“That’s…a magic symbol made up of all the elements in the world. I’ve never seen that tree-shaped symbol before. Is it a brand new element?”
The Light Dragon King looked up at the eight magic symbols above his head. His gaze fell on the eighth magic symbol, and he looked surprised.
With the Dragon King’s experience, he could see what the magic symbols in the sky represented. After the magical symbols that symbolized life appeared, the source of the life element also appeared in the sky. Just by looking at that, the Dragon Kings could feel the enormous energy contained within it.
“No wonder Nidhogg is so much stronger than us, despite being a Dragon King. He is a dragon who has lived for tens of thousands of years, and he has the ability to use the life element, which is different from other elements in the world.”
Fafnir could not help but sigh.
“No, I do not control the life element. I only had the water from the Spring of Life in my body. The source of the life element only appeared after my life form evolved. In other words, Watson helped me achieve that! I am very clear about how many things I had because those were important rights and interests that I needed. Now that my rights and interests have become, even more, I have to thank you for that.”
After the evolution, Nidhogg’s eyes sparkled as he looked at Watson.
Watson replied modestly, “Nidhogg, you’re too kind. I did not do anything. It’s all thanks to you that I was able to create an element that the world doesn’t have.”
As he spoke, he sighed in relief. He was terrified that after Nidhogg obtained the life element’s source, he would say that it did not belong to him, his rights and interests had been violated, and then attacked him. Fortunately, even though Nidhogg’s brain circuits were not quite normal, he still knew how to be grateful after obtaining the benefits.
As Watson was thinking about that, the eight elemental symbols in the sky, along with the life element’s source, were dissipating. Even though the source was dissipating, everyone knew that it was only concealing its figure. It still existed in a certain part of the world, and because of the appearance of the life element, the world became more vigorous and stronger than before.
“I knew that Nidhogg was stronger than us. Once he received Watson’s gift, he would become even stronger. I did not expect him to become so strong and create an element that did not belong in the world. When can we achieve that? Just that alone can prove that the dragon that Nidhogg transformed into is a higher tier than us.”
“I remember a similar situation happened in the past. A few months ago, a seventh element that did not belong to the original six elements appeared in the world. At that time, I only saw it from afar in other kingdoms and did not know what that element was. Two new elements appeared in the world in a short period. It seems like the world is undergoing changes that we cannot predict.”
“I saw the symbol of the seventh element just now. Do you guys feel like the symbol looks very similar to the Dragon Emperor’s aura?”
As the Dragon Kings discussed, some of them could not help but look at Watson. When they saw the chaos dragon Watson had transformed into, they felt like it was a dragon they had never seen before. However, at that moment, after witnessing the other elements of the world that appeared because of the life element created by Nidhogg, they realized that the seventh magical element was not very similar to what Watson had displayed; it was exactly the same.
The Dark Dragon King, who had just fought with Watson, also felt the same way about that element.
“Dragon Emperor, you can obviously use the seventh element. Do you know the person who created that element?”
Watson possessed all kinds of magical abilities, so he was obviously not an ordinary person. Therefore, it was not impossible for him to know someone who could create a brand new element. They were still very cautious in their guesses. They did not guess that Watson was the person who created that element.
Faced with everyone’s questions, Watson smiled and nodded. “Your guess is correct. I can use the seventh magic element. That magic element is called chaos. However, you are wrong about one thing. I do not know the person who created that element because I created that chaos element.”
“What? You created it?”
For a moment, the Dragon Kings were in an uproar.
“I sensed that new magical element in the world a long time ago. At that time, I was still wondering who had the ability to create a new element to change the pattern of the world! I had even specially investigated it, but there was no progress.”
“So, the Dragon Emperor had created the chaos element, and then, after coming to the Dragon Lair, he created the life element. Two of the eight elements in the world were created by the Dragon Emperor. How powerful is he? It seems like the Dragon Emperor is the messenger sent by the gods to improve the dragon race.”
