Chapter 193 Silver Dragon Lady: Are you going to marry me?

Deya didn't expect that he would see an acquaintance, or to be more precise, he would meet a familiar dragon.

But at this time Deya's face turned black. You came up and said that I was still alive. You seem to be hoping that I would die.

Deya was secretly resentful, but when he saw Ignis, he felt more happy and joyful.

Ignis's ability to remember herself further proves that the world recollection she experienced has indeed changed the past, thus affecting the present and the future.

Deya was very sure that he had never seen the silver dragon Ignis except in the World Memories.

"Long time no see, Ignis."

Deya greeted softly, numerous thoughts running through his mind.

First of all, this silver dragon girl's brain isn't very good. Of course, that doesn't mean she's stupid, but her silly look always makes people seem gullible.

Secondly, according to his understanding, Ignis has a great liking for him, although the reason for this liking should come from the Ancient Spirit, the Dragon God.

If so, can I fool this female dragon?

A nine-ring dragon. If Deya could trick her into obeying his orders, he wouldn't dare to say that he was invincible, but as long as the gods didn't come, he could still do whatever he wanted.

However, although Ignis was very excited after seeing me, I don't know if her genuine affection for me is still there.

Just as Deya was thinking about these thoughts and how to speak, Ignis said happily: "Deya, I haven't seen you for so long, you are still so weak."

Deya's face darkened again.

I know that I am indeed very weak in front of you, but I am different from you. I have not really experienced nine hundred years!

When Deya first met Ignis, he was a fourth-ring necromancer. Now he has reached the sixth ring and mastered the power of myth. This was accomplished in a very short period of time.

But Ignis has obviously changed more greatly. This female dragon has reached the highest level that any mortal being can reach!
After a mortal creature reaches the eighth ring, the racial advantage will gradually disappear.

To put it simply, the mythical power of a seven-ring dragon is strong enough to rival that of several seven-ring humans.

However, when a creature reaches the eighth ring, whether it is a dragon or a human, the life level of both sides will be sublimated, and the advantage between the races will rapidly shrink.

At this stage, the strength competition between the two sides lies in the depth of self-awareness rather than pure physical strength.

This is also the reason why humans were able to surpass dragons and become the masters of this world.

He didn't know exactly how many eight-rings and nine-rings there were in the dragon, but he thought it was probably only about ten.

Humans have at least fifty eight-ring and nine-ring masters, and half of them are in the nine orthodox churches, and are priests bestowed by the gods.

But from this we can also see that humans far surpass other races in the number of top-notch powerful people.

"This is a long story, I will explain it to you later, but I didn't expect that the one who came here to follow the oath of magic this time would be you."

Deya looked at the mountains of treasures in the square and wondered if he could ask Ignis for a discount since he had met an acquaintance.

Although Deya no longer had any interest in treasures such as gold and silver, he still felt a little distressed to spend so much money at once.

Unexpectedly, Ignis said excitedly: "It turns out that it is you, Deya, who used this spell. Then Deya, can you give me more shiny treasures and give them all to me?

Although these gold and silver coins are a lot, I have to distribute them to other dragons, and on average each dragon will get too little wealth."

Although the gold and silver coins in the square are already piled up like mountains, if a giant dragon gets these treasures, it will definitely jump for excitement.

But this time, there are nearly a thousand dragons that have accepted the spell oath. If the treasures are divided, it will be found that each dragon can only get a very small part.

This is equivalent to asking the dragon to work for you for nothing.

Ignis' eyes lit up, and the huge dragon head approached Deya.

The breath exhaled from her nostrils and mouth made Deya shiver all over, and he felt a biting cold.

Looking at the dragon head approaching him, the dragon's eyes were bigger than his body, but for some reason Deya felt that Ignis's beautiful and clear light eyes were very cute.

He felt helpless and said, I wanted to bargain with you so that I could pay less.

You are so good. You asked me to pay more money when you saw me, an acquaintance of mine. You are taking advantage of me, aren’t you?
Deya has a new understanding of the dragon soul's instinctive pursuit of treasure.

Even Ignis, a cute-looking silver dragon, is so greedy for treasure.

Deya's heart moved and an idea immediately came to his mind.

If you want to fool the dragon simply by using treasures, you must be prepared to end up with nothing.

But if it is based on his own uniqueness, Deya feels that his idea is still feasible.

