Chapter 194 There’s nothing wrong with marrying a dragon!
Deya put away the letter in his hand for the time being. Now was not the time to think about His Majesty the King.

He raised his head and looked at Ignis, whose eyes were full of curiosity, and asked again: "Ignis, what do you think?"

Silver Dragon Lady blinked her translucent eyes and asked softly, "Deya, do you want to marry me?"

Deya raised his eyebrows and did not respond to her question. Instead, he said more accurately: "I mean, are you willing to sign a contract with me to protect me for 50 years?"

As for this female silver dragon, Deya had never known whether she was playing dumb.

The contract is just an excuse. As an eight-ring or even nine-ring dragon, a normal contract will not be effective on him.

Even if Deya's teacher came, he would not be able to sign a contract with a dragon of this level.

A contract requires that if one party violates the agreement, he or she will be punished.

However, the nature of this world is that no one can punish those who are above the eighth ring, not even gods.

After all, even God himself finds it difficult to come to this world in person, let alone show his power.

Deya was not sure whether he could make Ignis stay with him willingly.

That was the dragon's habit, and given the dragon's laziness, Deya felt that Ignis might prefer to go back to her nest to sleep.

Deya is just giving it a try. If he succeeds, that would be the best. If he fails, there will be no loss.

Because in reality, the time he had spent with this giant dragon that had lived for two thousand years was actually only a month in the World's Recollection. The two sides could only be said to know each other and were barely familiar with each other.

"Let me protect you for fifty years? But Deya, you need to give me the same amount of treasure as you just gave me."

Ignis said seriously.

When Deya saw that the female dragon seemed to really have this intention, his heart skipped a beat and he nodded immediately: "No problem, I will give you the same amount of treasure!"

The treasures he had used to perform the Ten Rings spell were all spoils of war from the families of Archduke Frederick and Ferdinand.

Except for a part of it that he used for magic, the rest was rewarded by Deya to the nobles of the parliament faction.

In fact, unless Deya uses the treasury of the Kingdom of England, he really does not have such a large amount of wealth to use.

But it doesn’t matter. The capital of Susaitani will be conquered soon. At that time, the collections of the Susaitani royal family can be taken as spoils of war or used as payment.

Deya knew everything clearly in his mind and was thinking about how to get the silver dragon girl in front of him for free.

Ignis said happily: "Deya, you really want to marry me."

Deya said helplessly: "Why did you say I want to marry you?"

The other race, Deya, had no objection to taking a female dragon.

However, Deya himself did not know much about the habits of dragons.

Tigresses are such scary creatures, who knows what a female dragon looks like.

Especially since silver dragons are a group of giant dragons that value family. If he marries this female dragon, wouldn’t he have to give up the entire forest?

Deya is absolutely against getting married!
Even if the witch Lamia kept bringing up this matter intentionally or unintentionally, Deya would find excuses to change the subject.

Now I didn’t expect that another female silver dragon would come. Why do you all want to get married so much? Is there such a thing as unmarried older women in this world?

Deya was secretly complaining in his heart.

Ignis said, "But you gave me so much treasure, isn't that a proposal?"

Deya suddenly remembered what Amos had told him, there is a dowry among dragons!
He argued: "I just hired you to protect me with these treasures."

"Does that mean I have to stay by your side forever?"

"Yes."

"Isn't this a proposal?"

Ignis's translucent eyes curved into a shy smile.

Deya could no longer understand the silver dragon's way of thinking.

He sighed helplessly and said, "I'm not a good man. I will cheat even after marriage."

"It doesn't matter. Dragons are the same. Even after they get married, they will leave their bloodline and children somewhere else. For dragons, the inheritance of bloodline is very important."

Ignis didn't care at all and said it very generously.

Deya opened his mouth and seemed to be hesitant to speak. Since you said so, what else can I say?
He asked in a somewhat strange tone: "Ignis, why are you so obsessed with getting married?"

