Chapter 348 He Is an Interesting Dragon
"Damn beasts, don't run!"
"Fight us, cowards!"
"Assholes, come back here."
Several troops chased Ace and his subordinates.
Ace and his subordinates had destroyed the gate and killed many soldiers, so they wanted to kill them so badly.
"Stop! Don't chase them!" Finley stopped them from chasing Ace. "Come back here and check the other soldiers."
They stopped running and did what they were told because Finley was their king.
As Finley was looking in the direction where Ace was leaving, two soldiers carried Mayor General Rory's corpse.
"Your Majesty, Mayor General Rory is dead." The blue-haired man said after placing Mayor General Rory's corpse in front of Finley.
"What?!" Finley said in surprise.
When Finley was still in a state of shock, two city guards brought Colonel Luke's corpse before him.
"Your Majesty, Colonel Luke is dead." The red-haired man city guard said.
Finley shifted his gaze from Mayor General Rory's corpse to Colonel Luke's corpse.
'They are dead?'
Mayor General Rory and Colonel Luke were powerful awakeners, so he was shocked when he found out that they had died.
"Your Majesty, Lieutenant Colonel Jayden is dead too." the green-haired soldier said after placing Lieutenant Colonel Jayden's corpse in front of Finley.
Finley could not control his emotions anymore.
He lost Colonel Nolan when he gave Colonel Nolan a mission to conquer Nightshire City and now, he lost three powerful subordinates.
'Damn beasts!'
He was breathless with anger.
"Your Majesty, please control yourself." Asher did not want Finley to lose control in front of his people because he was a king.
"Take the injured ones to the headquarters and treat them quickly." After saying that, Finley walked away because he was afraid that he would lose control of himself later.
"Understood, Your Majesty." They answered in unison.
----
Ace was currently in the forest with his underlings. He praised Silvia and the others because they could kill Colonel Jayden.
Of course, he also praised his other underlings because they successfully completed their mission again.
"Good work, everyone." Ace stated.
"I'm so happy today. I killed many humans earlier."
"Me too. I killed a lot of humans today."
"Leader, are we going to cause trouble in that place again tomorrow?"
"Leader, I want to kill humans again."
One by one, Ace's underlings voiced out their happiness.
When Ace was about to say something to them, Fyre and the others arrived.
"Boss, we have returned." Fyre said happily.
"How is it?" Ace inquired.
"Of course, we have completed our mission, boss." Fyre answered instantly. "Boss, I also killed their leader earlier. I killed her in a short amount of time."
"Oh? Who is she?" Ace threw another question at Fyre.
"She was a mature woman." Fyre, who was in a human form, touched his chin. "If my memory isn't playing tricks on me, her subordinates called her Captain Lola."
"Oh, a captain?" Ace was pleasantly surprised by the good news because that meant Fyre had just killed a high-ranking person. "Good job, Fyre."
"Thank you, boss." Fyre felt like his feet barely touched the ground when Ace praised him.
'Haha. Boss praises me.'
He smiled happily.
Shortly after that, Hyzi and the others arrived.
Like before, Ace was pleasantly surprised when he found out that Hyzi managed to kill Captain Daniel.
He did not expect them to kill five important people in just a day.
Due to how happy he was, he felt like the goddess of Luck was on their side.
"Boss, are we going to cause trouble in that place again tomorrow?" Fyre asked curiously.
"No." Ace gave an honest answer.
"Why?" Fyre inquired.
"I want to recruit more beasts. After that, we will go on a war with them and take their kingdom." Ace could not wait to kill Finley, so he wanted to start the war immediately.
"I agree, leader." Adra stated.
"I agree too." Calne added.
"Good! Let's start recruiting more beasts tomorrow." Ace uttered.
"Un." Calne and the others nodded their heads.

Framingburns Forest, Aya's Territory.
Aya was currently talking with her underling in the main hall. She was sitting on her throne while her subordinate was standing before her.
Even though she had refused to be Ace's follower, she was interested in his dream to build a kingdom for magical beasts.
For this reason, she sent one of her subordinates to follow Ace in secret.
"I see." Aya said after hearing everything. "By the way, did he notice you?"
"Yes, my queen. However, he did not do anything to me and pretended as if he knew nothing." Aya's subordinate responded.
Like Aya, her subordinate was a gorgeous lady.
However, she was not from the nine-tailed fox race like Aya because she was from the peafowl race.
Her name was Zara Marsh, a 4-star magical beast.
Aya had two trusted subordinates, and Zara was one of them.
"Oh? It seemed like he had expected that I would send someone to monitor him. Interesting." A seductive smile appeared on Aya's face. "What is his next plan?"
"He plans to recruit more beasts because he wants to start the war immediately." Zara responded.
"I see." Aya uttered, "You can go back to his place now."
"Understood, my queen." After saying that, Zara disappeared.
Zara had a unique skill.
That unique skill allowed her to go to a far place in just seconds.
However, there were two conditions for this.
First, she must have been there before, and lastly, she must have left a seal on that place.
Zara had left a seal on Ace's base so she could return in just seconds.
'He is talking with his followers.'
She walked into the midst of his followers.
Of course, Ace noticed her, but he did not do anything or say anything to her.
'It seems like she has just met Aya. That skill is so amazing. It makes me want to have it.'
Actually, he did not know Zara's skill completely.
He only knew that Zara could disappear and appear in just a second. In his view, her skill were like those of a ninja.
'I hope Aya will change her mind later.'

Royal Palace, Meeting Room.
Six people were in the meeting room. Like the meeting room in the city guard headquarters, it was huge and luxurious.
It was as if the room was built to impress someone, not as a place to discuss something important.
A big round table with ten chairs was placed in the middle of the room and countless magnificent decorative patterns seemed to completely fill the rest of the room.
Finley was currently talking with the heads of two big families.
Actually, there were five big families in Xiriel Kingdom: Fraser, Wilson, Morgan, Steward, and Holmes.
The Holmes family had disappeared from the world, so only four were left.
Finley only talked with the heads of two big families because the Morgan and Steward families refused to help him.
They knew what had happened to the Holmes family, so they refused to help him. They even left the Xiriel Kingdom because they did not want to become the second Holmes family.
They decided to go to other kingdoms because Finley was no longer reasonable person.
"Your Majesty, we will help you fight these magical beasts." A mature man with red eyes uttered.
The name of the mature man was Draven Fraser, the patriarch of the Fraser family.
After Finley invited him to the meeting, Draven went straight to the royal palace. He did not go alone, as his personal bodyguard was with him.
Like him, his bodyguard was an awakener at the Grandmaster rank.
His name was Neil.
"When are we going to attack them, Your Majesty?" a blue-
haired man uttered.
The name of the mature man was Kian Wilson, the patriarch of the Wilson family.
Like Draven, Kian also brought his bodyguard with him.
His name was Julius, an awakener at the Grandmaster rank.
"We need to prepare everything first." Finley told them that their opponent was a dragon and he had many powerful followers, so they could not act recklessly.
"A dragon?" Draven and the others said in surprise.
"I lost three important subordinates several hours ago, so we must plan everything carefully because I believe that dragon has many powerful followers." Finley did not want to make a mistake in a war.
"I see." Kian uttered.
As Finley was talking with Draven and the others, one of his subordinates entered the meeting room.
"Your Majesty, the lord of Freyfall city is calling." His subordinate uttered.