Their faces were filled with joy as they gave Watson a thumbs up, their eyes filled with respect. If they had acknowledged Watson as the Dragon Emperor just to gain benefits from Watson, they were afraid that Watson would be able to suppress Nidhogg’s terrifying strength. At that moment, after realizing that Watson was able to create a new element that did not belong to the world, they respected him even more.
It would not be a disgrace to follow such a person. On the contrary, they would feel proud of it.
While many of the dragons were shocked, only Nidhogg’s expression did not change. It was as if he had known about that for a long time. At that moment, he extended his right hand and released an emerald-green light toward a protruding rock on the ground. That light contained a rich vitality. It instantly caused the entire rock to squirm and change its shape when it landed on the rock. From a hard rock, four limbs gradually grew out and turned into a living person.
That person was almost no different from an average human, other than the fact his skin was made of rocks.
“Lord Nidhogg.” After turning into a human, the rock walked in front of Nidhogg and knelt on one knee, revealing a respectful expression.
Nidhogg’s actions at that moment interrupted the Dragon Kings, who were still praising Watson.
“Creating life, this is the new right I hold! Other than that—” He muttered with a gloomy face. Reaching out his right hand, he pressed down on the stone golem who was kneeling on the ground in front of him. The stone golem’s body immediately shattered into dozens of pieces that flew out in all directions. Every stone golem that flew out squirmed, and after absorbing more dust from the ground, it turned into a human figure made of new rocks.
“I can also give new life to things that have been destroyed!”
The life element contained two kinds of abilities. It absorbed the life essence from plants, and the life energy could heal injuries. At the same time, life energy could also give life to non-living things. The former was called life recovery, while the latter was called life creation.
At that moment, the ability that Nidhogg released was life creation.
Even though he felt bored after thousands of years of fighting, he still felt a sense of joy after he created something. “Since you are creatures made from rocks, then from now on, I will name you the Rockman race,” Nidhogg said to the dozens of rock humanoids in front of him, whose bodies were made of rocks and emitted a gold-tier aura.
The Rockman was even more surprised after receiving their name. They kowtowed to Nidhogg, saying, “Thank you, Lord Nidhogg, for giving us the name. From now on, we shall follow the dragons and Lord Nidhogg.”
There were all kinds of races in the world. Among them were creatures that had human-like shapes and intelligence. People call them subhumans. The Rockman was clearly a subhuman; furthermore, they were entirely new subhumans who had never existed in the world.
After creating the Rockman race, Nidhogg did not stop. Instead, he waved his hand at the ancient green trees on the Divine Dragon Star and released his life energy.
Under the effect of the life energy, a large group of trees squirmed from the shape of the trees into a puppet-like creature with wood veins.
“From now on, you are me, a hybrid under Nidhogg’s name. I will name you the Puppet race.”
After the Puppets, Nidhogg looked around and waved at a volcano that was flowing with lava and where many young dragons were playing.
The lava outside the volcano turned into a humanoid made of sticky and hot lava after enduring the life energy. The lava was covered with a layer of black rock armor. It looked like a warrior who had climbed out of hell.
“I will name you the Hellfire race.”
After that, Nidhogg began to bestow all kinds of non-living beings on the Divine Dragon Star. A palace that Watson originally built was stained with life energy. It grew arms and legs and began to move freely. It was named the Palace Man by Nidhogg.
Nidhogg cut off a river that ran through the forest with a powerful force. The water elements in it were forcefully gathered by the life energy into the shape of a human, turning into the Rivermen race.
Even the air was given a special kind of life by Nidhogg with life energy, turning it into a race that was utterly invisible to ordinary people—the Transparent Men.
“Nidhogg, that’s enough. If you continue to give life to everything in the entire Divine Dragon Star, how will we use those things in the future? How are we going to eat it?”
When Nidhogg was still not satisfied and wanted to make a move on the food, the food that the dragons usually ate would become a living being that could move freely.
