Reincarnated As A Demonic Dragon, I Formed A Pact With A Beautiful Female Lord - Chapter 288
288 No Morals
The six-winged Seraphim fled from the scene. Others had no intention to keep fighting. The Light Dragons and the Angel Army followed suit.
The magical siege cannons caught Xu Yuan’s attention. He flew toward the creature controlling the siege cannons. Everyone fell silent.
The Dark Demon Dragon, with dark flames burning on his body, stared at the creature with disdain.
The humanoid creature felt a chill run down its spine. Its mind went blank. The other creatures covered their mouths and cowered in fear. They didn’t dare make a sound.
!!
As Xu Yuan swooped down, the creatures felt the terrifying pressure of his aura. They felt terror at his presence.
“I remember that dwarves have always remained neutral during any conflict. Weren’t your kind in charge of producing weapons for the Furnace City?”
The humanoid creature was indeed a dwarf. Xu Yuan’s words jolted him back to reality.
The dwarf raised his head. “Great Dark Demon Dragon, I am Timo, a Dwarf Alchemist. I greet you most humbly.”
He leaned down and pressed his forehead against Xu Yuan’s feet.
Xu Yuan turned toward the dwarves who were watching him. It didn’t matter whether they were with the Light-Types right now or functioned alone. They wouldn’t hurt anyone directly.
Xu Yuan opened the attribute panel of the Dwarf Alchemist.
[Timo]

[Abilities]
[Special Alchemist: Increases the success rate of alchemy bombs by 50%.]
That piqued Xu Yuan’s curiosity even further. Finally, there was a creature that could be assigned the responsibility of maintaining the cannons and weapons. With attributes like that, it was no wonder the angels wanted them by their side. Xu Yuan revealed more of the dwarf’s attributes.

[Note: An alchemist among dwarves. Has outstanding research capabilities.]
Xu Yuan was glad to have found this dwarf. His alchemy knowledge was indeed unparalleled. His abilities and attributes were also commendable.
He looked at Timo, who was still prostrating on the ground.
“Get up,” said Xu Yuan gently.
The dwarf cautiously raised his head to look at him. “No, Your Majesty. I prefer to kneel at your feet.”
Xu Yuan’s eyebrows twitched. Timo was a coward. It was no wonder he had agreed to join the Light-Types.
Timo looked at the Dark Demon Dragon in awe and fear. He didn’t say anything further for fear of offending the huge dragon.
Timo was terrified. The dragon could devour him whole. The more he thought about it, the more he panicked. He didn’t want to die!
Timo hadn’t even had the time to use the alchemy materials he had bought yesterday. He still needed to collect the money for the wares he had sold last week. He had his whole life ahead of him! How could he die here?
“Great dragon, please spare me. I will do anything you ask. My lowly existence is not worth your time. Please forgive this mistake of mine.”
Xu Yuan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. How had dwarves ever ruled the underground? They were such cowards!
However, Xu Yuan thought that their cowardice made it possible for them to survive longer.
“Timo, do you choose death, or will you submit to me?”
“I surrender!” shouted Timo. “I choose to submit to you, Master. I will serve you with the utmost dedication.”
Xu Yuan was at a loss for words. He didn’t even know what to say to the trembling dwarf because he had surrendered immediately. Xu Yuan had thought that it might have taken some… convincing.
“You’re smart for choosing that.” Xu Yuan glanced at the other dwarves around him. “Are all of you his apprentices?”
“Kneel, you ingrates!” shouted Timo. “Do you all want to die? Show your loyalty to the Master!” Timo glared at the dwarves.
The dwarves cursed Timo inwardly.
‘Bah! Coward! Is this the unyielding spirit of the dwarves that he was boasting about before?’
Inwardly, they cursed at him. Outwardly, they wore an amiable smiles on their faces and knelt in respect.
“Greetings, Master!”
When Xu Yuan saw them. His sense of accomplishment from having scared the Seraphim to flee disappeared. Defeating such cowardly creatures wasn’t glorious. This was pathetic!
Xu Yuan sighed. Even the Seraphim had fled in terror, so what could he expect from a few dwarves?
“Pack your valuables. You and your apprentices will live in my territory from now on,” said Xu Yuan.
Timo trembled. ‘Does that mean we will live on the surface and not underground?’
He seemed to want to say something, but he shut his mouth when he saw the dragon watching him attentively. He nodded.
