"It's already been seven days. Why haven't they come out yet?"
Little Red was quite displeased. As time went on, her mood worsened.
All Dragons lacked patience, especially the Red Dragons, who were famous for being "arrogant," "disobedient," and "uncommunicative."
Dragons were a general term. Every type of dragon was vastly different. Before the Dragons broke free from the eternal Holy War, the Red, White, Black, Green, and Blue Dragons were viewed as creations of the Chaos Goddess and were considered subordinates of the Chaos Faction. Considering how the Chaos Faction was famous for its bad temper, in a way, the Color Dragons were quite difficult to get along with.
The Red Dragons of the Fire Element were hot-tempered and arrogant. They were extremely sensitive to the authority of their territory. The Blue Dragons of the Thunder Element were extremely warlike. They especially liked to hunt other intelligent creatures as food. The Black Dragons of the Corrosion and Darkness Element were truly cunning and evil. They were also the greediest of all the dragons.
Green Dragons and White Dragons were also Color Dragons, but they weren't particularly strong. White Dragons were even more famous for being mentally retarded. That was why Red Dragons, Black Dragons, and Blue Dragons were all major species among the Dragon Species. Their large numbers would have a large effect on the entire world. If they appeared anywhere in the mortal plane, it was likely that an air defense alarm would be sounded. When the Dragon Species exiled the Red Dragons and Black Dragons into the Underground World, many species that had been "harmed by dragons" were so excited that they celebrated overnight.
Yep, a Dragon Disaster. This was now viewed as a natural disaster. It was a natural disaster that was unpredictable and unstoppable. The moment it happened, it would definitely cause a tremendous amount of damage.
Dragons that only happened to come out and rob people didn't count as a Dragon Disaster. True Dragon Disasters were often viewed by the victims as the shame of their entire species. However, there was nothing they could do about it and could only let it happen on its own.
Little Red was an Immemorial Red Dragon. She was already powerful enough to take over an entire city and easily kill off any ordinary SemiGod. Then, if a Dragon that had experienced the Primordial Divine War decided to do evil, who would be able to stop her? Not to mention, Immemorial Red Dragons weren't even at the peak of all Dragons. There were also Supreme Immemorial Dragons whose ages were immeasurable. At their level, even True Gods might not dare to provoke them. (Dragon Egg, Infant, Youth, Adult, Adult, Old Dragon, Immemorial Dragon, Immemorial Dragon, Primordial Dragon, and Supreme Immemorial Dragon. All the previous errors have been corrected.)
It was said that the wood elves' holy land had been occupied by an Immemorial Green Dragon. Even now, the wood elves had no intention of handing it over. That Green Dragon had already treated the wood elves' holy land as a place to retire. Meanwhile, the Shield Dwarves' royal family accidentally broke through a certain seal, and an Immemorial Shadow Dragon (a dragon species similar to Black Dragons) appeared. The Immemorial Shadow Dragon then occupied the Shield Dwarves' royal palace for countless years, and even enslaved the Shield Dwarves' descendants as slaves. The once powerful mega empire, the Kingdom of Gulbai, was destroyed by the rage of an Immemorial Red Dragon.
The Supreme Red Dragon was ranked seventh on the Calamity Rankings, and the Supreme Shadow Dragon was ranked thirty-third on the Calamity Rankings. As for the Supreme Red Dragon that destroyed a mega empire by itself, it hadn't appeared for far too long and wasn't currently on the Calamity Rankings. But if it did appear, it would definitely be ranked in the top ten. Since it was far too dangerous, all Supreme Immemorial Dragons of the Color Dragons received the same treatment.
Actually, there wasn't much of a difference between Immemorial Dragons and Immemorial Dragons. Powerful dragons such as Immemorial Red Dragons would be able to fight against Immemorial White Dragons. Although Immemorial Red Dragons would most likely lose, if they reached the highest standard of Supreme Immemorial Dragons, they would at least have witnessed the rise and fall of countless Gods.
The Aichy continent was incredibly large. There were actually more secret realms and inaccessible areas than developed areas. It was far more likely that defeating such powerful existences would be impossible under normal circumstances. Most people would simply draw a dragon's head on a map and warn the unlucky ones who had to pass by to be careful. That was because if a dragon targeted them, it was likely that even a princess of a country would be treated as food on a platter. Nobody would even bother to save her.
Fortunately, Immemorial Dragons and Supreme Immemorial Dragons rarely appeared on the continent. They had subordinates who would hunt for food for them as long as they stayed in their dragon nests. They also had opponents at the same power level as them that restrained each other. From a certain standpoint, these dragons had their own territories and large numbers of citizens. They even had young dragons and Knight Dragons that were loyal to them. These dragons were more like a country than an individual.
