Upon hearing the name of "the one with the severed finger", the fire giant's veins suddenly popped out, flames seemed to come out of his eyes, and smoke rose from his body.

He drew the gold-inlaid scimitar from his waist again, and the tip of the knife flashed with cold light, pointing towards the source of the sound.

"Finally I caught you!"

"What on earth are you up to? How dare you insult a great efreeti noble like this, and insult the emir sent by the Grand Sultan to govern you!"

"Are you questioning the rule of the Grand Sultan and the guidance of the Flame God?"

Hamid is committing a crime.

He wanted to let this ungrateful guy see his power.

This is to establish authority!
You must know that the fire giants practice tyranny, and these fire giant nobles who serve as pashas and emirs represent the will of the Grand Sultan.

There is a huge gap in status between the fire giant nobles and the citizens.

Everyone attending the banquet made way, and saw that the direction where the knife was pointing was an ordinary fire giant wearing a turban.

"What's your name?"

Hamid demanded, a cruel smile on his face.

The fire giant raised his head and looked directly at the exceptionally tall fire giant noble, with a hint of mockery on his face.

"Haha, it's not important."

"Dear Lord Hamid, do you recognize this object?"

Under the curious gazes of the fire giants, he calmly took out a ring from his pocket.

A shining golden ring with a flickering flame aura on its surface.

"hiss--"

“This is actually.”

"This, how is this possible?"

All the fire giants present who saw the ring looked horrified and gasped, even the fire giant noble Hamid.

The reason is simple - this is the ring that Hamid lost, the ring worn on the finger cut off by humans!
"Who the hell are you?"

"How did you get in!"

"How did this ring end up in your hand?"

Hamid concealed the surprise that flashed across his eyes, put on airs, and asked loudly.

His mind was already somewhat confused. In his opinion, the "fire giant" in front of him was not pretending to be fearless!
"Of course you came in through the secret passage. The fire dwarves who built this city hate you to the core."

"Tsk tsk, you fire giants claim to be the most civilized and intelligent race in the Elemental Plane of Fire."

"Now it seems that they are just so-so, not even as good as the ogres under my command."

"who I am--"

The "fire giant"'s body was flickering with tiny bits of magical light, and it seemed that a drastic change was about to take place.

"You are so shameless!"

"boom!"

Hamid was about to retort, but he found that the figure in front of him suddenly expanded, forcing him to look up.

"Flame God above."

"how can that be"

Shrouded in shadow, the fire giant noble muttered to himself.

Suddenly, an enormous red dragon appeared. Its towering back shattered the glass chandelier on the ceiling, and its broad wings covered half of the hall.

Cassius lowered his head slightly, looking down at the fire giant noble under him with his golden pupils, and a ferocious smile appeared on the dragon face.

"It's so obvious, can't you guess it?"

He finished the second half of his sentence and continued jokingly:

"I am the ruler of the country you want to destroy, and the lord you want to trample underfoot, respected Hamid 'Lord'."

The Fire Giant noble was trembling all over, and he kept muttering in a low voice: "Great, Great Ancient Dragon, no, he is even bigger than the Great Ancient Red Dragon."

"Damn it, how can such a thing exist in the material plane? This kind of red dragon should be accompanying Tiamat in Baator!"

Hamid raised his head. His red face turned a little pale, and a forced smile appeared on it.

"Lord Dragon, I think there may be some misunderstanding between us."

"Your family misunderstood"

He explained feebly.

Cassius lowered his head, looked at the fire giant's nervous face, and sneered.

"Misunderstand?"

"I don't see any misunderstanding."

The Red Dragon's voice became heavier and more powerful, and his tone gradually changed from light-hearted to angry.

"Arrogant and ignorant efreet, I did not see any misunderstanding. I saw you insulting me, hunting down my followers, and besieging my army."

"I wanted to give you one last chance to atone for your sins, but you humiliated me in person, attempted to destroy my kingdom, and even trampled me underfoot!"

At this time, his voice was as loud as thunder, echoing loudly in the brass palace.

"I came here with the sincerity of the empire for the cooperation between the two parties, but you chose to become my enemy without hesitation!" "Then I will make you and your people pay the price you deserve!"

"Roar--"

The roar of the dragon echoed throughout the city.

The majestic dragon power spread out, causing all living beings in the city to feel oppressed from the bottom of their souls.

Whether it was the hard-working fire dwarves, fire lizards, and fire giant slaves, or the fire giant overseers whipping their workers, they all felt a palpitation in their hearts.

"Come on!"

"Protect Lord Emil!"

"That's not an enemy we can resist!"

The fire giants in the hall were suddenly panicked and fled in all directions.

The Fire Giants are a brave race, but faced with a red dragon of this size, even the bravest and most tenacious Fire Giant warriors will lose their courage and flee.

The fire giants rose into the air one after another, their lower bodies turning into a cloud of smoke and embers.

As the most powerful noble among them, Hamid flew desperately in the front, still shouting.

"Guards! Cover me!"

"Don't let him catch up!"

His speed was particularly fast, which reflected the noble's powerful spellcasting ability.

Cassius was not in a hurry to enjoy this delicious meal. He just stretched his wings slowly and then opened his mouth.

"Buzz——"

Suddenly, a turbulent vortex of magic appeared in his mouth, and a powerful attraction filled the palace - it was still [Dragon Absorption].

"Do not--"

“What a strong attraction!”

"Lord Emir, I can't stand it anymore! Help!"

The few fire giant guards who were left behind tried their best to fly, but were still sucked in by the black hole-like wave of magic.

"Ahhhh!"

"Dedicate yourself to the Great Sultan!"

"O Allah of the Flame, damned reptile, die!"

Seeing that they could no longer escape, the fire giant guards roared loudly and launched a counterattack at the last moment of their lives.

Scimitars were swung, arrows flew, and scorching fireworks attacked.

However, all this had no effect on the huge and terrifying red dragon, not even enough to tickle it.

"laugh--"

The sound of air bursting.

Cassius spewed out raging flames, engulfing all the fire giants.

"Do not--"

"How could I be engulfed in flames?"

“I don’t want to disappear.”

As the embodiment of elemental spirits, fire giants are not afraid of ordinary flames.

But as an ancestral dragon, Cassius's breath has a higher magical essence, which can absorb the "essence" of the fire giants and make them his own.

After just a few breaths, the breath flame was still burning, even more vigorously, but the fire giants had long disappeared.

Even their weapons turned into liquid and dripped onto the ground.

"hiss--"

Cassius absorbed the flames back, feeling the energy filling up his body, and licked his lips with satisfaction.

"The fire giant alone has so much energy."

"What about these so-called nobles?"

The red dragon stared at the fire giant noble who had not escaped far with its light golden pupils, greed flashing in its eyes.

He had no mercy for these fire giants who regarded all things as enemies and slaves.

The enslavers were enslaved.

The exploiters are devoured.

This is in accordance with the laws of nature.

What's more, after remembering some information from his previous life and confirming the situation of the "Great Sultan", Cassius became even more fearless.

"Damn it."

"By the Lord of Fire, they were all eaten!"

"How dare he do this!"

Hamid flew desperately, and he felt extremely terrified when he heard the screams of the fire giant guards behind him. (End of this chapter)
