Dragon King's Harem Chapter 215. Dawn Ambush II
The Orc’s PoV
Evelina stared at the orc leader for a second before she finally stood up. "Fine, I will accept your offer. But how do we get out of here?" she asked doubtfully. " The dragons are everywhere." A trace of worry was clear from her tone.
The orc leader lowered his hand as he realized that as a princess, her dignity forbade a mere soldier to touch her.
"Don't worry," the orc leader said. "We will find a way to escape. Trust me."
She nodded. "But if the dragon king catches us, I won't hesitate to ditch you guys," she warned them.
"We understand, Your Highness," he said. "And we will make sure you won't be captured. We just need to wait for our signal," he added with a confident smile.
Evelina frowned in confusion.
"What signal?" she asked.
- Boom!--- Tratak --trak ---trak!
The booming sound of fireworks suddenly broke the silence of the dawn, painting the dark sky with huge fire sparks. Followed by the orc's shouts and the sound of battle.
The orc leader's smirk widened.
"That is our signal."
"Excellent," his comrade replied. "Let's go!"
On the other side, the dragons were getting closer and they were starting to attack. They spat their fire at them, showering them with their Firebolt skill. But the orcs didn't back down.
***
Outside the fortress, Princess Glasha was ready with the orc army. They were close enough to the fortress, so what they did was charging at the fortress in full force. The orcs had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
"Now, let's go! Kill all the dragons!" Princess Glasha shouted.
Her comrades followed her and they charged toward the fortress. The orcs had already built traps near the fortress and they had prepared their weapons and armor. Although their main goal was to kidnap the princess and bring her to the orc tribe, the army's goal was to distract the dragons so the orc leader could take Evelina out easily.
The orcs were hiding behind the corpses and the battle remains, approaching the fortress as fast as they could as they protected themselves from the dragons' fire.
"Move faster!" one of the soldiers yelled.
"Keep going!" another one screamed.
The orcs were running as fast as they could.
The orcs were fighting back with their weapons and their earth spell. They used their earth spells to create barriers around them and protect themselves against the dragons' attacks. Some of the orcs even used their magic to hide in the earth barrier.
A dragon was attacking Princess Glasha with its claws. Fiercely, she dodged it and kicked it in the face. The dragon flew backward and landed on the ground. Then it quickly recovered and tried to bite her. She blocked it with her weapon and stabbed it in the neck with her weapon.
Another dragon was trying to grab Princess Glasha with its mouth. She managed to dodge it and kick it in the head. It fell unconscious and she grabbed her weapon and stabbed it in the heart.
Her sweat was falling down her face. Dirt and scratches filled her body, yet her hand gripped her weapon tightly. And her face didn't show any fear. This was her last battle. She just needed to make sure everything was according to her father's plan so she could take the remaining orcs to return to their home.
In another place, an orc was surrounded by three dragons. One of them was biting his arm while two others were spitting fireballs at him. He was desperately trying to defend himself. One of the dragons was hitting him with its tail. The other one was trying to bite him.
As they got closer, the orcs used their earth spells to create barriers around them and protect themselves against the dragons' attacks.
While the dragons who were attacking them were getting more and more, which mean everything was according to Uraugh's plan. Their diversion plan was successful. They managed to lure the dragons from the fortress. The only one that hadn't appeared was the dragon king. So Princess Glasha decided to escalate the attack.
"Fire!" Princess Glasha ordered loudly.
Upon her command, some orcs lit up the fireworks and shot them at the fortress. Soon, all the first traps around the fortress activated. All of them shot fireworks at the sky.
The light and sparks from fireworks confused the dragons. They quickly fell into traps and attacked the empty fireworks instead of the orcs. It also created panic and messed up their battle formation. They were flying in a random direction and roared in anger.
The orcs were happy. They were able to get rid of the dragons without any trouble and also able to get closer to the fortress. Soon, the orcs reached the fortress and started to break the walls and gates with their earth spell.
But when they almost reached the fortress, suddenly a fierce roar came from on top of the wall. A roar that could shrink everyone's guts.
The orcs lifted their gaze. Their gaze fell on the huge black dragon figure who stood gallantly on the wall.
The dragon king was looking down on them with his blue sapphire eyes. His wings spread wide and his sharp teeth glinted. His black scales shone like beautiful black diamonds. His powerful muscles were visible through his skin.
The orcs were terrified. They couldn't move. They were frozen in place. His voice shook the whole fortress. The orcs were petrified. They couldn't move. They were paralyzed with fear.
But Princess Glasha's whistle broke it. It was a sign that the dragon king had made his appearance and they had to take his attention as long as they could. It was also a sign for the orc leader that he should use the opportunity to take Evelina as far as possible from there.
"Kill the orcs!" the dragon king commanded in a roar.
The dragons answered him with another roar before they stormed at them like a hurricane.
