Chapter 63

His majesty the pope who spreads the holy light (6)

Translated by: Niladri

_____________Goblins, like dragons, haven’t been seen on the mainland for a long time. If it hadn’t been for the dwarf miners insisting that they had seen goblins, the people on the mainland would have thought that these little green-skinned monsters were extinct.

But this was not a surprise. Goblins ceased to associate with other races since the age of Gods. It was said that they had built a huge underground kingdom under the Stonehenge Mountains, but these were all legends and no one had ever seen them.

‘Goblins have disappeared for a long time. How can there be goblin products in Ionas’ collection?’ If Lu Heng had not seen the goblin’s emblem in the Pope’s records, he would not have recognized that the strange thing came from the hands of those little green-skinned monsters.

If you want an answer to this question, you can only ask the owner of this thing. Lu Heng stepped out of the temple and saw a golden hill lying at the gate of the temple. The back of the hill continued to rise and fall periodically.

As soon as Lu Heng saw this, he knew that the golden dragon was asleep again. Lu Heng took out a purple-red fruit and crushed it near the nostrils of the dragon. This was what Ionas had given him. He said that the dragon people hated the taste of the fruit very much. If they could smell it, they would wake up even from their deepest sleep.

Seeing the dragon’s nostrils move, Lu Heng retreated to the side. A huge sneeze blew away several leaves on one side. The effect of the fruit was immediate, and the sleeping dragon opened its eyes after sneezing. He looked at Lu Heng and turned into a human figure.

“Have you finished praying? Great. I can finally go back to sleep.”

So what did you do just now? Lu Heng spit in his heart. The dragon is really lazy. He seemed to have nothing else to do except sleep all day. He collected treasures was just to make a comfortable bed. But looking at Ionas rubbing his nose non-stop, he asked, “Are you sick?”

“Well,” Ionas rubbed his nose red, “the smell of that fruit is a little too stimulating for us Dragon race.”

“Then why give me this fruit?” Lu Heng could not help asking him this question when he saw his uncomfortable appearance.

“I’m worried about the kind of accident that happened a few days ago. You know, it’s hard to wake up when the Dragons fall asleep.”

“I can use Holy Light as I did last time.” Lu Heng said.

“Esmond is dead, and your power of light should be carefully conserved. Is there anything else you want to do? If not, let’s go back to sleep. Ionas didn’t care about the pungent smell of his nose pouring into his eyes. He just wanted to go back to his treasure pile and sleep with his treasure in his arms.

Lu Heng’s heart was moved. He preferred to be hurt or be uncomfortable rather than let him suffer even a bit. He was very familiar with this.

“I’m sorry, but I have something else I need your help with.” Seeing Ionas’s eyes being a little red, Lu Heng’s fingers gave off white luminescence, and he gently touched Ionas’nose.

Immediately Ionas felt the pain disappear. “You’re really troublesome. But it doesn’t matter. The Great Dragon Lord doesn’t mind this little trouble.”

Having been accustomed to the dragon’s manner of speech, Lu Heng knew that he had agreed, and took out the goblin product there: “Where did this box come from, please tell me?”

Ionas took it over for a long time. He thought it was strange how he could collect this kind of thing. It was black and not shining at all. This was not at all something worthy to catch the dragon lord’s eyes. He might have casually put it in his treasure house without carefully examining it. It was probably hidden in that pile of things.

“It was found in the ruins,” Ionas said. “At that time, several dragons found the ruins together on Dragon Island and started a bloodbath in order to compete for this pile of things. For the sake of maintaining peace among Dragons, I beat them all up, and then kept the pile of things in my treasure house.”

Lu Heng was shocked by the uncanny and crude way in which the Lord of dragons handled the dispute. He was silent for a moment. Then he said, “I want to see the relics.”

At the very edge of Dragon Island, the ruins of a temple stood on it. When Dragon Island was separated from the mainland, the temple was just on the demarcation line. So, only half of the temple was raised up with Dragon Island. The other half remained on the ground.

Over the past ten thousand years, under the erosion of time, this half of the temple has been occupied by plants. However, the temple was constructed with the strongest stone. The half temple hasn’t collapsed and the structure was quite stable. Only the beautiful sculptures on the pillars described the splendor of the temple.

A giant Golden Dragon flew from the distance and then landed in the open space in front of the temple. As soon as it landed on the ground, the dragon’s claws, carefully curled up on its chest, opened and from it jumped down a figure in a priest’s robe.
