Dragon King's Harem Chapter 68. Restless Wyvern II

The sound of splashing water mixed with Jyne's giggling sound came from the river as she splashed some water on Evelina who had just taken off her shoes and sunk her feet into the calm shallow river. Reflexively, Evelina's hand went up to protect her face from the water.
"Jyne!" scolded Evelina with a frown. Which was answered with another giggle from Jyne.

"Catch me, Evelina!" said Jyne before splashing some more water at her again and running away. Finally, Evelina decided to go after her. Just like Jyne, Evelina's hand was occasionally splashing the water on Jyne. Their giggling sound rang out between their small shrieks. They decided to get used to calling each other by their names since in the future they would have to serve the same king.

Meanwhile, Eir packed our things into our bags as we waited for our Yegauns to finish their lunch. While I floated above them, my eyes swept around the place to make sure there were no aggressive monsters as well as looking for the red Wyvern once more since we didn't find that creature anywhere once we arrived at that place half an hour ago as if it had disappeared like smoke.

Occasionally, I whistled, trying to communicate with that creature but there was no answer. This was impossible since Wyvern's anger shouldn't disappear that easily.
'That Wyvern is so weird. Did something happen to his habitat?' Draconis territory was vast and most of it had warm temperatures so it was difficult to detect where that Wyvern was coming from.

A breath escaped my mouth as I flapped my wings to descend slowly. My eyes fell on Jyne and Evelina who were enjoying themselves at the river. On the positive side, since the Wyvern disappeared, Jyne and Evelina were able to play around in the river.

As my feet landed, I walked over to our Yegauns who were busy chewing chunks of monster meat in their mouths, leaving the bones and the heads behind. Blood was on their mouths and sharp teeth. Even though they were carnivores, feeding Yegauns were not difficult since they could eat any kind of monster except plant type. All we need was to kill a few small level monsters to feed them. We also hadn't touched our food supply yet since I found a few Green Rabbits around here. So rather than ate some boring bread type food, I used my Telekinetic to catch them. Combined with Eir's swordsmanship to skin them and his Firebolt skill to cook them, we could enjoy roasted rabbits as our lunch. Well, since Eir and I were dragons, actually, we could eat it raw but for etiquette reason, we chose to go with Evelina and Jyne's tastes.

"Everything is ready, You--- I mean, sir," said Eir as I approached.

"Good." I turned to Evelina and Jyne.
"Evelina, Jyne. Let's go," I shouted.

As soon as they heard my voice they turned to me.
"Yes, sir," they answered. Then they came out of the river, squeezed their clothes to dry them and put on their shoes.

We got on our mounts and pulled the reins, leading our Yegauns into the woods near the river.
"I will lead the way and Eir will guard us from behind. Make sure you don't separate from me and pay attention to your surroundings. We will pass this forest as fast as possible," I said. With my Dragon Vision, I could check our surroundings better.

After answering me with a nod, we kicked the sides of our mounts and moved into the forest.

The rustling sounds mixed with the hooves of our Yegauns rang out as we pierced through the bushes and jumped over several large tree roots that were sticking out of the ground. The beautiful river view with the calm meadows around us soon turned into a dim forest with big and tall trees. The branches and the trees' leaves were dense, so the sunlight couldn't penetrate them. The thick bushes around us seemed to hide dangers and the forest ground was slightly covered by moss, so we had to be careful.

I spurred my Yegauns, my eyes kept on watching the monsters who had a much higher level than mine, lurked around us. Even though I was not afraid of them, if it wasn't necessary I didn't want to fight them in this forest. If we were on the fields, I wouldn't hesitate to clear them up. Moreover, I could only rely on my fire and earth elemental for my magic skills, the most avoided type of elemental skill for hunting in the forest. Since the light from the fire and the movement of the earth would only make the other monsters angry. The elemental skills that were commonly used in the forest were Ice, Shadow, Death and Blood. Because those skills were usually killed silently. Occasionally, I glanced back, making sure Evelina and the others were following me.

As time passed, I realized the monsters in the forest had already noticed our presence and were moving towards us. I concluded this since the monsters approaching us were getting more and more. Although many of them just stood still and watched us pass, it was only a matter of time until one of them jumped up and attacked us. I raised my hand and moved it in a circling motion, telling the others to get ready with their surroundings. While my attention remained on the front.

'Adrenaline Surge, Dragon Armor, Power Boost, Accelerate.'

[SPD: 120+60+120]
[Time remaining: 14:56]

I decided to use my skills since I noticed the two big green snake-shaped monsters that hid on the big trees ahead of me. Their shape was similar to the Ruthless Rattlesnake except that their scales were green. And instead of ears that were shaped like broad maple leaves, they had frills that shaped like a bunch of palm leaves on their heads.

[Name: Green Pythoros ]
[Level 51]
[Type: Brute]
[Element: Earth]
[Speed: Normal]
[HP: 765/765]
[Mana: 167/167]
[ATK: 405]
[M.ATK: 146]
[DEF: 135]
[Skills: Sharp Tails, Poison Spit, Poison Fangs, Deadly Wrap, Speed up]

Just what I expected, as I entered their range, they used their Poison Spit on me. But before the poisonous liquid from their fangs reached me, I used my Mana Barrier.

[A barrier has been formed.]

My barrier prevented those poisons from reaching me as an announcement popped up.

[Green Pythoros' Poison has hit your barrier, mana barrier energy 3/4.]
[Green Pythoros' Poison has hit your barrier, mana barrier energy 2/4.]

At the same time, I used my Mana Weapon and launched my dual swords at one monster. While my spear and my sword moved to the other. I couldn't use my guns and bazooka here since their sounds would alarm the others. Before they made a sound or made another move, I waved my hand and those weapons separated the two monsters' heads like scissors cutting paper.

[You have cut a Green Pythoros for 628.] X2
[You have cut a Green Pythoros for 625.] X2

Two loud rustling sounds came as the monsters' heads landed on the bushes under the tree followed by a rain of blood from those monsters' necks.

[All enemies have been defeated!]
[Level Up!]
[You are now Level 48. HP +50, Mana + 20, ATK and MATK + 5, DEF and SPD +2]

[ATK: 315]           [M.ATK: 315]
[SPD: 124]            [DEF: 124]

Our Yegauns moved forward quickly as those monsters' bodies slipped off the trees and fell.

But just as we were moving for a few minutes, a roar accompanied by strong winds came from above us.
"Ggggrraaaaahhhhh!!!!" That wind pushed the leaves and branches that covered us, exposing us from the sky and illuminating our dark path with sunlight. In an instant, the monsters around us fled or hid.

I looked up and saw the Wyvern was flying in the sky restlessly. And from his head that was aiming at us, I knew we were his target.