Dragon City? Dragon City wouldn't be able to order around Immemorial Dragons. Dragons were a typical species that respected the strong. Molly, the Dragon Queen of the Immemorial Dragons, didn't even have many Immemorial Dragons at the same power level as her. When her husband was the Dragon Emperor, who barely reached the standard of an Immemorial Dragon, Dragon City did have several Immemorial Dragons that obeyed his commands. However, there were still no Immemorial Dragons at the same power level. As for Supreme Immemorial Dragons, there seemed to be two in the entire Red Dragon species. However, both of them were viewed as existences akin to Demon Lords. Even when the entire Red Dragon species was exiled, no one had ever seen them do anything.
Of course, some places definitely had Immemorial Dragons and Supreme Immemorial Dragons, such as Dragon Island and Dragon World. However, don't expect them to listen to you. These prideful Dragons wouldn't even allow their juniors to fly above their heads, nor would they listen to their juniors' commands.
Of course, for ordinary mortals, it didn't matter if they encountered an Immemorial Dragon or an Adult Dragon. Either way, they would all die.
Alright, now that things had reached this point, the conclusion had been reached.
Little Red Dragon was at the Immemorial Dragon level, and she was a Red Dragon that mainly robbed others. Now that these two identities were revealed, even if Little Red's hidden identity as the Dragon Queen wasn't revealed, she would definitely be ranked on the Calamity Rankings.
And Little Red even told me her name: Veron's Calamity, Ein Mezus. She was one of the few Immemorial Red Dragons that had been active on the surface for a long time. Her combat achievements … fine, perhaps it could be considered a dark history. She had burned down several cities, caused small countries to disintegrate, kidnapped princesses for ransom, and even created a plot to destroy a country to steal the country's treasury. She was definitely an evil dragon, and one of the best of all evil dragons.
From a certain standpoint, before that memorable adventure, Little Red had been a pure evil dragon in every sense of the word. And since she had outstanding combat talent and experience even among the powerful Red Dragons, it was easy to tell just by looking at how easily she had fought against her Dragon Queen mother, who had been through hundreds of battles. It wouldn't be wrong to treat her as an Immemorial Dragon.
It was likely that as long as her reputation spread, she would definitely be ranked on the Calamity Rankings. It would be difficult to say whether she would be ranked higher or lower than Roland.
"Although I don't know why the 'Undying Roland' has such a high ranking on the Calamity Rankings, just the fact that he's able to command that Immemorial Red Dragon to do battle is already proof enough of how ridiculous he is."
"… Have you heard? Those two Immemorial Red Dragons are still in this city …"
Intelligent creatures were able to survive for so long because they would pass down their knowledge to others. At the very least, they would tell their descendants how to deal with threats. When a humanoid Calamity Faction appeared by everyone's side, it would be quite obvious what they would do and how to deal with it.
And so, Little Red enjoyed "super VIP treatment". When she entered a bar, apart from alcohol, everything else would be paid for by the officials (Roland had told Samantha that a certain Red Dragon would go crazy if she wasn't a good drinker). Nobody dared to talk to her, and she didn't even need to pay to buy anything on the streets … It wasn't that Little Red didn't want to pay, but rather that the stall owner had already run off.
This was especially so after Samantha and the others returned to the Forest of Dreams. Everyone else around Little Red would be afraid to talk to her, or even secretly look at her with fear. The only person she could talk to was Molly, the person she hated the most. For Little Red, not having to "eat, sleep, and beat up Molly" was already an improvement in her patience.
Actually, even if there was a prohibition against drinking alcohol, Little Red would still go and steal alcohol based on her usual habits. But, it just so happened that she had to keep an eye on this troublemaker that she had finally managed to catch. She couldn't feel at ease drinking alcohol, nor could she sleep. Naturally, her mood kept worsening.
As for Molly, she truly hoped that Roland would come out as soon as possible. Over the past few days, she had accidentally angered her own daughter. Perhaps Little Red would simply vent her stress and dissatisfaction on Molly, which resulted in her being beaten up quite a few times.
Of course, at least half of the beatings were due to Molly's own actions, such as running away, poisoning her, rebelling against her, and so on. After doing this a few times, Little Red directly drew a small pool of her blood every morning, making her so weak that she was unable to play any tricks. If she was in a bad mood, Little Red would beat her up, making her feel like she was on the verge of death.
