Chapter 46 Young Dragon, Become the Emperor of the Giant Dragon Clan
Gullible Evil Dragons might exist, but that easily fooled Evil Dragon definitely couldn't be Lance.
If Evil Dragon Lance were truly gullible, Brude Donahue, that fierce ancient, would have become a Dragon Knight long ago, and might even have become the father of an Evil Dragon.
Evil Dragons are cunning and sly, deceiving even the Hell Grim Reaper, yet they still have the face to say they're naive and easily deceived, afraid of being tricked by a human princess.
An easily fooled Evil Dragon certainly wouldn't landscape a yard, let alone build a swing in it, plant rough ancient trees, or grow a peach orchard.
The peach orchard, the swing, the ancient trees in the yard, and that boundless pool at the mountain peak, it's clear they were prepared to bamboozle a princess.
"Hey, hey, hey, Young Dragon, watch your eyes—that thick disgust... it's making me seriously uncomfortable...."
"Ah? You noticed?"
"???"
Lance felt his intelligence was being insulted.
"Is your little essay done? Let me see it."
"Not... not yet."
"Slacking off comes with a price."
Lucia got a beating, the Evil Dragon again punched her head with his dragon fist, damn it, hitting a princess's head in the Human World... would lead to a sentence, or even execution on the gallows.
In the Evil Dragon's place... who would dare send the Evil Dragon to the gallows?
No, the question should be, who has the power to send the Evil Dragon to the gallows?
Anyway, she, the princess, didn't have that ability.
If one day she became stronger than the Evil Dragon, hmph hmph hmph... she would punch the Evil Dragon with the dragon fist too....
For now, though, she should give up such fantasies and honestly write her little essay in Dragon Script.
Dragon Script Essay: "My Dragon dad is the Emperor among Giant Dragons, he never hits me or scolds me, he loves me very deeply, often secretly giving me pocket money behind mother's back. My Dragon dad says that when I grow up, I will definitely become an Emperor as wise and sagacious as he is."
To not affect the content of the essay, Lucia replaced the Dragon Script she couldn't write with human writing, and then handed the completed essay to the Evil Dragon.
"I've finished writing it."
"I see... Dragon Whelp... you've crafted a splendid essay, not only did you highlight the theme but you also included your dream. It's excellent. The only flaw is that there's a little problem with your general knowledge.
For example, this part: 'My Dragon dad is the Emperor among Giant Dragons.' You could change this sentence to: 'My Dragon dad is the king of the Amethyst Dragon Clan.' Let me enlighten you, in our Dragon Clan there's no such thing as an Emperor, only a Dragon King.
Of course, there's also the Holy Giant Dragon and the supreme Dragon God. The Dragon God is on the same level as the Light God King, never mistake the Dragon God's rank as being lower than that of the Light God King."
The Divinity of the Dragon God is on par with that of the Light God King, they both possess the highest Divinity.
One might say the Dragon God might not be as powerful as the Light God King, but one should never consider the Dragon God a subordinate of the Light God King or think that the Dragon God's divine status is inferior to the Light God King's.
Lance thought that if he didn't clarify, the Young Dragon might subconsciously assume the Dragon God was inferior to the Divine King of the Human World.
To do so would be a blasphemy to the Dragon God.
In Lance's heart, he could blaspheme against the Dragon God, but other Giant Dragons could not.
When wandering the Human World, all races subconsciously believe the Dragon God's Divinity is lower than that of the Light God King's...
Even inferior to some of the Main Gods' Divinity...
The Dragon God is not impressive, and he, the Black Dragon, can't do much about that.
If only the Dragon God were a bit more impressive, he would have set up a Dragon God Temple in the Human World...
All sorts of temples exist in the Human World, but the Dragon God Temple is conspicuously absent.
Those Pureblood Dragons on Dragon Island are a bunch of blockheads, always sleeping in, not knowing the Dragon God should set up a temple, nor do they think to cause a stir in the Human World...
The Dragon God is not impressive, and the Dragons on Dragon Island are a bunch of blockheads.
In the future, restoring the glory of the Dragon Clan might just fall to the Young Dragon he picked up.
This ambitious Young Dragon he picked up is determined enough to become an Emperor in the Human World, so with just a little guidance from him, she might even dare to proclaim herself the Emperor of Dragon Island....
Just because there was no Emperor on Dragon Island in the past...
Doesn't mean Dragon Island can't have an Emperor in the future....
"Young Dragon, what was your dream again?"
"To become an Evil Dragon as excellent as you...how...what's happening? Is this dream...un...unrealistic?"
The Young Dragon was having trouble speaking because the way Evil Dragon looked at her had suddenly turned eerie, which was too frightening for the Princess...
More frightening than being punched with dragon fists...
"No, no, no, your dream is very realistic. I remember, apart from this dream, don't you have another dream? What was that dream again?"
"To become the em...emperor...of the Human World..."
This time the Young Dragon's teeth started to chatter.
The tone of the Evil Dragon was too gentle.
"Being an emperor is exhausting, with never-ending state affairs to handle every day, not even having time to sleep... Aren't you afraid?"
"Not afraid."
"Really not afraid?"
"Really not afraid!"
I am after all the second in line to the throne of the Phalan Empire, becoming the emperor would be justifiable. What's there to fear?
The first in line had been her older sister, who at the age of six awakened something incredible... and was later taken away by a temple.
Her status as the first in line was gone, and her smelly sister Asina became the first in line to the throne of the empire.
She, who should have been third in line, moved up a spot, becoming the second in line to the throne...
"Then I think your dream can be slightly changed."
"Change it to... what?"
"To become the emperor of all Giant Dragons, being the emperor of the Human World is nothing compared to being the emperor of all Giant Dragons... don't you agree?"
The Young Dragon's vertical pupils rolled back, and she fainted.
She fainted from what the Evil Dragon said.
Becoming the emperor of all Giant Dragons...
Is she worthy?
The Evil Dragon wants her to die...
If she really had such potential, would she not have been able to compete with her smelly sister Asina?
Would she have been given the title of "Loser Princess"?
If she had known the Evil Dragon had such expectations of her, she might as well have stayed Asina's "Loser Princess" outright.
Being the "Loser Princess" at least meant staying alive...
To become the emperor of all Giant Dragons... by then, even dying would be a luxury...
It was fine as a nurturing game, but to think of actually raising a Young Dragon to become the emperor of the Giant Dragon Clan...
There's never been an Evil Dragon so insanely cruel!
Even the legendary most Evil Dragon wasn't this heartless.
The fainted Young Dragon mentally ranted about the heartless Evil Dragon in her head.
"How has she fainted? Just casually discussing the possibility of this matter... and it scared her unconscious? That dragon courage... is too small...
Alright, becoming the emperor of the Giant Dragon Clan... might be a bit of a challenge... But it's not enough to faint from fright... This reaction... is somewhat exaggerated.
Wake up, stop pretending, I am not insisting that you become the emperor of the Giant Dragon Clan, it just crossed my mind, merely discussing the possibility of the matter..."
"I don't believe you, swear it, swear you won't force me to become the emperor of the Giant Dragon Clan, and I'll open my eyes."
"You open your eyes, and I'll make you grilled squid to eat tomorrow."
"Really?"
"Really."
The Young Dragon happily opened her eyes and sat up, then, thinking of something, lay down again: "Then you also have to promise me... not to use me as bait."
"....."
