Book 6: Chapter 194

Kim Hajun stared at the procession of dragons and phoenixes with a blank expression on his face. Behind him, the human lords and their subordinates were also staring at the scene with slack jaws and wide eyes. All the phoenixes and dragons were lined up in two neat rows, the dragons on one side facing the phoenixes on the other.

Alright! Stella said from her spot at the head of the two lines, hovering in the air. Her chest was puffed out, and her hands were on her hips. There was also a fat grin on her face. You. Stella pointed at the dragon at the head of the line. You do know what to do, right? Were you listening?

Yes, the dragon said, mumbling its words.

And you know whatll happen if you mess up? Stella asked, her grin spreading even wider.

Yes, the dragon said, still mumbling.

Tell me, Stella said.

The dragon blinked. What?

Tell me what will happen if you mess things up, the fairy queen said, staring the dragon in its eyes despite being smaller than its eyeballs.

The dragon took in a deep breath. If I dont sincerely apologize to each phoenix by name, the dragon said and sighed. There will be a collective punishment delivered by Vur.

Right, Stella said and cupped her hand around her ear. And what does that mean?

If I mess up my apology, youll make everyone hate me, the dragon said.

Exactly, Stella said. And what else?

No one cares about that, Fern said, making a face. What we want is vengeance!

Stella let out a sigh and flew back into Vurs chest. Vur also let out a sigh as he climbed up, his already large body expanding once more.

Are we not even allowed to voice our opinions? Fern asked, taking a step back as Vur advanced towards the yellow dragon. Im not trying to start an armed rebellion; I just want to open a dialogue.

Vur blinked before shaking his head. No, he said and grabbed Ferns tail. Vur lifted the yellow dragon up with one paw. No opinions allowed.

Do you have to be so unreasonable? Fern asked.

Vur nodded. Great-gramps has a really cool title, Tyrannical Dragon Monarch.

A bad feeling welled up inside of Ferns chest. And?

I want tyrant in my title too, Vur said, nodding his head again. Thats whyVur squinted before whirling Fern around and slamming him into the groundyou have to listen.

Unreasonable Tyrant King, Fern said as shattered rocks slid off of his body.

No, Vur said. It doesnt sound good. He released Fern and walked back to his spot before tapping on his chest.

Stella flew out and stopped in front of the dragons and phoenixes with a smug grin on her face. You heard Vur loud and clear, she said. Were not asking you to do things; were making you do them. Now, hurry up and apologize to each other already!

Vur nodded. Once youre done, he said, were going to collect ingredients to have a delicious feast. Working together and eating together will help you bond.
