Chapter 467: Vassago, The Accursed 2
“You...you really are coming!” Vassago whispered as he regained himself and looked at Aeron, his shock hadn’t yet subsided.
One has to know, that he had been tormenting the dragons for almost five years, having stated what he wanted before the battle even started. Yet Aeron had remained quiet through the five-year duration, making no move at all. Just like Aeron had said, it had taken him over three years for him to have planned this event of just being able to show up before him.
And now, he finally made his decision. So, suddenly, without much of a change in his expression at all. Even though that was what he had started the war for, he couldn’t help but feel uneasy about Aeron’s relaxing state.
“You’ve gotten yourself your deal. I expect you to be happy. How come I only see horror flashing in your eyes...” Aeron asked with the same listless eyes as the malevolent grin appeared on Vassago’s face.
“I have released all of your people. They are all no longer under my control. Now, I’ll be waiting for your part of the deal. See you soon, Aeron...” Vassago said and in the next second, the body of the messenger fell forward towards Aeron who caught him in his hands before he could fall face flat onto the ground, being the first time he had had to stand up from his throne.
“Immediately, blue lights flared brightly from his palms coating the messenger in a blue barrier as the core present in Ophir’s hands suddenly moved away and floated towards Aeron who caught it before inserting it into the man’s chest.
Immediately, he flared out with even a brighter essence light, and to the amazement of everyone present in the room, they watched as the gigantic hole present in the messenger’s chest rapidly healed up and in the next second, his once dead core began beating powerfully and he slowly regained his breath and color as his grey scales brightened up once more.
Grey light flared out through the room as a bright flash of light illuminated the entire cave area and the messenger stood up from the hand of his king, his hands moving to his chest which seeing the hole he had dreamed of suddenly having closed up, and immediately he got onto a knee, head bowed in respect.
Once combined with Aeron, he would possess the power to make all of us go extinct. Of course, it is easy for him to let all of our people go in an instant because it would be even lesser than an instance once his plan goes his way.” Ophir barked out at Haakon who sat down on his seat and chose to remain silent.
He knew well his colleague was in all way right. Vassago was truly a terrific enemy!
“And you think I won’t be able to defeat him? Is that what you think, Ophir?” Aeron asked, now staring at Ophir.
“If someone asks me if there lies a person in all of existence being able to defeat you in a battle while being at the same cultivation stage, I would say such a person has not been born yet, not even our ancestral dragons can hope to defeat you if they were at the same cultivation base as you are. But you know well as I do, that Vassago does not fight physically.
He is a being so old; he had become elemental and remained undying. Physical strength alone is not enough to defeat such a person. And that is what you excel at best. You don’t excel in the battle of the mind at all, Aeron. That is your weakest point and your opponent’s strongest point. If you fight him, I’m afraid you’ll be fighting a losing battle, my king...” Ophir analyzed as another bout of silence enveloped the place, before they all turned their attention to the golden-called figure sitting on the seat, having said no words at all...
“What do you think, Golden Emperor?” Aeron asked as the golden-scaled man, Vornek’s father, opened his eyes.
“We Will Fight!” He declared much to the shock of everyone present in the room.
“Are you sure? Raymond? You really choose to fight?” Ophir asked in shock as Raymond slowly stood up from his seat.
“He has shown us just what terror he is capable of doing. Now, it is time we show him the terror of us dragons. Even if we all ended up dying in this war. We will make sure till his death, the memories of our battle forever haunt him in his dreams!!!”
