Chapter 126: Sunfyre = Snack
Sunfyre moved with agility, dashing away the smaller dragons that blocked his path, and slammed his head into Dreamfyre.
"Roar..."
Caught off guard, Dreamfyre was knocked to the ground. Sunfyre, smaller but relentless, immediately lunged at Dreamfyre’s neck, aiming to tear off a chunk of flesh.
"Roar..."
Dreamfyre hastily retracted its neck and let out a furious roar, flapping its wings to strike Sunfyre repeatedly. Sunfyre, smaller but more aggressive, immediately lunged for Dreamfyre's neck, aiming to rip off a chunk of flesh.
"Roar..."
Dreamfyre hastily retracted its neck and let out a furious roar, flapping its wings to strike Sunfyre repeatedly. Despite Sunfyre's ferocity, he struggled to land a meaningful bite.
Dreamfyre, though not the largest of the second-generation dragons, was still formidable compared to the fourth-generation Sunfyre. Dreamfyre's experience and size gave it an edge, despite being out of practice.
With a mighty breath, Dreamfyre unleashed a torrent of orange and light blue dragon flame, knocking Sunfyre to the ground. Sunfyre staggered as he tried to rise, his smaller size making it difficult to match Dreamfyre’s strength.
As the dragons tussled, Aegon realized the gravity of his mistake and tried to flee.
Whoosh!
An arrow grazed his cheek, slicing off a strand of hair. Aegon froze in place, fear gripping him as he saw the arrow had come from his brother Rhaegar.
"Run, and you’ll regret it," Rhaegar's cold voice echoed, sending a shiver down Aegon’s spine.
Glancing at the two battling dragons, Rhaegar discarded his longbow and advanced toward Aegon with a menacing calm. Aegon didn’t dare move, his fear paralyzing him.
When Rhaegar reached him, he grabbed Aegon's hair and slammed him to the ground with a thud.
"You insolent brat, your arrogance has grown!"
Ignoring Aegon's cries, Rhaegar pinned him down, holding his head with one hand and raising the other to deliver a harsh slap.
Splat—
A slap jerked Aegon's head to the side, and a red, swollen mark immediately appeared on his cheek.
"I... shouldn't have ordered Sunfyre to cause trouble..."
Splat—
Rhaegar backhanded Aegon again. "Nope, rephrase!"
"I shouldn't have run. I shouldn't have mocked Aemond. I apologize..."
Receiving another slap, Aegon’s head reeled, and he hastily admitted his faults.
Slap—
Another blow landed, splitting Aegon's lip and drawing blood. Rhaegar stood, gripping Aegon's hair, lifting him to his feet. His voice, a cold whisper in Aegon's ear, sounded almost demonic. "No, go on!"
"I don’t know, I really don’t know. If you say I'm wrong, then I'm wrong..."
Rhaegar's grip tightened as he pointed towards Cannibal. "You think you're proud of your newfound mastery of dragons?"
"What do you... what do you want to do?" Aegon stammered, his eyes darting to the struggling Sunfyre.
"Don't worry, my dragon will show you," Rhaegar replied calmly, yet ominously.
"Roar..."
Cannibal, sensing its master's intent, stomped down hard on Sunfyre, eliciting a mournful wail from the golden dragon.
"Don't! Sunfyre is just a dragon; he doesn’t know any better!" Aegon twisted in a futile attempt to escape.
Bang!
Rhaegar kneed Aegon in the back, forcing him to watch. "Watch and see what happens when you don’t recognize your mistakes."
Cannibal roared, its pupils locked onto Sunfyre, a cruel grin spreading across its muzzle. Sunfyre was its prey, a delicacy. It had been a long time since Cannibal had tasted its own kind, and it was eager for a bite.
The next moment, Cannibal's claw lifted, and it lowered its head, teeth sinking into Sunfyre's neck.
"No! It's going to eat Sunfyre!" Aemond, watching from the sidelines, collapsed in fear.
