Chapter 623 - 622 – Ice Dragon Clan’s Secret – Part 2.

(Dammit! Dammit! Dammit!) – thought the dragon princess as she was walking through the castle corridors while being still not aware of the fact that Thanatos was straight up fallowing her.

(How?!)

(I know that mother told me to keep it a secret no matter what… But is it really possible?!)

(…But… No matter how I look at it.)

(Phantasia The Doctor is without the doubt responsible!) – thought terrified princess as she entered her room and then quickly in hurry transform into her humanoid form.

(Mother told me that the elites she send to secured the location of the temple and eliminated elven forces.)

(But then I've received a call, warning mother about Phantasia the Doctor… She told me to prepare the elite forces and sent them the moment the clan once again take control over the mountain….)

(But… I've never received any signal back.)

(That meant one thing… That she was either captured… Or killed.)

(I wanted to organize the rescue party, but that bitch of sister of mine found out about mother going missing and used that for her advantage.) – thought the dragon princess as she approached a well, where she put her hands on it, causing a hidden passage to be open that was way too small for the regular dragon to enter… But not for the human sized humanoid to enter.

(I have to get mother back, but the moment I would make ANY fucking move, that fucking bitch will attack!) – thought princess as she entered the hidden corridor, finding herself in the long corridor while the hidden passage's entrance closed up.

(I STRAIGHT UP CAN'T GO AND RESUCE THE MOTHER NOW! OR JUST FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENED TO HER!) – thought furious Assinia as she traversed the long corridor, finding stairs which she took and arrived at the very bottom where she then found herself in the massive room.

(A secret space?) – thought Thanatos who fallowed Assinia all this time.

(But what exactly is this place?)

(Laboratory… No… Something like ritual site combined with laboratory?) – thought Thanatos as she noticed a massive glass container that was in the middle of the room, which was filled with green liquid… And something greyish that resembled some kind of flesh with several different eyes and mouths.

(The fuck is this?!)

(Is this thing alive?)

(…No. It is not looking at the princess… Still….)

(Is it related to the whole secret of the double attribute?) – thought Thanatos as she noticed princess approaching a door, which she then opened and entered, without noticing Thanatos slipping in.

"!"

(Well, that whole thing is mechanical!) – thought Thanatos as she found herself in the fully mechanical room with a big screen and console.

"Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!" – said the princess to herself as she was messing with the consol, before then turning on the massive screen.

"…"

"…"

"For fuck's sake! PICK UP ALREADY!" – said pissed off princess as she was waiting for noticeable amount of time… Until finally, the screen changed.

And the moment it did, it shown on the screen a man with blond hair and silver straight horns sticking out from his head, who also had several white scales on his face.

"…What is it? Princess Assinia." – said the man on the screen.

"…"

"Agriu. I need a favor." – said the dragon princess as she clenched her fist.

"…And what kind?" – said the man.

"…"

"The queen of the ice dragon clan… Has went missing." – said the princess.

"!?"

"What do you mean?" – asked alarmed man.

"…" – the dragon princess was hesitant to answer.

"Hey! The hell do you mean?! Answer me!" – said the alarmed man as he was growing impatient.

"Ice Mountain! She went to the Ice Mountain!" – said the princess as she gave in.

"…"

"What for?" – said the man as his tone changed instantly.

"…To obtain the divinity." – said the princess.

"…"

"WHAT IN THE ACTUAL FUCK WERE YOU THINKING?!" – shouted the man in fury.

"WHAT ABOUT THE FUCKING PLAN?! HUH!?"

"ARE YOU THAT RETARDED?!"

"WE DIDN'T TOUCHED THOSE DIVINITIES FOR A REASON!"

"…"

"Where is she?!" – asked the pissed off man.

"I… The three elites of our clan had fought the elves… And secured the mountain… But then they were eliminated by the third party." – said the princess.

"Phantasia The Doctor."

"They managed to relay the message before getting exterminated."

"The queen said that she will deal with Phantasia personally… But… After saying that, we completely lost the contact with her."

"…"

"And?" – said the man.

"I've… Wanted to send a rescue party after her, but because of the dragons who refused to the queen's order and change had ended up causing me to be completely unable to send the rescue party."

