Chapter 283: There Was No Victor
The First Generation of Dragons realized that something was wrong with them. It was in the way they were created. Thus, they prayed to the God of Dragons to allow their lives to end.
But who would willingly end their creation’s life when the time for their death has not yet come?
The God of Dragons refused to end their lives despite their lack of will to continue living. He also said that he had been telling them to reproduce but they never listened so he won’t listen to them as well.
The First Generation then resolved to act on it themselves. Since the God of Dragons didn’t pay much attention to them anyway, they refused to listen to him as well.
After all, it was his fault that they were not interested in procreating. If he had created them with that instinct and desire to preserve their kind, they probably had a lot of children by now. It was his fault in the first place so they didn’t want to be blamed for it.
Moreover, why do they need to reproduce when the Second Generation already did their role well? There were already a lot of dragons when compared to their number in the past.
Likewise, the First Generation didn’t really care about anything anymore. They were no longer interested in doing anything. Not even living. They simply wanted to stop existing.
It was probably due to their long life that seemed to be never-ending. They were mentally exhausted even if their bodies were still strong and healthy.
Thus, the solution they decided to was to try killing each other. The First Generation then fought with each other with the aim to kill their opponent.
The fight lasted for several years. The earth was ravaged, the seas dried up, and there were disasters caused by their powers everywhere. The world was laid to waste. But not a single dragon from the First Generation died.
After all, contrary to their wish to die, their instinct to fight back and survive overpowered their will to die. Once an attack was coming, they always instinctively fought back, instead of just receiving a death blow.
