Chapter 81 The Silver Haired Cat Girl

Random Slave Girl's POVFive massive black thorns converged into a single towering pillar that reached toward the heavens.

Each thorn was covered in shimmering dark scales and their surfaces glowed faintly with an eerie light.

Wait a moment!! It's not a pillar but a claw??

My breath hitched as this realization dawned on me. The five thorns were not thorns at all but they were fingers. They were part of a massive draconic hand that gripped the castle in a vice-like hold.

ROAR!

The roar that followed was deafening and a sound so primal it seemed to shake the very foundations of the earth. I craned my neck upward and saw the scene I would never forget for the rest of my life.

Two glowing yellow lanterns stared back at me. The golden eyes with slit pupils shone like the sun and were filled with ancient and otherworldly fury.

It was a dragon and it was unlike anything I had ever imagined. Its sheer size was incomprehensible, and its presence indescribable.

The claw suddenly tightened, and the castle crumbled like a fragile sandcastle underfoot. The cacophony of destruction drowned out the screams and pleas of the evil family.

For the first time in years, I felt a flicker of satisfaction. The fire of my hatred began to dim, quenched by the sight of their destruction.

I turned my gaze upward again, and for a brief moment, I felt as if the glowing eyes had glanced at me. A shiver ran down my spine filled with an unknown excitement and fear but an urge and eagerness to know that figure also erupted inside me.

The dark dragon's claw unclenched and the five thorns vanished into the void.

Before I could process what had just happened, a purple light began to glow in the sky. It grew rapidly and formed a pulsating energy sphere beneath the dragon's glowing golden eyes. Stay tuned to My Virtual Library Empire

I knelt instinctively, totally overwhelmed by the sight. Tears streamed down my face as I whispered, "Is this the will of the gods?"

But deep down, I knew that this was not a divine act but vengeance and a reckoning for the sins of that evil family. And I had been a witness to its power.

The pulsating sphere brightened, and it seemed as if a purple sun had arisen in the underground world. All the winding mountains, twisted and mutated trees, deep caves, and the giant city in the far became visible and bright under its rays.

A countdown-like sound boomed, and at last, the purple sphere burst open and a dark purple fire breath rained over the ruined castle. In the glowing purple fire, the huge dragon head, the size of a mountain became visible to us and the grandiose scene stole my breath away.

It had five dragon horns growing sleekly on its head that formed a natural crown. A regal pressure emanated from its golden eyes which were filled with wrath currently. The purple dragon fire spread like a prairie and burned everything down in its path.

Huge explosions sounded and the rocks and debris of the ruined castle melted into a pool of lava. The whole area changed into a volcanic region and the soil melted into sand crystals.

The cages carrying us had already landed on a nearby barren hill, and this time the dark flames burned the magic metal cages into ash, leaving us free.

The little girls cheered and wept uncontrollably at the sight of the fiery purple ocean that had devoured the evil and reduced their malevolent existences to ashes.

But I could only gaze at the fiery ocean in wonder. I suddenly remembered something and looked up into the sky, but our savior the god-like dark dragon had vanished as if all of it had been an illusion.

"Come, all of you gather together in a group," a loud but powerful shout of a woman sounded and in the next instant, a tall, back-flowing shadow appeared before us.

From its shape, I could tell that it was a woman that was obvious by her curvy figure and flowing shadowy long hair.

With the power and aura radiating from her, I and all the other girls who were already used to following orders gathered together meekly and feared if they would face something like that again.

A small girl aged around five or six even began crying loudly. From the short black horns on her head, I could tell that she was of demonic origin.

I, being one of the oldest in the group moved forward and hugged her to calm her agitated emotions of fear and anxiousness.

I felt sad that a little girl had to experience this but I had been in this same state and no one had been there to console me at that time.

"Don't worry, you have all been freed from slavery and capture. But I cannot keep you all for free. For now, you will have to live in my castle with me and your fates will be decided later."

The cold voice spoke with no emotion behind it but we still felt relief and I knew that I was finally one step closer to my freedom.

I suddenly felt an immense danger and felt someone touch my hair. I flinched and jumped high in the air. When I landed I was already in a crouching position instinctively.

All the hair on my body stood on end, and my hair started floating on its own. I finally noticed it as it was raised like they were alive.

Exclamations sounded from beside me and I knew my secret had been revealed but none of it occupied most of my mind as I bared my teeth and crouched on the ground.

Small sharp claws sprouted from my nails, but I paid no heed to any of it and stared at the threat that threatened to consume my soul.

Before me stood a six-foot-tall beautiful woman in sinister, spiky black armor. She had dragon horns and soft golden eyes that were looking at me with a curious expression.