Considering how Dragon Queen Molly killed off Little Red's father and her siblings' entire family when she became the Dragon Queen, she hunted down and tried to kill Little Red. From a certain standpoint, it really couldn't be said who was right and who was wrong. Even if Little Red directly killed off Molly, it would be perfectly justifiable.
Even if Roland was here, he would probably only sigh about how chaotic the noble circle was. He wouldn't interfere, as this was someone else's … er, other dragons' family business.
But at this moment, this other dragon family's business came to him.
"Have you made up your mind? You should know what this means, don't you? "
"… Indeed, half-blood dragon descendants aren't treated well by others. But do you think that with me and Roland around, anyone would dare to look down on our future baby?"
Baby? That's right, something was wrong with Little Red these past few days. Harloys had made it quite clear — spring had arrived, the season for animals to reproduce.
"Relax, I'm not interested in bones at all. Although I like Roland quite a bit, my goal is to give birth to little dragons. Although I can reluctantly accept a half-blood dragon descendant, he won't even be able to give me that. I'm not a necrophile. "
Two years ago, back in Sulfur Mountain City, in that bar, Eliza was worried that Little Red would be her rival in love and challenged her by saying "I definitely won't lose," Little Red said this. And indeed, Eliza wasn't lying. She indeed had a good impression of Roland, but it was more of a familial friendship than anything else. It had nothing to do with love. She had always wanted a child of her own.
From a certain standpoint, the foundational reason for Little Red's complete retirement from her identity as an evil dragon was her maternal instincts that became more and more prevalent as she grew older.
As a famous evil dragon, not only did Little Red love Anne dearly as her own daughter, she would often transform into human form and play with other species' children in Sulfur Mountain City's small parks. She would act as an "amiable black-haired big sister." This doubtlessly caused those who knew her to be astonished and in disbelief. In fact, Little Red even got into a conflict with a new Holy Knight because of this.
Recently, Little Red's maternal instincts had become even more apparent as she stared at Samantha. She even tempted Samantha to become her second adopted daughter.
Dragons were relatively independent creatures. They were quite stubborn about territory. Most Dragons would live apart from each other even if they had offspring. It was mostly female Dragons who refused to recognize other dragons. And it just so happened that female Dragons were slightly stronger than male Dragons. That was why it was also more common for female Dragons to be the victors and merciless in fighting over the custody of their children …
Female Dragons believed that it was fine for them to have a family of their own without a husband, but they would definitely have a child. It would be even better if they had a nest of children. However, it wasn't so easy for an Immemorial Red Dragon to have a child.
In this world, the more powerful an existence's bloodline was, the more difficult it would be for them to have descendants. There were quite a few mixed-blood Dragons. It was just that dragons often went too overboard in certain areas. This was especially so for male Dragons who were bullied by their own species' females. They could only vent their desires on the females of other species, causing the number of mixed-blood Dragons to increase exponentially.
However, it would be quite difficult for a female Immemorial Red Dragon to have descendants.
First, she would need to find a male Dragon with a bloodline similar in strength to hers. Then, she would need to do this many times in exchange for an incredibly low chance of success. This meant that she would need to stay together with this male for a considerable amount of time. At the very least, she couldn't dislike this male too much.
This was something that Little Red couldn't do in the past.
Little Red had always been chased by her own species. She was also a mysophobe, and she loved cute little girls the most. By the time she became an Immemorial Dragon, she could only look for the few Immemorial Dragons that were few in number, or go look for powerful individuals from other powerful species. However, she just happened to look down on those vicious and foolish members of her own species. That was why she could only continue looking at other people's daughters while drooling.
To sum it up, she was just like those leftover women who accidentally passed the age limit. "The one that likes me is too pitiful to look at, and the one that I like doesn't have the corresponding ability." And so, as time passed, Little Red's resentment accumulated more and more, and she went even more overboard in certain areas.
Actually, Little Red and Momo had quite a good relationship. From a certain standpoint, they both belonged to the Strange Aunties Alliance. It was just that one of them was obsessed with lolis, while the other was obsessed with shotas. Whenever the two of them privately discussed how to please (abduct) children, Sulfur Mountain City's citizens would report this to the police more than once or twice …
Alright then, from a certain standpoint, after Roland revived, Little Red discovered to her surprise that his bloodline actually changed. In fact, it even faintly seemed to be above her own Immemorial Red Dragon bloodline. This meant that some trouble was destined to find Roland.
