching home I started working on my summoning circle with Vritra. We(more like only she) were trying to boost its performance whenever we had time so that it could function like the devil's clan circle. Currently, it can only save up to 68% of someone's mana.

After working until late at night Lavinia and I had dinner together. She was also practicing her magic while I was working. She's progressing very fast.

That night when we went to bed I had a strange dream.

That night, as the embrace of darkness enveloped our world, I descended into a realm of dreams that defied the boundaries of reality. In the quiet solitude of slumber, I found myself abruptly transported to a haunting battlefield—a spectral theater of conflict where the very essence of the earth trembled beneath the weight of war.

The air was thick with the pungent scent of molten iron, a testament to the ferocity of the battle that unfolded above the vast expanse of a sea set ablaze. This infernal sea, once a tranquil expanse, now writhed with black flames, a malevolent dance that consumed everything in its path. The sinister flames bore the unmistakable mark of Vritra's presence, casting an eerie glow across the desolation below.

In this macabre spectacle, I witnessed the agonizing demise of beings that were neither wholly human nor purely otherworldly. Their anguished cries pierced the air as their forms, seemingly humane yet fundamentally different, succumbed to the relentless onslaught of the inferno. Auras, ethereal and divine, emanated from their beings, marking them as denizens of a realm beyond mortal comprehension.

But they were not the sole inhabitants of this nightmarish battleground. Serpentine dragons, majestic yet terrifying, soared through the tumultuous sky, engaged in a deadly dance of predation. Some descended upon the hapless creatures below, tearing into them with savage ferocity, while others became the hunted, their scales glistening in the ghastly illumination of the blackened sea.

The scene unfolded like a canvas of horror, a grotesque tapestry painted with strokes of chaos and destruction. The cacophony of death echoed relentlessly, a symphony of despair that reverberated through the very fabric of this surreal dreamscape.

As I surveyed the unfolding tragedy, I became acutely aware of a peculiar sensation—a dissociation from my corporeal form. It was not my body that traversed the battlefield; rather, it was the draconic form of Vritra, a colossal force of destruction moving with an inexorable purpose. Her scales glinted ominously in the hellish glow as she left a trail of devastation in her wake, indiscriminately claiming both friend and foe.

Abruptly, the heavens roared in defiance. Thunder, a tempestuous herald, reverberated across the celestial expanse. From the tumultuous sky descended a figure of divine countenance—a man with a buzz-cut hairstyle, adorned in greenish-brown hues, his eyes a mesmerizing lavender. A vermillion mark adorned his forehead, a symbol of his celestial station. Towering at a height of 6 feet 3 inches, he bore the weight of divine authority, clad in Buddha armor.

Instinctively, I recognized this imposing figure, the very embodiment of cosmic might and celestial sovereignty. He was none other than Indra, the king of gods and Lord of heaven in Hindu mythology. The atmosphere pulsated with the energy of storms and war, for he was also the Hindu god of war, storms, and rainfall.

As the dream unfolded, the boundaries between myth and reality blurred, and I stood witness to a celestial drama that transcended the confines of mortal understanding—a haunting vision etched in the canvas of night.
