Chapter 629 - 628 – Ice dragon clan’s civil war – Part 4.

"Fuck… He is finally… dead…." – said exhausted princess Ari as she and Deg as they finally managed to defeat the berserker dragon.

"…What in the actual hell was it?" – said Deg.

"It was a mindless animal."

"No matter how we wounded it, that thing would keep charging and regenerating!"

"There was no fear or any emotions either!"

"…Just… Animal."

"This wasn't natural!"

"Something or somebody must had done something to that dragon!"

"…"

"Princess?" – said high ranking dragon Deg as he looked towards the princess and saw it.

Her terrified expression.

(No…No, no, no, no, NO!) – the princess screamed in fear.

(THAT THING WAS THAT STRONG AND HARD TO KILL?!)

(AND THERE ARE FUCKING SEVERAL OF THESE THINGS OUT THERE IN THE NEST RIGHT NOW!)

"…"

"Deg… It isn't over." – said the princess.

"My clones have spotted several of these thing spread around the nest."

"?!"

"What?! You are telling me there is more!?" – said terrified Deg.

"My clones spotted them! I SAW IT MYSELF!" – shouted the princess Ari.

"Do you understand it now?! I fucking tried telling you before!" – shouted the princess as in the next moment, the two dragons saw more explosions happening in the distance.

"…"

"…Do you know… Where exactly are they?" – asked Deg.

"No… My clones were destroyed." – replied the princess.

"I've tried using one of them to contact my sister."

"I saw her fighting one of those berserker arcane dragons… Before then vision was cut off."

"It was struck down by the breath attack fired by those beasts."

(What the hell do we DO?!) – thought panicking princess.

(Both of us can still fight.)

(But there is no way we can take on all of them!)

(Heck! Those guys will break free from any restrains, even if it means tearing their bodies apart… They don't care since they can just reattach them later on and regenerate any heavy injuries.)

(Regrouping with my sister who is on the other side of the nest?!)

(No…)

"…"

"We lost." – said the princess.

"NO! WE DIDN'T LOST YET!" – shouted Deg.

"There is still a chance! WE CAN FIGHT! WE KILLED THIS THING!"

"DON'T FUCKNG GET IT!? THERE IS TOO MUCH TO HANDLE!" – shouted princess as she argued.

"AND YOU DO REALIZE HOW MUCH TROUBLE WE HAD WITH THAT FUCKER?! US TWO THE STRONGEST DRAGONS OF THE PURITY FACTION!?"

"WHAT DO YOU THINK AVERAGE JOE WILL DO?! HUH?! DIE!"

"BUT WE HAVE NO CHOICE! BUT TO FIGHT!" – shouted Deg as he instantly flew off.

"?!"

"DEG! COME BACK HERE!" – shouted the princess in desperation, only for the high-ranking dragon to completely ignore her command.

"FUCK! THIS OLD FOOL!"

"…"

(Run.)

(We need to run!)

(There is no way we can take on these things!)

(I need to find officers and have evacuate people out of here!) – thought princess as she started flying, trying to look for the survivors.

But in the next moment, she noticed coming straight at her from the side, before then yet another berserker dragon had made their appearance and slammed their entire body into the dragoness, causing the two dragons to fall down on the ground.

"SHIT! GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY WAY!" – shouted Ari as she was left with no choice but to fight.

The ice dragon clan was suffering.

These beast couldn't be stopped at all.

Death, death and death.

This was what becoming of the nest.

….And this was even visible from far away.

"What the actual hell is going on there?" – said Phantasia as he was staring through the windshield of the aircraft, noticing the golden and silver flames raging on in the distance.

"So that what Thanatos meant that there is fucked up shit going on." – said Maparapara.

"…"

"…"

"In about 5 minutes, we should reach the ice dragon nest." – said the homunculus pilot.

"Understood." – said Phantasia as he grabbed what appears to be a microphone from the pilot seat.

"…"

"Everybody. We are about to reach to reach out destination in 5 minutes."

"Remember what my orders are."

"No mercy."

"There is no time limit."

"There is no need for survivors."

"Just slaughter."

"I don't care if you waste ammunition or potions."

"Use how many you like."

"You can waste them even if that is what you like."

"But slaughter them to the last."

"Got it!?" – said Phantasia as a fleet of aircrafts were heading towards the ice dragon nest.

"…"

(Still… I can't say I'm not worried.) – thought Phantasia.

(We headed out as soon as we were ready and just before we had arrived this kind of thing occurred?)

