The dragon's harem-Chapter 819: The Gambling Princess

Lucy ran away from the undead and pointed her arm at the blood-soaked ground. "FREEZE!" She froze it behind her, making all the undead slip and slide away.

The light surrounding her body faded, and she immediately realized how long it took. In her training to control wild magic, she got herself used to counting seconds, figuring the duration of her wild magic pulses is important after all. ^That was one minute, so this cold magic surge could last around that time.^

^I need to get into the air. Let's try again.^ She jumped, [Fly] The spell failed again and she landed back on the ground. A wild magic surge must've occurred.

She looked around with a scared face, trying to figure out what disaster had occurred. "AH! My lovely mistress!" One of the undead cried, bowing to her, he was a large death knight with immense power.

^It was charm magic! It isn't supposed to work on undead...but who cares...^ She growled, waving her hand. "Protect me! Destroy all the undead trying to harm me!"

"As my mistress orders!" The death knight swung his swords and cut hordes of zombies and skeletons with a single swing.

"Give me something decent!" Lucy clapped her hands, closed her eyes, and took a deep breath, focusing on her magic.

[Fly] She still wanted to fly into the air to escape. Her wild magic is extremely unreliable unless she hits a jackpot.

A thick cloud of fog surrounded her and consumed everything in a 100-meter radius, preventing them from seeing anything.

"AHH!" The death knight gasped. "My mistress undead loves me! What magnificent support! I shall serve you with my unlike!" As a death knight, he could detect monsters by magic. That was an ability that only death knights and lichs had.

"Again!" Lucy growled.

[Fly]

A golden light rushed into Lucy's body, she looked happy for a second and then burst into rage. "Why the useless immortality for a minute? I don't intend on getting hit anyway, give me the jackpot instead!"

[Fly]

CRACK! A third eye appeared on her forehead and started glowing with magic. "Good! Eye of truth!" [Fly] Upon trying to cast the fly spell again, Lucy triggers another wild magic surge, but thanks to the eye of truth, she gets to choose one of two random effects. It's like being given a half a second chance to pick a direction.

[Right: Everything you touch bursts into laughing flames for a minute]

[Left: A cloud of thick fog surrounds you]

"Right!" She shouted and the right choice took effect. But instead of rushing out to touch the undead and burn them, she kept rolling on her wild magic. She can mostly avoid bad effects with the eye of truth.

[Fly] The spell failed again and Lucy started to get frustrated. She should've at least managed a successful cast by now. She doesn't know, but the thick necrotic mana in the air is polluting the mana she's trying to use spells, which is causing the [Fly] spell to fail each time, and cause the wild magic surge.

[Right: For the next nine days you're immune to intoxication from alcohol, and a tattoo saying 'Sober' is engraved on your forehead for that duration]

[Left: For an hour, you can walk on walls and ceilings]

"Left! And roll again!" [Fly]

[Right: You cast a dragon breath; the damage type and dragon's age are random.]

[Left: You regain 20% of your expanded mana]

"Right of course!" She took a deep breath and her chest expanded like a balloon. With a powerful roar, she unleashed a massive breath of bubbles and soap, blasting a quarter of the forest with so much force that she washed the undeads bone off their flesh, destroying almost all the zombie-type undead in that general direction.

"As expected of mistress! What a magnificent display of power." The death knight cheered her on.

"I wanted something cool like fire or lightning, but it doesn't matter now, let's keep rolling!" She laughed her lungs out and Gojo watched from above with a smile. The Ruris kingdom's youngest princess wasn't someone anyone could handle, her innate wild magic is powerful, but just as dangerous. He knew that she loved to play around with it, but usually refused to do that as she feared she might kill someone by mistake. Gojo is the only person who can confidently say that he'll deal with any misfire of her magic.

[Fly]

[Right: From now on, you don't require food to live and can sustain yourself with a sip of water each day as you do when eating normally. But this effect disappeared if gotten a second time.]

[Left: Each time you cast a spell, you fly for a small distance. This effect last for a minute.] "Left! Even though the right is tempting, I want to get the hell out of here." Lucy flew into the air since getting the wild magic was like a spell being cast. She looked at her hands, the freezing aura had disappeared, but she could still burn anything she touched.

After flying for 10 meters she landed, this was how long she'd fly after casting a spell.

[Fly]

[Right: You read the thoughts of everyone around you, and receive psychic damage.]

[Left: You turn into a potted plant for a minute. You return to your original form early if you

die.]

"Damn it! Left!" She growled and turned into a potted plant, but was still able to fly around.

[Fly]

[Right: Each creature within 30 meters of you turns invisible.]

