Unrivaled Under The Heaven - Chapter 173
The dragon was only shocked for a few seconds before he sped off into the distance while leaving Jason behind covered in dust. He thought of spending things up also but decided to wait until the time is right before he will do so.
Keeping his pace, Jason was able to catch up with the dragon after some time but whenever he thought of overtaking the dragon, it will just increase its speed as Jason would be left behind once more and it continues like this and Jason was beginning to suspect that the dragon was playing with him. Which gave him a perfect plan.
When he got close to the dragon this time around, instead of overtaking it, Jason brought out his halberd and knocked the dragon on the head which stunned it for a while and before he recovered from the state, Jason has already gotten far but the dragon could see a happy look on his face as he had his tongue out like he was making fun of him.
“I was thinking of going easy on you but since you prefer the hard way, then that is what I will do” said the dragon angrily as it let out a roar before spreading its wings and flipping them for some time than swinging down on the lake.
It was just a casual swing but the lake of fire begin to surge from side to side before forming a huge wave as it went after Jason.
“Be careful Jason, there seems to be powerful energy heading your way” warned the bracelet.
Turning around to take a look at what it was that is heading his way only for him to see the mighty fire wave that is chasing after him with the dragon levitating in mid-air, he knew straight away that it was the dragon.
“Mr dragon, I only gave you a light touch on your head. Do you have to go that far as to seek my life” said Jason who was almost in tears.
“You only gave him a light touch you say, don’t worry he is also going to give you a warm bath so you don’t have to worry about a thing” commented the bracelet with a chuckle.
“He is just going to give me a warm bath but, what I am seeing here behind me doesn’t seem to be a warm bath and if I don’t make a run for it, I will lose my life in there” replies Jason with a twitching face.
He Increase his pace as he try to make it to the finish line before the lake of fire could get to him but no matter how fast he is, he still couldn’t outrun the lake of fire and before long the lake was already falling on him and left with no other choice, Jason took a powerful jump to the sky as he manages to avoid the mighty splash of the lake of fire before turning to the dragon as he yelled at him.
“What is wrong with you, are you trying to get me killed”.
“I thought you wanted to play dirty when you strike me first” said the dragon with a proud smile on his face.
“I was only playing with you, if I wanted you dead I would have stabbed my weapon into that head of yours” said Jason.
“Oh please, do you think that your weapon is strong enough to penetrate my defense? Don’t make me laugh” scoff the dragon.
He decided to ignore the dragon since the fellow is more shameless than him so he decided to continue with the race as he let loose before dashing towards the door and seeing Jason taking advantage of the moment, the dragon let out a roar before dashing forward as well with a trail of fire following behind him.
Now they were competing for who would make it to the finish line and it doesn’t seem to be an ordinary competition as they both let out attack after attack in the hope of taking the other party down but no matter how hard they try, their attack never seem to get to the other while they are getting close to the finish line.
“You have to make it to the finish line before he does, else it would be classified as his loss,” said the bracelet.
“Don’t worry, I have a plan” replied Jason as he stared at the dragon.
“You actually had a plan” asked the bracelet in shock. Since the day he has met the young man, he has always remained dependent on him so when he heard him saying he had a plan, he was shocked.
“Yeah, just watch what I am about to do” he replied before pushing off.
When they have gotten seven kilometers away from the door, Jason suddenly turned to the dragon and yelled.
“Hey, dragon I heard that your master has been a useless ruler before his death is that true”.
Hearing the young man talking about his master, the dragon couldn’t help but stop in his track as he replied angrily.
“My master has always been unmatched as a ruler before his death so who are you to call him useless”.
“Got you there big guy” said Jason with a chuckle as he was now standing in front of the door.
“You trick me” said the dragon in bewilderment.
“You got that right, Wait did you actually think you could win me” reply Jason with a chuckle.
“I’m going to kill you brat” roar the dragon before flipping his wing as he prepares to launch an attack.
Seeing the dragon is about to make a move on him, Jason quickly yelled for aid knowing fully well that he won’t be a match for him.
“Hey, when are you going to tell your dragon to hold his anger, or haven’t I won the race”.
“Well you angered him so it is only right if you quench his anger by yourself since you decided to use my name as a trump card to win” reply the skeleton.
“Then who is going to inherit your legacy if I were to end up dead” said Jason.
The skeleton could only let out a sigh before ordering his dragon to stop since his word makes some sense.
