Chapter 1095: Chapter 1092: Irreconcilable Hatred Chapter 1095: Chapter 1092: Irreconcilable Hatred The Purple Sapphire Dragon is dead, perishing under the eyes of many.

That gigantic purple silhouette is its Dragon Soul swelling, transforming, and ultimately shattering and disappearing. A creature representing the pinnacle of power, a dragon, thus becomes eternal death. The ocean’s surges continue to roll, and the Magic Power in the sky remains abundant, yet everyone came to a halt.

They all gaze at the forty-meter-long Dragon corpse as it slowly falls toward the sea level.

“Whoosh whoosh…” the wind howls, as if representing the world mourning for the demise of the Purple Sapphire Dragon. Each dragon is a supreme creation of nature, a collection of beauty, strength, wisdom, loyalty, or perhaps pride, always displaying unparalleled charm.

Duraf, Arkas, Rudolf, Tracy, Warren, as well as Liszt, Ach, Emily, and many more Dragons, all cease their battle, watching the sinking shadow of the Purple Sapphire Dragon.

Half an hour ago, the Purple Sapphire Dragon Knight, Duke Figo Iris, fell in battle, and he did not receive such solemn attention. This is because the death of a Dragon Knight is not uncommon, but the death of a Dragon is the greatest marvel–a Dragon represents peak power, abundant resources, more valuable than a small kingdom.

“Your Majesty, it chose to collapse its own soul and die; we were unprepared for such a resolute act,” Emily explained the death of the Purple Sapphire Dragon to Liszt through the Dragon Heart Electrical Signal.

“I understand.” Liszt nodded lightly, having recovered from the shock of the Dragon’s death. His heart was inevitably filled with regret, as the Dragon that should have been added to the Flame Kingdom’s forces had died, but what’s done is done, and the tasks that need to continue must go on, “Emily, you and Ethan retrieve the corpse of the Purple Sapphire Dragon and transport it back to Sun Moon Valley.”

The blood shed by a Dragon in battle can evolve into gemstones, metal veins, and the like–how much more so for the entire corpse of a Dragon? Except for the Dragon Bones that can remain undecayed for a long time, most other parts will eventually transform into Magic Power and then form an enormous vein of ore.

This Purple Sapphire Dragon, even in death, could still produce a massive amount of Purple Sapphires, as well as countless derivatives–Amethysts.

“Yes, Your Majesty!” Emily quickly maneuvers the Light Green Gemstone Dragon and rushes toward the falling corpse of the Purple Sapphire Dragon.

As Emily takes action, the other Dragon Knights also awaken from their shock, and Tracy directly roars: “Stop, the corpse of the Purple Sapphire Dragon belongs to my Eagle Kingdom!”

However, his warning is meaningless as Emily doesn’t hesitate for even a moment.

The leader of the alliance, Duraf, with a gloomy face, looks toward Liszt, who has now revealed himself: “King Liszt, the battle has ended. We admit defeat in this Dragon Slaying Battle, and I will issue a formal letter of apology and compensate for the losses suffered by the Flame Kingdom on Mind Island.”

He paused, then lifted his Dragon Lance and pointed towards the direction where the Purple Sapphire Dragon fell into the sea, pronouncing every word: “However, I need to take away the body of the Purple Sapphire Dragon Knight.”

Liszt looks at Duraf and the others with a cold expression: “You can start a war, but whether the war ends is for me to decide.”

“King Liszt, the war has really ended.”

Duraf continued with a grim face: “Perhaps you have the upper hand in this battlefield, but there is news I must relay to you–the battle at the Sapphire Duchy and Mind Island was merely a diversion; the real battlefield is at Heroic Yellow City… The gateway for the Flame Kingdom to the Legendary Continent is likely being baptized by the Dragons of the Eagle Kingdom; you need to rush over there to support immediately.”

Liszt raised an eyebrow.

With no expression on his face, he had already understood the full tactics of this battle.

The naval battle against the Sapphire Duchy was a probe, the siege on Mind Island a diversion to draw Liszt and his Dragons’ full attention here. Meanwhile, the rest of the Eagle Kingdom’s Dragons launched an attack on Heroic Yellow City, severing the Flame Kingdom’s reach toward the Legendary Continent.

From the start, Steel Ridge Kingdom and Eagle Kingdom planned to hit Heroic Yellow City, to contain the Flame Kingdom at sea.

Perhaps for these continental kingdoms, as dominant as Liszt might be, confined at sea, he could not threaten their rule.

“Let’s make concessions, King Liszt, on behalf of the Eagle Kingdom, I express an apology,” Warren, mounted on the Lead Dragon, his gaze much calmer than Tracy’s, “We take away the body of the Purple Sapphire Dragon Knight, and Duke Figo’s death cancels out the destruction of Heroic Yellow City. From now on, our two countries can still coexist peacefully.”

Heroic Yellow City and the Magic Gate are likely completely destroyed.

After such a long Dragon-slaying war, they had ample time to attack. Without Dragon Knights defending, it was simply impossible to stop the Dragons of the Eagle Kingdom.

A city and a gate were traded for the life of a Dragon.

Strictly speaking, Liszt made a huge profit by accepting Warren’s proposal, as it was an absolute bargain. But that was only on the surface. Liszt knew very well that peace could only be maintained through struggle, not through compromise. Pursue the defeated with relentless courage, but do not trade honor for temporary dominance.

The death of the Purple Sapphire Dragon was an unforgivable enmity. The Eagle Kingdom had long harbored deep-seated hatred for him, with no possibility of peace.

He spoke up quickly, “Alright, I can return the body of Duke Figo Iris to you and then let you leave this place.”

“I’m talking about the Purple Sapphire Dragon Knight, both the Dragon and its rider handed back to us.”

“Only the Knight, strictly limited to Duke Figo, understand?”

“It seems that King Liszt has no intention of accepting my proposal,” Warren said, bypassing Duraf to speak directly to Liszt in the name of the Eagle Kingdom.

During the standoff.

Little Water Dragon Walter had already grabbed Figo’s body and, under Liszt’s command, tossed it to Warren in a parabolic trajectory: “Take the body and get lost, or more will forever sleep in this sea… just like Carlo Violet, Loyle Purple Copper, and Figo Iris.”

As if answering to Liszt’s will at that moment, the many Dragons behind him roared in unison.

“Oh oh!”

“Roar!”

“Hu roar!”

“Wu yi ya!”

“Roar!”

“Yo ho!”

“Roar!”

“Roar!”

Hmph!

Riding on Unicorn Charlie and sitting atop Fire Dragon Leo’s head, Ach also snorted. Then her mount, the reluctant Unicorn, followed suit with a pronounced snort.

Eight (nine) Dragons, two Dragon Knights, one Archmage, and another Archmage who continued to oversee the Magic Array on Mind Island and did not accompany them. Such a lavish lineup exerted enormous pressure on the five Dragon Knights of the Steel-Valor Alliance, especially with Liszt and Bard, who flickered in and out of visibility.

Like venomous snakes lurking in the dark, ready to strike fatally at any moment–they were unclear about how Figo died, but it didn’t take much to guess that it was likely Liszt who had stealthily landed the killing blow.

Other Dragon Knights might fight for days and nights to determine a winner, but Liszt always required only a few exchanges, or even just a single sneak attack.

Catching Figo’s body, Lead Dragon Knight Warren took a deep breath and exchanged a glance with Tin Dragon Knight Duraf.

Closing his eyes for a few seconds, then opening them fiercely: “So be it, the entire war lies within a single thought of King Liszt. I hope His Majesty the King will act wisely.”
