Chapter 1610 - Madness (3)” (1/2)
While the twins were busy enjoying themselves here on this serene mountain top, First Elder was more into contemplating the fate of their kind and the future it beholds. But the quiet times wouldn’t last for in the next moment of his long thought process came a huge draconian roar that rocked the air far and wide, reaching even their location that’s devoid of civilized settlements.
“It’s Princess Dragony’s cry!” First Elder thought after jumping down from the boulder in which he’s perched, “What could have happened to cause Her Highness this much grief? This won’t do, I must locate her immediately!”
She is the queen’s goddaughter, if anything happens to her while under my watch then I won’t be able to face the queen anymore.
Taking to the sky to swoop over to the twins’ spot: “Winger, I’m leaving you in charge here, protect the princess and prince while I’m not around.”
Swinging his head around, Winger didn’t need to guess on the reasoning for he too heard the cry: “Is it to do with that dragon roar?”
“Yes, you’re correct. I must leave now so I can’t explain. If the queen and king return then take them both back to the Demon Realm. His Majesty will know what to do if I don’t return in time.” Dropping these orders down, the old demon elder didn’t say more and rushed in rapid pace to find the dragoness.
……
Back over in the city, a grave scene has taken hold of this settlement. Those who aren’t strong enough or fled at a much earlier time have mostly died by now. They are very scared of the young dragoness who’s clearly not in the right mind.
“You’re never going to find your mother and prince brother in this lifetime, hahaha!” One of the more frightened defenders couldn’t bear the intense pressure anymore and began to laugh maniacally, “They’re all dead, that’s why, they’re all dead!”
The others remaining were all immensely shocked by their comrade’s outburst. They understood why one of their own would lose themselves like so, after all, the other girl had started the attack without any warning and kept insisting they tell her where that mother and prince brother was. And if they refused, she would charge at them and smash everything in sight. However, there remains a pattern to this so the last of them could still contend with the fact, but now… Ha, one should never provoke someone that’s already walking on thin lines in their head, otherwise it would only cause more harm!
And sure enough…
When the person’s words came out, the young lass’s iris diluted into a unfocused haze, the sounding cutting off from her world with only the sound of heartbeat thumping.
It’s a very rhythmic sound… but a knock on her last strand of reasoning as well.
Dead?
