The moonlight was like blood, barely piercing through the thick clouds, casting a sinister red veil over the ageing and mottled dock soon to be devoured by darkness.
The sea breeze carried a trace of saltiness and unease, howling through the complicated network of ropes and abandoned fishing boats, moaning like the whispers of a shipwreck.
Black Light Dragon—
The overlord of these waters!
The blood mage's body couldn't stop trembling as he faced the sea wind, mustering his voice to command:
"All fleets! Return to base! Full speed! Fire the cannons!"
"Activate all defense measures on the dock!"
The blood mage shouted commands hoarsely, staring into the distance.
He had never imagined that the Black Light Dragon, having just feasted, would appear at their base.
