The Dragon King’s Harem System

Dragon King's Harem Chapter 184. The War Has Begun IV Meanwhile, at The Minotaur King, Xinrax was quickly out of his tent in a rage when he heard the loud battle horns ordering his tribe to withdraw. Once he was outside, he stopped in his tracks and looked up at the sky before he banged his weapon to the ground. Again it was enough to shake the ground and shocked everyone. “Fuck you, Dravis!” he cursed. He had said that they had to go all out for this war, yet the general ordered his troops to withdraw. It was tantamount to going against his orders and of course that was inexcusable. But then he could feel the familiar earth Mana power rapidly approaching him. He immediately turned to the origin of the Mana. A mole immediately came out of the ground and jumped on Xinrax. He greeted it with a merciless grab for that small creature. In an instant, it shattered into pieces. A message immediately entered his head. 'The Dragon King is awake and he has joined the battle. Your plan failed, we have to pull back to talk about what we should do next.' Xinrax gritted his teeth in annoyance. “I see… that's why you ordered our troops to retreat,” he muttered. He believed the dragon king who joined the fight was a fake. The dragon was a prideful creature. There was no way the dragons did not announce or celebrate their king's awakening. Or at least, if this news was true, they should have heard rumors regarding this. So he was pretty sure this was the dragons' tactic to scare them. So with this, the dragon could make his troops retreat without requiring extra effort. A smirk appeared on his lips. "You're still as stupid as you used to be, brother. That's why I'm the king and you're just a general.” Xinrax believed Dravis had fallen into the dragons' trap. But of course, that didn't mean he would do nothing. He still had to investigate the truth. A messenger, who was approaching him hastily, stopped in front of him. Without a formal greeting, he immediately reported being out of breath. “Your Majesty, the dragon king has joined the battle! They used our tunnels to destroy our own troops,” the messenger quickly blabbering without a pause. Upon his last sentence, Xinrax looked at him with a frown. His curiosity was clear. “What do you mean by they use our tunnels?” Xinrax asked the messenger for clarification. Dravis' message was too short, he didn't understand why his plan had failed. Moreover, Xinrax felt that his plan was perfect. The messenger explained everything to the king, and gave all the details, including explaining what happened there. "That's impossible… The tunnels were made in secret and we all know all the progress," Xinrax muttered in disbelief. His shock was evident on his face. “But the dragons know everything, Your Majesty. General Dravis has no choice but to retreat or we will lose. Besides, the dragon king is there. I saw it with my own eyes. He's on the fortress' wall with General Guillotine," said the messenger in a panic. Xinrax glared at the messenger. “But he's wearing a hood right? He even did not show his face. Do you think that the arrogant dragon king would do that? That's not the dragon king. It's just one of his soldiers disguised as their king!” he snarled in rage. Then he turned his gaze forward. His eyes swept over his soldiers who could only lower their heads upon his rage. “There must be a traitor among us!” he shouted in anger. And he already has a suspect. Someone who would get a lot of benefits if their tribe lost. Someone who had held a grudge on him for a long time and wanted the throne. Even though Dravis already had a mark of servant, since all Dravis needed to do was tell the tunnels to the dragons, he could have found a way to betray him. Like writing a letter to the dragons or telling about the tunnels via a messenger. As his negative thoughts flooded Xinrax's mind, another thought flashed through his head. ‘Wait for a second…’ If the dragons managed to destroy the tunnels, if the dragons were really winning… Why did they have to use a fake dragon king? Was that boost up their soldiers' morale? Or... Suddenly his confused thoughts faded. 'Of course! The dragons must be hiding something! And what they want is to make us give up on day one!' he thought. Which meant he would do the opposite. “Give my orders to General Dravis to keep attacking the Firestone Fortress. We have to conquer it today!” Xinrax's order was loud and firm. He was sure there was something in today. Something the dragons covered to the point they had to use the fake dragon king to make the Minotaur tribe retreat even though they were winning their first strike. His orders shocked everyone. “B-But, Your Majesty---” the messenger wanted to ask Xinrax to reconsider her decision, but Xinrax replied with an intimidating glare. "Should I repeat my command?" Xinrax hissed. The messenger shook his head from side to side eagerly. “B-But why?” asked the courier curiously. He couldn't believe the general had made a more reasonable decision than his king. “Because it's all just a trap for the dragons! They want us to back off! If we follow him, then we will fall into his trap!” Xinrax snapped. The messenger frowned in confusion. That certainly made sense. But judging from what he saw on the battlefield, for him, General Dravis' decision was the best. Upon the messenger's silence, Xinrax spoke again. “What are you waiting for? Now go and deliver my orders!” “Yes, Your Majesty!” the messenger could do nothing but follow his orders. As the messenger walked away, Xinrax used his Magic Messenger to send his message directly to Dravis. 'Take over Firestone Fortress whatever happens today!'
