Chapter 131: One Dies, One Escapes
Red Dragon actually dodged the arrow, but Zaren didn’t pay much attention. Direct attacks are easy to dodge; it’s the hidden ones that are hard to guard against, and he was a master at those.
Leon naturally wouldn’t let Hunting Demon comfortably draw his bow. Offense is the best defense, he thought, and turned to pounce towards Hunting Demon. Considering the hall was filled with huge iron columns which could interfere with swinging a sword, he didn’t draw out Catastrophe Blade from the small space of Sleeve of the Universe.
Seeing the Red Dragon lunging at him, a roar rang beside his ear, far from panicking—he had fought through bloody battles, what could be more terrifying than that—he smiled slightly and, holding the Brass Crossbow, sprinted behind a column.
If one didn’t see it, it would be hard to imagine such a big and strong, almost overweight devil was not a warrior but an agile Ranger.
Anyways, Sogran remembered the first time he saw Zaren assassinate a disobedient Fire Giant; he rubbed his eyes several times and still couldn’t believe it.
A hint of a smile appeared on Sogran’s lips.
He seemed to already see Hunting Demon playfully tormenting the Red Dragon, maneuvering behind one column after another, using the Brass Crossbow to shoot the Red Dragon full of holes like a hornet’s nest, and finally a dagger piercing through the Red Dragon’s throat, only to see the Red Dragon ferociously pouncing towards Hunting Demon, who then agilely turned after a sprinting shift rather than crashing into the wall unable to stop.
What are you playing at?
One would think you’re a giant winged cat catching mice if they didn’t know you were the Red Dragon.
Devils do not have lifespans; they do not die a natural death. Zaren couldn’t remember how long he had lived but had participated in many blood battles. Mostly, though, he was tracking and hunting for the Devil Duke, his superior, following, searching, and then killing or capturing.
Naturally, he had seen Red Dragons before, even many times. Nine Prisons weren’t short of Red Dragons, but it was the first time he saw such an agile Red Dragon. Maybe even the Mercury Dragon isn’t that agile.
