Crossover Fic: The Blue-Eyes Hatchling, Found by the Knight King

It was another night with a bright moon and sparse stars.

As usual, after finishing all her chores, the blonde girl snuck out of her house and ran towards the cliff. The journey was smooth, without any real threats along the way—and, for some reason, she would occasionally see the corpses of small animals in the bushes. Rabbits, hedgehogs. The bodies of these animals showed no signs of fatal injuries, only that their eyes were wide open and their bodies were stiff, as if they had died of extreme fear.

And when the suspicious girl arrived at the top of the cliff, the scene before her surprised her even more.

The once-open platform was now mostly occupied by the bloody corpse of a giant bear. Under the cover of night, it looked like a small black mountain had suddenly appeared here.

And the blue-and-white young dragon, which she had seen as "harmless" and "somewhat cute," was now sitting on the corpse of this giant bear, tilting its head and poking it with its claws—it seemed to want to cut up the bear's corpse, but didn't know how to start.

"You did this?" the girl asked, her mouth agape in disbelief, looking at the huge bear that had died from blood loss. Then she looked at the young dragon standing on the bear's corpse, which looked a bit disheveled, with three shocking claw marks on its body, but was still full of life.

She could feel the faint magical energy from the corpse—which meant this giant bear was not even an ordinary "beast," but a magical beast with the blood of some mysterious creature flowing in its veins. A magical beast like this was a ruler in the forest. Even an organized militia would not dare to provoke it... but this young dragon in front of her was able to kill such a monster? How did it do it?

"Awu! Awu!"

Hearing the girl's question, the young dragon turned its head, a little proud and a little dissatisfied. The look of disdain mixed with pride made the girl realize that the little dragon standing before her, standing on the corpse of the giant beast, was not the "cute little thing" she had imagined.

"This is a dragon."

"A true dragon."

Speaking of which, this girl—no, it should be the existence named Artoria Pendragon—was actually also a true dragon. But because she was in the late Age of Gods and had lived with humans for too long, this female red dragon with a human appearance had no idea what a true dragon should be.

"They are natural-born rulers, fantastical species that suppress all rebellious will in the world with absolute power."

So, even a young dragon that had just hatched less than two months ago did not lack the courage to show its claws to the ruler of the forest, nor the strength to fight and win.

"Awu?"

"Well, you're right. I could probably beat this kind of guy too."

"Awu! Awu!"

"Eh, you're inviting me to eat together? That's not very appropriate... this is your prey, after all."

"AWU! AWU! AWU!"

"Alright, alright, then I won't be polite!"

Artoria's participation greatly increased Shiroryu's efficiency in butchering the giant bear. Her exquisite swordsmanship, which should have been used to slay enemies, was also quite suitable for this giant bear's corpse. The blade, imbued with the wind element, could easily cut through the thick and tough bear skin, revealing the flesh and bones inside.

"I see."

"She has a human appearance... so the sword has become her claws."

The young dragon watched Artoria's every move with curiosity and tried to imitate her use of the wind element—but unfortunately, it failed. The overly lively wind elements simply wouldn't condense on its claws. This was probably because its attribute was [Light], not [Wind].

"This bear skin is not bad, it has a certain degree of magic resistance... if I can find a craftsman who knows magic forging, I should be able to make it into a nice set of soft armor."

"As for this meat... let's add some salt and stew it, shall we?"

To be honest, the most valuable part of this giant bear's corpse was actually its blood, followed by its fur. The most useless, and even could be called a "side effect," was its meat. Unlike the meat of ordinary beasts, the meat of magical beasts was tough, hard, and unpalatable, and even contained toxins—it was generally not considered as an ingredient.

But fortunately, the ones standing here were two genuine dragons, not some other creatures.

"Even the meat of a magical beast, as long as it's handled properly, can fill the stomach!"

This was Artoria's motto. This dragon girl, with an astonishingly large appetite but who had never been satisfied since she was born, now finally had a chance to truly fill her stomach—even if it was the unpalatable meat of a magical beast, the energy she got from it was real.

"Burp~"

The two dragons were busy from dusk to dawn, and also ate from dusk to dawn. And when Artoria patted her already bulging stomach, unable to eat anymore, three-quarters of the giant bear, which originally weighed four to five hundred pounds, was still left.

"I can still eat for a long time!"

Artoria, already tired from eating, squinted her eyes, looking at the white light appearing on the horizon. A tired yet happy smile appeared on her face. This was the first time in the blonde girl's life that she knew: so, eating can also be tiring.

"Awu! Awu!"

"Eh, you want me to take the rest of the meat? Why? Aren't you going to eat it?"

"AWU! AWU! AWU!"

"Because you're going to catch new prey today, so you don't need this old food? Alright, alright, then be careful."

"Awu—"

Artoria looked at the high-spirited young dragon before her with a rather gratified look, as if watching her own naughty child gradually become promising.

—And I wonder if it's an illusion. She felt that this little dragon seemed to be a little bigger than a few days ago.
