Moisheria get some fruits and eat inside the Magical Forest.
A few hours later.
It's already dark and Moisheria climb into a lofty tree. She make a swing out of her white robe. Then, she sleep in the swing.
"Mhmmm. Mhmmm." Moisheria wake up in the middle of the night when a little snake that she fought against lately came.
"What are you doing here?" Moisheria asked the snake. " I already set you free." She added.
"You're my Goddess. From now on, I will serve you." The snake hissed.
"That would be my pleasure. Is there any danger out there?" Moisheria asked.
"Get ready because the king of the night is just around." The snake hissed.
"Who?" Moisheria asked again.
"The Night Dragon." The snake replied.
"What?" Moisheria asked again out of shock. She never seen any dragon all her life but now.
"What kind of sound is that?" Moisheria asked when she heard the dragon.
"He is here." The snake hissed and run away.
Moisheria make a fire on the ground and the dragon saw it. The dragon fly and stop in the front of the tree where Moisheria is hiding.
"A dragon. I have to defeat it and get it's power." In Moisheria's mind.
"But how can I defeat it?" The girl asked in her mind.
"Tsss." Moisheria exclaimed when the dragon blow a fire to the tree that she is hiding. She immediately fly into the dragon and ride in its back.
The dragon immediately shake it's body to get rid of Moisheria from its back. It's size and height is as great as the giant snake too.
Moisheria tried stab the dragon using the Golden Sword on it's back and it bleed.
"I thought you have an invincible skin too." Moisheria said and stab the Night Dragon again and again. Then, she fly and cut off the dragons head.
The Night Dragon keep on standing even it's head was already cut.
To Moisheria's surprised, two more Dragon heads slowly grow in the dragon's neck.
"It can't be." Moisheria murmured and fly away from the dragon as fast as she can.
Moisheria noticed that the Dragon is not following her anymore.
"I have to find somewhere to hide." Moisheria said and get down in the ground. She walk and found a large cave.
Moisheria enter the cave and found no harm inside. There is a long way inside but Moisheria is tired and decided to check it on the morning. Then, the girl make a carpet and sleep on it.
The first night in the Magical Forest had passed. Moisheria wake up and found herself on the cave.
Moisheria stand up and roll her eyes around. She found a long way going inside the cave. The girl get curious on what is inside or where it is heading. She followed the way and found an old room on it's end.
"Someone was living here in the past." Moisheria murmured and there's a sudden sound of something.
"Who's there?" Moisheria asked.
"Tsss. A little rat." She said when a rat comes out from the dusty bed.
"I'm not just a little rat." The rat said.
"Then, what are you?" Moisheria asked.
"You understand me?" The rat asked back.
"I can understand and talk to any animals." Moisheria replied.
"Why are you here?" The rat asked.
"Queen Defil send me here for my final trainings." Moisheria replied. "Who are you? Why are you here?" Moisheria asked.
"I am Ratty." The rat said and turn himself into a Man.
"Awesome. You're not just a rat." Moisheria said. "I am Moisheria." She introduced herself.
"I've been here for a thousand of years. I'm a beast hunter." Ratty said.
"Why do you hunt beast?" Moisheria asked.
"I was once a Kung Fu master and this Forest is our village." Ratty replied.
"This Forest is your village? What do you mean?" Moisheria asked again.
"Yes! In the past, this is a village. One day, someone make a portal and let the Night Dragon enter here with a lot of beast. The Night Dragon burned my village and the beast killed my people." The old man said and his tears started to flow.
"Only you did survived?" Moisheria asked.
"Yes, but I haven't found my daughter's body." Ratty replied.
"Maybe she's alive." Moisheria said.
"It's been a thousand years. How can she survive by the beast? She's not like me who knows kungfu and I've been searching for her for a hundred of years. Though, I found no one here except me." Ratty said.
"How did you manage to live for a thousand of years?" Moisheria asked.
"I hunt the beast to avenge my village. One day, I discovered that the beast's power can be absorb. I do it in every beast that I killed and it make me powerful. I killed innumerous beast until one day, I'm powerful enough to heal my self when I get wounded. My immune system is strong enough to fight against any diseases. Then, I reach this age." Ratty explained.
"Amazing." Moisheria said. "Have you ever fight against the so called Night Dragon?" Moisheria asked.
"Ofcourse, a lot of times but I failed to kill it. My weapons can't give even a scratch on its skin. The same with the giant snake, I'm still looking for something to use against them." Ratty said.
"I already defeat the giant snake." Moisheria said.
"You, you killed it?" Ratty asked.
"No, I just control it and get it's power. I already turned him into a little snake." Moisheria replied.
"How did you control it?" Ratty asked.
"I am a Witch and I can control one's mind if I want. Though, it depends if my capability is stronger than the power of mind of someone or something I want to control." Moisheria replied.
"Amazing, you just use your natural ability to defeat that giant snake. The snake is strong and powerful but it really has a small brain." Ratty said. "Why don't we use your magic to defeat the Night Dragon?" He asked.
"I already fight against the Dragon last night. I tried to use my power but it doesn't work on the Dragon. I tried using my Golden Sword and it wounded the Night Dragon. The problem is, it can't be killed by just slashing and stabbing of my Golden Sword. So, I tried to cut it's head and I succeed." Moisheria have not finished speaking but Ratty already asked something in excitement.
"You killed the Night Dragon?" Ratty asked.
Moisheria shake her head. "No, it just doubled it's head." Moisheria replied.
"What?" Ratty asked in curiosity.
"Another two heads grow on it's neck when I cut one." Moisheria replied.
"No way. How can we defeat it now?" The old man asked.
"I didn't come here to kill and hunt beast. I came here to train and improve my skills and power." Moisheria said.
"Killing the Night Dragon will help you practice and improve your skills. All the fight here is a challenge of your master to make you stronger and powerful, don't you get it?" Ratty asked.
"You're right. Yet, I don't want to kill it." Moisheria said.
"Why not?" Ratty asked with curiosity.
"I don't know. I just don't want to kill anything since I was born. Maybe there's another way to get rid of the Night Dragon and stop it's cruelty." Moisheria replied.
