Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master -
Chapter 135 Real Losers
Born after a long labor, the cub breathed faintly as if struggling to survive. Its skin was blue, whichwasn't normal. The cub was no doubt in a dangerous situation.
From a small bag, Rocky immediately took out a half-full bottle of magical saliva, which he hadcollected after he got into the military camp. The previous magical saliva he possessed ran out inthe fierce fight in the Witch Palace. So this half-full bottle of magical saliva was literally his onlytreasure now. Despite that, he did not hesitate to share this to the struggling cub. He opened thecub's mouth with his fingers, placed the bottle right before its mouth, and removed it after the cublicked the bottle once. He was worried that the cub couldn't endure the strong effect of the saliva sothe small portion should be enough. He then gently massaged its breast with his fingers.
The saliva didn't bring the cub to life right away. It made him worried, but he had strong faith thatthe cub would recover. A few moments later, its skin color gradually turned red and its breathingbecame smooth. Rocky breathed a sigh of relief.
The spirit-manipulated beast howled weakly and stared at Rocky and the cub in his hands. It waslike it was asking about its baby's health.
"It is very healthy,” Rocky said to the beast. The beast began licking its baby when Rocky broughtthe cub near it. The cub gradually opened its eyes and its eyes were full of light, which was likely aresponse to its mother's summon.
Seeing its baby was sound and safe, the beast started to close its eyes slowly. Actually, it was almostdead but it had to bear to the last moment until it saw its baby. Despite the struggle, it had to atleast make sure that the baby was safe.
The beast turned to Rocky and shed a single tear before shutting its eyes. Rocky knew it was arequest and an expectation. Rocky saved the cub's life which showed how responsible andtrustworthy he was.
"I'll take care of it and raise it." Rocky nodded to the beast as an agreement. He tried to give it areassuring smile. The beast tried to smile back with its eyes and eventually closed them.
Rocky felt sentimental and deeply touched by the maternal love of this beast. If it were not the cuthe had caused, the beast and its cub could still be together now. But he knew he had to do thateven it was cruel.
"Little baby, it's time to bid your mother farewell.” With the cub resting in his arms, Rocky took afinal look at the dead beast and bowed to it before leaving the cave.
After exiting the cave, Rocky turned around and blasted a fire from his hand. The cave collapsedwith loud crash. May it rest in peace. Rocky covered the cub with a ripped cloth from his militaryrobe and left the Maze Forest.
Soon he returned to the military camp unnoticed and went back to his room.
Uriah came up to Rock right away when he was back. Finding a cub in his hands, Uriah blinked a fewtimes and let out a howl. It shook its head and suddenly licked the cubs face.
"You seem to like it. Are you a female beast?" Until now, Rocky still didn't know Uriah's gender.Fortunately, it seemed Uriah liked this cub's company. It could take care of the cub during hisabsence.
"Now, this cub is your baby. Let's call it Rubygon,” Rocky said to Uriah as he put the cub on the bed.Happy about what Rocky said, Uriah jumped to the bed immediately and covered the cub with itsbody like what a mother did to its baby.
Suddenly someone knocked on the door.
Rocky went to open the door and was greeted by none other than Thor and Joss. Afraid of themseeing little Rubygon, he intentionally blocked their view of the room.
"Rocky, where were you? I didn't see you when I came back," Joss asked.
"Well, I rushed to the toilet because of my diarrhea.” It was a lousy excuse, but Thor and Jossbelieved him anyway.
"Why did you come here?" Rocky asked them
"The commander asked us to tell you that she was looking for you. Also, we want to congratulateyou on your promotion to be our captain,” Thor said to Rocky. From his smile and words, it wasobvious that he thought Rocky was a hundred times better than Zander.
Rocky had totally forgotten about the promotion. It was only a few days after he came to themilitary camp. The rise in position was totally unexpected, though it was only a humble squad."Okay, I will go there later.” Rocky nodded to them and then slammed the door. It closed with aloud thud.
Rocky instructed Uriah to look after little Rubygon. He went to a well to cleanse the blood in hishands. Afterwards, he went to the commander's tent, which was at the center of the whole camp.On his way there, Rocky noticed that a lot of soldiers and spirit manipulators were talking abouthim. It seemed that they took great interests in him as if he was an unearthed treasure. He didn'trealize that he was now the talk of the camp after being promoted to the captain of the sixth squad.What made Rocky known was not about the contribution that he had made but his incompetence.They thought that the sixth squad would definitely be a trash one with an incapable captain likehim.
A lot of people still didn't understand why Marin promoted Rocky to captain. No one believed it wasRocky's capability but his luck that helped him bring the whole sixth squad back to the camp safeand sound.
The rumor about Rocky was now heatedly discussed in the camp. So he was for sure a well-knownperson right now. Rocky did not like the attention he was getting
Rocky was stopped by two guards who were the spirit manipulators at the fourth grade of theMortal Stage. Seeing him ragged and in a torn military rope, they shouted at him, "Who are you? Doyou know where this is? This is the commander's tent. You piece of trash, get away from here!"
"I'm the new captain of the sixth squad. The commander asked me to come.” Rocky glanced atthem, answering nonchalantly. He didn't like their tones but he didn't care enough to engage theminto an argument.
"Ah. So the loser captain are you." The two guards surveyed him with scorn, "What a loser.”
"What is the commotion out there?" From the tent came an authoritative female voice.
The two guards were scared out of their wits upon hearing the voice. They signaled Rocky at onceto get in.
Rocky looked at them with disdain, thinking they were the real losers. However, they were not worthhis time and energy. He rolled his eyes and walked towards the tent.
