Shut Up Dragon! I Don't Want To Have Children With You Anymore

Chapter 135: Chapter 135: Fire Magic is Weak



[🎉 Shoutout to Gersom for joining patreon. Thank you very much.🤗]

From a distance, one could hear the conversation between the father and daughter.

"Here, this is the advantage of lightning magic. Luna, repeat it once."

"Okay~"

Father and daughter sat cross-legged on the grass. The little dragon girl recalled for a moment, then began to narrate fluently,"Lightning magic is a type of magic with strong overall abilities. If you concentrate the power at a single point, it can effectively damage a single target; if you spread the power out, it can launch a large-scale attack on multiple targets."

"Lightning magic can also be used to enhance one's speed, strength, physical endurance, and other basic attributes."

"It is an all-around magic type that excels in both offense and defense."

Leon gave a thumbs-up,"Good! Luna, remember this—if you master lightning magic, you can travel anywhere in the world. Got it?"

"Got it, Daddy!"

"Why are you only teaching the benefits of lightning magic and not teaching about fire magic too?"

A familiar female voice came from behind, magnetic and carrying a hint of laziness.

Father and daughter turned toward the voice.

A tall beauty in a long dress, her silver hair and dress hem were lightly lifted by the breeze, revealing fair and slender legs and round, delicate ankles.

Even without wearing formal attire, her entire being exuded an aura of cold arrogance and nobility.

Luna's eyes lit up, and she happily called out,"Mommy~ Anna said you were resting today, so Daddy and I didn't want to disturb you."

Rossweise smiled as she walked over and sat down cross-legged beside them.

She glanced at Leon, then shifted a bit further away.

"Mommy, why are you taking a day off? Are you sick?",Luna asked with concern.

"No, Luna, don't overthink. Mommy is just a little tired. I'll be back to work as usual tomorrow~",Rossweise pinched her daughter's little nose and said indulgently.

"Oh, I see. As long as Mommy isn't sick, that's good.",The little dragon girl was finally relieved.

"I just heard Daddy was teaching you lightning magic, is that right?",Rossweise asked.

"Mm-hmm! Mommy, let me tell you, lightning magic is super powerful. Daddy specializes in lightning magic."

Since his daughter was hyping him up, Leon knew it was his time to show off.

He puffed out his chest, cleared his throat, and made his presence known,"Luna, come show your Mommy a demonstration."

"Okay, Daddy~"

The queen was taken aback, unsure what kind of stunt this father and daughter were about to pull.

Luna stood up, bent her knees slightly, and spread out her palms. In an instant, blue electric light flickered in her hands.

Before long, two lightning spheres had formed in Luna's hands.

Rossweise's pupils trembled slightly, a bit surprised,"It's only been two days since you awakened, and you've already grasped the shape manipulation of magical energy?"

Although a sphere is the most basic form of energy manipulation, this learning speed... was already on par with Noah.

Luna dispelled the lightning spheres and sat back down next to her mother, looking up with an expectant expression,"That's right, that's right! Luna is amazing, right~"

Rossweise raised her hand and gently stroked her daughter's head, sincerely praising her,"Mm, very impressive. Really impressive. So… what about fire magic? Have you learned anything about it?"

Leon's main element was lightning, but that didn't mean he only knew lightning magic.

After practicing magic for over ten years, if he still only knew one element, he might as well start over.

"Uh... no, Daddy hasn't taught me yet.",Luna answered honestly.

Rossweise's eyes gleamed as she realized this was a perfect chance to pick a fight.

She turned to Leon, narrowing her eyes as she scrutinized him,"Why are you only teaching lightning magic and not fire magic? Is it because you don't know it, hubby?"

That one word—"hubby"—sent chills down Leon's spine.

Hearing Rossweise call him "hubby" outside of the bedroom felt like Death itself was reading names from a list, and whoever got called had to go with it.

But it wasn't entirely wrong for Rossweise to call him out—after all, Leon really hadn't taught Luna any fire magic yet.

Not only that, but for the past two days, he had also been secretly instilling in his daughter the idea that "lightning magic is the world's number one magic, while fire magic is just a lame spell that only heats things up a little"—

Okay, maybe not in those exact words, but the meaning was about the same.

As a result, Luna never took the initiative to ask about fire magic.

And Leon had thought that this mother dragon was too busy with work to check up on Luna's learning progress.

Who would have thought that on the third day, his little scheme would already be exposed?

Leon rubbed the tip of his nose and explained,"Step by step, right? Whether it's lightning or fire, both are equally strong, so it doesn't matter which one we teach first."

'Equally strong?'

'Why do I feel like this guy isn't capable of saying the words "equally strong"?'

Rossweise raised an eyebrow and asked suspiciously,"Really?"

"Yes—"

"No, Daddy, that's not what you told me yesterday.",Luna tilted her head and blinked her big, innocent eyes.

"What do you mean, not? That's exactly—",Leon tried to stop his dear daughter from stabbing him in the back.

But it was too late.

"You be quiet. Luna, what did Daddy say yesterday?",Rossweise turned to Luna.

Luna counted on her fingers and listed the "sins" of fire magic.

