Chapter 840: The Menace
"What are we waiting for?" Cerilla asked as they sat with Alcott on the peak of a mountain looking down at one of the kingdom's capitals.
"I've called some help." Alcott replied, "They won't miss my signal." He replied with a smile as he leaned back on a tree.
"Who can help us? I can summon the whole elvish army." Cerilla looked at him with a worried face.
"I too can call the dark elf army; don't underestimate the power of our mages." Jasmine said with pride, "We're not losing to those pale arses."
"What did you just call us?" Cerilla glared a there.
"Both of your armies are slow, they won't be of much help. I need fast people, those who have wings and are strong enough to face dragons." He looked to the side, "Isn't that right old man?"
"Getting my old bones to move." Kinryuu replied, "You're really one annoying human, aren't you."
"Aren't we all annoying? There are some metal dragons with the bastard I'm hunting; he himself is a silver dragon." Alcott replied as Cerilla and Jasmine gasped in shock.
"Your kind fucked up, Goldy." A large red dragon showed up out of nowhere, he was camouflaged like a lizard. "I've checked the magic trace Alcott sent us. It's that bastard SaaMulgiin."
"Is that his true name?" Alcott looked at Ignis, "Do you know what he can do?"
"He's a silver dragon that mastered time and ice magic." Kinryuu replied, "He learned it from this chameleon's kind."
Ginger glared at them, "Can you stop throwing jabs at each other? Focus on the current problem."
"He's one nasty dragon to fight." Ignis nodded, "We'll send some people to help you deal with him."
"We too, since he's of our kind, we are also responsible for his actions." Kinryuu shook his head, "What a disappointment. I don't what got into him in the past one thousand years."
"I don't need help dealing with him. I want you to go out and hunt his minions, stop the kingdoms from attacking Arad." Alcott stood.
"If they attacked Arad, I'll be taking his side." He glared at Kinryuu and Ignis, "You know what that means?"
"Wait..." Kinryuu gasped.
"Hold a moment..." Ignis cried, "If they attacked him, you should be helping us stop the battle. Right?"
"An unjust attack on my son and you expect me to stay quiet? I'll destroy all of those kingdoms down to the last head." He cracked his neck. "You're working to prevent a situation where I'll be your enemy, so do your best."
He jumped away with Ginger flying at his side. Cerilla used wind magic to fly while Jasmine used fire magic, creating jets to propel herself through the air.
"Say, Goldy. Do you think we can beat him now?" Ignis asked.
"When his mother was pregnant with him, she had a heart attack. Help didn't come to her for two hours, and when they arrived, their faces paled. Even though her heart had long stopped, she had remained alive." He looked at Ignis with glowing eyes. "Alcott wasn't even born yet his heart kept beating and kept his mother alive. He has the heart of the first human Adam, and later received a holy sword from the god of humans Chad."
"When he was born, he gripped the maid's finger so hard he almost broke it and his umbilical cord needed an axe to be severed." Kinryuu shook his head, "We've told Alcott about this but discarded it, we're discovered why he can't have children. It's indeed a problem within him."
Kinryuu sighed, "His genes are too strong. He can't procreate with any random woman; their eggs get ripped apart by his sperm like they are vipers. It's no wonder he only has a son with a void drakaina."
"You're saying it won't be strange to add that he defeated both humans and dragons on the list. We better get to work then." They flew away to find SaaMulgiin's minions and stop the kingdoms from attacking Arad.
Like father like son, both are monsters that none want beef with. Fighting both Arad and Alcott at the same time sounds like a hellish nightmare that even the dragons don't want to mess with.
On the second to last kingdom, the king rushed toward the throne room in a panic, he had heard that an intruder was spotted inside. "You Highness, please slow down, let the guards handle this."
"Shut up! There is only one man who can do such a thing." He pushed the door open only to see Alcott sitting on the throne with the guards surrounding him, screaming at him to get out. "Jimmy Anderson the fifth, you've got a lot of guts in the past years. What do you think yourself doing with such an army outside?" Alcott glared at the king with glowing eyes.
"There is a powerful monster in the desert; we've gathered our forces to slay it." The king replied as he slowly walked toward the throne and stood there.
"Your Highness! Let's get this insolent man out of the throne first! He should be thrown in jail for the rest of his life!" A noble growled.
"When Alcott walks into a throne room, we're his guests." The king replied. "Something got you angry, dragon slayer Alcott. Please tell me and I'll make sure it never happens again." "There is no need to cause trouble if they don't know, right?" Ginger walked from behind the throne. She was hiding in the shadows and none of the guards managed to spot her, a perfect vampire.
"We'll help as well." Cerilla and Jasmine appeared out of nowhere, they were hiding with Jasmine's illusion magic.
"The dark elf and elvish queen?!" The king gasped seeing those two there. "We're here to lend credit to Alcott's words."
"The monster in the desert is Uranus. My only son." Alcott growled, "If you're going to attack him, I take that you're attacking me as well. So I've come here to finish the battle before it starts." Alcott looked at the paling king.
"Is your army trying to attack my son?"
"No! No! What limited information we have says that the being in the desert is a cursed monster that spreads the curse of death. We're trying to eliminate him before he starts moving and cause a disaster." The king shook his head, "We never intended to start a war with you."
"My son is just resting. He'll not attack unless provoked, and the same for me." Alcott stood and started walking toward the king.
The guards tried to stab him with their spears, but the shafts snapped in half, Alcott slashed them before they could even notice.
"Now, for who advised you for such a foolish action." Alcott growled, "Is it those two in the back? A dragon and a drakaina disguised as humans, and a paladin and a priestess no less."
The king ran away as did everyone and left Alcott staring at the two dragons.
The drakaina immediately pulled a staff and cast a massive spell, the ninth-tier [Diamond dome] A barrier spell that create a dome-shaped glass-like shield.
Alcott took a step forward, and his face touched the barrier. He kept walking, pushing on the barrier so hard he shattered it and walked through.
"You tuned this barrier to nullify shocks, slashes, thrusts, and even bludgeoning damage and impacts. It's impossible to get through with any of those, but that also makes it weak to sheer pressure. If I were to apply constant force to it, it'll behave no different than glass." Alcott said a passive face and swung a sword down, slashing the drakaina from head to groin. "Now, SaaMulgiin. Care to explain why do you want to kill my son? Nah, don't bother, I don't care about what a corpse has to say." Alcott approached him, ready to fight.
