Chapter 555: Recruiting Allies [Part 3]
The three Earth Dragons of the Rigel Continent were living a life they never thought they would.
After eating different kinds of food—from junk food to high-class dishes prepared by the best chefs in the world, their palate had changed completely.
Not only that but they were introduced to watching shows on TV, which made them become fans of certain celebrities.
They also liked to play console games and had become addicted to chatting with others over the internet.
Endi, the only female Earth Dragon in the group, had also become an online shopper, buying the latest fashion brands and cosmetics, as well as other items that women used on a daily basis.
In short, she had become a fashionista, and would often call Michael to have her items delivered as fast as possible.
Just when the three were wiping their tears with tissue paper due to a heartbreaking scene in the show that they were watching, Thirteen appeared in front of them.
When he saw the three Earth Dragons crying, he thought that something terrible had happened to them.
However, after realizing that they were just watching a show on Netfix, he decided to walk to the side and wait until the show was finished.
Fifteen minutes later, the show finally ended, and the two Earth Dragons finally regained their composure.
"You're back, Zion," Endi said as she finished wiping the tears in her eyes. "Did your mission in Solterra end?"
"You came earlier than expected," the leader of the Earth Dragons, Rogg, said with a smile. "Did you come to see how we are doing?"
Thirteen shook his head. "No. My mission has still not ended. I am actually here to ask the three of you for help."
"You're asking us for help?" The third Earth Dragon, Brazzom, arched an eyebrow.
The three Earth Dragons had taken a liking to Zion, and they believed that the teenage boy had a lot of potential.
However, since he was asking them for help, it meant that he was currently facing a problem that even he couldn't deal with on his own.
"Do you guys know about an Ancient Eight-Headed Serpent named Orochi?" Thirteen asked. "He's currently in the way of my mission."
"…"
"…"
"…How did that savage snake appear in Solterra?"
Seeing the three Earth Dragon's reactions, he could tell that they knew of the Majin king he was talking about.
"Do you know it?" Thirteen asked.
"Yes," Endi replied. "There was a time when it invaded our territory. Fortunately, the three of us working together is enough to create a defensive wall that blocked Orochi's advance."
"He's very strong, but since we have full control over the Earth Element, he wasn't able to break past our defenses," Rogg stated. "But that was it. The only thing we can do is defend with all of our might."
"I'm glad that it left because we were also reaching our limits back then," Brazzom commented. "In the end, he is still a Majin King. If one of us had been missing during that battle, we would have been easily defeated. Two Earth Dragons are definitely not enough to stop it."
The three of them glanced at each other before shifting their gaze back to Zion.
"Do you want us to help you deal with that monster?" Rogg asked.
"Yes," Thirteen replied. "My goal is to defeat it."
"Defeat it?" Endi looked at the teenage boy in disbelief. "I don't think it's possible. Even if we agree to help you, the only thing that we can do is defend. Nothing else."
"That's fine," Thirteen replied. "I only need you to stop it. Also, I will guarantee that none of you will get killed by it."
"You can guarantee that?" Brazzom asked.
But before Thirteen could answer, someone else answered for him.
"He can't, but I can."
The three Earth Dragons felt a chill run down their spine as their gazes landed on the demi-human bunny wearing butler clothes, who suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
"Fiend!" Endi gasped in shock after realizing the strength of the Laplace Demon.
The two other Earth Dragons looked at the demon with wary gazes because this being was someone that even surpassed the power of a Majin King.
"I will guarantee your safety," Laplace Demon repeated. "If ever there will come a time when the Majin King is about to land a killing blow to any of you, I will immediately teleport you back here in the Rigel Continent."
The three Earth Dragons exchanged glances with each other before shifting their gaze to the teenage boy, who was standing beside the Laplace Demon.
"Are there any benefits if we help you, Zion?" Endi asked. "If the conditions for helping you are good, we might consider your proposal."
Thirteen pondered a bit before looking at the three Earth Dragons with a faint smile on his face.
"How about this—I will try to convince the Laplace Demon to allow you to leave the Rigel Continent and explore the world in your human forms. Of course, you will have restrictions placed on you so that you won't be able to harm others as you travel the world.
"Lastly, I will arrange for you to meet your favorite celebrities and even get the chance to join them as actors on set. Who knows? Maybe the three of you can become the next superstars of the world!"
The corner of Laplace Demon's lips twitched because Thirteen's proposal was crazy.
How could three Earth Dragons wander around the world and even become superstars?
But before he could even tell Thirteen that what he wanted wasn't possible, the three Earth Dragons immediately stood up and surrounded the teenage boy.
"Hahaha! I can now finally meet my favorite Idol, Miku!" Brazzom laughed out loud.
"Can I also go on a date with Yan Yan?" Endi asked. "I mean, he's totally my type!"
"There is this actress named Zendaiyah that I like," Rogg said in a serious tone. "Can we work together in a TV Show or a Movie with the two of us being the main leads?"
"Of course!" Thirteen replied in a heartbeat.
How could he not possibly agree to such a thing?
Going on a fan meetup with the Idol Miku? Consider it done!
Going on a date with the heartthrob Yan Yan? Even if he tied him up and dragged him kicking and screaming, Thirteen would see it through till the end.
Performing together with the popular actress Zendaiyah? No problem!
He would even arrange for Rogg to wear the Spaderman Costume, and create a movie called, "Spader Man, Far From Home!", script written by Zion Leventis!
While the three Earth Dragons were celebrating because their wishes would be granted, the Laplace Demon pinched the bridge of his nose.
In the end, the right-hand man of The One decided to let Arthur Leventis handle the aftermath of the mess that his no-good grandson was planning to make after dealing with the Majin King in the world of Solterra.
Also, the three Earth Dragons added a second condition, and that was to ensure that the Dimensional Gate they were protecting wouldn't be destroyed while they were away.
Laplace Demon reluctantly agreed to this condition. After all, this was the main task of the three Earth Dragons, who were now pumped up to face the Majin King whom they had fought with in the past.
But instead of heading directly to the Absolute Heaven, Thirteen asked Laplace Demon to take him somewhere else in Solterra.
This place was none other than the Valbarra Archipelago, where Thirteen would ask his fourth helper, who was currently taking a nap near the statue of Zion, unaware that it was about to get kidnapped whether it liked it or not.
