I don't have time, I don't have time...

'I need to...I must find Elvenheims spatial coordinates. I must get an Elven Tear...For Samantha.'

No matter how many times I have to try, I need to succeed...Soon.

*Scrape!*

No matter how many times...I need to calculate it.

I know I'm not good at most other subjects. I never had a need to study Mana because I'm a dragon, And although my memory is not good. I am confident in one thing. That is Mathematics.

Mathematics is based on Understanding, not memorization...most of it anyways...I can do this.

I need to understand what these symbols mean, their purpose, and their use...I must.

These complex runes...I must find a way to decipher them and use them. Only then Can I Save my sister...Only then...

These runes...why are they so complex?

The chalk in my hand broke as I struggled to find the answer. The mana that I was supplying to it was not enough...I need more mana.

[ᚦ][ᛉ][ᚱ][ᛇ] Just these four...I must understand these four. they are the first runes...that must mean they are the simpler ones...

But it's impossible...JUST WHAT THE FUCK DO THEY MEAN?!

I sighed...realizing my anger will only be detrimental. I went over to the table to pick up another piece of chalk...only to realize Only a few of them are left.

This type of Chalk is special, made from the materials of an S-rank monster...I can't get enough of it. I need more but it's not on the market...at All. It helps in understanding these just a bit more because it came from a monster with the ability to teleport. This chalk is also able to handle my Astral Mana as well...quite well. I need more of it...but

I don't think I can hunt an S-rank monster as well.

I especially had Craftsmen at Twilight make this...And convincing Twilight to let me make use of them was a hassle...

I looked at my hands covered with Chalk Dust...and then at the room, I was occupying here...All the walls and even some parts of the floor were covered with the runic Symbols and my failed attempts at calculating the meaning they possessed.

Why am I so useless...Even when the life of my sister is in danger... I can't do anything.

I picked up another piece of chalk and walked to the area where I had left off. In one hand was the Spatial magic Guide Crystal...and in the other was the chalk. This crystal was my only hope. It gave me information about the existence of these runes...and as long as I input mana into it during the process of calculating them... I could understand them...somewhat.

*SCRAPE!* SCRAPE*

I will do it. No matter how many sleepless nights I must spend I WILL CALCULATE THE SPATIAL COORDINATES OF ELVENHEIM.

...I will do it...I must do it.

*Scrape!*Scrape!*

But no matter how much Mana I put in...It was never enough, even As I continuously regenerated it...It was never enough.

And now I was down to the last chalk...with no inkling as to the meaning of these runes...and no space in my room to think about.

Just as I had lost all hope...It appeared.

[Supreme Dragon Of Chaos Suleras says that he has fixed the Ame No Sakahoko.]

...huh?

I rubbed my tired eyes as I saw the prompt appear in front of me.

[The Spear Of Righteousness, Ame No Sakahoko has been deposited into your inventory.]

[Supreme dragon Of Suleras says that he has made adjustments to the spear.]

...Suleras...Tell me the meaning of these Spatial coordinates. Please... I haven't been able to contact you for a while I need help!

[Supreme dragon Of Suleras says that he cannot help you much as he is a dragon Of Chaos.]

"Please...! You should know something at least!"

I bargained with him...I pleaded with him but I knew it was all for Naught.

If he could have done this...If The restrictions placed on him because of his status were light. I would have asked him to give it to me...An elven tear. Or get me one...

I know this is false Hope...But why do I still cling to it so desperately?

[Supreme Dragon of Suleras says that he cannot say...unfortunately.]

...I expected it...and yet it still hit me so hard.

Do I really have nothing to go for? Will Destiny repeat itself again? I...don't want her to die. Even now I know she is in pain because of the lingering curse energy in her body but she doesn't show it. She always expresses a smile...

A child...does not need to be so mature. She does not need to hide that pain and express it as joy... I'm the big brother...let me fucking take that pain.

"Damn..it."

