Pierre’s Illustration is out, and it’s in chapter 01, leave a like if you like it *^
’Let’s catch the mastermind first!’
If the other party is the mastermind, she should be stronger than the pink-haired girl. However, even though Meliora hadn’t fully recovered to her best state, she believed she could still have the upper hand with a surprise attack...
After all, that unfamiliar presence doesn’t seem to be very strong...
Since the mastermind has already entered the Forbidden Palace, trying to avoid a fight would be foolish.
The Dragon King’s honor cannot be disregarded!
"Hoo~"
Meliora took a deep breath and made her decision. By the way, this decision would come back to bite her later.
"It’s a good opportunity for me to practice as I wake up to get back in shape!"
Meliora’s eyes suddenly widened as a majestic force surged from within the dragon loli, directly enveloping the girl. With the support of powerful magic, Meliora’s physical abilities soared instantly.
Her dragon wings, covered in a faint golden light, suddenly spread open, and her dragon scales gradually transformed into armor, wrapping around the delicate body of the loli dragon. Surging magical power gathered in her dragon claws. The loli dragon’s body even lowered itself slowly, seemingly turning into a fierce beast about to launch an attack on its prey.
"No... don’t..."
Yuan’er guessed Meliora’s intentions, slowly raised her hand, as if trying to stop the dragon loli in front of her. A look of worry appeared in her red and blue heterochromatic eyes.
Seeing this, Meliora disdainfully snorted and had no intention of stopping her attack just because of the little girl’s plea.
"Stay quiet!"
Ignoring Yuan’er’s words, Meliora gave the girl beneath her a warning look. She continued to gather her magical power and created several thick golden chains that abruptly bound Yuan’er’s body.
Then, the dense golden magical power gathered around her body suddenly exploded like ignited gunpowder. Accompanied by a deafening roar, a terrifying shockwave erupted in all directions from the center of the loli dragon, shaking the Forbidden Palace, which was enhanced with magical power, into pieces.
And the great Sacred Dragon King, Meliora herself, in the blink of an eye, turned into a dazzling golden meteor, carrying surging magical power, and fiercely assaulted the black figure that had appeared at the entrance of the Forbidden Palace!
...
As she watched the loli dragon transform into golden light, Yuan’er’s expression gradually became complicated. The words that Meliora had just scolded her with slowly escaped her lips...
"Little Meliora... Don’t... be reckless..."
...
On the other side, feeling the surging power within her, Meliora even felt a long-lost excitement deep within her heart.
"This feeling... it’s... truly wonderful!"
For over eight hundred years, she had finally been reborn, finally able to control that overwhelming magical power again, and finally able to shine the glory of the Sacred Dragon King across the entire continent.
A hint of indescribable joy gradually appeared on Meliora’s face.
Although she had been lingering in the stone heart of the Sacred Dragon in soul form for these eight hundred years, Meliora still concealed a "steadfast sense of justice" within her. Over the years, due to some decadent daily life and her fear of that Abyssal girl, this "sense of justice" had gradually been buried deep in her heart.
And with the slow return of her past strength, Meliora’s self-confidence gradually returned. The hidden sense of justice was even more rarely brought back into the light.
Vaguely,
Meliora felt like she had become the guardian of the continent once again, just like the one from all those years ago.
"I... seem to be back in action!"
As the guardian of the continent’s pace, the excited dragon loli had one thought in her mind: to punish the dark evil demon in front of her. She believed that the person who the pink-haired girl called ’Mommy’ and who had entered the Forbidden Palace with ill intentions was undoubtedly a wicked person.
This wicked person probably intended to destroy the Sacred Dragon Heart, depriving the many talents of the continent of their ’blessings.’ This would gradually lead to a decline in the continent’s abilities to fight against Abyssal Demons. Such a malicious individual deserved divine punishment!
...
Even though the loli dragon herself wasn’t entirely sure how she arrived at this conclusion, Meliora’s fierce determination was ignited by this idea. Her golden dragon eyes were filled with excitement for the fight.
Not only that, but Meliora quickly formulated a battle plan in her mind. She intended to catch the enemy off guard, planning to pierce the opponent’s chest with her Dragon King Spear. Then, she would use her magic to block the flow of magic within the enemy’s body, thus restraining their movements. Once the enemy was completely immobilized, she would begin to interrogate them to uncover their motives and identify any hidden masterminds.
...
