Chapter 183.  The War Has Begun III

Dragon King's Harem Chapter 183.  The War Has Begun III

"No way…" General Dravis muttered in disbelief. His shock was clearly evident in the tone of his voice. His spies just returned two days ago. They reported that only General Guillotine's assistant and his troops were there. They even say the general was returned because something happened in Dragon Cross City.

He and the Minotaur king thought the dragon king's condition was getting worse, that's why the Minotaur king thought this was the right time to attack the dragons. But how did things suddenly change in an instant? Not only did General Guillotine return, but the dragon king also joined the battle.

'Wait… is that really the dragon king? Or is it just Guillotine's ploy?' thought General Dravis. But even that was a tactic. What for?

The dragons had already won their first strike and destroyed Xinrax's 'brilliant plan'. Without the dragon king, even with this horrific sight, the Minotaurs' morale would have fallen drastically. So General Dravis knew there was something the dragons were hiding, but he didn't know what it was.

Either way, due to the drastic change, General Dravis decided to step down, at least until he found out the reason. Pushing the enemies in such circumstances would only end in vain. Not to mention he just wasted his soldiers' lives.

But first, he had to report it to the Minotaur king. Since the tunnels and everything was the king's plan. Not to mention Xinrax had agreed with the Orc King.

He knew he was supposed to use a messenger, but this was an emergency case so he decided to use his Magic Messenger. General Dravis stretched out his hand. His palm gave off a yellowish glow before it turned into a mole that leaped and plunged into the ground quickly. That would send a message to the king quickly.

Didn't stop there, he turned to the messenger by his side.

"Report what you see," he said as he pointed at the dragon king in the distance. It was a simple command that was enough to prove his report.

He knew Xinrax still held a grudge against him. Xinrax didn't believe in Dravis and had always considered him a threat since Dravis had royal blood. He was afraid that Dravis would usurp his throne someday. That's why he demanded Dravis give his loyalty to him once Xinrax ascended the throne. Something the kings almost never do due to their ethics.

"Yes, General," said the messenger and he left.

Then Dravis turned to a soldier by his side.

"Order them to retreat!" he ordered firmly.

His voice startled the soldier who was stunned in shock due to the one-sided slaughter.

"But what about the king's orders, General?" asked the soldier in a stammering voice. The soldier knew that General Dravis wanted to give his best for his kingdom and his soldiers. But this morning, the king had given his orders that they would go all out today and victory was absolute.

General Dravis turned to him. He looked at the soldier full of intimidation.

"Is there anything we can do to fix this?" His anxiety and anger were evident. He didn't know for whatever reason. He didn't help himself but was mad at the king, his brother. If it weren't for Xinrax greed, his soldiers would not have died in vain on this battlefield.

The soldier looked at the battlefield with a sad look, burning his memory with the battlefield that was no different from the Minotaur's death field before he shook his head from side to side.

"No, general," he said in a gloomy tone.

"Then, do what you should do!" replied General Dravis as he returned his gaze to the battlefield.

Without a reply, the soldier blew the battle horns loudly.

- DUUUUU!!!

That sound startled all soldiers. All of them stopped as they turned to the source of the sound, including the dragons.

"Pull back! Pullback!" The Minotaurs' shouts came from all directions. They turned and ran quickly to retreat since the dragon had already destroyed their battle formation and their plans.

But of course, the dragons didn't just let the Minotaurs go. Some of them chased them on foot while others decided to go all out by changing into their true form and hunting the minotaurs like how a real dragon should do.

The Dragons grabbed some of the minotaurs with their claws before they threw the minotaurs mercilessly. Some bit the minotaurs and ripped their throats apart before they tossed the corpses away. And some let out their fire breath, burning the minotaurs before eating them.

Even the Minotaurs' beasts did not escape the dragons' attacks. Some of the beasts had collapsed and could only groan in pain or writhe on the ground. Their blood dripped, soaking their skin and creating red puddles under their bodies. Some desperately fought to defend themselves, but there was little they could do but scream in pain and beg for the dragons' mercy.

Out of frustration, some Giants took some huge stones or corpses and threw them at the dragons or the fortress. But it was nothing compared to the barrier that protected the fortress. None of them could penetrate it. While some dragons simply transformed themselves into their true form and flew away before the huge boulder hit them. That's all easy for the dragon tribes since even though their humanoid forms were smaller than the Minotaur, their real bodies were much bigger.

It was so chaotic and General Dravis couldn't do anything. What he could do was order his troops to retreat quickly, without looking back or caring about their comrades. It was cruel, but it was better than losing everything.

As General Dravis' eyes fell on the dragon king who just stood there and watched all this from a distance, the question popped up in his head again. Was that really the dragon king?

'I have to send my spy to see what's going on,' he thought.
