"That, that."
"Master Dragon, can you let me go?"
The fire giant noble asked in a humbly voice, a smile uglier than crying appearing on his red face.
Having just witnessed that horrific scene, he now just wanted to leave here as soon as possible, leave this terrifying dragon, and not want to have anything to do with it anymore.
"of course can."
Cassius replied calmly.
The red dragon loosened its giant claws, releasing the fire giant nobles trapped in them.
“Thank you for your forgiveness.”
"Good-bye, Master Dragon."
Hamid breathed a sigh of relief.
The fire giant noble was flying desperately in the air, and sparks were coming out of his lower body.
"Flame, may God bless you."
"I will never return to this damned city of cast iron again. There is actually such a terrifying dragon here."
Hamid muttered to himself, his face full of relief at surviving the disaster.
"Shh-"
A scorching hurricane roared in.
Hamid suddenly had some bad guess in his mind and turned his head stiffly.
"No, it can't be"
The huge red dragon flapped its wings and caught up with him in just a few breaths. He could even smell the smell of sulfur.
"I have already forgiven you for your first sin - hunting down my family."
"But let's put one thing in another. Next is the second crime, humiliating me in person."
The red dragon swung its claws in the air, and the flashing force field imprisoned the desperate fire giant again.
This was just Cassius's experiment.
Players in the previous life proposed this idea on the forum: trap a fire giant and then release it, then trap it again and release it again - is it possible to make wishes infinitely?
"But, can you give me a second wish as compensation?"
Damn!
Greedy crawler!
Hamid roared and raged in his mind, but the fact was that he could do nothing about it.
Not to mention resisting, there was no chance to even struggle.
The fire giant nobles usually burn, kill and loot at will. If they are not satisfied, they can destroy a village and make the unfortunate mortals broken up.
But now, he has experienced firsthand what it feels like to be a victim.
Although he had already cut the red dragon into pieces in his heart, Hamid still managed to raise his head and begged for mercy: "Lord Dragon, please let me go!"
"I have absolutely no intention of deceiving you. The wishing technique is extremely valuable to the giants. I can only perform it once every few years."
As expected, there is no way to fix the bug.
I should have tried "Give me three more wishes" earlier. Although this might fail, it is still an interesting attempt.
Cassius shook his head and sighed helplessly.
"Alas, you don't want to pay compensation, but you want to live. You make it difficult for me."
"Lord Dragon, I can give you all my wealth and everything in the city."
The fire giant called out anxiously.
Cassius ignored him and just kept talking:
"Well, I'll relax the standards and make a wish that you can fulfill now."
"What wish?"
"I want an elemental core of a noble fire giant."
"This is not——"
Hamid's face was filled with shock and anger. He shouted something tremblingly, and was then engulfed by the dragon flames.
The raging flames wrapped around his body, gradually dissolving the outer shell, leaving only the elemental core in his chest like a swaying flame.
It not only contained abundant fire elemental energy, but also contained the essential power of the inner plane. The Emir of the Iron City sent by the Fire Giant Sultan, the Fire Giant Malik of noble blood, Hamid Abdul, died.
His soul may have returned to the arms of the Lord of Fire, but his body undoubtedly entered the belly of the Red Dragon.
"Roar--"
Cassius raised his head and let out a long roar.
He felt the immense energy filling his body and exhaled blazing flames, announcing his arrival to the entire Fire Elemental Plane.
"O Lord of the Flame"
"He actually dared."
"He, he ate an Emir!"
"By the Lord of Fire, Lord Hamid, you are just like a lamb to be slaughtered!"
"That's not an ordinary dragon. He ate a noble fire giant. It's a soul-eating dragon!"
The fire children in the magma, the fire dwarves in the dungeons, and the remaining fire giants in the Iron City looked up at the huge body of the red dragon from afar and cried out in surprise.
The death of an emir was a big deal, but not enough to cause a sensation.
But a terrifying dragon from the main material plane easily ravaged a fire giant noble and even devoured him alive.
This is rare to see.
The news spread across the Burning Wilds at an extremely fast speed.
But a few days later, nearby residents heard this story:
A red dragon, even larger than the ancient dragon, descended upon the Iron City.
He destroyed most of the city alone, killed hundreds of efreets, and devoured a noble efreet emir.
The name of "Soul-Eating Dragon" gradually spread, and it became the nightmare of the fire giants in the surrounding area.
However, few residents know the origin of this red dragon, and there are many speculations.
Some say he is an emperor from the Prime Material Plane, some say he is the offspring of Tiamat, and some say he is a helper hired by the Fire Dwarves.
Scorched Plains, Brass Fortress.
"Isn't he here yet?"
"Do not be afraid."
"Everyone, please be patient. The Excellency has accepted the invitation."
Inside the exquisite and beautiful brass palace, the fire dwarves gathered together nervously, their expressions extremely solemn.
On the table were all kinds of fine wines and delicacies, as well as piles of shining gold and jewels. It was obvious that a grand banquet was going to be held.
But faced with those tempting delicacies, no one dared to take a bite, and the imperial officers and soldiers who received the invitation also stood where they were.
"Excuse me."
A magnetic voice sounded.
The fire dwarves, imperial officers and soldiers present quickly turned their heads and focused their attention on the door.
Cassius, transformed into a human form, appeared at the palace gate with a polite smile on his handsome face.
"I've been dealing with some chores. I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."
"Your Majesty, Cassius, may you win!"
"Invincible!"
"The great red dragon that devoured the giant!"
The imperial officers and soldiers present cheered wildly, creating waves of enthusiastic cheers.
And Sharin also came forward, surrounded by the fire dwarves, and said respectfully:
"Your Majesty Cassius, congratulations on another great victory. The entire Burning Wasteland has witnessed your might."
Cassius nodded in greeting and said calmly, "Thank you for your invitation, Lord Sharin."
"Your Majesty, please come in. We have prepared the best wine and food for you."
Shalin bowed slightly and welcomed the giant dragon in human form into the palace.
His eyes revealed an unprecedented tension and solemnity - this banquet might determine the survival of the Brass Fortress and the fate of thousands of fire dwarves under his command. (End of this chapter)
