Chapter 187: Wall Breached

*swoosh*

The dragon took off from the ground and started to go towards the border high walls that were guarding the capital.

The wolves too, without wasting any time, started to run with all their might to follow the dragon so that they could go and kill the humans too.

'Master wants the humans dead.'

'No matter what, we must please him!' - Deoras kept thinking this in his mind.

It seemed as if he wasn't startled after looking at the Shadow Dragon Argant. He had seen Shin summon him earlier after all - during the first time they met that is.

However, that wasn't true for others. They were super surprised after seeing the dragon - especially the one and only Shadow wolf general.

He was shocked actually, and he now finally realized just how strong Shin was. In any case, he was still not ready to accept Shin. As said earlier he had a lot of ego.

Whatever, now all the wolves ran towards the wall. Every element actually possessed some mind blessing and that blaming was panned onto the creatures of the said element.

*roar *

The dragon roared as it flew towards the soldiers that were guarding the wall.

They could see Argent flying towards them however they couldn't do anything. They were ordered to stay there.

"What do we do?", even if they asked each other this, they couldn't do anything

"Well, we were asked to die after all", said one of them.

"I will not di just like that." - a brave soldier said this and looked towards the archers.

"What are you guys doing?"

"Why don't you attack already?"

After hearing his words, the archers immediately aimed at the dragon. They were just startled because of the dragon's massive aura.

Some of them aimed at the dragon while others aimed at the wolves. They thought that the wolves were easier to hunt or kill.

"Fire!", shouted all the archers in unison right after which a lot of arrows flew right towards the dragon and the wolves.

"Ha..."

"This will be piece of cake.", the dragon smirked.

Argant wasn't being arrogant but after looking at the aim of the archers and the type of arrows they were using, he confirmed that he was invisible at the moment.

*peww*

*swoosh*

The arrows went right past the dragon and he continued to fly as if nothing happened to him.

"Wha-?", the archers who had aimed at the dragon were surprised by this happening.

The ones who had aimed at the wolves were similarly surprised as well. 

The wolves either dodged the arrows or let them pass through their bodies.

'Ding'

[ Innate blessing activation detected ]

[ Innate blessing: Can turn into shadow temporarily ]

[ The wolves and Argant will turn into Shadow temporarily ]

The notification popped up on the screen when Shin was trying to look for the time that was left to finish the mission.

He knew about this for quite some time that they had some innate skill to turn into a shadow. He found out when he turned himself into Dark Wolf.

'Yes, that time, I felt as if I had some other card under my sleeve...'

So in conclusion, Dark types can blend into the darkness and lose their materialistic form whereas the shadow wolves will turn into shadows to do the same!

Both were not the same because a dark wolf wouldn't be able to blend or lose its materialistic form if there would be no darkness or shadow nearby. Whereas for the shadow wolves, even if it is in bright light, they would be able to transform into shadows and lose the said character!

Therefore, in this aspect, the Shadow wolves had an upper hand but in terms of strength and mana stability, and control, the dark types were stronger.

In a few seconds, Argant approached the walls and then summoned his babies - Shadow Centipedes.

Yes, the same creatures that ate the bears and the bear king without mercy had probably evolved, grew in size, and became fiercer were unleashed.

"Wha-"

"What are those things!?"

The soldiers in the walls waved their swords and fired arrows but none of that was effective. In the end, they got killed and eaten by them.

The shadow dragon kept flying in the sky as if he was keeping a check on others and was preventing reinforcements to come forward with ease.

Yes, just his presence was more than enough to bring fear in many soldiers' hearts, and thus, the reinforcement was delayed.

The shadow dragon then opened his mouth and blasted through the huge gate that blocked the wolves from entering with a black-colored power beam!

"Th-"

"That's some incredible power! As expected of a dragon!", the shadow wolf general exclaimed with surprise.

Shin had asked the solves to return after killing at least 5 human soldiers. He wanted to give them some other directions and orders before they could proceed.

The wolves did exactly what they were told. A lot of lives were lost because of the small blast that Argant did.

Whatever, all of them came out unscathed. It was just like another walk to them. They returned and waited for Shin to walk towards them.

(At the same time, in the royal court of the kingdom of Loria... )

"What do I do...?"

"What do I do?"

"This is wrong! Tell me, what do I do Kerin?"

The King of Loria, a young man around 19-20 years old, was biting his nails as he asked his most trusted and highest-ranked minister. He was still young and knew not what to do. He was dotted by his family members after all due to which, his knowledge was limited to none!

A man with a yellow beard walked forward and said, "Your highness, I believe it is for the best to surrender to such a being."

"Yes..."

"We should do that...", the king seemed to agree with him however he seemed to be just a puppet.

Of course, Kerin was a good person who wanted the safety of the citizens, however, other ministers wanted money, a higher position, and the trust of the king.

Yes, they were greedy. They too had a mastermind among themselves after all and the said person came forward.

"Your highness, I believe we shouldn't do that!", a man with a wicked expression on his face walked towards the young king while saying this.