He immediately said, "Ignis, I will give you the same amount of treasure, and you will give me your next 50 years. How about that?"

Deya is not greedy, and he uses these treasures to fool Ignis for her whole life without any preparation.

But fifty years is enough time. In fifty years, I should be able to reach the eighth ring, right?

Especially since the bet between the teacher and the Church of Silence was also for fifty years, then within these fifty years, with the help of such a giant dragon, he would no longer have to worry about danger.

"Let me give you the next fifty years of my life? Deya, are you proposing to me?"

Ignis suddenly said something that made Deya's jaw almost drop to the ground.

He gritted his teeth, ignoring the cold gaze of Lamia behind him and the complicated emotions of Mavis, and said with a twitch of his mouth: "Ignis, why do you say that?"

"I've read your books, and in one of the books the hero said this to the heroine. Well, if you want me to marry you, I'll have to think about it."

Silver Dragon Lady's voice was excited, but also a little shy.

What kind of romance novel are you reading?

Besides, you must be over a thousand years old, why are you so shy?

Deya complained inwardly.

But if they are silver dragons, they might really read these messy books.

As a wizard, Deya is very familiar with the habits of silver dragons. This is a group of dragons that are curious about other races and will even learn all kinds of knowledge and civilizations of other races.

Deya didn't know what to say at this time. He sighed and said, "You should transform into a human first. If you keep the form of a dragon, I'm afraid it won't be long before this city collapses."

As a nine-ring dragon, no matter her rank or her own abilities as a dragon, the dragon might she brings is enough to scare ordinary humans to death.

Even a transcendent professional who has not reached the sixth ring will be frightened to death when standing in front of Ignis.

Just like at this moment, outside the square, the people of Hudson Territory were oppressed by the silver dragon's might and could not raise their heads.

If Ignis had not been restraining her dragon power, just standing there would have been enough to cause huge casualties.

Now, apart from Deya and his group, the only people who could stand in front of Ignis were Duke Hudson and a very few others.

Ignis also realized the consequences she had brought upon herself. Miss Silver Dragon said sympathetically, "Deya, wait a moment. Let me collect all these treasures."

After that, Ignis's dragon mouth uttered a tongue-twisting language, and Deya knew it was dragon language.

As a wizard, Deya did not learn the dragon language, mainly because many of the pronunciations in this language can only be made by the organs of dragons. As a human being, unless you modify your body, you cannot speak this language at all.

Unlike the settings known to Deya, the dragon language of this world does not carry any special magic, so there is no need to learn it. It is just a medium used by dragons to simplify spellcasting.

As Ignis whispered the difficult dragon language, a strong wind suddenly blew over the square.

The strong wind blew up the mountain of treasure and swept it into the sky.

And right above Ignis's head, there was a space crack with a huge gap torn open.

The mountains of treasure were all sucked into the cracks. In the blink of an eye, only a few scattered gold coins were left on the ground in the square.

"Ignis actually knows this kind of spell that can store items? Maybe it's a gift from the power of the Dragon God."

Just as Deya was thinking, Ignis recited a new spell.

Her body, which was over a hundred meters long when her wings were spread out, began to shrink rapidly. In the blink of an eye, she turned into the beautiful girl that Deya was familiar with, with long silver-white hair and dragon horns on her head.

Nine hundred years have passed, and Ignis seems to have not changed at all. Her beautiful eyes are clear, her temperament is very girlish, and her tall body and well-proportioned figure give people a different kind of charm.

In other words, it is the charm that comes from other races and species!

Even in human form, her aura remains strong.

Deya grabbed her slender fingers and dragged Ignis in one direction, saying, "Come with me."

"Wait a moment!"

Ignis suddenly stopped Deya.

Under Deya's puzzled eyes, she squatted on the ground, carefully picked up the scattered gold coins and put them away, then happily let Deya hold her hand and followed him obediently.

Seeing that the silver dragon lady didn't even let go of those gold coins, Deya was speechless.

Lamia and Mavis looked at each other and hurried to follow.

On the way to Deya's residence, Lamia whispered, "That female dragon just greeted you. Do you know her?"

Mavis looked hesitant, and she nodded slightly.

Lamia quickly recalled every detail of the past.

Although she was not always with Deya, when Deya was temporarily separated from her, it was rare for Mavis to be alone with him.

But both Deya and Mavis knew the silver dragon, but I didn't. This was a bit strange.

When did these two secretly get together without telling me?

