Chapter 27 - 26: Not to Be Messed With
The High Elves, summoned back on orders, had already rushed to the scene upon hearing the news.
But upon abruptly encountering the gruesome and terrifying sight of the battlefield, they were all shocked by the intensity that far exceeded expectations.
"Wasn’t it said to be just one Red Dragon whelp?"
They would even believe it if they were told it was a chance encounter with a young Red Dragon in heat!
"Commander! Are you alright?" Several Elf knights hurried forward, and a Spellcaster quickly cast Elemental Energy Protection and Rapid Healing.
But Yevgeny pushed them away, enduring the pain in her body.
"Quick! Pursue! Towards the South Foothills, spread out and search. That Red Dragon can’t have gone far with just a burst of Dragon Breath. We must find them!"
"Yes, Ma’am!"
"Wait! They are also seriously injured, especially that Red Dragon. This time, we must not engage with force. Once you find them, just secure their position and wait for me!"
"Understood, Your Excellency!" The Elves, though their faces showed reluctance, did not refuse.
At least this time, they weren’t being sent to clash directly with a Dragon.
