The dragon's harem

Chapter 931: The Fourth Day of Training Starts!

An hour later of the doing the same thing, Tina knocked on the door once more. “Master, I’ve come back to collect Mira.” She immediately walked onto them, “Are you done yet.” She paused for a second, staring at them, “What are you two doing?”

“At least wait for us to let you in!” Mira immediately jumped from over Arad and stared at her.

“It’s already midnight and you need to sleep so you can wake up early. Don’t forget that you’ve got work.” She stared at her with a passive face, “You’re the one who told me to come and get you after an exact hour.”

“Arad!” Mira looked back at Arad.

“The room is locked with my void. She won’t even be able to enter if I didn’t actively allow her.” Arad replied, that he indeed let Tina in. Mira was quite used to exhaustion and overworking herself, while she kept pushing longer and longer through the hour without even resorting to stamina potions, he was noticing the exhaustion piling up in her mind.

“I know you’re already exhausted, Go rest. We’ll continue once we have time.” Arad patted Mira’s head as Tina approached her with a bathrobe. Tina pulled her bowl of hot water and looked at Mira, “Wait, I’ll clean you first.”

“No need. I got a small bath in my room. I’ll use them before going to sleep.” She walked toward the door and went out. “So, I’ll clean you immediately.” She turned toward Arad and started cleaning him.

“We discussed your payment; you should take more money from the horde. At least ten gold coins a month, not per week.” Arad looked at her.

Tina lifted her head and looked back at him, “Working in the house of a dragon, payment with money is the least important. I’ve got protection, access to infinite wealth, and the peace of mind comes from hiding in the shadow of a powerful being.” She finished cleaning him and stood.

“Even if I got your protection, I shouldn’t seek troubles. Even if I got access to your infinite wealth, there is no reason for me to waste it. And even with the peace and assurance being your maid provides, I shall not take that for granted and neglect my work.” She bowed, “As some in the village started to call me, I’m the maid of the dragon, and I must live up to that title.”

She turned around and walked toward the door., finally leaving after giving Arad one last deep bow.

Arad laid back on his bed, “The maid of the dragon… I hope that’s not a problem…” Wishing that Tina won’t overwork herself; Arad closed his eyes and went to sleep.

The next morning arrived quickly and Arad made his way to the training ground right at dawn. Kayden was sitting there waiting for him. “You arrived? We both are quite early so you should get ready.” Kayden said with a serious face.

“Today I’ll learn how to defend against the slashes, right?” Arad approached him.

“Indeed. So far, you’ve learned how to accelerate, how to teleport the middle of acceleration, and then how to slash. This is your fourth lesion and it’s about how to minimize damage and protect yourself. Even if you can regenerate, it’s always best to save that energy instead.” Kayden stood and rolled up his sleeves.

“When facing an attack, you must read the flow of mana in the attack, whether it was a weapon or a spell, and then form a thin, skin-tight barrier that blocks it.” As Kayden clenched his arm, Arad noticed a thin layer of mana engulfing it.

“Just like how mundane weapons can’t harm magic armor or magic barriers, you’ll do the same but on a higher level. Each barrier you form should be unique to the attack you’re trying to block, and you should cancel it right after blocking to save up mana unless you expect more than one similar strike. Using this method, you’ll only lose as much energy as the attack manages to chip away from the barrier, and even that amount is proportional to the refinement of your barrier.” Kayden rolled down his sleeve and walked back, “Since I want you to practice with more than one type of attack, I’ll prepare countless enemies to attack you.”

Kayden sat on a boulder, “I’d suggest you shift into your draconic form. That’s your most defensive form and it just happened that you’ll have the largest surface to get attacked through.”

Kayden wanted Arad to fight in his draconic form since he’d be a bigger target for attacks, and that would also allow him to learn how to make and control larger barriers in different parts of his body. And Arad generally isn’t threatened in his human form, he’ll be in real danger when an enemy can harm him in his draconic form.

