Summoning the Holy Sword - Chapter 1313 - Angel and Dragon (6)

It wasn’t without reason that Kolt’s expression changed dramatically. In fact, the moment he heard ‘Elizabeth’ calling him a ‘male of the outer plane’ in a contemptuous tone, he realized that her identity was really unusual. Dragons were a long-lived race. Although Kolt was slightly older than Erin, he was considered to be knowledgeable, where basically only natives of outer planes and plane travelers would speak to him in such a contemptuous tone.

Star Dragons were one of them. They weren’t native to the Dragon Soul Continent, and there were even rumors that they were born much earlier than the dragon race of this continent. They traveled through various planes and roamed the worlds at will. It could even be said that the Star Dragons were the ancestors of the dragon race of many worlds. Of course, dragons in the Dragon Soul Continent were all dependents of the five Creator Dragons and had no relation to them. But in the face of a true Star Dragon, Kolt’s heart couldn’t help skip a beat.

Looking at Kolt’s expression, Rhode smiled proudly. As an expert in the Dragon Soul Continent who was familiar with all sorts of information, he certainly knew that if he made up these words, it would definitely raise Kolt’s suspicions. When the time came, Kolt could simply investigate and know the truth of the matter. Despite that, Rhode wasn’t entirely helpless. It went without saying that he knew about the legend of the Star Dragons, which was exactly what he was using to cover things up. As a creature of the outer plane, the Star Dragons always came and went without a trace and were basically loners. Even if Kolt were lucky enough to encounter one, it was almost impossible for him to ask for any information about Rhode from the Star Dragon.

And even if there were any issues, Rhode could look for Stefania, who was a true plane merchant. As long as Rhode had her around, he could resolve any confusions easily. Of course, in all fairness, Rhode really didn’t want to bother Stefania. After all, it would cost him a lot of money to get her help.

On top of that, Rhode’s attributes as the Void Dragon also happened to help him with the task of disguising as a Star Dragon. The manifestation of the Void Dragon, on the spiritual level, was quite similar to the Star Dragons’, so he didn’t need to worry about being exposed. But the question was whether Kolt would recognize his true self. The Void Dragon had left after creating the Dragon Soul Continent. And now, there were only him and his younger sisters as the two Void Dragons in the entire continent. If this night wyvern were able to recognize him as a Void Dragon, Rhode could only admit his bad luck.

But now, it looked like things were moving in the direction he hoped.

Sure enough, in the face of the authentic (of course it was authentic) dragon’s prestige exuding from Rhode, Kolt felt rather uncomfortable. Kolt realized the mighty dragon’s prestige wasn’t one that he could compare with. Although it was considered a trait in the dragon race for females to be more powerful than males, Kolt couldn’t remember meeting such a powerful female dragon in his life, where perhaps even his own mother wasn’t as strong as ‘Elizabeth’!

At that point, Kolt’s head started aching. And as one of the night wyverns, he certainly knew that nothing good would come out from a gathering of a few women. While it was up to him to decide whether or not his dragon lair was satisfactory, the opinions of the ‘girlfriends’ also shouldn’t be underestimated. Kolt, who grew up in the gathering place of the night wyverns since birth, naturally understood this point well.

The reason why he was brave enough to pursue Erin was that apart from the fact that she grew up in the Country of Darkness and was unfamiliar with the customs of the dragon race—this made it quite a bit easier for him to get hold of her—she also didn’t have other dragon companions due to her unique identity. Even though the intelligence reports stated that Erin had a best friend, that best friend was Lydia, an archangel, after all, and she couldn’t possibly interfere in the marriage of the dragon race. That was why Kolt didn’t take it to heart in the slightest. But now, he didn’t expect this ‘Elizabeth’ to show up and seem even closer to Erin than Lydia, which left Kolt feeling even more depressed.

But even so, Kolt stared at the ‘Elizabeth’ before him, gnashed his teeth, and asked after a moment of silence.

“In that case, Miss Elizabeth. May I ask… What is your relationship with Her Majesty Erin?”

Although this question sounded rather rude for Kolt’s status, he still gritted his teeth and asked. After all, this was a very important question for him as well. This young lady named Elizabeth hadn’t appeared at all in the intelligence he gathered. And if she would only show up occasionally, it wasn’t like all hopes were gone for Kolt. He heard that creatures of the outer planes loved to roam freely, so it was unlikely that Elizabeth would stay with Erin for too long. He also knew that Erin was a person who liked strange beings and artifacts, which probably explained why they were so close with each other. If that were the case, he still had a fighting chance…!

“Relationship?”

Upon hearing Kolt’s hopeful question, the corners of Rhode’s mouth curled up slightly into an odd smile. He turned over and looked at Erin who sat beside him and gazed at her curiously. Then, he reached out his right arm and lifted Erin’s chin gently.

At the next moment, he pressed his lips against Erin’s soft, pink lips that emanated a seductive aroma.

