All Chapters of The Dragon King's Curse : Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

The world forgot how to breathe. Aurelion stared upward. The white dragon’s silver eyes widened. The sapphire dragon looked as though she had seen the end of time itself. Even the Sleepless One had become completely still. Only one sentence remained in everyone’s minds. ”…I loved your first life.” Elara’s knees nearly gave out. Verath caught her instantly. His arm wrapped around her waist. She barely noticed. Her eyes never left the countless silver eyes within the fracture. “What did you say?” Noxaris remained silent for a long moment. “I loved your first life,” he repeated The words were gentle. Almost sorrowful. Elara shook her head. “No, that’s impossible.” Silver-violet magic flickered around her. “I’ve never met you.” The countless eyes blinked. “Not in this life.” Her breathing became uneven. “Who are you?” “I am the last of the First Ones.” The forest seemed to grow colder. The Last of the First Ones. The beings that had brought darkness. The bein

The words lingered in the air. “I still do.” No one moved. No one spoke. Even the wind had ceased. Elara stared at the countless silver eyes beyond the fracture. Her chest hurt. She had only seen fragments of the memory, mere moments of another life, yet the grief she felt was overwhelming. She remembered his smile. His kindness. The way he had wished her happiness despite his own heartbreak. The way he had walked away without asking for anything in return. And somehow that made his pain even harder to bear. A tear slipped down her cheek. The silver eyes blinked. Then came Noxaris’s soft voice. “You cry for me.” She quickly wiped her face. “I…” But she couldn’t finish. Because she didn’t know why she was crying. She had never met him. Not truly. Yet her heart ached as though she had lost someone precious. The countless eyes watched her. “You always did that.” She frowned. “What?” A long pause followed. Then: “You cried whenever I was hurt.” Her breath c

The smile stretched across the broken sky. It was too large. Too wrong. Too impossible. The stars nearest it disappeared. Gone. Erased. As though they had never existed. Then came the voice. Ancient. Infinite. THEN I SHALL END ALL THREE OF YOU TOGETHER THIS TIME. The world trembled. Elara’s blood turned cold. All three? The black eye watched them. Watching her. Watching Verath. Watching Noxaris. As if it had been searching for them. Waiting. Across eternity. Then Noxaris moved. Silver light exploded from the fracture. The countless eyes narrowed. For the first time since awakening, the Last of the First Ones radiated pure fury. “You remember us.” The black eye blinked. I REMEMBER EVERYTHING. A shiver ran through every dragon. Aurelion’s golden flames erupted. His enormous wings spread across the heavens. “You destroyed their world.” The black eye turned YES. No shame. No regret. Simply a fact. Aurelion’s eyes hardened. “Why?” The eye blinked.

Snap. Silence. Nothing happened. The silver light vanished. The wind returned. The stars remained where they were. For one strange, impossible second, everything appeared normal. Then the black eye blinked. And froze. The cracks in the sky stopped spreading. The darkness seeping through them halted. Even the stars that had been vanishing remained in place. The End had stopped. The entire world seemed to exhale. Then a sound emerged. Crack. A tiny crack appeared in the black eye. Everyone froze. Another crack appeared. Then another. The black eye widened. It looked afraid. IMPOSSIBLE. Noxaris lowered his hand. Silver light still danced around his fingertips. His expression was calm. “You once told me that all things end.” Silence. He smiled faintly. “I listened.” Another crack appeared across the black eye. WHAT HAVE YOU DONE? “I gave you one.” Nobody understood. Not even Aurelion. The black eye trembled. Noxaris’s silver eyes glowed brighter. “You

The question lingered in the air. The black eye remained fixed on them. Silver petals continued drifting through the forest. No one spoke. No one moved. Then Noxaris laughed softly. The sound was quiet, almost disbelieving. The black eye turned toward him. YOU FIND THIS AMUSING? Noxaris shook his head. “No.” His silver eyes remained on Verath and Elara. “I just realized something.” “I spent an eternity searching for an answer.” A silver petal landed in his hand. He stared at it. “And it was always this simple.” The black eye narrowed. THEN ANSWER MY QUESTION.. Noxaris looked up. “Because they are my home.” The entire forest fell silent. Even Verath and Elara stared at him. A sad smile appeared on his face. “You asked why we keep finding one another.” He looked at them again. “Because home is not a place, it’s people.” The words settled over the clearing. Elara felt her chest tighten. Memories surfaced. A younger Noxaris is laughing. Verath is trying to co
