Dragon Clan: Starting from obtaining Yaki, counterattack against the gods

Chapter 317 The Dragon King Doesn’t Need Friends

Constantine and Eri rushed out the back door of Genji Heavy Industries, with the cold rain pouring down on them.

Eri is tall and thin, while Constantine is thin and immature. In the dark night, they stumble and stumble, and can't run fast at all.

Eri had no idea what was going on. Her beautiful eyes were filled with confusion and fear. She didn't know if it was tears or rain that were running down her beautiful face. She suddenly felt as if she had done something wrong.

She knew clearly that the strange man on horseback and Norton were both coming for her.

Constantine was protecting her and even broke up with his closest brother for this. Eri felt extremely uncomfortable, but she didn't know what to do. She could only be pulled by Constantine and stagger forward.

But where can they run to?

The tall buildings in the distance were looming in the rain, the lights became blurred through the rain, the hustle and bustle of the city was diluted by the rain, the whole world was very quiet, and the only sound in the wind and rain was their violent breathing.

It seemed as if they were the only two people left in the world.

The sound of dripping rain was mixed with the faint sound of horse hooves. The ghost-like fellow was following them all the time. He didn't seem to be in a hurry, nor did he speed up because his prey was running wildly. He still walked at a steady pace.

But he is not the biggest threat.

"Kankang, I'm sorry." Eri's voice was choked with sobs, her eyes were red, and her expression was guilty: "It's because I was too disobedient and had to come back to find you that I ended up like this."

Constantine looked back at her. His wet black hair fell on his eyes, making him look like a distressed puppy. He tried hard to force a smile on his pale face and said softly:
"It's okay. It's not Eri's fault."

He was probably really bad at comforting others. He opened his mouth but didn't know what to say and could only keep repeating "It's okay".

Constantine knew that he was a flawed Dragon King, and in the eyes of many guys he was not even worthy of the noble title of Dragon King.

He knew since he was born that he was just food for his brother, but he never thought there was anything wrong because it was a matter of course.

Because of his own defects, he was unable to give birth to a huge dragon body. He possessed great power but did not know how to use it. He was like a guard guarding a treasure house. However, he did not think there was anything wrong with it. Instead, he was willing to happily guard the power for his brother, waiting for the day when his brother needed it.

This world is too complicated and he can never fit in. Whether it is his own people or the human world, they are all very distant and complicated to him. He cannot understand the conspiracies and calculations, nor does he understand too many twists and turns.

Growing up, Norton was the only one in his world, so he never thought that one day he would disobey his brother.

Until he met Eri, he was an outlier among the dragon clan, and Eri was an outlier among humans, and they became friends.

He didn't know why dragons and humans couldn't be friends, he just knew that Eri said they were the best in the world.

He didn't want to disobey Norton's orders, but he only had Eri as his friend, and there was only one Eri in the world.

The world of children is always pure. When they are happy, they are happy; when they are sad, they are sad; and when they are reluctant to give up, they are reluctant to give up.

It's like a naughty child who refuses to let go of a cute kitten and insists on taking it home to raise. No matter how much the adults persuade him, even if he is beaten and cries, he just doesn't want to give it up.

What's more, kittens are so cute. They can meow mischievously and play various games with children who are always alone, letting these lonely children know that the world is so interesting.

Then it's not just a simple cat, they are best friends.

Adults are very confused. How can humans and cats be friends? And how can people regard pets as family members? Children can't explain it, so they can only stubbornly say that they are the same, and cats and humans can be friends.

But reality is always cruel. No matter how the child cries and begs, or how he throws a tantrum, what can the child do if the adult insists on beating the kitten to death?

The child had no choice. Even if he cried until his voice was hoarse and his eyes were swollen, he could never find his cat friend again.

Constantine knew that he couldn't fight Norton, just like a child couldn't disobey his parents, but he was still stubborn and wanted to escape with Eri. He didn't know where to escape to, nor did he know where he could go. He only knew that he couldn't stop.

But after running a long way, he suddenly looked ahead and was stunned.

At the end of the dark and narrow road ahead, a man in a white robe stood there. His whole body was burning hot, and the rain would evaporate when it came within half a meter of his body, giving off wisps of white smoke.

