The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 1409

Chapter 1409: Champion For The Throne

After a few seconds of silence, a dragon flew up out of the crowd.

{I challenge for the throne. A First Born son of a mistress has no right of ascension, no matter what our Immortal Father wanted.} The dragon insisted.

Lukas nodded. {Then, by all means, begin. The champions will decide the outcome, as per divine law.}

The dragon snorted disdainfully. The King was not allowed to fight his own fights during the challenge, a test of his judgment, as the King was expected to be the strongest of the Shadow Dragons, and challenging him directly to a duel was unlikely to succeed.

It was intended to be a measure to keep a powerful fool off the throne, as there was a real chance that the chosen Champion could betray him if he was not a good leader.

The younger Prince activated a magical item, and his power soared, easily double what it was before, and far stronger than what Lukas could claim without outside assistance.

{Avatar, concede defeat, and there is no need for you to be injured here.} The Challenger demanded.

Karl smiled and extended one clawed finger in the man’s direction.

[Nullify] shattered not only the barriers, but also the strengthening buff on the dragon. Cara laughed wildly, rolling on her back in the air and clutching her belly, which had the hatchling Princess strapped to it.

The change of angle let the little dragon get a better view of the shocked look on the man’s face as Karl charged at him.

He didn’t even have time to recover from his shock before a massive clawed paw hit him on the back, tearing the muscles in the base of his wings, and sending him crashing to the ground with a fleshy crunch.

{That should settle it. Unless he’s planning to get back up.} Karl announced.

He was a Mythic-Ranked dragon, he would heal the physical injuries in a few minutes, if not faster. But the damage to his pride would last far longer. Being swatted out of the air with a casual claw, not even a skill, was utterly humiliating.

It wasn’t something that should be able to happen to him, but his impact rattled mind still couldn’t comprehend why his protective spells had failed.

The assembly of Nobles and Royals fell silent at the scene.

Even if they had some intention of challenging, what were they supposed to do about that World Dragon? The only one of them who might even stand a chance was Dakkarian, and he was already flying in the back, openly supporting the King. But was a World Dragon even vulnerable to the breath attack of a Black Dragon?

The World Dragons breathed life, a hard counter to the Black Dragon’s cloud of death. It could very well end the same way as this challenge, with Karl relying on a massive physical advantage to simply knock his opponent out of the sky.

{If there are no more challengers, we will begin the celebration feast.} Lukas declared.

The dragons began to roar, their voices shaking the air.

{Long Live The King!}
