No one understood what happened.

They knew that Kyros and Gojirrah were possessed as they could see the Time Core lighting up and emitting energy. There were also the dark powers that appeared earlier.

What many didn't notice was that when Gojirrah rushed in to grab the Time Core, he discreetly handed Kyros the seed of a Pungent Shackling Poison Fruit, which he had taken secretly when he excused himself out. This was the same seed that Calaminus revealed to be a remedy to many poisons if the seed itself would be removed.

With the ability of that seed to disperse poison, Kyros and Gojirrah were immune to the poison of the Nerve Numbing Paralysis bomb and the Force Inhibiting Poison bomb.

Calaminus continued to give an awesome speech to which Kyros and Gojirrah had no choice but to follow the iconic speech of a certain violet and red-haired duo.

Komodo Dragon was trying his best to harness his force energy, but even his nerves were paralyzed.

"The three bombs that Master Alchemist created were used against us! That Poltergeist! What monster did Tail 1 bring into this kingdom?!

" Komodo was so angry that he wanted to kill Tail 1 for bringing in the poltergeist..

"What a fool this boy is!

" Kyros spoke after completing his speech.

"He created a Time Core! This is perfect for a Poltergeist like me! It's a pity that I need to conserve all the energy I have to make this Champion send me back to those humans. You are all lucky that I can't kill any of you! Tail 1 is useless. Go ahead and kill him. But, of course, what he knows may prove to be of value, so you can torture him to find out!

" Calaminus spoke as Kyros mirrored.

"However... this Champion is to my liking. Even among other races, she would be considered beautiful.

"

Gojirrah approached Reptilia.

Reptilia's eyes no longer had the angry and arrogant look but a look of despair.

Kyros moved and grabbed a few herbs and restoring potions.

"I'll be back. And next time, this boy will create alchemy weapons to be used against you! Thank you, Alpha Draconis Kingdom, for showing us what great talent this boy is!

" Kyros and Calaminus laughed.

Gojirrah carried Reptilia and Kyros and began to sprint out of the room as Kyros and Calaminus continued to rant about how evil he was and kept greeting some of the Captains as he made his escape.

"Sorry, Captains... But the humans have long decided to abandon you. Did you really think we would give you that dragon blood? Idiot. We only used it to seduce you! Now that this idiot has it, we'll just turn him into an ally! I bet this alchemist can concoct something useful. And this lizard princess too!

"

"Bye! See you! Good luck with your unrequited love to the Commander! Oh. And you. Tail 1 hated you for hiding information about the Okto-Khefali. So did I. I hope you die.

" Calaminus and Kyros gave their goodbyes as they left the room.

The captains and other people that have important positions were horrified as Kyros gave casual comments. They would be branded as a traitor!

The Commander's eyes were fixed on the one Captain who Kyros greeted with having an unrequited love with him. His anger was exploding out.

The room was silent as no one had the strength to talk. But all were enraged by what had happened. Many of them didn't even know what a poltergeist was.

But they were all scared at such a powerful being that managed to take possession of a Champion!

Many even began to think if Tail 1 was being possessed by this creature!

As the kingdom's finest continued to lay down, paralyzed and without any means to gather the strength to recover. They didn't have the Force or Magic to fight the poison and could only allow it to pass so that they could slowly gather the energy themselves. Kyros and Gojirrah were walking out of the castle without any problems.

There were no guards in the area, and they managed to move out of the guarded palace easily.

The preparations of Gojirrah were not only that, but it was a means to spread the news of another shocking thing that occurred.

The gossips became wild rumors. The worse was how it was revealed that Champion Reptilia was involved in various sexually explicit activities with countless men and was labeled as a THOT.

The scene also followed that Reptilia met her match and could not keep up with the instructions and nearly lost consciousness as she was drained of energy.

Apart from that, the news of the Captains getting flogged and how Champion Gojirrah was someone they should never cross also circulated.

The value of the Grand Master Alchemist also circulated around the kingdom.

Kyros and Gojirrah finally arrived at the populated area outside the main castle.

"It wasn't my fault! I'm telling you! She should have told me that she had no force energy!

" Kyros exclaimed.

"This is your fault, Grand Master Alchemist! While you did offer great services that have driven everyone mad that they are busy discussing the future of this kingdom and shouldn't be disturbed, you still owe me your life! Champion Reptilia is someone that I admire, and if you can't heal her, then I will no longer call you friend!

"

"Fine! Fine! I'll heal her!

" Kyros complained.

Some of the people that Gojirrah ordered were present.

"Champion!