"Roland is currently undergoing a Dragon Bloodline conversion. After he successfully obtains the Red Dragon bloodline, the chances of him having descendants will be even higher. His future children will also become stronger and stronger. Even a mixed-blood dragon descendant can use a ritual to purify his bloodline and become a complete Dragon. No, I can sense how powerful Roland's current bloodline is. In fact, our descendants might even surpass the True Dragons. "
This was the reason why the stingy Little Red unhesitatingly sacrificed so much, even sacrificing as much of her own blood as possible.
If it wasn't for the fact that her blood loss had already reached a fatal level, she wouldn't have wanted Molly to taint Roland's Dragon Bloodline at all. That's right, she used the word "taint" to describe her own mother's blood as a source of pollution.
Cough, I should add that many Dragon Bloodline Warlock families would have siblings or family members leave their descendants behind in order to inherit their abilities. It seemed that as long as anyone was related to Dragons, it would be correct to say that their circle was truly chaotic, such as a certain Beast Tamer who was becoming more and more mystical.
But faced with Little Red's agitation, Molly hesitated for a moment before finally deciding to continue speaking.
"I'm not talking about descendants. I'm saying that if you're together with that man, do you really like him? If you're together only for the sake of descendants, you'll definitely meet with misfortune in the future. "
Little Red paused in surprise for a moment upon hearing this. This didn't seem like something Molly would say.
"I've personally experienced it …"
Her voice became fainter and fainter as she recalled the madness and pain of her past. This red-haired woman, who had always seemed so domineering, showed a rare sign of weakness as she showed her weak side in front of her daughter.
Little Red clenched her fists tightly. Molly actually dared to slander her father, whom she greatly admired, in order to find an excuse to lower her own disgust. Wasn't this just asking for a beating?
"… It's true. There's no need for me to lie at such a time. Perhaps in your eyes, Acdandi is a good father and a wise leader of the Dragons. But in my eyes, he's just a bastard who forcefully took over my father's throne and forced me to give birth to his child. I … "
Seeing that Molly was showing signs of weakness, which was rare for her, Little Red thought back to the information she had obtained in the past. After hesitating for quite a while, she finally put down her fists.
In the Dragons' records, the wise Dragon City King Acdandi defeated the previous generation's corrupt and greedy tyrant to become the Dragon City King. But, looking at it from the perspective of the previous generation's princess, Molly, Acdandi was indeed a bastard who killed her own father and forced himself on her.
As Acdandi left, the past became untraceable. If one really had to say anything, one would probably only be able to use the phrase "the noble circle is truly chaotic."
Little Red fell into deep thought when faced with her mother's rare sincere warning. But after a while, she chuckled.
"You're misleading me. My situation is different from yours. There's no deep hatred between me and Roland."
"But there's also no love between the two of you. Do you really think that he'll agree? Aren't you afraid that the friendship between the two of you will be destroyed? He's probably one of the few friends you have in this world. Perhaps he's even your only confidant. "
Molly didn't care about Little Red at all. But, what she said was correct. Back in the day, Little Red's relationship with Roland was exactly the same. Out of all the chaotic relationships between Little Red and Roland, Little Red's relationship with Roland was the best. Later, in Sulfur Mountain City, rather than saying that Little Red was Roland's prison guard, it was more accurate to say that she was Roland's good friend's companion in prison.
"… Him? He hasn't evolved enough emotional cells yet, so he doesn't even know what love is. Perfect, I don't need love either. Relax, if he doesn't agree, I've already made backup preparations. "
Little Red's face was filled with hesitation, but even more than that, she was resolved to make a sacrifice.
"Backup preparations? How could there be backup preparations for matters of the heart? Could it be that you … "
For some reason, Molly felt as if she had accidentally discovered something frightening.
"Yep, I should have listened to Momo's idea and drugged him! I specially prepared a special drug for Dragons, which will make him%&¥#&… and then I'll use ¥# @&* on him. At any rate, it's fine as long as there's a future generation. After that, he'll just think that he had a wet dream and that it's even better that he doesn't know! Our relationship won't change! "
"This is an aphrodisiac! This is a crime! "
Molly never imagined that there would be a day when she would want to stop a crime. But suddenly, the magical shackles that were restricting her suddenly tightened around her, making it impossible for her to get up.
Molly had an expression of panic and didn't know what to do. She could sense that Roland had already come out, and Little Red was adjusting her clothes, intending to greet him. There seemed to be some abnormal liquid in the vial in her breast pocket.
The former Dragon Queen was filled with anxiety. She believed that her daughter would really do anything for the sake of a child and a family of her own. Would the tragedy of the older generation repeat itself? But right after that, she heard Little Red's astonished shout.
"Roland, weren't you evolving the Dragon Vein? Why did the Dragon Vein disappear? Why do I feel like you're so weak right now!? "