“Mmm…!”

Upon being hit by this ambush, Erin stared in surprise. Although she and Rhode were loving and affectionate in private, where they did things several times bolder, to do such a humiliating act publicly in front of an unfamiliar third party embarrassed her. But even so, she shuddered slightly and had no intention of pulling away. Instead, she closed her eyes and responded to his kisses.

“Mmm… Mmm…”

Soon, Rhode pried open Erin’s teeth with his tongue and with an incredibly fierce momentum, he advanced deeper to wrap around her sweet little tongue. Their tongues tangled and secreted saliva that blended together, leaving behind a warm sensation in each other’s body. As if she were melting in the flame, Erin couldn’t help but let out soft moans.

If one were to look at this scene from the perspective of a third party, this would undoubtedly be an incomparably beautiful picture scroll of blooming lilies. The black-haired young lady in the long black dress leaned on the sofa, lifting the chin of the other girl with one hand, while the other hand hugged her slender waist and limbs. She looked as though she were greedily savoring the food as she claimed the other young lady’s fragrant kisses. The other young lady fell weakly into her embrace. Her body was closely attached to the black-haired young lady’s. Unsure if this was too intense, Erin’s complexion was flushed. Her breathing quickened and her chest could be seen rising and falling unceasingly. This scene was like a lily in full bloom coming up against one’s face. One simply couldn’t look at it directly.

“Mmm…”

After some time, both of them separated reluctantly. The silver thread of saliva connecting between them extended as they pulled away, adding some heartwarming flavor to the scene at hand. At that moment, Erin’s eyes had lost focus completely. Her moving eyes that used to shine brightly were now covered with a faint layer of mist, revealing her unmistakable anticipation.

“So do you understand what kind of relationship we’re in now?”

Rhode stretched out his arm and stroked Erin’s cheek gently. He turned around and looked at Kolt with a victorious smile, while the latter who witnessed the entire scene was dumbfounded. Honestly, it wasn’t uncommon for dragons to be lesbians (after all, due to the tradition of the dragon race, male dragons were relatively wimpier). Well, female dragons also had needs, after all. Since male dragons were gutless, female dragons had to find other ways to have ‘heart-to-heart talks’. And with the dragons’ pride, it was rare for them to lower themselves and fall in love with another race. But if they were of the same race, there would be no worries. But even so, Kolt had no idea that Erin belonged to ‘that side’!

No, no, no, none of that matters. What matters is that if that is really the case, what is the point of me doing all this painstaking work for so many days?

“Hmph, seems like you understand the situation now.”

Looking at Kolt’s odd expression, Rhode licked his lips as if he were reminiscing the soul-satisfying taste of what he savored. Then, he grabbed the unresisting Erin into his arms, lifted her chin to look at him, and turned to Kolt with a provocative and mocking look.

“This is why there’s no place for you to be here, so get out! A coward who doesn’t even dare to go to the battlefield tries to win over Erin’s heart? You won’t be able to do that even after another century. Hmph, what’s the big deal about being a night wyvern? Without Erin, what do you guys even have? You may leave now, Mr. Kolt.”

“… Apologies. Goodbye.”

Upon hearing Rhode’s words, Kolt turned ashen and was at a complete loss. Not only were those words harsh and unpleasant, but they were also devastating. At that moment, Kolt didn’t know what kind of mood he was in anymore. However, he bit his teeth and spoke word by word, before turning around and leaving without looking back. And looking at this scene, Angelina was also filled with great pleasure. But she was a follower, after all, so as soon as Kolt left, she hurried over and sent him out.

“Phew…”

It was only after the parlor door was closed that Rhode heaved a sigh of relief and bobbed his head about. The mocking, but confident smile on ‘Elizabeth’ vanished swiftly. And it didn’t take long before he restored his usual ‘dead face’. He looked at Erin in his embrace, reached out his arm, and patted her buttocks gently.

“All settled. I guarantee you that guy won’t dare bother you again, Erin.”

“Yes, Mr. Rhode. I’m sure he won’t come here anymore. How could he after being scared to that extent?”

Upon hearing Rhode’s words, Erin revealed a bit of a wry smile. Of course, she knew that after Rhode said that, Kolt would definitely not step foot into this place again. Although the relationship between females wasn’t ‘protected by law’ among the dragon race, it was commonly known by convention. Now that Rhode had declared his relationship with Erin, if Kolt were to pursue Erin again, Rhode could transform into ‘Elizabeth’ and take care of him. Even if Rhode didn’t kill Kolt, it was still no problem for him to beat him to near death.

Moreover, Rhode’s final taunting and sarcastic remarks were a fatal blow to Kolt. Indeed, as Rhode mentioned, the Country of Darkness was facing the danger of war right now. Forget it if he wasn’t here to offer help, but how could he come and cause trouble for Erin? Wasn’t he asking for death?

