A Dragon against the Whole World

Chapter 797: Chapter 441: The True Sight Eye, a New Evolutionary Path, and the Failed Prophecy (3)

Margarita heard the words, the elegant smile on her face remained unchanged, but her heart couldn’t help but slightly tense.

Prophesying for a powerful Legendary Giant Dragon, a Monarch with a deep weight of destiny, is not a simple or easy task, even accompanied by the risk of backlash.

On the other hand, it’s an opportunity to further deepen mutual connection and trust.

After a brief consideration, she made her decision.

”The Emperor commands, I shall do my utmost to try.”

She elegantly bowed in response, then her expression became solemn and focused, entering into another state.

The Star Speaker’s hands gathered in front of her chest, as if holding an invisible star.

Her eyes slowly closed, and she began to chant obscure incantations.

As her chants echoed in the hall, specks of light resembling starlight emerged from between her gathered hands, scattering out.

Buzz—!

Instantly, the magnificent hall’s ceiling seemed to project an image of a slowly rotating starry wonder.

Centered on the Red Iron Dragon Emperor seated on the throne, stars were connected by invisible lines, outlining a complex network, the consciousness of Astrologer Margarita cautiously extending along these lines representing destiny possibilities, exploring towards the future’s temporal dimension...

However, at the next moment, Margarita’s expression suddenly changed.

What she ”saw” was neither clear nor fragmented and complex future scenes as expected.

A heavy fog shrouded Galos completely, making it impossible for her to glimpse any definite future.

At the same time, one by one, stars representing possibilities dimmed and went out, and those lines connecting the future destiny broke like snapping strings, continuously dissipating.

”Hmm...”

Margarita let out a painful groan, her body uncontrollably swayed slightly, forcibly breaking off the prophecy spell.

The starry wonder above the hall also dissipated along.

She opened her eyes, fine beads of sweat seeping from her forehead, her breath appearing somewhat disturbed.

”I apologize, Your Majesty... I’m unable to predict your future.”

She said, pale-faced.

The Red Iron Dragon was slightly surprised.

He pondered for a moment and asked, ”An unforeseeable future... What are the usual possible reasons behind this?”

Star Speaker Margarita thought for a moment, calming the surging magic power within her, cautiously responded: ”There are two major possibilities.”

”Firstly, your destiny’s weight is too high, the essence of life and future possibilities are too complex and grand, beyond the current observational limits of my prophecy ability.”

”Secondly, there may exist a stronger being who has intervened in advance, obscuring future traces related to you.”

The Red Iron Dragon Emperor remained silent for a few seconds, then slowly said: ”Thank you for your attempt, Miss Star Speaker.”

”This result itself is a very important piece of information to me.”

Margarita looked deeply at Galos.

This Red Iron Dragon Emperor’s unfathomable nature and uniqueness exceeded her previous assessments and imaginations.

She adjusted her breathing, made another elegant bow, and said: ”It is my honor to serve you.”

”It seems, Your Majesty’s path is destined to be created by your own hands, rather than determined by the stars.”

Not long after, Legendary Mage Margarita left the Ola Kingdom, carrying Joy of Ashes.

The Legendary Artifact, Eye of True Sight, was left behind, about to become the key for Galos to attempt a new round of adaptive evolution, completely remedying his perception shortcomings.

Outside the hall, snowflakes quietly fell, covering the increasingly majestic Dragon City.

After a period, the Theo Kingdom, under pressure from the continuous loss of creatures and population resources within its territory, finally couldn’t hold back and officially sent a diplomatic envoy to the Ola Kingdom, requesting the return of intelligent creatures and magical beasts originating from Theo Kingdom’s borders.

Return the population resources already in their mouths?

This request was naturally rejected by the Ola Kingdom.

Afterwards, Theo Kingdom did not mention this matter again.

However, as the Ola Kingdom accelerated the establishment and enhancement of its national border defenses, the Theo Kingdom was also continuously strengthening its military power in the border areas, sending additional troops.

The movements were significant, with no intention to hide them.

Simultaneously, to curb the continued outflow of its biological and population resources, the Theo Kingdom spared no expense, erecting tall walls on the long borderlines adjoining the wilderness.

The borderlines between the two kingdoms winded and extended long, and the terrain was complex.

Despite the extreme defensive measures taken by the Theo Kingdom, there were still times when some resolute individuals or intelligent creatures managed to overcome these obstacles and successfully reach their hope destination.

However, objectively speaking, their measures effectively curbed large-scale population loss.

Influenced by this event, the underlying tension between the Ola Kingdom and the Theo Kingdom surfaced.

At the location of the long-lasting borderlines between the two countries, small, frequent clashes and conflicts began, the gunpowder scent in border areas grew thicker.

Yet, whether it be the Red Iron Dragon Emperor of the High Mountain Royal Court or the King and his aides in the West Theo Royal Capital.

The upper echelons of both sides were well aware that waging war at the current time point provided no tangible benefits to either party.

One side’s kingdom was newly founded, industries burgeoning, urgently needing time and a stable environment for growth and consolidation; the other side had just ended a massive civil war some time ago, greatly depleted, requiring rest and replenishment, also needing a stable period for recovery.

If no major unforeseen events occurred, the two kingdoms would maintain necessary restraint, limiting the conflict to a small scale.

The outbreak of all-out war, at present, seemed highly unlikely.

While guarding against Theo Kingdom, the Red Iron Dragon’s gaze turned toward the Eternal Frost Tundra.
