There was a hint of smugness in Rossweisse's tone when she said this.

Leon's mind moved slightly, and he immediately understood why Rossweisse said she wanted to go back on foot.

So she wanted Leon to beg for mercy.

In this situation, all the "chips" are in Rossweisse's hands.

They were still so far away from the temple that it went without saying that they could just walk back.

But Rossweisse can transform into dragon form and fly back at any time;

Even though Leon had the empire behind him, he couldn't escape Rossweisse's eyes at all. He would be caught by her before he could run a few meters.

Therefore, after humiliating Leon's dignity, Rossweisse planned to slowly torture his body.

Thinking of this, Leon couldn't help but tighten his grip on the dry tree trunk.

He gritted his teeth and replied, "I said I'm not tired, just keep going."

"Humph, the only thing that's tough is your mouth."

Leon walked forward, brushed past Rossweisse, looked ahead, and said faintly,

"My Queen, apart from my mouth, my bones are also very hard. Do you want to see me beg for mercy? Impossible."

He continued walking forward.

Rossweisse snorted coldly and followed.

Anyway, she, an energetic dragon king, is competing in endurance with an extremely weak human. No matter what, the outcome is certain.

She wanted to see how tough this great dragon slayer could be.

The two walked for about ten minutes and suddenly heard a commotion coming from not far away.

Looking for the source of the sound, I saw some lights, as if someone was camping.

And that fire was naturally the bonfire they lit to drive away some wild beasts in the mountains and forests.

The fire was reflected in Leon's dark pupils.

That seemed like some kind of hope.

He opened his mouth and wanted to shout for help, because this might be his only chance to convey his situation.

But when the words came to his lips, Leon swallowed them back.

He glanced sideways at Rossweisse beside him.

If he called for help from that group of people now, Rossweisse would kill them without hesitation.

That would be tantamount to Leon harming them.

After realizing this, although he felt extremely sorry, Leon turned around and left.

However, before he had taken a few steps, he heard an enthusiastic voice coming from the campfire.

"Hey! Are you guys lost?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a rustling sound was heard, as if the group of people were walking towards him through the grass.

Rossweisse immediately became alert, and magical energy instantly gathered in her hands.

Seeing this, Leon quickly stepped forward and held Rossweisse's wrist.

The scorching magical energy burned Leon's hands, but he didn't care at all.

Leon stood in front of Rossweisse and blocked her tail.

The campers came over and kept some distance between them.

"Are you two lost?" asked a young man.

"Ah no, no, we were just... uh... hanging out."

"This forest is not a good place to hang out, sir. There are many dangerous species and wild beasts. Why don't you spend the night in our camp? We will escort you down the mountain tomorrow."

After a pause, the young man seemed to be afraid that Leon would think he was a bad guy, so he took the initiative to confess his identity, "Oh, by the way, my name is Walker, and I am the captain of the 47th Squadron of the Imperial Dragon Slayer Army."

The moonlight was dim, the trees in the mountains were dense, and they were at a certain distance from each other, so they couldn't see each other's faces clearly.

Otherwise, as a doctor of the Dragon Slayer Army, it would be impossible for Luke to fail to recognize Leon.

A great opportunity is right in front of them. As long as Leon shouts "Save me" now, this well-trained dragon-slaying team will immediately realize the problem.

But the price is that they will most likely be wiped out by Rossweisse.

Even if someone could escape back to the imperial capital to report Leon's situation, the cost in casualties would be too high.

Leon would never do such a thing.

Leon pursed his lips, then suddenly put his arm around Rossweisse's waist.

This move frightened the Queen so much that even the magic energy in her hand dissipated unconsciously.

"Thank you for your kindness, dragon slayers. My wife and I have received some training, and we can protect ourselves. We just want to stroll around now, and we will go down the mountain later."

Hearing what Leon said, Captain Walker stopped inviting him, "Okay. Oh, yes, this is for you."

Walker came forward and handed over a flare. "If you are in real danger, blow the flare toward the sky and we will rush over immediately."

Leon took it and nodded in thanks, "Thank you."

"You're welcome - huh? Sir, you look familiar. Have I seen you somewhere before?" When he got closer, Walker could see Leon's face more clearly.

Leon hesitated for a moment, then rejected it with a smile, "Brother, I just have an ordinary face. When my wife was pursuing me, she was attracted by my face."

Rossweisse: ...

Walker smiled and said, "Okay, I won't bother you two anymore."

After that, Walker left with his team members.

After they walked away, Leon breathed a sigh of relief.

Rossweisse immediately pushed Leon away with her tail, and then teased, "I didn't realize you were such a good liar, and you still want me to pursue you, it's ridiculous."