In such a heavy rain, the man's body was not stained by even a drop of rain. His pupils were a golden color, and his face, which was always expressionless as if he was indifferent to everything, was now suppressing anger.

"Constantine." The man spoke each word with a cold and hard dignity in his voice: "Do you want to be my enemy?"

"Brother..." Constantine stared at Norton blankly, his eyes slowly turning red.

The boy stood in the rain, wet, his pale face full of sadness, like an abandoned beagle.

Norton's expression paused slightly, and the coldness and anger in his eyes slowly eased, but his tone remained flat, as cold and hard as snow falling on a glacier.

"Constantine, human, it is unbelievable that you have forgotten my words."

"But we are friends..." The boy's voice was a little choked, and he held Eiry's hand tightly, like a helpless child holding a kitten.

"The Dragon King doesn't need friends." Norton looked him in the eyes and said word by word: "Humans are not worthy of being the Dragon King's friends."

"Leave her to me, and I can pretend nothing happened."

Constantine kept shaking his head. Even though his face was full of sadness, he was still unwilling to hand over the girl he was protecting behind him.

He wanted to turn around and run back, but the man riding the Pegasus had already blocked their way out and was watching this scene with great interest, his attitude high and mighty, as sacred and majestic as a god.

They were backed into a corner.

"Constantine, don't be stubborn." Norton slowed down his voice, "I promise you, I will find you a few more humans after this matter is resolved."

"But they are not Eri." Constantine said stubbornly: "I only want Eri."

The two Dragon King brothers stared at each other for a long time, neither of them was willing to bow his head. In millions of years, this was the first time that Constantine said no to Norton, and perhaps it would be the last time.

Norton felt that he had the right to be angry. No one had ever dared to disobey him like this. If it were anyone else, no matter if it was the Dragon King or something else, he would definitely grind him to ashes.

But it was Constantine.

It was Constantine who had been alone with him for thousands of years.

After an unknown amount of time, Norton suddenly withdrew his gaze, like a parent who was helpless with a naughty child, and gave in helplessly. "I can not catch her." Norton paused here, looked at the boy's eyes that suddenly raised, and said in a cold voice: "But you have to come with me."

Constantine was stunned and asked subconsciously: "Where to?"

Norton didn't answer him, but just looked at him quietly, as if waiting for his answer.

Constantine realized something and felt a little sad, but he also knew that this was Norton's final concession, and he had no choice but to accept it.

The boy turned back reluctantly and looked at Eiry who was also staring at him blankly. Eiry shook her head at him, and tears mixed with raindrops dripped down her face.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." She kept apologizing. For the first time in her life, she regretted her willfulness. She shouldn't have disobeyed. It was she who was too willful and it was she who implicated Constantine.

It would have been better if she had gone with Uesugi Yue. She shouldn't have sneaked back. Everyone told her that Eri should be good and obedient, but why didn't she do that?
She regretted it and she felt so sad.

"It's okay." Constantine said softly, "Didn't you say that good friends should help each other? I'm glad you came back to see me."

"But I have to leave now. I don't know how long I will be gone, but I promise you, I will come back to find you. Will you wait for me?"

Eri was choking with sobs and unable to speak.

"Don't cry, we'll play and watch TV together when I come back, but before that, Eri, please be obedient, okay?"

He asked like a little adult: "Will Eri be obedient this time?"

Eiry nodded desperately, her dark red eyes filled with reluctance.

"Then go find your family now." The boy smiled silently and waved to the girl: "Goodbye, Eri."

Eiry bit her lips hard to stop herself from crying. She looked at the boy deeply, as if she wanted to engrave his appearance into her mind. Finally, she stumbled into the heavy rain with a heart full of reluctance and sadness.

Seeing Eri was about to leave, Odin, who had been watching the show, frowned. His face was covered with a silver mask, but dissatisfaction could still be seen in his lava-like pupils.

"Norton, what do you mean?" His voice was low, but it seemed to be wrapped in thunder: "Have you forgotten our plan?"

The four monarchs are unable to deal with the White King. Even though the White King has been divided into several parts, the gap between them still cannot be made up, because this is a gap in origin.

It is true that they want to kill Frigga, but that doesn't mean they are not afraid of the source girl.

