The dragon's harem

Arad pushed the red dragon back, biting his neck. Blood flew out of the wound directly to Arad's mouth.

The red dragon kicked Arad's chest, jumping back with a roar. His eyes darted around. It isn't strange for dragons to eat each other, but it is strange to seek blood alone.

"You bastard," The red dragon growled, "You're cursed, a vampire dragon." Fire started crackling on his scales, "Is that why your scales turned black? An adaptation to endure the sun?"

The flames started burning in his throat, "And those purple eyes. You

You're a purple dragon."

The red dragon opened his jaw, a fire breath about to burst forth. Arad charged forward, forcing the dragon's maw closed to block the breath.

"I said, no fire in my land." With one claw, he smacked his head to the ground. Enraged, Arad kept smacking the dragon's head on the ground, each time recasting his blood magic.

[Blood magic: Faint spell] [Blood magic: Faint spell] [Blood magic: Faint spell] [Blood magic: Faint spell]

"Stop it!" the red dragon growled, his whole body igniting as he bit Arad's leg, dragging him to the ground.

"No fire!" SMACK! Arad swatted the dragon's side with his tail, careful not to break his ribs.

The red dragon slowly realized his claws and fangs weren't getting through Arad's scales. Something is strange with this purple dragon. He's too hard, and his scales are too clean as if he's still young.

^Something is off,^ He could feel it. Humans might not be able to tell, but dragons can. Like how we can tell someone's vague age by looking at their skin, hearing their voice, or how they walk, dragons could tell when looking at their kind. Everything about him screamed he was young, except his size.

"Burn to ash!" The scales of the red dragon started glowing yellow as orbs of fire formed on his spine. BA-BAM! Hundreds of fireballs exploded from him, flying into the sky.

Arad waved his wings, smacking half of them down, but they restrained in the forest, starting a widespread fire.

A fireball flew toward Arad's house, but a burst of wind swatted it away. "For real," Zephyr sighed, flying, "Hurry and get rid of him," She said, waving her hand, "If you don't, I'm ripping him to shreds first,"

[Airless]

A burst of magic rushed from her and spread across the whole forest, starving the flames for air and putting them out.

Arad looked at Zephyr, and she smiled, "Take him away,"

CRACK! Arad grabbed the dragon by the neck, "You've done it and started a forest fire,"

ZON! The two teleported away, landing in devastated land to the west. This was the same place Gojo fought Demogorgan.

"Teleport magic?" The red dragon growled as Arad smacked him on the ground, "And you can even move me,"

"Stand," Arad growled, his tail rattling like a snake, ready to strike.

"A dragon that could teleport," The red dragon giggled, "Fine, you showed me your trump card. How about I show you mine?" He stood on his hinds, expanding his wings.

The wings heated up until they became red, smoking as the red dragon smiled. "I'm stronger," He growled, [Fire Expansion: Burst of Inferno]

A fiery explosion stared at the red dragon, expanding like a blue flare and consuming the whole area. The flames didn't stop and kept gushing out endlessly as the ground cracked, and lava slowly poured out.

"Everything here will burn to ash! How do you like it? Are you even alive?" The dragon laughed.

"An expansion?" Arad mumbled, "I guess. Adult dragons are strong enough to do it,"

The red dragon gasped, "You're alive?"

"I'm a dragon like you," Arad lifted his front claws, putting them together, "What do you think?"

[Void Expansion: Devouring Void]

Darkness consumed the red dragon's flames, dropping him into the endless abyss of Arad's stomach. His flames faded, and he could feel the air getting sucked out of his lungs.

"In my expansion, air doesn't exist," Arad said, staring at him. "And everyone is put under extremely low pressure. Their bodies start breaking apart, and that's how I digest food."

"For you," Arad smiled, "I will spare you digestion, but I'm not letting you have any breathable air."

The dragon started suffocating, and his blood rushed out of the wounds on his neck from Arad's last bite.

Just like how fire can't burn in the void, the red dragon quickly fell down, dying.

"Doma, if you please."

DING! [Curse of the eternal sleep]

^[As long as you're conscious, he will remain asleep. But if you fall asleep, you die.]^ Doma explained, ^[Of course, I will lift this curse once this idiot is out of your hands so you don't have to worry about the side effects.]^

Thud! Arad stopped his void, staring at the unconscious red dragon. "I wanted to petrify him, but I don't know how will that affect his price."

^[Dragons are magical creatures, and especially idiots like this, they leave a trail of mana after them.]^ Arad looked at the sky, seeing red lines where the red dragon came from.

"I can follow those back to his lair," Arad flew into the sky, teleporting alongside the magic trail until he reached a cave on the peak of a snowy mountain, and inside, he found the dragon's hoard.

Piles of gold, gems, weapons, and skeletons of those he killed.

"Small wealth for an adult dragon," Arad sighed, "I expected more,"

[From how it didn't have any magic besides natural abilities, I say it might have just woken up from evolving a few years ago.] Mom explained, [Not all dragons are as attuned to magic as magic dragons,]

In the blink of an eye, Arad sucked all the treasures into his stomach and teleported away.

He was away for only a few minutes, and the red dragon's body had remained in its place.

"I guess. No one will come close to a place that just got burned," Arad shifted back to his humanoid form and touched the dragon's nose, teleporting with him to Alina.
