Miss Dragon, the BOSS, will not be captured.

A fully grown black dragon... who else could it be besides Fafnir?

Why did she kidnap Listy?

"Gurgle... It seems it's because I accidentally entered her territory..."

"Dragon territories are usually very well hidden, could it be that Lysty brought this upon herself?"

Estia immediately guessed the reason, considering that Lysty was a witch, and witches love to explore the unknown. If she knew of a hidden place, she would definitely go in and investigate.

"Waaaaah, I'm so sorry, it was indeed Lysty who infiltrated the dragon's lair first, but she didn't know it was a dragon's lair at the time!"

"and after?"

"Later, I received Lysty's plea for help, so I rushed to rescue her, but that evil black dragon wouldn't let her go and insisted that I defeat her first."

"puff."

Estia couldn't help but laugh. An adult black dragon fighting a young black dragon one-on-one? Wasn't that bullying a dragon?

"That's why I came to find you, Sister Esther. She said we could find outside help..."

"Alright, then let me go and meet her."

Estya's idea was simple: beat the other person and then become friends with them.

Although she wouldn't dare say she was invincible on the continent of Faya, she could proudly say that she was the strongest dragon on the continent of Faya, without exception.

Even though she is not yet an adult.

Sun Plains is a scenic spot within the Kingdom of Fania, attracting many tourists every year. Unlike the dangerous Dragon Abyss, Sun Plains is devoid of any decent monsters, making it extremely safe and earning it the title of a divinely bestowed land.

Now it seems that the reason why there are so few monsters on the Sun Plains is probably because an adult dragon is living in seclusion there.

It's strange, since the Sun Plains are within the territory of the Kingdom of Fania, Estia, who is so close to the Sun Plains, has never detected any trace of the dragons. If they have been living here all along, it means that they are also a shut-in dragon.

The sudden arrival of the two giant dragons threw the humans on the Sun Plains into panic. The Sun Plains was not a wilderness; it was home to large human settlements. They sounded the alarm and urged those picnicking or on vacation on the plains to rush to the towns for shelter.

“Those little bugs are all afraid of us,” Fufuna said.

"But don't be too proud, there are strong people among humans too."

Although the human army on the ground below had formed a battle formation, they would never launch an attack. Over the long course of their interactions, humans and Estia had developed a tacit understanding and mostly maintained a relationship of mutual respect and non-interference.

Now that Fufuna had brought help, she felt emboldened and flew over the plains, letting out a dragon roar: "Come out! You wicked black dragon! Accept the challenge!"

"Ow!"

The roar of a dragon came from underground, and the ground below suddenly shattered. A huge black dragon soared into the air, flapping its wings and flying to Estia and Fufuna.

She looked at the silver dragon in front of her, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes, but she couldn't lose face. Since the other party had come to challenge her, she would fight first!

A fighting spirit began to boil within the black dragon's blood. She gestured for Fufuna to step back, preparing to fight the silver dragon before her.

"It's better to introduce yourselves before the duel."

Estia stared calmly at the black dragon.

“Nidhogg”.

"Oh?"

Estia had never heard of this name before, and she quickly introduced herself: "Estia."

"Enough talk, let's start fighting!"

The black dragon suddenly flapped its wings and flew towards Estia at an extremely fast speed.

She actually wants to fight in her original form!

Chapter 158, Section 150: Fierce Battle of Two Dragons

Estia hadn't fought in her true form for a long time, so she seemed a bit rusty, but she still flapped her wings and charged towards the black dragon in front of her.

boom!

The two dragons collided and then separated.

This is a tradition in battles between dragons: the first attack does not use fangs and claws, but rather relies solely on pure physical contact to determine the opponent's strength.

It has a similar feel to a duel between human knights.

Judging from their size, Nidhogg is tens of meters long, while Estia is not far behind; the two are about the same size.

"A semi-adult dragon? My strength is currently diminished, so our one-on-one fight is fair, to avoid accusations that I'm bullying a junior."

"If that's the case, then let's do it!"

Estya's fighting spirit was also aroused; it was a rare occurrence for dragons to fight each other.

At the same time, she was somewhat surprised, because Nidhogg's strength was no weaker than hers. The other party claimed that he was in a state of weakened strength. If he were in normal strength, how strong would he be?

"You know the rules, right, Estya?"

"Understand."

Unless it's a life-or-death battle, there are certain rules in the dragon race during combat: they are not allowed to use maiming methods or resort to underhanded tactics.

