Red Dragon, but chosen by all four gods

Within the mountains, in the temporary dragon's nest.

After hearing Mortar's report, Heros quickly laughed, just like Mortar.

"Unshackle yourself? Interesting."

While fishing in the White River Valley, the magical traps prepared by the liches were meant to awaken the five-colored dragons' bloodline instincts and give rise to rebellious thoughts.

As expected, these new insects still believed that the chromatic dragon could not truly submit to the golden dragon and wanted to seize this excellent opportunity to attack the Golden Dragon Court.

However, it's understandable that they would think this way because they are unaware of Celia's research.

In fact, Seraria's research is far from successful; Heros is an exception, he is not a pure red dragon.

The loyalty of the four baby dragons has nothing to do with Seraria; it's all thanks to "Dark Purple."

However, this did not prevent Heros from taking advantage of this.

"The silver moon hangs high... a silent song..."

Heros instructed, "Magren, according to what this letter says, send your dragonborn to investigate."

"Okay," Maglen replied.

"Motal, don't go yourself. After Maglen has finished his investigation, send one or two dragonborn to make contact and see what kind of people they are."

Motar nodded.

"Faldom, didn't your Dragonborn find two bugs? Don't close the net yet."

"Since they want to turn a green dragon against its will and 'unshackle' it, I think the commotion will be significant, and we might be able to find more of their members."

"Have the dragonborn follow for a while longer, and wait for news from Mortal before making any further decisions."

"……yes."

Ferdom was somewhat unwilling.

Originally, it was her dragonborn who first found the enemy and was about to achieve the first victory, but as soon as Mortar returned, all the actions had to revolve around Mortar, and even she could only play a supporting role.

The three young dragons each departed to complete their own tasks, and soon only Heros and the fast-sleeping Anglu remained in the temporary dragon nest.

Heros kicked Anglu.

"Huh? Uh... Heros?" Anglu was kicked awake, but he was still groggy.

"Come with me, it's time to check on the situation with the noble lords."

"oh."

Seeing that Heros had already taken flight, Anglu drowsily followed after him.

Heros doesn't fly very fast; if he were to fly at full speed, he could easily leave Anglu behind.

Seraria once said that Heros's flight speed had surpassed that of ordinary young dragons and was comparable to that of teenage dragons.

When Anglu caught up with Heros, Heros's horns glowed faintly, and then the two enormous young dragons suddenly disappeared into the air, completely invisible from the ground.

Over the years, Heros has dabbled in most forms of magic, aside from his research into bio-alchemy.

Although it's not as strong as Macaros, it's enough for me.

……

The noble lords who rule Greyhill Island are the Declan family.

Their castle was not as magnificent and large as Galahren's; it was more like a stone fortress situated atop a hill.

Rugged and primitive, it perfectly matches the barren hilly terrain of Grey Hill Island.

Surprisingly, it suited Heros's aesthetic taste quite well.

At this time, elite soldiers were stationed on all parts of the castle walls, patrolling day and night.

Heros could see that there were many figures who were significantly taller than the other soldiers mixed in; those were clearly Heros's dragon descendants.

Heros led Anglu to circle the castle twice, and then circled the area near Delanker Castle twice.

The true blood within them will inform them of the arrival of the Dragon Lord.

Afterwards, Heros landed with Anglu in a ravine far from the castle.

Soon, Tarek and Mokailo, sensing the arrival of their respective dragon lords, each led a small team to rush over.

Heros asked them to report on the recent situation of the rebels.

Tarek was the first to report: "Dragon Lord, the Delank family has been receiving messages that more and more minor lords are rebelling, and even some nobles who also belong to the Delank family have rebelled."

"Oh? Didn't they receive the news that the famine is being resolved?"

"We received the order, but it did not prevent the rebellion from occurring."

Heros nodded, not particularly surprised.

The methods used to create famine were too obvious; it was clearly a deliberate show. He never believed that solving the famine would solve the problem.

"Mokello, have you found out the reason for the rebellion?"

"Yes, Lord Heros. We infiltrated the rebels for a while and found that many of the rebellious villagers, and even noble lords, were somewhat fanatical."

Mokero's thoughts weren't as clear as Tarek's; he pondered for a moment before answering:

"It's like they've been bewitched by someone. When you ask them for the specific reasons for their rebellion, they can't give a coherent explanation, but they just insist on rebelling."

Heros nodded.

This persuasive ability is not sophisticated; the effect of "patient guidance" is enough to thoroughly alter perceptions.

However, the method of "patiently guiding" takes too long and requires Heros to do it one by one.

However, this ability has a wide range of applications. It only took two months to report the rebellion and its effects were quick, so it was enough to deal with ordinary people.

"Have you found any outsiders hiding within the rebel army?"

"no."

"No?"

"Yes, Lord Heros, no outsiders have been found among the rebels. They are all local villagers and noble lords from Grayhill Island. I have not yet found any trace of outsiders."

"That surprised me."

To seduce so many villagers and soldiers, it was necessary to make contact with them.

If it were a large-scale magical ritual, Mokello and the others, having inherited dragon blood, would have been able to sense it.

"Have you uncovered any other suspicious circumstances during your investigation?"

Not yet.

Mokero was a little flustered, but Heros didn't blame him.

"I came here specifically to remind you that we will be launching an operation in the next day or two. If the rebels change their ways as a result, you should not interfere."

"Yes."

"Yes."

Heros wasn't worried about Taric; he was very organized.

He came here today partly to personally inspect the situation of the rebels and noble lords.

On the other hand, it's important to remind Mokello that these Milha tribe warriors are prone to impulsiveness, and with the influence of "Crimson," they are even more likely to get carried away in the fight.

Although Heros wanted to train these dragonborn, he still treasured them.

After giving instructions to Tarek and Mokello, Heros led Anglu back to the temporary dragon's lair.

As night fell, the silver moon quickly rose high in the sky, and Heros waited quietly.

There was no sign of the "Song of Silence" near the mountains where he was.

But Maglen's communication stone lit up, reporting that he had made a discovery.
