Red Dragon has magic

Chapter 78: Virtual and Submissive
"Ah, what do you want from me?"

The brass dragon looked sleepily at the efreet hanging in the air, holding a huge scimitar.

He had not yet connected the fire giant in front of him with the dome castle he had renovated not long ago. He really couldn't understand what a fire giant wanted to do with him... The fire giant was holding a weapon. Could it be that he came here specifically to steal his territory, or was he coveting his treasure?
Thinking of this, the brass dragon suddenly woke up and became alert.

The Fire Giant saw the brass dragon tense up, looking ready for a fight, spewing out billowing smoke and ash, and said with a smile: "Don't be nervous, I'm not here to kill you."

"Then you have to be able to kill him too." The brass dragon said unhappily, thinking that he was an adult dragon, not a young dragon, and not everyone could mess with him. Even an adult dragon like him didn't know how to respect him. The fire giant was arrogant, and hearing about it was better than seeing it in person.

The Fire Giant laughed loudly. He was too lazy to beat around the bush and said, "I heard that you have a grudge against those two dragons... a blue dragon and a red dragon. Today I came here specifically to invite you to cooperate. You should feel honored."

The brass dragon just opened his mouth, then reacted, squinted his eyes and said: "Oh, you are the fire giant whose territory and castle were robbed by the red dragon."

"I was not careful for a moment." The fire giant was shaking with excitement, and flames burst out of his body, like an unstable flame that could explode at any time. "I really can't defeat the two dragons alone."

The brass dragon smiled secretly, because he knew the truth of the matter. He had pestered the red dragon to find out when he was helping to renovate the dome castle. The red dragon had beaten the fire giant alone, forcing it to flee in a panic.

Although he was a chatterbox, he was still a coward. He was too cowardly to laugh at the efreet. He didn't hit people in the face, otherwise they would have fought right now. However, the brass dragon had a good brain. He remained calm on the surface and said, "Where did you hear that I have a grudge against them?"

"My slaves told me that the rumor is everywhere that the blue dragons and the red dragons are teaming up to rob all the caravans passing through the desert, and you are quite a hero, trying to stop them..." said the Fire Giant. He actually felt vaguely that something was wrong, but thinking that the cooperation between metallic dragons and colorful dragons was really too outrageous, he really didn't want to miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

The brass dragon had a strange expression on his face, wondering that the fire giant in front of him, whose territory was occupied by the red dragon, actually believed the rumors spread by them.

"Since you have heard those rumors..." The brass dragon pretended to struggle, raising and lowering his front paws, and then raising and smashing his tail, until he felt that it was a bit contrived and quickly stopped, "Then you should know that I have reached an agreement with them."

"You are so pedantic. Once the conditions are met, they can be cancelled." The fire giant slowly landed in front of the brass dragon and tempted him, "You are a brass dragon, a kind metal dragon. Don't you want to drive them away and bring peace to this desert, without oppression or exploitation?"

"Drive them away, and then let you act tyrannically here, oppressing and exploiting?" the brass dragon sneered. He knew what kind of people the fire giants were like, how arrogant and vicious they were, robbers and slave owners. Blue dragons could be said to be little cuties in front of him, and red dragons... Anyway, Leon was different from other red dragons, so he felt it was acceptable.

"I swear I won't do those things... I can't do it, and you certainly won't believe it." The fire giant turned in the sky, "In that case, why don't we work together to drive them away, and then each of us fight with our own ability... If you win, I quit. If you lose, then the territory belongs to me. In addition, you can come and challenge me at any time."

The fire giant has already made up his mind. As long as he can take back the territory, he will immediately speed up the transformation of the steam lake into a lava lake, and then summon the powerful ember guards from the lava lake, and perhaps even summon the evil flame fire giant.

"You are not afraid, are you?" The fire giant provoked, and laughed loudly, "An adult dragon is actually afraid of a young dragon, a... a young dragon, it's ridiculous."

