Chapter 45 - Chapter 45 Pegasus vs. the True Dragon

Bang!"

The ground trembled violently, and the flying yellow dust almost obscured Viserys Targaryen's vision!

Viserys Targaryen retreated repeatedly, cold sweat pouring down.

Before him, the steel longsword, a symbol of death, shattered into pieces, instantly crumbling into dust!

Khal Drogo's pupils constricted as he watched the giant beast, Sunfyre, approaching.

He ignored his numb arms and leaped back.

The next moment, a huge claw print appeared where he had been standing!

"It's Sunfyre!"

Viserys Targaryen let out a long breath.

If not for the protection of the dragon Sunfyre just now, that one blow would have been enough to take his life!

This was the world of Game of Thrones; there were no protagonists, no legends.

Unless a miracle descended, no matter who it was, they only had one chance to squander their life!

Even dragons had moments of bleeding and regret, let alone Viserys Targaryen, an ordinary mortal of flesh and blood!

He had thought he was cautious enough, but he never expected that at the moment he believed the battle was over, he would still be caught off guard by the enemy.

He had, after all, been careless!

Viserys Targaryen's pupils constricted further, and he was furious, seeing the familiar armor on Khal Drogo.

"Where did you get that armor?"

Viserys Targaryen demanded coldly.

"Him? Just a nobody!"

Hearing this, Khal Drogo sneered disdainfully.

As a strong warrior from the Dothraki, he didn't care about the names of those he had defeated.

Even the Kingsguard held no significance in his eyes.

Facing the giant beast Sunfyre, Khal Drogo still calmly drew his Dothraki arakh from his waist.

"Thump, thump!"

Seeing the ambush fail, Khal Drogo calmly removed his armor in front of Viserys Targaryen and then kicked it away.

His arrogant demeanor showed that he had no regard for Viserys Targaryen or the dragon beside him.

Clearly, he had already deemed Viserys Targaryen his prey!

"You are truly confident!"

Viserys Targaryen sneered.

With the dragon Sunfyre's protection, Khal Drogo, whose assassination had failed, still had the courage to openly challenge Viserys Targaryen.

This was the ultimate blasphemy against Viserys Targaryen, the Dragon King!

"Only the weak need the protection of armor; horsemen are not afraid of death!"

Khal Drogo said coldly.

As a warrior who had spent many years on horseback, the Dothraki arakh was clearly his most effective weapon.

Although he hadn't successfully broken through Sunfyre's defenses with a single sword strike, he hadn't been discouraged!

"I accept your challenge!"

Viserys Targaryen said in a deep voice.

This was Viserys Targaryen's lifelong enemy.

In the original story, Khal Drogo, without a single soldier, both tricked away his queen and took his life.

By all accounts, he owed his original self an explanation.

Before his words faded, Viserys Targaryen turned and began to climb onto the dragon's back.

Facing the enemy's provocation, he would not be foolish enough to personally compete with Khal Drogo in strength!

However, the next moment, Viserys Targaryen's face changed dramatically.

"Clang!"

A gleaming dagger was blocked by Sunfyre's wing, and in an instant, sparks flew, falling in front of Viserys Targaryen.

Facing the attack, Sunfyre let out a mighty roar, looking down at the audacious villain who dared to try and kill his companion.

However, before Viserys Targaryen and Sunfyre could recover, Khal Drogo's figure behind them had already vanished.

"Did he escape?"

Viserys Targaryen frowned, looking around in surprise.

Although dragons were incredibly powerful, as someone who had lived two lives, he absolutely did not believe Khal Drogo would flee in battle!

The next moment, cold sweat poured down him.

Khal Drogo had actually bypassed Viserys Targaryen and nimbly climbed onto Sunfyre's dragon spine from the side!

"He wants to blind Sunfyre's eyes!"

Viserys Targaryen's eyes widened in disbelief.

Although dragons were incredibly powerful in the eyes of the world, in Viserys Targaryen's view, it was not truly invulnerable.

At least Viserys Targaryen knew many of the dragon's weaknesses!

The larger a dragon's body, the more clumsy its movements, and its eyes and wings were particularly vulnerable points.

Dragons were not gods; they were creatures made of flesh and blood.

Once an enemy was given a chance for close-quarters combat, the dragon lost the advantage of Dragonflame.

Even many ants can bite an elephant to death!

This was also why dragons were wary of any creature approaching them.

Except for humans with Targaryen Family blood, almost all creatures that approached would be indiscriminately killed by dragons!

"He's climbed up!"

Viserys Targaryen's face was ashen.

He hadn't expected Khal Drogo's combat experience to be so rich.

It could be said that from the very beginning, he had prepared for a failed assassination.

As a Khal of a tribe, Drogo was not only at the peak of martial prowess but also the culmination of thousands of years of combat experience and wisdom of the horsemen.

"It's too late!"

Viserys Targaryen was so scared that cold sweat poured down him.

Wearing heavy armor, he did not possess Khal Drogo's agility.

Even if he managed to get onto the dragon saddle, Viserys Targaryen would not be a match for Khal Drogo.

The next moment, Viserys Targaryen hardened his heart and jumped straight down to the ground, ignoring everything else.

"Take off, Sunfyre!"

At the same time, Viserys Targaryen roared.

Hearing Viserys Targaryen's command, Sunfyre didn't hesitate.

It spread its wings and, like a bipedal lizard, ran furiously across the battlefield.

Whoosh—

The next moment, accompanied by a hurricane generated by its running start, Sunfyre finally spread its wings and soared into the sky.

Facing the sudden violent shaking, even Khal Drogo had to bite his Dothraki arakh in his mouth, his hands clutching desperately at the dragon's scales.

At this moment, Viserys Targaryen had fallen to the ground.

He looked up at Sunfyre and Khal Drogo, who had just taken flight high in the sky, a cold sneer on his face.

This was a dragon!

Aside from the Targaryen Family, Viserys Targaryen believed that no one could defy a dragon's will and forcibly ride on its back!

Clearly, Sunfyre had also discovered the unwelcome guest on its back.

How could a true dragon long remain subservient to a man?

The next moment, countless difficult maneuvers unfolded in the air: flips, sprints, handstands, dives... Sunfyre even plunged directly into the icy seawater at one point!

However, no matter how much it thrashed, Khal Drogo remained stuck to Sunfyre's back like a persistent plaster.

At this point, even the confident Viserys Targaryen couldn't help but worry about Sunfyre's safety.

That was the only dragon he could ride, his lifelong companion!
