Chapter 73: The Fourth Drive

“The seriousness ends right here.”

Ascal declared. Sushia turned her head with a puzzled look, questioning why he abruptly modified his tune.

“This isn’t the way in which to Windwall, is it?”

“Sushia.”

“…?”

He had been swayed by this dream-like actuality till now, however no extra.

“I get what you had been attempting to indicate me. It should have been exhausting to outright say that the Duke’s household had been traitors, and the dragons too.”

“What are you speaking about impulsively? Are you possessed by a demon?”

“I’ve seen all I wanted to on this dream. Any further, I dwell for myself.”

Folks had grow to be unusual abruptly. Sushia critically thought-about whether or not she ought to run away now.

“I’ve a pal. And a beloved horse, too.”

“I perceive much less and fewer, Ascal.”

“First, we discover Fer.”

Ascal had raised Fer for a very long time.

He knew what environments Fer preferred, and what meals he most popular.

In fact, he couldn’t make sure if Fer could be there.

He was simply trusting his luck.

‘If I fail, I would as effectively kill myself.’

****

“Neigh!”

Ascal discovered him. Fer was hiding in a carrot area close to the empire. He typically used to walk to this space.

“Ah, you’ve gotten so skinny. Poor factor.”

The carrot area had been devastated by the conflict. Fer was hiding there, deserted.

Ascal held out a bunch of carrots he had introduced.

Trembling, Fer slowly approached and ate the carrots.

Ascal gently stroked Fer’s head to make him much less afraid.

‘Initially, Sirius would have discovered this man and ridden him within the battle of Windwall… However now he’s mine. I can’t hand him over to anybody.’

Three-quarter time, stroke with the grain to the left.

It was Fer’s favourite solution to be petted.

Fer appeared puzzled.

He didn’t perceive how this human, whom he was seeing for the primary time, may very well be so conversant in the precise means he preferred to be petted, virtually like a petting grasp.

“Proper. Right here’s your carrot.”​​Sushia held out a carrot.

Fer kicked it away together with his entrance hoof.

“Yikes! Why my carrot!”

“You didn’t shake off the dust. Fer is delicate about that.”

Having eaten his fill of carrots for the primary time shortly, Fer made a content material little whinny and bowed barely, sufficient for somebody to mount him.

He had acknowledged Ascal as his grasp.

“Mount up, Sushia. Subsequent, we head to the Kingdom of Kelli.”

“Why there?”

The wings of the Pegasus unfolded grandly. Sushia was greatly surprised.

“We’re flying!”

“Whereas I wrestle, there’s somebody on the market sucking honey in peace. I can’t simply depart him be.”

The battle of Windwall was nonetheless a bit away.

With a brand new technique of high-speed transport, Ascal used the facility of flight. Their vacation spot: the Kingdom of Kelli.

****

“Ah, bliss. That is what life’s about.”

The recent springs of Kelli Kingdom.

A younger man relaxed within the tub, a tray floating on the water beside him.

After which, a sip of liquor.

“Kiyaahaa!”

“I discovered the rainbow stone, so I’ll return the orb in the event you assist me out a bit extra.”

“Actually? You’re not mendacity?”

“In fact.”

Ascal handed Bernstein the rainbow stone.

“Are you able to make it? The large golem.”

“Do you suppose a large golem will be made similar to that, with solely a rainbow stone? It requires ample time and amenities…”

“You’ve your lab right here too, proper?”

Bernstein nodded as if surrendering.

“Sure. However it would take at the very least a yr. That’s solely attainable as a result of I’ve some pre-made components for tinkering.”

“We are going to make it in every week.”

“Have you ever misplaced your thoughts?”

Ascal grinned, trying towards the place the white-haired woman stood.

“Every week that seems like a yr ought to do.”

****

“Kraaaaak! Save me!”

Bernstein screamed in agony inside his laboratory, the sound of a person being actually torn aside in actual time.

Ascal had lately found one thing. If the Cloud Dragon may cease time, then the White Dragon may sluggish it down drastically. And on this slowed time, Bernstein was being completely dissected.

“You actually are a genius, Bernstein.”

Ascal acknowledged him. The empire actually wanted Bernstein.

He may by no means let him go.

Within the Darkish Room.

The chief of the Spider smiled.

“The second has come when our long-held plans bear candy fruit.”

That they had waited for a really very long time, fastidiously concealing their identities, only for the empire’s downfall.

“Everybody has accomplished remarkably effectively. Seventh Leg, the murderer. You splendidly assassinated the Minister of Magic.”

A masked shadow nodded at the hours of darkness.

“And the Forger has dragged the empire’s fame by means of the mud.”

A determine with one leg lacking chuckled coldly.

“Witch, you’re actually merciless. Utilizing even your individual youngsters for revenge. The dispute between the 2 princesses has pushed the empire throughout some extent of no return. Ah, take into account {that a} praise.”

The witch appeared down on the mummy with bloodshot eyes. The mother, wrapped in bandages, was barely clinging to life.

-Kill me, please…

“Watch the empire fall with your individual eyes, Kamalon Barba.”

The chief rose from his seat. Eight legs kneeled earlier than him.

The Spider spun its net. On this net spun over such a very long time, the empire would by no means be capable of escape.

****

“Flying!!!”

“Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”

At that second, Ascal and his group had been hovering by means of the sky.

Ascal and Sushia had been using on Fer, whereas Bernstein and the components of the large golem had been mounted on the reworked physique of the White Dragon.

“You already know, I’ve been considering… if we’ve got this White Dragon, will we even want the large golem?”

<There’s a contract I’ve with the Cloud Dragon. I can’t present my energy throughout the empire. I can solely assist with transportation.>

That’s the everyday cliché.

The seemingly highly effective ally can’t be a part of the social gathering on account of some constraint.

Ascal stated,

“The Cloud Dragon has misplaced most of its energy now. Even in the event you went all out, it couldn’t cease you.”

<…Actually?>

“Cross my coronary heart, it’s true.”

<Hehehe.>

The White Dragon joined the social gathering!
