Dragon King's Harem Chapter 148. The Ancestral Dragon's Second Challenge IV

'This is awesome!' I shouted internally as soon as I saw the skills. My eyes fell on the announcement in front of me. Shadow Walk, Cronos, and Magma Typhoon. Even though he only gave me three skills, all of them were epic skills. Indeed those weren't in my skill description, but the descriptions alone were enough to tell me.

"Thank you," I said with a satisfied grin. I could use Shadow Walk and Cronos to do surprise attacks on Arter. And Magma Typhoon to destroy The Orcs and Minotaur. Well, Magma Typhoon sounded the coolest of all, but I was more curious about Shadow Walk and Cronos.

With my current level Cronos, I could freeze 0.76 seconds and that was enough to kill someone since I could throw about 15 to 20 hits per second. While I could use Shadow Walk to ambush.

He lowered his head, put it in front of my face, and narrowed his eyes.
"You shall not disappoint me. Kill their kings and make them understand that no one can trample the dragons." His voice made it sound like a threat mixed with an order.

I bowed my head and put my hand on my chest. A smile on my lips.
"Of course, Your Majesty. That is my plan."

He grinned in satisfaction.
"Good." Then his body shattered into shards of light followed by his voice which echoed throughout the room.
"Now prove it to me, Argod. Crush them..."

"I will, Your Majesty," I said without lifting my head.

I turned and walked to the exit.
'I should try my skill immediately,' I thought.

Elsewhere, Eir and Al strode through the corridor as fast as they could once they heard that the king was going to the Ancestral Chamber again. It was the guard who protected the chamber who reported it to them, so it couldn't be wrong.

The guard said the king came on his own and he knew he had a certain purpose to come to the place. But the guards' worries grew after they heard the sound of battle from within the chamber. To make it worse, the battle sound was worse than before. So they decided to report it to Eir. Since Eir was discussing the upcoming duel with Al, both of them quickly rushed to the chamber.

"I don't get it, why does he keep going there over and over again?" said Al without stopping his steps. His serious face dispersed his childish image.

"How do I know?" retorted Eir. He also looked worried. His brain tried to guess what happened, but nothing came to his mind.

"But you're almost with His Majesty all the time. Why don't you know the reason he went there?" said Al in panic.

"I told you I don't know!" Eir raised his voice even though he knew he had to keep this matter a secret.

Al replied with a click of his tongue either in annoyance or panic. Even though he didn't know much about that chamber, he knew the Dragon King shouldn't be there before his death. But Argod went there twice. Not to mention he would face war later. Somehow that gave him a bad omen.

"Is His Majesty out yet?" asked Eir as they arrived in front of the chamber, skipping the formalities.

"Not yet, sir. But it's been a while since the noise disappeared," replied the guard in worry.

"He should be out soon right?" asked Al again. Since he was from the Witch Tribe, he didn't know much about this kind of thing.

"It should be," answered Eir unsure. But since he didn't feel any energy disturbance from within the chamber, he was pretty sure Argod was fine.

They walked back and forth in worry in front of the chamber, hoping the king would get out of there soon. It was the longest one minute they had ever felt before the door finally opened. But no one got out of there.

Instead, the king appeared from their shadows. His body emerged from the shadow like a ghost that suddenly appeared to scare its victims.

-----

"Worried about me?" I said in a teasing tone as soon as I emerged from behind them. It was my Shadow Walk skill.

They startled and turned around in reflex. While the chamber door closed by itself.

"Your Majesty, you startled us," complained Eir.

While Al said something else.
"Is this really you?" He grabbed my shoulders, and body and patted my face to make sure I wasn't a ghost.

I took his hands away from me.
"Yes. It's me. I just tried my new skill."

"Ha... I see," Al breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your Majesty, you should stop doing something dangerous. You will make our hearts stop," said Eir.

I answered with a humming sound.
"Hm... That's a tough request," I said.

That was enough to frustrate them.
"Are you kidding me?" whined Al.

"Please tell me you won't be going anywhere dangerous again after this." Eir's voice sounded like a beg.

"I have to go to Vermillion Mountain, remember?" I reminded them.

They closed their eyes and exhaled.

"Eir, we will leave before lunch," I ignored their reaction.

"But---" Before Eir could finish his words, I interrupted him.
"Don't forget to ask Evelina to get ready," I added.

This time it was Al who wanted to add something.
"Your Majesty---" But I interrupted him too.
"Are your Elemental Potions ready? Bring me the ice one."

"Wait, listen to us, Your Majesty," Eir finally decided to let his voice out.
"Are you sure you're ready for this?" They had caught on to my purpose.

"I am. Don't worry, I know my limit. I will not do anything beyond my ability." Then a wicked smile appeared on my lips.
"Besides... I need 'his' power to turn the Orcs and Minotaurs into dust."

My wicked smile made their blood freeze.

I turned around.
"I will be waiting at my office. Just tell me when the preparations are complete. We will go straight from there." Then I left.
