The Dragon King’s Harem System

Dragon King's Harem Chapter 153. Win Or Lose

Elsewhere, as Evelina and Eir waited for Argod, they decided to watch Al running around, catching the clam monster and harvesting its red pearl. Even though it was a low level monster, from the holes in the ground and the melted rocks around Al, it was clear that they could not underestimate the clam's fire skill.

Still--- Al tried to catch the clam with passion. This was his 51st clam.

Al ran to catch the clam. But like the others, the monster put up a fierce fight. It shot its fire at Al, turning the glow red pearl in the center even brighter.

But Al used his Shadow Barrier to block its attack before he used his Shadow Manipulation.

The shadow under the clam rose and turned into a rope that bound its body. But that didn't stop the clam from attacking him.

With a confident smirk, Al simply flicked his finger. One of the shadows turned into a sharp knife and pierced its inside.

With just that simple trick, the clam stopped spitting his fire and died.
"So easy~," said Al confidently. He walked to the monster casually while the shadow formed a hand to take the pearl in the middle and give it to him.

Al held the red pearl with his index and thumb before he raised it to the sky.
"Beautiful~" he admired the pearl with a grin on his face. Even though it was the main ingredient for strengthening his Elemental Changer Potion, he had to admit the beauty.

Eir who looked at him from a distance could only shake his head from side to side.
"Looks like he's enjoying himself." His hand was holding an umbrella for Evelina who was sitting on a rock next to him.

"Indeed," said Evelina. Although her gaze was on Al, her concentration was on the cave not far besides them. It had been more than two hours since Argod went inside, yet the barrier had not disappeared. Although she believed Argod was much stronger now, based on his orders to Eir, she knew Argod wasn't sure whether he could defeat the legendary beast or not.

After that word left Evelina's mouth, the ground shook. It made Evelina stand up from her seat and use her Barrier to protect them from the small rocks. While Al also used his Shadow Barrier for the same reason.

The earthquake only lasted a few seconds before everything calmed down.

Due to the abnormality, they turned at the cave. As they expected, the barrier was gone. Which meant the battle in the cave was over. The problem was, who was the winner?

As Argod's order, they waited in front of the cave with pounding hearts, hoping that Argod would get out of there soon. It was the longest 5 minutes of their life. But no one came out. Which meant... The Dragon King had lost.

With a pounding heart, Eir stuck the umbrella between the rocks and ran into the cave with Al as fast as they could. This was what they feared the most and the reason why Al insisted on going with them. They knew Argod had been pushing himself ever since he woke up from his hibernation.

Evelina knew she should be waiting there, but she couldn't help but worry. So she ran in, following the others.

"Your Majesty!" Eir shouted in shock as soon as they found their king passed out on the ground. He knew he shouldn't shout but he couldn't hold back his shock.

The only thing covering Argod's body was his half-burned trousers. His body was covered with burns, especially his left hand. His face was full of dirt. It was the first time they saw their king lying weakly on the ground.

Al used his Shadow Barrier. Who knew The Legendary Beast would attack them when they tried to save him.

Surprisingly, there was no one there except Argod.

Evelina knelt by her husband's side and held out her hand.
"Cover us! I will heal him!" she ordered. She didn't know what had happened, but she certainly wouldn't waste Blaze Draco's absence. She also used her barrier to protect them.

Following her order, Al and Eir stood in front of the king. Their eyes looked in all directions and corners, searching for The Legendary Beast. But they didn't find it. Although the cave was quite large, there was no hiding place here. Surprisingly, there wasn't any trace of that beast.

As Evelina used her healing skill, Argod's wounds slowly disappeared. His burned skin returned to normal. After the king had fully recovered, she gently placed his head in her lap.

Her hand caressed his face, cleaning it from the dirt.
"Your Majesty, please wake up..." she said softly.

-----

When I opened my eyes, the first thing that came into my sight was Evelina's face. The pain in my body had disappeared, all that was left was my fatigue. A relieved smile appeared on her lips as soon as she saw I regained my consciousness.

To which I replied with the same smile.
"I did it, Evelina," I said weakly.

It was enough to make Al and Eir turn to me.

"You mean..." Evelina said in doubt.

"I got Blaze Draco," I confirmed.

Their faces suddenly brightened. Al and Eir immediately lowered their guard.
"You should have said it from the start," Al complained. A long exhale followed.

While Evelina hugged me.
"I know you can do it," she whispered.

"Then why are you worried about me?" I asked.

She should be waiting outside. The fact that she was with Eir and Al indicated she was worried.

"Because you are my husband and my beloved one..." she whispered.

Her answer was enough to make me speechless.
