Two Better Than One (Ch.162)

The closer King Jian and Menarx got to the dungeons, the more potent the intensity of magic grew, just as the unpleasant sound grew louder in their ears.

While the hum of magic was clear and sonorous, the sound of dark magic was an ominous ringing that bounced off the walls of the keep.

For the dragons with their sensitive hearing, it was a piercing sound that brought along with it unpleasant memories of their ancestry and the centuries when they were susceptible to magic and preyed on.

King Jian stormed down into the dungeons, Cassian and Kirgan had both met with them halfway and so all five dragon lords arrived Menarx's district at the same time.

The place tagged 'Lord Menarx's district' was a section of the dungeons where the most hardened criminals were remanded to be seen to by Menarx in person.

These kind of criminals were those who had committed the gravest offences and yet were willing to die before they made any confessions.
