Dragon King's Harem Chapter 19. A Night Iraining Ground"Tell Sarah to prepare Almeric's dinner. And add some Wugreame Cookies for him," I said to the guard at the front of Al's room."Yes, Your Majesty," answered one of the guards and he carried out my orders.After hearing that answer, I walked down the quiet corridor. But instead of returning to my chamber, I walked towards the training ground."Your Majesty," the guards bowed and greeted me."Open the door," I ordered.Two guards opehe door for me. While another was just turning around, intending to leave. But I turo him and stopped him. "You don't o report this to Eiron." Whenever Argod came to the training ground, he always took Eir with him. But tonight I wao practice alone. I knew Eir was worried about me and wouldn't agree if I said I wao spend the whole night practising. Besides, I already knew where my limit was."Yes, Your Majesty." The guard returo his position.I walked into the training ground and the stone door behind me closed. A long breath escaped my mouth as I shook off my nervousness. Even though I had prepared myself, this time no one would help me if I lost. My feet stepped closer to the green crystal and I put my hand there. "Level 10, 3 monsters."The door across from me opened and 3 Gloom Trees came out of it. 'Adrenaline Surge! Dragon Armor! Power Boost! Accelerate! '[Adrenaline Surge has been activated.] [Dragon Armor has been activated.] [Power Boost has been activated.] [Accelerate has been activated.][ATK: 85 + 43+ 47] [M.ATK: 85 + 43 +47] [DEF: 50 + 25] [SPD: 50 + 25 +28] [Time remaining: 14:56]Without wasting time, I flicked my wings and flew towards them. 'Rage!' I took out my Bazooka and aimed it at one of the monsters.- Boom!Like before, I shot it to immobilize him. But, sihis time I had Accelerate skill, I decided to finish him off with my sword. 'Nightmare!' I glided as I summoned my sword.As his beed to normal, I swung my sword in front of him[You have cut a Gloom Tree for 147 HP]Unfortunately, I only mao cut him ond had to retreat since he had regeed."Tch!" I clicked my tongue in annoyand glided backwards out of his range as an annou appeared before me.[A Gloom Tree is in an acid burn effect.] [Its HP will decrease by 1 point per sed] [Its Speed will decrease by 20%.]"Grroooaaahhhhh!" That Gloom Tree shrieked in pain and sshed his tendrils in all dires, including at his friends. Unfortunately, his attack did not affect them.'Well, that should take care of the rest.' I could see his HP dropping due to my acid burn effect. But I could her approach him nor approach his friends because he was moving his tendrils in rage.After that Gloom Tree died, I summoned my bazooka again and fired at the loom Tree. Then I glided at him after he couldn't move.Since I only had one ce, I decided to ge my strategy. So instead of summoning my sword, I imagined another on. This was also one od's main ons. 'Mana on!'The bazooka in my hand was repced by two shorter bck swords with sharp edges. Its bde slightly jagged in the middle and a blue crystal that resembled my eye resided at each of its hilts. 'Honor and Pride' were the names of these swords.Even though its range was shorter, I could swing it right before the monster could attack me again.[You have cut a Gloom Tree for 130 HP] X2And the Gloom Tree died. 'Nice ...' I thought as I flew backwards aed my previous strategy.-----Al, who just finished his dinner, was silent on his dining chair. One of his elbows pced oable and the side of his head rested on his palm. His other hand was twisting around a Wugreame Cookie and his eyes were fixed on it, staring at it bnkly. His head was filled with questions. He was fused about why Argod ordered him to make those potions 10 years ago. While he khose potiooo weak fod. Restored 300 points HP was nothing pared tod's HP. At least Argod needed Elixir to heal himself, but Elixir couldn't be made unless Argod flowed his mana into the potion since Elixir could only be made if a 'Magus' owner blessed Al's special potion. Unfortunately, Elixir could only st for 7 days after being made.Al took a bite of the cookie in his hand. 'Has His Majesty really lost his power?' That was the worst-case sario inside his head. Even though he rarely came out of his room, Al knew all kinds of information because his 'eyes' were everywhere. As a Royal Magi, Al was entrusted to pg spies among other tribes aing to him if they were thinking about attag Drais. He realized that while Argod was asleep, many tribes who didn't like him began to move and gather more strength to take down the dragon king forever. Meanwhile, their allies began to doubt Argod and leave him. The Minotaur tribe's atta the border was only a prelude, or it could say a trial attack. Another, bigger attack was ing and nothing worse if Argod lost his power at a time like this.Al fihe cookie in his hand and stood up. He decided to che Argod once again. His feet stepped out of the room, down the quiet corridor to the king's chamber.The guards bowed to him. "Good Evening, Sir Almeric. How I help you?""May I request an audieh His Majesty?" said Al."My apologize, sir. His Majesty has not returo his room," replied the guard.Al's forehead creased in fusion. "He's not back yet?" he asked, which was answered with a simple 'yes' from the guard."Thank you for your information," said Al as he nodded slightly a. His mind was w where Argod had gohen he remembered what Argod had just taken from his cupboard, the potions. 'Is His Majesty at the training ground?'Driven by his curiosity, he stepped to the training ground and was blocked by several guards when he was about to enter. "Good evening, Sir Almeric. May I know your business? "Al took out aal potion from his bzer pocket and showed it to the guards. "His Majesty asked me to deliver this to him," he reasoned.Even though they seemed to doubt him, they finally let him in. "But you must e out after giving it to His Majesty.""Okay." He had Mark of Servant, so everyone knew he couldn't possibly betray Argod.They opehe door a bit. The gap was just enough for someoo gh diagonally and he sneaked into it. The door behind him closed and Al heard a strange sound from within the room.- Bang! - Bang! - Bang!He walked slowly towards Argod who was fighting several rge frog monsters in violet colour. He reized those monsters as Dawn Frogs.Al frowned in fusion. He knew Dawn Frog was a level 17 water element monster. Instead of using those strange ons, Argod could kill them with just one snap with his Thuorm skill. 'Has he really lost his power?'Al's eyes fixed od, who tio fight the monsters without notig his presehe strange ons in Argod's hand turned into a h a tip that resembled a rge arrowhead in gold. He reized the on as Argod's beloved Lance, Justice. A blow from that on separated the st monster into two pieces. The blue blood and disgusting slime that came out of the monster soaked Argod's body, repg his sweat. While Argod was gasping for breath, it was clear he had reached his stamina limit.Instantly, Al realized that even though the curse had disappeared, it cost him his power. And right nod was catg up desperately, trying to restore his power from 0. Al ched his fists. "Your Majesty ..." he muttered. Now he uood all Argod's orders to him.A stamina potion appeared in Argod's hand and he drank it. His breathiuro normal and Argod approached a green crystal to release the monster.Meanwhile, Al reached out his hand tod and cast his spell. 'Shadow Refle!'
-----
I just finished level 17 and was about to touch the green crystal in front of me, but suddenly an annou appeared.[Almeric Griga Bevier gave you Shadow Refle!] [This skill will bloemy attacks by three times or reduce the attack damage of epic skills by half.]I looked behind me and saw the stone door closing. But I could already guess who he was. A breath came out of my mouth. 'Looks like he already found out,' I thought. I khat Al was childish, but he was sharp. If he didn't make that fatal mistake perhaps the witch tribe king would make him his right-hand man.I put my hand on the green crystal in front of me. "Level 18."
