Chapter 154: Chapter 140: Dragon Descendants Pay Respects, Campaign Against the Giant Demons (Part 2)

This was all to welcome the two Dragon Species, a gesture that showed them considerable respect.

"Yes. Edie greets you, sir."

"Angelina greets you, sir."

The Earth Bear nodded casually, then looked at the Little Earth Dragon still cursing wildly in his grasp.

The next moment, as the two watched in surprise, he frowned and abruptly placed the Little Earth Dragon on the ground.

Then, with a sudden, powerful swing of his forelimb...

"BOOM!!!"

The Little Earth Dragon, Vittorio, was sent flying as if he were a solid cannonball over ten meters in diameter.

Screaming, the Little Earth Dragon traced a perfect parabola through the air.

He finally landed squarely in a forest at the foot of Dawn City’s mountain, causing quite a commotion.

Watching this unfold, Silver Dragon Edie felt a tremor in her heart.

Angelina’s expression, however, remained as calm as a mirror’s surface.

"Alright, with that little nuisance gone, it’s finally quiet."

"Ladies, before you meet His Majesty, you can ask me anything you wish to know, though I am limited to what I’m permitted to answer. If you have no further questions after that, I believe we can proceed to the formal audience with His Majesty."

"So, do you two have any questions?"

The Earth Bear’s expression was now nonchalant, and he made no effort to hide his scrutinizing gaze as he looked at the two of them.

Silver Dragon Edie looked at the ’Smiling Tiger,’ Phemos, and had no intention of speaking up.

But Angelina, who looked incredibly tiny in comparison, had already made her move.

A vast amount of silver light suddenly converged around the Dragon Descendant warrior.

Enveloped in the silver light, her Metal Dragon Descendant abilities were fully catalyzed. In the next moment, the three-meter-tall Angelina had transformed into a warrior standing no shorter than the upright Earth Bear.

A female warrior over one hundred and twenty meters tall.

"I don’t like looking up at someone who is weaker than me but stands taller."

"I trust you don’t mind if we converse like this, Sir Phemos?"

Angelina looked nonchalantly at the Earth Bear.

Needless to say, the atmosphere between them was not pleasant.

Ultimately, however, this was merely the two of them testing each other. No matter how unpleasant the atmosphere, it wouldn’t come to blows.

"Of course I don’t mind. A Dragon Descendant of the Human Race who reached Tier Nine Peak in just eight hundred years has quite the reputation."

"But as for your power... we won’t know until we fight. Perhaps we can test each other’s skills after the audience with His Majesty?"

Phemos said with a faint smile.

Angelina gave a cold nod. "Of course."

Phemos’s eyes were cold.

"Then, ask your questions. We must hurry, as His Majesty’s time is precious."

Angelina was just as cold.

She knew why the Earth Bear had been so hostile to them from the start.

It was likely because this Earth Bear was the bloodline descendant of a certain being from the past.

The Lambert Family’s records did, in fact, contain an entry about slaying a Tier Nine Earth Bear.

But that had been over three thousand years ago, back when the gods were still present.

Three thousand years was an eternity from a human perspective, but for long-lived species like Demon Beasts, it was not so long at all.

But whatever the reason, Angelina had no intention of showing him any weakness.

Thus, the two sides maintained a strictly professional attitude and began their question-and-answer session.

"Sir, would you be able to tell us exactly where we are?"

The Earth Bear replied, "This is Dawn City, a town and stronghold His Majesty established in an Otherworld—the Karte World."

"At present, the City Lord is York Smith, who is under His Majesty’s favor. The city has a human population of over four hundred thousand, with more than fifty thousand Demon Beasts residing outside its walls."

"Is that clear enough for you?"

’Otherworld? The Karte World?’

Upon hearing this news, even though it wasn’t the first time, Silver Dragon Edie and Angelina couldn’t help but feel a mixture of shock and uncertainty.

’Do Otherworlds really exist?’

’And this unknown Majesty of the Dragon Race actually possesses such an ability?’

One could only imagine how profoundly shaken the two of them were by this revelation.

’Sure enough, with his connection to the Power of Space, this ’Black Dragon’ Majesty is far more complex than a simple title could ever convey.’

And so, doing their best to suppress their emotions, they continued the exchange of questions and answers.

