Reincarnated As A Demonic Dragon, I Formed A Pact With A Beautiful Female Lord

Chapter 68 - 68 In the End I Couldn’t Protect Anything


68 In the End, I Couldn’t Protect Anything

The dark clouds in the sky parted, and the warm sun shone down on the ground. It was as if the sky had cleared after a heavy rain and the earth had regained its vitality.

Su Wan and Shi Linglong approached Xu Yuan. Xu Yuan had already returned to his mini dragon form when they reached him.

The Dark Dragon King remained in his gigantic form. He fell to the ground, creating a massive pit.

...

“Scammer Xu,” said Su Wan. “How is the Dark Dragon King?” She was worried.

Xu Yuan was too lazy to answer. He pointed at the Dark Dragon King with his claw, letting Su Wan see it for herself.

The incomparably huge Dark Dragon King behind Xu Yuan finally opened his eyes. Even the size of his eye was as large as a house. His huge pupil stared down at everyone.

There was no red in his eye this time. Su Wan realized that the Dark Dragon King had regained his consciousness. He wasn’t aggressive and domineering like before. He did not roar recklessly.

He gazed at Su Wan and Xu Yuan calmly. The atmosphere was too quiet. Nobody spoke a word, and the Dark Dragon King kept staring at everyone in a daze.

After a while, Shi Linglong couldn’t take the silence anymore and decided to say something. “Senior Dark Dragon King, are you feeling a little more awake now?”

The Dark Dragon swayed. “Thank you for your help. I do feel like I have recovered from my madness temporarily.”

‘Temporarily?’ Su Wan and Shi Linglong exchanged glances. They realized that the current situation wasn’t the end of everything. The Dark Dragon King would go crazy again.

“Is there anything we can do to help?” asked Shi Linglong. She thought she was about to receive another mission.

She felt like a gamer in an online game who was about to get a hidden quest to unlock something significant.

The Dark Dragon King smiled bitterly. “What can you do for me? I only want happiness.” He turned to Su Wan. “She is no longer here, is she?”

Shi Linglong looked confused. She didn’t know who he was referring to. But Su Wan knew who he meant. The Dark Dragon King was concerned about his Overlord, the white-haired young woman.

‘Did he already know that the white-haired woman had not completely disappeared from this dimension?’ wondered Su Wan.

She had a lot of doubts in her heart, but she didn’t express them yet. She answered his question first.

“Senior, are you talking about your Overlord? She explained some things to me and then disappeared.”

The Dark Dragon King let out a long sigh and lowered his head. “I ended up in this situation willingly to protect the last trace of her soul. In the end, I couldn’t protect anything.”

Everything that had happened in the past resurfaced. After the white-haired woman was betrayed by the Lord she loved, she was injured fatally. The Dark Dragon King risked his life to save her. However, the white-haired Lord was attacked by the Dark Screen, which eventually led to her death.

The Dark Dragon King had used a secret technique of the Dark Dragon Clan to seal the last trace of his Lord’s soul in his mind. He had used his own soul and sanity to nourish her soul, hoping that she would wake one day.

However, doing so had turned out to be too much of a burden on his mind. He had spent almost all his energy nurturing his Lord’s remnant soul. This was partly the reason for his madness. The major cause for his insanity was because of the Dark Screen’s methods.

When the Dark Screen had discovered the Dark Dragon King’s problem, they had targeted his soul. The Dark Dragon King’s soul was injured during the battle, which was why he went completely mad.

“He is truly in love,” muttered Su Wan in a low voice. She glanced at Xu Yuan. She wondered if he would have done the same for her.

Just as Su Wan’s mind was filled with all these thoughts, Xu Yuan did something that made her blood boil in frustration again. He seemed indifferent to anything happening around him. He yawned and found a place where he could snuggle and continue to sleep.

‘This lazy worm! Sleeping at a time like this! Will he die if he doesn’t sleep for just a moment in a day?’ Su Wan was miffed.

She calmed herself down. ‘He must be exhausted because of the fight with the Dark Dragon King. It’s understandable that he wants to take a nap.’

Su Wan didn’t know how she had felt before this about Xu Yuan. But, at this point, she cared about him. She even came up with explanations to justify his behavior.

The Dark Dragon King looked sorrowful. “She’s completely gone…,” he said softly. “The meaning of my life is lost now.”

Su Wan and Shi Linglong felt that something was going to go terribly wrong. Si Linglong was the first to speak. “Senior Dark Dragon king, don’t take things too hard!”

Shi Linglong and Su Wan thought that the Dark Dragon King couldn’t take the fact that his Lord’s soul was completely gone now, so he wanted to leave this world and follow his Lord.

However, the Dark Dragon King laughed heartily. “Don’t worry. I won’t die before I am done with my revenge!”

The meaning of the Dark Dragon King’s life was revenge!

“I don’t know how long I can stay awake,” he said. “But I have only one purpose now, and that is to kill all the members of the Dark Screen!”

The Dark Dragon King was determined to end them all. He took advantage of his sane state now to prepare for his funeral. He looked at Su Wan.

“I don’t know what she must have told you, but if she chose you, it must mean that she trusts you. Before we part ways, I hope you take this small gift.”

The sky suddenly turned blood-red. A red force poured into Su Wan and Shi Linglong.
