17 Rekim (1/2)
”According to the raven, his highness the 4th Prince Rekim Draco should be arriving any minute now.” Andre announced to the group of soldiers and attendants waiting at the gate. Uther, who was standing next to Andre, remained silent.
”The 4th Prince has a very low temper, do everything as I have said, and you won't antagonize him. If by any chance you do make a mistake, I will send your families my condolences.” Andre continued as the soldiers all did a discernible gulp.
”Sir, would you like to add something.” Andre turned to Uther and whispered.
”Sir, you are still the leader of these men, it would be better if you were in your draconian form.” Andre said as he stared at Uther's slim humanoid physique.
Uther looked at Andre with his eyebrows raised, and rolled his eyes.
”You know sir, things would go a lot easier now that you and the princess are on the same side.” Said Andre, not taking Uther's attitude at face value.
Just as Andre was about to continue, the surrounding air vibrated, followed by a rumble in the earth.
Uther, who was trying his best to ignore Andre, looked into the distance, and saw a figure riding the wind.
Uther knew what it was, he had been to the capital to attend the royal academy, and had personally seen the crown prince arrive on his Royal Chariot.
However, this chariot was not pulled by winged horses like the one used by the crown prince, instead it was mounted on top of a cloud Komodo. Cloud Komodo's are massive Spiritual beasts. They are descendants of black dragons, and even have the possibility, of ancestral evolution during the avatar realm.
All descendants of dragons are haughty, and are very difficult to tame. However, they have an inclination to be close to the Draco Royal Family, as the bloodline of the azure dragon is important to them.
The Komodo rode the clouds, its roar caused the air to pulse, and as it touched down in front of the camp, it whipped out its long tongue, rolling it around the nearest soldier, devouring him whole.
Andre and the rest of the soldiers all gulped. ”Level 29, peak incarnation realm, King Han sure likes to play favorites.” Andre whispered to Uther, with his eyes glued on the beast.
The Cloud Komodo's actions set everyone ablaze, but no one took any action. Even Andre remained standing, as if nothing happened.
Andre stared at the beast, several droplets of sweat rolling off his forehead. He looked over at Uther, expecting him to have a serious look, but instead he was greeted with a light smile.
Uther looked at the Massive Spiritual Beast, he could feel it, the dragon blood flowing through its veins.
Just as the Komodo whipped it's tongue out again at another soldier, a dark flame appeared in front of it. The flame latched itself onto the beasts tongue like a sticky fluid. The Komodo started to beat its tongue on the sand to put the fire out, but the dark flame only intensified.
”Take back your flames Uther, Modi was only having some fun.” Said a voice as the doors on the mounted chariot opened and a figure stepped out.
Uther waved his hand, and the dark flame dimmed out. ”Your Highness, if this pet tries to satisfy its taste for draconian flesh again, I may have to indulge myself and taste some cloud Komodo. ” said Uther as he looked at the figure of the 4th Prince Rekim Draco.
”It seems your failure to bring me the artifact, and your subsequent demotion has not affected your attitude.” Said the 4th Prince as he stepped down from the Cloud Komodo.
”There, there, don't worry Modi, I will teach him a lesson for you.” Said the 4th Prince as he rubbed his hand on the beast's chin.
The 4th prince turned his head to look at Uther, their eyes met.
Andre sensed the tension, but before he could say a word, the figure of the 4th prince, who as already in his draconian form, vanished.
He appeared right next to him and Uther. ”Let's see if your body martial path has caught up with your spiritual path.” Said the 4th Prince as his right fist rushed towards Uther.
Uther didn't try to dodge, he simply reached out with his right hand, and grabbed the 4th Princes Fist. The impact of the punch made the ground rumble, which caused Andre to lose his footing and fall flat on the ground.
”2nd stage of body tempering, the desert has treated you well cousin. You didn't even need to go into draconian form.” Said the 4th Prince, as he took his arm back, rubbing his knuckles.
”You as well my Prince, your bones have already been tempered. With your current strength, you should be a match for anyone below the avatar realm.” Said Uther nonchalantly, taking his hand back.

”Your highness, that was quite a show of strength. I'm lieutenant Andre Severs at your service. I have prepared your tent with all of your requirements, and I have also prepared a stable for your magnificent Spiritual Beast.” said Andre as he got up, and approached the 4th Prince.
”Lead the way, lieutenant.” Said the 4th Prince, his eyes never leaving Uther.
”Cousin, can you take Modi to the stables, my last stable boy got eaten. Also make sure to feed him some meat. There should be some humans in your camp, then again, some useless draconian soldiers should also be fine.” Said the 4th Prince as he made his way towards Andre.
