Chapter 539 The Ice Dragons Of The Khaled Bor Mountains [Part 1]

“Now… this is a Flying Ship,” Ethan said with amazement as he looked at the Dwarven Flying Ship in front of him.

Not only was it bigger than Professor Barret’s and Lord Edmond’s Flying Ship, but it was more imposing as well.

“Lad, this is not a flying ship,” Degel corrected with a smug expression on his face. “This is what you call a Dwarven Battleship.”

“Does it have a name?” Ethan inquired.

“Aye, lad,” Degel replied. “She goes by the name Angurvadal.

Standing fifteen meters tall with a length of fifty meters, the Dwarven Battleship looked impressive in Ethan’s eyes.

But, that wasn’t all. This mighty ship also had thirty-two magical cannons that could obliterate a Dragon in an aerial battle.

This kind of Battle Ship was only used during times of great strife and when the Dwarven Race went to battle.

Degel might not be the mightiest warrior among the Dwarves, but he was one of their best craftsmen.

It took him three years to build Angurvadal, and to this day, it was still the second most powerful Dwarven Battleship in active duty.

“It’s time to board, for we have a long trip ahead of us,” Degel stated. “It will take us three days to reach the great mountain of Khaled Bor. During that time, you and the young missy can explore the ship as we sail in the sky. Now, follow me.”

Degel climbed the wooden bridge that led to the deck of the ship, and Ethan and Nicole trailed behind him.

The Dwarves had really come prepared to fight just in case something unexpected happened.

However, they hadn't expected that the one who'd they would be up against was the Water Fairy Queen, Celestia, who was someone that the Dwarves didn’t want to offend no matter what.

“The Dragons and us have an agreement, so they won’t actively attack us,” Degel stated. “But even if they did, the ones who would be dying would be them. It’s been a while since I last used Dragon Parts for my craft, so I hope that the ones we meet first are the hot-headed bunch.”

Degel might be afraid of Celestia, but he wasn’t afraid of a fight against Dragons.

His Battleship was made to fight against them in the first place, and it was also the main reason why the Dragons decided to stop all hostility against the Dwarves.

Angurvadal was a true masterpiece of Dwarven Engineering. It had slain more Dragons than the Dragons had killed Dwarves combined.

Because of this, Degel had been given the title, Dragon Slayer. Many Dwarves viewed him as a role model, aspiring to become a master craftsman just like him.

After making sure that everything was in order, the Battleship rose up in the air and flew toward the Khaled Bor Mountains, where the great underground cities of the Dwarves were located.

Ethan knew that although the Dwarves seemed calm and hospitable on the surface, that didn’t mean that they had forgotten those who had died inside the Legacy Domain.

Before Ethan was sent out of the Domain, he talked with Queen Celestia, asking if it was possible to return the bodies of the fallen back to their families.

It took him some time to convince the Water Fairy Queen, but in the end, she relented.

When Ethan’s clone had taken Constantine away, she took that opportunity to eject the dead bodies of the invaders from her Domain.

This allowed the different races to give those who had died a proper burial, putting this nightmare behind them.

The Dwarves had already taken their dead kins and housed them safely within their Battleship. Truth be told, Ethan didn’t want to be there when they returned these dead bodies to their families.

Perhaps knowing what he was thinking, Nicole decided to head back to Eastshire after completing their mission.

Although she wanted to visit the Dwarven Capital, she also understood that the families of those who had died might harm them in order to vent their sadness and anger.

In order to avoid getting hurt, it would be best to first return to the academy and let the storm pass for the time being.

Three days later, the mountains of Khaled Bor appeared in their view.

Ethan and Nicole, who were both wearing clothes meant for the cold, looked at the distance and admired the beauty in front of them.

“Welcome to Northshire,” Degel said. “We will be landing at the peak where the Ice Dragons live. I will accompany you when you meet with them. I’m very famous among the Ice Dragons you see. Having me around will ensure that they will not do anything funny to the two of you.”

“Thank you, Sir Degel,” Ethan replied. “We are truly grateful for your help.”

“It is but a small matter,” Degel replied. “Still, I find it surprising that the two of you wish to talk to those stand-offish creatures. Care to tell me why you want to have an audience with them?”

Ethan glanced at Nicole. After all, he didn’t have the right to expose her real reason for coming to the Khaled Bor Mountain.

Nicole nodded in understanding before answering Degel’s question.

“We came to bring the message of the previous Dragon King to them,” Nicole replied. “Truth be told, I don’t know how they will react to it. But since Sir Degel is with us, they might probably not go out of their way to turn us into ice sculptures.”

Degel laughed out loud before patting his chest with confidence.

“Worry not, Lass,” Degel stated. “As long as I’m there, those Ice Dragons will not touch a strand of your hair. Feel free to make demands to them because I got your back.”

“It’s very reassuring that you’re here with us, Sir Degel.”

“Hahaha!”

While the three were talking, Angurvadal soared upward, passing through the clouds that hid the mountain peaks from view.

Even from a distance, they could see a few Ice Dragons flying in the air.

The moment the Ice Dragons noticed the Battleship flying in their direction, they let out a loud roar, informing their brethren that Angurvadal had appeared.

“Looks like we’re going to get a warm reception from them.” Degel sneered. “Battle Stations, everyone! If even one of these ice spitters does something funny, blast them off from the air!”

“““Aye!”””

Ethan watched as the Dwarves manned their Dwarven Magical Cannons and aimed them in the direction of the Dragons who were flying in their direction.

“I just hope that they will let us talk things out first before they start firing at the Dragons,” Nicole said with a stiff smile on her face.

Ethan wanted to say that what she feared wouldn't happen, but knowing that it might jinx their mission, he decided to keep his lips shut tight.

But, he made sure to firmly hold the wand in his hand just in case the Ice Dragons were not in the mood to talk to them.
