The dragon's harem

Chapter 675 Holy, Fire, and Inferno.

FLAP! Arad flew across the sky, teleporting forward every time he got a chance to save time. His only limitation was Meryem. She wasn't used to such flying speed.

"Vampires are attacking everywhere," Merlin looked down, seeing sparks of fire from the villages and cities on their way.

"I know," Arad replied, "I can hear the screams, but we better finish Vlad as soon as possible,"

****

Back in Alina as Arad flew toward the capitals, the vampires kept their attack, infecting more people when they could and causing havoc.

CRACK! A vampire walked toward Alina's front gate, "Yo! Guards, wasn't this where that dragon slayer Alcott lives? I heard he almost killed our King Vlad."

The guards stared down from the walls, sweating. The vampire attack has become widely known, and the whole city went into a defensive mode.

BAM! A ballista fired a massive, holy-water-drenched bolt at the vampire. CLANG! The vampire pulled a massive great sword, swung it to the side, and deflected the bolt, "Is this all you have?" He smiled, wiping the drops of holy water from his cheek.

"Blood General Aluc, I was sent here by our immortal lord Vlad to clear the city," The vampire bowed, "This place houses the dragon slayer Alcott, the berserker Nina, and we suspect it has Uranus, the dragon who blasted our kingdom." He looked up, "Bring them to me,"

The guards growled, "Who is he to call for those three with that confidence? Even one of them would be enough to wipe the ground with,"

Aluc looked around, "No response? I guess I'll start by killing everyone then, starting by that village in the forest," He looked, seeing the giant ants fighting the other vampires alongside adventurers. "But those things are a pain," He smiled, lifting his sword, "No matter,"

CREEK! The city gate slowly opened, and Aluc turned with a giggle, "They were here, finally!" The smile quickly left his face when he saw someone he never heard of, a blond girl wearing heavy armor, carrying a large shield in one hand and a longsword in the other.

"An insult," He growled, "Do you think a mere soldier can stop me?" He waved his sword, [Blood Magic: Eye burst] His eyes flashed red, sending a wave of eldritch magic.

CRACK! Lydia stomped forward, taking a stance and lunging forth.

^My blood magic didn't work?^ He gasped, taken aback by something that he had never seen before. No one had managed to resist his blood magic till now.

CRACK! Lydia's steel boots cracked the ground as she swung her sword, [Divine Cleaver]

"Paladin!" Aluc gasped, dodging the swing and deflecting Lydia's sword up with his greatsword.

Lydia took the chance to bash him with her shield. CLANG! The vampire blocked her shield bash with his hand, releasing a sound akin to steel clashing with steel. His hand was far harder than any armor she saw, except Arad's skin.

"We expected paladins to stand in our way, but not in the city with those three monsters," Aluc growled, hitting Lydia's shield with his knee and sending her flying back.

CREEK! Using the base of her shield as breaks, she managed to keep herself standing while stopping right before hitting the city's gate, "A power type? That makes things simpler," She thought. ^Jack is helping the soldiers trap the city against the vampires, and Abel is busy taking care of the south gate. Even if I can't beat this one, I must hold him here until reinforcement arrives.^

CRACK! She pierced the ground with the tip of her sword, "A paladin never flees. A crusader only knows how to charge." Her body burned with holy magic, "It's an oath to protect till the last breath, and an oath to claim vengeance for those taken by evil," She glared at Aluc, her eyes burning with golden flame.

"You paladins and your stupid oaths," Aluc growled, "You aren't my target! You're only a side hustle not worth my time. I'm here to slay Uranus, the dragon slayer Alcott, and the berserker Nina. So get the hell out of my way!" He screamed.

CRACK! Lydia took a step forward, her boots leaving marks on the ground, cracking it.

"I said get the hell out of my way! What's glory in killing such a nobody like you to me?" He growled, veins bulging on his forehead from rage.

"Glory is for the arrogant! I'm here to protect and claim vengeance for the fallen," She glared at him, "All those you killed, sucked their blood and cast into damnation, their souls, wishes, lives, and will still call for their birthright, for you the one who robbed them from their rights to be put down, judged by mortal hands here first," She smacked her shield with her sword, "And the gods in the afterlife,"

"Shut up!" Aluc screamed, extending his wings and flying toward her at a blinding speed, swinging his sword at her neck.

CLANG! Lydia blocked his attack and swung her sword at his wings. Aluc easily dodged and swung again at her, only for his attacks to get either deflected by her shield or blocked by her sword.

^She isn't as fast as me, but having that shield is making it harder to hit her,^ He growled, ^She isn't as strong, but that heavy armor and sword, coupled with holy magic is making her attack extremely lethal,^

The guards at the city's gate gasped, unable to assist Lydia with arrows or ballista as they couldn't even follow the two's movement.

Aluc threw his sword back, engulfing his arms in blood, "You asked for it," He rushed forward.

Lydia gasped, lifting her shield to block. ^He's even faster without the great sword and that hardened blood on his arms.^

CRACK! CRACK! CLANG! CLANG! Aluc purposefully targeted her shield, unleashing a barrage of fists that quickly dented the steel, shattering the shield into pieces.

"This is your limit! Human!" Aluc shouted, swinging his fists at Lydia. She swung her sword, blocking one but getting punched in the face, chest, and stomach with a dual fist, sending her flying toward the wall with a splash of blood.

