Chapter 130: Contingency Plans
Throughout history, humans, vampires, werewolves, including other types of creatures banded together to bring down the dragons centuries ago because they were naturally wild and bloodthirsty, often simply bringing terror and destruction to every kingdom in their wake.
Seeing their threat to all living beings, they were eradicated, and their souls were forced to wander around trying to merge with any human or living thing they could find. And thankfully, none were successful.
"Isn’t it Queen Dana who sealed most of the powerful souls inside the forbidden forest including the Dragon King, Vulcan?" Nikolai asked. "That’s almost twenty-one years ago if I’m right."
"Hmm, aren’t you supposed to be better than me in history, my friend?" Darius scoffed in jest.
Nikolai chuckled in reply, "Stop making fun of this. This is a serious matter. The dragon seen is something that looks more along the lines of Vulcan... The Dragon King..."
Throughout all of this, he couldn’t help but wonder if he could somehow extract more information about this situation from Darius. He seemed to be getting along well with Princess Xenia already. Maybe his new mate had already disclosed more information to him than Mine ever did for him.
It was simply unfortunate that he couldn’t help but be suspicious of the current developments with Ezekiel still missing like this.
Nikolai hummed as he pondered, "Somehow, I couldn’t help but consider the possibility that his soul merged with Prince Ezekiel. The King and Queen are probably aware of it by now including my wife, but they’re trying to conceal this fact from everyone. So far, there’s been no successful attempts at performing the alchemy of a soul of a dragon to any human being... So this is really something... questionable."
"I see," Darius hummed in thought. "Are you going to investigate this?"
