Crossing the true dragon realm, and you call me Little Locke?

"How did you become like this?"

Shuoyang looked her over; although she was slender, she had delicate features.

But in terms of both temperament and physical characteristics, he is a pure "manly" female young copper dragon, Melanthers.

He was somewhat puzzled, because apart from those silver dragons and singing dragons who liked to cross-dress.

Dragons typically do not change their gender when they transform.

So he was quite curious as to why Melanthers had to become a man.

When faced with his question, Melanthers' answer was simple and unexpected.

She first changed her form, transforming into a half-elf girl with a similar appearance.

Then, with a drooping face, he replied reluctantly, "When your biological father is a lecherous old dragon who is keen on mating with female humanoids."

"You will naturally be very careful in choosing your transformation form."

"Uh~," Shuoyang said somewhat awkwardly.

He scratched his beard, turned his face away, and said, "Sorry."

He remembered that Melanthus's father, Galadaros Sunset Flame, was also a rather peculiar dragon.

This male bronze dragon has been in existence since adulthood.

This led to a dragon hobby that would be a dream for humans but quite bizarre for dragons—building a harem.

Unlike Ramalantez, who adopted homeless orphans as if they were his own children.

Through gradual development, it eventually became the Scale Eye Shipping Company it is today.

From the very beginning, Galadaros formed an all-female mercenary group called "Galladran".

All the members of this mercenary group are quite beautiful female adventurers.

Galadaroth was their patron, protector, leader, mount, uncle, and also their secret lover.

From adulthood to middle age, and then from middle age to old age.

Galadaroth tirelessly raised generation after generation of Galadran mercenaries on Purple Rock.

The despicable things he has done include, but are not limited to, ...

They murdered the husbands or lovers of the female members of the troupe to seize their wealth and wives and daughters.

Concealing his identity, he transforms into a young and handsome male adventurer.

He would seduce the young female members who saw him as a father, establish forbidden intimate relationships with them, and become their secret lover.

He has such a perverted and outrageous old father.

Melanthers's caution was naturally understandable.

While Shuoyang could understand her tragic family background, Serafina saw it as a point of attack to gain the upper hand.

She saw that Shuoyang had no intention of harming the fledgling.

Emboldened, she couldn't help but mock Melanthers, saying, "Indeed, the dragon's reputation is formidable."

"It's all because of you chaotic, disorganized swindlers and thieves that things have been ruined."

"You red-scaled clowns are the least responsible for your cubs, even worse than those red-skinned and white-skinned barbarians."

"You still have the nerve to claim kinship with us Blue Dragons? Where did you come from...?"

"That's still better than you slave owners and slaves!"

Melances didn't tolerate her and immediately retorted.

So they immediately started arguing again.

Melanthus said that the blue dragons had no concept of family ties, and that they were merely enslaving their offspring and objectifying them as property.

Serafina cursed the copper dragon for giving birth to the dragon but not raising it, saying that after the parents finished having their fun, they just buried the dragon egg somewhere and then left it there.

They're not even as intelligent as those low-intelligence beasts like the White Dragon. At least the White Dragon waits for the dragon eggs to hatch and raises the cubs to adulthood before driving them out of the nest.

Melanthers argued that their copper dragons were giving their young the freedom to choose.

Their hatching grounds are absolutely safe, and after hatching, the copper dragon parents will send their retinues to take care of the cubs.

In contrast, Blue Dragon's system of meritocracy, where the strong prey on the weak, is quite different.

That's what will directly kill the future of the cubs.

Blue dragon cubs have no right to choose; they are merely appendages and tools of the blue dragon chieftain.

One of them leans towards chaotic good, while the other leans towards orderly evil.

The more they argue, the more intense it gets; the more they curse, the more enthusiastic they become.

In the end, Serafina couldn't out-argue Melances, who was a bard by trade, so she simply resorted to violence.

Because Adela's bedroom was too small, and Shuoyang's big head took up a lot of space.

The two of them could only fight in humanoid form and were unable to cast spells.

Without using magic, Serafina is a sorcerer and Melanthus is a bard.

Naturally, she could only slap people, grab their hair, and tear their clothes like an ordinary shrew, and fight fiercely.

