Ashen Dragon Chapter 723

Chapter 723: Chapter 104 Chimera's Choice_2 Chapter 723: Chapter 104 Chimera's Choice_2 Think carefully, respected King of Chimera, do you… truly wish to be trampled underfoot by those newcomers?”

Albert revealed a seemingly gentle smile, warm as the spring breeze, his black cloak enveloping his whole body before he vanished into thin air.

This devil only left behind a black mist exuding the scent of Purgatory, and a highly tempting phrase, “Mighty King of Chimera, if you come to realize, I will come to see you again.”

Chimera panted heavily, looking at the gradually dissipating black mist, with diverse expressions on the faces of its three heads.

The dominant Red Dragon Skull in the center exhaled a puff of white smoke and said gravely, “No one should divulge that this devil has been here, the Emperor is our eternal master.”

The lion head on the left also shook its mane, then cursed, “Bastard from Hell…”

However, the goat head's eyes revealed hesitation and greed, murmuring softly, “But that devil mentioned, it doesn't require our betrayal, just a small favor once, and we could achieve a status comparable to that trusted Ogre retainer.

He is now the Emperor's most trusted retainer, the Prime Minister of the Empire, but clearly, we were the first to follow the Emperor…”

Hearing the goat's words, a trace of craving also emerged in the eyes of the other two heads, after all, they were one being, capable of influencing each other, and as a species, Chimera profoundly desired power and status.

But soon, the dominant dragon head envisioned His Majesty's magnificent posture in its mind, trembling throughout, without harboring any other thoughts, only submission.

It clenched its teeth, whispering lowly, “No, we can't risk it.”

The goat retorted again, “But…the contract doesn't require us to betray His Majesty.”

The dragon head directly took over control of the body, ignoring the goat's arguments, and strode deeper into the lair, “Stop, that devil can't be trusted.”

For some reason, the Red Dragon Skull's golden vertical pupils faintly revealed a trace of ruthlessness.

“Roar–”
Outside the cave, a dozen Chimeras were fawningly howling, continuously flapping their wings, circling midair, proudly displaying their strong and graceful bodies.

Meanwhile, the King of Chimera stuck its head out, gestured with its claw towards the youngest female Chimera, leading her into the depths of the cave to indulgently propagate its offspring.

Soon, urgent, fervent bestial roars emanated from that profound cavern, spreading throughout the territory, informing all beings within a several miles radius that the King of Chimera was once again exercising its supreme authority within the community.

Night fell, and the wind howled fiercely, echoing through the valley like the cries of beasts.

Deep in the cave, a massive beast with the heads of a dragon, lion, and goat lay squatting on a stone platform, emitting thunderous snoring sounds. Even the female chimeras dared not approach this place, signifying my king's dignity and power.

At this moment, the goat head suddenly opened its eyes, its dark pupils shimmering with a ghostly glow in the darkness.

Subsequently, a Hexagram of Flame materialized on the rocky walls of the cave, dim sparks gathering, slowly forming into the lean figure of the devil–Albert.

The devil bowed slightly, speaking in a very soft voice, “Noble King of Chimera, have you decided?”

The goat head nodded quickly, having accumulated spiritual power for several days, finally managing to seize partial control over the body during sleep.

Gaining the Devil's Wisdom was not only about endowing the trinity of Chimera with intelligence but also about allowing the goat's personality to gradually take dominance.

After accepting the blessing of Dragon Blood, although all three heads became wiser and Chimera immensely powerful, the dragon's head had become too domineering and tyrannical.

“Very good.”

Albert clapped lightly, walking forward with great anticipation, taking out that parchment of contract from Hell, flickering with flames.

The goat head wanted to peruse it carefully but unrecognized Common Tongue nor was fluent in Purgatorial language, it could only nod pretentiously.

Albert said, “Good, the content of this contract is that at a crucial moment you help me once, and I will grant you… the Devil's Wisdom.”

He pointed at the bottom of the contract, smiling, “Lord Chimera, right here, press your claw.”

Upon doing so, you will gain endless wisdom, seizing all that you deserve.” The devil's seductive voice echoed in his ears.

The goat head gathered its strength, almost exhausting all its spiritual power, barely managing to control Chimera's right arm, slowly raising it and pressing it onto that parchment–
“Boom!”

Instantly, a booming thunder-like explosion occurred in the cave, with ancient calls emanating from the Styx River.

The sinister lines of text on the contract flashed continuously, the Array depicted on it emitted black mist, and countless sparks swept across from the parchment.

“Roar–what are you doing!”

Chimera's dragon head suddenly woke up, instantly seizing control over the body, the dragon head's golden eyes glaring angrily at the goat head and the demon.

“Ha ha ha ha, excellent, fantastic!”

Albert spread his arms, raising his head to laugh wildly, surrounded by Hellfire burning vigorously around his body.

The devil watched Chimera with his black pupils, revealing a sinister smile, his mouth almost stretching to his ears.

He extended his hand, pointing at Chimera's goat head, “King of Chimera, a devil never breaks his word, the contract is formed, and you shall gain– the Devil's Wisdom!”
