The Journey of the Rainbow Dragon.

Chapter 208 The Golden Dragon Lady About to Fall into a Sleep
Royal capital
At night in the Opal District, prosperity and tranquility coexist.

The commercial streets are brightly lit, people come and go, and it is very lively.

However, the noble residential area was extremely quiet, and the nobles fell asleep early.

In order to maintain the tranquility of the residential area, the capital specially dispatched special guards to guard it.

These guards have strict duties, and they will prohibit noisy merchants from entering, so as not to disturb the rest time of the nobles.

They stood at the entrance of the aristocratic residential area, ready to protect the peace and safety of the nobles.

The Castle of Justice is on the edge of the noble residence.

At this time, the castle was full of aromas, and it was dinner time.

"Tina, it's time for dinner—"

Shirley was wearing a brand-new silver and white cook's uniform, standing at the stairs with a silver spoon in her hand, and shouted towards the third floor.

It's rare for Miss Yinlong to have no entertainment tonight.

Usually, she would be busy working on "Hearthstone" until late at night before going home. She can be called the ultimate worker.

She came home early today and decided to come to the kitchen to help Vivienne and Setsuna prepare dinner together.

in the kitchen

Vivienne and Setsuna are busy by the stove.

They are preparing the last dish of dinner - brisket and pumpkin soup.

"In a moment, is the beef cut?"

"It'll be ready soon, only the last few bucks left"

Vivienne looked up at Ji Mo, smiled and nodded.

Vivienne helped wipe off the sweat on Setsuna's forehead with the hand of a mage, and said with a smile:
"Thank you for your hard work. We can enjoy the food after cooking this dish."

She knew that Setsuna was a very careful and hardworking person, and he always took cooking very seriously.

Wangdu Academy of Magic is in the new year holiday

All teachers and students enjoy a two-month vacation, and the new semester does not start until February of the following year.

During the period when they were not going to school, Vivienne and Carol would meditate and practice magic in the Castle of Justice every day.

They use this time to focus on improving their magical prowess.

Carroll's father - [Neptune] Duke Green occasionally visits him.

In addition to bringing a lot of rare ingredients every time, the old mage who reconciled with his daughter would also "by the way" give advice on the magic practice of his daughter and Vivienne.

The guidance of the legendary mage is rare, and the strength of Vivienne and Carol can be said to have improved by leaps and bounds during this period of time.

Carroll is now on his way to the rank of magister.

Her magic talent is already quite good, but because she was wasted for a few years, her cultivation progress was slightly delayed.

Now that she has returned to the Green family, it can almost be said that she has a steady stream of cultivation resources.

Coupled with the guidance of the legendary mage Duke Green, her water magic has made rapid progress, with different progress and breakthroughs every day.

Today, Carroll went to apply for the magister's promotion review, but he hasn't come back yet.

This means that she is undergoing rigorous testing and evaluation to determine if she is eligible for promotion to Magister.

The sumptuous meal tonight is also because of her.

Everyone is silently cheering for her, hoping that she can successfully pass the review and become a real magister.

And in the same way, the current Vivienne is also different from the past.

With the blood of the iridescent dragon, she has mastered all the 1-5 level general magic taught by the academy, as well as two powerful six-level magic: [Blazing Empowerment] and [Ice Empowerment].

[Blazing Empowerment] Allows Vivienne to control the power of the flames, condense the flames into various forms, and launch powerful flame attacks.

Hmm. Vivienne often uses it to roast sweet potatoes and cook rice recently, and it has received unanimous praise. It can be regarded as an alternative development technique.

[Ice Empowerment] gave Vivienne the ability of frost. She can summon ice, ice and snow storms, and even condense water in an instant to create a severe cold attack.

This magic can not only be used in battle, but also can be used to solve various environmental and life problems.

Such as freezing lakes, making ice drinks, etc.

In addition, Vivienne also hides excellent close combat ability, and her real combat power is infinitely close to the level of a great magister!

But now Vivienne's position is the chef of Justice Castle~~
This girl with silver hair and red pupils is currently wearing a chef's uniform and a white hair cap, busy working in the kitchen.

She divided her mind into two purposes, while carefully controlling the heat of the fireball technique in her hand, while skillfully manipulating the mage's hand to add various auxiliary materials and spices into the pot.

Vivian loves magic, but also loves the art of cooking.

