Chapter 989 - 989 616 Before the Coronation_1

Chapter 989: Chapter 616: Before the Coronation_1 Chapter 989: Chapter 616: Before the Coronation_1 “That’s right, the kind of dragon that often scares children and always appears as the villain in stories.”

Looking at Ariel Watson’s amazed eyes, filled with a bit of caution, Red Night shrugged helplessly and nodded.

Although she hadn’t been in her human form and living among the humans for long, her extraordinary love for food had already led her to form a close bond with the foodie duo Scarlett and Bianca White.

In their leisure time, the trio’s discussions revolved around various delicacies from around the world and, naturally, the Dragon Clan itself.

As a result, Scarlett, known as the “Greatly Understanding of the Territory Wet-the-bed Warrior,” had taught Red Night a lot of various knowledge and stories.

Leo Ray was quite confident in Scarlett’s knowledge.

Although she often didn’t seem very reliable and appeared unintelligent, according to Daisy and Sasha Zuman, Scarlett was an outstanding student among the mages in her graduating class.

Whether it was learning and memorizing complex and lengthy theories of magic, performing actual spell casting, or even excelling in various strange aspects, she was exemplary.

Of course, she also caused her fair share of trouble, distressing many of the elders in the Magic Tower. Their already thinning hair was practically balding, making her a rare and influential figure at the Magic Tower.

“However, after being summoned to the territory, perhaps due to the influence of other exceptionally talented subordinates, Scarlett’s arrogance and recklessness have all but disappeared, and she is quite reliable in battle,” thought Leo Ray, raising his eyebrows and focusing his attention back on the matter at hand.

“I can’t believe Senior Red Night is actually a member of the Dragon Clan.”

After getting Red Night’s affirmative response, Ariel Watson couldn’t help but look at Leo Ray with admiration in her starry eyes.

No wonder he is the Lord!

He could even win over the proud Dragon Clan and have them submit.

For more than six centuries, including His Majesty the Heroic King, none of the nineteen generations of rulers in the Coldflame Kingdom had ever been able to win over a dragon, even with the power of the entire nation behind them!

At the same time, the admiration on the faces of Burt, Joshua, the petrified Benson, and Randall with his still dropped jaw was also apparent.

Feeling the gazes of his subordinates, Leo Ray helplessly laughed, then briefly described how he managed to win Red Night over.

Of course, to take care of Red Night’s feelings, Leo Ray deliberately left out her treating Firsdale City as a refuge and simply said she was accidentally trapped there.

“… So Senior Red Night was able to transform into a human being thanks to the Tier 5 Shape-shifting Magic Medicine from the Lord?”

After listening to Leo Ray’s story, Ariel Watson took a deep breath, her admiration even more apparent.

Although the Lord spoke lightly about the mysterious Dragon Mirage and his face-to-face confrontation with Red Night in her dragon form, it was comparable to any legendary story about dragon slayers or Dragon Knights.

“So, the underground of Firsdale City was really once a place where Senior Red Night slept?”

In the midst of her astonishment, Ariel Watson couldn’t help but sigh to Leo Ray, “My Lord, when I was young, my father warned me that if I misbehaved, I would be sent to Firsdale City, where the fearsome Red Dragon was sealed. I thought it was just a joke he told to scare children…”

“If you had been a little naughtier, you might have met Red Night first.”

With a helpless smile, Leo Ray turned his head back to his subordinates and said seriously, “Well, due to some special reasons, Red Night cannot appear in her true form. You must all keep this a secret.”

“However, obtaining the Dragon Saliva won’t be a problem. We just need to go back to the Underground City of Firsdale where there are adequate protective measures.”

With that, Leo Ray turned to the dragon woman beside him and said, “Red Night, I’ll speak with City Lord Tran later about this matter. Once we leave the Outer Region, find some time to make your way there.”

“Yes, my Lord!”

Without any hesitation, Red Night responded with an energetic and determined voice, “I will fulfill my mission!”

“Very good.”

Nodding in satisfaction, Leo Ray’s gaze shifted back to the City Lord.

Looking at his still pale, stunned face, Leo Ray smiled and said, “Benson, now that both of your difficult conditions have been met, the Lethal Curse on you can be lifted.”

Hearing Leo Ray’s words, Benson’s strong body trembled and he finally regained his senses from his shock.

He couldn’t help but throw himself at Leo Ray’s feet in ecstasy, crying out without regard for his image, “I am immensely grateful, my Lord! I am immensely grateful!”

At this moment, aside from expressing his gratitude, Benson couldn’t find any other words to describe his overwhelming emotions.

It had been more than twenty years, and the seemingly impossible dream he had been thinking about day and night had finally come true!

And it was all because of the young man with a smile as warm as the spring breeze standing before him… The cursed one that he was, he had received the Lord’s favor time and time again!
