Make the dragon great again

Chapter 118 Intermission
"My friend, do you have any advice for me regarding recent events?"

Damon paced back and forth a little anxiously, and asked for help from his "old friend" and "assistant in the important task of saving the mainland" William.

William, who had just heard Damon finish talking about the recent series of changes in the Behemoth Kingdom, also frowned at this time.

The royal family still wants to launch a liquidation against the southern faction. The southern faction, which has experienced a long war and the ruling class is very weak, will never be able to stop the royal family who is riding on the power of the dragon;

And once the Behemoth royal family has completed the liquidation of the southern faction, it will be difficult to guarantee whether the royal family's military strength left in the southern border will take the opportunity to launch a war of revenge against the Principality of Griffin.

This is something the Principality of Griffin does not want to see, but it may not be a bad thing for William, who is determined to replace his father and brother...

"William?"

Seeing that William didn't answer, Dimon asked a question.

William came back to his senses, rolled his eyes, pretended to be embarrassed, and said:

"This... is a bit difficult! Although I have a suggestion, it may be difficult for you to make a decision about it."

Because of the gossip that the royal family is about to liquidate the Southern Faction recently, Damon panicked a little. Seeing that William could really make a suggestion, his eyes lit up, and he asked quickly:

"Say it quickly, I am the man who is destined to save the mainland, how can I not make a decision?"

William rolled his eyes in his heart, and pretended to say:

"Ahem, first of all, although the Kingdom of Bechymos has serious internal conflicts, it is undeniable that she is still the most powerful country in the eastern part of the continent. For example, the wars in the past year or so, if it were not for the factions within the kingdom, the Principality would not have It’s possible to achieve that result.”

What William said was indeed the truth. This hastily ended war was actually just a war between the Southern Faction of the Kingdom and the Principality, and neither of the other two factions of the Kingdom participated.

Even so, the Principality gradually gained an advantage in the protracted war because of the strategic advantage created by launching the war first during the planting season and interrupting the spring plowing.

If the kingdom is united as one, then the Principality of Griffin would rather attack the mountain dwarf kingdom in the southwest and gnaw away the hard bones in this mountainous area than go to war with the Behemoth kingdom that has dominated the eastern part of the continent for tens of thousands of years...

And this is why the royal faction and the northern faction of the kingdom are not worried at all about whether they can clean up the southern faction and drive away the principality's army after the delay in admission.

——Because excluding the [Gold Earl] who has been hiding his strength before, this will not be a problem at all.

After hearing what William said, Damon kept nodding, and William went on to say:

"So, if the kingdom is stable internally, there will be no chaos in the eastern part of the mainland. On the contrary, if the kingdom is in turmoil, then no matter how stable the rest of the eastern part of the mainland is, sooner or later there will be chaos."

Damon nodded and said:
"That's true. If it wasn't for my father...cough, if it weren't for the deep conflict between the southern faction and the royal family, the war in the past year or so would not have broken out at all."

Seeing that Damon was gradually brought into a fixed thinking zone by himself, William struck while the iron was hot and continued:

"So, if we want to save the mainland from future catastrophes, stability within the kingdom is essential."

The so-called "catastrophe" is an unwarranted future event that William randomly made up according to his preferences after he first met Dimon. Obviously, Dimon "approves" this very much...

"I see! Sure enough, behind this incident, my mission is still involved... and then what?"

Dimon seriously thought about the so-called "catastrophe" and his future role in it.

William snickered in his heart, but still said solemnly on his face:

"Don't you understand yet? The internal stability and unity of the kingdom will be an essential element in fighting future catastrophes!"

Damon was at a loss at first, and then his whole body seemed to be struck by lightning, his expression changed several times in a short period of time, and he murmured:

"...The southern faction is the root of the kingdom's turmoil. The royal family's liquidation of the southern faction is a good thing for the future...and I, I need to stand on the right side, I want to stand on the opposite side of my father!"

Dimon has been completely brought into William's preset thinking zone. William stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, saying "sorrowfully":

"My friend, this is our destiny! Just like I will betray my cruel father and brother for the future of the mainland, you also need to choose between your family and your mission!"

