A Dragon against the Whole World

Chapter 816: Chapter 446: The Purple Crystal Dragon’s Way of Secret Observation, Fortunes Arrive

A week has passed since Ithelamas settled into the Red Flame Royal City.

During this period, most of the Giant Dragons in the Ola Kingdom’s core circle have learned of the arrival of their elderly kin.

Outside the Giant Dragon group, the news of his existence hasn’t spread, and to the vast majority of the subjects, he’s still a secret presence unknown to the world.

This Legendary Giant Dragon, awakened from his slumber, has shown a strong interest in the kingdom established by the Red Iron Dragon.

He changes form, sometimes transforming into a graceful human scholar, other times into other unremarkable creatures, leisurely strolling through the streets and alleys of Red Flame Royal City, observing the daily operations of the Royal City.

Galos hasn’t placed any restrictions on Ithelamas’ activities nor dispatched subordinates to track or monitor him.

He had granted this visiting Legendary kin full freedom.

After all, if the other party intended to do anything bad, his subordinates wouldn’t be able to stop him, so it’s better to be more open-minded.

At this moment, the Purple Crystal Dragon is not within the Royal City area.

Galos does not feel worried.

Ithelamas is an undeniably old Dragon and has successfully surpassed the old-age slumber phase.

The wisdom and disposition he has accumulated over the long years are enough to control the instincts within the Dragon Race bloodline.

Besides, Galos had previously dealt with Old Golden Dragon Ovis.

Though Ovis often appeared flamboyant in his words and deeds in daily life, the reliability and responsibility he exhibited at truly crucial moments left a good impression on Galos.

This somewhat influenced Galos.

He subconsciously felt that those Dragons who had lived through long years and entered their senior years and beyond, were more trustworthy in terms of maturity and behavioral reliability compared to those youthful and energetic Giant Dragons.

He speculated:

Ithelamas might not be in the Royal City right now; perhaps he’s gone to look for or observe his descendants scattered here.

”Ennos, have you met your father?”

Galos contacted the Purple Crystal Dragon Lion via messaging.

Besides, he had already informed the other party of Ithelamas’ basic situation.

”Reporting to His Majesty, we haven’t formally met yet.”

”He might be... quietly observing my every move from the shadows.”

Ennos responded with a mix of nervousness and anticipation.

The Gemstone Dragon clan is renowned for their neutrality, typically disliking involvement in mundane disputes, preferring a life away from disturbances.

Then the question arises.

In their long lives, how do they typically entertain themselves, or what unique interests do they have?

The answers are recorded in the Dragon’s Legacy.

Most Gemstone Dragons possess an instinctive ”observer” habit.

They are passionate about concealing themselves in an unknown corner, suppressing their presence, and then quietly observing the natural development of a particular event or a series of events over a long period.

It might be the love and hate between individual intelligent creatures;

It could be the grand strategic wars and negotiations between national forces;

Or it might be the legendary rise of a certain hero’s journey;

... Different individual Gemstone Dragons often have unique preferences for their objects of observation.

”Your Majesty, please rest assured.”

Ennos’ voice brought Galos’ thoughts back, ”Under his watchful eye, I will present the best state to win his favor, awaken the fatherly love in this old Dragon’s heart, and make him more willing to stay permanently in the Ola Kingdom.”

He said excitedly.

This is not only for the kingdom’s interest, to fulfill His Majesty’s expectations, but also for himself.

He had been stuck at level 20 for some time. Though carrying Dragon bloodline, it’s hardly as innate and extraordinary as a pure-blooded True Dragon, and whether he can safely breakthrough to the Legendary Realm remains unknown.

His convenient Dragon Father might pull him up.

Galos was about to compliment him with a few words of encouragement.

At this moment, Phoenix Angela sent an urgent message.

Galos was silent for a few seconds.

Understanding the situation, he replied to the Phoenix’s report before continuing to speak to the Purple Crystal Dragon Lion: ”Your thoughts and determination are correct.”

”However, as Ithelamas is not currently near your territory, you don’t need to be overly tense and can be more natural.”

Ennos was visibly startled upon hearing this.

After regaining his composure, he said, ”Even so, I cannot relax in the slightest, and must always maintain the best state.”

”Who knows if my Dragon father might suddenly appear at some unexpected moment, quietly watching?”

Within his territory on the other end of the communication, the Purple Crystal Dragon Lion raised his majestic head, puffed out his strong chest, and his gaze became deep and sharp, creating an image of wisdom and strength.

He had once deliberately maintained silence to heighten his authority, successfully portraying a profound and aloof character.

To the experienced Ennos, assuming a calm and dignified posture is easily accomplished.

After a while, the sun rose higher.

Time quietly arrived at noon.

The blazing sun shone brightly, pouring its radiant light from the sky, gilding the Dragon Ridge Mountain Range in a dazzling layer of gold foil.

Red Iron Dragon Emperor, amidst intense training in the Dragon Ridge Back Mountain, bathed in the scorching brilliance.

The air around him shimmered with heat waves due to the high temperature, and the battle scar patterns covering his body seemed faintly glowing under direct sunlight, his Dragon Scales were rendered invincible, reflecting a metallic sheen.

At this moment, a clear bird cry from the distant sky broke the mountain’s silence.