Shuoyang, of course, found it fascinating.

He was afraid of getting his face covered in flying books and ink, so he even peeked out from under the door and stared intently.

This helps me to ease my mood.

Let go of the frustration and confusion that has been building up inside me because of Lena.

While he was enjoying the spectacle, the room's owner, Adela, was completely bewildered.

She led a group of baby dragons and a giant skull dragon, anxiously avoiding the "war" between the two female dragons.

Finally, the wooden chess pieces from Shuoyang, which she had carefully crafted and hidden away.

Seraphine accidentally threw him off the chessboard and grabbed him, then hurled him at Melanthus, who dodged it, smashing him to pieces.

Adela finally snapped, shouting, "Enough!"

"Get out of here, all of you."

As she spoke, she immediately cast a spell, causing a host of thorny vines to grow and grow in her bedroom.

They grabbed Melances and Serafina, who were disheveled.

He threw her out of the bedroom and slapped her across Shuoyang's face with a "smack".

Then, with vines and thorns intertwining, she used magic to seal the door to the room, which had never been closed for almost a year.

"Did you throw a tantrum?"

Shuoyang shook his head, shaking off the two female dragons that were stuck to his face.

Looking at the thorny vines blocking the doorway, he was somewhat puzzled.

Serafina, who was suddenly thrown out, was furious.

She immediately revealed her true form, intending to spit out a mouthful of thorns and settle scores with that lowly half-dragon.

But Shuoyang only gave her a cold glance.

This young blue dragon, who was extremely adept at assessing the situation, immediately backed down and pretended to be honest.

"There's a nice cave on Horn Peak to the north, and it's connected to my lair by an underground passage."

Shuoyang arranged for her, saying, "You can stay there for now!"

Having said that, he created two branch-and-leaf source crystals and tossed one to Serafina.

State the price: "This crystal is worth 100,000 gold dragons and can give birth to spirit companions that obey your commands and have the corresponding attributes."

"If you want it, you can pay in installments, ten installments over one hundred years, with compound interest of one-thousandth per year."

"An elven familiar?"

Serafina took the crystal, her eyes lighting up.

She pointed to the Vulcan statue beside her and asked, "Is it like this?"

"Or is it like the skeletal dragon next to that half-dragon?"

"It depends on luck," Shuoyang said, half-jokingly telling a little lie, "All the elves in my territory were nurtured through their own magical radiation and this crystal."

"Like it and that big-headed dinosaur, they have each only given birth to one offspring so far."

"Hmm~," Serafina said after a moment's thought.

Because I was ganged up on by Adela with her elves a while ago, I've been investigating Shuoyang's territory recently.

She had some understanding of the strength of the Pokémon.

Therefore, after hearing that there was a certain chance that crystals could give birth to powerful familiars like the Vulcan and the Great Skull Dragon, her choice was obvious.

Serafina took a dimensional bag from under the scales and handed it to Shuoyang.

She said, "There are 35,212 gold dragons here. I'll pay back the next 30 years first."

Shuoyang accepted the dimensional bag and paused for a moment.

He was puzzled as to why Serafina would carry treasure with her.

After thinking for a moment, he seemed to remember something.

So he replied casually, "That doesn't count."

"You said you would give me all your treasures."

"So this money is originally mine, don't try to fool me."

"..." Serafina remained silent.

In Shuoyang's expression and eyes, she saw that Shuoyang had been awakened by her self-righteous cleverness.

I remembered her saying that she would give away all her treasures.

Serafina felt like slapping herself.

Although this money was originally prepared by her for this purpose, to appease Shuoyang and save his life.

To her surprise, Shuoyang, this oddball among dragons, didn't take her words to heart at all.

If she hadn't gone through all that trouble to save herself the trouble, she wouldn't have taken out this money.

Shuoyang might just forget about it, and she'll be able to save that money.

But since things have come to this, there's no point in saying more.

Serafina could only suppress her heartache and forcefully comfort herself, saying, "It's not a loss, it's not a loss. He sold the crystal for a pittance anyway."

"I'm the one who profited, I'm the one who profited."
