The Dragon World was a realm of breathtaking grandeur, where mountains pierced the heavens and vast ins stretched out endlessly, filled with crystallinekes and rivers of moltenva. The skies were vast, a rich tapestry of blues and purples interwoven with ribbons of gold. Massive clouds floatedzily, shimmering with the reflective scales of dragons as they glided through the air.


    Below, towering trees with trunks thicker than castle walls reached upwards like great emerald pirs, their canopies providing shelter and shade for the inhabitants of this magnificent world.


    Dragons of all sizes and colors roamed thend. A scarlet-scaled dragon with wings spanning over a hundred meters soared through the skies, its deep, booming roar echoing like thunder. Its powerful wings stirred the winds, causing trees to sway and rivers to ripple.


    On the ground, a smaller, jade-green dragony basking in the sun, its eyes half-closed in contentment as it stretched its sinuous body across a rocky outcrop. Its scales shimmered like gemstones, catching the light and reflecting a spectrum of green hues.


    A cluster of young dragons, barely the size of horses, yed nearby, chasing each other with joyous shrieks. Their scales—bright golds, blues, and silvers—shed in the sunlight as they pounced and rolled over each other. Further in the distance, a colossal dragon with midnight-ck scales stood sentinel on a high cliff, its gaze sweeping thend below with a fierce, protective intensity.


    Each breath it took expelled a plume of smoke, curling into the air like a warning to any who dared trespass on its territory.


    This was the Dragon World, and of awe-inspiring beauty and primal power, where the air itself seemed to hum with magic, and where each dragon carried within them the strength to shape the world around them.


    But this paradise was about to be a battleground.


    ---


    In a secluded grove, hidden deep within a forest of massive, ancient trees, Nyx, Lilith, and the Holy Phoenix stood together. Unlike her small white phoenix form, the Holy Phoenix was now in her human guise, a form that radiated an ethereal, otherworldly beauty.


    She appeared as a woman of unparalleled grace and elegance, her presencemanding attention. Long, flowing hair the color of molten gold cascaded down her back in delicate waves, reaching her waist. Each strand shimmered as if lit from within by a soft, golden glow. Her eyes were a mesmerizing shade of amber,rge and almond-shaped.


    She wore a simple yet exquisite white dress that clung to her form, entuating her lithe figure. The dress was made from a fabric so fine it seemed almost ethereal, adorned with intricate golden embroidery that formed patterns of mes and feathers along the hem and sleeves.


    The dress flowed gently around her as she moved, giving her the appearance of floating above the ground. A delicate golden sash was tied at her waist, its ends trailing behind her like ribbons of light. The neckline of the dress dipped slightly, revealing the faint, glowing mark of a phoenix. Her bare feet touched the grass softly.


    Despite her breathtaking beauty, there was a hint of mncholy in her gaze as she looked around the grove. Her eyes flicked over the faces of Nyx and Lilith, lingering on Lilith with a strange mix of resignation and defiance.


    "What do you want from me?" the Holy Phoenix Iris in her human form, asked softly.


    "Isn''t it obvious?" Lilith said, a smile curling at her lips as she examined Iris from head to toe. "We want you to be useful, Phoenix."


    Nyx remained silent, her gaze focused on the northern horizon, as if searching for something beyond the grove. Finally, she turned back to face Iris, her expression unreadable.


    "It''s time to test your loyalty, Iris," Nyx said calmly, her voice carrying a weight that made Iris shiver despite herself. "There''s a task I have for you… and for Lilith."


    Nyx''s gaze shifted between Iris and Lilith.


    "I want the two of you to kill every dragon on this ind," Nyx said, her tone t and upromising. The weight of hermand settled over them like a death sentence.


    Iris took a step back, her eyes widening. "Kill… everyone?" she repeated, her voice barely a whisper. "Why would you do such a thing?"


    Lilith, too, tilted her head, curiosity gleaming in her glowing eyes. "Why go through all that trouble?" she asked with a casual shrug. "We''re here to take the Ancient Ice Dragon, aren''t we? Why not just grab it and leave?"