Even Norton's relationship with Genjitsu became worse and worse as Genjitsu's strength increased. They both knew this very well, but they just didn't reveal it.

There are many annoying people in this world. The most annoying ones are those who do not play by the rules at all. The only people more annoying than these are those who are strong and do not play by the rules.

Norton chose to cooperate with Yuan Zhinv in the beginning, but he saw the potential in her. Because of the blood contract, it was not convenient for the four monarchs to fight each other. In addition, he had just awakened and his own strength was still lacking. He could not do everything himself, so he really needed a sharp knife to do things for him.

Maybe it was because of Old Tang's influence that he saved her at all costs when he first woke up, but as his memory recovered, the guy called Old Tang had completely disappeared, and had been completely obliterated by the memory of the Dragon King for tens of millions of years.

He is Norton, the Dragon King Norton, the eldest son of the Black King. He is more arrogant than any other monarch. Except for Yuan Zhinv, he is too lazy to even look at anyone in the eight Snake families, because God never cares about ants.

Even Yuan Zhinv was just like Samson in his eyes, and was essentially a dragon servant.

But as Yuan Zhinv's power grew stronger, he became more and more wary. The relationship between them was maintained by interests. They were allies when their interests were common, but when their interests conflicted, they would never be merciful to each other.

When Yuan Zhinu's bloodline completely broke through the second generation and became the first generation, and was on equal footing with the Dragon Kings, their interests had already begun to conflict.

There is only so much power and authority, and when someone comes to power, someone else will naturally lose it, and when a new king ascends the throne, the one who opposes it the most is the old king.

If it weren't for the fact that Genjitsu was so out of control and completely ignored the advice, awakening Frigga, a more powerful and more troublesome existence, perhaps they would have torn their faces apart long ago instead of maintaining this precarious relationship.

They really wanted to kill Frigga, but they would not let go of Genjitsu no Onmyoji who also represented the White King. It's just that compared to Frigga, Genjitsu no Onmyoji seemed much easier to deal with.

Among the many methods, the most labor-saving one is to use these humans.

Although I don't quite understand why he still cares about these weak humans when he already controls the power of the White King, but since he cares, then it will be useful.

In their opinion, the best outcome would be for Frigga and Genji to die together, but that was of course difficult, so they needed to make the final move.

Now Frigga's location has been confirmed to be in the Arctic Circle, but Genjitsu has disappeared. Norton and Odin quickly reached a consensus and rushed back to Japan directly, preparing to capture a few hostages first, and they would eventually force them out.

But they came up empty-handed. They finally caught Eri, but Norton wanted to let her go. Naturally, Odin was unwilling to do so.

But in the face of his doubts, Norton just raised his eyes and sneered: "I changed my mind again, is that not okay?"

Odin's eyes also flashed with displeasure of being offended, but he didn't say anything after all. He just said: "In this case, then let's each rely on our own abilities."

As he was about to chase Eri, Constantine suddenly became anxious and reached out to pull Norton's sleeve, his clear eyes full of anxiety: "Brother..."

Norton didn't say anything, but his actions told it all. He raised his hand, and the extreme flames were compressed into dense black lines, which intertwined into a net and blocked Odin.

"I said, let her go." He uttered a few words coldly: "Don't you understand?"

……

At the same time, Eri, who was running in the heavy rain, stumbled and fell to the ground over a dead tree. The dense branches temporarily shielded her from the wind and rain. She took out a cracked cell phone from her pocket and called the top contact.

The phone rang for a long time but no one answered. Eiry got up from the ground in a panic. The girl was covered in mud and her skin was scratched by stones, leaving tiny wounds. However, she was unaware of it and continued to run while stubbornly making the call.

Finally, after no one answered the call for who knows how many times, the call was finally connected, and Eri's familiar voice was heard on the other end.

"Eri? What's wrong?"

The moment she heard this voice, Eri finally couldn't help herself, she cried loudly in the heavy rain: "Sister, they bullied me, they all bullied me, and they also took Constantine away, sister, I am so sad, sister, where are you..."

Eri cried out of breath: "Where are you, sister? I'm so sad, I'm really sad..."

The breathing on the other end of the phone suddenly stopped.