The current Grand Duke Griffin and the first heir of the Grand Duke, the Marquis of the Golden Eagle, seem to William to be in line with the definition of "cruelty", and William has had the idea of ​​replacing them since he was a child, so when he said this There is no psychological burden at all.

But Damon is different. Although his situation among the heirs of the Duke of Volker is somewhat similar to that of William among the heirs of the Grand Duke, it is not to the extent that he hates his father and brothers deeply. It is really difficult to choose between "mission" and relatives...

But in the end, Damon, who has always been neglected among the heirs of the Duke of Volker, but was deceived by an unscrupulous dungeon master and established a strange sense of historical mission, at this "fork of history" he thought In the end, he still made the "correct" choice with grief.

"I... I understand, I will make the right choice... Is this the price of being the chosen one? No, it should be said that it is precisely because of my identity that I stand at the key to the historical turning point Click, so I will be the chosen one..."

After Damon finished speaking, he was speechless, but the whole person seemed to have experienced a spiritual baptism and completed some kind of sublimation, and even his temperament became a little higher.

On the side, William, who led the "Psychological Counseling of the Chosen Son", looked at Dimon like this, but suddenly felt a little glaring.

Originally, he just had the idea that "the war ended in a hurry and his plan could not be carried out", so he wanted to encourage the somewhat dumbfounded Damon to take the initiative to provoke and speed up the royal family's liquidation of the southern faction, so as to increase the number of kingdoms. The possibility of launching a retaliatory war against the Principality;

But after seeing the current Damon and hearing his last words, William suddenly felt that in front of this stupid guy who somehow got the approval of His Excellency Adrian, all he wanted was revenge, How despicable and ugly he is...

"...Perhaps, the so-called catastrophe is not impossible, and this guy will indeed play an important role in some major events in the future, so Lord Adrian will choose him..."

……

In the depths of the Great Mullin Forest, in the nameless dungeon.

Adrian, who was teaching the lingua franca of Fay, who had just woken up from a deep sleep, suddenly felt his nose itchy and almost sneezed.

"It's strange, since I reached the young dragon stage, my body has never had this kind of weak stress response... Could it be that someone used some kind of words or curses on me?"

Fay, who was squatting upright under the [throne], opened his mouth and asked Adrian in the unproficient Sirias Continental language:
"Shu Leng, are you away from embarrassment?"

It took Adrian two seconds to figure out what nonsense Fay was talking about, and then secretly decided that in the future, he must increase the general education of all the lower dragons in the dungeon.

"Sure enough, education and industry are the foundation of a country. My leek industry is almost complete, but the education problem inside the dungeon still needs to be solved..."

……

In this way, the [Behemoth-Griffin Border War] that broke out in the month of sowing in 3362 in the continental calendar of Sirias was finally born under the birth of a single dragon, in the winter of 3363 in the continental calendar. Before coming, it ends with a hasty ending;

And this unfinished war has laid the groundwork for many large-scale wars in the eastern part of the mainland in the near future. There are turmoil in the two countries, but a bigger vortex is brewing in the deeper layers of the social structure;
And as the "culprit" that caused things to develop to this point, a single giant dragon is in his lair, doing "investment planning" and "talent education", preparing for the future war with another fantasy species ;

At the same time, a saint whose soul belongs to a visitor from another world, like this giant dragon, finally came to the west of the [Eastern Corridor] to the Kingdom of Dragonborn with the belief of finding the truth and finding the way home. , is about to enter the stage before the performance;

And inside and outside this continent, some forces are about to find a way to bypass or even break the [continental barrier]...

The wheel of history rolls forward, but the final result is to overwhelm all the weeds and continue to roll in the original direction, or to be forced to reverse in front of certain mountains, or to be kicked by someone. The other direction is still unknown.

……

This volume is over.

To be continued, change first and then change.

I will start a new volume in the next chapter. I have to think of a good entry point. At the same time, I also want to change the scattered style of this volume. Welcome everyone to discuss with me in the book friend group. After all, I am just a part-time author. All are limited, but with brainstorming, I believe that even a writer like me can write a story worth watching!
　Thanks to 'Taiyang' for the reward of 500 points!
