Chapter 8: The Disgusting Prince Kararagi!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
If it was a brave person who had personally slayed a giant dragon, or an grand mage, King Karsten would definitely welcome him.
However, the person who came to the Kyanos Kingdom was just the prince of a neighboring country.
The king was very clear about the prince’s intentions. The Kararagi Empire was also a country on the border of the human territory map, but it could be considered a powerful country on the border.
The Kararagi Empire had a completely different philosophy from other countries on the border. The country advocated external invasion. Even the selection system for the crown prince made other countries tremble.
The emperor of Kararagi would sow countless seeds in his own country. These children of his, regardless of their status, could participate in the selection of the crown prince.
However, after the selection of the crown prince ended, there would only be a prince left among all the heirs!
This was because the selection of the crown prince was a killing battle with their brothers and sisters!
No matter what method was used, as long as only one person survived in the end, that person would be the crown prince of the Kararagi Empire in the future, and even the emperor of the empire in the future!
It was just because of this that every generation of the emperor of the Kararagi Empire was a true tyrant!
The old king was well aware of the prince’s intention for coming to the Kyanos Kingdom.
Although the Kararagi Empire was powerful at the borders, it does not invade other countries carelessly. The reason why the prince came to the Kyanos Kingdom this time was to find a reason to completely annex the kingdom!
Otherwise, invading other countries for no reason would even attract the attention of those powerful countries in the central plains. Once it was besieged, the Kararagi Empire would turn into a sea of fire within a day!
If Prince Geert was alive, and the Kyanos Kingdom would become a vassal of Kararagi in the future, and become the military power behind him.
But if he died, once the election for the crown prince of the Kararagi Empire was over, it was very likely that the first target of invasion would be the Kyanos Kingdom!
The old king was well aware of this. There was no free pie in the world to begin with.
However, after the prince arrived in the kingdom, he did not make these requests. He did not even ask for any benefits.
However, after the prince arrived in the Kyanos Kingdom, he acted as if he did not know anything. It seemed like he was not prepared to send troops to the Valley of Fire Dragon.
Therefore, the old king braced himself for the sake of his daughter and went to the place where the prince was temporarily staying.
Knock knock.
“Come in, the door isn’t locked.”
The young man inside seemed to have already known who it was, but he did not choose to welcome it personally. Instead, he let the other party enter by himself.
When the old king saw this, he held his breath but there was nothing he could do. He could only helplessly push the door open.
Just as he opened the door, he saw a young man with golden hair and blood-red eyes. He was dressed in golden armor.
The man’s appearance and temperament revealed a hint of danger, as if he was stained with the blood of hundreds of people.
If an ordinary person saw him, they would definitely choose to avoid him.
Such a dangerous person was the second-oldest prince of the Kararagi Empire.
Geert Kararagi!
At the same time, when the old king looked over, Prince Geert also raised his head. There was a hint of playfulness in his eyes, and he could not help but laugh.
“King Karsten, you are finally here!”
From his tone, the old king could feel the arrogance of the people of the empire. Logically speaking, only the emperor of the empire could speak to him like this!
How could a mere prince be so arrogant to the king of a country!
However, the old king endured it. For the sake of his only daughter, he still braced himself and answered,
“Prince Geert, I’m very happy that you come to this place. My daughter Amy is in the lair of the evil dragon. Can you be sure that you can successfully vanquish that giant dragon in the Valley of Fire Dragon?”
The old king simply did not beat around the bush and asked straightforwardly.
After hearing this, Geert laughed loudly. Then, he stood up and said in a humble tone,
“It’s just a giant dragon. These giant dragons are nothing more than a group of stinky lizards with wings to our Kararagi Empire! The group of stinky lizards are only fit to be the mounts for the people of our empire! I didn’t expect that your country would be so helpless!”
Seeing that the old king did not speak, Geert continued:
“In my empire, the weakest flying dragon that every prince is equipped with is at the level of a great-half-dragon! My mount has even broken through to the level of a half-dragon! Therefore, Your Majesty, don’t worry. Even if I go alone, there won’t be any mistake!”
“Moreover, on this journey, I still have a cavalry regiment composed of up to three thousand Ground Dragons and Wyverns.”
“Let me add something here. Most of the Ground Dragons or Wyverns that I personally trained have already reached the level of a great-half-dragon. Does His Majesty King Karsten think that my personal expedition will fail this time?”
After the old king heard it, his expression changed drastically.
Wyverns and Grand Dragons belonged to the dragon race. Other than the dragon-blood lizard, they are the weakest parts of the bloodline, which were also the easiest to tame for humans.
However, he did not expect that every prince’s mount of the empire was at the standard of an half-dragon!
The terrifying thing was that the prince’s personal mount of the cavalry was actually at the standard of a great-half-dragon!
And this was only the military strength of a prince of the Kararagi Empire!
One could imagine just what kind of terrifying country the Kararagi Empire was!
It was likely that just the strength that Prince Geert possessed was enough to take down the entire Kyanos Kingdom!
“This…”
Without waiting for the old king to finish speaking, Prince Geert once again interrupted with a laugh.
“This time, I still need the help of the Kyanos Kingdom for my position as crown prince. I have also reached the age of marriage. For this, I hope that after this matter is over, the old king can use the name of marriage to help me in getting the position of crown prince. What do you think?”
When Geert said this, he did not seem to have any pause. Who could imagine how many times he had used such technique?
And this was also true. As the prince of the empire, he already made countless marriage alliance requests with other countries.
Even if the princess of the Kyanos Kingdom wanted to serve him every day, it would be many days later before her turn.
As the Prince of Kararagi, if he paid attention to his face and did not receive the protection he deserved, he might even be assassinated before he became an adult.
Moreover, the border of Continent of Gran was not a place where the dragon clan frequented. At most, there would only be some half-dragons appearing.
Given his own mount alone could contend with the half-dragon for a long time, not to mention his 3,000 Wyverns and the Ground Dragons cavalry regiment!
Wouldn’t it be easy to take it down?
This was something that the old king did not know or could not see.
It seemed that a marriage alliance would bring great benefits to the kingdom.
He had been on guard, thinking about what the prince would do, but then he thought of Amy, who was still in the dragon’s lair.
Even if the Kyanos kingdom annexed by the empire…
The worst that could happen was that the status of the royal family would be lowered. But if he lost his own daughter, what use would the status of the royal family for?
Would there still be people who chose to live in a kingdom that could not even protect their daughter?
It was only a matter of time before the kingdom was ruined!
Thinking of this, the old king immediately agreed. “Sigh! Since Prince Geert is so sincere, then I will agree to it. May I ask, when can we send troops to vanquish the evil dragon?”
He saw Geert took out a transparent bottle from somewhere, and then he forcefully threw it on the ground.
With the sound, the broken pieces of the bottle turned into streaks of golden light and disappeared into the air.
It was a magic equipment!
Just as the old king was shocked by how much Prince Geert had, a group of Flying Dragons of various colors suddenly appeared in the sky above the Kyanos Kingdom!
Looking at the excited old king, Prince Geert looked indifferent on his face, but in fact, he was so excited that he wanted to jump up and down.
If he killed the half-dragon, bathed in dragon blood to strengthen his body, and eventually won the position of crown prince, then he would have the Kyanos Kingdom as bullet bait.
Wouldn’t that be killing four birds with one stone?
