Red Dragon has magic

Chapter 130 I Want to Be a Fisherman

Even the Earth is far from peaceful, with people dying every day in several war-torn areas, not to mention this world, where fighting and killing can be seen everywhere and is not surprising at all.

Leon had thought it was just an ordinary fight, between dwarves and orcs, goblins, or maybe dwarves and gray dwarves. The latter was a whole nation turning against each other due to bitterness and resentment, which turned into an endless dispute. He hadn't expected that the protagonists of the fight were actually fire giants.

The challenge level of the Fire Giant is not low, and the battle with the Fire Giant as the protagonist must be watched carefully. Leon found a hill far away to land, and then quickly transformed into a human form to avoid being too conspicuous. At the same time, he was thankful that the battle was so intense that no one discovered him.

"Fire giants fighting dwarves?" Cecilia landed next to Leon. She liked to watch the fun and wanted to observe the battle up close, but she really didn't have the courage. Her level was only good enough to fight one fire giant at best, and it would be difficult to fight two fire giants.

"There are also humans." Leon reminded.

Cecilia blinked and asked, "Did the fire giant capture slaves?"

Fire giants are lawful evil, they like to enslave other creatures to complete low-tech labor so that they can focus on more important things, such as casting and manufacturing, etc., which only they can operate. However, compared with fire giants, they are better masters, not very cruel masters, and of course not very kind.

In this case, the fire giants like dwarves the most, and they think dwarves are ideal slaves. Because even if they are captured and forced to work, dwarves will be driven by their nature and do their best to complete the task at hand. Even simple labor can bring some sense of freedom from captivity to dwarf slaves.

"No, it's not the fire giants coming down the mountain to capture slaves." Leon looked at the smoking volcano, thinking that they were originally coming for the volcano. He saw a flowing lava river passing through the iron hall halfway up the mountain. "It's not the fire giants coming down the mountain to capture slaves. It's more like those humans and dwarves attacking the fire giants."

Leon looked at it carefully, frowned slightly, and said, "I saw fire giants fighting fire giants, so it was humans, dwarves and fire giants joining forces to attack other fire giants."

"It's not that the fire giants capture slaves, nor that humans join forces with dwarves to fight the fire giants. I can also imagine a civil war among the fire giants..." Cecilia said, "What about humans, dwarves, and fire giants joining forces to attack other fire giants?"

Leon glanced at Cecilia and said, “I now order you as my master, my maid, to investigate the reason for their fight.”

“Me?” Cecilia hid behind Leon. She didn’t want to die yet. “Brother, don’t say such terrible things. I don’t want to die yet.”

Leon did not make things difficult for Cecilia. He was unwilling to get involved in the battle in front of him for fear of encountering danger. What's more, Cecilia was just an ordinary green dragon.

"I saw the hellhound," Cecilia said suddenly.

Cerberus are powerful, dog-like, fire-breathing demonic monsters found throughout the Lower Planes, and on the Material Plane, often serving as animal guards and companions to devils, fire giants, and other evil creatures.

Leon looked carefully and he also found the hellhound. He saw that the hellhound was knocked down by a hammer from a heavily armored dwarf, and then hit again. Then it was quickly burned to ashes by the uncontrolled infernal fire in its body. Only charred fur was left in the billowing smoke and burning ashes.

Cecilia was much more careful than Leon. She soon discovered other anomalies and said, "I saw that some of the other fire giants that the humans, dwarves and fire giants attacked together had horns on their heads and a tail."

As soon as Cecilia said that, Leon also saw it clearly, his expression became solemn, and he said: "Hellfire Murderer, that is the Hellfire Murderer... I didn't expect to see the Hellfire Murderer besides the Evil Flame Fire Giant." "I heard the master talk about the Evil Flame Fire Giant. The master's weapon was forged with the help of an Evil Flame Fire Giant." Cecilia had little experience, and the knowledge inherited from her parents was only some basics, not that rich. "What's the matter with the Hellfire Murderer?"

"The Evil Flame Fire Giant is a fire giant that gazed too deeply into the flames and succumbed to the corruption of the evil Fire Elemental Prince Immish." Lyon said, "The Hellfire Murderer is a fire giant that became corrupted inevitably because he became addicted to bloody battles and made a contract with a powerful devil."

Cecilia said with amusement: "Are fire giants so easily corrupted?"

“If the fire giant hadn’t been corrupted, we wouldn’t have been able to see such a spectacular scene,” Lyon said.

Cecilia remained noncommittal and said, "If those fire giants were corrupted and turned into Hellfire Murderers, then this battle is easy to understand. It's the fire giants joining forces with humans and dwarves to fight against the Hellfire Murderers, the traitors who defected to the evil."

Leon nodded. He felt that there was nothing wrong with Cecilia's guess. At most, it was just a matter of details.

"I think this is a good opportunity." Cecilia touched her lips and suddenly said, "We can wait until they are both exhausted and then show up to kill the remaining people. Then the Fire Giant Fortress will be ours, including the farms at the foot of the mountain."

"Even if the master doesn't want to stay here." Cecilia continued, "There must be many treasures hidden in that fire giant fortress."

When facing kind creatures, such as Pixies, Leon would not feel comfortable bullying them as long as they did not provoke him. If the other side belonged to the evil camp, he would not feel any psychological pressure to fight against them.

"You are such an instigator." Leon admitted that he was a little moved.

Rather than defeating the enemy head-on, the Green Dragon prefers conspiracies and intrigues, and likes to achieve victory through deception, inducement, instigation, bribery, threats, provocation, etc. Cecilia is no exception. When she heard Leon's words, she felt it was a compliment and couldn't help but smile.

"It looks like the Hellfire Brutalists are losing ground," Cecilia said. "Shouldn't you help them to prevent them from being defeated all at once? Humans, dwarves, and fire giants all have a bad relationship with red dragons, so it's a good idea for you to help the Hellfire Brutalists."

“If you don’t want this piece of land…” Cecilia’s plan was good, but Leon had other ideas, “Why don’t I just break into the fire giant fortress, rob it and run away?”

Lyon was eager to try, but he never thought that there would come a day when he would benefit from the conflict between the two sides.

Therefore, how could he sneak into that iron-cast hall without making any noise? It seemed that he could only use the gathering and dispersion of energy to sneak through invisibly.

Anyway, the fighting outside was so intense, there was no way anyone was still in the Iron Hall.