As the current head chef of Justice Castle, she tries to balance work and her hobbies, preparing delicious food for the dragons and people in Justice Castle.

A rich aroma wafts from the pot.

"clang clang"

The crisp and regular sound of cutting vegetables sounded beside Vivian.

That was Setsu performing her superb sword skills.

With a sharp kitchen knife in her hand, she cut vegetables quickly and accurately, almost turning into a phantom.

Under her knife, Niu Nan was quickly cut into the perfect shape Vivian needed.

Every square piece of beef cut out by her knife is equal in size, without any difference!
Setsuna is still wearing the black and white maid outfit that Ron praised.

The fluffy blue wolf ears and tail drilled out through the special holes on the clothes and hairpins, shaking very cutely.

After learning that the real dragon owner liked this style, she ordered a hundred sets of exactly the same outfits, which she wore in rotation every day.

However, in order to prevent oil stains from splashing on her clothes while cooking, she still put on an extra light blue apron.

Doing so will keep the outfit neat while also adding cute style.

During this time, Setsuna learned a lot of cooking skills from Vivienne and the construction doll.

Setsuna has made great progress during the period of learning cooking skills with Vivienne and the construction doll.

She is now considered to have a small achievement in cooking skills, and she will never put a whole jar of salt in the dish as if it was murder like before.

(Ron was almost killed by a salt-baked chicken leg with a whole jar of salt that day, but he still managed to eat the first course Setsu made with all his discomfort.

No way, who let a little ice wolf wagging its tail keep standing next to her, her little eyes full of anticipation are so pitiful. )
The three little beauties are busy preparing a delicious dinner, and there is a busy scene in the spacious kitchen.

"Come on! Come on!"

Tina's excited voice came from upstairs.

The cooking time of the giant dragon will always be the best moment in memory.

"boom!"

The closed door was kicked open.

A small snow-white foot landed on the camel red velvet carpet, making a rustling sound.

"Oh~~~~~Tina is coming soon, don't steal it while I'm not around!"

The barefoot girl in the moon-white robe inlaid with gold staggered out of the room while shouting.

At this time, the light in the room shone on her body through the heavy curtains, causing her nightgown to slowly emit a faint golden light.

From her sleepy expression and her messy platinum-blonde hair, it can be seen that this Miss Jinlong has just woken up.

While yawning, she ran to the stairs, ready to join the ranks of cooks downstairs.

"Shirley, wait for me, I'll be right down!"

The girl just woke up, and some hoarse shouts echoed in the empty room.

While running, she gently smoothed her curly platinum hair with her hands, trying her best to look tidy.

Although Tina hasn't bathed for several days, her long hair is still extremely soft.

When passing the long-closed room next to the stairs, Tina suddenly slowed down.

Look at the silver-plated doorknob that is wiped clean by Setsuna every day.

Jin Longniang pouted unhappily.

"Big chromatic dragon!"

"Big Bad Dragon!"

"I haven't come back today!"

The more Tina thought about it, the more angry she became, and finally she stopped in front of Ron's room, put her hands on her hips, and began to recount his various crimes:

"You big liar, you don't know how to keep the promise of the real dragon, and you will come back within seven days as promised, but it's two seven days! I haven't even seen a single dragon scale."

She murmured dissatisfiedly: "Hmph! We all made an appointment to go to the Dragon Auction together...so I was ridiculed by those annoying guys at the Dragon Tavern for not having a companion."

Unlike the five-color dragons, they are all alone.

Metal dragons usually stay with their relatives and friends. For rare events like the dragon auction, everyone basically goes with their friends.

If it was before, the silver dragon Shirley, the red copper dragon Karl, and the bronze dragon Tali would definitely be willing to accompany Tina to participate in this grand event.

But now Shirley is busy with the business (information) operation of "Hearthstone Cards", and there is no time to play with her.

Karl and Tully returned to Dragon Island early because they were about to reach 50 years old, and went to the homes of their respective dragon elders to start the third sleep promotion of Longsheng.

[The elders here are not necessarily parents. All the elders of the same metal dragon welcome the children of the same clan to sleep and advance under their protection. 】

The next time they return, the two teenage metallic dragons will be teenage dragons.

Suddenly, Xiao Jinlong's eyes lit up: "By the way, Tina can curse you, a bad dragon!"

She clapped her hands together, thinking excitedly: "Hmm... what should I curse?"

[Accidentally lost gold coins]? [Go out and step on shit]? 【Food going bad immediately】? ...

