Mischievous Little Dragon!

Somewhere located in the Deadlands.

A man with a bald head was experimenting with a few skeletons soldiers, he had skin that looked dried out and withered. The corpse-like man gave a smiled that was uglier than a cry seeing the results of his work.

"Hahaha, finally, these blood iron skeletons are far more improved, my invasion on goa will become just that much easier." The man's hoarse voice was hard to listen to, and would easily cause pain to anyone that heard it.

"Boss, but it's useless for now, we can't break the formation around the deadlands that prevent the undead from passing through." The short stubby man by his side said somewhat sadly.

"You little fool, have you not been listening, you idiot? Once the corpses of those villagers have been sent over, we can use their bodies to work against the formation and destroy it!" The man smiled hideously and said coldly.

"Sir, how are supposed to do that? They're only good for turning into zombies or skeleton." The stubby man was confused as to how the dead bodies would affect the powerful formation around this land. If the formation wasn't around the deadlands, many undead type creature would have long ventured and invaded several different zones on Ashefall Island.

"Not only are short, but your common sense and knowledge also falls short!" He really wished to just kill this useless midget, but he couldn't kill him for certain reasons. "I plan to use the death energy from their resentment and hate to attack the formation, it might not destroy it right away, but it will become very weak over time." The man explained reluctantly, he wasn't sure if this idiot would process it.

The short stubby man stood there for a second, he seemed to be thinking of something. "Oh, I get it, hahaha! Sir is the smartest and strongest there is!" The stubby man jumped in joy with a strange twisted and ugly smile.

"Good, that know! The Temple of light is getting more and more arrogant, they even dared to summon heroes, what a scared bunch!" He had already gotten news from several other dark forces that were against the Warriors of light, so he was well informed.

This would only cause minor problems he thought, but he would still have to act much more carefully in the future while advancing. The corpse-like man stared at his new creation, he had just caught these adventures and turned them in powerful skeletons, he was satisfied with his new creation.

Suddenly, a man rushed into the strange and twisted laboratory that gave off a smell that may even make flies turn away. "You fool, you dare rush into my lab during an experiment? Do you want me to refine you into a corpse puppet!?" The man was instantly enraged seeing the armored man rush through his lab doors.

"Lord Necrit, quell your anger, I have urgent news to tell you, and it isn't good!" The armored man's voice was somewhat grave.

"What could be so bad or good, that it could top my important occasion?" Necrit looked fiercely at the armored man. If he gave him any unsatisfactory piece of news, he would surely kill him without a question. This caused the man in armor to shiver, feeling the killing spirit that had locked onto him.

"T-the vampires failed, they were discovered a killed!" The armored man said hurriedly under pressure.

"WHAT!? What did you say? Say it again!" Necrit was both stunned and angry hearing this, this had to be a joke!

"The vampires inside the hidden cave were discovered and killed. The cave is currently being investigated by several knights and even adventurers." The Armored man said slowly. He didn't want to repeat himself in fear that he might make this madman even angrier, in turn, taking it out on him.

Necrit was so angry that his face was changing into all sorts of colors. How could they fail? The illusion was so perfect, who could find such a place? The illusion could even prevent Ki and all sort of other energies from leaking out.

Necrit took a deep breath and calmed down, this would delay his plan greatly, but they couldn't stop them. "Pass on my order, I demand an answer from the count. His people failed me and he owns me a great deal." Necrit paused and continued "Send someone to investigate what happened, that place was guarded by several Vampires, how could they have all have been wiped out?

Vampires could easily flee when trouble was upon them, even he wouldn't be able to catch a low ranking vampire if they knew a few escaping skills. What he didn't know, was that the vampires had underestimated the intruder so badly that it caused them all to die before they could catch on to the enemy's true strength.

"Y-yes! Right away sir!" The armored man quickly left the scene, fearing that he might not be able to leave for good!

"Damn it! That damn count wanted me to curse some dryad, so he could take over that part of the forest. There's clearly something in that part of the forest he doesn't want anyone to know about!" Necrit wasn't stupid, that count wanted to eagerly get rid of some dryad, but he couldn't because she had some sort of protection against him.

Necrit's corpse-like eyes were cold, but when he looked at his new creation, they lightened a bit.

...

At this time, Vitiate had already entered his dungeon. He immediately went to the 22nd floor where he lived. Once he arrived, he was greeted by the dragon who caught wind of him, thus, she rushed over quickly.

