Chapter 164 -163: Enfeoffed Vassal

Dragons breathe fire.

This is both a kind of magical attack and an innate supernatural power.

When dragon breath is used as a magical attack, it’s dragon-flight spell constructed from dragon breath, similar to the Prime Energy spell of a Fantasy Beast or the Prime Breath Greatsword Skill of a Phantom Beast Knight—no matter what power the spell is made of, in the end, it’s all called magic.

When dragon breath is used as an innate supernatural power, then it requires Bipedal Flying Dragons to endow the power of origin, which is a trace of Dragonflame Essence.

Every Bipedal Flying Dragon, at the beginning of its life, will receive a streak of Dragonflame Essence.

Dragonflame Essence is the core strength of a Great Dragon, the highest form of the earth’s power, and the source of all magical creations.

A Great Dragon can continuously refine Dragonflame Essence from the volcano that nurtured it, but the Dragonflame Essence of a Bipedal Flying Dragon diminishes with each use—although not beyond regeneration, it takes a long time to recover.

And at this moment.

Lord Medikalun was employing his innate supernatural power, constructing Dragon Breath with Original Dragon Flame Essence to spray at Russell.

Just like in the Gloomy Dreamland, where the Little Dream Dragon sprayed Dragonflame at caterpillar fungus and mushroom bugs.

Surrounded by a warm sensation, Russell lowered the arm that shielded his front and reached out to grasp the illusory dragon breath flames.

But the next moment.

The dragon breath flames had already disappeared.

This burst of Origin Dragon’s Breath lasted less than five seconds; clearly, Lord Medikalun did not have enough Origin to sustain a forceful spray.

Even though it had only released Origin Dragon’s Breath for less than five seconds, the blue crystal dragon quickly grew listless, visibly succumbing to exhaustion. Then it curled up and fell into a deep sleep atop the Arrow Tower.

As for Russell, he felt a comforting warmth all over his body, as if wrapped in warm water.

“Grandfather.”

“The Great Dragon gazes, the radiant light protects.” Count Merlin looked at Russell with a complex gaze and slowly said, “Russell, this is your good fortune. Although the Origin power of a Bipedal Flying Dragon is mixed, it is enough to help you make a leap in progress.”

“You’re really lucky, Russell,” Mel also said enviously.

Russell of course knew that the Origin bestowed by Lord Medikalun was extremely valuable, but he didn’t yet understand the benefits of this gift, “Grandfather, what is going on exactly? The Origin seems to have diffused into my limbs.”

“Practice your Battle Qi, and soon you’ll feel the benefits of this Origin power,” Count Merlin said with a sense of emotion.

Then, glancing at the soundly sleeping Medikalun, he stepped into the void and left: “All right, go do whatever you need to do.”

“Grandfather, what about this Snow Demon Crystal?”

“It’s not very useful, just keep it as a memento,” Count Merlin said without turning back, waving his hand with great flair.

So, with no further politeness, Russell directly pocketed the Snow Demon Crystal with its handkerchief, intending to examine it when he had the time.

“I wonder if Ice Cream would eat it. If he does, how would Snow Demon Crystal compare to Ice Soul Pearl?”

With such thoughts in mind, Russell and Mel descended from the Arrow Tower, with Mel immediately instructing the servants to clean the bloodstains from the top of the tower.

“This is Dragon Blood; make sure to collect it all without leaving a drop.”

“Yes, Master Mel.”

Everything produced by Bipedal Flying Dragons was valuable, even their occasional droppings were beneficial in certain ways.

Not to mention the dirty blood that flowed out after the wounds were cut open.

The dirty blood contaminated by the power of the Snow Demon might need to be treated before it can achieve the effects of dragon blood.

“I now believe what Grandpa said, you were watched over by the Shadowflame Dragon.” Mel looked at Russell, full of admiration, “Lord Medikalun actually gave you a breath of dragon as a reward, thanking you for removing the Snow Demon Crystal.”

He paused, then said earnestly, “But, thank you this time, Russell. If it wasn’t for your discovery of Lord Medikalun’s condition, who knows how much pain it would have had to endure before the injury was found.”

“I always said I was good at healing half Ghost Beasts, didn’t I?” Russell smiled, today’s gains were beyond imagination.

Originally, he just wanted to test the Bipedal Flying Dragon and inform Grandpa of the hidden danger to Lord Medikalun.

Unexpectedly, he stumbled into performing surgery himself, helping Lord Medikalun extract the Snow Demon Crystal, and in the end, even received a breath of the Original Dragon’s Breath from Lord Medikalun as a token of thanks.

A huge profit!

“Alright, I get it, you don’t need to mention half Ghost Beasts anymore,” Mel said exasperatedly, as if the majestic and sacred Bipedal Flying Dragons could be compared to half Ghost Beasts.

“However, on another note, why was Lord Medikalun unwilling to let Grandpa treat it?”

“I don’t know, maybe because of a mismatch in temperament. Just as people have a thousand different personalities, Bipedal Flying Dragons have diverse characters too. Lord Medikalun appears gentle but is actually very proud inside, and looks down on everyone, even Grandpa.”

As he spoke, Mel took another careful look at Russell: “But I never imagined it would take a liking to you!”

“I’m also surprised.”

“There’s nothing surprising about it; that’s just how Bipedal Flying Dragons are, they have their own standards,” Mel said, putting an arm around Russell and talking as they walked, “Now it seems, Lord Medikalun is quite satisfied with you, Russell. You should seriously consider my suggestion.”

“What suggestion?”

“Become my vassal, then both of us brothers will be Flying Dragon Knights. I bet even Kunstan wouldn’t dare not respect us!”

“Can you call the shots on that? Besides, Grandpa is destined to live a long life, and Uncle will live a long life too…”

That was the problem, Mel of course believed that his grandfather and parents would live long lives.

So.

He might have to wait decades before having the chance to inherit the title of Earl. Shaking his head, Mel said, “It’s the same if you become Grandpa’s vassal.”

“Let’s talk about it later.” Russell didn’t take Mel’s words seriously, Bluebird Castle was not yet Mel’s to run.

Moreover, Lord Medikalun might have been influenced by the Little Dream Dragon, developing some fondness for him and even willing to bestow the Origin Dragon’s Breath. But as for a dragon-riding contract, Lord Medikalun might not approve.

“Alright then,” Mel also knew this, and said no more, “It’s still early, how about I take you to the city for a stroll?”

“Not now, I’ll go to the city later. I want to go to the combat training ground now, to practice battle qi.” Russell patted the sword at his waist, “I can’t waste the gift from Lord Medikalun, I’m going to try to cultivate it now.”

“You really are dedicated.”

“How else am I going to catch up with you geniuses.”

“Pop more pills,” Mel replied, “If you treat Magic Elixirs like food, catching up to geniuses isn’t hard, that’s what Kunstan does.”

“I don’t have the money.”

Russell waved his hand and headed to the combat training ground of Bluebird Castle.

The Origin Dragon’s Breath seeped into his limbs and bones, and although it wouldn’t escape, the sooner its effects were realized, the sooner he’d have peace of mind.
