Dragon King's Harem Chapter 200. Cold Interrogation I

"I know, but you should think about your safety first," I said worriedly.

She shook her head from side to side.
"I can't..." she whispered.

I exhaled in exasperation. A frown on my forehead.
"I don't understand why you are so stubborn about this."

"Forgive me," she said in regret.

Once again a long exhale out of my mouth.
"It's fine." I took a Mana Potion from my inventory. "Just promise me to take a rest after this," I said again without taking my eyes off her.

Without another word, I drank the potion without swallowing it. As my hand dropped the empty magic flask, I bumped my lips to hers, flowing the liquid from my mouth into her mouth. Her eyes widened in shock due to my sudden movement. So did the others, but I didn't care about it, instead, I deepened my kiss.

- Prang!

The empty flask shattered into pieces and disappeared. At the same time, the liquid rushed into her mouth. As she swallowed the liquid, I could see her gaze soften before she slowly closed her eyes.

Half an hour after General Kul's defeat, a battle horn sounded from a distance. It was a command to retreat. That sound made me realize that Uraugh already knew that General Kul had lost. After the orcs left, the dragons evacuated their injured comrades and brought them back to the fortress. Some brought the dead to be honorably cremated with my fire in the courtyard with a short ceremony and prayer. I presided over this ceremony alone.

After that, they collected the ashes and spread them into the sky, the place where the dragons should be, between the sky and the land. What they brought home for the dead's families was either the dead's fangs or horns. It was a sign of how a soldier fought to their last drop of blood.

Amid the dark of the night and the cold wind, the funeral ceremony ended with the dragon tribe's lament as a tribute to the dead dragons. Even though it was a funeral, neither of us looked sad. All of us look proud since the sacrifice of our comrades was not in vain.

We won! So we should be proud of that!

Then we neutralized the ground in front of the fortress with an ice elemental changer potion to remove any remaining effects. In just a few minutes, all back to normal as before.

Although I wanted to let the fire burn, I couldn't let the fire burn the ground for too long. The potion itself was already interfering with this place's Mana flow, if I left it for too long then this place's Mana flow would be permanently damaged. So I neutralized it before I continue this war tomorrow. I even planned to use my Plant Manipulation skill once this war was over in order to restore this place to its original state.

Just like that, the first day of the war ended.

Finishing our quick dinner, I and Evelina rushed to the prison to interrogate General Kul. She insisted on coming with me after she rested for a bit. She said Uraugh's target was her, so she wanted to know exactly what happened. As for the fortress' security, I left everything to General Guillotine. Including the fortress emergency repair process.

I didn't want the orcs to take advantage of the hole that General Kul used to infiltrate. I also ordered the soldiers to tighten their guard and check around the fortress to make sure that nothing like this happened again in the future. According to my prediction, the orcs would take advantage of the dragon's fatigue after we fought the Minotaur and our happiness after we got our first win. So there was a high possibility that they would attack us tonight.

We went down a spiral stone staircase illuminated by the dim crystals on the stone wall that served as torches before we arrived at the prison. Unlike the warmth on the previous floor, it was a bit damp and cold here. The darkness reminded me of the Black Grotto.

Arriving at the bottom, we walked down a row of empty cells. Yes, the dragons would rather kill their enemies mercilessly than catch and feed them. So the prison was hardly used. Even I preferred to kill General Kul if not because I wanted to interrogate him.

“Your Majesty,” greeted the guards who stood guard in front of the largest cell in the place, bowing their heads politely. At least there were about 10 soldiers there, just to guard that one cell. I put them as a precaution in case someone tried to free him, but it looked like the Orc assumed the general was dead.

I answered them with a simple nod.

Deftly, the guard opened the cell door for us.

We went inside. There wasn't much there other than the general who was trapped in the big iceberg. The chains bound the ice with the four pillars at the corners of that cell. It kept the ice stand and stayed in place.

The general himself was unconscious. From his status, I could tell he was still alive. Even if he was dying, I was sure he still had the strength to answer my questions. Well, I was not sure he would answer me since it was clear from his state I was not interested in sparing his life. It was just about whatever I would give him a quick death or a long and painful death.

Evelina and I stopped a meter in front of him, staring at the once gallant general. His face was pale and he barely breathed. It was a terrifying sight. It even made Evelina tremble.

The human side inside me should also be shaking due to the sight, but my dragon instincts told me otherwise. There was no pity in my heart, only hatred for what he did to Evelina.

"Wake him up," I commanded coldly.
