Not having the time to ask for more clarity, Otto left the lizardman named Longleg behind and hurriedly flew towards the lizardman territory.

He couldn’t help but wonder why Sofia had gone to the lizardman clan’s territory and what kind of trouble she had encountered, as the lizardman had mentioned seeking refuge.

Unable to figure it out, Otto sped up and quickly arrived above the lizardman clan’s territory.

It was a small village built on a swamp using wooden materials. Although it was also a swamp, it was much cleaner than the place where the multi-headed serpent lizards dwelled.

A few old and weak lizardmen raised their weapons, cautiously watching the huge creature that suddenly appeared in the sky.

Upon realizing it was Otto, these lizardmen breathed a sigh of relief. Although Saru hadn’t informed all the lizardmen about their submission to Otto, at least they knew that this dragon was not their enemy.

Due to his size, Otto could not enter the lizardman village without destroying their simple dwellings if he forced his way in.

So, he just landed at the entrance of the lizardman village, and soon a lizardman ran over quickly.

“Is Sofia here?”

Seeing Otto’s anxiety, a lizardman with a prominent scar on his chest stepped forward.

This was the only young and strong lizardman among the old and weak present. Due to the scar that ran through his body, everyone called him Scar.

Scar was one of the few lizardmen who knew about the relationship between their clan and Otto.

He respectfully said to Otto, “Princess Sofia is currently resting in the village. Do you need us to inform her for you?”

“No need…”

Otto shook his head because he had already found Sofia. The little girl was riding on her mount, an ogre, rushing towards them.

As familiar as she was with him, Sofia had noticed the commotion early on.

The half-elf little girl constantly urged the clumsy ogre to run faster.

The ogre, with a bitter face, ran as fast as he could, fearing that his face would be scorched by a fireball skill if he was too slow.

Finally, the panting ogre carrying Sofia arrived in front of Otto, sitting on the ground and gasping for breath.

Without any hesitation, Sofia abandoned him and skillfully climbed onto Otto’s neck.

The lizardmen who were old and weak, with the exception of Scar, bowed their heads and dared not look at Otto. They secretly admired the courage of the little Sofia who dared to climb onto the neck of a true dragon.

Sofia angrily hit Otto’s head with her worn-out magic wand, scaring the lizardmen even more as they kept their heads low and dared not say anything.

“You big dragon, where have you been all this time?”

After hitting him for a while, Sofia lay on Otto’s neck and complained while feeling relieved, “You really scared me to death, I thought you had an accident!”

“I’m sorry, I ran into some trouble and had to sleep for a while…”

Otto whispered his apology. Sofia knew that Otto would sometimes fall into a deep sleep due to certain reasons, and although she had already forgiven him in her heart, her tender little face still looked angry.Finally finding Sofia safe and sound, even a little chubbier in the face, Otto was relieved, seeing that she hadn’t suffered here.

However, Otto still had a big question, asking: “How long have I been gone, and what exactly has happened?”

Sofia was still sulking and turned her head away, not wanting to speak. In the end, it was Scar who gave a complete answer.

“Your Majesty, it’s been four days since you went to fight the Rotten Blood Multi-headed Serpent Lizard. Two days ago, the Red Dragon launched a war against the Mother of Thorns with his followers!”

“The Lizardman Clan requested to join the Thorn Legion to fight against the Red Dragon’s army. The scale of this battle is huge. At the request of the Mother of Thorns, the Chief of the Shashalalu had to take away nearly all the warriors in the clan who can fight.”

“To prevent Princess Sofia from being involved in the battle, the chief allowed her to take refuge in the village. Due to a shortage of manpower, including myself, only two adult Lizardmen were left behind. I was responsible for leading the old and weak to guard the clan’s territory.”

“Another Lizardman called Long Legs was responsible for waiting for your appearance every day between the Serpent Lizard Swamp and the Giant Bear Cave. Did you meet him?”

Otto nodded, finally understanding the situation.

Although he knew that Cassiopeia and an adult Red Dragon were at odds and that a war between the two evil dragons would soon break out, he didn’t expect it to happen so quickly.

This seemed to be the reason why he didn’t encounter many living creatures along the way. As the monster army marched, everything edible was naturally wiped clean to be used as military provisions. The few lucky creatures that escaped the calamity would undoubtedly run far away.

Scar hesitated a bit, but eventually said, “Before leaving, the chief told me that if you return, it’s best to go to the south as soon as possible. That is, where Nolan Forest and the Sulfur Mountains meet. The battlefield is there. The Mother of Thorns is furious about your sudden disappearance, and she said she would consider taking back all the territories you have acquired…”

Otto snorted, dismissing the idea, seeing that the battle between Cassiopeia and the Red Dragon didn’t seem to be going smoothly.

However, he still needed to go there in person. No matter what, he had to show up. Otherwise, after this battle was over, Cassiopeia would focus on dealing with him.

He was content with his current situation and didn’t want any major changes in the short term. Moreover, if Cassiopeia was killed by the Red Dragon, it would cause even more trouble.

Among the evil dragons, the Red Dragon had the worst reputation and was the most belligerent. If it took over Cassiopeia’s territory, he didn’t think the Red Dragon would be willing to allow a Metal Dragon that resembled a Silver Dragon to live in its territory.

Otto gently tossed Sofia onto the saddle on the ogre. Despite the half-elf’s protests, he firmly said, “I’m going to visit Shashalalu now. You stay here and behave, don’t run around. Wait for me to come back!”

“No!”

Sofia protested with her head held high, but Otto proved that the protest was invalid. He then looked at the Lizardman next to him.

“What’s your name?”

“I’m Scar, Your Majesty!”

Otto nodded and requested, “Scar, take good care of Sofia for me.”

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

Scar agreed respectfully, and after a fierce wind that made it hard to stand, Otto flew away from the place.

Once again, he didn’t take Sofia with him. Annoyed, Sofia hit the ogre’s head with her magic wand to vent her frustration.

The ogre grinned foolishly, as this little force didn’t bother him. Usually, he just had to wait for Sofia to vent before everything was fine.

Recently, the ogre’s silly brain seemed to be getting smarter, as it could often discern its owner’s mood. Staring blankly at the worn magic wand in Sofia’s hand, and then thinking of the terrifying yet powerful fireball, it wondered if it should also find a stick to try out.