"Haha, you can't stay out without coming back to the dungeon for one day, hmph!" The dragon snorted lightly seeing Vitiate return.

"This is my home, why can't I come back? Be a good dragon and go eat some grass or whatever you lizards eat." Vitiate smiled and walked towards the forest, ignoring the little scamp dragon.

"Hey, I don't eat grass, and I'm not a lizard!" The little dragon stomped in protest, but when she saw Vitiate leaving elsewhere, she felt annoyed being ignored, she swore she would make Vitiate pay one day. But after thinking about it, she decided to quickly chase after him.

At that moment, the void rip opened, and Lily appeared out of it!

"Ah, Master is back! Lily misses you!" Without warning, Lily landed on Vitiate's shoulder. He didn't understand why she would miss him, he was here yesterday.

"Haha, I miss you too." With a smiled he patted Lily's little head before walking deeper into the forest. The dragon caught up, and was walking by his side as well, she wasn't slacking herself, and learned a few new skills of her own.

"Why did you come back so soon, it's still morning time, right?" The little Dragon probed and asked.

"You already know that I'm making a shop inside that town in Goa, right? I need a few more things from here before going back." Vitiate bluntly said.

"Ah, I'm so bored here, let me come with you, it's nothing else to do here but eating and sleeping." The Dragoness said in a somewhat depressing manner.

Vitiate scanned her from head to toe, she had little horns coming out of her head. She also gave off a strong draconian aura that anyone would notice if she were to appear. "No can do, you have a tough time putting away those horns of yours, so you can only stay here." Vitiate refused to let her go with him.

He was new to this world, but he wasn't that ignorant about things here. If someone discovered he had a true dragon by his side, there would be endless trouble. Many would try to kidnap her or covet her away from him, this was a true dragon, who wouldn't want to steal it for themselves to tame?

"I knew you would say that, so I trained and learned a new technique from my passed-on memories just for this." The Dragoness patted and her nonexistent chest and said confidently.

"Oh, really? Let me see it then." Vitiate's interested was peaked, what could she have learned new?

With a mischievous smile on her face, her body flashed with a brilliant blue light and rushed towards Vitiate. He was surprised and tried to dodge, but this skill had locked onto him, so there was no escaping it.

Vitiate suddenly felt a cold sensation on his arm, the chilling sensation quickly halted as fast it came.

"Haha, it worked, it actually worked!" Vitiate suddenly heard a voice in his head and was stunned a bit.

"What did you do, little girl, spill it or else!" Vitiate asked, was she in his mind or something?

"Check your arm, and you'll get a better understanding of what I did." Her voice was still filled with arrogance, as she voiced out. Vitiate looked at his arm and saw a light blue dragon tattoo, it was giving off a powerful and chilling sensation.

He somewhat understood what was going on, this was her means of traveling with him. She was still enslaved to him, so no matter what, she couldn't hurt him.

"What is this skill, what is it called?" He never had tattoos, but this dragon tattoo looked rather good if he had to say so himself.

"Hmph! It's a new skill I learned called [Body Transmutation], it's amazing, huh? Yeah, I know, I'm cool like that, so there is no need to kneel and praise." If the Dragoness was in front of him right now, she would be holding her head high with a haughty and self-confident appearance.

"Wow, so you aren't a useless lizard, after all." Vitiate nodded and agreed that this was indeed an amazing skill.

"Not lizard! Dragon, I'm a dragon! You... just you wait for me!" The dragoness snorted and said nothing more. Vitiate silently agreed that she could now follow him.

"By the way, lily, how are the troops preparing? We need to raid the Shark lake soon within 4 days." Vitiate soon pointed his attention to other matters while still walking.

"Lily has been making sure everyone is prepared. The red lizard guy is annoying and won't shut up about us dooming ourselves fighting such creatures." Lily had used the dungeon to suppress this big mouth lizardman, he wouldn't stop blabbering.

"Haha, him again, huh? He'll be on the front lines of that battle, so make sure to set his position to march with the first wave goblins." Vitiate grinned evilly, this lizard still wanted to act rebellious, then he wouldn't let this red lizard man off.

"Hehe, Lily likes it when the boss is demeaning!" Lily chuckled softly, she couldn't wait to see the red lizardman's expression once he heard this arrangement.