Aluc took a stance, watching as Lydia hit the wall and fell down, "Time to finish you off then head to find those three,"

CLACK! Lydia tried to stand, supporting her body with her sword, "A revelation it may be, but I don't like it," She growled, a tiny black flame crackling from her sword's handle as she glared toward Aluc, a burning dark flame in her eye.

"You?!" He gasped, about to lung at her.

Thud! The two stopped, seeing a woman land between them on a broom, holding a bottle of beer in her hand, "You bastards, messing my night," Amber growled, "Burn! Burn! Into ash," She waved the broom toward Aluc.

"A wizard?" He gasped, a massive fireball flying toward him.

SWOSH! In the blink of an eye, he jumped away and dodged, "Hey you! Using so much..." He was about to shout at her for using a massive fireball beside a forest, but he closed his mouth, seeing ten more fireballs floating above her head.

"The hell I care-eh," She gasped, hiccups overwhelming her speech. She swung her broom down, sending the massive fireballs flying toward Aluc.

As Aluc dodged, Lydia started coursing holy magic through her body to heal. ^Good, I don't need to use that rot.^

SWOSH! Amber flew through her own flame, swinging her broom at Aluc, "Get out!" She cried.

"You drunkard wizard!" Aluc growled, dodging her slow swing and sending a fist toward her face.

KA-DON! Flames gushed out of Amber's body, burning the hardened blood on his fist and charring his skin.

"The fuck?!" Aluc jumped away, flapping his wings to fly, only to find their webbing burned.

Amber wiggled in place, her arms dangling as she held the broom and the beer bottle, dripping drops on the ground.

"Eh-eh!" She gasped, her hair flashing red for a moment.

"Wait...You're..." Aluc gasped, seeing Amber eye's burn red, "Eh-eh," The ground around her burst into flames, sending enough heat to force the guards on the walls to retreat.

"A ticking bomb!" Aluc growled, flying at her as fast as he could.

Fairy wings of fire emerged from Amber's back as her hair turned into a stream of pure fire and her skin into burning embers.

[Blood Art: Blood Shock]

Aluc flew through Amber's flames, punching her in the guts and sending her flying toward the wall with a massive shockwave.

He stood in place, gasping as his right arm fell as gray ash, his face's right side burned. "A fire fairy, and one with elemental blood above all? Do you want to burn this whole kingdom by getting drunk here?" He growled, "We don't want to invade an ashen wasteland, you fire monster,"

Lydia growled, standing to fight, "Amber, stay back. I'll handle him from now," She took a step forward. Now with her body fully healed again, she could try to land a [Divine cleaver] And finish the fiend off. ^Amber's flames weakened him. It's my chance to end this fight.^

"He's souring my drink!" Amber growled, standing with her flame crackling, "I'll burn him and this whole place," She swung her beer bottle in a drunken rage.

Lydia stared at her, ^Shit! She might actually burn Alina.^ "Amber! Snap out of it!"

Thud! As Lydia screamed, a strange woman landed before Amber, patting her head. "Go to sleep. You'll wake with a hangover later," The woman smiled as her long black hair flailed with the wind, her green glowing eye turning to glare at Alcu with a grin on her face.

"Who are you?" Aluc growled, his body regenerating.

The woman turned toward him, walking as the muscles on her well-tuned body expanded slightly, and her black nails sparked with fire. "The inferno witch, Zaleria Shadowend." The woman took a step forward with a grin.

"A shadowend?" Aluc stared at her with a mocking smile, "What a pathetic lie, claiming to be shadowend, and even using the name Zaleria," He giggled, "You don't fear retribution from the gods? Even we aren't that bold,"

"It's been a long time since I spent some quality time with my husband," Zaleria said with a grin, "And now that I had it, you're kind had to cause trouble, blocking my fun time,"

Zaleria took a stance, holding her right wrist with her left hand. "Here I come!"

"You are but a..." Aluc was about to speak when he felt it, seeing a massive red dragon standing behind Zaleria towering over the clouds.

He lifted his hand in a panic, "The fuck!"

"Red Punch!" Zaleria shouted with a smile on her face, her heart rumbling like an engine revving up in her chest. VROOOOM!

CLAP! ZON! Alcu's vision blurred as she disappeared from ahead of him, and he only felt a thud on his chest, with his ears ringing. He gasped, blinking to see a vast tropical forest spanning in front of his eyes, his back stuck to a stone cliff. He looked down with a dizzy mind, seeing a clan of Orc barbarians chanting and staring at the sky.

"Orcs?" He gasped. Orcs lived on the eastern continent across the Death Sea, which was several thousands of kilometers away. "She blasted me all the way here?" He tried to stand but realized his hands shaking through the stone.

He looked down, seeing his whole boy looking almost transparent, slowly fading from his chest where she punched him. "This is..." He gasped, "My soul?"

Aluc's body disintegrated where he stood. Zaleria's fist had pierced right through his soft body. "Don't attack at night while I'm around! Vampire!" Zaleria pulled her fist off his chest, and his body burned into ash.

"Who are you?" Lydia stared at her, but Zaleria ran back into the city, "Sorry! I Don't have time to waste. I need to get back to my husband!"