Silver Dragon Lady raised her head slightly, as if she was thinking about something. She tilted her head and said softly, "I am not obsessed with getting married. I want to marry you, Deya, because I have a good impression of you."

Her words made Deya somewhat suspicious. Could it be that the dragon god 'Ancient Spirit' had put Ignis into some kind of deep hypnosis?

Otherwise, it would be hard to explain the source of her affection for me.

But forget it, it’s better to fool him first. Deya is still very greedy for the power that this silver dragon possesses.

The main reason is that Ignis doesn't care about you having affairs outside, and even Deya can't find any excuse to refuse.

Just as Deya was about to say something, Ignis suddenly said, "But I have a request."

"You said."

Deya was a little surprised that the silver dragon lady would actually make a request.

"I can accompany you, Deya, but not here."

"here?"

"Well, according to the humans, I can't stay in this continent. This continent is a little strange. It will limit my power and make me want to escape instinctively."

Deya thought of the curse on this island, but he didn't expect that even Ignis, the silver dragon, wanted to escape.

Deya has always known that this curse is very powerful. Even his teacher, Irvin, the nine-ring wizard, did not dare to stay here for long.

After teaching Deya the basic magical theories and knowledge, the Great Undead Mage left him a pile of books and left.

This curse is more mysterious than you might imagine.

"Okay, I agree to this request."

If he wanted to be promoted to the eighth ring, he had to leave this continental island.

After unifying the two countries on this continental island, Deyaben was ready to leave here to prepare for the next promotion.

Since Ignis said so, he agreed.

"I have one more request."

Ignis said suddenly with her eyes shining.

"How many more requests do you have? Just tell us all at once."

Deya said helplessly.

Ignis shook her head: "That's all I ask. I hope you can take me to the human world to have a good look. I am very curious about the human world."

Is this Ignis's instinct as a silver dragon?

The silver dragon is a giant dragon that is curious about everything and will hide its identity while wandering in the world of humans and even other races.

Normal silver dragons live their entire lives like this. It is rare to see a silver dragon like Ignis who stays at home all the time.

Deya naturally agreed to Ignis's request. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Do you know the Nine Rings Tower?"

"Nine Rings Tower? I know. It seems to be a gathering place for human wizards. I heard that it is very mysterious. Deya, do you want to take me there?"

Ignis suddenly became interested, and her curiosity about the silver dragon made her talk nonstop.

Deya smiled and said, "Of course, I will tell the teacher in advance. I think he won't mind you going to the Nine Rings Tower to take a look."

Deya's fingers subconsciously groped for a letter in his arms, which was sent to him by his teacher not long ago.

Although the teacher has been working hard on the matter of "evil", he will communicate with Deya through letters when he has free time and ask about his studies.

He also told his teacher that Deya had been promoted to the sixth ring, so Master Irvin invited him to go to the location of the Nine Rings Tower.

In the Nine Rings Tower, there is a magic book that allows Deya to continue to advance.

The spell books that Master Irvin left for Deya could only allow Deya to advance to the sixth ring.

And that's the benefit of having a teacher and also having organization.

It is extremely difficult for an ordinary wandering wizard to get promoted. No matter how talented he is, he cannot be promoted without the support of external resources and knowledge.

And in the letter, Master Irvin reminded Deya to leave the continental island as soon as possible.

If you stay here for too long and are completely contaminated by the curse here, you will most likely lose the chance to advance to the eighth ring.

So Deya was a little anxious and just wanted to solve the problem of Susetani as soon as possible, so he went to the Nine Rings Tower in person.

He had a premonition that as Patricia's memory was fully restored and as he personally went to the Nine Rings Tower, all the secrets of this world would be exposed before his eyes.

Ignis was extremely surprised. She was full of curiosity and was very excited to be able to go to the Nine Rings Tower, which was a mysterious place for humans. She said hurriedly, "Then wait for me to go back to Sky Island. I want to share the treasures I got with other dragons. I will come to you after completing the task."