Vitiate gathered the materials needed. The poisonous water from the lake in the Swamp Zone could be used to make poisonous splash potions, it was also good for making poison resisting potions. Vitiate could buy these potions off the system, but he would rather use the poisonous water to save points.

The gnomes were very busy making potions. As for the materials to make potions, weapons, armor, and other essential items. They were quite cheap on the system. The question was, did you have to skills to use the material to make something out of it? And if Vitiate had to answer this question, it would be no, he didn't have the skills, but others did.

Vitiate wanted to summon Nina, but when he heard that she was training vigorously, he left it alone. Nina was determined to get stronger, she had lost everything because she was weak, this was what she believed, but she was just a kid, what could she really do about it during those times?

He sighed inwardly, this world had too many factors and just about every race present. He had learned from the Phoenix that creatures like the Qilins even existed in this world! Before heading back to the mall, Vitiate seemed to have remembered something.

"Ah, I should let her know." With that, he warped to the first floor. This floor was still filled with traps, but none of them activated when Vitiate walked over them. He called one of the crows over that was sitting around the cave.

He gave it instructions and wrapped a small recording device around the crow's neck. Diana would be aware that this bird wasn't simple if she saw it, she would know who it's from right away once she saw it.

Diana easily discovered that something was off about these birds a long time ago, because no normal bird would dare fly near such a powerful volcano, and mainly because of her threatening force around it. What really gave it away was when she was fighting with the dragon, no normal bird wouldn't get close, in fact, they wouldn't bother to look from afar.

It was a dead giveaway.

"Hmph! Why do you have to warn her, let her fend for herself, she's just a stupid bird!" The dragon sneered thinking about Diana, she disliked phoenixes and other bird-like kin, but she mainly disliked phoenixes like most of her dragonkin.

"Because, she could be a potential ally, and she helped me quite a bit with some information. But this is mainly for us, what if we are discovered? Do you want to go out and fight as you are now?" Vitiate's voice was filled with disdain, she was nothing as she was now, until she gained the full inheritance of her Ice Dragon Race.

The Dragoness snorted softly but said nothing more. What he said made perfect sense to anyone who had a brain. Once Vitiate returned, he planned to deliver all these goods to the dwarf sisters and the gnomes, he wanted to open his mall tomorrow.

Once he returned to his mall through the portal behind the bookshelf, he heard knocking at his door. Once he opened it, there was a tall woman who was at his height, it could no one else but Adara.

"You finally opened the door? I was just about to break it down if you didn't answer for another minute." At this point, Vitiate had already put his cloak back on after coming from the dungeon.

"I fell asleep for a second, so I couldn't really hear much. Also, don't break down any door, or I'll turn into a janitor maid who will be cleaning bathrooms all day." Vitiate laughed seeing the change in her expression.

Adara gritted her teeth but didn't reply. "What have you been up to, where have you been all this time?" Vitiate hadn't seen her around, so he asked.

"I was in the training room, training. There is no room for a warrior to slack, so I have to keep up my training every day. And one day, I will defeat you and gain my freedom, so don't forget it." Adara looked at him with battle intent, she felt that she would surely defeat Vitiate one day with her talent.

"Wow, you really have big dreams for a maid who can only serve me." Vitiate eyes through his mask wondered over her body, her perky buttocks and curvy body would make many get lost in thought. Adara had a strong physique with beautiful tender and soft looking legs, that were actually capable of killing something brutally.

"Hmph! We'll see, I'll train harder for that day and we'll see at that time!" His words didn't break her confidence at all, in fact, it made her want to train even harder. "I heard there is a new worker that wasn't a slave, so I was going to check her out but I came by first to see you."

"Yes. I need to go check on her, you lead the way." Vitiate had to go back to the slave market today, he needed to buy that Dark elf. And with the money he 'earned' from the Fel'nir young master, it would be much easier.

Adara nodded and walked ahead, her buttocks bounced with each step she took. Vitiate himself couldn't help but stare. He was still a guy, after all, so despite him having many goals he had to focus on, beautiful women wouldn't go unnoticed by him.

"You have a big booty, do you mind if I grope and play with it for a bit?" Adara was shocked, she stopped and turned towards Vitiate. Vitiate was also shocked because even though it sounded like him, it wasn't him.

It was the Dragon imitating his voice and speaking!
