Evil Dragon: The young dragon I picked up keeps planning on becoming an empress

Chapter 287: Chapter 194 Lord of Red Dragon City, Lance_2

The Dragon Whelp put down the fork, picked up the cake, and threw the entire piece into its mouth.

As it ate, its eyes grew moist.

Tasty enough to bring on tears?

Is the cake at this place really that delicious?

I’ll pack up two slices in the evening and bring them back for the Dragon Whelp as a post-meal dessert.@@novelbin@@

“Lance? Lance! Are you listening to me?”

“I am listening, I can hear you,” Lance snapped back to reality, and smiling, he replied to Venus, “What did you just say?”

“Nothing much, just noticed you staring out the window and called you twice. I was about to discuss the situation I’ve come to understand so far.”

“Go ahead, I’m listening carefully.”

Venus, displayed on the projection screen, walked to the balcony with a glass of water, took a sip, and slowly began to relate Elyia’s situation to Lance.

“I became aware that Elyia was in trouble when I saw her name on the bounty mission list from Hell. She was wanted for: severely injuring a trainee Grim Reaper and injuring a first-class Grim Reaper from Hell.

She entered Hell, destroyed three prisons that held Evil Spirits with a Dark Spirit Summoner, allowing those Evil Spirits to take the opportunity to escape from Hell and flee to the Human World.

She also worked with the Dark Spirit Summoner to snatch an undead being from the Hell Grim Reaper’s grasp.

That’s why Hell wants Elyia.

As for the Divine Realm, they’re after Elyia because she violated the Divine Realm’s laws, responding to the summons of a Dark Spirit Summoner and even daring to break into Hell with him.

Beyond that, she injured the Divine Spirits trying to apprehend her, and most importantly, it seems she’s also colluding with Demons, striking some unknown deal with them.

That’s probably why the Divine Realm is after her, but whether that’s the case or not, I’m not sure.”

In the Dragon Domain, Elyia has offended several strong city masters who are also hunting her, and they’re not afraid of her Divine Spirit status at all,” said Venus, her face showing worry. The issues concerning Elyia herself weren’t too hard to handle, but the real problem is that Elyia had also made enemies of many powerful beings in the Dragon Domain.

With her current strength, she’s not capable of handling so many powerful foes, and even if you add Amelia into the mix, it’s still not enough to ensure Elyia’s safe departure from the Dragon Domain.

Not to mention there are Divine Spirits chasing her.

I had thought that after a thousand years, both she and Amelia would have grown strong enough to handle things on their own. I didn’t expect that their first attempt to solve a teammate’s problem would land them in such a dire situation.

When there’s something beyond your capabilities, ask for support when it’s time to ask for support. Forcing a solution to something beyond your ability will only make the situation worse.

That was what I told them back in the day, but they didn’t agree with me then. Full of youthful bravado, they didn’t think there was anything they couldn’t handle.

They thought I said it just because my abilities weren’t as good as theirs, that I wasn’t as strong as they were.

Not long after, their ignorance, pride, and fear of losing face almost caused the deaths of an entire village’s people.

From then on, they took my words to heart; if they don’t call for support with things beyond their capabilities, sometimes the outcome is something they cannot bear.”

“Call for Reg.”

“Later, I’ll have Amelia contact Reg. Reg has been dealing with a Demon issue recently and probably won’t be able to leave in a short time. Lance, if you’re not too busy, you better come quickly. I’m afraid Amelia and I won’t be able to ensure Elyia’s safety.”

Lance, sunk into the plush sofa, nodded his head.

He thought that only Hell and the Divine Realm wanted Elyia, but he hadn’t expected the city masters of the Dragon Domain to be hunting her as well.

The [city masters] seeking Elyia are likely not the [city masters] of the Human World but rather those powerful [Emperor Beasts] deep in the primeval forests.

Some [Emperor Beasts] have combat capabilities that even surpass Pureblood Dragons. These powerful beings naturally wouldn’t fear a Divine Spirit.

For an [Emperor Beast] to be acknowledged as a [city master], if it doesn’t possess the strength to awe all creatures, it’s not worthy of the title [city master].”

“In the Dragon Domain, which city masters are hunting Elyia?”

“The Lords of Wànxiàng City, Peacock City, Huoxiong City, Magma City, Wànhuá Garden City, Red Dragon City’s Acting Master, and Behemoth City’s Master…”

???

Isn’t there a rather odd city master among all these?

Red Dragon City’s Acting City Master?

After so many years, this city still hasn’t changed its name?

And what exactly did Elyia do to offend so many formidable city masters?

Venus made the right call asking for reinforcements. Even as a trainee Grim Reaper, she’d hardly be a match for these city masters.

These city masters are one slyer than the next.

Take the Lord of Wànxiàng City, for instance—appearing simple and honest, yet he’s cunning to the core.

And the Magma City Master, despite being a formidable yuki-onna, named her domain Magma City.

This has led many Human World champions to mistakenly believe the Magma City Master is a Lava Giant.

A bunch of sly and shameless rascals.

“You and Amelia, don’t confront these city masters head-on. With your strength, you’re no match for them, and a direct conflict could have you owing a compensation way beyond your imagination if you merely scratch their accessories or poke holes in their robes…

You could even end up captured, forced to work like slaves for them if you can’t afford the compensation. Elyia might already be priced out.”

Lance cautioned Venus. He certainly didn’t want to see Venus get caught by those city masters.
