Both of them heard footsteps coming from the first path and turned towards it, and Xavier saw that it was Mari, and a smile formed on his face, but the look on her face was different.
"Humans!" She muttered.
Mari held a bag filled with crystal, but she dropped it the next moment and immediately took a fighting stance, going on all fours.
Xavier was shocked, but then he remembered that the illusion mask was the only thing keeping his identity, and now it was gone, and the dragon beside him looked like a human.
"Wait, Mari, it's me," Xavier spoke as he stretched his hands, trying to calm her down, but she wasn't buying any of it.
Immediately, she dashed forward towards Xavier, but in his eyes, she was a little slow. He quickly moved out of the way, but the dragon behind him didn't, as he saw her hands moving.
*BOOM...THUD!!*