The brass dragon felt that the atmosphere was brewing and said, "I am not your comrade. I will not go along with an evil fire giant. I just went over to take a look."

The Fire Giant laughed and said, "I will come to see you again."

"I don't have much time to wait for you." The brass dragon said, "Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

"You are too impatient. But good, I am also impatient. I can't wait any longer." The fire giant hesitated for a moment. The past failures continued to affect him. "Tomorrow, at this time, if they are all here... you deal with the red dragon, and I will deal with the blue dragon."

The Fire Giant still feels a little scared when he thinks of the Red Dragon. The red dragon actually knew how to use a sword, and being invisible was useless. Especially, the red dragon's flames could actually burn him. It was simply too outrageous. If he hadn't acted quickly at that time, the Fire Giant might have been burned to death by the flames.

"I understand," the brass dragon said, "Now go away."

The Fire Giant snorted coldly and turned away.
The cloudless desert sky was particularly dazzling, but the brass dragon continued to stare at the efreet as it left. Finally, it turned into a small black dot and disappeared into the sky. It did not go back to sleep. After looking around to make sure no one was staring at it, it decisively spread its wings and flew away. …

……

Lyon has been staying in the Dome Castle these days.

Huang Tonglong completed the hard furnishings, and he had to do the rest of the soft furnishings himself, such as going to an oasis, carrying a suitable large tree, and making a desk and bookcase by himself.

He was very surprised by the sudden appearance of the brass dragon.

"You still have the energy to stay here... What are you doing?" The brass dragon was surprised to find that Leon in human form was surrounded by tools, such as saws, planes, axes, etc., and asked, "You can also do carpentry work?"

"If you don't know how to do it, just learn it well, and you will be able to do it once you learn it." Leon said. In fact, he didn't want to go through so much trouble. It was mainly because it was not easy to find a tree in the vast desert, and there was not a single carpenter in the entire oasis city. He had specially asked salamanders to make those tools.

The brass dragon snorted without comment and said, "You still have the mood to be a carpenter. Do you know that you are in great trouble?"

“Hmm?” Leon froze when he heard the brass dragon’s words. He thought for a while but could not come up with any solution. “I didn’t provoke anyone… It’s impossible that the demon lord Grazt is seeking revenge on me for Lamia.”

"Or..." Leon recalled for a moment, "We seemed to have escaped from the tomb of the ancient fallen empire, but the curse has been following us, like a shadow... If there is a curse, even if I didn't notice it, Tassela would not have been unaware of it."

"You have forgotten what you did so quickly?" said the brass dragon. "Where did this dome castle come from?"

"The Fire Giant came to see me today..." The Brass Dragon told the whole story of his encounter with the Fire Giant.

Leon jumped up after hearing this and said, “I knew he would come back.”

"It's good that he's back, it's good that he's back, so I don't have to worry about him all the time. A thief can steal for a thousand days, but you can't be on guard against thieves for a thousand days." Leon said to himself, "I must not let him get away this time."

"Thank you." Leon looked up at the brass dragon. Although he was not afraid of the fire giant, he was very satisfied with the performance of the brass dragon. He had made friends with him. "No matter what, I owe you a favor this time."

Hearing the red dragon's words, the brass dragon nodded with satisfaction.

“He actually believed those rumors…” Leon really couldn’t help laughing, “He actually asked you to deal with us, not knowing that you are on our side.”

"I am not on your side." The brass dragon reminded, "I will not help the fire giants to deal with you, but you don't want me to help you either."

Leon now knew how to deal with the brass dragon, and said, "Don't you like that brass-decorated mirror very much? It's okay to give it to you."

The brass dragon was dumbfounded. How could one test a cadre...

"The fire giant can teleport to another dimension, which is a problem." Leon touched his forehead.

"Go find the blue dragon," the brass dragon reminded, "she will definitely know what to do."
