Scene change_____
In the Istarin empire,
"Dragon Emperor, come out, I am here to take your life." Standing right above the Dragon Palace, Walker spoke in a loud tone. He spoke so loud that his voice was heard even throughout the entire Azure city.
Walker is the descendant of the founding father of the Dragon Guild. He is one of the oldest members of the Dragon Slayer guild. Walker was the leader of this group. His task was to fight the Dragon emperor and end his life.
A few months ago, Walker had set his gaze on the Black Dragon King and the white Dragon King. Both Dragon Kings were quite popular and very powerful. Walker was planning on challenging either one of the dragon kings but before that could happen, the white dragon King mysteriously died. No one knows how the White Dragon King died. As for the Black dragon king, the Dragon Emperor Aditya personally killed the black dragon king and took over the entire Southern Fire Dragon Empire within a week.
'I have heard many good things and also bad things about Aditya. I don't care if he is the saint or if he is the evilest person on the planet. My aim is to kill every single dragon in existence. It is rumored that no one has ever managed to defeat Aditya. Today, I will defeat him and kill him and take his head with me as my trophy.'
Wearing the Silver-gold full-body armor that was made from Dragon bones, Walker waited for the Dragon Emperor's arrival. Walker held a bone sword. The Bone sword was engraved with powerful runes making the bone sword sharper and much more powerful than an ordinary bone sword. Not to mention that this Bone sword was created from the bone of an Origin Dragon.
Little did Walker know what he had done. His voice was heard by millions of residents living in the capital of the Istarin Empire. All the Istarin Empire's soldiers, Dragonians, and Dragon warriors who heard this erupted like a volcano. Especially the Dragon Warriors and the Dragonians, who had immense respect and admiration for Aditya. The Dragon Warriors and the Dragonians had a drop of Aditya's bloodline in them. To them, the Dragon Monarch is an existence that cannot be disrespected. No matter who the person is, they won't tolerate their Dragon Monarch being disrespected. For the sake of the Monarch, they won't hesitate to give up their life.
Walker did not recklessly enter the Dragon Palace. He can feel it. The dome-like barrier around the Dragon Palace is not strong enough to stop him. But Walker was clever and cautious enough to know that Aditya must have taken steps to prevent any 5-order from entering the Dragon palace. If Walker recklessly enters the Dragon palace, then he might get shot by powerful cannons or he might be trapped in some array. There was a rumor that the Istarin Emperor was a really good runemaster.
Walker and his team did not have to wait long as they suddenly felt the ground shaking. Everyone sensed thousands of Dragonians surrounding them. Powerful 4th-order Dragon Warriors heading in their direction.
"You got some nerves coming here and challenging our King." Walker's expression did not change. He looked down at the Dragon Warrior who was the guardian of the dragon Palace. It was his duty to make sure no 5th-order cultivator gets inside the Dragon Palace.
"So Aditya secretly had a Mid-5th-order lizard." Walker couldn't sense anything beyond the dome-like barrier. The barrier prevented him or anyone from sensing inside. Before he came here, he was told that the Istarin empire has a few beginner 5th-order Dragons.
Greenwood was one of the few Dragons who have chosen to follow Aditya for life. After getting a drop of Aditya's bloodline, he managed to evolve his bloodline and become a dragon warrior. His cultivation also increased from Peak 4th to beginner 5th-order.
Greenwood managed to impress Aditya. As a result, he was made the guardian of the Dragon Palace. Greenwood is the protector and also the gatekeeper of the Dragon Palace. Being able to stay inside the Green Palace was a blessing for Greenwood. He happily accepted the job. Normally Greenwood keeps cultivating. As a 5th-order magic beast, he doesn't need to eat or drink.
Even now he was cultivating but he had to stop as he had heard this arrogant man's words.
'It looks like one of them has managed to reach Mid-5th-order.' Being the guardian of the Dragon Palace, Greenwood has to stay inside the Dragon Palace all day long. He has been staying in the Dragon palace for months now. With the abundant resources that his majesty provided Greenwood and the dense mana inside the Dragon Palace, Greenwood managed to reach mid-5th order a week ago.
Greenwood did not lose his calm when he was called a lizard by Walker. Greenwood met a few young dragon slayers back when he was living in Silver Meadow Grove. Almost every single Dragon slayer that Greenwood has met was very prideful and arrogant. Dragon Slayers become arrogant after killing one or two dragons or wyverns. They began to think of themselves as someone above the Dragons.
Walker is also no exception. The only reason Walker hasn't died because of his arrogance is because of his clever mind and his sly tactics. This man is cruel, selfish, arrogant, cold-hearted, and indifferent.
"Lizard, go and call your lizard King. Today I am here to kill him." Just as Greenwood heard these words, the Dragon warrior lost his mind. His eyes turned red and his blood began to boil. Insulting Aditya was the only thing that Greenwood wasn't going to tolerate.
Also at the same time, the thousands of dragonians who had surrounded the members of the Dragon slayer guild erupted upon hearing Walker's words. "This bastard dares to insult our King. Let's kill every single one of them. Today you guys are not living this alive."
"We swear on the name of our Dragon Monarch, today every single one of you will die." Every single Dragonians roared in anger.
"Hmph! Stupid lizards, what makes you think that you guys will kill us? Is it because of your large number or is it because you can't see our strength?" Theo, the Peak 4th-order vampire snorted as he took out his twin bloody daggers. Theo had lost his family because of Dragons. His heart was full of hatred for Dragons. He had sworn on his dead wife and his dead daughter's name that he would kill every single dragon on the planet.
Die!!!!
Earth Spears!!!!
Thousands of earth spears rose from the ground and spread in every direction. Each spear was brown in color and was 5 inches thick and 1 meter in length. The spears headed toward the Dragonians at a very fast pace. Almost 90% of the Dragonians weren't fast enough to dodge the sudden attack. While other Dragonians were barely able to dodge.
However, before the attack could reach the Dragonians, a strong wave of wind hit all the earth spears and broke the spears.
Boooom!!!!!!
"It looks like we have an elven warrior." Walker gently smiled before he turned around and looked at the Goddess who was looking at him with an icy-cold gaze. Anyone could tell that the gentle goddess was absolutely furious.
The change in the Nature goddess's mood was also reflected in the sudden change in the atmosphere. The atmosphere around the Dragon Palace and the Azure city rapidly began to change. The clear sky darkened with black clouds. Strong cold winds blew from every direction. It was as if Nature has become the enemy of the Dragon Slayers.
"What can you possibly do against me? I admit I certainly wasn't expecting The lizard King to have a woman who is this strong and also this beautiful. But this is not going to change the outcome. Call the Lizard King, I want to end his life and then I will destroy the Dragon palace before everyone's eyes."
"Oh, really. I would like to see you try." Walker looked to his left to find a man in a butler outfit with Crimson wings standing in the air. Watson held a Peak 4-star sword in his hand as he coldly stared at Walker.
"Watson, you also come. Nice. Since everyone is here. Where is the main character? Is he sleeping or is he too scared to come out and face me?" Walker asked in a mocking tone. Facing two 5th-order powerhouses, Walker wasn't the least bit afraid. He felt excited when he thought of the looks all these people would have after he kills Aditya and then slowly destroys the Dragon palace.
"Aditya does not need to come to deal with problems like you. I can deal with you and your pathetic group alone."
"Hahaha! Such confident. From where do you get this much confidence when you're standing in front of a Peak 5th order? Or have you become delusional after staying with that lizard king?"
