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

Chapter 324: Chapter 211: Father-Daughter Estrangement? Black Dragon’s Bounty Mission_2

Reg vomited blood…

He had been bombarded by the power of thunder, which was now many times more ferocious and violent, causing him to spit blood.

Lying in the pit, he felt stunned.

He had withdrawn his defenses, and Black Dragon should have sensed this… shouldn’t it have weakened the power of thunder?

How come not only did it fail to weaken, but it also became even more violent than before?

Could it be that he, a human adventurer, was mistaken for a hero intent on slaying dragons?

He had no such intention.

Nowadays, he was not very interested in fame and fortune.

Damn Black Dragon, it was definitely targeting him on purpose.

Reg chose to resist forcefully. He wanted to make use of this violent and savage power of thunder to undergo arduous training.

Aroman, Nas, Fire Bear, Space-Tearing Butterfly, and the Snow Lady, these five city lords were still struggling desperately. They found that the more they resisted, the more ferocious the power of thunder became.

The thunder that followed even seemed to become heavier, which Nas could clearly feel.

Gravity.

That bastard Black Dragon Lance definitely mastered gravity, a kind of exotic primordial force.

And successfully infused it into thunder.

How could a black dragon achieve such a feat?!

It hurts.

He had been injured by a human youth before, and it seemed like the latent injuries were being drawn out by the power of thunder.

How much longer would this “Thunder Tempering” last?

The Thunder Tempering continued for nearly two hours.

After two hours, the enormous Thunder Primordial Energy Array that shrouded above them finally dissipated completely.

The sky regained its original azure color.

The city lords who were attacking Lance now sprawled out on the ground, no longer having the energy even to counterattack.

The Black Dragon, after bombarding them for nearly two hours, seemed to be running out of strength as well.

Energy depletion, physical strength depletion.

This was quite normal, to maintain such a massive Thunder Primordial Energy Array, even with a lake’s worth of energy inside one’s body, it would have been drained dry.

Their physical strength had also declined.

The moment they saw the Thunder Primordial Energy Array disappear, Black Dragon’s massive body faltered and its dragon legs trembled for a while.

That bastard Black Dragon Lance was now lying on the ground, using it to mask his embarrassing physical decline.

“You… you… why aren’t you striking anymore? Could it be… you don’t have the energy to hit us now?”

“Thunder Tempering is a welcoming gift I gave you. Feel the current state inside your bodies. Remember this sensation, and in the future, when there’s thunderous weather, you can try to actively draw the thunder into your body. It’ll be beneficial for you.

Nas, what’s with the internal injury in your body? Who hit you?”

“I was hit by a human youth who looked weak and was quite benign. It happened just a couple of years ago. That human youth couldn’t control his power well. After he injured me, he apologized and compensated me.

To show his sincerity, he gave my daughter a golden bean that’s somewhat magical. With just a slight press, it can click and transform into a set of armor that covers and protects the whole body.

I took the beating for you. That human boy originally targeted you, the Evil Dragon. He wanted the Red Dragon to be his companion and to join him on an adventure.”

“???”

A human youth?

Injuring Nas, the city lord of the Nas City?

And casually gave away a golden bean that could transform into armor?

Which novice village chief kicked out the kindest child in the village?

Letting such a young and naïve child venture out alone, aren’t they afraid of the dangers the child might encounter?

Letting out an ignorant child like this… isn’t it somewhat unkind to him as a black dragon?

“Why weren’t you invited to be his companion?”

“They say ‘giant elephant’ doesn’t sound as cool as ‘giant dragon.’ That brat disdained me. My daughter initially disliked that human youth quite a bit, always squabbling. After spending some time together, her view of him improved significantly.

When that human whelp left Nas City, he told my daughter that when she got a bit older, he would invite her to be his teammate and take her on adventures.”

Mentioning this, Nas felt frustrated. That carefree human kid could easily win his daughter’s favor.

Nas suspected that the boy might not live long; how long can a carefree person survive?

