Arpious of the Planes

Also, he only really calms down if Lisa is the one scolding him, as I can't bring myself to yell at my child, so I played the role of the softer mother.

Whenever he did something bad, Lisa would beat or scold him. Then whenever he felt sad or a bit down, he would come to me to be comforted.

Playing the role of the soft mother was nice since I got to hang out with my lovely child quite a lot as he was a bit lonely.

Despite being so popular, he barely has any friends.

"*sigh*... I have to go back tomorrow," I muttered as I really didn't want to go back to that stressful ass kingdom.

I had been on a break from work due to my need to raise the child and my post-pregnancy exhaustion, but I couldn't make up any more excuses to get out of work, and the dragon even came to greet me… kind of.

"You lazy ass bitch! Get off your ass and help out! The drakes are finally making a move before we were even prepared!" He shouted, and his information caused my ears to perk up.

"Really?"

"Yes! We have to cut them off now!" He shouted into my face, so I let out a long, exhausted sigh before shifting out of bed and opening the closet.

"It's a bit sudden… but I hope you won't break on me," I muttered to my new piece of armor, which was an improved version of the one Lisa had made previously.

It essentially looked the same, but the durability was higher, it was a bit lighter… and it was just a tiny bit lewder as the armor on my legs squished my thighs and butt a bit.

"Your wives are perverts," The dragon muttered with a deadpan face.

"I'm already well aware of that," I muttered before following the dragon to the corner of the room where we were sucked into the shadows.

One of his personal assassins had gained a new skill called [Shadow Portal], which was a skill that I greatly wanted, but I couldn't just ask him to hand over a finger of something.

If I did, he would most likely reject it, and whenever he transports me, it would just be an awkward experience.

Plus, he is one of the guys surveying me as I do my recon mission in the drake kingdom which I guess made a move.

I didn't think they would make such a bold move, but after hearing some more information, I realized they had just begun their recon.

"I was relaxing, and you panic because of a recon. Just kill them and get it over with," I sighed deeply, but it seemed the dragon had more to say.

"Let me finish explaining… So, on that recon team, they're carrying it. The Ancient Frost. I can't tell if it is bait or not because it is covered by a shawl, and inspecting or getting any closer would be akin to suicide,"

"So you want me to do it? You lazy mother fucker…." I muttered before rolling my eyes and calling over my succubus maid, who was at the ready.

"Please be careful," He says, but I just let out a deep sigh.

This is so obviously a trap if you're going off what the frost drake kingdom had said during the meeting.

But it could also be one of these reverse psychology tricks, so I guess I do have to be a bit careful with this mission.

"Alright, let's go," I nod at the assassin, who just nods back.

In a split second, we were in an icy forest where the chilly air brushed against our skin, and it felt like small needles continuously poked us.

My maid was struggling a bit from the strange weather but kept her composure as we unfurled our wings and flew high into the sky.

None of them should be able to notice me due to my flying skills, but the succubus could be easily revealed, so I had her stay a bit farther away.

After a few long minutes of waiting, a large caravan with two hundred frost drake guards were walking in our direction.

I eyed them carefully and also paid attention to one of the carts, which exuded a dark and icy aura.

"This is a bit funny," I muttered before conjuring thousands of magical spears made from pitch black fire and bright red fire.

They seemingly burned the air around them as they continued to burn brighter and brighter.

I was allowed to make this attack because even if they did notice, they would have to protect the caravan and the stuff inside… though I knew this was bait for something else.

FWOOSH FWOOSH FWOOSH

My spears of fire rained down on the caravan, destroying the nature and guards within the blast zone.

It was a hellish sight as guards struggled for survival, and the dark and icy thing within one of the carts had disintegrated into nothing.

"Huh? That's it?"

'No, that was it. Ugh, we might've done something we shouldn't have, and that revealed our cards. This was probably the work of the queen… She most likely wanted to test our power,' My inner demon said before clicking her tongue.

"Or, could they be stalling for time?"

'That is also a possibility, but I doubt they could hide the activation of the Ancient Frost. It's a powerful thing and shakes the plane entirely once wielded, so we would be well aware if it happened,'

But, as if the spirits hated our very existence, those exact words came to life.

BOOM BOOM BOOM

Mountains and trees seemed to shift in anger as the air felt heavy and the fake clouds above slightly waned, revealing the plane above us.

"Heh… I guess they were stalling for time," I muttered, but I had no smug face as I quickly made my way back to the demon camp via my own assassin car thing.

The large rumbling of the plane continued for about an hour, and after the hour had passed, a massive system panel appeared before us.

[Ancient Frost has chosen its host]