After a sudden roar erupted in her heart, Meliora, in the form of a golden meteor, rushed to the entrance of the Forbidden Palace with lightning speed, surrounded by the overwhelming golden magic. It was at this moment that the figure referred to as ’Mommy’ by the pink-haired girl came into Meliora’s view.
While she couldn’t directly sense a powerful shadow energy emanating from the figure, the faint but ominous aura surrounding the girl and the confusion shrouding her confirmed Meliora’s suspicions.
"This woman... is definitely not a good person!"
With this conclusion in mind, Meliora’s actions became decisive. In an instant, a pale golden light illuminated the heavens and earth. The immense dragon aura, centered around Meliora, rapidly spread in all directions, enveloping the entire Forbidden Palace. If it weren’t for the protective barrier outside the palace, this colossal dragon aura would have likely swallowed the entire Luminous Royal Academy.
Feeling the resurgence of her immense power after a long time, Meliora regained the confidence she once had. Her golden dragon eyes were filled with an enthusiastic emotion.
"Dragon King Spear!!!!"
Accompanied by Meliora’s swift incantations, the overwhelming magic and draconic aura that saturated the world tore through the air, rending the very fabric of space. It gathered steadily in the palm of her right hand.
"You, the one tainted by sin, shall face the judgment of the Sacred Dragon King! Ahhhhh!"
In her ancient dragon tone, Meliora roared with majestic determination as she resolutely advanced toward the shadowy figure. The golden radiance enveloping the loli dragon at that moment transformed into a sword-like force capable of piercing through the cosmos, emanating an awe-inspiring power as she launched a ferocious assault on the dark figure.
It was evident that Meliora intended to end it in a single strike. However, as she drew closer, the tempestuous storm of magic lifted the enemy’s veil and revealed the face of the black-haired girl before her. At that moment, the mighty Sacred Dragon King confronted an unexpected revelation.
"Huh??????!"
’Wait, hold on! That face... it feels very familiar the more I looked at her...’
Gradually, deep within Meliora’s mind, the image that often surfaced in her nightmares began to overlap with the face of the black-haired girl before her.
And in the moment when these two faces merged, the fiery determination in Meliora’s heart was instantly extinguished as if by a tidal wave. Her dragon eyes widened in shock, and her cute and lovely visage gradually contorted and twisted, beginning to resemble a certain famous world painting...
For a moment, the young dragon held her breath. An oppressive feeling gripped her heart like the claws of the abyss.
The sense of justice that had moments ago driven her to punish the evil vanished into thin air. The confidence that had swelled was deflated like a punctured balloon.
’??!!’
’Huh?! This... this person?! She... she?? It’s her!???!!!!!’
’What the heck! How can it be you?! Why are you here?! Aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh!!!’
(╯°Д°)╯︵┻━┻
Driven by instinct, the loli dragon’s eyes gradually transformed into two sunny-side-up eggs...
...
...
Meanwhile, Yumo, who had just entered the Forbidden Palace and was looking ahead at the approaching golden meteor, tilted her adorable little head in confusion.
’Hah?’
’What’s going on here?’
..
.....
Right now, our Yumo found herself in a state of utter confusion.
She had been busy comforting her scared students when she received a message from Sebastian about Yuan’er’s whereabouts. It left her completely stunned right where she stood.
Lately, Yuan’er had been wandering around the Luminous Royal Academy on her own, which had raised some concerns for Yumo. After all, despite the suppression of her powers by Kalina, Yuan’er was, in essence, an adorable Abyssal Demon king. If her identity were accidentally exposed, the consequences would be unimaginable. Yumo couldn’t bear the thought of her beloved daughter being mistreated.
So, Yumo had entrusted Sebastian with the task of looking after her daughter whenever she couldn’t be there herself. And then, today, Sebastian had relayed a shocking piece of news.
Her dear daughter was currently dashing headlong toward the central part of Luminous Royal Academy, which happened to be the legendary forbidden area of the academy.
Due to Yuan’er’s incredible speed, even Sebastian, as reliable as he was, was powerless to stop her. After all, no matter how dependable Sebastian was, at his core, he was a level 5 cultivator. Trying to retrieve a level 8 like Yuan’er posed ’some’ difficulty.
In desperation, Sebastian turned to Yumo for help.
Upon hearing this news, Yumo’s brow twitched involuntarily. Considering the discussions she’d had with Yuan’er about the Sacred Dragon’s Heart before bedtime last night, a troubling suspicion suddenly crossed her mind.