"Don't you think I'm not disgusted when I say this?"

"You're disgusting yourself, so you have to make me feel disgusted too?"

"Of course, husband and wife are birds of the same forest."

Rossweisse was speechless. "Get your position clear, Dragon Slayer. Even though we have a child, it doesn't mean I am your wife. Do you understand?"

"I don't want to be your husband either."

Leon put away the flare and looked down at his hand which had just been burned by Rossweisse's magic.

It hurts a little, but it's not a big problem.

Rossweisse raised an eyebrow, noticing Leon's movements and his injured hand.

But she didn't take the initiative to show concern, but asked about another matter, "You hugged my waist just now, but you were actually afraid that I would rush over and kill them all, right?"

Leon glared at her and said nothing, which was considered as his agreement.

"You are very smart, Leon. You didn't ask for help, nor did you act impulsively. Apart from your stubbornness, I haven't found any other shortcomings in you."

"Being tough is never a disadvantage."

Leon continued to walk forward, no longer paying attention to Rossweisse.

Rossweisse smiled calmly and followed.

They continued walking and never encountered any other dragon-slaying teams.

But Leon's body couldn't hold on any longer.

His eyes went dark and he fell to the ground.

Rossweisse looked back, walked to his side, half-knelt down, gently lifted his chin, looked at his tired and pale face, and asked with a smile,

"You can't walk anymore, Leon. Please beg me, please beg me, and I will take you back to rest."

"I don't understand what you are saying..."

"Oh, don't you want to lie on the soft big bed, eat the midnight snack prepared by the maid, and take a comfortable hot bath before going to bed? All you have to do is ask me, and we will be home in three hours."

Leon slowly closed his eyes and said with his last bit of strength, "If you have the guts, just leave me... throw me here to feed the wolves."

After saying this, he completely fainted.

The next second, a gust of wind blew up around Leon, the leaves fluttered, and the ground trembled slightly.

The silver dragon picked up Leon and threw him onto its back.

Then it flapped its dragon wings and flew into the deep night sky.

Chapter 7: 8 I'll leave the child care to you

Leon slowly opened his eyes.

Before my eyes is——

amount.

There is also a pair of eyes in front of me.

The light blue pupils are warm and crystal clear, and the long eyelashes flutter, which is very cute.

"Dad, wake up~"

Little Moon sat on Leon's pillow in a standard duck position, waiting for him to wake up.

After seeing Leon open his eyes, her childish face was filled with uncontrollable joy.

The aho hair on top of its head and the tail behind it were also swaying gently because of excitement.

Leon woke up a little and tried to sit up.

Seeing this, Mu En immediately stepped forward, held Leon’s arm, and helped him lean against the head of the bed.

Just as he was about to say thank you, Leon suddenly felt a slight pain in his hand.

He looked down and saw that his right hand was wrapped in a bandage.

This was the wound he got last night when he and Rossweisse encountered a group of dragon slayers in the woods and he stepped forward to stop Rossweisse and was burned by her magical energy.

Has it been bandaged now?

"I bandaged this for Dad! It was me!"

Seeing that Leon was staring at the bandage on his right hand, little Mu En couldn't wait to take credit.

She puffed out her chest proudly, and the little tail behind her lifted higher.

Leon showed a tired smile, raised his hand and rubbed Mu En's head, "Well, Mu En is great."

After being touched on the head by Leon, Mu En became even happier. She rubbed against Leon's big palm actively like a kitten.

Moon narrowed his eyes and smiled, seeming to enjoy this feeling.

She had no hostility towards Leon and completely treated him as a father.

So even though she had obvious dragon characteristics, Leon couldn't have any hostile thoughts towards her, let alone the kind of "irreconcilable" disgust.

not to mention.

She is still a cute little dragon girl.

If we only consider appearance such as "pretty" and "cute", dragon cubs do have some advantages over humans.

They grow faster, become intelligent earlier, and their bodies and appearance change much earlier than humans.

Thinking of this, Leon couldn't help but think about a question:

How could Rossweisse, this crazy dragon who is full of hatred and has a sour face all day long, give birth to such a cute and gentle daughter?

Although dragon cubs have innate advantages in appearance, in terms of character, they will show the ferocity and strength of the dragon clan from an early age.

Leon has also read many papers published by dragonologists. They all agree that a dragon's entire life is spent in violence and blood, including when it is a young dragon.

But looking at Mu En's appearance, he has nothing to do with "violence" at all.

Could it be... that it's because of the human-dragon hybrid...

Leon was thinking, and soon the door was opened.