The Silver Dragon Lady thought for a moment, and suddenly a slender dragon tail grew out from behind her body. Her snow-white hand fell on the tail, and she forcefully broke off a piece of dragon scale and handed it to Deya, saying:
"This is my dragon scale. You can use it to cast a spell and notify me. Deya, you must tell me before you go to the Nine Rings Tower."

Ignis spoke anxiously, as if she was afraid that Deya was lying to her or running away without her.

After putting away the dragon scales, Deya nodded and smiled: "No problem, I will definitely inform you before I go to the Nine Rings Tower."

Deya originally wanted to directly borrow Ignis's power to resolve the issue of Susetani.

But seeing how hurried she was, Deya swallowed the words back when they came to his lips.

At this time, Susetani no longer had any difficult problems to solve, so it didn't matter whether Ignis was there or not.

"Then, I'll go back right away."

Ignis said hurriedly.

She walked quickly to the window, and suddenly thought of something. She turned her head and looked at Deya: "Don't forget the treasures you promised to give me."

Deya smiled and said, "I won't forget. I'll prepare it for you right away."

Well, it looks like we have to quickly capture Abrana and seize all the royal collections.

If the royal collection is not enough, then tear down the palace. The palace must be very valuable.

If that doesn't work, then go dig up all the royal family's ancestral tombs.

This world also has the custom of burying the dead with the dead, and the royal family in particular has always been very keen on it. I believe that there must be a lot of good things in the King’s ancestral tomb.

Sure enough, as a necromancer, the first thing he thinks of is always other people’s ancestral graves.

After getting Deya's assurance, Ignis smiled happily: "Then Deya, you must always remember the agreement with me."

After saying that, Ignis opened the window and jumped out as if she was going to commit suicide.

In the blink of an eye, a huge dragon shadow appeared outside the window. Ignis, who had regained her dragon body, flapped her four wings and left here with satisfaction.

As Ignis returned to her original appearance, the people in the Dukedom of Hudson became agitated again, frightened by the dragon's might.

The huge and terrifying black shadow gradually went away, and the agitated crowd finally calmed down.

Patricia, the puppet sitting on Deya's shoulder, put her finger on her chin and said leisurely, "I think the silver dragon's suggestion is good."

"Ok?"

Deya asked in confusion.

Patricia said: "That silver dragon has the strength of a ninth ring. If you let her stay by your side and protect you, you won't be in too much danger until you become an eighth ring.

This way, I can also gain more of my original memories as your strength improves."

Patricia is a pragmatist. To her, nothing else matters. As long as something can bring benefits to her, it is good.

And obviously, in Patricia's eyes, Ignis, the silver dragon, is an object that can be "used".

"Deya, take the initiative with her. At worst you can just marry a dragon. It's not a big deal, and it will be good for your future."

The Dark Moon Goddess suggested so.

"Nine Rings? Ignis really has become a nine-ring dragon."

Deya whispered.

Whether it is eight rings or nine rings, they are the same in Deya's eyes now. And since Ignis did not fight at all just now, Deya could not tell her true strength.

“The dragon’s power was forcibly increased, similar to the divine power bestowed upon believers by the nine righteous gods.

However, in my limited memory, the ancient spirit did not seem to grant power to his dragon believers. The most he could grant power to humans who believed in him was power.

Dragons are a species that finds it difficult to have true faith, so it is difficult for them to bear the power of gods."

Patricia looked puzzled.

Deya doesn't want to know about the affairs of God now, and he is not qualified to know them for the time being.

Instead of thinking about those gods high above, it is better to think about what is in front of you first.

Mavis suddenly said:
"I don't think it's appropriate. You and Ignis have only known each other for a short month, and the silver dragon has been pretending to be stupid. No one knows what she really thinks. Deya, you'd better be careful and don't be fooled by the silver dragon."

Lamia rarely agreed with Mavis' words, and she nodded slowly and said, "Mavis is right, Deya, don't believe what the silver dragon said, and don't think too much about getting married.

