I Received System to Become Dragonborn

Chapter 46 Solution



As soon as they got back to the palace, the Elves immediately took Anna underground. The path leading underground was dim and lit only by a few torches lining the walls.

The air below was also humid and feels worse than above.

Erend, Billy, and Lt. Boartusk who had entered the palace underground for the first time felt a strange sensation as soon as they were there.

The Elves took Anna and put her in a cell. The bars of this cell is made of what appears to be wood. Not of iron like they used to see in their world.

But before any of the three of them asked if these bars were strong enough to hold a person, they saw several prisoners huddled in the cells.

They saw a creature with pale green skin whose body was so large it almost resembled a giant, a brown-skinned creature with horns on its head, and also an animal that was probably a bear.

All the creatures that were trapped in every cell had a massive body size that should be enough to smash the wooden bars into pieces. But they didn't. That must indicate something.

That meant the bars that seemed to be made of wood were enough to make them give up any hope of escaping. Seeing that Erend, Billy, and Lt.Boartusk were silent because they could draw their own conclusions.

They put Anna into one of the cells at the far end. Anna was thrown down with a thud. Then they untied the rope that tied her.

"Tell me how she will be useful to take the key back?" Aerchon wasted no time asking Erend, Billy, and Lt.Boartusk.

The three of them exchanged glances. Then Lt.Boartusk said. "Let us ask her first."

"You have to hurry," Aerchon said. "If you don't get the answer by the time the sun rises tomorrow, I'll kill her."

After that Aerchon walked out with the Elves who brought Anna here.

Erend, Billy, and Lt.Boartusk walked into Anna's cell.

"You've heard, haven't you? You'll be dead in less than twenty-four hours," Lt.Boartusk said.

Anna is silent. Her face was flat and unreadable. It made them both sigh.

"You have to cooperate, Anna. I don't know what your real name is," Lt.Boartusk said. "If you don't cooperate with us, you will die."

"How did you guys get here?" Instead of answering their questions, Anna asked back.

"That's a long story," Lt.Boartusk said. "Do you want to cooperate in clearing our names or not? Otherwise, we will let you die here."

Anna's lips curved slightly. "I think you guys should make me tell you how to get the crystal key back."

"That's true. But even if you say how to get the key again, but you don't want to clear our names, it won't do any good," Lt.Boartusk said.

"Why? I know how to get the key," Anna said calmly.

"We're afraid we'll have to say otherwise. Even if you know we'll say you don't know anything and let them kill you tomorrow," Lt.Boartusk said.

Anna's face suddenly turned stiff. She finally realized that she was not in a position to oppose them.

The fact that they were able to escape to this world and live with the Elves in their palace indicated that they had a special relationship with the Elves.

Anna didn't know how that was possible. But that's what's happening right now.

Then, Anna remembered how Steve had jumped at the Portal without a second thought. Leaving them to be slaughtered by the Elves.

Now it looks like there are no other options left.

"How do I know they won't kill me once they get the information?" Anna asked.

Erend, Billy, and Lt.Boartusk looked at each other for a few seconds. They naturally had no way of ensuring Anna's safety.

But if they said that now Anna wouldn't be willing to give them anything to clear their names.

"We'll talk to the Elf Prince," Lt.Boartusk said calmly.

"Yeah, don't worry," Billy added with a smile.

Anna frowned. "You can talk to the Elf Prince?!" Anna looked surprised. Of course, she didn't know anything.

"Of course!" This time it was Erend who said confidently. "We're like friends."

Anna stared at them for a few moments before she moved her hand into the back pocket of her pants.

"Hey!" Erend warned.

"Don't worry." Anna spread her arms low. "I not taking a weapon. I'm not stupid."

Then Anna started to move slowly to take something out of her back pocket. A few moments later she took out a black cell phone.

"What's that?" Lt.Boartusk asked.

"The data you need," Anna replied.

Then Anna pressed something on the phone screen to enter the password. Lt.Boartusk immediately took the cell phone from Anna's hand after she finished unlocking the password.

Lt.Boartusk, Erend, and Billy huddled together to look at the cell phone. After a few minutes of looking at what was inside the cell phone, the three of them smiled in satisfaction.

"I think this is enough," Lt.Boartusk said.

"Hurry up and tell the Elves that I have a way to get the key back. But of course, they have to help," Anna said.

"Ah, of course. Wait here," Lt.Boartusk said.

The three of them left Anna in the cell and went upstairs. The smiles on their faces signaled a clear sense of relief.

As soon as they entered their room, they immediately keep the cell phone containing the important data.

Then Erend remembered that he had not done the Daily Quest today.

"Hey, I have to go," Erend said.

"Where are you going?" Lt.Boartusk asked.

"You know... I have to get stronger to face the possibilities in the future," Erend said.

"So you have to do some kind of exercise?" Billy asked.

"Well, sort of." A portal opened in front of Erend.

Billy and Lt.Boartusk are surprised to see Erend being able to create his own Portal.

"I'll explain later." Erend entered the Portal. Soon the Portal closed.

"Whatever." Billy chose not to think too much about it.
