Free Web NovelChapter 57: Preparation
"Of course. I’ll go right now. Lize, Hena, please look after Tifa and Tina for me. I’ll go follow the three guards right now."
Elize’s soft voice involuntarily came out of her mouth before I floated away after the three guards. Flicking her fingers, a dark black suit of armor appeared on both of Elize’s palms.
The size of the armor was very small and could even be held with just one palm of Elize’s hand. The armor was not low-tier armor. Rather, it was armor that could adjust to the size of the user’s body and allow them to fight freely.
[Demonic Armor: is at tier 5 among every existing armor. One of the armors that can help you increase your defense by one level above. It cannot be destroyed unless the strength of the being is at a level above the 5th star rank.]
"Master... Thank you very much! I will use it well. See you again in the arena!"
A look of disdain could be seen in the two guards’ gazes. Moreover, the guard who had previously insulted me couldn’t hide his dissatisfied expression after witnessing the incident before him. For the guard, getting special attention from beautiful female dragons was what every male dragon dreamed of most.
A human succeeding in capturing the hearts of two beautiful female dragons was something the guards could not tolerate. But the human man in front of them was the future son-in-law of the Dragon Queen, Lilith. They wouldn’t be able to behave badly towards me as long as Lilith was still in the empire.
"Ck. How lucky is this human brat? He even managed to get the full attention of the Frost Empress and the Black Star Dragon? He’s simply not worthy of their hearts!" Whispers after whispers could be heard among the three guards’ conversation. I, who was behind the three guards, could easily hear every word the three guards said. Even though I was angry, I couldn’t do anything stupid while in enemy territory.
Among the crowd of citizens of the imperial capital, the figure of a handsome man around 31 years old was seen raising his head towards the place where I was hovering. He frowned and said, "So that’s the person who dared to kill the three brothers? I’ve seen it from the recording you gave me."
The man’s eyes turned slightly to the side beside him. The man’s height was no less than 193 cm. Even so, dark circles could be seen under his eyes.
Most of the work the man did involved conducting various experiments on any beings that could potentially pose a threat to the empire. Now, the figure of a human who could threaten the power of the empire had appeared in the Dragon Realm. Therefore, the man decided to do further research into my extraordinary powers. free𝑤ebnovel.com
"What do you think of that human? Will he be a threat to the Dragon Emperor?"
"Unfortunately, I have to say that he can’t defeat the Dragon Emperor. The current him is still too weak. But one thing I can explain about that human is that he has potential far above the Frost Empress."
Every dragon citizen within the Dragon Realm knew that Elize was the only dragon of the current generation who was born with talent that defied common sense. Apart from Lilith, who possessed endless talent, Elize was the only dragon born with extraordinary talent in hundreds of thousands of years.
"This is troublesome. Looks like we have to get rid of the Dragon Emperor’s plan to lure that woman out of her nest first. We have to find a way to kill that human, no matter what it takes."
"Then every archer squad and I will follow your plan. May the Dragon Emperor live in prosperity forever."
"Hopefully, he and every one of his descendants can live forever too." The handsome man’s companion showed just as much worship towards the Dragon Emperor as his companion. All the inhabitants of the Dragon Realm worshiped the Dragon Emperor as their Divine Dragon. For that reason, the Dragon Emperor was the only Dragon race that could fight as an equal against Lilith.
Only those who sided with the Divine Dragons could possess extraordinary power and stand at the top of the world. Both the Dragon race and various other races had their own gods to worship. Therefore, the balance of the entire world could not be broken as long as powerful existences like the Divine Dragon still lived in this world.
Time went on, and now Elize and the others were seated in luxurious seats. This was a private bench given by the Vermillion family to the members of the Lucifer family. However, the future son-in-law of the Lucifer family would soon face off against the legitimate heir of the Vermillion family.
In the room next to my dressing room, the figure of a man with red hair resembling flame patterns turned towards the figure of a man who looked exactly like him. A confused expression appeared on Charles’s face. On the other hand, Charles had absolutely no idea why his father had come to visit him.
"Dad, what are you doing in this room?"
"I just came to give you something that the Dragon Emperor wanted to give you earlier. He said that you should drink this just to be safe."
A pill with a strange red pattern was visible on Charles’s father’s palm. The aura emitted by the pill gave Charles a bad feeling in his heart. Even though Charles didn’t want to take the pill, the Dragon Emperor’s order was absolute and something Charles could not ignore.
Taking the pill into his hand, Charles’s expression returned to his disgusting look. He turned back to his father and said, "For what reason does His Majesty think that I would lose against that human boy? Doesn’t he believe in the strength of the rightful heir of the Vermillion family?"
Shaking his head, a look of helplessness began to appear on Charles’s father’s face. Neither Charles’s parents nor the members of the Vermillion family knew why the Dragon Emperor had decided to give this dangerous pill to their rightful heir. Even if their opponent was a strong man, the members of the Vermillion family would not cheat just to win against a human like Lucien.