Take the Rivermen as an example. After Nidhogg gave the Rivermen life, they became giant python-like creatures that were made of water. Initially, those rivers were used by the dragons to drink water before they became a snake in the shape of a water stream. The dragons would no longer dare to drink from the stream, or they would get a bad case of diarrhea.
If they let Nidhogg turn food into a living thing again, then there would be no resources to use on the Divine Dragon Star. Not only would they not be able to use the resources, but they would also have to feed those food that had turned into something living. That would require even more resources.
“Of course, Nidhogg, I’m not infringing on your rights. You can take all the races that you’ve fused. I just hope that you can leave something for my lair,” Fafnir said. “I believe the Dragon Emperor thinks so too.”
“Nidhogg, it’s fine to create life, but there must be a limit. Otherwise, excessive creation of life will only make the world unable to bear the burden and accelerate its destruction,” Watson said with a nod.
The world he once existed in had become very poor because of human reproduction and the endless use of resources. He did not want the world to become like that.
“You’re right. Creating life is my right, and survival is your right. By creating life, I almost violated your rights. I apologize for my behavior just now.” The faint joy on Nidhogg’s face disappeared. He returned to his original gloomy look. “As compensation for violating your rights, I’ll give you some of my abilities. You can monitor me at any time.”
As he spoke, the huge source of life energy that had disappeared above Nidhogg’s head appeared again. A few strands of emerald-green life energy were divided and poured into the bodies of the Dragon Kings, including Watson.
The Dragon Kings trembled as the life energy irrigated their bodies. Watson’s energy was the strongest. Nidhogg had poured almost half of the life energy into his body, which caused a ball of energy that was even more powerful than the chaos energy source to appear in his body.
Even though the other Dragon Kings did not obtain much life energy, it was enough for them to display their ability to create life.
“I can’t believe that Nidhogg would actually give us his energy. That is really a first for me. Furthermore, that energy is even stronger than I imagined. I feel like I’ve drunk an entire Spring of Life, and my body is filled with energy!”
The Light Dragon King stretched out his right hand. Scales appeared on his right arm. He casually plucked a scale and poured life energy into it. The scale immediately grew into a hairy ball made of many scales. The hairy ball had wings similar to the dragons on its back, and it had two big eyes hidden under the scales. It looked adorable.
“I can now use the ability to create life. Look, that new life that I created, I named it the Great Lord Odyssey’s race.”
The Light Dragon King’s name was Odyssey. At that moment, giving such a name to the race that was formed from his own scales was very arrogant.
“Light Dragon King, just now, you said that you would not let Nidhogg create too many races. And you’ve created an even more ridiculous new race.”
The Forest Dragon King mocked the Light Dragon King. He plucked off a strand of emerald-green hair that belonged to him and gave it life energy, turning it into a small dragon made of hair. “If you want to create, you have to create a beautiful race. I named this creature the hair dragon. The race you created is too ugly. There’s no need for ugly creatures to exist in the world.”
“Hey, Forest Dragon King, what right do you have to criticize me? And you said that the race I created was ugly? Just you wait. I will create an even more beautiful race to defeat you.”
Light Dragon King was ridiculed. Just as he was about to create a new dragon, he was interrupted by Watson. “Alright, the program for creating creatures ends here. Next, I will distribute potions to all of you and make plans for developing the Dragon Clan in the future. If you want to create creatures, then you can create them in your lairs.”
Watson was speechless. He understood those Dragon Kings. After all, life energy was a power comparable to the chaos element. One could see how powerful it was. That power symbolized creation and could let people experience the pleasure of being a creator. That feeling was not something that ordinary people could resist. Even after he obtained the energy of life elements, he could not help but want to create one or two new races. However, he still hoped that those dragons could restrain themselves.
“The Dragon Emperor is right. I’d better not create any more creatures for now.”
Holding back the desire to continue creating, the Light Dragon King nodded. He exchanged a glance with the Forest Dragon King, and they turned their heads away.