[Left: You can speak with animals for an hour, birds and small animals seek you to tell you random secrets.]

^I need to see the undead so Left!^ She growled in her mind as she couldn't speak as a plant. From her pot, a small worm emerged. "I've cheated on my wife." It said in a deep voice with a

stern face.

^I don't care!^ Lucy cried and tried to cast a spell again. All she can do now is run away from the undead and rely on the death knight to protect her. The charm spell is bound to end soon and he'll turn back into an enemy, she must either get a jackpot, or a decent magic to survive. She knows Gojo won't let her die, but he's the kind of person to let her get mauled a bit.

[Fly]

[Right: You cast a dragon breath; the damage type and dragon's age are random.] Seeing the first choice, she felt full of joy, finally another shot at a dragon's breath. But she got even

happier when she saw the other choice.

[Left: Swap souls with someone you see for 10 seconds.]

^Break my pot!^ She roared in her head and the death knight obliged, slicing her in half. She returned to her normal form in the blink of an eye and looked at Gojo, she was never so happy

to see him in her life.

"Left!"

Gojo blinked, and his body felt strange. He looked down, his arms had become thinner and he was wearing a thick fur coat. It didn't take him a second to realise; he was in Lucy's body.

Obelisk was fighting Boronos on the other side of the forest.

"To think you'll be my equal even in the apocalypse, you damnable slime." Boronos growled, facing Obelisk with a twisting face.

"Face this!" He waved his hands and merged hundreds of zombies into a single flesh monster the size of Obelisk who was taking the form of Demogorgan. "Let's see you face someone of

your size."

Obelisk was about to smack the beast away when Gojo flew in and punched him in the face, obliterating the head in a beam of light.

"Master!" Obelisk gasped but quickly realized. "No, something is different." The crazed smile on Gojo's face said everything.

"Don't worry! Your big sister is here to save you." Gojo said it was indeed Lucy controlling his

body.

Void dragons rarely settle in one place, but once they do, their mere existence is bound to start drawing power. Whether it is Arad or Gojo, it's the same; they have the arrogant power to test the world's limits. No creature would be insane enough to try feeding a demon lord to a slime or test the limits of wild magic.

Arad wasn't strange to this as well; he's raising monsters of his own. Far away at the borders of the human kingdom of Ruris, a large carriage of the royal family raced through the hills.

Eris sat in her place, putting one leg on another as she looked forward, divine magic dripping from her eyes as Pin kept bowing again and again to her. "Can I just kill them all?" She

growled.

"Calm down. There are civilians there." Merida who sat facing Eris replied while sharpening her sword. Fungus had started showing on her arms like black veins as her whole body burned in demonic magic, "I'll dice the castle first. Arad would've retaliated otherwise." "AHHHHHHHH! To think I see Mistress and a Demon lord working together." Pin cried. "Merida is right. Arad isn't moving since he doesn't want to kill civilians." Isdis said as she sat beside them, "We didn't get any information about this in the castle until we received Gojo's message earlier. I'm certain they intend to either kill or control Arad."

"Gojo said that Arad was attacked by an elder lich. He could only chase him away," Aella growled, "And those kingdoms are sitting there thinking about how to control Arad instead of helping him." The green glow in her eyes said it all, she was about to go on a killing streak once they reached their destination.

"Calm down, it's not like they could've done anything." Merlin said as she was sitting beside Merida, "What's worse is how they treated Isdis's letter."

Isdis, upon hearing the news from Gojo earlier had immediately called Betty and sent an instant letter to all the kingdoms informing them that the monster in the desert was her husband, Arad Orion, also known as Uranus, the dragon hero who defeated Vlad.

Her letters were faced with mockery and Ruris's kingdom was accused of scheming to

monopolize a new power source. Some even accused Ruris's kingdom of faking Arad's Orion person and using that face to protect itself from being invaded after Vlad destroyed their

kingdom.

If Vlad died, why are there still vampires? There is no such person called Arad Orion, you've made that up. Your capital has been destroyed and you've been scheming to gather power in secret, give up and become a vassal land, or we'll send our paladins to cleanse your vampire-

infested land.

Mira giggled in the corner as she was working on a large crystal surrounded by metal rings. "What are you doing?" Merlin stared at her with an exhausted face. "I've said that you shouldn't come, but can that thing really help?"

"I'll make it work." Mira looked at her with a grin, "Once finished, this should be a bomb

strong enough to blow a whole city, if we charged it with enough mana. Making things work right is hard, but making them explode is much easier."

Due to the threat to the kingdom, and the stress from losing Arad for a while weak, the dragon's harem had started to move with a single goal. Eliminate all of those standing in their

husband's way.

It's war.
