Dragon Master: The SSS-Ranked School Belle Asked Me To Contract Her

The moment Veer put the Dark Metal Slate on the Iron Throne, something shook in the Floating Island. It trembled, sending earthquakes throughout the Island as the beings living on it panicked.

Under his astonished eyes, the land before Veer began to crack. At first, there were only a few web-like cracks due to the earthquake, but soon, the waves escalated and more cracks began to form.

Slowly, but surely, the cracks began to grow wider as wind howled around them. The nature seemed to have taken an aggressive form as it destroyed everything including itself.

"No way!!"

Veer muttered in shock, as he watched the floating island slowly fall apart. There was no denying it, the Island was breaking apart and in no time, it would collapse.

He knew that the floating island would drop on the ground but he never expected it to break first. It meant that every being living on it would fall from an unimaginable height, including the Aethryms' corpses.

'Damn it!'

But there was nothing he could do. He planned to have a proper funeral for the Aethryms once he had solved everything, but he wouldn't be even able to find their corpses.

In just over a minute, they could see the Floating Island's edges getting closer. It broke and broke until the mountains also collapsed under their own weight. As far as they could see, it was all just a beautiful sky and a few islands floating in the distance.

The same fate awaited them too.

After the mountains, the town was assaulted by nature as the thousand-year-old ruins broke down even further and began to drop in the abyss.

Finally, the only thing left was a small platform on which the Iron Throne was erected. Nature's attack also stopped once it touched the platform, leaving it unscathed.

Veer and his group just stood there, dumbfounded by the degree of events they had just witnessed. A whole Island housing monsters they couldn't even imagine defeating just collapsed into the abyss below.

They could also finally see what the land was, even though it wasn't clear because of all the debris of the Floating Island falling down. It was dark, like an endless abyss.

But if Veer really had to compare it to something, it would be the night sky, filled with beautiful stars that looked so small from a distance. Just like that night sky, the land below them was also filled with numerous small flashes of light, making it look mesmerizing.

"Sky below..."

Veer sucked in a cold breath, as his eyes shone with an excited glint. He knew better than to fall for the mesmerizing sight, but the curiosity to go near them was also great.

He smiled and thought, 'Guess I have another reason to go down.'@@novelbin@@

Turning around, he found others having the same surprised expression as him. He smiled and said, "Let's see what we can do around this. Liz, do you have any idea?"

They were now stuck on this platform which was just floating in the sky with no connections whatsoever. None of them knew how to fly and any other methods would drain their Mana too quickly.

Elizabeth nodded and looked at the Iron Throne closely. After inspecting it for a while, she smiled and said, "I sense a lot of Rune Formation inside it. It's special."

"Yes, even this Iron isn't a normal iron," Aurora said, as she inspected the Iron spikes. "It's Magnetised Iron, an enchanted Iron which only a Great Stage Magical Creature. However, to get so much of it... just what the hell happened in Dark Era?"

Then, she touched the Dark Metal Slate and closed her eyes, inspecting the insides of the Iron Throne closely. After lingering for a while, she said, "It's complicated but there are a few Runes I recognise. Let me test them."

"You know, if we fall from here..." Elizabeth swallowed back her saliva as she turned to look at the abyss. That scared her even more as she clutched the Iron Spikes. "Please be careful."

"Hehe, I can only experiment, so I just hope I find the right one," Aurora chuckled and then poured her Mana into the Iron Throne.

For a few moments, nothing happened, making Aurora frown in response. She clicked her tongue, "Tsk, Hubby, sit on the throne."

Although a little confused, Veer did as he was told after making Elara unconscious. She was getting in the way and he was also afraid that she would accidentally drop herself in the abyss. He also ordered Rock to look after her.

Sitting on the throne, he asked, "So, what do I have to do?"

"Just pour a little Mana into it and try to think of driving a car," Aurora said. "We'll need to drive it like a hovering car and get it on another Floating Island. I'll handle the rest."

"They really had made sure of everything, huh," Veer muttered, as he poured his Mana inside the Iron Throne.

After a full minute of nothing, he finally felt a strange connection with the platform and its surroundings. It was a weird feeling as the air flow was blocked by an invisible barrier.

"Alright, make it fast, as I can't control it for long."

Hearing Aurora, Veer nodded and directed his attention towards a floating island closest to them. It was still far away from them, but they could at least make out its shape roughly.

It was strangely shaped in a perfect square, with a sharp edge and perfect right angles. Focusing all of his attention on it, Veer tried to imagine the platform as his hovering car.

Imagination was everything in this world and it showed here. With no problems, Veer was able to drive the platform like a car.

It moved from its suspension state and shot towards the Floating Island in the distance. In just over a second, it reached an insane speed that Veer almost lost control over it.

Now, he understood why the invisible barrier was needed. As he once again focused his attention on the distant island, he heard a groan behind him.

"Fuck! This is tougher than I thought."

"Endure it!"

Veer commanded, as he narrowed his eyes and increased the speed. It placed a strain on his mental health and he knew the same was true for Aurora, but they needed to reach the island before they collapsed from exhaustion.

One mishap and they would drop themselves in the abyss and there wasn't a single chance of their survival from such a height. Not to mention the beings they would probably meet down there.

"Hubby! You better compensate me for this!" Explore more at My Virtual Library Empire

Veer chuckled and said, "Yeah, yeah!"

Others could only stand there and hope that they would reach the Island alive. There was nothing they could do anyway. Of course, Rain and Rock didn't have any worries as they trusted Veer.

Gradually, the Floating Island became properly visible and they could finally see what it was. It was lower in altitude than the previous Floating Island they were on, so they could see its terrain properly.

It was mostly covered in endless plains of evergreen forest, with a few mountains and hills obscuring the view. As far as eyes could see, only a thick green blanket covered the island with a few vast rivers burrowing through it.

Knowing that their destination was probably close to the centre, they tried to concentrate there. Sadly, it was for naught as a thick gray mist covered the area.

"Passengers! Hold your seats tightly and be sure you have tightened your seat belt. Why this announcement, you may ask? Why, of course, because we're going to crash!"

Hearing Aurora's cheerful voice behind him, Veer turned speechless. But he didn't get the time to say anything as he lost control over the platform. No matter how much he tried, he couldn't.

Sighing, he threw his hands back and shouted, "Help! We're going to crash!"

Because of their nonsensical behaviour, what could have been a tension-filled atmosphere turned into a chill atmosphere as everyone just awaited their crash.

Except for Elizabeth who jumped and landed on Veer's lap, hugging him tightly, "P-Please save me! I don't want to die! Please!"

"Ahem! Miss Seer, we'll be fine, so can you get off me?" Veer asked as his lips twitched, feeling two mounds against his chest. If it wasn't because of the platform being small, he would have thrown her out.

"Oye!!" Aurora's eyes turned cold as she raised her hand in the air. "Do you perhaps see your death at my hands?"

Before they could fight, the platform crashed into a small hill, throwing them all out of it. Fortunately, the invisible barrier had accompanied them till the crash so they weren't injured.

Veer caught a tree branch with one hand, stopping his descent. He heaved a sigh of relief, but then felt a crushing weight pulling him down.

Speechless, he looked down and found Elizabeth hugging his legs like a koala. Her eyes closed, as she refused to look down.

"What a drag!"