"…"

"Please! My hands are tied here already dealing with situation in here! At the rate things are going there would be a civil war happening here!"

"Can't you-"

"Rejected." – said the man with cold tone.

"You incompetent greedy bastards."

"All you had to do is sit and prepare."

"But-"

"BUT FUCKING WHAT?!" – shouted the man in fury as the princess tried to argue.

"YOU FUCKED UP AND YOU WANT US TO NOW CLEAR UP AFTER YOUR MESS?!"

"DO YOU THINK WE CAN DO THAT?!"

"YOU FUCKED UP SO BAD THAT THERE IS NOTHING WE CAN DO!"

"…"

"Consider yourself no longer useful." – said the man before ending the call.

"!?"

"HEY! HEY! THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING?!" – shouted the woman in panic as she tried to reestablish the contact over and over again… Only to keep failing.

"…"

"AAAAAAAAA!" – the woman transformed her right arm into a giant draconic humanoid hand, before then smashing the consol and then going on the rampage right after, using her claws, tail and magic to completely destroy the room in the fit of pure rage.

"THAT FUCKING BASTARD!" – shouted the dragon as she smashed open the doors and returning

"USELESS BASTARD! WHAT THE FUCK DOES HE THINK HE IS?!"

"THIS IS FUCKING ALLIANCE! THEY FUCKING TOLD US THAT WITH THIS POWER, THERE COULD BE NOTHING STANDING IN OUR WAY!"

"SO WHAT IN THE ACTUAL FUCK IS THIS!" – shouted the dragon as she was about to swing at the massive container at the middle of the room with her claws… Only to stop at the very last moment.

"Tch!"

"FUCK!" – the dragon walked towards the nearby chair while returning back to her originally humanoid form and then sitting down.

"…"

"The fuck do we do now?" – said the princess as the panic and fear started showing on the princess's face.

"What the fuck do we do?"

"What if the organization already knows about us… If the mother was really captured or killed… Then they may… No… That can't be true…."

"…"

(She is breaking.) – thought Thanatos.

(…And from what I'm hearing right now, it seems that there was truly somebody behind them… But now? They had given up on the ice dragon clan….)

(Still, what I've heard was worrying.)

"…"

(But then again… If they won't come to the aid, doesn't that mean it is perfect for us to attack, since nothing will get in our way?)

(Not only that… She is easy target right now!)

(All I have to do is pop up and decapitate her!)

(Dragons maybe high sensitivity towards mana, but with my stealth current level, I could easily use up several powerful skills before she notices in time.)

(I can one shot kill her ass without anybody finding out!)

"…"

"…"

(No. Bad idea.)

(I don't know if she is truly only one who knows about this space.)

(Not only that, what if the purity faction wins and searches the castle, finding out about that thing before we come here?) – thought Thanatos as she stared at the massive container

(I don't know what that thing is… But it is clear it is related to the whole double attribute mystery.)

[Situation A – Kill the princess – Somebody comes here in fear and decides to relocate the container, making it possible for the purity faction to find it and destroy it.]

[Situation B – Kill the princess – The purity faction gets and upper hand, wins the civil war, search the castle and find the hidden space, before then disposing of the container and what is inside of it.]

"…"

(Too risky.)

(If I kill her now, that thing there could end up being destroyed.)

(And that is something we don't want at any cost.) – thought Thanatos as she started sneaking away, trying to leave the hidden underground space.

(However, that man… Silver horns and white scales?!)

(There is one fucking race that has THOSE kind of special characteristics!)

(The light dragons!)

(Not only that, THEY WERE AWARE OF THE DIVINITIES?!)

(Does that mean Phantasia's theory about players being involved wasn't right?) – thought Thanatos as she managed to maker her way into the princess's room.

(I need to contact Phantasia ASAP!)

(…)

(Why the fuck things are still getting fucking complicated.)

(…Not only that… Sit and wait?)

(But considering the information that Phantasia gave me… The ice dragon clan would be truly annoying if all of them were necromancers… But they could be still manageable.)

(However… What if… What if it wasn't just them?)

(What if every single one of the neutral dragon clans were turned into double attribute dragons?!)
