女部长出差被部下中出中文字幕

The moment when the group saw the Undying Army turned into black ashes that scattered along the wind, they finally sighed in relief before collapsing on the ground, mentally exhausted.

The series of continuous battles that they went through was really too exhausting and the physical and mental fatigue that they were getting was starting to pile up, making them feel their exhaustion more and more.

Unfortunately, it was not the time to rest yet. They still had a few more fights to finish before all of this was over. But the good thing was this next battle seemed a little easier compared to previous battles that they went through since they now had powerful helpers on their side, backing them up.

Having that thought, they forced themselves to stand up and ready themselves. It was also at that moment when Shin arrived on their side. "We are almost there. One final job and this troublesome quest is over."

He swept his gaze at everyone and saw the fatigue on their faces. He took a deep breath before continuing. "You can leave the next part to me, Simba, and Siegfried. You guys can guard the surrounding area and stop the Pandemonium Descendants from interfering."

He then turned to Black Hand. "As always, brother Black Hand here will be leading you."

"I hope that we are not burdening you too much," he added before saying in a very sincere tone.

Black Hand appreciated the gesture and added. "That is all good. In fact, we should be the ones who are thanking you for bringing our team here. If it is just us, then I am sure that we will not be able to reach this place, much less complete our quest."

Due to the connection of the quest that they had earlier, their small team encountered Shin and the others. Moreover, they were also saved by Arthur during that time. If he did not step up and help them at that time, then the quest item that they had would most likely be lost.

While Black Hand was lost in his thoughts, Cloe suddenly walked to Shin and asked. "Are you sure that you will not need me to help you guys? Do you really not need a healer to support you?"

Shin understood what she was thinking. "It is fine. It is not like we are the ones who will be taking the frontline. This is the main scenario of the quest, so we will be relying on the help of NPCs to finish it. It will be much easier compared to the previous battles."

"Instead, your help will be more helpful to them. Your large-scale Buffs and Heals are perfect for such situations. It is also perfect for Chaotic Lucks\' army. With you on their side, the power of his forces will always be a notch higher."

Cloe pouted her lips for a moment before nodding her head reluctantly. "Okay! Just be careful. It is the most critical part of the quest. We can\'t afford to have any accidents happen to you three."

"Don\'t worry, it is not like we are going to blindly charge at the enemy. We will be playing this safe," he added as he patted her head gently.

After that, he walked toward the others and started making arrangements, especially for Faker, Ara, and Alucard since they would have a more important role this time. Their scouting abilities were required for the completion of this quest.

While Shin was discussing the final strategies with the others, Arthur quickly flew toward the place where Archon and Eira were fighting. He could leave all of the complicated stuff to his brother while he would be taking one of the rewards that he deserved.

The battle between the two dragons was still underway, so Arthur could not recklessly get near them to avoid getting hit in the crossfire by accident.

Flying in the sky, he saw Archon fearlessly charging at the ice spells of Eira. He was leisurely advancing forward, not caring about the hail of icicles and blocks of ice hitting his body. He was treating them as if they were ordinary pebbles being thrown at him.

And when he reached Eira with his talons, he repeatedly hit her and smashed her head on the ground. He did it until the snowstorm-like spells around them finally subdued.

A moment later, Archon let go of her and spoke. "It seems like you finally regained your consciousness, stupid brat. I wonder what your mother and grandmother will think when they learn about this."

On the ground, Eira picked herself up with great difficulty while shaking off the dizziness that she was suffering. She did not respond to Archon at all as she focused on recovering herself and reorganizing her thoughts.

She might not be herself earlier, but she still could remember what she had done as well as the beating that suffered from Archon\'s hands.

Not long after, she raised her head and glared at Archon. "Chaos Dragon Archon! So, you finally escape from your imprisonment."

She then focused her gaze on him and suddenly sneered. "But you\'ve become so weak. If those enemies of yours learn about this, then your life will surely be difficult."

Archon did not mind her ridicule since he was more than aware of his current state. Which was the reason why he agreed to form a contract with Arthur. He was planning to use that little Dragonkin to hide while he was recovering his strength.

He knew better than anyone who he was hated in the world after all of the \'sins\' that he committed in the past, so he had to hide from the eyes of many to avoid unnecessary troubles. Especially when most of his enemies were currently at the apex of the world.

Eira ignored him before casting her gaze to the sky where she saw Arthur riding a golden dragon. A certain part of her memory was suddenly triggered when she saw him and the dragon. "Child, come down here. Let me thank you properly for saving me from the hands of that filthy undead."

She could still remember what had happened. She also saw the current form of her previous partner, who fought alongside her in countless wars and battles. It pained her so much and felt sorry for him. But she had to move on.

Dragons were creatures that could live for countless years. They already experienced a lot of things, especially deaths, and partings. She was already familiar with these feelings and had already gotten used to them.

Death and departure were common things for creatures who could live for countless years and survive through the passage of time. They had long become numb to such lonely feelings and thought that it was normal for all living things to go back to nature.

All they could do was treasure the memories of the others who they held dear and prayed for their souls while continuing to live on. Sooner or later, it might be their turn to leave the others and enter eternal slumber.

Arthur controlled the golden dragon skillfully and let it land gently on the ground. And after landing, he quickly dismounted and gave Eira a salute unique to Dragons and Dragonkins. "Greetings, Senior."

Eira observed him for a couple of moments before nodding her head. "The density of your bloodline is pure. You may already have reached that certain threshold."

She then paused for a moment before continuing. "I can also sense \'his\' inheritance on you. I guess his legacy will continue despite him departing from this world."

Arthur knew who she was talking about and slightly nodded his head. He knew very well that dragons did not want to be interrupted while talking. Unless he was permitted to talk, he could not open his mouth, or else, it would be taken as them being challenged by the other party.

Naturally, there were always been exemptions for everything. Archon, who did not know the meaning of fear, was one of them.

The Chaos Dragon ignored Eira and turned to Arthur. "Brat, I\'ve already accomplished my part of the deal, so it will be your turn next. I hope that you will not play any tricks, or else, I will guarantee that you will not like the consequences."

He did not wait for Arthur to reply as he quickly turned into a speck of light. He then went back to Arthur\'s side and circled around in a unique cycle just like the rest.

Eira watched them in amusement as the scene reminded her of her old memories once again. She then looked at Arthur meaningfully before saying. "I did not expect that the most arrogant and most prideful dragons out of everyone will form a contract with someone."

"If the Dragon Tribes have learned about this, I can\'t imagine how large the ripple that it will make," she added as she looked at Arthur in a new light.

She then paused for a moment before continuing. "Since you are the only Dragonkin around, then you must be the one who I have sensed earlier. I am also sure that you have already sensed my presence at that time."

Arthur understood her words as he looked at the certain notification that he received earlier when he first entered the Reality Manifestation during their initial collision with the army of wolves.

He nodded his head and answered. "Yes, Senior."

Eira also nodded her head. "Then I will not explain it anymore. I trust that you are already aware of our tribe\'s customs when initiating a contract. Prove yourself and I will swear my allegiance to you."

Right after she said those words, Arthur could not contain his smile as everything went according to plan. He then bowed at Eira while responding. "You can trust me in this, Senior. And I will not disappoint you."

After that, Eira raised her head and looked at the certain part of the sky above the city where she could see Dracula trying to lift the curse cast upon his kingdom.

"It looks like it is finally time to fulfill that promise," she muttered in a quiet voice between turning her head towards another direction where some old acquaintances were present.

"It looks like that stupid wolf is the only one left too," she added with a tone that was full of meaning.