"

"Report your findings later. The castle and all those Champions and Commander is in an important meeting. They are discussing the future of the kingdom and are finding out who the traitors are! It seems that Commander has found an interesting method thanks to Grand Master Alchemist's Truth Serum.

"

The nearby soldiers were surprised when they heard that.

"Anyone who trespasses the castle grounds will be considered a traitor and will be executed on spot. The meeting is crucial as there will be a swift attack. Anyone who is found to be leaving this kingdom will be considered a traitor. Tonight, blood shall flow, and all those who are found to be traitors will be killed.

" Gojirrah warned.

The nearby soldiers nodded.

"Go and inform the others. I will be bringing Lady Champion to her abode.

" Gojirrah answered, and the trio left.

Kyros and Gojirrah kept bickering and talked about more of the details of the plan and how many will die tonight.

"But a lot of innocent will be implicated! Those are your civilians! I don't know how you do it in Lizardkin, but we humans don't implicate the innocent! Most of your people don't even know that they were dealing with those Captains!

"

"Commander is pretty strict. If he wants Alpha Draconi to rise, he must be this cruel!

" Gojirrah answered.

The loud and public discussion made everyone afraid. Everyone began to go back home, and most shops were being quickly abandoned and closed down. Everyone rushed back to their homes and family as they feared it. There were too many captains on that list! The list began of captains that were flogged had already circulated to the lizardfolk, and almost all of the kingdom had dealings with one or two of these Captains!

Kyros and Gojirrah easily arrived at the house of the Reptilia.

Reptilia was doing her best to shout and speak and warn the townsfolk as he realized the lies and ploys that the poltergeist was making them do. But she was too weak and couldn't even move her lips.

Even as her slaves and attendants saw the state of their master, they could only make way and prepare her room and give Gojirrah and Kyros privacy as they made their way out. They naturally knew of the happenings in the castle as the maids that saw and heard everything that transpired there had left early at Gojirrah's orders.

And so, while the scene of Gojirrah angrily forcing Kyros to heal her seemed a bit out-of-character, the maids who had just left managed to connect the dots from Kyros and Gojirrah's orders.

When they heard of the plans that were about to happen, the maids were horrified, and many asked if they could go back home to their families.

Gojirrah allowed the maids to leave, and the very few ones remaining were assigned to guard the door.

Reptilia was horrified as she could see her maids leave but have no power to do anything about it.

"My Lord. How much time do we have?

" Gojirrah finally asked as they were alone.

"We have some thirty minutes remaining. Don't underestimate the bombs I made. And the poison itself was powerful, and my darkness was added into that mix. It should give us enough time to escape. Now, let's turn Reptilia into your ghoul. Unlike my Coven, both parties have to be willing to become part of it. But as for you, it's a forceful curse. You bite her and inflict your vampiric poison and force her to drink your blood.

" Kyros explained.

"Understood. How can we get out?

"

"Feed her the seed of the Pungent Shackling Poison Fruit after you turn her into your Dhampir. And then, we give her force-restoring and health-restoring potions to move out.

Reptilia was shocked at what she heard. The two began to talk, and she could see that this wasn't the work of a Poltergeist!

Her body was too weak. She was drained of all force, and she was actually in a critical state. If left alone, those poisons could kill her!

Gojirrah swiftly followed Kyros's orders, and Reptilia felt the curse of the vampire coursing through her veins. As she drank the blood of Gojirrah, her body reacted, and a bond was created in her soul. She would have had the strength to resist it and forcibly attack this curse with her Force. But she was drained. She realized that she was tricked! The Grand Master Alchemist intentionally made her angry to make her weak.

The bonds and constraints that Gojirrah set were much harsher than the Coven's curse, and she could not even make a scene to warn the kingdom.

"Master....

" She stood up as she regained the strength to move and bowed towards Kyros.

Gojirrah was too shy and made it that Kyros would be her master instead of him.

"Good to have you onboard, Reptilia. Do you like your name? Or do you want me to change it?

" Kyros asked.

Reptilia was surprised at the offer.

"Ah, we'll settle that later. The both of you! Use your influence and prepare to send us out of here. Prepare a carriage and get weapons and armor from the armory as we leave this place. Reptilia. You are to leave something that these lizards can use to track your exact location. Something like a life compass. Do you have any?

"

"Yes, Master.

"

"Good! Leave a message on the life compass. I'll tell you when to drop it. Say something like save me and that whoever can save you, you will marry. Your letter must be short, but it must be believable to them that you wrote it. That way, it'll make the guys mad, and even that Commander will work hard to save you.

" Kyros smiled.

Reptilia was turning red, but she could not refuse her lord's order.

And so, the trio moved out to perform their last tricks to leave the kingdom safely.
