Chapter 331 Black Dragon is Here!
Black Dragon beat Golden Giant Dragon Austin and Thunder Giant Dragon Erinna?
That doesn't sound right, he heard from Golden Giant Dragon Austin... that both he and Erinna had beaten Black Dragon; they even grabbed Black Dragon's tail and swung him back and forth.
How did it turn out to be Black Dragon beating Austin and Erinna in this human's tale?
A Black Dragon who grew up wandering the Human World, could he really defeat a Golden Giant Dragon and a Thunder Giant Dragon from Dragon Island?
Not to mention they had also signed contracts with the Temple, no matter how you think about it, Black Dragon couldn't be that strong.
Although Golden Giant Dragon Austin had deceived him, Lance, on this matter, he personally had Austin confirm it, and Austin, pinned to the ground and beaten by him, never once said that Black Dragon could defeat him.
That alone was enough to prove that Black Dragon's strength wasn't great, not to mention that he had also asked Thunder Giant Dragon Erinna, who said that Black Dragon wasn't much, and he couldn't even endure a shout from her.
If he couldn't even withstand Erinna's roar, how strong could Black Dragon be?
It seems that it wasn't he, Melbourne, who was deceived this time but the human before him.
Black Dragon probably feared that the human, Lance, would look down on him, so he tricked him by saying he had beaten the Golden Giant Dragon and the Thunder Giant Dragon.
And it seems Lance actually believed it.
That's not right.
Something doesn't add up.
Lance could defeat the Golden Giant Dragon, the Thunder Giant Dragon, and even him, the Bronze Giant Dragon; it didn't make sense that he couldn't beat Black Dragon who wandered the Human World.
Wait... that wandering Black Dragon... could it be that he was long conquered by Lance and even signed a Dragon Knight Contract with him...
In other words, Black Dragon was Lance's mount!
That's why Lance beat up Golden Giant Dragon Austin and Thunder Giant Dragon Erinna—to avenge his mount, Black Dragon!
Otherwise, how could one explain the relationship between Lance and Black Dragon?
Deceptive, crafty humans, actually hiding their true relationship with Black Dragon!
Hmm----
Is it useful?
Wasn't it all figured out by him anyway?
They, the dragons, aren't dumb; they possess great power, which tends to make them dismissive of using their brains, as they can crush their adversaries with sheer might; who needs brains?
Melbourne smirked contemptuously at Lance.
???
Seeing the disdain on Melbourne's face, Lance was somewhat puzzled; what did that contemptuous smirk mean?
Unable to beat him in reality, then imagining pressing him down and beating him until he cried for mercy in his mind?
Thinking highly of himself in his fantasies, that's why such a scornful smile?
"You know, that smile of yours is kind of asking for a punch, don't look at me like that next time, otherwise I might not be able to stop myself from hitting you. The cultivation technique I practice is quite special, if something shakes my moral integrity, I'll do something right then to stabilize it.
For instance, if you disturb my peace of mind, I'll hit you straight away to expel the Heart Demon. Considering this is your first offense, I won't beat you this time."
???
Melbourne was furiously helpless!
This was the first time he encountered such an arrogant and domineering human; in Lance's words, beating Pureblood Dragons seemed as simple as beating a small dog.
Damned thing!
Had it not been for this detestable human drawing three large jars of Dragon Blood from him, with his fiery temper, he would definitely reassess this wretched human's strength!
He tucked away the contempt in his eyes and took a sip of the red tea brewed by a human maid, "I don't like humans like you, those who like to control and instigate things from behind the scenes, only two outcomes for such humans.
One, they succeed and become noted heroes in history.
Second, they manipulate life and, after their deaths, are despised and end up like rats in sewers."
???
Control?
Instigate?
Behind the scenes?
In just this short while, what scenarios had the Bronze Giant Dragon imagined?
What had he turned into in Melbourne's imagination?
Wanted to become a dark emperor ruling the Human World?
Or a demon king aiming to destroy and overturn the world?
He knew humans were fond of imagining things, but he didn't expect there to be dragons in the Dragon Clan who liked to imagine as well.
"I'm not as complicated as you think."
"If I beat up that Black Dragon active in the Human World, will you use that as an excuse to fight me?"
"..."
Where does this bizarre confidence come from?
Wait, what did Melbourne mean by saying that?
So in Melbourne's mind, he, a human, was stronger than Black Dragon?
Has he lost his mind?
He even told him that Black Dragon had beaten Golden Giant Dragon Austin and Thunder Giant Dragon Erinna; how could he still think he could win against Black Dragon?
"You're overthinking it; Black Dragon is very strong. Even Golden Giant Dragon Austin and Thunder Giant Dragon Erinna couldn't beat him; what makes you think you, alone, can defeat Black Dragon?"
"Ha, wait till I meet that Black Dragon, fight him, then you will know if I can defeat him."
"If you don't believe what I say, you could ask Austin and Erinna."
"No need for that; continue hiding your relationship with Black Dragon. Don't worry, I won't expose you. Well, I'm not feeling well; I have to go.
