A suddenly stressed and furious Red Hatchling Dragon was often far more dangerous than a ravenous Northeast Tiger.
It could even be said that this desperate Red Dragon, trying to break out, was no less formidable than David had been when he was paralyzed by drugs and covered in wounds.
Moreover, to prevent the High Elf prisoners of war from having a chance to rebel during the dragon-hunting mission, David hadn't equipped them with any lethal weapons.
What they had were only a few wooden arrows coated with paralyzing agents, provided mainly to about a dozen Elves who, led by Yevgeny, had shown clearer signs of capitulation.
The others were either holding hempen nets or the dragon-hunting iron chains that David and his sister had broken.
These Elves, who bullied the weak and feared the strong, had valued their own lives greatly when they first faced David. Now, stripped of their weapons, they hardly dared to directly confront such a reckless and tenacious creature.
