Crossing the azure as a black dragon

Black Flying Dragon coughed lightly and moved aside. She had originally planned to come back for lunch with Avira at noon, but after visiting the school, Avira said she wanted to go to a nearby city. She couldn't refuse, so she wandered around outside until this time.

She felt a little awkward putting everything else aside and going shopping with others.

"Alright."

Tiancheng ignored Heifeilong's somewhat embarrassed appearance and walked out of the office.

The last black dragon to emerge closed the door, and the three of them left the office building and strolled along the main road of the port area.

The sun is slowly setting, visibility is decreasing, and many streetlights along the roadside have been turned on, illuminating the road.

Avira is a large courtyard with a slightly ancient Eastern style. You can observe the inside through the openwork carved area of ​​the wall. The house is light blue in color, and the roof is covered with blue tiles. Huge red load-bearing columns support the extended eaves, creating a wide outer corridor.

Tiancheng's residence was chosen about ten meters away, also in the style of Donghuang. Walking into the front yard, you can see a pond surrounded by stones, with lotus leaves growing in it, adding a touch of green. In the middle of the pond, there is an open space with a rockery. When night comes, the lights turn on automatically, and warm light surrounds the entire courtyard, which is very comfortable.

Avira's house was arranged by Black Dragon using his special privileges; Akagi and Kaga should also be included on Amagi's side.

"Let's put the portal here."

Amagi led the two through the middle of the large house, arriving at a room with only empty bookshelves, and pointed to the snow-white walls, saying...

"Hmm, including the basement in the Freeport area, right?"

Black Flying Dragon stepped forward, placed his hand on the wall, and turned back to confirm.

Amagi grunted in agreement, and the Black Flying Dragon began to exert its power. The walls were scorched by black flames, and a few seconds later, a dark brown door replaced the original wall. Compared to the one in the basement, this door had more patterns and carvings on both sides, and its shape was also softer.

The door is two meters high and two and a half meters wide. The two doors are pushed and pulled. After the shape is fixed, Black Dragon takes out the energy stone he got from Avira and puts it into the hidden compartment in the middle of the door beam. Waiting for the energy to dissipate, the door is then permanently fixed.

Avira watched the whole thing from the sidelines, her expression subtly suggestive, as if she had witnessed something new and exciting.

Tiancheng remained calm, as the fact that the Black Flying Dragon could dig tunnels had already spread within the city.

"Compared to Akashi, who uses instruments, I only use this more direct method."

After finishing, Black Dragon turned around and looked at the two of them. Upon seeing Avira's expression, he readily admitted that he had fallen behind.

"It's okay, it's very creative."

Avira gently patted her cheeks and gave the black dragon a thumbs-up, just like she was coaxing a child.

"...There's still energy left over, let's open a door on your side too."

Black Flying Dragon's lips twitched slightly, his mood somewhat complicated.

Actually, she thought it was pretty good, after all, this door connected rooms that were two hundred miles apart.

However, in the eyes of an ultimate boss like Avira, it's probably both childish and a waste of resources.

"Okay, okay."

A joyful smile appeared on Avira's face, and she clapped her hands in welcome.

"We're leaving now. Feel free to contact me if you need anything."

Black Flying Dragon looked at Sky City.

"it is good."

Tiancheng saw Hei Feilong and the other man out of the courtyard, then returned to his study and pushed open the door to the dimly lit basement study in the Free Port area.

"Lord Amagi! What about the Sakura Empire..."

Hearing the commotion, King Kong came down from above and saw Tiancheng. He quickly walked up to Tiancheng and lowered his voice.

...

Through the opened portal, Black Dragon and Avira traveled from the mansion in the branch port to the study in their new house. Although the room was somewhat empty, no one usually came in, making it the perfect place to open the door.

After closing the door, Black Dragon looked at Avira beside him. Although a house had been prepared in the branch port, judging from her actions, she didn't seem to have any intention of living there alone.

But it doesn't matter, it's much safer to be with her.

Avira tilted her head in confusion, not understanding the deep look in Black Dragon's eyes.

"Nothing much. Is there anything you'd like to eat for dinner tonight?"

Black Flying Dragon smiled and, while asking the question, stepped forward and opened the door to the study.

