Chapter 31. Mysterious Voice



Dragon King's Harem Chapter 31. Mysterious Voice
Since she felt better, I decided to take her for a walk.
"Do you mind accompanying me for a walk?" I said as I extended my hand to Sela.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Sela took my hand.
I released my hug from Evelina and we were just about to step our feet to take a walk around that garden which was located in the North East Palace. Suddenly I could feel the pain that pierced my chest. I flinched and stopped my steps, but I kept my composure. An announcement with a red box appeared in front of me.
[Warning !!! Someone has tried to interrupt your system!]
'What is this?' I thought. As I tried to find out about this from my memory, a majestic man's voice rang in my head.
'Who are you?'
'Telepathy?' I thought. Based on my memories, Legendary Beasts could communicate with Argod via telepathy but not accompanied by this kind of pain. Besides, I wasn't in the legendary beast's territory now.
Realizing something was wrong with me, Evelina and Sela also stopped their steps and turned to me.
"Your Majesty, is there something wrong?" asked Evelina worriedly. While Sela looked at me with the same gaze as her.
I was silent and didn't answer since I wasn't sure about my condition either. But one thing's for sure, I knew it was not because I was too tired or because of my physical condition, it was something else, that even Argod hadn't experienced it. Then the pain stabbed my chest again.
[Warning !!! Someone has tried to interrupt your system!]
And another man's voice came back into my head.
'Who are you?'
'I'm the one who should have asked you that! Who are you? What do you want? '
But the voice answered me with a sharp pain in my chest.
[Warning !!! Someone has tried to interrupt your system!]
I flinched again, my hands clenched into fists, enduring the pain. Even I couldn't maintain my calmness anymore.
'Who are you?' Another voice repeated the same question.
'Hey! Can you hear me? Answer me! ' I thought. But there was no answer.
'Looks like I can't communicate with that mysterious voice this way.'
"Your Majesty, what happened?" asked Sela in worry. Her hands gripped mine tightly, trying to support me if I fell.
While Evelina quickly used her Analyze skill to check me. Unfortunately, even though she knew I was in pain from my status, she also didn't know what caused it.
"I think I should go back to my room," I said as calmly as possible. I had to maintain my composure since I didn't want the other people to find out about this.
As I turned around and took a few steps, again, the pain pierced my chest again, making me have to stop my steps.
[Warning !!! Someone has tried to interrupt your system!]
And followed by the same question in a different voice. As if the voice was coming from a different man each time it sounded in my head.
'Who are you?'
'This shit! What does he want?!' I thought in anger.
Suddenly, Eir came over to us in a hurry. He bowed.
"Your Majesty, I have to report something important to you," he said breathlessly.
“Say it.” From Eir's face which looked pale and panicked, I could tell this was an urgent thing.
As soon as he got my permission, Eir immediately approached me and whispered into my ear.
"There is an unusual energy disturbance in the ancestral chamber, Your Majesty," he said in a low voice.
My eyes widened as I began to understand what was happening to me. That voice was the previous royal dragons' voices and the pain was their warning because they didn't recognize me as their descendant.
"Come with me!" I ordered as I stepped my feet towards the ancestral chamber. Eir and several guards swiftly followed me. Meanwhile, when Evelina and Sela wanted to follow me, I raised my hand, asking them to stop. Knowing this had to do with the Dragon Tribe's secrets, both of them stopped their steps and bowed.
I stepped my feet down the corridor, up the stairs to the centre of the palace as I endured the pain that occasionally stabbed my chest. I clenched my fists and kept my composure. Also totally ignored the announcement in front of me and the voice in my head.
"Your Majesty," the guards greeted and bowed to me as we arrived at a big black door without a handle with the huge Draconis Empire crest that filled one-third of it. I could feel strong mana energy from within. A great power had a great responsibility, those were the best words that describe the royal dragons' duties. The ancestral chamber was the final resting place for the royal dragons. Unlike other King Tribe, after a royal dragon died because of his age, his body would return to his original form, mana. Meanwhile, because of his strength and power, his soul would form huge energy that could destroy a large island in an instant. Therefore when a dragon king felt that he had reached his limit, he would spend his remaining time in this chamber as he waited for his time, without letting anyone accompany him, neither his son nor his wives. The goal was to trap that enormous energy in that chamber and turn it into energy to protect Dragon Cross City. That's why this energy disturbance was very dangerous because if this energy exploded, Dragon Cross City and its surroundings would turn into a large hole.
Then after the dragon king died, his power and legendary beasts would enter his son's body. At that time, his son would take his place as a dragon king. Although there were no witnesses about the previous Dragon King's death, this could not be faked because on the coronation day, the new king had to summon ten legendary beasts at the same time to prove that he was worthy for the throne. But even though all the other dragon tribes knew about this, they didn't know that the energy in that chamber actually still had a bit of the previous royal dragons' consciousness. They left their consciousness behind to make sure their successor did his job properly and did not abuse his power.
The pain stabbed my chest again. I gritted my teeth and clenched my fists to hold it as I tried to catch my breath. My sweat started dripping from my temples to the sides of my face.
[Warning !!! Someone has tried to interrupt your system!]
Accompanied by another voice.
'Who are you?'
I bit the tip of my index finger and pulled my left hand out of my glove.
'Mana weapon!'
A small knife formed in my right hand and I scratched my fingertip with it.
[You have taken 1 physical damage.]
Droplets of blood came out of the small wound. Then I stretched my hand forward, put my blood on the crest. Soon, the door in front of me opened by itself. Just like the secret storage on Argod's desk, this door could only be opened by the royal dragon's blood and more than that, this place could only be entered by the royal dragon lineage.
"Wait for me," I ordered as I cancelled my Mana Weapon and put on my glove again. I didn't know what would happen to me after this, so I had them stay here to summon Evelina if necessary, but I hoped I could get away with this problem unscathed.
"Yes, Your Majesty," replied Eir and the others. Eir could not hide his worry from his face as his eyes continued to look at the king who stood before him. This time it wasn't an exaggerated worry like before, because this room was only visited by a dying dragon king.
Secretly, I took a deep breath to get rid of my nervousness before stepping my feet to cross the transparent barrier in front of me and entered the room.