"Evil" thoughts flashed through Tina's mind.

Tina couldn't help giggling at the thought of that annoying guy being "cursed" into despair.

She secretly pondered what kind of curse method she should choose, full of mischievous joy and anticipation.

Now is the fantasy time of Jinlongniang~~
"Tina, if you don't come down, we will finish our meal!"

The voice of Yinlong Xueli came from downstairs, and the growling stomach and the aroma of the food forcibly interrupted Jinlongniang's fantasy.

Tina immediately withdrew all distracting thoughts and hurried downstairs.

The sky is big and the earth is big, and eating is the biggest, so it's not too late to curse that untrustworthy rainbow dragon after eating enough.

"We're going to finish eating soon~"

Yinlong Xueli's voice sounded again, and the words were full of ridicule.

"Wow! Shirley don't want it! Save a little for Tina! I haven't eaten today!"

Tina took three steps at a time, and shouted anxiously as she quickly descended the stairs.

In fact, she was about to enter a period of deep sleep recently, but for some reason, she still insisted on not returning to Long Island, but instead increased her usual rest time.

This caused Tina to switch from three meals a day to one, and spend most of her time resting in her bedroom.

"call--"

After running down the long stairs, Tina pushed open the door of the restaurant.

A strong aroma of food rushed over, and the dazzling array of dishes dazzled Miss Jinlong.

"Wow! So many things I like to eat!"

Tina looked at the dining table with bright eyes, and her saliva was about to flow out.

The warm stone fireplace was burning vigorously by the construction maids, and the winter chill of the imperial capital did not intrude into the Castle of Justice.

At the rectangular fragrant wood dining table full of food, other people had already been seated.

The seats around the dining table, from left to right, are: Ice Wolf Setsuna, Human Vivienne, Silver Dragon Shirley, Constructed Humanoid Hermione.

four people

Four different races sit at the same table.

This combination is also extremely rare in the astral world.

But everyone tacitly did not move their chopsticks.

"Congratulations to Miss Sleepy Tina for being the last one to arrive again."

Hermione, who was sitting at the end on the right hand side, complained expressionlessly.

What kind of owner there is what kind of structure.

Hermione's current complaint skills are already approaching Ron's direction quickly.

Although there is no need to eat to construct a doll, Hermione is the first person to arrive at the restaurant and sit down every time, except for those who cook.

Hermione didn't like having people wait for her.

But she's happy to wait for others, except that the kid can "occasionally" be a little nasty about latecomers.

"Hmph! Obviously Carroll hasn't come yet, I'm not the last one!"

Tina ran to her seat in the middle, pulled out the bench and sat down straight away, while defending herself a bit.

Yinlong Shirley, who was sitting next to her, helped Tina fasten the stain-proof napkin, and explained to her with a smile:
"Miss Carroll has sent a message just now. She still has a few items in the magister's advanced assessment, and she may not be able to come back until very late."

Soft white velvet napkins were tied in front of Tina's clothes, hiding the towering mountains.

Although Tina's platinum pajamas of epic quality have their own cleaning function, there is still a sense of ritual.

"The teacher asked us to start first, without waiting for her."

Vivian also explained softly, and at the same time poured another glass of water for Tina.

She is still wearing the solid-color robe given to her by Ron today, and her long silver-white shiny hair is tied behind by a red hair rope, a bit like a sister next door.

"Oh fine."

Tina breathed a sigh of relief, and her mood gradually calmed down.

"Then let's have dinner!"

Tina picked up the chopsticks, looked at the crowd and shouted impatiently.

The dragon's stomach has protested to her several times, and if it doesn't work for it, the stomach acid will rebel.

Everyone smiled and picked up the food one after another and began to taste the food on the table.

I saw that Tina was holding a delicious roasted duck leg in her left hand, while her right hand was still holding slices of roast rock lamb in her mouth, and her eyes were searching for other delicacies.

When Miss Jinlong suddenly discovered that there was a plate of her favorite mango pudding in the center of the table, she instantly felt the dragon's stomach roaring in her stomach.

Tina felt that her stomach had been hungry for several years, so she ate this meal very deliciously, and the hands holding the vegetables and meat almost appeared afterimages.

Seeing her look like a hungry dragon rushing for food, everyone couldn't help eating two more bites.

Vivienne has eaten very little recently.