As soon as the door opened, a voice came from the living room not far away—it was Black Flying Dragon's familiar and very distinctive voice.

It's Santiago.

"Well, there's nothing in particular I want to eat... or rather, I'm open to anything you prepare."

Avira thought for a moment, then smiled sweetly.

Black Flying Dragon scratched his head but didn't say anything. He walked to the open door of the living room, glanced inside, and saw that Yuudachi Shigure was eating snacks while listening to Santiago brag. His voice could be heard outside the door.

Yuudachi was eating sunflower seeds when, as if by telepathy, she glanced at the door, immediately jumped off her chair, and ran to the door to greet Black Dragon and Ivyra with a happy smile:

"Sister Long, and Sister Avira, welcome back."

"We're back, Santiago too, it's been a long time."

Black Dragon patted Yuudachi's cute little head, walked into the living room, and greeted Santiago.

"Hey hey, long time no see! Aren't you surprised to see me?"

Santiago, as always, was full of energy, standing up and raising his hands in a strange pose.

"That's a pleasant surprise. How about we have dinner here before heading back?"

Black Flying Dragon nodded in agreement and extended his hand in invitation.

"Thank you so much! Is this pretty young lady your friend? You two look very well-matched!"

Santiago was completely at ease, offering a simple thank you before turning his attention to Avira, praising her and giving her a thumbs up.

"Well, for some reason, Avira will be staying with me for a while... This is Santiago from the White Eagles, a friend I've known before."

Black Dragon gave Santiago a strange look. How come he's become so sweet-talking after just a few months?

Hello~

Avira responded with a smile, looking very happy.

"In that case, you all take a rest. I'll go cook. Is there anything you'd like to eat?"

Black Flying Dragon put one hand on his hip and asked the three little guys in the living room.

"Sister Long, Sister Long."

Yuudachi reached out and tugged at the hem of Black Flying Dragon's clothes.

Black Flying Dragon lowered its head, waiting for Yuudachi to speak.

"San Diego said there's a singer coming to perform tomorrow, shall we go together?"

Yuudachi raised her head and cast an expectant look at the black dragon.

"Hmm? Sure."

Black Dragon paused for a moment, looking at Santiago and Shigure. Although she hid it well, she could still tell that the two were a little nervous. She paused for a few seconds and then answered with a smile.

"But the concert is tomorrow, right now I need to focus on eating."

After saying that, Black Flying Dragon ruffled Yuudachi's hair. Answering irrelevantly is not a good habit.

"Hehe, we love to eat whatever Sister Long makes, Shiyu, don't you agree?"

Yuudachi chuckled slyly, and dragged Shigure into the fray as well.

"Hmph, barely passable, but being recognized by Lord Shigure is a testament to your ability. Just do your best."

Shigure, who was half-reclining in her chair, was picking up a sunflower seed when she heard Yuudachi's words. She paused, stood up, and gave a unique reply.

"Wow, that's such an awkward way to say it."

Santiago made a strange noise nearby.

"That's it."

Xi Li agreed beside him.

"You two!?"

Shiyu's eyes widened at the two's sabotage, and the three's argument immediately made the living room lively.

Black Dragon looked at Avira with a hint of helplessness, only to find her watching the three of them arguing with a smile, seemingly enjoying it.

"..."

Scratching his head, Black Dragon left the living room and went to the kitchen.

An hour later, the five of them sat around the table and enjoyed a hearty meal.

"The concert starts at 3 PM tomorrow. Is this lady going too?"

Santiago picked his teeth with a toothpick, glancing at Avira, who was elegantly sipping her tea, while Yuudachi and Shigure were scrambling for the last few pieces of fried chicken on the table.

Do you have any extra tickets?

Avira didn't respond directly, but asked a question in a low voice.

Yes, there are.

Santiago took five tickets out of his pocket.

She had originally planned to buy one for Minneapolis as well, but the guy didn't give her any face at all, and she was still a little conflicted about who to ask.

"Let's go together then."

Avira answered very naturally.

"Okay! I'll come find you tomorrow."

you."

Santiago handed out the tickets to the four Black Dragons present, stretched, and ran out of the kitchen.

"What an adorable little guy."