The strong figures in the human world are very cunning and deceitful.

They could easily play to death a young boy whose hair hadn’t even grown fully.”

“Isn’t that seducing your daughter? As a father, can you tolerate this? Don’t you want to slap him to death?”

“Can’t beat him…”

“Then your daughter is in danger, maybe by the time your daughter comes of age, that human boy will really reappear in Myriad City, inviting your daughter to become his partner.”

No way.

Just to be safe, when I get back, I have to warn my Dragon Whelp to be cautious around that kind of naïve and clueless human boy—absolutely no getting curious.

I’ll have to give my Dragon Whelp a preemptive warning.

So I don’t end up raising a Dragon Whelp only for some newbie human kid to snatch her away.

Humans are the worst.@@novelbin@@

It’s all ‘I like catgirls, I like dragongirls, I like beast-eared ladies.’

Oh, the Dragon Whelp I’m raising temporarily doesn’t seem to be able to turn into a human yet.

Then it’s fine.

If she can’t turn into a dragongirl, she probably won’t catch the eye of that human boy.

No, that’s not right.

I’m still wrong.

The best way to keep the Dragon Whelp I’m raising off humans’ radar is to make her strong.

Stronger the better.

So strong that she can turn any human kid who fancies her into a pancake with a single punch.

Wait a second….

My Dragon Whelp… is alone in Red Dragon City.

No, I have to get to Red Dragon City.

I can’t let my Dragon Whelp be kidnapped.

“Take your time to ponder; I have matters to attend to and must be going.”

Lance stood up, and as his golden-red vertical pupils swept over Venus, Amelia, and Reg, the icy golden-red vertical pupils landed on Reg.

“Human hero Reg, I have an interesting bounty mission here. Are you interested?”

“???”

Reg adjusted the tattered clothes on his body, feeling that the Black Dragon making a bounty offer to humans was rather peculiar.

It had been a long time since he took on a bounty mission. At his level, what bounty could possibly be worth taking?

But… he was interested in hearing about the bounty mission mentioned by the Black Dragon.

“Speak, I’ll listen.”

“The reward is for locating that human boy, the one from Myriad City, not to avenge Myriad, but to return him to his beginner’s village… oh, to send him back to the village where he grew up. Complete this bounty mission and you can gain the friendship of a Black Dragon.”

Amelia, who had just woken up not long ago, rolled her eyes upon hearing Black Dragon Lance’s words, thinking that damn liar Lance was trying to exploit Reg’s free labor again.

And winning the friendship of a Black Dragon…

As if not taking on this bounty mission would mean not gaining the friendship of this Black Dragon.

???

Reg was stunned; he hadn’t expected the Black Dragon to issue such a bounty.

To send a human boy back to his home village.

Why would a Black Dragon care about a human boy?

“Do you know the human boy who injured the lord of Myriad City?”

“I don’t.”

“Then why issue such a bounty?”

“Can’t bear to see Myriad and his daughter at odds.”

Myriad was moved to tears. When Black Dragon Lance was making him angry, he could be infuriated to death, and when helping him, he could be moved to tears.

Good and bad in equal measure.

“Sorry, but this bounty mission would be more interesting if I told it. Sadly, I don’t have time to take it just now.”

“There’s no time limit. Just by taking on this bounty mission, you can gain my friendship.”

“I…” Amelia was about to speak, but the voice of Black Dragon Lance rang directly in her mind: “Don’t reveal my identity to Venus and Reg for now, give it a day or two before telling them.”

“Even if I take this bounty mission, I won’t be wholeheartedly helping you with it.”

“This task suits you. Your current level of power makes simple hard training practically useless for you. You need to travel more in the human world, to experience and perceive, to stand a chance of advancing further.

Who knows, you might even complete this bounty mission inadvertently during your travels.”

“Are you sure?”

“Certain.”

Reg fell silent, then with a smile he said, “I’ll take on this bounty mission, not for your friendship, but because you’ve paid the price in advance.”