The other Dragon Kings also had solemn expressions as they prepared to listen to Watson’s next mission. Compared to their prideful appearance when they first arrived, they were clearly more powerful, but their expressions were more humble.
“As the Dragon Emperor, I have a few orders for you! The first is to increase the reproduction rate. There are now 100,000 dragons on the Divine Dragon Star, and the Divine Dragon Star can bear at least a million dragons. I want you to use the Super Reproductive Potion I’ve created to increase the number of dragons to a million. Once that number is reached, there’s no need to continue with it.”
A million dragons. That was Watson’s plan for the dragons. It would be difficult to reach that number, and if they did not have enough, they would not be able to maximize their power. A million dragons were the best solution at that moment.
“Since I have become the Dragon Emperor, there are some things I can tell you! Currently, the races I control are the dragons and the sea folks, and the angels. Among them, the number of sea folks is also more than a million. The angel race is the main race I control, and they currently occupy the Holy Dragon Kingdom’s borders! In the future, the sea will be the territory of the sea folks, the angels will control the land, and the sky will belong to the dragons. The Divine Dragon Star is just a starting point. In the future, there will be many new stars in the world, and those stars will be the territory of the dragons.”
Watson had a great plan. Not only did he want to overthrow the rule of King Landhar III, but he also wanted to turn the Holy Dragon Kingdom into something he wanted. When he subdued the sea folks, he already had that idea in his heart. Therefore, he wanted to build a palace for the dragons. However, his original idea was to use angels’ to protect the kingdom’s territory.
However, his plan had changed. After subduing the dragons, he firmly believed that he could do better. If he could take over the whole world, then no one would be able to affect him and his family and friends.
“What do you all think of my plan? If you feel that it is a violation of your rights and interests, you can choose not to participate.”
After proposing the plan, Watson explained it appropriately, but the Dragon Kings did not object. It was more like they were excited. Nidhogg also said, “The Dragon King accepts your plan. That is my duty, not a violation of my rights and interests.” Unexpectedly, Watson agreed.
“Since you don’t object, then I’ll make a second request! I hope you can gather all the treasures in your respective lairs onto the Divine Dragon Star, and I’ll start to modify it to make the Divine Dragon Star better. Of course, that is only a suggestion and not mandatory. If one of your dragons offers a particularly rich resource, I’ll reward him.”
“Don’t worry, Dragon Emperor. When I return to my lair, I will move all the treasures here, leaving none behind! Oh, by the way, does my wife count as wealth?” The Light Dragon King said hurriedly after Watson finished speaking.
Although Watson said that it was not mandatory and that they should give the reward voluntarily, all the Dragon Kings understood that only by giving as many resources as possible could they receive Watson’s reward, which was much better than the various treasures they had accumulated before.
“Light Dragon King, don’t count those vulgar wives of yours. The Dragon Emperor would never take a fancy to those people,” the Forest Dragon King mocked disdainfully. Then she said, “Dragon Emperor, I also have a question. If it’s a treasure from other races, does it count? The Elven king invited me to join the army that was attacking the Holy Dragon Kingdom. He promised me a sufficient amount of water from the Spring for Life. Can I offer those to you?”
“That’s exactly what I’m saying. Regardless of whether they are treasures from the dragons or not, as long as it’s a treasure, it will be fine. Sending it to the Divine Dragon Star will count as your contribution. However, you must use proper actions to obtain those treasures! Other than the treasures, I also want you to gather information about the various kingdoms. Your lairs are located in different kingdoms. That should be a very simple matter for you. Just like the information that the Forest Dragon King has sent me is pretty good. I didn’t know that the Elven Kingdom was going to attack the Holy Dragon Kingdom. Tell me about it later. I’ll reward you.”
“Thank you, Dragon Emperor.”
The Forest Dragon King lowered his head and bowed. His bright and beautiful face raised his eyebrows, revealing an expression of extreme joy. That scene made the other Dragon Kings look envious. They were all wondering if there was any explosive news that they could tell Watson later.
