First Legendary Dragon: Starting With The Limitless System novel Chapter 300

Chapter 300: RealmExplorersClub.exe Has Crashed

Arya, Emilia, Elias, and Nyss had already settled around the table, each giving warm smiles and nods as Felira and Kale joined them.

The atmosphere quickly grew lively and cheerful, filled with laughter and excited conversation as the friends exchanged updates on their recent experiences, training progress, and future plans.

Yet, amidst the relaxed and lively chatter, Orion’s expression gradually became more serious, an unspoken weight settling quietly upon his heart.

His dual-colored eyes subtly dimmed with quiet contemplation, drawing the immediate attention of his friends, who slowly ceased their conversations and turned toward him.

Finally, Orion spoke, his voice gentle yet firm, drawing everyone’s full attention. "Everyone, there’s something very important I need to tell you all."

Immediately, the laughter and cheerful chatter around the table quieted completely. Every gaze fixed intently upon Orion, filled with curiosity, concern, and anticipation.

Taking a deep breath, Orion began recounting carefully and methodically all the significant events of that day—the kidnapping attempt, the dangerous battles, and his grave injuries.

He described every crucial detail, his voice calm yet tinged with solemnity, stopping just short of revealing his most important secret.

The group listened intently, their expressions shifting through disbelief, shock, anger, and admiration, reacting openly and honestly to Orion’s experiences.

As he concluded his recount, a heavy silence fell upon the group. Each friend was clearly processing Orion’s words, absorbing the gravity of the events he’d endured.

Finally, Orion stood from his seat, taking another deep breath. His gaze slowly moved across his friends’ faces, witnessing their expectant yet supportive expressions.

Quietly, yet with resolute determination, he revealed softly, "There’s one more crucial thing I need to tell you. Something I’ve kept hidden until now."

He paused briefly, steeling himself inwardly before continuing firmly, "I’m not entirely human. I’m a Draconian—a fusion of three powerful legacies: True Fire Dragon, True Thunder Dragon, and Human."

As he finished his revelation, Orion’s body gradually began transforming right before their astonished eyes.

His muscular frame expanded, gaining formidable bulk and raw, primal strength. Twin horns, sharp and imposing, emerged gracefully from the sides of his forehead, curving elegantly upward.

His previously smooth skin rapidly became covered with resilient, magma-red scales, shining vividly like molten lava in the gentle sunlight.

His eyes shifted dramatically from dual-colored tranquility to intense, fierce crimson, blazing brightly with an ancient, fiery power.

Fiery energy subtly emanated from his body, waves of heat pulsing gently outward, causing those seated nearby to instinctively shift backward in awe.

The vibrant energy that had filled their earlier conversation abruptly dissipated, replaced by a stillness filled with disbelief.

Arya’s violet eyes widened in shock, her fingers frozen mid-motion as she stood abruptly. Emilia had risen as well, one hand unconsciously gripping Arya’s arm, her usually composed demeanor now shaken visibly.

Elias nearly stumbled from his seat, his lively expression wiped away entirely, replaced by a look of pure astonishment. "You were... a Dragon from the start?!" His voice shook slightly, betraying his struggle to process the startling revelation. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Orion calmly nodded his head, maintaining a composed and confident posture even in his draconic state. Elias sank slowly back into his chair, muttering incredulously, "No wonder you have such absurd talent."

Finally, the tension eased enough for the friends to slump back into their chairs, visibly overwhelmed by the profound revelation.

Felira hesitantly broke the lingering silence, her voice gentle yet anxious, "What about the academy, Orion? Does the Dean or anyone else know about your lineage?"

Orion shook his head slowly, brows furrowing thoughtfully. "I don’t know exactly, Felira. From what I have heard about the Dean, she is very powerful, far beyond anything I can comprehend right now. During my entrance test, she might have sensed or glimpsed something unusual. However, she hasn’t confronted me about it directly, so I can’t be certain."

Felira nodded slowly, her expression thoughtful but relieved by Orion’s cautious reasoning. Elias finally released a long-held breath, his characteristic smile gradually returning despite the lingering shock. "Well, if the Dean hasn’t come after you yet, perhaps you’re in the clear for now. Let’s hope she remains on your side."

Nyss quietly nodded her agreement, speaking softly but clearly, "If the Dean truly sensed something, she likely sees no immediate threat. Otherwise, she would’ve acted already. Let’s trust her silence for now."

Arya managed a faint, reassuring smile, her initial shock finally subsiding into thoughtful acceptance. "Whatever happens, Brother Orion, we’ll stand beside you. Dragon or human, it doesn’t matter, you’re still our friend."

Emilia warmly added her support, her graceful demeanor returning as she spoke gently, "Exactly. What matters is who you are, not what you are."

Elias lightly chuckled and said, "Hehe, with all these Noble Houses and the Royal House supporting you, I don’t think you’ll have much problem with the academy, Orion."

Orion smiled softly, his heart filling with relief at his friends’ unwavering support. After a few moments of comfortable silence, he finally straightened in his chair, his eyes glinting with renewed determination and energy.

"Alright, enough chatting and shocking revelations for now," Orion declared lightly, eliciting quiet chuckles around the table. "We’ve gathered here to train, so let’s make the most of these next few days. Afterward, we’ll meet up with Sylvia to finalize our plans about where to explore first."