I fell to the ground...devastated. And I barely held back the urge to scream because of My frustration.

[Supreme Dragon of Suleras commends your ability. Supreme Dragons Of Suleras says that even most High Elves are unable to calculate Spatial coordinates so easily without any help. It is commendable that you have made it this far...]

"What does it fucking matter?"

I said...my head held low.

I'm weak. I wasn't able to Beat Ezra Fornum, Even though the quest reward was an Elven Tear.

I was restricted to just this form? That was an excuse... I know that. Even my White Draconian Form wouldn't be able to help me in that fight. And if only I wasn't so weak... Aranus could have exerted more power.

To this day...I envy the amount of Power he possessed...The visions I got from him, about him... were spectacular. The strength possessed by the Chaos Element combined with his Talent...was so...much.

It's a shame I can't use the chaos Element...or rather I risk getting found by the Abyss...

I can't believe it... I'm afraid.

Im afraid of the beings he fought against...The beings he so easily pummeled when all they need is to stare at me to kill me in an instant. To erase me from Reality itself. I can't even laugh at myself...

What do I possess this body for? I am not as qualified as the others...

I don't have Aranus's strength, his talent...his abilities.

I Dont Have that bitch James' wit and intelligence.

Out of them all...I'm the worst user of this body. Of Aranus's body.

I...am fucking pathetic.

[Supreme Dragon of Chaos Suleras says he can give you a hint.]

And as if it was a beacon of hope...of salvation. That prompt was all I could see. My entire vision was clouded by it. My hopes were ignited once again.

[Supreme Dragon Of Suleras says that there is a way. It is to ******** and to ***** then*****]

Huh...No please don't tell me that I can't comprehend it!

[Supreme Dragon of Suleras says Mana Capacity. Then repeat what you were doing.]

I had thought my hopes would be crushed once again. But Suleras found a way to surpass the system!

"So I just need to do that? Increase my mana capacity? And repeat the method of calculation?"

I questioned... but received no response back. Nothing.

"...so that was all you could say..."

I said, having come to the conclusion that Suleras paid a great price to give me a hint.

But it's enough. I know what I need to do now!

Increase My mana capacity. I do that by the mana breathing techniques. The [Whiff of Frost] will take too much time...which leaves me with only one option available.

[Supreme Ice Dragon's Breath *******]

A shiver went down my spine as I thought about it. I remembered that pain vividly. The pain that assaulted me when I used it the first time...that horrifying...horrendous pain.

*SLAP!*

I slapped myself to rid myself of these Delusions.

My sister is in more pain! I need to endure this and do everything I can to save her! Fuck her pain! Let it all come to me instead.

Without further ado, I hopped into the meditative stance and began using the mana Breathing Method.

[Supreme Ice Dragon's Breath******* has been activated.]

Knock! Knock!

Alice knocked on the door of Alan's room. But heard no answer.

"...Is he sleeping?"

Makes sense, she thought. He had been holed up in his room for quite a while. Maybe he was sleeping. But just to confirm. She knocked again.

Knock! Knock!

And still no response.

She sighed and then opened the door of the room...only to be utterly shocked at its state.

Various symbols, plus signs, equality signs, and other symbols she didnt recognize decorated the entire room. She couldn't see one place where they didnt exist!

This was surprising! She had come to ask Alan if he wanted to participate in the Rescue Squad of twilight To go help at the Mall...But then she saw him meditating.

'Although it wouldn't affect our performance if he isn't present. It would be nice if he did show up. But if he's doing something important. Then leave him be. Kazikato and the others are enough.'

She remembered what Maxwell said to her...before coming to the conclusion that it was best to leave Alan alone for now. She had heard that it was not good to disturb an Awakened when they were meditating. The entire room was chilly...so he was probably using a Breathing Method.

Therefore, she closed the door and left. Leaving him be. Although she still did wonder what those Symbols meant and why there were everywhere. She would just ask Alan when he was free.

*Thud*

She closed the door and left.
