The Dragon King's Harem System-Chapter 342. Insecurity

Dragon King's Harem Chapter 342. Insecurity

"I guess," I said with a shrug, leaning back in my chair. "It's Viperax after all," I added, a hint of amusement in my voice.

Jyne's brows knitted together in confusion. "What do you mean?" she probed, her curiosity piqued.

I chuckled softly, shaking my head. "Let's just say he's not the easiest person to deal with," I replied cryptically, a smirk playing on my lips.

Her expression softened as she studied me. "You seem to know a lot about him," she observed, her tone thoughtful.

I gave her a knowing look, my smile widening. "Well, we've had our fair share of disagreements," I confessed, pushing myself up from my seat. "Our paths have crossed more times than I care to count," I added, gesturing for her to follow me as I made my way toward the exit of the tent.

As we walked, I continued to elaborate. "And let's just say, we don't always see eye to eye," I admitted with a chuckle, my steps easy and unhurried. "I often disagree with his way of thinking," I added again.

"Disagree with his way of thinking?" Jyne ventured, her tone tinged with curiosity.

I nodded. "Yes, his insecurity," I reiterated, stuffing my hands into my pockets. "He's always trying to prove himself. Like he has this constant need to assert his power and authority," I explained, shaking my head.

Jyne's expression softened as she listened, her eyes reflecting understanding. "I see what you mean," she said, nodding in agreement.

"Exactly," I replied, relieved that she understood. "It's like he's always on edge, ready to defend himself at the slightest provocation," I continued, my tone tinged with frustration.

We approached the front of the tent. Our eyes scanned the area ahead. Viperax and his entourage were already making their way out of sight, the massive form of his mount still visible despite the distance. It was hard to miss, looming over the landscape.

Eir and the dragon soldiers stood watch at the perimeter. The transparent barrier surrounding the area shimmered faintly in the fading light.

Despite the apparent calm, there was an underlying tension in the air. We couldn't afford to let our guard down just yet, not until we were certain that Viperax had truly left and had no intentions of returning.

"Yes. The lizard tribe did not have any obsession with the dragon tribe in the past. They didn't try to imitate our wings or our structures. Well, some jealousy existed in some people, but not that bad. But it all became big after Viperax took over the throne from his father," I explained to Jyne without taking my eyes off Viperax who was in the distance.

A frown on her face was getting worse. "I don't get it, why should he be jealous of dragons? Is it because dragons are considered a strong tribe?" she guessed. "I mean I know dragons are strong, but none of my tribe wants to become dragons. We have our own pride as the fox tribe," she said in confusion.

I shrugged. "Maybe because he thinks lizards are kind of similar to dragons. But as you know, each tribe actually has its own strengths and advantages. Why force yourself to be something else?" I said uncertainly the same thing.

She raised one of her eyebrows. "Aren't they more similar to the Serpent tribe?" she asked.

"I thought the same thing too. But they refuse to be compared to serpents since they have legs," I explained. A scoff came out of my mouth. "Ironic, right? They refuse to be compared to tribes who do not have legs like them. "Yet they are trying to equate themselves with the tribe that has wings while they don't have them," I said in a slightly teasing tone.

"Double standards," she said.

"Yes," I admitted.

Jyne shook her head, a smirk playing on her lips. "Sounds like they've got a case of identity crisis," she commented, her tone laced with amusement.

I chuckled, nodding in agreement. "Exactly. You hit the nail on the head," I said, impressed by her insight.

"It's like they're trying too hard to fit in," she added, rolling her eyes.

"Yeah, exactly! But sometimes being extraordinary means just being yourself," I said, offering her a knowing smile.

She grinned back at me, the tension from earlier dissipating. "Well, it looks like Viperax has got some soul-searching to do," she said, her tone lightening.

"Definitely," I stated.

Feeling that everything was according to plan, I turned to Jyne. "Let's check on the prisoners. I hope Evelina and the others can handle them," I said.

Jyne nodded, her expression serious.

We approached the healing tent, the atmosphere changed noticeably. The usual hustle and bustle of the camp faded away, replaced by a sense of focused activity. Evelina and the healers were fully immersed in their work, tending to the prisoners who had been freed from Viperax's grasp.

The tent was filled with the scent of medicinal herbs and potions, creating a soothing yet slightly pungent aroma that hung in the air.

The sound of soft murmurs and gentle movements filled the space as Evelina and the healers moved about, administering care to those in need.

Amidst the rows of cots where the prisoners lay, I noticed two medium-sized dragons who appeared to be quite ill. Their scales were dulled and their breathing labored, indicating that they were in a precarious state. Despite their size, they seemed vulnerable and in need of urgent attention.

Evelina was overseeing the treatment of the prisoners, offering instructions to the healers and providing comfort to those under their care.
