My Little Pony: Changelings

Chapter 277 The Storm Emperor (13)

"I don't understand, why are you helping me?"

"My teacher once told me that every living thing deserves to be saved, and so do you."

"But... I have made many mistakes in the past... I have aided and abetted the evil, and helped the Storm King to occupy one place after another."

"But you still have a chance to turn over a new leaf. It's not too late now, is it?"

Fierce turned around and looked at Twilight Sparkle's outstretched hoof. The midday sun was reflected on the windowsill behind her, and the golden morning light sprinkled on Twilight Sparkle's body. Fierce stretched out his hand tremblingly and placed it on Twilight Sparkle's hoof.

"You are a natural leader, and I am willing to submit to you wholeheartedly."

"No no no."

Hearing this, Twilight Sparkle quickly retracted her hooves, then swung her front hooves back and forth, expressing her refusal to the dispute, and spoke hurriedly.

"I'm not asking you to submit to me, but to treat me as a friend, just like an ordinary friend."

After hearing this, Strife was stunned for a moment, then he smiled knowingly. He had never had any friends before. Before this, the only creature he considered a friend hurt him deeply, so he chose to betray him. But now, a pony who only met him once can become his friend, maybe... not bad~

"Well, as a friend, what do you want to know? What are your plans?"

"Of course, the most important thing now is that I want to know what the Storm Emperor is doing now?"

After hearing what Dissension said, Twilight Sparkle walked aside, stood up the map on the table, and asked Dissension. Dissension touched his chin with his paw, thought for a while, and then said to Twilight Sparkle.

"It all started after we left Abyssinia. When the Storm King told me that he didn't need friends, I had already given up my last trust in him. So I followed my previous plan, transferred the guards, and let other pirate ships rob the Storm King.

Before this, the Storm King had been chatting with a pony in the house. I overheard a few words and it seemed that they were going to build some war machine to destroy everything.

And from what I've observed, there have been constant frictions among the countries in the entire southern region recently, but what they all have in common is the appearance of Storm Soldiers. I suspect this was done by the Storm King and his men."

"What? Why would they do that?"

When Twilight Sparkle heard this, she felt incredible. Then, without saying anything, she pointed at the building not far away, then spoke to Twilight Sparkle with her claws inserted.

"I heard from several soldiers who are still serving in the Storm Legion that they were doing all this for this purpose."

“That building…”

Onisia, Adachi and the others took a shortcut and successfully arrived there, and then they saw a scene that stunned them: a messy city and birds in chaos.

"What it is?"

"A giant hippogriff? What does he eat?"

In Onisia, the gigantic General Tide was destroying the city crazily. It turned out that not long ago, when the Eagle Guard was about to move the petrified body of General Tide to the cell, he was suddenly knocked unconscious by the hidden Storm Soldiers.

Then the Storm Troopers waited until Onisia's army left, and then sprinkled some magic powder on the petrified statue of General Chaolang. As the magic powder seeped into the statue, the statue of General Chaolang also changed.

Seeing the destruction wreaked by General Tide, the Sirens were clearly at a loss as to what to do. Should they make matters worse or help? Before they could make a decision, General Tide, who had run out of magic, shrank in size in an instant and then fainted on the ground.

Seeing that the disaster was finally over, the birds walked out of their shelters and gathered around General Tide.

"He's not moving, is he?"

"should be."

"Damn Hippogriffs! They destroyed our homeland!"

"Revenge, we want revenge!"

The eyes of the birds were filled with hatred, and they seemed to want to cut General Tide into pieces, but then, with a swish, Adachi and the others grabbed General Tide and rushed out.

When the birds saw this, they all clamored to follow, but they had no choice but to do so because Adachi and the others jumped into the water. So the birds lingered by the water for a while before scattering back to Onisia.

"Who is this guy?"

"I don't know, but he caused so much damage throughout Onisia. Where did his magic come from?"

"Iris, Sonata, you two should send this guy back to Mount Aris first. I will observe in Onisia and see what they do next."

After Adachi gave the order, he quietly slipped back to Onisia along the current. Sonata and Iris looked at each other and could only helplessly bring General Tide back in their hooves.

Inside the Great Hall of Onisia, in a half-collapsed building, countless birds were chirping and making a lot of noise. An owl holding a hammer knocked on the table and spoke to the other birds.

"Silence, everyone be quiet."

"The Hippogriffs must give us an explanation!"

"That's right, there are no birds living in our country now!"

"And our king and queen, they are now turned to stone, we need revenge!"

"Prince Ero and Princess Ossibito have gone to the Hippogriffs to seek an explanation, but it is clear that this is not enough. We need a better one..."

As they were talking, Prince Ero's wife, Zefira, suddenly rushed in and spoke to the birds in the open-air hall.

"I found this in my room."

As soon as she finished speaking, the birds in the hall saw the guards pushing a statue of a hippogriff towards them, and a graceful and elegant hippogriff was displayed in front of them.

"This is..."

"Queen Novo! The Queen of the Hippogriffs? Why is she here? And turned to stone?"

The owl adjusted his glasses and muttered to himself in disbelief. At this moment, Adachi, who was hiding among the birds, was also surprised when she saw Queen Novo.

Without caring about exposing her identity, Adachi suddenly rushed over while the other birds were talking, knocked away the guards surrounding Zefira, and pressed her neck with her hoof.

"Maniac! Release our princess!"

When the surrounding birds saw this, they all roared in anger. Adachi hugged Zefira, pressed down the statue of Queen Novo, and then spoke to the surrounding birds.

"I need to leave here safely now and take this statue with me, but I will ensure that your princess will not lose a single feather."

"I hope so, Siren!"