It seems that there is only the world's recollection of that forbidden wonder.

But no matter what happened to Deya and Mavis in the World Memories, it should have nothing to do with reality. Just when Lamia was in self-doubt, Mavis gritted her teeth and said, "Ignis was someone Deya and I met in the World Memories."

"impossible!"

Lamia denied it immediately. The first thing she thought of was that Mavis was lying. She said very quickly:
"…The World Recollection is a fragment of past history. The silver dragon should be quite old. Her past is a piece of history, and it is very likely that she will be encountered in the World Recollection.

But even if she knew this silver dragon in the World Recollection, it should have nothing to do with her in reality."

Mavis also said in an incredulous tone: "This is also the reason why I hesitated just now. I am sure that Ignis and I have only seen it in World Memories. In reality, I don’t know that such a silver dragon exists.

But she obviously knew me, and she also knew Deya, and Deya greeted her without any scruples. I thought about it over and over but couldn't figure out the reason, and the only possibility made me unbelievable. "

Lamia touched the collar around her neck.

That was the humiliating item that Deya gave her in order to control her.

But as time went by, as her relationship with Deya became close to that of a lover, Lamia no longer felt that the collar was something shameful. Instead, she regarded it as a little interest for her and Deya.

As the witch of time, Lamia, like Mavis, also had a bold idea.

Compared to Mavis's disbelief, Lamia felt that the possibility might be true.

Because Lamia herself sometimes feels as if she has entered the long river of history, and she occasionally hears whispers from other fragments of time.

"If this is true, will Deya be in danger?"

Lamia's first concern was Deya's safety.

If anyone knew that Deya seemed to have the ability to change history, it would drive countless people crazy.

Will those people capture Deya and force him to do something?
Although Deya is very strong now, he is still no match if he faces the real eight-ring and nine-ring masters.

Thinking of this, Lamia's hostility towards Ignis immediately disappeared.

This dragon is very powerful. At worst, it is an eight-ring dragon, or maybe even a nine-ring dragon.

If she can protect Deya, and the Year of the Feminine is about to pass, the power of the Lord of the White Tower will be restored.

With the protection of this dragon and this witch, Deya's safety can be guaranteed.

If you want to blame someone, just blame yourself for being too weak and not having the ability to protect Deya.

Lamia sighed when she thought of this.

Being weak is really the original sin. This sin will even force you to give up your own emotions and accept things that you are unwilling to accept.

After Deya took Ignis away, the sound appeared again in the square that seemed to be frozen in time.

Duke Hudson exhaled lightly. He looked at the panicked and terrified people in the square and whispered to Hogan beside him, "That silver dragon is scarier than I imagined."

Hogan nodded vigorously and said, "I'm afraid that the silver dragon, with just one dragon, could destroy half of Susaitani before being cursed by this continental island."

Duke Hudson shook his head and said, “I really don’t know where His Royal Highness the Son of God got to know such a terrifying silver dragon.

And judging from the look on Lord Son of God's face, he is planning to trick the silver dragon into working for him."

Hogan then said, "Could it be that the dragon is not in the right place in the head?"

The Duke laughed and said, "Hogan, don't judge some things by appearances. The silver dragon may look stupid, but she is definitely not stupid.

How about we make a bet? You try to trick the silver dragon into obeying you. I can give you all the wealth collected by the Hudson family as a bribe."

Hogan shook his head quickly: "I'm not good at this kind of thing, and the stakes are too high."

Because if he loses the bet, he will pay with his life.

Duke Hudson laughed and patted Hogan on the shoulder, as if he was back in his youth and chatting with the taciturn Hogan.

There is not much difference in their ages, and Hogan has been loyal to the Hudson family since he was a child. In the eyes of the Duke, Hogan is no different from his brothers.

When he was young, he even hoped that his sister could marry Hogan. In addition to giving Hudson a strong and talented person, he also believed in Hogan's character.

But things went against his wishes. The Hudson family was in danger at that time. His sister married the King for the sake of the family, and lost her life for it.

Duke Hudson feels guilty about Hogan.

With Hogan's talent, he had the opportunity to become an eight-ringed demigod, but for the sake of his sister, he stayed on this continent and gave up his talent.

Under the curse of this continental island, he will never have the chance to advance to the eighth ring.

Hogan was not good at reading people's expressions, but he could guess what was in the mind of Duke Hudson, who grew up with him and was like a brother to him.