As Watson issued his orders, the meeting officially ended. Almost an hour had passed. He turned around and left the Dragon Lair after telling the Dragon Kings everything.
While floating under the Divine Dragon Star on the way to the Holy Dragon Kingdom, Watson looked up at the stars hidden under the sunlight. The corners of his mouth curled up, revealing a confident smile.
“When I came here, I only thought of becoming one of the Dragon Kings, relying on my identity as the Dragon King and the various resources I controlled to influence the choices of the other dragons. I did not expect that I would become the Dragon Emperor and control the entire Dragon Clan. This is far beyond my plan.”
“I can only say that the Dragon Kings are reasonable people. They understand that the Dragon Clan can develop better under a leader’s command! As long as we follow a leader’s plan, the Dragon Clan will soon expand to a million dragons. The strength of the population and the weapons they possess will also greatly increase. The day when the Dragon Clan will dominate the skies is not far away. I am looking forward to the next meeting in a month.”
The God-armed Dragon, Sebastian, who had two spears on his back, had spoken respectfully.
At the end of the meeting, Watson had set up a monthly Dragon King meeting. At that time, no matter where any of the Dragon King was, they would have to go to the Divine Dragon Star. The Dragon Kings could exchange information and resources. He would also make a ranking based on the information given by the different Dragon Kings.
As that was the first Dragon King meeting, Watson did not give them any ranking. Instead, he kept a portion of the potions he had fused and gave the rest to the Dragon Kings. He let them use the medicine to return to their respective lairs to complete their tasks.
“I’m also looking forward to the next Dragon King Meeting. I believe that the next time I see all the dragons, I’ll see a different scene.”
Watson nodded. He had multiple identities. Not only was he the Young Master of Mount Creation, but he was also a candidate for the throne of the Holy Dragon Kingdom. He was also the Black King for the Severed Fingers Gang, and then he had become the Dragon Emperor. As the saying went, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. He bore the expectations of so many people, and he had to work hard not to disappoint them.
“After the meeting ended, the Dragon Kings, including the Forest Dragon King, revealed to me a lot of information about different kingdoms. The most important thing was indeed the information about the Winter Nation and the Elven Kingdom in the Forest of Eternity sending troops to attack the Holy Dragon Kingdom. I have to go back and digest it! Let’s go, Sebastian.”
“Yes, my honorable master.”
After Watson gave the order, Sebastian’s body suddenly expanded. He transformed from a human into a dragon, with two god-like arms protecting him. He carried Watson and flew toward the royal city. Soon, he turned into a streak of light.
..
Not long after Watson left, the Dragon Kings also bade farewell to Fafnir and returned to their own lairs.
At the Forest Dragon King’s lair…
After leaving the Divine Dragon Star, the Forest Dragon King, who had transformed into a Divine Nature Dragon, returned to the Elven kingdom stationed at the border between the Forest of Eternity and the Holy Dragon Kingdom. It only took one-tenth of the time to arrive at the Dragon Star; it took less than an hour.
She returned to the Elven Kingdom’s army base, which was a few kilometers walk in the dense primitive forest.
The Elf King treated her to a grand banquet. During the feast, the Elf King began to inquire about what had happened when the Forest Dragon King made a short trip to Fafnir’s lair.
“Forest Dragon King, why did Fafnir summon you to her lair in a hurry? Is there something urgent?”
“Not really. Fafnir recently helped the Holy Dragon Kingdom’s king build a new army of Dragon Knights, expanding the number of Dragon Knights to a hundred! In return, the Holy Dragon Kingdom developed a potion that could increase the dragons’ reproductive rate. Fafnir called us to give us that potion.”
The Forest Dragon King shook the wine glass in her hand and explained calmly,” You understand that reproduction has always been a top priority for the dragons.”
