Wizard starting from shoeing donkeys

Chapter 1503: Chapter 517: Search and Divination

Reef Island, underground.

”Huh?”

As Rein descended to the very bottom, his eyes lit up, for he discovered not only the large swathes of anticipated dark red, swirling lava but also several exposed metal-colored ores on the lava wall.

Evidently, these are high-temperature-resistant raw ores, as ordinary rocks would have long been melted by the lava.

Aside from that, Rein also spotted quite a few creatures, varying in length from several meters, resembling dragons with bodies akin to crocodiles but entirely dark red, with two fan-shaped fins on their backs, crawling up and down the molten lava lake.

”What are these creatures? Judging by their appearance, they seem to have some Red Dragon or Red Dragon Bloodline?”

”But from the looks of it, the dual fins on their backs should originate from some aquatic creature. After all, this is a submarine volcano.”

”With two fish fins like sails on their backs, favoring lava, they can temporarily be called Molten Double-Sailed Dragons,” Rein observed closely.

Upon the sudden appearance of the unfamiliar ’visitor’ Rein, several Molten Double-Sailed Dragons, eyes gleaming, rushed towards him, evidently considering Rein a delicacy.

”Swoosh!”

The Hardened Essence Gold in Rein’s hand instantly transformed into a thrusting sword, piercing into the head of a Molten Double-Sailed Dragon and pinning it in place.

Although the adversary was instantly slain by Rein, he could feel the toughness and resistance when piercing, as well as the instinctive spasms of the body after death, which was superior to ordinary fierce species.

”Nice strength, likely a Dragon Descendant.”

Just now, upon seeing the dragon-headed creature, Rein had this suspicion, for dragons enjoy mating and can basically produce offspring with various creatures, with their dominant genes being unparalleled.

Even though Rein instantly killed a Molten Double-Sailed Dragon, the other double-sailed dragons seemed undaunted and continued charging at Rein.

”If they are Dragon Descendants, then it’s simple.”

Rein released a slight dragon bloodline aura, and instantly, these creatures, initially intent on devouring Rein, appeared to be suppressed by the bloodline, scattering immediately and fleeing into the lava.

Rein naturally did not pursue them but found a recess in the lava-free rock wall and quickly returned above. He had to hurry to bring Menia down.

Rein approached Menia and gently called, ”Prince Menia?”

After several calls, Menia remained unresponsive.

Rein thought for a moment and said, ”Prince Menia, I need to take you to the molten lava lake below.”

After saying this, Rein stepped forward and gently picked up Menia. As soon as he touched her, he felt her body was warm, soft, and comfortable to hold.

Menia’s red wizard robe seemed to be a high-rank witch artifact, automatically retracting during her previous transformation, remaining intact, with a texture silky smooth like stockings, molding perfectly to Menia’s exquisite figure.

Additionally, with Rein’s gentle embrace, Menia let out a slight moan, her head naturally nestled under Rein’s chin, a mature woman’s scent wafting to his nose.

Simultaneously, her slender body leaned forward, her chest accentuated, and her round hips sank, brushing against Rein’s lower abdomen.

This made Rein, who had been abstinent for a while, inevitably conjure wild thoughts.

As he walked, Rein couldn’t help but take a downward glance at Menia.

One look led to another, and Rein couldn’t stop; he simply felt she was so beautiful, so familiar, and pitied her, wanting to give her a kiss.

Previously, during the fusion of consciousness, Rein unraveled a perplexity within him: why Prince Menia frequently gazed at him with a rather peculiar expression.

And why did she specifically advise him against using Multi-Headed Dragon transformation.

This was because, during her youth at the Imperial Royal Academy, Menia acquainted a young man; although not of royal descent, he possessed the rare Red Dragon Bloodline. His talent was extraordinary, disciplined rigorously, and soon, they grew fond of each other, harboring secret affection.

However, just as they were about to graduate, the young man, through years of rigorous training, truly awakened his bloodline—Multi-Headed Dragon Bloodline. Hence, he wasn’t of the Red Dragon Bloodline but rather the more unique, rare Multi-Headed Dragon Bloodline.

Most importantly, according to Dragan Empire’s royal secrets, Multi-Headed Dragons are anomalies, evil foreign dragons.

Thus, one could imagine the outcome of their unions...

Though Rein did not fully glimpse some particulars, he grasped the gist of it.

It’s precisely this painful experience that kept Menia unmarried all along; seeing Rein transform into a Two-headed Dragon in Ferdinand Forest left her in a daze, issuing a gag order.

So Rein’s gaze towards Menia carried thoughts of pity.

”As a woman who can almost be deemed the Imperial Valkyrie of the Empire, always displaying grandeur and dignified strength, but who knows her inner pain?”

Moreover, because their consciousness fused to a certain extent, Rein’s perception of Menia and vice versa held an innate deep-rooted affinity.

Coupled with the vibrant allure right before him, Rein naturally harbored some tantalizing thoughts.

With these enticing thoughts swirling in his mind, Rein once more leapt into the cavern, descending to the molten lava lake below, swiftly reaching the pre-selected spot, intending to gently set Menia down.