(When it comes down to the distance, the traitors had way more distance to cover compare to use….)

(There is no way they could had arrived here before us.)

"…"

(I don't like this.)

(Even teleports have distance limit.)

(And yet….)

"…"

(There could be way more enemies out there than we currently think.)

(Not only that.)

(Arcane dragons?!)

(For fuck's sake! I've just recently talked about those with "Kid'!)

(Another fucking stupid conspiracy!? AGAIN?!)

(At this point I won't be surprised if traitors or another "neutral" clan fucking show up!)

(…Still, in case that they do, I brough "that" thing just in case as well.)

(Just fucking let them throw yet another conspiracy at me! I JUST FUCKING DARE THEM!)

(The moment they do, I will slaughter all of these fuckers!)

"Master. We are about to reach the nest." – said the homunculus pilot.

"…"

"Everybody. We will not be landing anymore in the nest." – said Phantasia to microphone.

"We will be landing right now."

"?!"

"Wait, why change of plans?!" – asked Maparapra.

"Because whatever is going right now in the nest could fuck us if we would try to land inside as planned." – replied Phantasia.

"I ain't falling into their trap."

[Meanwhile: Princess Assinia]

"IT IS DEAD!" – shouted the dragonewt knight.

"THAT BEAST IS FINALY DEAD!" – shouted the dragonewt knight as the berserker dragon was surrounded by undeads.

"Tch!"

(Fuck. Fighting two at once was way too risky.) – thought princess Assinia.

(If I didn't had prepared these undeads beforehand, it could had gotten nasty.)

(I wasn't expecting in the first place for another one to just pop up while I was fighting that guy!)

(…Anyway, I can use these fuckers.)

(I still don't know what exactly are they or who sent them, but I can just resurrect-)

"!?"

The dragon princess Assinia tried to use her necrotic power to resurrect the two berserker dragons as her undead soldiers… But before she could do that, their bodies started melting, becoming slowly the black liquid.

"SHIT! RISE! RISE! FUCKING RISE!" – shouted the princess as she tried to resurrect the two undead dragons anyway… But it wasn't working.

(Necromancy isn't working?!)

(There wasn't any resistance or anything either!) – thought princess as she kept trying to resurrect the two berserker dragons… But no matter what skill she had used, nothing was working.

"…"

"FUCK!" – shouted the princess as she raised her arms up and cast a spell.

It was yet another necrotic ability… But this time it wasn't targeting the two berserk dragons, but instead it was targeting the corpses of the fallen soldiers.

Moments later, the lizardmen and dragonewts all ended up being resurrected as undeads.

"!?"

"Princess Assinia?!" – shouted confused dragonewt.

"SHUT IT!" – shouted princess.

"Do you think we have a choice?!"

"These beasts cannot be resurrected as undeads! I've tried everything! But nothing was working!"

"We need to use everything we have! Be it even our brothers and sisters' corpses!"

"Understand?!"

"…"

"Yes!" – replied the dragonewt soldier as he and several other dragonewts started using necromancy.

(Good. We can keep our numbers somewhat and then-) – thought princess Assinia before then stopping her thought train.

"…"

(What do we do exactly now?)

(Do we go forward? Or backwards?)

(We need to defend the divine flesh! Without it, our clan won't have ability to evolve anymore!)

(But if we don't hunt these fuckers down, they may gang up on us and we end up getting fucked!)

Assinia was straight up put in no win situation.

She knew instantly that no matter the choice she would choose, there was no physical way for her to "WIN".

"?!"

"PRINCESS!" – shouted the dragonewt knight as he spotted the berserker dragon who was heading straight towards the group.

"!"

"ALREADY?!" – shouted the princess.

"We need more time! We haven't replenished our numbers enough!" – shouted panicking dragonewt knight.

"Fuck! Just use what you have now! And then we-"

However, as the dragon princes was about to give order, the berserker dragon who was running straight towards the group ended up being blasted by something, unleashing a powerful explosion that stopped the beast.

"?!"

(What was that?!) – thought the dragon princess as she looked towards cliff nearby and noticed a large number of figures on top, alongside what appears to be a massive cannon.

(Reinforcement?)

(But who?)

"…"

(Ari?)

"…"

"No… Who are they?" – asked the princess as she realized that they were not soldiers from purity faction… And instead, soldiers that she did not recognized.

"Take aim." – said Phantasia.

"?!" – the necro ice dragon realized that the guns were aimed straight at them.

"And fire at will."
