Chapter 181

It chafed Avion that he couldn't play with his buddies or impress his girl with his skill. From the sounds of it, these daecroc things were the bomb to fight. I so would have kicked some reptile ass.

The daecrocs escorted the remaining slavers to the prison cells and then withdrew to their ship, a massive vessel parked in a hangar bay. Once they loaded it with livestock, which Seth declared "the ugliest, hairiest smelliest beasts evah!" the lizard men departed.

Aramus didn't like it. "Damn it, and here I was looking forward to sparring with some of them later."

"Maybe we should have kept a few to play with."

"Boys and their pet lizards," Anastasia teased.

"I, for one, am glad they're gone," Riley announced. "They didn't smell too good."

Only Avion asked, "How come they're abandoning ship so easily?"
