The World of Sword and Dragon Volume 1 Prologue

Prologue: Demonic Dragon Declaration

『Next is the declaration of war towards the entire world by the demonic dragons.』

The time is during Christmas Eve.

For the first time in history, the communication signals of the entire world are hijacked. The message begins with this sentence.

『This announcement is broadcast by borrowing the authorities of the nations, through various media like television and radio. Please listen to it, people of the world. And all media channels please repeat this announcement. 』

The first thing that caught everyone's attention is her long and beautiful silver hair and her clear blue eyes.

From the aesthetic view of a Japanese, calling her a 『Beautiful Girl』 is not excessive. Her beautiful features and her emotionless expression, shows an unworldly atmosphere.

At first glance, because of the elegance she exudes, most people will think that she is a princess of some country, or a daughter from a wealthy family. The reason for this feeling is probably due to her wearing a luxurious customized military uniform.

『As I have said earlier, good evening everybody Ahrian‖D‖Hakua. My comrades calls me Ahri or Demonic Princess. I am currently the leader of the Demonic Dragon coup 『Six Imperial Demonic Dragons』. Everyone, please take a moment to listen to what I am about to say.』

The self-proclaimed Demonic Dragon girl, Ahrian.

Extremely polite, indifferent and smooth with words. As though she is acting based on a script., she continues to say while facing the camera:

『Well, no matter in which countries, the one who is seen as an image of terror, the strongest mythical creature existing in the legends, that is ……『Dragon』.

Actually these so-called legends that 『Dragon』appears in,are the records left by the people of the past who see us 『Demonic Dragons』as 『The Most Horrible Creatures』.

You who is currently watching this broadcast should be able to understand that my current look is as you see, extremely normal. Even the body functions is the same as normal people. We, demonic dragons, on the outside is not that much different from humans.

Even so, I am not 『Human』 but a demonic dragon. 』

The camera started to capture close-ups of Ahri.

Beginning from her facial features, the camera slowly move down.

Comparing to normal girl, her chest is considered big, along with a firm waistline, and snow white thighs can be seen extending out from her skirt. Just by her figure, the audience could catch a glimpse of her femininity.

『Fishes are born to swim, and birds are born to fly. We, demonic dragons, are born to trample, destroy and shock the world. In short it is to make the world panic, and fear having us as enemies.

We exists to bring fear and despair to people. To disturb their hearts and to wage war seems to work as well.』

The camera began to close up at Ahrian's eyes.

The eyes that does not hold any emotions. It is a sight that does not make one feel excited, nervous or happy.

『——Though we are born from normal human mothers, but we are born with the power of demonic dragons. Some, because of this power, are hated by their parents and eventually stepping into a sad life, becoming erratic.」

Saying until here, Ahrian silently closed her eyes.

Until now, she who has never even blinked, showed an expression for the first time.

『But that is the wrong caused by society so I do not really care. If some government organizations see this announcement, please pay more attention to child persecution in your country.』

In her speech, a rare smile appeared with the notation of causing sarcasm.

The initially hard to understand speech, because of this made the audience unconsciously gave a bitter smile, bringing them closer.

This is also a skill used in speeches.

『Okay, back to topic, as demonic dragons, our aim is to let words 『Horrible Creatures』which represents fear and despair be known throughout the world. Afterwards, whether the humanity will worship or destroy us, will be another matter. I will not mention it here. If you are not sure or clear,as long as you have a rough understanding that the opposite of a 『playful animal』is a 『scary threat』 and what type of people we are and what we do, that is enough. 』

From the beginning to the end, Ahrian insisted that she and the other demonic dragon members are 『non-humans』.

『Perhaps our actions will be seen as an announcement from an terrorist organization but we do not have any special demands so the governments can rest assured. By doing so, all we wanted is to demonstrate our strength and reason for our existence to the world.
——Next, everyone please look at this scene.』

The screen behind Ahrian began to show a video after she stepped aside. It showed an unknown country…… the streets are filled with European style buildings. At the bottom right of the video, the word 『LIVE!』 is shown indicating that it is currently happening now.

『This is a certain city of a certain country. The citizens have already been evacuated by the military a few days ago. And now, this place will be——』

At this moment, the ground began to whine as through an earthquake is occurring —— the streets in the video began to shake. Next, a gigantic ball-like object appeared in the skies. It seems as though it is a large water ball.

『destroyed by us, 『Six Imperial Demonic Dragons』personally.』

Instantly, along with violent shaking, several buildings began to collapse and fire pillars could be seen everywhere on the streets while the water ball in the skies slowly descends——

『This is the power of demonic dragons.』

Sha———— various sounds of destruction are exploded and mixed together and at the same time, the scene became very chaotic.

Finally, before all the buildings are about to turn into rubble and the streets completely destroyed,

Like this—— snapped, the screen suddenly turned black.

『Seems that the camera is spoil, so we will change to another camera.』

While Ahrian is calmly explaining, the video feed appeared again.

This time, the filming location is a distance away from the previous one. As it is about to switch to a overlooking view, the video showed a figure that the people has never seen before.

『These are my partners, demonic dragons.』

At the middle of the completely destroyed and still dusty streets, appeared 3 gigantic figures, different from any of the known creatures on Earth.

Among them the particular conspicuous features which are…… a long neck, a pyramidal-shaped body and wings formed by a few films which reminds people of bats.

If one must give an example to describe them, it would be dinosaurs. But their looks are different from the dinosaurs that various countries dug out.

That's right! Only these sort of creature is worthy of being called 「dragon」.

Demonic beasts, monsters, evil gods, their image is different in every country but their similarity is that when they appear, it is always accompanied by large destruction. Such an existence is standing right there.

『Now, I guess everyone has more or less understood what we, demonic dragons are. Even the human army cannot compete with us demonic dragons. Because the guns and weapons that normal human uses, have no effect on our scales or actions. There has already been a few attacks by various countries on our base but yet we are completely unharmed. With respect to this, I guess the government in the northern Europe should be very clear on it. In addition, at this stage we do not have intentions of harming anyone so please rest assured.』

The scene behind her began to change, showing the defeated look of a certain country's army. With the result 『several injured, zero deaths』showing on the screen,this also means that they showed mercy, only repelling the army rather than killing them.

『Going against us means going against 『legends』. It means that to fight with us, you must reach the level of a legend first. Of course, such legends also exist.

——In this world, there is a extremely confidential secret that is protected…… Actually that are weapons that can defeat us, demonic dragons. They are called 『Sacred Swords』.

Since the past, we, the demonic dragons, and the sacred swords has fought many battles throughout the entire world.

But now, owners of the sacred swords who used to hunt us in secret, let us battle openly in front of the world. Members of the world, we, the demonic dragons may happen at any time and anywhere. Please enjoy this taste of fear and despair. Sorry for troubling everyone. 』

Saying until here, Ahrian, with a extremely serious expression, carefully bowed.

For those who are watching this video, as the people in the world starts to despair,doing such a bow,other than letting them 『feel fear』, there is no other meaning.

『Anyway we have already received reports that a few demonic dragons and sacred swords are present in a certain city,located in 『Mikage Development City』 in Japan. First we will head over that city. While searching for comrades and testing the enemies, and continuing terrorism and promoting despair.』

The scene behind her began to show a modern city which is 『Mikage Development City』. It is a latest-built city on an island.

『Well, this is what we wanted to say.』

With that city as background, Ahrian opened her arms.

『Now 『The World of Sword and Dragon』officially begins.』
