The dragon's harem

Chapter 636 Sena’s Investigation

?Thud! Sena landed in front of the city where Arad got kidnapped as gently as a feather falling down, not wanting to disturb any evidence. She stepped forward, looking around with a passive face. .

“Look who’s there!” A strange man wearing leather armor shouted, waving his hand for more people to come, “A woman, and a beauty at that!” He laughed.

It was a common occurrence, bandits rushing to destroyed cities to scavenge any leftovers. Only they knew how much wealth could be extracted from the ruins of civilization.

The bandits surrounded Sena, pulling their weapons. “Come lady, what brought you here?” One of them approached her, pointing the knife at her throat but she didn’t react, still looking around for Arad’s tracks.

“Probably looking for a lover or family,” Another one of the bandits approached her, “Don’t worry, we’ll give all the love and warmth you need,” As he approached, he got in her line of sight, blocking her vision of the ground where she was looking for tracks.

CRACK! Sena waved her hand, swatting him into a slash of blood, which deflected off an invisible barrier around her body. The bandits screamed in fear as they saw her keep ignoring the rest of them, looking closely at the ground as she kept searching.

“This bitch!” One of the bandits screamed, swinging his sword at her head. CLANG! The sword clashed with the barrier, deflecting as if it hit a stone. “Take this! And this!” He kept swinging at the back of her neck until his sword shattered, but she didn’t as much as bother to notice him.

Sena’s eyes shifted to look like those of frogs, glowing with a sharp blue flare as she touched the dirt with her hand, “Tracks have been trampled by humans. The pests,” She stood, finally looking toward the bandits, “Flies, you’re the ones who trampled the tracks?” She said with a calm voice.

“Finally looking at us you…” The bandit’s face twisted, his skull crushed into his chest. .

“I see, flies indeed. Rushing to scavenge the remains of the city,” She looked around, “You’ve messed with the tracks without knowing it,” She sighed.

She turned and started walking away to keep searching in another part of the city, leaving the bandits confused and shaking in their boots.

“You!” A bandit screamed, trying to run and stab Sena’s back, but his legs refused to move. “What?” He gasped, his body frozen in place.

“What’s this? What did you do?” He looked around, seeing that everyone else was like him, unable to take a single step. No matter how much they screamed, Sena didn’t even look back at them as she kept searching for tracks.

Sena didn’t want them interfering with the tracks anymore, so she froze them in place, where she totally forgot about them. They remained standing there until they died.

After an hour, Sena found traces of Arad’s magic on the ground. Just by touching the tracks, she could see how he took a step back, shifting to swing a fist. “He fought here, and there as more than one dream walker. Several of them,”

After looking further, she found a drop of black slime on the ground, “This slime looks clean, a colony must be near,” She wiped the slime with her finger, pouring mana through it, “I see, the fight got pushed inside the city.”

“You aren’t a normal girl, are you?” A bald elf monk stared at Sena from the back, lifting his hand to pray, “Not a bandit or an adventurer, what are you?” Grant, the spirit king said as he stared at her.

“Grant, this woman is bad news,” The forest spirit emerged from his back, sweating as she stared at Sena, “Something is horribly off about her,”

“She’s right, let’s leave,” A Nymph voice boomed from his chest, “I don’t sense a limit to her mana,”

“Human woman, what are you?” The monk took a step forward, “I’m Grant, the spirit king. You must know about me. I recently ranked fourth among the adventurers.”

Sena looked at him, “The monk who controls a lot of spirits. Depending on the conditions, you might hold more power than the wind spirit Zephyr,”

“Of course, since I have more spirits.” He smiled, “If you know that, care to explain yourself,”

“Ask your spirits. Does anyone one of them dare to fight?” Sena glared at them.

“Grant, let’s leave. This woman is bad news.” The water spirit emerged from his arm. “I feel like I’m being caressed by slimy tentacles. It’s creepy and gross.”

“The spirit who could flood kingdoms says that?” Grant looked at her, “How much power do you think this woman has?”

“I don’t sense a limit to her mana. I can’t guess,” The water spirit growled.

“I do have infinite mana,” Sena stated, staring at them, “Inherited it from father,”

Grant laughed, “Infinite mana? You must have gotten crazy. I believe you have one hundred million mana, and not that it’s infinite. No matter how big the sea is, it’s eventually run dry,”

He lifted his hand, “Seeing how monstrous you are. And that you refuse to explain yourself to me,” A staff appeared in the monk’s hand, “I suspect you’re the one behind the destruction of the city. I hereby sentence you to death,” He opened his eyes, “Merge!”

His body flashed with light, bursting with mana as he mixed with all his spirits.

From the dust he emerged, a white doll-like creature without a face. He had six dragonfly-like wings emerging from his back and extremely long fingers.

“I’m the spirit king, Grant, and you shall die here,” He said, floating up without flapping his wings.

SWOSH! Grant’s vision blurred as his body accelerated sideways, feeling a sharp pressure on his side.

With a shockwave, his body broke the sound barrier as he was blasted several kilometers away from the city, crashing into the side of a mountain.

“The hell was that?” He gasped, lifting his head to look forward. For a split second, he could see Sena flying toward him.

CRACK! He got smacked again, sending him crashing onto the ground with a massive blast.

Sena stood at a boulder, staring at him, “You’ll keep coming after me if I leave you alone. That’s why I’ll at least cripple you here,”

“That acceleration,” Grant growled, “Time magic?”