Tonight, she just picked up a small portion of rice, put down her chopsticks after tasting a bowl of pumpkin porridge, and then began to help Tina keep picking up vegetables.

Seeing that Tina has been staring at the mango pudding in the middle, but showing an expression of embarrassment for exclusive use.

Vivian smiled, got up and walked to the kitchen:
"Another mango pudding should be ready. I'll go to the kitchen to get it. This one is specially prepared for Tina~"

Hearing this, Tina's eyes lit up immediately:
"Woooooo! Woooooo~~" (Translation: Great! Vivian, you must have been sent by the dragon god to save me, right! I love you so much~~)

With her mouth full, Tina muttered her gratitude, but no one but herself could understand what she was saying.

"Have you heard? It is said that in order to complete the twelve trials issued by the king, someone hired more than a dozen master-level mercenaries into the Ibi Forest, but it has been a month, and even the figures have disappeared."

Xue Li said with a smile while tasting the white fungus and lotus seed soup gracefully.

Vivian nodded, and poured another glass of water for Tina:

"It seems that there is such a thing. Recently, there has been a lot of noise in the capital because of the trial. Everyone is desperately entrusting missions related to the trial. As a result, the prices of vegetables and monster meat on the market are quite expensive. few."

Setsuna was originally concentrating on dealing with a large plate of colorful kebabs in front of him, but he also shook his furry ears after hearing this topic:

"The master also said before leaving that the humans in the Rose Kingdom will definitely complete these trial tasks by any means in order to win the throne, but"

"But what?"

Everyone looked at Setsuna curiously.

Ron didn't seem to have talked about the Twelve Trials during the meal, and he didn't seem very interested in things related to the human country.

Instantly swallowed the last bite of colored pepper kebabs, raised his head and thought for a while and said:

"But the master also said that the next king must not be these idiots. These people are just helping out for free."

"I didn't expect him to see this aspect quite thoroughly."

Xue Li smiled unexpectedly, no one in the room knew better than her the undercurrents in the upper layers of the Rose Kingdom.

She has the information sources of the Hearthstone Tavern and the Green and Hart families, and she can almost be said to be the most well-informed person in the capital.

The current situation of Wang Xuan is actually very clear. Excluding those daydreaming mercenaries and minor nobles, there are actually only three forces that are steadily advancing the progress of the trial.

And behind these three are all members of the royal family!
The eldest prince Noah has sent a large number of private soldiers, and has completed three trial missions. It seems that he is currently gathering troops in the North Sea to fight against the legendary sea beast.

The third prince, Henry, controlled more than a dozen large mercenary groups, and secretly completed two trial tasks.

However, this person is deeply scheming, and it is said that he is still in secret contact with the Rex family who controls one of the five-color legions [Blue Legion], so we can't judge his thoughts just from the number of missions.

Also eyeing the throne is the number one red dragon knight in the kingdom, the sixth rose princess known for her beauty - Pandora.

However, the sixth princess has been very quiet recently, so far she hasn't completed a single trial, and Xue Li doesn't know what this guy is planning.

"The master is always right."

Hermione said lightly while drinking coffee.

She absolutely believed every word of Ron, and her loyalty was higher than that of a fan.

"By the way, Hermione, if you drink coffee, can your stomach digest it? You won't spit it out after eating?"

Tina said suspiciously while stuffing the chicken leg into her mouth.

Miss Jinlong knows nothing about construction.

"Stupid Tina, the master has set the food digestion function for me."

"Besides, I eat in moderation, so I won't swell my belly like you do, and lie motionless on the bed!"

Hermione retorted blankly, maintaining the posture of holding the coffee cup.

Tina's eyes widened immediately:
"Oh! When did you see it! Don't talk nonsense like that big bad dragon!"

"I see you every day"

Hermione exposed Tina's embarrassment without hesitation.

Everyone watched the bickering between the two of them and couldn't help laughing.

While enjoying delicious food, everyone exchanged recent interesting news, and joyous laughter filled the Castle of Justice.

With the help of that big plate of mango pudding, Tina finally returned to normal eating.

Holding a special white porcelain plate with a smile on her face, she dug the smooth and tender mango pudding into her mouth with a small spoon, enjoying the food and the company of her friends at the same time.

"Crack!"

Suddenly, there was a crisp sound at the door of the restaurant, and the silver-plated handle was slowly twisted.

Everyone turned their heads to look at the slowly opened door.
