Chapter 637: Starting Today, You Must Serve Me

Valley

Dadara was full of regret now. The summoning was his idea, and he’d done it himself. As the most powerful summoner in Blacklan Kingdom, he’d summoned countless creatures before. Though he’d failed sometimes, it had never been embarrassing.

But today, things were completely beyond his expectations. Blacklan Kingdom was in a crisis, and Troym was already at the city walls. As an important member of Blacklan, he volunteered bravely to use a ritual summoning spell that had been banned.

But it only succeeded halfway!

The summoned creature was very powerful—so powerful it stole their breaths. But they didn’t seem to be able to restrict the other… It was strange.

There was a head the size of a mountain before him. The mouth was wide open, revealing each tooth that was as sharp as a sword. Smoke came out of the thing’s nostrils. Dadara could vaguely see dark red flames flickering inside. This reminded him of an active volcano he’d visited with his tutor when he was young.

The other’s eyes shone with silver flames. Dadara couldn’t see the other’s eyes, but they were definitely waiting for his reply. He was forced to brace himself and reply, “Majestic dragon, it is I who summoned you.”

Snort. The dragon pushed air out of its nose. The air before its nose distorted visibly and the gust of air rushed out. Dadara, kneeling on the ground, rolled backwards.

Even a slight exhale is this powerful. Oh my god, did I summon the king of dragons? Dadara thought as he fell back.

It wasn’t that he’d never summoned a great dragon before. Actually, he’d summoned a demon dragon to fight for Blacklan Kingdom ten years ago. That dragon had been very powerful. It had been Level-7 and had been the ruler of the skies in the Fedaro Continent (what the natives called the realm).

But compared to this black dragon, the demon dragon was like a little chicken.

As the most prestigious master in Blacklan Kingdom, Dadara usually dressed in elegant clothing and used fancy carriages. He never had to do anything and was always high and mighty. It was the first time he was sprawled so pathetically on the ground. But he couldn’t care about that. He only wished that the dragon wouldn’t put its claw on his back… Seeing the claw that was many times stronger than his body, he knew that he would be flattened even if the dragon just placed it down gently.

Just as everyone was in terrified silence, Dadara heard a voice from above him. “You wish for me to defeat Troym’s army?”

“Yes…” Dadara was overjoyed. The Warriors nearby who were close to breaking down were slightly relieved. It seemed that things could still be negotiated.

“Oh?” Link snorted in dissatisfaction. Air came out of his nose again, making Dadara too fearful to move. Of course, the Magician couldn’t protest either.

Link’s actions weren’t breaking the contract. He was just breathing normally and didn’t hurt his summoner at all. The other was only affected because he was too weak. Thus, Link didn’t feel any reaction from the contract inside him.

However, his actions had still expressed his intent. He wasn’t happy about Dadara’s request. Dadara wasn’t stupid either. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have become a Master Summoner. Now that he had to protect his life, his mind whirred quickly.

Once the current pressing down disappeared, he said, “Majestic dragon king, you misunderstood me. I do hope that you can defeat Troym’s army, but I know that’s unrealistic. I can’t help it though… sniff, sniff. I just wish for you to save the kingdom I’m loyal to.”

As he spoke, Dadara became emotional. He really didn’t want the Blacklan Kingdom to be defeated. His heart felt a twinge, and his tears and snot came out. Sprawled on the ground, he started sobbing.

Behind him, King Morahan of Blacklan Kingdom was also in the army. Seeing Dadara, he couldn’t help but think, Ah, I didn’t think he was so loyal…is my kingdom really going to end?

Thinking of this, he forgot his fear too. On impulse, he walked out from the rings of guards. When he was around 150 feet before Link, he started regretting this. He didn’t think the dragon’s aura would be so scary.

But it was too late. Gritting his teeth, he knelt on the ground and copied Magician Dadara and cried, “Your Dragon Majesty, I beg you to save my kingdom! The people of Troym are cruel. I cannot let my people live under their rule!”

When he knelt, everyone in the valley also knelt down. It was such a sight.

But were the Troyms cruel? His words were nice. Link scanned the mountainous piles of corpses in the valley and found it ironic. However… had the contract been changed to saving the kingdom?

The contract’s content was very broad. Loosely, as long as the royal family didn’t disappear, it was alright if the so-called Troyms took over the capital temporarily. They could still get it back later.