“Yes, I understand that, Forest Dragon King! You just mentioned that the Holy Dragon Kingdom developed the potion. Would you continue to participate if we were to go to war with the Holy Dragon Kingdom and they refused to supply that potion to the dragons? Also, is it true that the Holy Dragon Kingdom’s Dragon Knight Legion has expanded to 100 members?”
The Elf King was a little nervous, and he tightened his grip on the wine glass slightly.
It was difficult for him not to be nervous. It was the first time the Elven Kingdom had made such a big move by conspiring with the Winter Nation to attack the Holy Dragon Kingdom. They had even used a treasure like the Spring of Life. If they failed, the Elven Kingdom would probably end up in a miserable state. He had not heard that the number of Dragon Knights in the Holy Dragon Kingdom had expanded to 100. If he had known that, he would have brought even more troops.
The initial ten Dragon Knights were enough to make every kingdom feel scared, let alone 1a hundred of them. It was equivalent to having 100 dragons to help the Holy Dragon Kingdom in the war.
“Your Majesty, don’t worry. Since I’ve agreed to your request, I won’t let you down! Even if the Holy Dragon Kingdom has a hundred dragon knights, we have a hundred dragons on our side. In addition, you have a hundred thousand soldiers that have consumed the Spring of Life. That won’t affect the battle situation. Of course, if you’re worried, you can give me more water from the Spring of Life. That way, I’ll mobilize more dragons for you.”
“I have to think about it.”
“Take your time to think about it. We’ve just returned from Fafnir’s lair. My subordinates and I are very tired, so we’ll go back and rest first! You must remember that war with the Holy Dragon Kingdom is only a few days away. If you want to think about it, try to be as quick as possible.”
She pretended not to see the dissatisfaction in the Elf King’s eyes as she led her subordinates out of the banquet tent. She muttered to herself, “If the Elf king can give me more water from the Spring of Life, I can hand it over to Watson. It doesn’t matter if the Elf King disagrees with that.”
Before meeting Watson, she thought of the Elf King as wise and ambitious. However, she realized that he was far from Watson. The Elf King wanted to destroy the Holy Dragon Kingdom, but Watson wanted to ally with other races to dominate the world. Watson was younger, but his horizons were utterly incomparable.
“In any case, I don’t care who wins or loses. The dragons and the Dragon Emperor are destined to rule the world. I only need to follow closely behind the Dragon Emperor!”
..
On the other hand, in the Winter Nation…
“Your Majesty, the dragons heading toward the Holy Dragon Kingdom have returned to the northern ice fields.”
Sitting on the throne made of ice and snow, Empress Gustav listened to the reports and frowned. “They are back so soon. It’s only been a few hours, hasn’t it?”
While muttering, Empress Gustav noticed that the ministers were reluctant to speak. She said slowly, “What else do you have to report? Why do you have such an expression? As one of my most capable ministers, that doesn’t seem like your style.”
“Your Majesty, I do have one more thing to report. That matter might sound very strange, so I’ve been hesitating whether to say it or not! Just now, after the dragons returned to the Winter Nation, they sent someone to contact our kingdom’s army. The Dragon King is willing to move their lair out of the northern ice field and loosen the restrictions on non-dragons in the northern ice field. At the same time, they can help us train an army of Dragon Knights.” The minister had a strange expression on his face. He explained it in a voice that sounded like he was talking in his sleep.
Upon hearing his words, Empress Gustav suddenly got up from her seat and revealed a look of disbelief. “Did that cold and heartless Dragon King really say that? The Dragon King, who had clearly occupied the northern ice field for hundreds of years and had never been friendly to humans, would want to help us? What kind of joke was that?”
The Dragon King in the northernmost ice field was the Dark Dragon King. However, in the eyes of the Winter Nation’s residents, they were more willing to call him the Ice Dragon King. That was because only extreme darkness could bring extreme coldness. That Dragon King had always been the representative of the anti-humans. Even the envoys sent to talk to him might be killed if he was in a bad mood. That was also the reason why the Winter Nation was shocked when they heard the news.