Hogan, who is nearly fifty years old, smiled and said, "Your Excellency the Duke, you don't have to overthink it, I did all this voluntarily.

Besides, no one has ever successfully advanced to the eighth ring in the past hundred years. I suspect there must be something wrong. I am lucky that I didn’t waste my life on something that I can’t do.”

He raised his head and looked at the people of Hudson Territory, and said softly: "...I failed to protect her, but I will spend the rest of my life protecting you and the Hudson family's territory."

……

Deya's residence in Hudson Territory, he took Ignis into it.

Silver Dragon Lady seemed to be curious about everything. She looked at the buildings in the house, walked around, tapped the table with her fingers from time to time, or picked up the white porcelain cup curiously and looked at the patterns on it carefully.

Seeing this hyperactive dragon lady, Deya said unhappily, "Be careful with that cup. It's worth several gold coins according to the market price."

When Ignis heard that the cup was worth several gold coins, she quickly put it back on the table. But looking at her clear and sparkling eyes and her eager movements, it was probably that she wanted to steal the cup.

Deya asked curiously: "You have never been to human society?"

Ignis shook her head.

This made Deya wonder, so he asked, "Ignis, how old are you this year?"

Fortunately, the mother dragon is not like ordinary human women, and cannot be asked about age. Ignis thought about it and said hesitantly: "I should be 2,100 years old this year?"

Two thousand one hundred years old...

Although he guessed that Ignis should be quite old, Deya was still shocked by her age.

To be honest, judging from Ignis's performance, she doesn't look like a 2,100-year-old girl at all. Deya even thinks she is more like a 16 or 17-year-old young lady who is ignorant of the world.

"You have lived for two thousand one hundred years and have never entered human society?"

Deya didn't quite understand.

Silver dragons are a species of dragon that are extremely curious, relatively friendly to other races, and like to transform into humanoid creatures.

Theoretically speaking, in her 2,100 years of life, she should have accumulated a vast amount of knowledge, especially a good understanding of the living habits of various races.

Ignis shook her head and said, "For the past 1,200 years, I have been staying on the Dragon Sky Island. Because of the blessing of the Dragon God, the elders have never allowed me to leave.

Nine hundred years ago, I was finally allowed to leave the Sky Island, but as soon as I ran out happily, I was captured by the dragon lich and imprisoned.

That dragon lich was really bad. It never let me eat enough. If you hadn’t rescued me, I would have starved to death.”

Deya opened his mouth and said hesitantly: "Then what? What did you do after I left nine hundred years ago?"

Ignis stood on tiptoe with her hands behind her back, saying, "Amos is dead, and you, Deya, are missing too. I felt it was too dangerous outside, so I returned to Sky Island."

When talking about Amos' death, Ignis felt a little sad, but soon she smiled again.

"And for the past nine hundred years, you stayed on the Dragon's Sky Island and didn't go anywhere?"

"Ok!"

"Wouldn't it be boring for you to stay in one place for 900 years?"

"It's not boring at all. I can do a lot of things."

"Like what?"

"Eat, sleep, or fly back and forth around Sky Island. Oh, and some dragons always give me some human books, which are very interesting to read."

"..."

Human fiction is interesting, isn't it?

At this moment, Deya just wanted to say awesome to Ignis.

This is the life of a dragon. Two thousand one hundred years is like living on the body of a pig.

Deya suddenly thought of the dragon lich that died nine hundred years ago, as well as the information he had learned about some evil dragons while searching for information.

Those evil dragons just couldn't stand the laziness of their own people, so they took the initiative to choose to change.

From the perspective of the dragons, they are the correct reformers!
Lamia and Mavis were speechless when they heard about the dragon's life.

Even Patricia, who didn't like appearing in front of outsiders and ran to sit on Deya's shoulder, shook her head helplessly.

If it weren't for the racial characteristics of dragons, which allow them to increase their strength while sleeping, this race would have been eliminated and extinct long ago.

"Life is movement, Ignis..."

Just as Deya was about to trick the silver dragon in front of him into working for him, a crow suddenly flew to the window.

Seeing the crow landing on the window outside, Deya frowned. He raised his hand, and a wizard's hand opened the window, and the crow outside flew in.

Deya took the letter from the crow's legs, opened the folded part and read it quickly.

"Your Majesty, what are you doing?"

Deya slowly closed the letter in his hand and said thoughtfully.
