Jason let out a sound of slight disgust after he swallowed the stone. It was warm and a little sticky with blood, so Jason hadn’t been ready for the taste.

But the boost he got from the stone was undeniable. The boost to mana alone was more than what Jason got for killing an Adamantine Ant Soldier, so adding the boosts that he received to his stats just made things even better.

Jason let out a small laugh before he finally got a message from the Legion members outside telling him that they were done gathering the bodies of the dead ants together. Jason activated the [Eye of the King] skill to check their work and he saw that all the bodies had been gathered together in a heap at the center of the cavern. Jason nodded while deactivating the skill, and he began to leave the Queen’s nest so he could finish resurrecting the remaining ants.

[The World of Radagan]

[A Significant Distance Away]

"Grab her! Don’t let her get away! I said grab her!"

A man shouted in a loud voice as he and three other men chased after a woman. The men and woman all had humanoid figures that would have made anyone think that they were humans, but their figure was the only thing that related them to humans in any way. They all had black scales along their necks that reached all the way up to their cheeks. Their hands and feet were also covered in scales, with only their fingers and toes without any scales.

Their eyes were slit, like a lizard’s, and when they opened their mouths, you would see multiple jagged sharp razor-like teeth!

They were moving quickly through the sky on the backs of large winged creatures, with the woman riding ahead of the three men. Two of the men were on one midsized dragon that was nearly thirty feet in length and ten feet in height, and the third man rode a smaller dragon that was only fifteen feet in length and six feet in height!

Ahead of them, the girl was riding on a long, thirty-foot wyvern with blue skin and a long tail. She had dark hair and deep red eyes that seemed to bore into anyone who glanced into them. Her face was a perfect oval that most models would kill to have, but her beauty was marred by a look of pure panic as she tried to get as far away from the men behind her as possible! But every time she looked back, she felt fear fill her heart as she saw they were gaining on her!

The wyvern that she was riding let out a panicked cry as it felt its speed dropping. There was a massive injury on the wyvern’s side that was letting out a lot of blood, and the woman felt panic rising in her heart when she looked inside herself and saw that she was already out of mana!

The men had been chasing the woman for more than thirty minutes now, and their dragons had fired attacks at her many times to injure the wyvern. She managed to heal the wyvern every time they attacked it, but she was nearly out of mana, so the most recent attack was too much for her to handle!

The men behind her shouted again in anger!

"Get back here, you bitch! Shoot at her! Shoot her again!"

The man riding a single dragon was the one shouting and one of the men on the other larger dragon turned to the man and shouted back in worry.

"But she’s the princess! If we attack again, we might kill her!"

The first man growled in anger! Did this man think he was a fool who didn’t consider that? He would have just shot the girl down himself, but his dragon was too small, so its flame couldn’t be strong enough to kill the wyvern!

"She can just heal herself even if we hit her! Just shoot the wyvern down! Do you want to report back to the Sovereign that we let her get away!?"

A shiver of fear passed through the bodies of all three men once the Sovereign was mentioned. They would rather go through hell itself than face off against the Sovereign! They had been sent here by the Sovereign to bring his Princess back to him, and they knew it would be the end of them if they went back empty-handed!

The man guiding the larger dragon immediately sent his command to the dragon using a mental link, and the dragon picked up speed as it began to get closer to the wyvern! It opened its mouth and a ball of superheated flames formed in the deep cavernous orifice! The entire region seemed to grow a thousand degrees hotter immediately, and the girl turned around in shock when she felt the heat!

’NO!’

BOOM!!!

The dragon let out a blast of fire that was strong enough to eviscerate an S Rank easily! It shot straight toward the wyvern, and the girl quickly turned her body to the side and guided the wyvern out of the way of the blast! The flames shot past the wyvern by barely ten centimeters, and the girl heard the wyvern cry out in pain as its skin began to sizzle from the blast!

The girl began to pet the wyvern’s head desperately while crying out to it through their mental link!

’No! No! Please don’t stop! Please! Just a bit further!’

The girl begged for it to keep going, but she could already feel the life in her partner’s body fading away. It wouldn’t be long now before it died!

The girl reached into her shirt and grabbed a large Magical Crystal that was glowing with a bright yellow light. The stone hung around her neck through a chain, and she gripped it tightly as she felt fear fill her heart. The magical stone would allow her to boost her magical power if she swallowed it, and she could use that magical power to open a dimensional tear so that she could escape.

’But it’s too early. I haven’t gotten to the location yet!’

She had been saving this stone to use when she finally reached the place her father told her about. Opening a dimensional tear randomly would take you to any random location in the vast primordial expanse. But you could control where you go by opening the tear at a specific place. Her plan was to wait until she reached her destination, but she knew now that there was no way she would be able to get there. Her father warned her that she was going to suffer serious repercussions and she wouldn’t be able to use her magic for a while after she used the stone, and she needed to make sure she didn’t use it randomly so she wouldn’t be killed by any Magical Beasts in her weakened state.

But she had no choice! Her wyvern was dying and the dragonriders were gaining on her! If she waited any longer, she was going to die! The girl sent another mental message to the wyvern and asked if it could go any faster, but the wyvern cried back that it was going as fast as it could already! It was flying on fumes, and it would soon fall! The wyvern begged the girl to use the stone and told her that it would stay here to hold the men back!

’What!? No! You’re coming with me!’

The girl cried back as tears gathered in her eyes, but the wyvern said that it was already done for. Its wings and body were burnt, and it was nearing death! There was no way it would survive!
