Zion gently brushed the blade as he explained. "It was once wielded by Emperor Reginald Eternal. Before him, it belonged to Emperor Caspian Arcana…"
Lucian blinked.
Then blinked again.
The names echoed inside his head.
Figures that existed only inside fairy tales.
"You mean those emperors? The legendary rulers?"
Zion nodded, "It was given to my Big Sister by Emperor Reginald Eternal's spirit. My Big Sister gave it to me as it complements my constitution."
Lucian stared.
For several moments, he genuinely didn't know how to react.
His rational mind immediately rejected the explanation.
Impossible.
Ridiculous.
Absurd.
Yet after witnessing the light dragon, dismissing the claim entirely became difficult.
Eventually, he shook his head.
"No."
He forced himself to calm down, thinking. "The names were probably used by Kiara to hide the weapon's true origins."
That explanation felt safer.
Far safer.
