Chapter 6: Proceed
[Jasmine’s POV:]
I’ve heard countless stories about Senior Hades.
You could walk into the common hall at any time of day, and chances are, one in every five groups would be discussing him—his battles, his madness, his terrifying strength.
In an era where even students of dragon-slaying academies struggle to face a single Solitary-ranked dragon...
...he fought a group of them. Alone.
And even more impossibly—he defeated an Elder-ranked dragon. All by himself.
But what intrigued me the most wasn’t just his strength—it was his hatred.
His pure, unwavering hatred toward dragons.
I’ve heard so many stories about why he despises them so deeply.
Some say he was traumatized as a child, forced to face a colossal dragon when he was too young to fight back.
Others whisper that he lost someone he loved—someone taken by dragon fire or talons. That grief, they say, is what forged him into the man he is today.