    Nyx''s gaze hardened. "Dragons are creatures that grow stronger through emotions. Anger, sorrow, hatred—these fuel their strength. If we take the Ancient Ice Dragon and leave the others alive, they''ll only be more powerful in their rage and grief. They''ll pursue us relentlessly, no matter where we go. Killing just one dragon is enough to incite their entire race."


    Lilith raised an eyebrow. "So, what you''re saying is… it''s all or nothing?" She let out a low, mockingugh. "How troublesome. But if that''s the case, wouldn''t it be better to leave some of them alive to spread fear? A kingdom''s worth of terrified dragons would—"


    "No," Nyx interrupted, her voice as cold and unyielding as ice. "Dragons don''t spread fear. They spread vengeance. If even a single one survives, they''ll grow stronger with every loss. If we leave now, we''ll have to face them at their peak. And trust me, that''s not a fight we want."


    Iris clenched her fists, her gaze dropping to the ground. She understood now. The ferocity of dragons was unmatched, their wrath unending. To cross them was to invite a death that even immortals feared.


    "That''s why we kill them all," Nyx continued, her tone matter-of-fact. "Before they grow too strong to handle."


    A tense silence fell over the grove. Lilith''s smile widened, a hint of excitement lighting up her eyes. "Well, that sounds like fun," she murmured. "Let''s start with the strongest one, shall we?"


    Nyx inclined her head slightly. "The Dragon King resides at the heart of this ind. His strength surpasses that of all other dragons here. Kill him, and the rest will fall."


    Lilith''s smile turned savage. "I''ll handle him," she said, her tone dripping with anticipation.


    Without another word, Lilith took to the sky, her wings unfolding behind her in a burst of shadowy energy. She soared high above the trees, her gaze locked onto a distant mountain peak that towered above the ind. The very air crackled with power as she flew, her aura dark and menacing.


    The Dragon King was waiting.


    He stood at the top of the mountain, a massive figure of shimmering silver scales and piercing blue eyes that glowed like twin stars. His wings, each one asrge as a castle wall, were folded against his back, and his gaze was fixed on Lilith as she approached.


    "You dare enter my domain, fairy?" the Dragon King rumbled, his voice a deep, resonant growl that seemed to shake the very earth. "What is it you seek?"


    Lilith hovered before him, her lips curling into a smirk. "Your death," she replied simply.


    The Dragon King''s eyes narrowed, and a low, threatening growl escaped his throat. "Arrogant creature. Do you think you can defeat me so easily?"


    Lilith''s smile widened. "Why don''t we find out?"


    In a blur of motion, the two shed, the impact of their collision sending shockwaves rippling across the sky. The Dragon Kingshed out with a massive w, but Lilith dodged effortlessly, herughter echoing in the air. She retaliated with a flurry of dark energy sts, but the Dragon King merely roared, his scales shimmering with an imprable light that deflected her attacks.


    With a mighty sweep of his tail, he struck Lilith with bone-shattering force, sending her spiraling through the air. She righted herself just in time to avoid a second strike, her eyes zing with defiance.


    "You''re strong," she admitted, breathing hard. "But I''m stronger."


    The Dragon King snarled, his wings ring wide. "Prove it, then!"


    They surged towards each other again, fists and ws colliding in a brutal dance of power. The Dragon King''s sheer physical strength overwhelmed Lilith, breaking her bones and shattering her defenses. He seized her by the throat, lifting her high into the air.

    "You''re nothing but a child ying at being a warrior," he growled, tightening his grip.


    But Lilith only grinned, even as pain wracked her body. "And you''re just a lizard with a godplex," she spat.


    With a sudden, violent twist, she broke free, her body glowing with dark energy. Her broken bones snapped back into ce, and shended lightly on her feet, her smile never wavering.


    "Round two, shall we?" she whispered, her eyes gleaming with madness.
