Crossing the true dragon realm, and you call me Little Locke?

"Hiss~!"

A chill ran down Shuoyang's spine for no apparent reason, and he shivered.

He immediately became alert.

Although he couldn't predict the future like Jinlong, his sixth sense was still quite accurate.

So this inexplicable feeling is unsettling.

Shuoyang cautiously scanned his surroundings, beginning to search for the source of his alarm.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing that he suddenly became alert, Violet also became more vigilant.

"Something doesn't feel right!"

Shuoyang scanned everyone in the hall and replied, "Something might be going to happen."

"You be careful too, see if anything is wrong."

"Oh," Violet didn't laugh at his suspicion.

Instead, he immediately stopped eating and began to scan the people in the hall.

But after searching for a long time, the siblings found that everything in the hall remained the same.

Even because of Galle's hasty escape and their strange sudden act of alertness.

This attracted the attention of one of Rena's knights.

Looking at the suspicious Shuoyang siblings, he finally couldn't hold back.

He left his post.

He strode up to Shuoyang and warned, "Long, watch your manners."

"Don't act like a country bumpkin and damage a lady's reputation."

"..." Shuoyang glanced at him.

I didn't sense any danger from him.

So he ignored the man and continued searching for the things that made him inexplicably uneasy.

The knight was furious that the man dared to ignore him.

He was the second son of a marquis in the capital, named Edgar Peyton.

Two years ago, during his travels and adventures, he was attracted by Lena's beauty and unique temperament.

So he bravely joined Lena's ranks and, based on his background and strength, became the city defense captain of Baiyang Port.

As a young man in his early twenties, he naturally had certain feelings for Lena.

After all, compared to those suitors from outside the marriage market.

He could be considered one of our own, so he had the advantage of being close to us.

The appearance of Shuoyang shattered all his illusions.

He never imagined that he would become the greatest enemy on his path to becoming his lord.

It wasn't a high-ranking mage of the same age who was a disciple of the Queen, nor was it one of those talented young men who also came from the capital.

It wasn't even human!

It is an arrogant four-legged lizard with extremely vulgar speech and behavior.

This made him deeply prejudiced against Shuoyang.

Therefore, after being ignored by Shuoyang, he immediately took off his iron gauntlets.

He was ready to throw it at Shuoyang's face, challenging the "evil dragon" that had stolen his "beloved" lord.

Anyway, in his "little tricks".

Because he was worried about his identity being exposed, Shuoyang would certainly not dare to reveal his true form.

And then they fought a giant dragon that had transformed into human form but had lost all its power.

Edgar was still very confident; he had even begun to fantasize about the perfect life he would have after slaying the dragon, gaining fame, fortune, and beautiful women.

However, he hadn't taken off his gauntlets yet.

Violet possesses a certain level of Ranger skill and has extremely keen senses.

But then he suddenly pointed at several human nobles who had just entered the hall.

Chong Shuoyang said, "Agripa, it's them!"

"They have the aura of the dead on them."

Upon hearing this, Shuoyang was somewhat puzzled.

Because these "nobles" did not make him feel threatened.

But he did not doubt his sister's identification.

He didn't know whether these "people" were the source of the crisis that made him feel uneasy.

Shuoyang immediately took out two Poké Balls.

Driven by certain deeply ingrained memories, he shouted in a rather childish and dramatic way, "You're the one I've chosen!"

"Fireworks, Platinum Unicorn, take them down!"

A flash of white light appeared, revealing a creature with a pair of jet-black bat wings and wearing a studded collar.

Its upper body resembles a fire demon, with a powerful, crimson-flame humanoid form and demonic horns on its head; its lower body resembles a fire elemental, composed of jet-black flame tornadoes, with flame arrow tails at the end.

A platinum unicorn, resembling a pure white steed but with a blue horn, mane, and four hooves, appeared out of nowhere.

They ignored everything and charged straight at the nobles who had just entered.

The others in the hall were so frightened that they hurriedly hid and screamed.

"Baroness! Unicorn?"

Seeing these two completely opposite camps charging towards him side by side.

Those "nobles" who had just sneaked into the banquet.

Like everyone else in the hall, my brain went blank for a moment.

Fireworks and the Platinum Unicorn didn't care why they were stunned.

One of them unleashed a fiery cloud chariot, transforming into a rolling wheel of fire that directly crushed the people.

One of them used refraction to release more than a dozen flashing prisms, which covered those people.

"Get out of the way!"

The attack was imminent, and the group finally reacted.

With a "bang," they exploded into several clouds of blood mist.

The next moment, the fiery cloud chariot roared past, pure white flashes leaping and refracting between the prisms.

The wisps of blood mist that were burning together made a sizzling sound as they melted away.

"It's a vampire!"

Upon seeing this, Shuoyang, Violet, Galle, Reina, and the others immediately realized what was happening.

Almost at the same time.

Sensing something was wrong in the hall, more than a dozen dark figures rushed in.

Their pupils were bloodshot, their faces were pale, and they all had sharp teeth and claws.

Clearly, like those guys who infiltrated posing as nobles, he was also a vampire.

"What the hell!?"

Upon entering the hall, one sees fireworks and a platinum unicorn.

The vampires who came to provide support were all taken aback.

It was this brief hesitation that gave Shuoyang an opportunity.

He shouted at Lena, "It's from the Twilight Court! I have to turn back into my original form!"

"No!!"

Lena, who had remained calm and composed in the face of the attack, was startled by his words.

She yelled, "Do you want to collapse this place and crush everyone?"

"You hide yourself, we'll take care of things here."

Having said that, she feared that Shuoyang would not listen to her advice and would act recklessly.

He then unleashed the strongest spell he currently possessed—the ninth-circle spell, Time Stop.

An invisible wave spread out, and the hall fell silent instantly.

Everything, everything, including the flickering flames and the panicked crowds.

At that moment, everything seemed frozen in place, completely still.

Only Lena remained calm, carefully avoiding the crowd and finding the right angle.

He pointed towards the center of those vampires and unleashed an eighth-ring spell: Sunfire Burst.

A flash of golden light appeared, and the intense sunlight, like the midday sun, instantly engulfed all the vampires.

The next moment, the light dissipated, and the time-stopping effect ceased.

Everyone in the hall, including Shuoyang, let out a muffled groan.

Then, screams of agony began to rang out one after another.

"My eyes!" "I can't see!"

"Is it really necessary?"

Shuoyang rubbed his eyes.

He complained to Lena with a look of utter disappointment, "Fine, I won't change if you won't let me!"

"Do you really need to make such a fuss?"

"Tch," Lena scoffed dismissively.

How could she not know what kind of person Shuoyang was?

If she had been even a fraction slower, Shuoyang would have revealed his true form and shattered the castle.

And those vampires, after taking a full hit of her Yangyan Explosion...

They were all covered in burns, looking like roasted shrimp.

Their flesh was charred and their bodies were bent over.

Amidst the embers and thick smoke, a horrific scream emanated.