Everything still needs to be considered in the long run. Trust is very precious, so don’t give it to others easily.”

Lamia thought about her previous guess that Deya was a man who was not good at dealing with women.

The silver dragon must have realized this, so it took advantage of Deya's weakness!
I am helping Deya and not letting him be easily deceived. Everything I do is right.

The more Lamia thought about it, the more justified she felt.

Lamia and Mavis looked at each other, and the two witches nodded secretly. At this moment, they stood on the same camp and now they were the best comrades.

Deya glanced at the two witches with a half-smile, then changed the subject and said, “There’s news from Abrana that our king has agreed to surrender.

But his only condition was that I meet him in person.”

Lamia and Mavis said in unison: "There is something fishy going on here. The king wants to see you alone. There must be some conspiracy."

Deya nodded slightly: "My father and brother said so, and I think so too, but I still decided to meet him."

Lamia said anxiously: "Since you know there is a trick here, why do you still want to take the risk? The king is not worth your risk, and Abrana is not worth your risk either."

Lamia thought that Deya did not want to destroy the city of Abrana and wanted to liberate it peacefully, so he wanted to agree to the king's conditions.

But in Lamia's opinion, it didn't matter if all the people in Abrana died, because Deya didn't have any relatives or friends there anyway.

The lives of millions of people are not as important as a hair of Deya.

“LaMia, you may have misunderstood. I don’t want to meet the king for the sake of Abrana’s talents, but I am also confused about what confidence our king has to continue his conspiracy.

If my guess is correct, the king must have met someone or a force during this period and received help from the other party.

Now the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light, I need to know who this person or force is who is helping the king. "

Deya turned his head again, and because Patricia had been sitting on his shoulder, Deya's movement caused his nose to brush against the hem of the doll girl's skirt, and the tip of his nose even rubbed Patricia's calf.

A faint and strange aroma filled his nose. Deya calmed down and said, "It's not like I'm going to see our king without preparation."

Patricia smiled and said, "Well, no one knows that you are connected to my soul. You have the ability to revive. It is worth using this ability once to exchange for information about unknown enemies."

"I think so too."

Deya nodded.

The reason why he said these words to Lamia and Mavis was not because he wanted them to give him any advice, but just as a notification.

Lamia and Mavis also understand that Deya is very opinionated and will not sway from the advice of others or follow the thoughts of women. He always firmly walks on his own path.

Even if it was the wrong path, he would try it first.

The two witches sighed softly and did not try to stop him.

"Now I hope that the silver dragon can come back."

Lamia said softly.

If the nine-ring silver dragon was with Deya now, then no matter what danger there was, Deya would be able to face it calmly.

When Lamia saw Deya walk out of the room, she suddenly said:

"Mavis, although I am willing to stand on the same side as you on certain matters, please remember your identity. You are just a servant. Don't do anything that is beyond your authority."

Facing Lamia's warning, Mavis didn't take it seriously, instead she sneered and said, "The reason why I am a servant is only because of my previous resistance to Deya, so the other me forced me to have this identity.

But now that I have no resistance to him, I am no longer a servant, and even another me would agree and even support my decision."

Mavis glanced at Lamia with her emerald eyes, and her beautiful face, which was almost as beautiful as that of a mortal, showed a gentle and beautiful smile:

“What Deya needs most right now is someone strong enough to protect his safety. The Year of the Feminine will be over in less than a month.

By then, the strength of my other self will be restored, and I and my other self will be able to shoulder this responsibility. Even the silver dragon will have to stand aside.

Lamia, you are too weak, you are not even qualified to stand beside me and Deya."

After saying that, the proud elf girl held her head high and caught up with Deya's back.

Lamia bit her teeth gently.

Is this all the plan of the Lord of the White Tower?

Now, inexplicably, Saint Mavis and Witch Mavis have reconciled with each other, even though they had always been hostile to each other before.

Perhaps, this is what the Lord of the White Tower wants to see, reconciliation with himself.