“Your Majesty, that brutal Dragon King did say so. He also said that if Your Majesty did not believe him, we could go to his lair to meet him! He is waiting for a reply at the icy plain in the far north. However, he also said that there was a price for helping us. We would have to offer all the precious treasures in the kingdom to him.”
“Treasures?”
Empress Gustav raised her eyebrows, and a hint of emotion appeared in her blue eyes. Then, she became fierce. “Send someone to contact that Dragon King and tell him that I have agreed to his request! The Winter Nation had not dared to target the Holy Dragon Kingdom. On the one hand, it was because of Sword Saint Reid, and on the other hand, it was because of their army of Dragon Knights. Now, the Winter Nation will also have our own Dragon Knights. That is really a blessing from the heavens. As long as we defeat the Holy Dragon Kingdom, we will be able to make up for the lost treasures. There are not many opportunities to establish a relationship with the Dragon Clan. Since that Dragon King wants treasures, I will give him enough treasures. This time, I must seize the power of the Dragon Clan for myself.”
Empress Gustav immediately gave the order, and the Winter Nation began their assigned tasks.
Similar things happened in the Thorn Empire and the Dwarf Kingdom. The dragon lairs in different kingdoms moved one after another, radiating the dragons’ power to the mortal realms.
Meanwhile, in the Holy Dragon Kingdom, Watson had also returned to the sky above the capital.
He had not seen the capital for more than a day; Watson felt as if a lifetime had passed. While he was lamenting about that, an ear-piercing boom suddenly came from the capital, as if someone had sounded the alarm.
Immediately after that, a group of Dragon Knights rushed out of the sky. There were a hundred of them, followed by the other soldiers. They used their combat aura wings or magic to rise into the sky. There were tens of thousands of them. The leader of the Dragon Knights was Julius, while the leader of the other army was Hoen.
The personal guards protected King Landhar III. He rode on a huge throne and also came into the sky, looking down at Watson from above.
Tens of thousands of troops and the Dragon Knights rose into the sky. That shocking scene made many people in the capital look up at the sky in surprise. Those who did not understand it thought that someone was attacking the capital.
“Watson, it’s been a day. I’ve been looking for you for a whole day. Do you know how I spent this day?”
After seeing Watson, King Landhar III spoke first. His voice was dignified with a hint of resentment, like a wife who her newlywed husband had abandoned for a few days.
“Your Majesty, I’m sorry. The Dragon Clan are very hospitable. I only stayed in the Dragon Clan for one more day, but I’ve made you worried! It’s only a day more. You don’t have to make such a big fuss to welcome me, do you?” Watson sat behind Sebastian’s dragon form; he scratched his head and revealed a shy smile unique to that young man.
“Welcome you?”
King Landhar III snorted coldly at Watson’s words. “I order you to go to the Dragon Lair to participate in the Dragon Knight selection. The others have returned, but you haven’t returned! Julius has already reported to me. He asked you to come back, but you chose to stay in the Dragon Lair. That meant you did not take my orders seriously. It’s good enough that I don’t punish you. Why would I welcome you? Men, take Watson down.”
Whoosh!
Following King Landhar’s order, the tens of thousands of troops in the air drew their weapons and approached Watson.
“Halt. If you come any closer to my master, don’t blame me for being impolite.”
Sebastian opened his mouth, which was full of fangs. Even the breath that it spat out when it spoke turned into a hurricane, blowing away a group of silver-tier soldiers who were approaching them. The gold-tier guards could only barely resist him. Then, the two-colored arms of the god began to clench their fists. The intense fluctuations they emitted were so strong that even the gold-tier guards could barely stay where they were. They retreated, their faces filled with fear.
They knew that Watson was the strongest genius in the kingdom, and his strength was extraordinary. However, Watson had yet to make a move. The dragon beneath him was enough to stop their approach. Was he that powerful? They had seen all the dragons that had returned to the kingdom. None of them were as terrifying as Watson’s mount.
Watson was not only a genius, but even his mount was also extraordinary.