The duel will end when the opponent is unable to resist, or when both sides agree to a draw.

"Look! Two dragons are fighting!"

The humans who had fled earlier all came back. Sure enough, there are always onlookers, even though they know the dragon is dangerous, they can't resist their curiosity.

Many people even used photo crystals to record the spectacular scene before them.

"Those annoying little bugs, I'll go and get rid of them."

Fufuna, who was watching from the sidelines, couldn't help but say something.

"No need, just let them see it."

Estia needs to gain prestige. As she becomes famous, many people will admire her for her great strength and develop a liking for her.

She hadn't forgotten the important task the world's AI had given her: if enough people liked her, she could be promoted to demigod.

Forget about all that, let's fight!

This time, Nidhogg was serious. She pounced on Estia, ready to tear her flesh apart with her claws.

Estia knew that she would inevitably be injured and stained with blood today. For her, who had been a recluse for many years, this was a rekindling of her past experiences of seeking revenge against the empire.

This is also a good opportunity to test whether my strength is still the same after a thousand years without fighting against someone of the same level.

The silver dragon in the sky did not back down and also pounced on the black dragon. The two became entangled and tore at each other with their sharp teeth and claws.

Yes, battles between dragons are that wild; there is no such thing as an elegant duel. After all, they are high-level magical beasts, and every part of their body can be used as a weapon.

Every now and then, red dragon blood would fall from the sky, some from silver dragons and some from black dragons. They were fighting with almost all their might, but they also avoided hitting their vital parts.

The red dragon blood that had been spilled onto the plains quickly blossomed into many silver-black flowers. At the time, no one noticed them, but in the future, alchemists who understood the properties of these precious flowers would fight tooth and nail for them.

Dragons are not allowed to use magic during duels, but they can use dragon breath. This pure power is a test of who is stronger. The two dragons pull apart as they tear each other apart, and at the same time open their mouths to spew cold or hot breath at each other.

Such a grand scene naturally attracted the attention of the players, and many players gathered here to watch. They thought that some special plot was about to begin, and many players recognized that the silver dragon was Estia.

"Wow, Esther is... injured?"

"real or fake?"

"Ranger and mage classes can see very close distances with Eagle Eye, and now Esther is bleeding from many parts of her body."

"what?!"

Compared to the suddenly appearing black dragon, players are more familiar with Esther, not to mention that there are fans of Esther among the player community.

Soon, the Esther fan club arrived after receiving the news. As the strongest boss on the continent of Faya, the silver dragon girl with a unique backstory and pitiable personality has a massive fan base among players.

Although it's unclear why the two dragons are fighting, the members of the Esther fan club have to show their support for their "little cutie".

"Go for it, Estella!"

"Take them down! We're all watching you!"

We absolutely have to win!

This amazing scene unfolded on the Sun Plains, where a large number of human adventurers were cheering on the dragon lord of the Dark Abyss.

Because of the distance, the players were worried that Estella wouldn't be able to see them, so they devised a way to create a huge banner that read—

"Go, Esther, the cutest girl in all of France!"

To attract attention, the mages among the players formed a team and simultaneously unleashed fire-attribute explosive magic into the sky, creating a sound that drew the attention of Estia and Nidhogg, who were engaged in battle.

"puff."

Looking at the banners the players had put up, Esther couldn't help but laugh. These players were really adorably silly, but was this what it felt like to be popular?

In fact, she did not want to become enemies with the players, but due to the arrangement of the world AI, the monster faction had to be opposed to the human faction.

"Are you that well-known among humans?"

Nidhogg was very surprised; she never imagined that so many humans would support Esther.

"This is what an idol is like," Esther exclaimed.

What does "idol" mean?

"that is……"

Estia hovered in mid-air and began to explain the meaning of the word "idol" to Nidhogg, a word she had actually learned from a player forum.

"Should we continue?" she asked.

"Let's not fight anymore."

Nidhogg knew she couldn't hold on any longer. Although she and Estia were both injured, she realized that in terms of strength, she was still no match for Estia.

Just who is this silver dragon? It's clearly still in its semi-adult stage...

She scratched her body with her claws. Thanks to the dragon's powerful regenerative abilities, the bleeding from her wounds had stopped, but it would still take some time for them to heal.

Similarly, Estella's wounds stopped bleeding, and the pain she felt now made her blood boil; it had been a long time since she had a proper battle.

"Can you release Lysty now?"
