<h4>Chapter 140: Crimson Dragon''s entrance</h4>


    "We will take over Kayu Province today and connect with our allies from the other side!" Maya shouted as she raised her swordced in golden light!


    Her guild members lifted their weapons as well, ready to fight the opponents, separating them from their allies.


    Those allies from the other side were Alex Loyalty and his noble family.


    He also had skillful yers joining him, so it was finally time to connect the dots and be a powerful force against those dark times!


    Reylin knew that it wouldn''t be so easy, however, "Blue Rose Kingdom sent their people here. Besides, ck Rose will be lingering in the shadows... Their target, guild masters and me."


    "Why are you so worried? Let''s get over this speech and fight! I want to face them all!" Steel Melody rolled her eyes at him, poked his side with an elbow, then let out heartyughter that many had heard beforehand.


    She was pretty impatient!


    Reylin nced at her, "To speak yournguage, we are in a quest of a bigger scale. I wouldn''t be able to fix it alone... That''s why I am serious."


    He sighed, but Steel Melody was all smiles nheless.


    She smirked at him and patted Reylin''s shoulder, "You are worried about Lioness and Bear, aren''t you? Haha! How cute! You want them to seed, Mr. Boyfriend!"


    Reylin clicked his tongue, "I do. And I want you to die a few times." He struck her side with his elbow as well.


    That was when the speech from both guild members ended.


    Reylin also contacted Alex Loyalty through his system and confirmed the operation.


    The operation was indeed simple, and that was to conquest the whole province for themselves. They would need a lot of people for that since it was pretty bignd!


    From the intel gathered beforehand, it was clear the Blue Rose Kingdom saw through their intent! An army of well-disciplined and tough soldiers had already stationed themselves through all critical cities.


    The borders were naturally protected as well!


    "Soldiers have been prepared to die at any moment. Kill only if necessary, though!" Lioness''s voice rang out from the side.


    She notified everyone about her intent to keep the residents alive! Of course, soldiers from the blue kingdom weren''t just soldiers by name, so killing them if necessary was a correct call. No one objected to themander and guild leader!


    Naturally, a few strong parties have been made as well.


    Reylin was left with Emilia and Steel Melody.


    He didn''t need anyone else.


    Besides, he was also the man who started the whole battle!


    As Maya and Aria''s eyesnded on him, he nodded and strutted forward.


    Twodies silently followed him.


    When the army of Blue Rose Kingdom unfurled before him, Reylin arched his head back. He nced at the dark sky with ck clouds teemed in a dense umbre. Those clouds utterly erased the sun from existence.


    "Crimson Dragon," Reylin whispered.


    In an instant, the dark clouds scattered, and scarlet color coalesced into Crimson Dragon''s pce. Those clouds shone brightly and rained light onto Reylin''s allies.


    One could see a tremendous dragon slithering and baring its fangs at the army below!


    That army consisted of soldiers and mages.


    Mages were from the Mage''s Union, and they had been subjugated by Princess Rose. She killed anyone who didn''t want to listen to her orders, making other residents heed her.


    She was one of the new additions to King Julian''s family. Still, Princess Rose kept her chastity and ordered her people without her new king''s help. Although it was a true force, it would change in the future, as per Princess Rose''s belief.


    Yvonne also wasn''t a reason why King Julian didn''t take Princess Rose as his concubine! Her hatred and bottled emotions within her heart were the reason.


    Those feelings sometimes slipped outside and contorted her face, which King Julian wasn''t fond of.


    Soldiers and Mages.


    Those were the forces Reylin and his allies had to deal with.


    "There are two reasons why Reylin begins the battle," Emilia said as she gazed at the Crimson Dragon with her heart pounding out loud!


    Steel Melody pouted, "I know one! Still, I want to fight from the beginning!"


    Countless magic shields shed from the ground.


    Blue Kingdom''s mages brought them out and formedyer afteryer to protect their border from yers. As Princess Rose predicted Reylin would start the battle, those shields were anti-fire ones.


    Red shields formed a mini-castle to match the Crimson Dragon''s home!


    ROAR!


    That roar ridiculed their work and deemed it pointless!


    Now, it was time to prove its words!


    Crimson Dragon''s head popped out from the scarlet clouds, then its form rushed at the border! Its jaw parted, and methrower gushed forth with unprecedented speed. It was so fast that yers called it Red Laser!


    That power hurtled and mmed into the mages'' shield in less than ten seconds!


    BANG!


    It didn''t even begin with cracks! Shields shattered like papers and dispersed into thousands of shards that floated around the Crimson Dragon''s head! It roared at mages again, toppling them backward, then spread into raw mana!


    Emilia smiled widely, "We can''t waste our resources against the mages'' wall... On the other hand, all Reylin needs is mana. That''s why he should start it!"


    She trembled from excitement and pride, then patted Reylin''s hair, "The second reason is naturally because he is the strongest!"


    Emilia nced at all yers passing by to charge at the mages and soldiers.


    She held Reylin''s arm as the Crimson Dragon forced him to use too much mana at once! He would''ve lost his bnce were it not for Emilia''s help!


    He smiled and said, "I will regenerate fast enough and return to the battle. I didn''t use my armor, so it should be a quick recovery."


    To use Reylin''s strength the most, his Crimson Dragon had to appear first on the battleground.


    Reylin didn''t have any problem with that, but as he had predicted before, ck Rose would try to aim for him and his beloved.


    He turned his eyes to the side, "We have our first guests."


    Emilia and Steel Melody was looking in that direction as well.


    "Haha! I forgot! I forgot that the best opponents gather around Rey! You can leave me for too long, or I will forget that joy again!" A masochist pped Reylin''s back, then stepped forth to protect him from the assassins.


    Emilia and Reylin stared at Steel Melody''s back with squinted eyes, then Emilia added, "You''ve my support."


    "Sure thing, sexy chick!" Steel Melody burst outughing again!
