My Dragon System

Chapter 438: The kingdoms meet
Both Harry and Kyle had gone from tavern to tavern searching for the girls, seeing if they could find out any information, but they have had no such luck so far. Their search led them onto the streets. They looked everywhere and Kyle had even drawn pictures of the two.

"Excuse me, have you seen these two, one of them is a blond with a scrunched up face. Her eyebrows sometimes look like they are touching each other." Kyle asked, but there were no answers.

It was a large city and them just going around wasn't going to work.

The two didn't know what to do, and that's when they decided to stop by at another tavern, and got a few drinks, as they let their minds refocus on what was the next step.

"Let's think of this more logically," Harry said. "What could have been so important to Sylvia that she had to go off in the first place?"

"Well, she is a busybody," Kyle replied. "If she isn't replying to the messages, my guess is she got in the empire's business and they caught somewhere for snooping."

Harry looked a bit down hearing that, because although Kyle was speaking about it freely as if it was just a random guess. It was most likely true. While the two were trying to think like Slyvia and what she would have possibly done a message was received.

It was from Ray, asking for an update, they told him the truth and said there was no news yet, but tried to spin it in a positive light. No news was also good news. At least they hadn't found her body somewhere and their names were still showing up under the red wing army, so they had to be alive.

The screens in the inn started to play the big event once again. The one that had been showing for the last few days. The arena fights that were going on.

"Oh man, the missing girls are really affecting him," Kyle said, watching Ray perform poorly in his fights so far.

"He never used to be like this," Harry said. "Before, he wouldn't let his mind affect him so easily. I'm afraid if we don't find these girls, then he won't fare well in the all kingdom tournament."

"Did you say the all kingdom tournament?" A female voice that was sitting at the bar said. She had short brown hair and two daggers around her waist, by her side a family large fat man, who wielded an axe.

That's when the two of them noticed something. There were an odd amount of adventures in this inn at the moment. Their minds too were unfocused for them to not notice such a thing.

Harry looked around and noticed that many of them carried the different crests of different kingdoms.

'I guess it's about that time right.' Harry thought. 'For the other participants of the all kingdom tournament to start arriving in the city. It looks like they all decided to meet up beforehand and our kingdom didn't get the memo.'

In total, there were six different kingdoms, seven if one was to include the Redwing kingdom, then each kingdom was allowed two participants each. It looked like all of the participants were in the inn. The contestants were also allowed to bring guards, and most likely they had some with them.

However, these were meant to be the strongest fighters in their kingdom. If someone couldn't even take care of their guards, what was the use of fighting against them?

"So my guess is that you two are from the Redwing kingdom and that's one of your fighters?" The female said with a smile. "Well looks like the rumors were greatly exaggerated about your strength. I can't believe our leaders were scared of you. I hope the other person is better, otherwise, you guys will be the first ones to be knocked out."

Kyle calmly drank his drink in one go and stood up from his seat as he walked over towards the girl. He stopped and looked at her for a few seconds.

"Would you care to drink with me, my room isn't far from here?" Kyle suggested holding out his hand.

The girl started to laugh hysterically.

"Is there something wrong with your head? Do you know how many men wish to court me every day, and you think some bald-headed freak like you is able to win me over. I only go out with those that are stronger than me." The girl said.

Next on the screen, Roki was the one to go, and they all saw his beautiful swordsmanship. He hadn't taken a hit and killed the beast perfectly. The look on the other contestants' faces were now more serious than before.

"That's one of the Empire's men." One said.

"Yes, he is very skillful and will be tough to beat, I also doubt the empire will allow their best men to just show off their skills like so. They must have someone better hiding behind the scenes as well." Another kingdom member replied.

"Please," Kyle said. "Harry could do the same sort of swordplay when he was fifteen. If you are impressed by that, you all are really fools."

All of the fighters there were warriors. Warriors with pride and they didn't like to be mocked. They also appreciated skilled fighters when they saw one. They could tell Roki had skill, while the other person before him seemed to be getting through everything by pure luck.

Because of this, the man standing by the female's side by the bar stood up and went to walk towards Kyle. However, the next second Kyle was no longer in front of him and had disappeared, he too was now by the counter and had placed a small pouch on the table.

Bypassing the large man before his very eyes.

Looking at this, Harry started to grab around his waist.

'When did he?' He knew Kyle had no money. The pouch that was on the table was his.

"If you think this man is so skillful, why don't we make a bet. Him against ours to see who can clear the king tier beast quicker?" Kyle asked.
