Hail the King Chapter 600: The Effort of a Dog

“Huh? What is going on? This aura…… It is not Blacky…… Could it……” Fei’s face changed color.
It was heard that all types of mysterious demon beasts resided in the back mountains of Chambord, including high-level and even supreme king-level demon beasts. Those creatures had a strong sense of territories, and they would attack anything that entered their zones mercilessly……
“Could it be that Blacky got attacked by a powerful demon beast on its way here?”
As Fei was about to make a move, the special aura at the foot of the mountains changed again.
The strength of the aura increased rapidly and continuously.
The speed of the elevation was similar to cultivators’ after they broke through a threshold; it was fast like a rocket.
To Fei, this aura was getting more and more familiar. Gradually, a surprised and a confused expression appeared on the king’s face.
“Huh? Blacky? It achieved a breakthrough and underwent another mutation?”
……
There was an unlimited number of mountains behind Chambord, and they were of various sizes and steepness.
Like a dash of black lightning, Blacky was dashing between them.
Its four strong legs were as tough as iron. As it exerted forces through them, the hard rocks under its paws were crushed, and its body was jetted into the air as if the gravity was canceled.
Every time it jumped into the air, it would move over more than 100 meters, and most of the steep hills, deep valleys, giant rocks, and ancient trees were dodged by it.
Blacky hadn’t enjoyed running around this freely in a long time; it felt like it was a gust of strong wind, blowing through the woods and the mountains.
The beginning of Blacky’s vague memory started in these deserted mountains. It lost its parents right after it was born, and it had no abilities to survive on its own. It was cold and hungry all the time.
Just as it was about to die, Angela, the future queen of Chambord, came up the mountains and tried to find herbs for King Alexander, and they encountered each other.
It was this beautiful and kind girl who saved Blacky. Even though Blacky wasn’t cute and wasn’t a rare breed, this pure girl still saved it and brought it back to the King’s Palace of Chambord. From that moment on, it no longer needed to worry about getting fed.
During that period of time, Blacky was no different to other ordinary dogs; it lived a simple, dumb, yet happy life.
Until one day, its male master, Alexander, suddenly became another person. He fed it a mysterious green potion, and it fell unconscious. After a while of terrifying pain and half a month of sleep, it was reborn.
From that moment on, Blacky started to have intelligence, a level of intelligence that wasn’t inferior to humans.
Although it wasn’t capable of speaking, it was getting smarter and smarter by the day. It began able to understand the human language, and it comprehended a lot of things that it wasn’t capable of before.
As time passed by, its strength got stronger and stronger due to the mutation, and it started to like its male master just as much as it liked its female master. It carried its male master to battle and charged through tens of thousands of enemies. After getting affected by its male master’s domineering aura, it started to enjoy its life where it was potentially able to shatter mountains and scare gods with its roars alone.
Then, after it took in three dragons as its henchmen, Blacky’s biggest wish was to obtain a pair of wings that would allow it to fly freely in the sky, just like the dragons!
The dog wanted a pair of wings? It was beyond impossible!
However, Blacky didn’t give up; it felt like it could do it!
Under the nurturing of its somewhat-creative male master, even Blacky itself didn’t know how it was going to evolve. The bulges on its back were getting hotter every day, and it felt like a pair of bones was growing out of its spine. It was able to sense what was going on inside its body clearly.
At this moment, Blacky looked up at the sky.
It saw Thug, Chick, Hooligan, and its male master, who was like a god in its mind, flying freely in the sky
Blacky exerted force through its four legs and created huge cracks on the ground, and it started to leap forward crazily.
The surroundings passed by him rapidly like phantoms, and every time it leaped into the air and extended its legs, it would experience a brief moment of excitement as it felt like it was flying.
Streaks of hot energy dashed around its body unstoppably.
As it stared at the figures in the sky, Blacky had never wanted to fly this bad.
Finally, a huge valley that was more than 400 meters wide appeared before it; it was a distance that Blacky couldn’t jump over.
Even though that was the case, Blacky didn’t hesitate for one bit.
Instead of slowing down, it sped up even more. As it roared, exerted force through its legs, and shattered the rocks under its paws, its body shot into the sky like an eagle.
The wind blew by its body.
Its upward momentum and the gravity were two forces in different directions, and they battled with each other. In the end, gravity took the upper hand, and Blacky started to fall into the valley. If its body smashed into the deep valley, its bones would be cracked into bits, and it would die instantly.
At this moment, it wasn’t anxious at all for some reason.
Instead, it felt a wave of anger that was hard to suppress.
It opened its mouth and howled with all it got.
“Bark… Bark…… Roar! Roar! Roar! Roar!!!”
The barking of a dog turned into the roaring of an unknown beast. It was the first time that Blacky let out this type of sound that contained a ton of pressure, and a thick smell of sulfur appeared around it. When it opened its mouth again, orange flames were spat out!
At that moment, the streaks of hot energy shot through its body like electricity and swept through all the bones in its body. Like a volcano that finally erupted after many years of accumulation, the energy rushed toward the two bulges on its back that had been there for about half a year now.
Blacky sensed an intense pain as if its heart was pierced through, and it felt like something finally broke through the ‘cocoon’.
Then, Blacky completely broke free from the gravity that had been pulling it down for all its life, and it flew upward into the sky!
A huge pair of wings extended out of the bulges on its back.
This pair of wings was black, shiny, and full of scales. The wing bones were distinct, and their tips were sharp like black swords that had been forged for hundreds of times. The wingspan was longer than 30 meters.
In addition, the wings had a metal glare to them; they looked like rows and layers of black swords stacked together. There were streaks of innate magic pathings on them; when Blacky fluttered its wings, cyan wind-elemental energy blades would appear under the wings, creating an enormous amount of thrust force and lifting its mountain-like body into the air.
As Blacky turned its head and spat out a dash of orange flame at a huge piece of rock, that rock turned into lava and flowed into the river in the valley.
Whoosh!
Then, it fluttered its wings, and its body dashed into the sky.
Freedom! Flight!
……
As soon as Fei landed with everyone, he looked up and saw a huge black mystic beast flying toward him.
“It is Blacky! It looks like it finally broke through the limitation of its genetics! It has a pair of wings and could spit fire; it looks like a dragon! Haha, it went from an ordinary dog to this. This could be counted as ‘a carp jumping over the dragon gate!’ After taking this step, its future is now truly limitless!”
Fei could clearly tell that Blacky’s strength was now equivalent to a peak Nine-Star Warrior. He was confident that this beast would break through again and march into Moon-Class very soon; it would become a supreme king-level demon beast in no time!
“Hehe, my dog looks like a dragon, but my three little dragons stick out their tongues and wriggle their tails like dogs. Damn, I must be a failure of a master!” Fei thought to himself joyously as he heard the howls of the three dragons as well as Blacky as they flew freely in the sky.
Once these four beasts matured, the amount of shock they could bring to the enemies would be more than tens of thousands of elite soldiers.
They would become the godly guardian beasts of the kingdom, and all the enemies of Chambord would get a taste of their fangs.
