Chapter 681 - Too Weak

Aleesa and Ava looked at the figure in front of them. The Myth Rank Knight, who was supposed to be inside the city, was coming after them. Both looked at each other and nodded. "Let's end this fast."

Queen Ava put back the bow into her inventory and took out two short swords. She held the short swords backward. Aleesa did the same, putting her bow back into the inventory and taking out a long sword. The sword had the exact height as her.

"Never crossed my mind that we will fight together again after years, Sister." Ava smiled as she scanned the enemy in front of her. Aleesa had the same smile, "I am still fighting while you were assuming a position as a Queen. I hope your skill is not rusty and becomes a burden for me."

"Elven and Beasts? What's the meaning of this!? Why are you attacking the Kingdom? Didn't Gigante Forest agree not to step into the human's territory, and we did not meddle in Gigante Forest?" The Myth Rank Knight questioned the sisters.

"Are you dreaming, or what? We never had an agreement, and even if we had an agreement, it would no longer be valid since we were attacking the kingdom in the name of the Tang Empire." Aleesa sneered at the Myth Rank Knight. "Also, when did you come up with that ridiculous agreement? The human did not meddle in Gigante Forest? Then why do the humans keep coming to hunt the beasts?"

"Just ignore him. Why would you talk with this lowly human?" Ava frowned. "I bet that agreement was between the humans since they failed to invade our forest from time to time."

After saying that, Ava was about to make her move, but something appeared in front of her. "No! This is my prey! Don't take my prey from me." A flying golden lizard came out of his stealth and told the sisters to retreat. "Go back! I will fight him instead."

Ava did not know the Golden Dragon's existence within the Tang Empire, but Aleesa knew that. She often saw Wrath with Tang Shaoyang, but the Golden Dragon never showed himself to the outside. Only a limited number of people knew about the Golden Dragon's existence.

"What is this?" Ava looked at her sister before looking back at the Golden Lizard. "Do you know this lizard?"

"Ssssh!" Aleesa panicked slightly when her sister called Wrath with the lizard. If it was her, Wrath might not do anything since she was Wrath's Master's wife, but not with her sister, who was not related to Tang Shaoyang. "His name is Wrath, and he is not Lizard. He is the Golden Dragon." Aleesa quickly whispered to her sister.

After that, Aleesa turned toward Wrath with a smile. "Does my husband agree for you to join the fight? I think this fight is supposed to be for us to level up."

Wrath glanced back and pointed upward with his little hand. "Master agrees to let me fight against the Myth Rank Knight."

Aleesa, Ava, and The Myth Rank Knight looked up at where Wrath pointed at. Sure enough, they saw a dot in the sky, and Aleesa and Ava quickly identified the figure in the sky.

The Myth Rank Knight did not know the figure was, but from the two Elven's conversation with the Golden Lizard. He figured out that the figure must be their superior. 'That means we will win the battle once I take that man down!' With those thoughts in mind, The Myth Rank Knight used his Wind Elemental to fly.

However, Wrath intercepted him halfway. "You are too weak to fight against, Master. I am your opponent."

"Lizards are not supposed to fly in the sky like this. You should just stay on the ground!" The Myth Rank Knight summoned blade winds and surrounded Wrath with those blades.

"What did you call me? I dare you to repeat it!" Wrath's voice turned cold, and his body enlarged. Dozens of blade winds hit his golden scales, but it could not leave a scratch on his shiny scales. In no time, Wrath returned to his original size, thirty meters long Golden Dragon.

The Myth Rank Knight's eyes widened in shock as the giant creature opened his wing and looked down at him with its arrogant gaze. The Myth Rank Knight opened his mouth and closed it again. He repeatedly did that as he was lost for words to say. He knew dragons existed in this world since Kirin was a Dragon's descendant, but he thought such creatures only existed in the main continent.

