Reincarnated As A Demonic Dragon, I Formed A Pact With A Beautiful Female Lord

155 The Only Person In The Dark

“We can make a case of being ostracized by you all,” said the Red-Eyed Black Dragon. “We can then say

that we sought refuge with her. This way, Su Wan wouldn’t doubt us! She will think we are revealing the location of the gems for revenge.”

The Lords and the heroes looked at each other. Something didn’t feel right with the plan, but they couldn’t put a finger on it. However, when they thought at length about the plan, they realized that it did make sense.

Besides, as long as their territory remained intact, the Lords could still revive themselves. But if their gem was gone, they would be eliminated from the competition.

!!

The Red-Eyed Black Dragon made sense because it was safer to hide the gems in a specific location. Even if they failed in fighting Su Wan, their gems would still be safe.

The plan seemed to have no problems at all. However, there was one issue that the Starlight Swordsman raised.

“The plan to deceive Su Wan is sound,” he said. “However, what about her two accomplices? How do we lure them away?”

“We will use the same principle,” said the Red-Eyed Black Dragon. “Send another Lord to them. The Lord will offend them and lure them away for a fight. After we bait them away, Aiur will definitely fight!”

The Red-Eyed Black Dragon had thought about that too. He would first send someone to join Aiur. That person would have to be the one who would offend Su Wan’s two accomplices. After that, the person would run all the way to Aiur and ask for his help.

Aiur was very arrogant and easily ruffled. He wouldn’t stand by when his underling was attacked.

“That’s a good plan!” said the Lord of the Thorn Fairy. “But there is a problem…”

Everyone looked at the Lord of the Thorn Fairy. To deal with Su Wan, the Red-Eyed Black Dragon, and Lord Bevin had volunteered. However, which Lord would join Lord Aiur?

“Don’t look at the three of us,” said the Light Mage. “We need to be here to be able to fight Su Wan.”

The Light Mage referred to the three Light-Type heroes. The three of them were the main force that was going to deal with Su Wan.

The Lord of the Thorn Fairy gritted her teeth and agreed to the mission. In any case, she felt that relying on Aiur was better than relying on these Lords. If not, she would have had to give up her gem with no hope of getting it back if she agreed to pretend to join Su Wan’s side.

If she joined Aiur, she wouldn’t need to give up her gem at all. The Lord of the Thorn Fairy felt that this was better.

“Let’s not waste any time, we have to quickly execute the plan!”

It was already the second day. On the third day, the competition would be over. The score would be calculated according to the number of gems they had. They didn’t have much time to deal with Su Wan!

The Lords and the Light-Type heroes went to set their trap.

The Thorn Fairy and her Lord headed to Aiur to seek refuge.

Lord Bevin was still in a daze. He was supposed to head to Su Wan’s location with his hero, the Red-Eyed Black Dragon.

When they were far away from Snow Mountain, Lord Bevin finally asked the question that was burning in his heart. “Blackie, what’s wrong? I feel like you were too reckless in making that decision.”

The Red-Eyed Black Dragon had enthusiastically proposed the idea of dealing with Su Wan. Lord Bevin knew his hero. He noticed that his hero was acting strange.

The Red-Eyed Black Dragon hadn’t told his Lord the truth yet. He hid the full information. “Don’t worry about it,” said the Red-Eyed Black Dragon. “Just follow the plan for now. Leave the rest to me.”

Lord Bevin was now certain that something was terribly wrong. However, he didn’t know what exactly was amiss.

He decided to believe in the Red-Eyed Black Dragon and follow his lead. He sat on the back of the Red-Eyed Black Dragon as he flew in the sky.

Soon, they reached a camp. A bonfire was raging.

“Who is it? You dare fly above our camp? Do you have a death wish?” asked the White Dragon Saint.

The Red-Eyed Black Dragon flew down. “Please don’t hurt us! We are here to seek refuge.”

Xu Yuan and the others knew about the plan. They played along with the Red-Eyed Black Dragon. The only person who was kept in the dark was Lord Bevin.

Lord Bevin only knew that his hero was acting, so he played along too.

Xu Yuan lazily opened his eyes and looked at the Red-Eyed Black Dragon.

The Fallen Angel flew over and stood in front of Lord Bevin.

“Refuge? What do you mean?” asked the Fallen Angel.

The Red-Eyed Black Dragon didn’t answer immediately. Instead, he looked at Lord Bevin anxiously. He pretended to forget his lines and was silently asking his Lord for help.

Lord Bevin also became anxious. He followed his hero because his hero seemed to know what he was doing. But now, his hero was lost. ‘How could he forget his lines at such a critical moment?’

Bevin calmed himself. “We are here to join you. As a token of our sincerity, we come with a very important secret we want to reveal to you.”

The plan was a mess. Lord Bevin couldn’t remember his lines well. “W-we… were the member of an alliance that…”

Lord Bevin told them about the alliance formed by the Light-Types, who were planning to fight Su Wan and her team.

Bevin was smart. He knew that lies were more convincing when they were shrouded in half-truths. “The other members looked down on us. They threaten to steal our gem if we don’t do our job well.”

Lord Bevin narrated his imaginary tragic experience. However, a few drops of tears squeezed out of his eyes. Xu Yuan and the others were amazed at the scene. Lord Bevin certainly knew how to act.

“I heard about you all. I heard that you are very strong. I want to join you and fight them. I come with important information regarding the Competition Gems.”

Lord Bevin recalled the plan and took out his Competition Gem. “As proof of my loyalty, I hand you my own gem.” He gave it to Su Wan. “They are planning to attack you. For this reason, they have hidden their Competition Gems so that they won’t be taken away. I know where they hid the gems and I can lead you to the location.”