Meanwhile, Lince was watching this scene unfold with great amusement.

Phemos’s hostility did indeed stem in part from a feud his father had with the Silver Dragon Descendant Clan.

But in truth, that wasn’t a major factor. After all, that was an era when the gods were still present; everyone served their own master, and there was nothing more to it.

Phemos didn’t dwell on it too much.

The main reason he put on such a hostile display was simply that he wanted to see just how strong Angelina, the famous clan elder of the current Silver Dragon Race, really was.

He even wanted to test his skills against her.

It was simply a matter of wanting to win back some face for his father’s generation.

However, in Lince’s opinion, Phemos was not necessarily a match for the Silver Dragon Warrior.

But Lince didn’t intervene.

He was content to let this sort of thing play out. After all, as his own operations expanded in the future, factional disputes were bound to arise.

As long as it didn’t affect the bigger picture, it was fine.

’Competition breeds motivation, after all.’

Thus, their session of questions and answers quickly came to an end.

Then, under Phemos’s cold guidance, the Silver Dragon Race’s Angelina and Silver Dragon Edie walked into the Divine Hall.

In the main hall, filled to the brim with Magic Crystals and shimmering with dense Magic Power and a seven-colored light, the two finally saw the master of this place.

’But... a Black Dragon?’

No! Lince’s current form had already changed into that of a Rock Steel Giant Dragon.

’This... This is His Majesty?’

’Isn’t he a Black Dragon? Why does he look like a Rock Dragon?’ 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

’No, no, something’s not right. Can a juvenile Rock Dragon grow this big?’

’If you told people this was an adult Saint Tier Giant Dragon, they’d believe you, right?’

’What in the world is going on?’

Silver Dragon Edie stared at the massive Rock Steel Giant Dragon in the center of the Magic Crystals, her thoughts in a complete uproar.

However, before the two of them could even react, just as they were gazing at Lince from afar, a fluctuation in space appeared around them.

A cage of Space took shape in an instant, like a perfectly square box.

It was invisible and intangible, but once bound by Space, both of them were lifted off the ground and sent flying rapidly toward the Giant Dragon ahead.

’This Power... There’s no mistaking it!’

A glint appeared in Angelina’s eyes.

Without resisting or making a single move, the two of them landed beneath the Giant Dragon.

"Silver Dragon Edie, on behalf of my mother Camilla, greets Your Majesty!"

"Angelina of the Silver Dragon Race, current clan elder of the Lambert Family, greets Your Majesty!"

The very moment she felt the Giant Dragon’s terrifying aura up close, Silver Dragon Edie instantly prostrated herself and began to stammer out her introduction.

As for Angelina, she didn’t hesitate. Even though she sensed the Giant Dragon before her seemed to only possess the power of Tier Seven, she still knelt on one knee in salute.

’The Power of Space does not lie.’

’The bloodline pressure of the Pure-blooded Dragon Clan does not lie.’

’Power? Tier Seven?’

’No, for the Pure-blooded Dragon Clan, the Tiers used by the various races of the continent are not an adequate standard of judgment.’

Looking at the kowtowing Dragon Species and Dragon Descendant before him, Lince couldn’t help but marvel, ’Since when did all the NPCs I meet start kowtowing to me?’

At this, Lince couldn’t help but break into a faint smile.

"Rise."

"I am already aware of your situation."

"The truth you wish to understand, the truth you wish to know, is right here. Do you still have any questions?"

Lince’s voice was peaceful, but every word he spoke carried immense weight.

"We have none, Your Majesty!"

"Angelina cannot guarantee that the entire Lambert Family will swear fealty to Your Majesty, but I will personally honor my promise and dedicate everything to the glory of the Dragon Race."

Not to be outdone, Silver Dragon Edie immediately spoke, her voice trembling:

"Your Majesty, I... I will, too! As will my mother, Camilla! We will all swear to defend the glory of the Dragon Race with our lives."

Lince was not surprised by their declarations.

’But since these two free laborers have arrived, I might as well put them to use!’

That’s right—Lince was planning to launch a campaign against the Giant Demons’ Farm City.

And so, Lince said with a cryptic smile:

"Very good. In that case, show me your resolve in the next battle."

"Huh???"