'You don't have to panic!' The first thing he did was to cast the [Basic Detection] on the Golden Dragon. After the shock, a frown formed on his forehead as he found out the Golden Dragon was just Myth Rank. 'Does that mean I have a chance to kill the Golden Dragon?'

"I don't like the way you looked at me, punny knight." Wrath commented, and suddenly, his claw appeared before the Myth Rank Knight. The latter was not expecting that the giant creature would be this fast. He tried to dodge, but Wrath was just faster than him.

Wrath grabbed the Myth Rank Knight and dove to the ground. The Myth Rank Knight tried to break free from the grasp, but he quickly realized that the grab was too strong for him to break free. He tried to attack the talon with his Wind Elemental, but it was futile.

BOOM!

"Kuargh!" The Myth Rank Knight coughed up blood as his back was slammed onto the ground. He still tried to shake off the grasp, but nothing he could do in this situation.

As the dust settled down, The Myth Rank Knight's eyes widened in terror as he was facing the Dragon's mouth. The Golden Dragon opened his mouth as the crimson flame gathered in there. To be more exact, his face was inside the Golden Dragon's mouth, and the flame was just a meter away from him.

Swoosh!

The crimson flame shot toward his face.

Wrath pulled back and saw the headless body in his hand. "That's the punishment for calling me Lizard!" As he said that, he glanced at Ava. The latter noticed the Golden Dragon's gaze and immediately looked away.

"This is too weak. I thought Master said that The Myth Rank Human is stronger than the Myth Rank Beast, but he died just like that." Wrath muttered in a low voice before he returned to his small size and disappeared.

"You saved my life, I think." Ava took a deep breath and released it slowly to calm down. "But you never said anything about the Dragon to us. What's the meaning of this, Aleesa?" The Elder Sister furrowed her brow.

"Why would I tell you about the Golden Dragon?" Aleesa countered as she shrugged as if it was not something big. "Remember, I am no longer part of the Elven, Sister, and I am now part of the Tang Empire. Also, It does not matter if I tell you or not, right? We are on the same side now."

Aleesa shook her head and looked at the figure in the sky. "My priority is not The Elven anymore, but The Empire. I am not the Queen, but The Emperor's legal wife, so it does not make sense for me to reveal my husband's secret. Wrath is my husband's companion."

Ava did not like what Aleesa said, but again, it was the fact. 'Maybe because I just stepped down from my position.' She let out a sigh and looked at the flying figure. "You are right about that, but I am just surprised that you can change that quickly."

"The one who adapts faster will survive, Sister. That's how the world is. You just need to accept it, and you will quickly adapt to your new life and environment. Also, If the Empire falls, then the Elven will follow too. If the Empire is thriving, so does the Elven." Aleesa was telling her sister that her heart for the Elven Kingdom did not change. "So it's all the same, in the end."

*** ***

The brief Golden Dragon's appearance changed the flow of the battle quickly. The Revolution Army's knights saw their leader try to fight the enemy's leader but were killed instead by a Dragon. The Revolution Army's morale took a hit, and The Tang Empire's knights quickly took over control of the battlefield.

The anti-climax battle was over half an hour after the Myth Rank Knight died, and the Tang Empire captured their third city. By the time the battle was over, the sun was ready to set.

General Aleesa, General Goldien, and General Arsi gathered in the same building. They discussed whether to continue their march, or call it a day, and continue the attack tomorrow. General Arsi looked at the Golden Gator, and the Golden Gator looked at General Aleesa.

"I think we are done for today. What do you think, Marshal Alton?" General Aleesa looked at the door, and Marshal Alton had just entered the room.

"Three cities in one day, though it's slower than my prediction, I think we can call it a day. Giving our soldiers time for enough rest is not a bad option for future battles." Marshal Alton nodded his head and came over. He brought a map with him and opened it on the table. "Since we get to rest early, we launch our attack early in the next morning." He pointed at one city that was close to Braum City. "We will attack Orium City before the sunrise."

"Yes, Sir!" The three Generals answered at the same time.
