1261 Giant Iguana 1 (2/2)
”It won't be troublesome if we fly over there, right?” Garen was concerned about the others.
”No, although the dependent relationship has lightened recently during these past few years, it's unlikely for them to attack us spontaneously,” said Boris logically. He was clearly emulating the attitude of a certain Adult Dragon.
They flew past the Thunder Snake Clan from above. Garen observed the light green phosphorescent vortex. There were numerous moth-like insects inside the vortex that were blinking with light. Light green fluorescence was spreading all over their entire bodies faintly. This phosphorescent vortex was clearly created by these light green moths.
”Come and look quickly. It's Beyber and the others!” Leona suddenly yelled while pointing towards the distant sky.
”Beyber? Where? I'll definitely give him a good show after coming out this time!” The moment he heard this name, Boris who was pretending to be calm all this while flared up. He glanced over fiercely in the direction where Leona was pointing before actually seeing a little team of Dragon Whelps that were similarly flying past the borders of the Thunder Snake mountain now.
The fellow that was leading these few Dragon Whelps was named Beyber and he was always fighting with Boris. Neither of them was afraid of the other because they both belonged to the Elder's bloodline. However, Boris was still slightly weaker in the end because he was beaten up more frequently.
There was a congenital black birthmark patch on Beyber's right wing. Hence, he was very easily recognizable. He also had an extremely muscular physique.
He had obviously noticed Boris and the others here. He grinned while charging over from afar while faintly harboring some malicious intentions.
”That guy! He's provoking me!!” Boris burned with rage and positioned himself as if he was about to rush over. However, he was immediately held back tightly by Saszt.
”Don't, Boris! The swelling on your backside had just subsided so you can't get hurt again! Our quest will be delayed if you get injured again now!” Saszt clearly did not know what to say to save Boris's face.
”Saszt!! When have I been unable to defeat that bastard?!”
Boris's flushed suddenly. This was the first time Garen discovered the states of White Dragons when they blushed.
”It was the day before. You were single-handedly beaten up by Beyber. I saw it with my own eyes. I'm doing this for your own good!!” There was a loyal expression on Saszt's face while he hugged him closely without loosening his claws at all.
Oh!
When he saw Leona's surprised gaze that was tinged with faint disdain, Boris was itching to find a crack to burrow through. Saszt's strength was indeed great. Otherwise, there would have been nothing that he could have said to get this idiot to cooperate with him!
However, it was too late to regret it now.
”Don't go and suffer another beating! Boris!!” Saszt yelled. Boris and the other dragons who were far away heard him as well. They could not help but roar with laughter.
”Pfft…” Leona could not stop herself from laughing either.
Garen shook his head silently when he saw the face of Boris the dragon that was flushed to the point where it turned purple. Boris knew that the image of himself in Leona's heart was already completely damaged.
However, he had searched for this partner and encountered him on his own.
Boris raised his head and let out a drawn-out cry. He watched Beyber and the other dragons fly away into the distance while guffawing. As his own strength was insufficient to break free from Saszt, he could only roar madly in grief.
”Let's go. Stop roaring,” urged Garen.
”That's right. If there's something wrong, we'll go to the Hunting Area and settle it with them there!” Leona could not help but cheer Boris up.
The group of dragons experienced a lot of difficulty in calming down Boris' emotions after encountering this minor incident. Boris scolded Saszt angrily before continuing to fly towards the Hunting Area listlessly.
Along the way, they passed through a little grey human campsite that was below them. Numerous human warriors walked in and out of the tents at times and they could even occasionally see a Wizard walking out of the tents.
”Those are the powerhouses of the Deladia Empire's alliance. They've already united with our White Dragon Clan to form an alliance of Wizards.”
Boris was the one who explained. Since Garen did not laugh at him earlier, he had revised his impression of him and viewed him in a much better light now.
”Powerhouses of the alliance? How was the alliance act formed?” asked Garen.
”Rumor has it that it was formed through the dragon race's Alliance Oath Spell. They pay us compensation so we respond when they summon us and come forward to support them. These Summoning Spells are unique. However, they're only suitable for Adult White Dragons. We are currently not qualified yet,” Boris shook his head.
”Are these summon-type spells? I've heard that summon-type spells can be used to summon doors to other worlds where we can hunt down powerful creatures from different space-time dimensions to either enslave or engage in combat with them, is that so?” Garen did not have the information from the relevant books. Instead, he could faintly remember these contents from his inherited memories.
”Yes, it's like that. Spells like these are listed in the stack of books that my grandfather collected. However, certain editions are incomplete. Since they weren't very useful towards us White Dragons, no one really valued them highly. Many of these books were accidentally ruined because they weren't preserved or taken care of properly,” said Leona regretfully. ”Why? Do you want to learn Summoning Spells, Garen? If you wanted to do that, we might as well enslave the subordinate Earth Dragons and Dragon Beasts. We'd probably need at least Level Five or Level Six Summoning Spells to summon creatures like Dragon Beasts. It wouldn't be that useful.”
”That's true as well,” Garen nodded understandably. Actually, he was merely planning to try and see if he could open his initial main door to the Space-Time Universe. However, when he thought about the terrifyingly powerful beings that existed when he Transmigrated to this world, he knew in his heart that this was highly unlikely. The desire for mere advanced level Spellcrafting to achieve such a high degree was a wild fantasy indeed.
”My grandfather has dispatched two Dragon Guards to assist Deladia with defending the Wizard Tower. He can probably obtain complete Spellcrafting information in exchange. However, it will probably be very expensive. If you want it, you can go and contact those two 'big brother' Dragon Guards,” said Leona quietly.
”Yes, I know. Thank you very much,” Garen made a mental note.
