Chapter 76.2 - Protagonist: Do you have someone you like? (2/2)
Troglodyte Fighter (riding a wyvern): Boss, we want to be your friends ~
Silly, cute person: …
Thump, the whole army was wiped out.
…. On that day the troglodyte finally learned their lesson after they were trampled by the terrified beast mounts twice, humiliatingly killed by some silly, cute person.
To sum it all up, because the beast mounts were terrified of a silly, cute person, the defenders were less pressured by the invading lizard creatures and were able to spare a few more people to search for treasures. Enoch has a natural gift for sniffing out treasure and can find the lizard creature’s lairs. Thus, the poor thief didn’t join the fighting and was made to run back and forth, carrying the treasures with him until he was dog-tired.
The most time-consuming thing about the simulation was the way they had to find the treasure then fight the troglodytes for it and, finally, bring it back with them to their lair.
Rachel and Thunder Regiment members had to spend half a day to draw a teleportation array since relying on the human way of chanting a teleportation spell was not efficient.
Du Ze could not help but wonder why Xiu did not turn into his silver dragon form that has spatial magic. No doubt the Moe Lord has already thought of this, too, but he did still did not choose to change his form.
Is it because of what happened when he was in his dragon form?
“Why do you not use your dragon form?”
Hearing Du Ze’s question, Xiu ran his fingers across the back of Du Ze’s neck.
“I cannot restrain my dragon form.” Xiu smiled and said: “I won’t be able to stop myself from grabbing you, taking you to a place where no one can find you, and then mercilessly enjoying you.”
The Moe Lord’s tone was light and it sounded like a joke but Du Ze knew that he was quite serious. After that the silly, cute reader dared not bring this matter up again to Xiu.
The treasure in the lair grew at a rate visible to the naked eye. Du Ze discovered that the cave could endlessly expand and could never be filled up, like the dragon’s endless greed for more. In the vast majority of legends, the dragons always like to collect treasures, amassing piles of coins. Dragons can never have enough. They love to count their coins and bask in the light of their treasure.
Yi Ye Zhi Qiu wrote: The Dragons gave away their self-control, received durability.
They do not restrain their desires, for they are strong enough to take whatever they want, so strong that no one can steal from their treasure hoard.
Just like they are now.
Guarding the hoard and seizing more treasures.
As the pile of treasure grew ever larger, the first dragon appeared the next day. It was a white dragon who suddenly swooped down from a high place and used its ice breath on the black dragon. Du Ze was nearly frozen but the fire phoenix chirped and veil of fire covered Du Ze’s body, driving away the cold.
After the initial shock, the group of defenders calmed down. The demon sisters took the opportunity to clear out the lizard creatures that were attacking the lair. Xiu rode the black dragon and flew up to battle the white dragon. Compared to the other dragons, the white dragon wasn’t very intelligent. Apart from its ice breath, it only knew how to use its body to fight savagely. It didn’t take Xiu and Muir long to defeat the white dragon.
When the white dragon died, the troglodytes disappeared into thin air. This was the beginning. Their ever-growing treasure attracted more and more dragons. The emerald dragon sprayed out a green mist. The sapphire dragon used its sonic attack. Glittering, shining crystal dragons … A variety of dragons came and attacked.

Translator’s Notes:
Lol, even the lizard creatures are acting cute! I can’t believe Du Ze won some of the melee battles because he scared the mounts too much, hahaha.
I squealed like a fangirl when Xiu “jokingly” explained why he didn’t change into his dragon form. *fans herself* Hot! Too bad Xiu feels he has to hold himself back since they are in the middle of a trial. Otherwise, it would be “enjoying my treasure” time.
What do you think the next *cough* special *cough* harmonious health education chapter will contain?