Anyhow, this trouble with Kolt was considered settled entirely. Erin believed that it was impossible for him to complain to the matriarch after he went back. After all, who would be that shameless to humiliate himself by saying it outloud. However…

“Is that really fine, Mr. Rhode? We’re short-staffed right now, and if the night wyverns are willing to help…”

Although deep down, Erin was happy about Rhode’s move, she still asked with some concern. It wasn’t a case of picking up the slack. Erin was by all accounts the ruler of the Country of Darkness, and the current Dark Dragon—one of the five Creator Dragons. Not only did she need to think at her own level, but also on the level of her country and the continent as a whole.

Even though she didn’t accept Kolt’s advances, she also didn’t follow Lydia’s suggestion to club him out because she valued the power of the night wyverns. If the night wyverns were to head into war with them, they would undoubtedly bring a boost to Rhode’s defenses. That was why Erin had no choice but to deal with Kolt patiently, while finding a way to get the support of the night wyverns as her troops.

But now… Since Rhode had made his decision, perhaps she couldn’t rely upon the night wyverns anymore. Unless they were prodded by Rhode to head into battle, the possibilities were too unlikely. Even if Kolt were angered by Rhode, the other night wyverns still wouldn’t agree to join them. That was why, in Erin’s perspective, the road to seek help from the night wyverns was pretty much blocked completely after Rhode made such a fuss.

“It doesn’t matter.”

But Rhode, who should have been having a headache over this, shrugged in boredom and acted as if he didn’t care at all.

“While it’s true that the situation is quite a bit of a problem right now, it’s not like you can’t get things done without them. Hmph. Even if those night wyverns were to join us, I’m concerned that they wouldn’t listen to our commands. Besides, Gaya has gone to figure out a way. But if it still doesn’t work… Then I’m not too sure myself.”

Rhode said, hesitated for a moment, and eventually said.

That’s right, he still had one more insurance in place. Back then, when he designed the three defensive lines, he had prepared for all kinds of situations. That was why he had already considered the possible tensions on the defensive lines and made corresponding plans, which were simple and weren’t complicated or difficult at all.

Take the Country of Darkness, for instance. It became the first point of contact against Chaos after being disassembled from the Dragon Soul Continent. But why were the borders of the Country of Darkness the safest and no Chaos could overcome them? Because the void storm was present—a terrifying storm that could sweep away everything including Order and Chaos, turning them into nothingness. Even Chaos didn’t dare cross the border by one step, or it would head down a road to ruin.

And the void storm wasn’t a natural occurrence, but was created by the blast of the Plane Destruction Bombs.

In that case… This plan was on the point of being disclosed.

If it was really impossible to resist Chaos’s attack, Rhode had decided to use the Plane Destruction Bombs to create void storms in several remote border areas of the Country of Light. This way, he would lose a part of the Dragon Soul Continent while gaining a natural barrier that would keep Chaos out forever, which was quite a good deal.

However, it was a last resort. After all, one could see just how dangerous the void storm was from the fact that Chaos didn’t even dare to cross it. Rhode could certainly set up Plane Destruction Bombs on all sides of the Dragon Soul Continent and create a natural barrier that wrapped around the continent from end to end, so as to eliminate the threat of Chaos.

But unfortunately, this approach would only hurt themselves. The void storms didn’t know who the enemy was, and if Rhode did that, the Dragon Soul Continent would be like the eye in the center of the tornado. The eye might be able to remain calm in the center of a whirling, violent tornado. But if the tornado shifted and reeled in the innocent, they would be torn to shreds by the violent gales. Moreover, Rhode still had to open up a channel to the solar system through the Door of Akasha. And if the void storm were to block the way, he would be totally powerless.

So unless it was absolutely necessary, Rhode didn’t want to use this strategy. But if he made up his mind, nothing would stop him in doing so. After all, this plan was indeed dangerous, but the benefits it would bring were just as great. Just look at the present situation: the Country of Darkness was spreading its forces to strengthen the other defensive lines due to the natural barrier of the void storm, which eased a lot of pressure for them. Otherwise, the situation would have been much worse. So if Rhode really carried out this plan, the remaining defensive forces could also help out elsewhere, wasn’t it?

And now, after learning that Rhode had some ideas, Erin didn’t need to worry anymore. But…

“Mr. Rhode, I think that’s fine too…”

Laying in his embrace, Erin lifted her head and winked playfully at him. Then, she extended her arms and wrapped around his neck.

“Hehe… Miss Elizabeth. How fun… Hmm… Can you continue where we left off with that identity? Frankly, I can’t hold it in anymore…”

“Of course.”

Upon hearing her words, Rhode showed a gentle smile and transformed back to ‘Elizabeth’ soon after.

“I will let you have a taste of something entirely special.”

‘Elizabeth’ spoke, stretching out her arms and holding Erin down on the sofa. Then, she lowered her head.

Along with this action from ‘Elizabeth’, Erin’s groans resounded throughout the parlor once again…
