Dragon King's Harem Chapter 192. Fiery Ground II
The Others' PoV
Eir gritted his teeth due to his failed attack, but he didn't give up and lunged at General Dravis mercilessly. This time it was General Dravis who countered him with his skill.
Dozens of sharp Earth Needles charged towards Eir. But he nimbly dodged them all and thrust his sword at the general's head.
The general gritted his teeth and dodge it at the last second. Still, the blade managed to scratch his cheek. It was a sharp and precise attack, if not because the general had a lot of battle experience, he might have died.
Realizing it was his chance, the General stomped his foot. A huge earth spike appeared below Eir to hit his chest. But Eir simply used the spike as a foothold before he pushed his body backward to maneuver in mid-air and landed elegantly a few meters from the general.
His eyes stared intently at the general. Once again, he spread his blade to the side, indicating he was ready to attack again. His killing intent was clear. He looked like a different person from the dragon who used to serve The Dragon King.
General Dravis quickly recognized his face.
'Ah of course. It's the dragon king's assistant,' thought the general. He had met Eir once when he accompanied Xinrax in Argod's coronation. It was just that due to his ordinary appearance, Dravis never thought the assistant was that strong. Indeed his power was only slightly above the elite soldier's average, but his swordsmanship was something else.
Eir tilted the blade again, aiming his blade edge at the general. This time he was sure he would not miss. Fearlessly, he stormed at Dravis.
Dravis raised his weapon and prepared to smash Eir. But before they met, a loud roar echoed in the sky which was followed by a huge earthquake. Both Eir and Dravis stopped their steps. They knew that the phenomenon indicated that the duel between the kings was over. One of them had won. The question was, who?
The pain pierced Dravis' chest. Likewise with some elite Minotaur soldiers. Their faces had turned pale since that definitely wasn't a good sign for them. No, that wasn't a good sign for the entire Minotaur tribe.
Dravis quickly turned to his Mark of Servant which was on his arm. Slowly it disappeared like ink faded in water.
“Oh no…” Dravis muttered in shock. His nightmare had come true. He knew that meant the king had lost and his tribe had no leader. It was his golden opportunity to take over the throne if… he could get out of here alive. Unfortunately he wasn't sure he could do it. The king was dead and they were in the middle of the battlefield. After a one-way massacre, this bad news would destroy his soldiers' morale for sure.
Some may decide to give up or let the dragons kill them out of desperation. Even that thought crossed his mind. But he knew that if he gave up now, the Minotaur would lose completely. At least he wanted to bring the remaining soldiers home and reunite them with their families.
In the middle of that chaos, another roar sounded in the sky. Dravis tilted his head to the sky. His sight immediately caught a huge black hole before the dragon king himself came out of it. This was the first time he saw Argod in his dragon form. The king looked majestic and terrifying at the same time, especially with his brother's body hanging weakly between his teeth.
“Brother…” Dravis whispered with mixed feelings. Unfortunately, he didn't have time to mourn or be sentimental about this since the Dragon King came straight to them.

Argod's PoV
Once I exited my portal, I quickly swept my gaze around to find Dravis. This is the second time I opened my portal since I didn't find that Minotaur General on the battlefield in front of Firestone Fortress so I tracked his Earth Mana to look for him.
Quickly, my sight caught the general figure among the tall earth spikes. Eir was not far in front of him.
Another roar came out of my mouth. It was an order for all the dragons to turn into their original forms and go up to the sky. Even though it was a bit difficult since I was still holding Xinrax's body between my teeth, somehow I managed to do it. One wrong move, I could accidentally swallow Xinrax's whole body while I still need it to negotiate.
Upon my order, Eir and other elite soldiers flapped their wings and changed into their true forms. A roar escaped their mouths as they flew to my sides.
I stopped in the mid-air with my eyes fixed on Dravis who was ready to fight me or counter my attack. But instead of a fire type attack that could cook their bodies, I used my Telekinetic on the spikes.
- Doom!
Due to my huge form, my Telekinetic was much more powerful and the range was much wider. A strong invisible power flattened the spikes in a second, like a big hand smacked by a mosquito. The difference was that my only targets were the spikes. While I let the Minotaurs unharmed. Still, they had to stick their weapons to the ground to keep their footing due to the violent wind mixed with the dust that hit them fiercely.
After the impact was over, I threw Xinrax's torn body.
- Brak!
It landed at Dravis' feet.
"My King!" The Minotaurs soldiers quickly approached the body and kneeled before it. Cries and regret were evident on their faces.
Unlike all of them, Dravis didn't take his eyes off me or even lowered his weapon. From the look in his eyes, I could tell he was ready to die on the battlefield.
I answered him by changing myself into my humanoid form and descending. The blood taste immediately filled my mouth since my humanoid form's tongue could taste everything better. While in my dragon form I could only taste the texture. The blood tasted sweet. It tasted similar to a sweet flavored cocktail. I never thought something scary and raw would taste good. Now I understood why they were afraid of the dragons.
I stopped 20 meters above the ground to keep my distance.
"I just want to talk," I said without further ado.
