Chapter 200. Cold Interrogation I
Dragon King's Harem Chapter 200. Cold Interrogation I
"I know, but you should think about your safety first," I said worriedly.
She shook her head from side to side.
"I can't..." she whispered.
I exhaled in exasperation. A frown on my forehead.
"I don't understand why you are so stubborn about this."
"Forgive me," she said in regret.
Once again a long exhale out of my mouth.
"It's fine." I took a Mana Potion from my inventory. "Just promise me to take a rest after this," I said again without taking my eyes off her.
Without another word, I drank the potion without swallowing it. As my hand dropped the empty magic flask, I bumped my lips to hers, flowing the liquid from my mouth into her mouth. Her eyes widened in shock due to my sudden movement. So did the others, but I didn't care about it, instead, I deepened my kiss.
- Prang!
The empty flask shattered into pieces and disappeared. At the same time, the liquid rushed into her mouth. As she swallowed the liquid, I could see her gaze soften before she slowly closed her eyes.

Half an hour after General Kul's defeat, a battle horn sounded from a distance. It was a command to retreat. That sound made me realize that Uraugh already knew that General Kul had lost. After the orcs left, the dragons evacuated their injured comrades and brought them back to the fortress. Some brought the dead to be honorably cremated with my fire in the courtyard with a short ceremony and prayer. I presided over this ceremony alone.
I answered them with a simple nod.
Deftly, the guard opened the cell door for us.
We went inside. There wasn't much there other than the general who was trapped in the big iceberg. The chains bound the ice with the four pillars at the corners of that cell. It kept the ice stand and stayed in place.
The general himself was unconscious. From his status, I could tell he was still alive. Even if he was dying, I was sure he still had the strength to answer my questions. Well, I was not sure he would answer me since it was clear from his state I was not interested in sparing his life. It was just about whatever I would give him a quick death or a long and painful death.
Evelina and I stopped a meter in front of him, staring at the once gallant general. His face was pale and he barely breathed. It was a terrifying sight. It even made Evelina tremble.
The human side inside me should also be shaking due to the sight, but my dragon instincts told me otherwise. There was no pity in my heart, only hatred for what he did to Evelina.
"Wake him up," I commanded coldly.
