Reborn: I'm A Dragon Girl With An OP System

Chapter 464 Something Strange Part 2

"I think we should follow him," Grace spoke up. She was not wrong. We should follow him and figure out what he was planning.

"So much for a good sleep tonight." I sighed and grabbed Grace's hand. I then pushed the window open and jumped out. With a flap of my wings, we flew off in the direction that the man had gone in.

"That little bastard, making things difficult for no reason." We quickly found him as he stomped through the dead forest, still cursing his head off.

"He seems to be walking a well known path…." I whispered as we hovered silently overhead.

Grace nodded, and the two of us continued to follow after the man. He walked and walked until he finally came to a large mound of dirt with a large dead tree on top of it. Between the roots, I could just barely make out a cave entrance. The man walked right into the cave entrance, not even checking to see if anyone was following him. I guess no one would since this forest was not the nicest of places, but I did not understand why no monsters were here.

I lowered us and landed just outside the cave. I looked around and saw that there was a lot of foot traffic here. "Some kind of den?"

I was a little confused as to what kind of place this was, but I was not going to give up so easily just because the cave was an unknown place. I a cloaking spell on Grace and I before heading into the cave.

The cave was dark and damp. But after you entered and walked a little way, there were a few light crystals here and there, allowing one to see. The light was dim, but it was enough to at least find your way around.

Looking at the muddy ground, it was quite easy to figure out which way was which. The footprints from the man were still fresh, so even if we had lost him, we could easily still keep track of the direction he went in.

We went through many twists and turns, diving deeper into the cave. The muddy cave floor slowly turned to stone, but by then, I had already picked up the man's scent, so even if we could not see footprints, I could still follow which way he went.

"It should be here…. I can smell more than one person here." I frowned slightly since I felt a familiar presence here. "Grace get ready for a fight."

"Okay." Grace nodded and took out a sword. I did the same as we entered a large room. This room was different from the cave room before. It was polished stone and many different pillars rising up towards the ceiling. Not far away was a large throne that had a back that rose up way higher than any throne I have ever seen. And sitting on this throne was a man who had his chin resting on his hand as he looked down at the thirty or so people below him.

These people looked more like statues than people. They did not move at all, nor did they blink. They all kept their heads lowered as the man looked at them. Only the man from before was standing. And even he, when he walked up, knelt down before the man on the throne.

"My lord, I failed to secure a place. Without proper compensation, we can not get anything…. This world seems to run on a monetary system." The man spoke in a calm and clear voice.

"I see… So this money is something we need. What if I just take over the kingdom itself?" The man on the throne asked.

"I think this would be the best strategy, but with so many soldiers on their side, it will not be easy. We can start by taking over the small town. I think this would be the best bet. This way, we will have a base we can use." The man replied.

"Good, we will follow your pla…."

*Clap!* *Clap!* *Clap!*

I walked out and began clapping my hands. "A worm already wants to spread its wings?" I looked at all the people and sighed. Each one of these people was already taken over. It was no wonder that I felt this man was familiar. Because he was stronger than the others at this time, his parasite was much easier to detect.

"Who are you?" The man on the throne looked at me with vigilance.

"Me? I am just your friendly neighborhood dragon girl who just so happens to hate worms with a passion. Did you know? I like to rip them from their host and burn them slowly so that they feel nothing but pain until they die. The euphoric feeling I get when I hear the screams of their little bodies. The smell of their burnt flesh. It sends me to cloud nine." I said with a smile before tapping my foot and standing next to a young woman. I turned my hand into a large dragon's claw and crushed her head, grabbing hold of the parasite.

"What are you doing!? Let go of my kin right now!" The man on the throne yelled out as he stood up.

"Let this worm go? I planned to go fishing. I will let the fish nibble on it until there is nothing left. Don't you like to eat your hosts? It's the same thing, just the other way around." The reason I could kill this woman so easily was because the host was already long gone, unlike with the undead. I can not save a human in the same fashion. It was sad, but I could only kill them to get revenge for the host.

"I said, put my kin down. I will not say it again." The man on the throne was walking over, but I could tell he was being cautious. Just to check, I looked at his stats, and well…. He was much weaker than I had expected.

I smiled at the man before crushing the parasite in my hand, killing it on the spot. "I want to see what you will do."
