Shin's eyes were wide open, surprised by the discovery of the thing that had attracted so much attention.

In the middle of the square was a green feather that floated in the air thanks to magic.​​

The feather was a beautiful green, shiny and glittering and radiated an energy of life around it.

The magical power that emanated from it was also very powerful, even if it was only a feather.

It brought serenity and calm to the people by its simple sight.

Shin was surprised but curious to know how one of her feathers had ended up here and why it had been exposed.

So he asked a person chosen at random next to him.

"Excuse me" while addressing a man next to him.

"Could you tell me what this feather is and why it is on display?"

The man looked at him suspiciously and analyzed Shin from top to bottom.

A look of understanding seemed to emerge from the sight of Shin's clothes.

"You must surely be a traveler not to know this"

"That's right."

The man sighs and then turns his head towards the feather to continue admiring it while answering Shin's question.

"This feather is a feather of the Heavenly Phoenix, it is a very powerful artifact that overflows with great magical power and unknown power with divine healing powers. It is displayed because it gives hope and for the immense gratitude and belief in the Heavenly Phoenix," the man said with some pride.

"Who is the Heavenly Phoenix? And what do you mean by divine healing powers?"

Shin asked further questions to understand what Dragnof knew about him.

"The Heavenly Phoenix is a being who appeared in a battle against the dragons and helped us defeat them. We don't really know if he is human or something else, we only know that his name is "Phoenix". In addition, rumors have been circulating that he reappeared in the battle just an hour ago. As for the divine healing powers, when the soldiers brought the feather back to the kingdom, the Energy it released healed the wounds of the soldiers nearby".

As the man explained to him, Shin was surprised to hear rumors that he was present in the battle an hour ago.

The spread was terrifying.

But Shin concluded that for the time being, he did not know what a "Phoenix" was.

Perhaps there were no books that talked about them as mythical and imaginary beasts.

Then as Shin was in his thoughts, the Energy of Life from the feather began to intensify and pulsate with power.

The sudden intensification caught the citizens unawares as he was enjoying the Energy of Life en masse.

The Energy could only be beneficial to them and would do them no harm.

The Energy that was now spreading throughout Dragnof began to move and focus in the direction of Shin.

At the same time, the feather that hovered in the center began to tremble slightly to make it understand that she had felt the presence of Shin and that she wished to return to her original place.

Watching the whole scene, the citizens were stunned.

At first they did not understand the sudden explosion of Energy and then when they saw the Energy moving towards the man as an unknown, they all asked themselves the same question.

'Who is this man?'

Why was the Energy and the feather reacting like that in front of Shin?

The feather that was shaking more and more until it lost the magic around it that protected it with disconcerting ease.

It was the wise dragon, Belserion who had installed it!

It should not be so easy to break.

The citizens were stunned, but they quickly recovered by remembering where the feather came from.

Having put things into perspective, they observed the behavior of the feather to see that it was also heading towards the young man.

'Will the feather defend itself against the theft of Energy?'

But when the feather arrived in front of Shin, the citizens could only look at the scene in front of them without being able to say anything because they were so shocked.

The feather had stopped in front of Shin and Shin unconsciously pulled out his wings so that the feather threw itself on them and returned to its place.

Even Shin did not understand what was happening.

'System, can you explain?'

So he went back to the only 'person' who could know.

[It's simple host, the feather that fell from your body was not plucked out of your own free will, so it will return to its host if it feels it's close, or if you pluck a feather out intentionally, then the feather will not react like that].

'I see' is always interesting to know.

It was disturbing to know that you weren't even the one who knew you best, but a system.

------------------

While the event was taking place in front of the palace, a young woman was standing in a very large room filled with bookshelves with a ton of books.

This young woman was quite tall and voluptuous, she had scarlet hair leaning on her back with one side of her hair having a braid that looked like a rope. She had brown eyes fitting her beautiful jade face. As for clothing, she wore a white coat passing behind her, a sort of black stripe forming an x on her belly leaving it uncovered, a long combat skirt following the top and a belt with a sword hanging from it. She was a fatal beauty for any man but emitted the aura of a serious and powerful queen.

She was, of course, Irene Belserion, Queen of Dragons and Queen of Dragnof.

She was sitting on a chair with a large pile of books on the table.

She had come to the library to see if she could find any information about the Celestial Phoenix.

Find out if it was some kind of god, an ancient existence, or what race it came from.

She had a clue knowing that he claimed to be a Phoenix so she looked for this race in the oldest books she found in the library.

However, she had been searching the books for almost 6 months and hadn't found anything yet.

In addition she was busy with her work as a Dragnof Queen so she could only search in times of freedom, which was very little time per day.

So Belserion took more work than usual to give Irene some free time.

She closed a book when she sighed with fatigue and dissatisfaction at still not having found any information in 6 months!

In addition, an hour ago, a rumor was circulating that the Celestial Phoenix had reappeared on the battlefield after 6 months of absence.

If it continued like this, she would have to stop her research because of the time it was taking her.

Then turning the pages of a book, the pages caught her attention.

Looking at the pages she turned, she could see that each page was about a creature she had never heard of.

Seeing a glimmer of hope that she would find the answer to her question in this book, she put all her attention on this book as she searched for a creature named 'Phoenix' or with the physical descriptions she received from the soldiers in the field.

Turning page by page, she came across a page with a drawing of a large bird with a name marked above it.

"Phoenix" read Irene with a happy and satisfied smile on her face making her even more sublime.

Then she looked at the writings on the right page next to the drawing and read them.

"The Phoenix is a mythical and ancient bird made of fire and endowed with great longevity and characterized by its power to rise again from its ashes after being consumed in its flames. It is extremely powerful and beautiful and has been prayed to by many as the God of life and death. He was also much prized for his tears that could heal any wound and his feathers considered as an artifact of great power. Yet his existence has never been proven over time."

(This description is only a description taken from google and a little modified by me so don't pay too much attention to it)

When Irene finished reading the text, she was shocked beyond words, her smile widened and her eyes shone.

Such a powerful and ancient creature had found itself on the battlefield and had helped them.

They discovered a creature as ancient as the world and that had never been seen before.

She had never seen it personally but all her soldiers swore to her that it was the truth and she believed in them.

Irene could not believe it, they even had one of her feathers which was considered a very powerful artifact.

Moreover, Irene had noticed that the Phoenix on the book was drawn with a mixture of red and orange, whereas according to her soldiers' statements, the Celestial Phoenix was green.

She wondered why, but she put the question to the side of her mind.

As she marveled, the library door suddenly opened to give way to the presence of a palace guard.

"My Queen, something has happened in the place where the feather of the Celestial Phoenix is," said the soldier with an urgent and strong voice, but always with respect.

Hearing this, Irene came out of her state of wonder and jumped out of her panicked chair.

"What happened?!" Irene asked in a strict and strong voice.

"The Energy of the feather suddenly intensified and came into contact with a stranger," said the soldier hastily.

Irene rushed out of the library as she ran towards the square.

'What's going on with the feather? Who is this person?'