Arad shifted into his draconic form and rolled around like a cat, closing his eyes as he waited, taking advantage of that time to focus and try to create a barrier similar to what Kayden had just shown him. His scales shimmered with magical light, but it was hard to pinpoint a single spot to protect. He couldn’t spread the barrier over his whole body either as that would compromise the barrier’s quality.

From the sky, four demons appeared. Two of them flew on the backs of mutated wyverns and the other two flew with their own wings. The largest of them, a fighter carrying his massive burning greatsword on his back gasped, “Is that him? The one our lord spoke about?” “HOHO! HOHO! LOOK AT HIM!” The ten-foot-tall moon Oni who sat on her wyvern shouted, maniacally laughing with a large smile on her face blue face, “That’s the most beautiful black dragon I’ve ever seen in my whole life!” She stood and pulled out her purple long sword. “Is it wrong that I want its babies?” She looked back at the two demons flying behind.

“No.” One of them replied; he was a thin and short killer demon, a rare kind of demon that specializes in long-range assassinations. “I feel the same, and the lord said he is a guy.” He scratched his head.

“Fools!” The fourth one yelled at them, “Get back to your senses! He’s indeed beautiful, probably to the point of giving birth to nymphs. Be careful!” He opened his palm and a ghostly axe appeared in his hands.

The moon Oni woman smiles, “I don’t care if it’s because of that. I still want his babies, so I’m going in first!” She jumped off her wyvern with a large grin on her face.

Arad opened his eyes, stared up at them, and spotted the moon Oni falling toward him with a crazed smile on her face. He roared, his voice shaking the ground beneath his talons.

“I’m Lunara! My love!” She unsheathed her sword and fell with a swing at Arad’s head, “Give it to me!” As her sword approached Arad’s head, he dodged to the side and deflected her attack with his horn.

As Lunara landed, she looked toward Kayden “Say, can I have him if I managed to win?”

“He’s married.” Kayden replied with a passive face.

“If that’s a problem, I can just kill them.” She replied with a smile, “And this dragon would be all mine.” She giggled with a shiver running down her spine.

“You probably shouldn’t say that. It’ll only get him angrier.” Arad had heard her say she’d kill his wives, and he was coming from behind her.

She looked to see Arad’s claw flying toward her at an insane speed. She jumped up and blocked his attack with ease. All those four demons that Kayden called were already masters of what Arad had learned so far, and they could even protect themselves with barriers in the same way that Arad was trying to learn. By all means, he shouldn’t be able to damage them that much.

Lunara wasn’t afraid of getting harmed, and that was a mistake.

Arad grabbed her by the leg as she was about to fly away, he then immediately grabbed her other leg and forced them apart, glaring straight at her groin as he opened his mouth, charging a full power energy breath.

With how massive Arad was, it looked like a large man holding a small bird between his hands. She tried to teleport away from the iron grasp of his claws, but he teleported with her.

Arad had already noticed that she was protecting her full body with a barrier so he couldn’t effectively damage her, but there were parts of the body that she wouldn’t even bother to protect, parts that attacks usually never reach.

As she tried to escape, Arad blasted his breath straight into her uterus and into her womb. Her body inflated like a balloon as the massive energy of Arad’s breath gathered inside her barrier-covered body, and she soon exploded in a white flare of fire. And to remove the possibility of her regenerating from her limbs, Arad immediately ate her legs which remained in his claws, and lunged forth and ate one of the arms that survived. Kayden sighed and waved his hand, resurrecting Lunara from his blood. She appeared just as she stood before, even her weapons and clothes got recovered. “By all means, you’ve got the advantage over him. But be careful, if you threaten his wives, he’ll rip you to shreds.” The moment Arad noticed that Lunara had come back to life, he lunged at her in a heartbeat. free𝑤ebnovel.com

The large fighter demon rushed in and tackled Arad from the side, pushing him aside as he shouted. “LUNARA! How the fuck did you manage to get killed in less than a second! You’re supposed to be immune to his attacks!”

“He is better than I ever expected!” She shouted with a large grin, rushing back toward Arad.
