Rise Of The Dragon Emperor

Chapter 131 A chat



For the first time since the competition started, the Draco family sat on the dinner table together on the break day before the semi finals.

Ronan and Percy were their usual amiable selves, however the atmosphere at the dinner table was still a little awkward.

Sierra had always taught the kids to never compare each other and had made sure that the treatment the two recieved was the same despite their talents their merits or their achievements in life.

This made it so that the two brothers never had to compete for their place in family , attention or love which made them grow and bond with each other as they were ultimately not competitors but two people sharing the same blood.

However now that there was the potential of brother fighting brother and with Luna and Augustus being on two different teams , the atmosphere was a bit strange.

Ronan kept throwing provocative glances at Percy and kept being his same old goofy self , while Percy roasted the vegetables he was eating before taking a crunchy bite to make a crisp bone breaking sound as he smiled at Ronan teasingly.

Sierra despised this behaviour however Alexander chuckled his a** off , he thrived off such competitiveness as for him both his sons had already won by coming number one and number two.

However when Sierra gave him the ‘ I will murder you look ‘ he instantly panicked for his life and coughed lightly and started to read from a small chit of paper Sierra had prepared for him to say , as he read in a mechanical tone ” Look boys , tommorow is the semi finals and winning and loosing is not important in life , the important part is having fun , *cough* *cough* , we fight for honor and to learn and grow and we should take care as to not inju…..

agh , Sierra i can’t speak this nonsense you asked me to , I’m sorry”..

Percy and Ronan chuckled , these were the most un-Alexander like words that Alexander had ever spoken.

As he avoided eye contact with his fuming wife , Alexander spoke his mind out

” BOYS! WHO ARE WE ? “

Ronan , Percy and Augustus instantly replied ” WE ARE DRACO “.

” WHAT DO DRACO’S DO? “.

P,R,A- ” WIN “.

” ARE WE GOING TO WIN? “

P,R- ” SIR YES SIR “

” Good! , have fun , fight strong , don’t let anyone put you down! you carry the Draco name , now make it proud .

irrespective of who wins the finals , it should be two Draco’s fighting there.

you get it boys? “.

P,R -” Aye , aye “.

The boys started to bang their forks on the table and howl like wolves , as Augustus and Alexander chuckled , however when the two husbands felt the murderous aura of their smiling wives. They choked on the food they were eating.

They understood that tonight was going to be an extremely long one and accepted their grim fates.

Although Percy and Ronan enjoyed with merth and joy , the other four members were uncannily silent.

In the end when they seperated , Percy and Ronan came face to face.

Ronan said ” Bob … fire user. Good power , show him who the boss is “.

Percy replied ” Zimo , powerful , but not as good as u “.

Then the two nodded and said ” See u in the finals , brother “.

*******

( The day of the semi finals )

The atmosphere was electric in the grand arena for the semi finals as the chants of ‘ Percy ! Percy! Percy! ‘ could be heard throughout the city.

Although there were two dear princes in Avalon , the support for Percy was clearly overwhelmingly more than Ronan.

The elder prince had been around for longer and was set to take the throne , plus his impression amongst commoners was excellent which was why he was more beloved than Ronan.

The first match saw Ronan take on Zimo as the rules of the semi finals were different than the group stages.

There was no time limit on the fights and one fought till the other was defeated or surrendered.

There were 17 wind barriers in place instead of the 3 used in the group stages for audience safety , and the fighting area was 10 times larger.

There was enough room to maneuver to make long and short range tactics count and there was a small terrain like rocks and covers available for use by contestants.

As Ronan walked onto the stage wearing only navy blue robes with the sigil of Avalon embroided in gold on his chest , he looked like the regal prince that he was as his ascend was met with thunderous cheers from the crowd.

Within the audience there was Alexander seated alongside all the guildmaster and kings in a single on huge seats , as many attendants attended the important guests with devotion.

Everyone’s eyes were glued on the 13 y/o force of nature as many complimented Alexander to have such a talented son.

Nonetheless, when the significantly higher levelled Zimo walked on the stage , amongst the jeers and Boo’s from the crowd , there was a different sharpness displayed by him as he looked more mentally focused and prepared for the fight than his clash with Percy.

The overconfidence gone , he looked like a menacing contender as more guildmasters leaned towards him winning the match than Ronan.

Percy and Bob watching on , the other two semi finalists squared off and as usual Ronan said no words to his opponent .

Zimo however said ” Your brothers debt …. shall be paid in double by me defeating you and then him too “.

Ronan chuckled as he said ” Bring it! “.

Although Zimo was much stronger than Ronan in terms of levels and had the same superior element , the only feeling that Ronan felt while facing him was anticipation as his body itched for a worthy fight and his mind yearned for a worthy opponent.

With 250,000 watching live …. the refree signalled the start of the match.
