787 Fire Dragon King
Three islands. Three cities and many villages. I’ll check on one of the island without the castle first.
It’s an island I saw from the sky before. An island filled with more monsters than the people. They are most likely tamers and the monsters are contracted monsters.
I think each island will have several summoners. So maybe some of them are summoners.
On other islands, there are monsters as well. But not as many as the monsters here. Some of them were even dragons. And they were so close to detect me. Either because they can sense my mana or because their enhanced senses. I don’t know.
Though I don’t think that any of those dragons are stronger than Spot. So if there’s a fight, I think we will still be fine.
I also have become much stronger than a regular dragon. Though if it’s a dragon the size of Andro, I don’t think I can kill it. But it’s fine since there’s no creature that size that I can see.
Well, let’s just focus on getting more information here.
Monster, monster, monster, human, monster, humanoid monster, bird monster, human...
There are too many monsters here. And I don’t think I see anyone important in this place. To the cult, not to this place.
.....
They even breed some monsters. Like boars, rabbits, and anything else that can be eaten.
They tamed some of them, and forced them to breed so they can provide for several cities. Maybe even an entire country if they have some more breeding place like this.
But using a tamer as breeder is a good idea. There’s no need to hunt those monsters anymore if they can breed. And there won’t be any lack of meat.
And if I look closely, I think the monsters that were tamed are most likely something like a king or a leader of the species. So, those lower-ranked species had no choice but to obey. That’s how they can easily get some monsters to raise.
But that’s not all. I can see a dragon, the same size as any other dragon, but no other dragons nearby dare to get close to it. They are fire dragons. All of them have red scales on their body. But that one dragon look wiser than any other dragons. And above its head, the dragon has a pair of golden horn. As if that horns are its crown
And that dragon has been looking at me for a while. While other monsters or humans didn’t even notice me, that dragon did. But instead of alarming its master, it just looked at me.
“So... there’s a dragon that has been staring at us for a while. Should we greet it?” I asked.
“Is it that dragon with golden horns? Let’s go,” Spot said.
I’m still riding on him in the sky. Just a one-seater serpent for me alone to ride. And if there’s a place Spot wanted to go, I can’t do anything since he’s not my familiar. And I don’t care anyway.
Also, even though I’m an expert level summoner, after facing the cult so many times and see how their familiars, either tamed or summoned, would obey their master blindly, I feel like I still have a lot to learn as summoner. Maybe I need to focus on that now since my Aura and air magic are not improving as much as before anymore.
Anyway, we’re riding toward the resting fire dragon. Should I call it Fire Dragon King?
As we landed on the ground, the other dragons started to notice us. I thought that I need to kill them, but turns out, I don’t have to.
“ROAAAAAR!”
The Fire Dragon King roared and the other dragons turned tame. But now that I looked closer to those dragons, I can see something was wrong with them.
“...They are clones. Are they artificially created to be your clones?” I asked the Fire Dragon King.
“...Something like that. I wish they would just kill me,” the Fire Dragon King said.
As expected, this one can speak. I don’t think the Fire Dragon King is hostile, so let’s get as many information as possible from it.
“So, you were tamed, and forcefully getting your blood, flesh, scales, and claws ripped out of your own body so the people who captured you can make clones of you. No wonder they look different than the fire dragon I faced before,” I said.
I looked inside their body. And I can see that there’s no big differences between the clones and an ordinary fire dragon. But I can somehow tell that those are cloned creatures from their hearts. The clones’ hearts are beating faster than normal.
“Unfortunately, yes. Are you their enemy? If so, I have a wish I want you to grant. In exchange, I will tell you everything I know,” the Fire Dragon King said.
“I will do it if possible. But let’s do it later. Some people are coming here because of your roar. Is there anywhere we can hide?” I asked.
“Hide under my wing and use that invisibility skill you used before. Don’t move and don’t use any magic. I think you know what to do,” he said.
We hide under his wing and I used Aura to hide my presence. Then three people came from the sky. Just one of them is a master level wind mage. one must be the dragon’s master. And the other is... just tagging along, I guess?
Let’s listen to them first.
“You roared again today. Do these clones annoy you again? It’s normal. They are your clones. You can say that they are your children,” one of them men said. Not the tamer, and not the wind mage. I guess that man is the one who created the clones.
“Just kill me. I don’t want my body to keep being defiled by you.”
“Can’t do that. You know that even with your strong mentality, you can disobey your master’s order. But your clones made of pieces of your body, are parts of you. So they will still obey your master instead of you. And if you die, the contract will be broken and your clones will run wild until we tamed them all. We need you to be alive.”
I see! They are just like Blobbies!
Although I’m only Victoria’s master, her clones are still under contract. That’s why they can still transform to things I wanted.
And if Victoria is dead, which is unlikely, the other Blobbies will still be alive. But without a master to obey.
So, if I kill the Fire Dragon King, then his clones will go wild and destroy everything. That’s the most likely result if I do.
And the Fire Dragon King is also strong enough to not obey his master’s order. I guess intellectual monsters will not be easy to get as your subordinates. And I’m lucky that I’m strong enough to get the werewolves and the angels to follow me. As for Victoria and Ray, those two are entirely joined by luck.
I heard more about the Fire Dragon King from their conversation. The Fire Dragon King has pieces of his body ripped to make those clones. Although the Fire Dragon King has great regeneration ability, because he has been abused for so long, it doesn’t work as well as it used to be.
And now, they are trying to get more pieces of his body to turn into clones. And there will be more fire dragons.
So this is one of the cult’s secret. They cloned monsters. Now I can see how the cult destroyed the world. Maybe there are more monsters being forced to do this.
After they took some pieces of meat, claws, and scales, they left. They didn’t notice us under the Fire Dragon King’s wing.
“So, are you not a Fire Dragon King? And they are just your clones so they obey you?” I asked.
“I am the Fire Dragon King. Or at least I was until I got captured. I told my kin to escape far from where I was caught and to never get themselves involved with humans. But in the end, they were all captured and tamed. Some who fight back were killed. So I’m all alone. At least in this world,” he said.
I guess he knows the existence of Monsters World. That’s why he said this world.

“So, do you want me to end your life?” I asked.
“Not just me. There are other monsters who want to die. In fact, we should have died already. But they feed us some medicine that keep us alive. And that medicine also made us unable to use our strength. I want you to kill us all,” he said.
“Okay. I can do that. But that’s for later. We are from a alliance who want to destroy the organization behind all of this shit. And after investigating a bit, we will fight them here. We will kill you and other monsters right before the fight. That way, your clones will go wild and can help us fight the cult. Or if you want, I can kill your master and free you. What do you think?” I suggested.
“I want to, but I can. The medicine, once I stopped consuming them, I would die. And I had enough of living already when all my family members were killed by these bastards. Just let me die.”
I guess it’s impossible to get him to join us. I really want a dragon army.
But maybe there are other monsters here who want to join us. If so, that would be great.
For now, let’s listen to what he can tell us.
