Chapter 22 (2/2)
Even though Liszt had taken out a wheat bran cookie to feed it, but it still did not show any intion is an adult horse If it is to be kept as a war-horse, then it would be better to geld it so as to avoid weight loss because of estrous” Said Marcus
“Geld it?” Liszt waved his hand, “That will not do I have decided to use it as a stallion in Flower Town It would be a huge loss if such an extraordinary steed could not have offsprings”
“To use it as a stallion?” Marcus nodded in approval
Even though he did not know that Blackdragon was a dragonhorse, but he still could see that it was extraordinary To geld it would indeed be a pity
Without showing the slightest intention of escaping its calaon ate the wheat bran cookie It had already regained its previous feeling of contentment
Occasionally, it would nibble the alfalfa on the ground
Gort wanted to step forward to stroke it, but was scared back by a snort of Blackdragon's He had no choice but to change the subject: “Where did Blackdragon coe?”
“Perhaps there are other Blackdragon Horses… There are wild horses on the island Coe” Marcus conjectured
Horses generally lived in grasslands
Coral Island did not have enough grassland to sustain wild horses; the natural breeding of wild horses was not very realistic
“Maybe it had wandered over from another place, or it was a horse raised by the island's residents that had turned wild In short, it could not have coht be other Blackdragon Horses coht be a Blackdragon Horse herd”
“That would be great”
Liszt had also his doubts
He did not knohether Blackdragon had lived on this land or it had been created by so behind the smoke missions He preferred it to have lived on this land instead of being just created, with the ser mechanism
As for the mystery behind the smoke missions, it temporarily could not be unraveled
It could only be postponed and be slowly answered some time in the future
He looked at the beautifulabout the uncultivated land outside the castle: “Teacher Gort, say, how about we plant alfalfa on the uncultivated land surrounding the castle? By then, we could establish a horse field outside the castle and raise a Blackdragon Horse herd”
“Oh, it should be feasible We ht as well try it”
“Then, I will let you take care of it, Teacher Gort”
……
Liszt rode Blackdragon back to the castle
Gort and Marcus were also intending to go back On the way, Gort suddenly asked: “Marcus, you now address Liszt by sir?”
“I do”
“To make up your mind so quickly, it is unlike the usual you”
“I do not have many choices, Mr Gort” Marcus looked into the distance, at the radiant little castle bathed in the sunshi+ne, “Besides, do you not often say that he has the demeanor of Sir Count? I do not believe that he would seclude himself in Flower Town, this desolate place, forever”
“Perhaps” Gort could not dispute it