"Daddy said fire magic has too few applications."

"It's too easy to learn, so mastering it doesn't feel rewarding."

"Only dumb dragons focus on fire magic, and it's not as practical as lightning magic—"

"Uh... Mommy, why do you look like you want to eat Daddy?"

[Dinner]

Braised eggplant, stir-fried eggplant strips, deep-fried eggplant patties.

The side dish was carrot salad.

Generally speaking, the last meal before a criminal is executed is called a "last meal." Last meals are usually quite lavish, with chicken, duck, fish, and meat all included.

But for Leon, this highly targeted dinner was a perfect fusion of his last meal and his execution.

He held his knife and fork, unsure where to start.

After some deliberation, he thought it might be best to have a drink of water first to steady his nerves.

But when he glanced to the side, he saw that Rossweise had already placed a large cup of carrot juice on the table, replacing his water cup.

She had completely blocked his last escape route of drinking water to fill himself up.

'All this just because I didn't teach our daughter fire magic? Does she really have to treat me this cruelly?',Leon thought to himself, secretly sulking.

CRUNCH—

The crisp sound of a carrot being bitten echoed from the side.

Leon followed the sound.

Rossweise was resting her chin on one hand, holding a carrot in the other. Her red lips parted slightly as she bit off the pointed tip of the carrot and slowly chewed.

Seeing Leon looking at her, Rossweise generously held out the carrot to his mouth,"Want a bite? Here, have some."

Leon lowered his gaze. The bite mark on the carrot still had a faint trace of Rossweise's lipstick.

The next moment, the strong scent of carrots invaded his nostrils.

'Whoa, damn. That feeling was like having twenty pounds of medicated oil poured straight into my brain',—utterly overwhelming.

He quickly turned his head away, trying to find something on the table that he could actually eat.

Unfortunately.

There was nothing.

Rossweise always went all out in whatever she did. There was no way she would leave him even the tiniest bit of a backup plan.

Meanwhile, Luna was happily munching on the fried eggplant patties her mother had made. They were stuffed with delicious meat filling, and she ate them in complete silence.

Clearly, his little sweetheart had no intention of rescuing her poor father. Leon had to find his own way out.

The dragon slayer had an idea and suddenly said,"Oh, I should check how much of the birthday cake from last time is left. If we don't eat it soon, it'll go bad."

Just as Leon was about to get up, he heard Rossweise say,"I already gave it all to Anna and the others this afternoon. Don't worry, nothing went to waste. Sit down and eat, dear husband."

"..."

Leon awkwardly sat back down, pursed his lips, and pretended to scold her,"How could you give it all away? Luna really liked that cake. Now that it's all gone, what's she going to eat?"

He attempted to use moral high ground to regain some control over the dinner table.

But Rossweise seemed to have anticipated this move.

Unbothered, she calmly took out a piece of cake, placed it next to Luna's plate, and then looked at Leon with a smile.

"Thanks for reminding me, dear. I actually did save a piece for Luna."

As the saying goes, when God closes a door, He opens a window.

But in this case, Rossweise was God. Not only did she shut the only door, she welded all the windows shut.

And then filled the room with eggplants and carrots.

Leon pressed his lips together and quietly set down his knife and fork. Worst case, he'd just skip dinner—he wasn't going to starve to death from missing one meal.

The queen glanced sideways. Seeing that her prisoner was still resisting to the bitter end, she deployed her next move.

"Luna," Rossweise suddenly called out.

"What is it, Mommy?",Luna looked up from her battle with the fried eggplant patties.

"You've been working hard learning magic these past two days, haven't you?",Rossweise asked.

Luna shook her head,"Luna isn't tired at all. Daddy teaches really well. He's very patient and never gets annoyed explaining magic techniques over and over. If anyone's tired, it's Daddy—he's the one working the hardest."

Little Sweetheart always knew how to appreciate her father's efforts.

But right now, it seemed she should hold back a little...

"So, you've been working so hard, dear husband. Why didn't you tell me? I could've helped share your burden."

Rossweise spoke tenderly while shifting closer to Leon.

Leon sensed danger and tried to scoot away, but Rossweise had already grabbed his wrist. Then, she picked up a piece of braised eggplant and placed it on his plate.

"I've been busy with work, and I can't do much else. But at the very least, I can make sure you eat properly, dear husband."

"I... I'm actually not very hungry..."

"Tsk, that won't do. You've been working so hard all day—if you don't eat, your body won't be able to handle it. Luna, don't you think your Daddy has to eat?"

Little dragon girl nodded seriously,"Daddy, you taught me that skipping meals is bad for your health. Eating on time keeps you strong."

And she even made it rhyme,'Sweetheart, are you preparing for an exam or something?'

"Honey, are you too tired to feed yourself? It's okay, I'll feed you."

"N-no need...",Leon tried to resist.

"It's fine, here, honey, open up—ahh~~"

The rich aroma of braised eggplant hit him.

Objectively speaking, Rossweise's cooking skills were top-notch. The braised eggplant was beautifully cooked, bursting with flavor.

But for Leon, it was poison. It was despair. It was the harbinger of world annihilation.

"ROSSWEISE—"
