Chapter 30 The Evil Dragon Once Deceived and Threatened by Tricks and Bribes



The current Evil Dragon is very strong, and I guess Brude Donahue wasn\'t weak either.

Back then, he couldn\'t beat him.

After so many years have passed, the Evil Dragon might still not be able to beat him...

If Brude Donahue were still alive...

Curious.

I\'m somewhat curious about how this ancient, fierce and flamboyant hero managed to offend the Evil Dragon.

To the point that the Evil Dragon harbored a grudge against him for so many years and even purposely depicted him with a crooked mouth and slanted eyes.

He must have offended him deeply, because otherwise, the Evil Dragon probably wouldn\'t intentionally disfigure someone like this.

"He... did he beat you up back then?"

"Not only did he beat me up, but he also tricked, cajoled, and threatened me, trying to get me to sign a Dragon Knight contract with him to make me his mount. He was a shameless and amoral scoundrel, but as a human, he was quite exceptional. If other Pureblood Dragons had encountered him, they might actually have been tempted to sign a Dragon Knight contract with him.

Even Pureblood Dragons would probably be charmed by his silver tongue into losing all sense of direction."

Lance\'s gaze fell upon the Young Dragon; if that scoundrel from the past had encountered a Young Dragon like Lucia, she might have been fooled to the extent of crying out to bear his offspring.

He hated Brude Donahue, but had to admit the man was indeed quite capable. When the Radiant Divine Court\'s glory cast over half the continent, he resolutely sparked off a "Divine War."

That\'s how human history books recorded the "Rebellion Against the Gods" that he initiated.

Most astonishingly, this man fought against the Divine Court under the banner of the War God.

The slogans he shouted were the quotes of the War God...

This daring maneuver simply baffled the Radiant Divine Court.

If the War God "were watching from the heavens," he\'d probably have to compliment, "Such a talent."

"So strong... someone so remarkable... kind, can he die too?"

To make the Evil Dragon suffer in his youth, this ancient hero must have truly been fierce.

Listening to the Evil Dragon, it seemed he had spent some time with this ancient hero in his youth.

Coaxing, deceiving, threatening...

How could the fierce ancient hero have tricked the Evil Dragon if they hadn\'t spent time together?

How could he have threatened the Evil Dragon?

"He could choose to die, or not to die, depending on his own choice, but historically, he chose death."

"I don\'t... don\'t really understand, if he could have not died, why would he choose death?"

"He was afraid that if he went to the Divine Realm, he would be ganged up on by all the deities."

"....."

Whether or not he would have been ganged up on by all the deities, Lucia didn\'t know, but this ancient hero would have definitely been beaten up by the War God.

After all, this ancient hero had managed to make the War God stand against the rest of the deities...

And yet the War God couldn\'t do anything about him...

He couldn\'t even be accused of blasphemy...

The War God\'s plight was such that he was in bitter distress and couldn\'t express it...

When this ancient hero had sparked the divine war back then, it\'s unknowable whether the War God had been ganged up on by the other deities in the Divine Realm...

"Lance... how did he deceive you back then?"

"He said, as long as I signed a Dragon Knight contract with him, he would give me a huge pile of Gold Coins every year, and over the decades, they would fill my Dragon\'s Den."

"Isn\'t that quite nice?"

Aren\'t Gold Coins and Gems what Dragons love the most?

If this ancient hero could indeed fulfill his promise, the Evil Dragon wouldn\'t be as poor as he is now.

The Evil Dragon\'s current poverty surely stems from his refusal to accept the ancient hero\'s proposal.

The proud and haughty Evil Dragon didn\'t want to become someone else\'s mount.

He must have thought that signing a Dragon Knight contract with a human would make him a mount.

But the relationship between Dragons and Knights is not that of a master and mount.

Partners!

Giant Dragons and Knights have a relationship of partnership, friendship, camaraderie.

It\'s definitely not the [master] and [mount] relationship that ordinary people imagine.

Knights also don\'t dare treat Giant Dragons as their mounts.

To become a Dragon Knight, in addition to powerful strength, one must also be sincere.

Those who see Giant Dragons as tools to show off their might, such knights are doomed not to last long and will never have the chance to become Dragon Knights.

"Pretty good? Indeed, the terms he proposed were pretty good, but if that bastard had been holding a real Gold Coin instead of a copper coin, I wouldn\'t have hesitated to whack him with my tail.

This damn guy holding a copper coin and telling me it\'s a Gold Coin, he was literally grinding my intelligence into the ground. I couldn\'t beat him at that time, but if I could, I would\'ve turned him into a pig\'s head for sure!"

In the thousand years following that incident, every time he remembered it, he got angry. As he grew older, he came to terms with it. When recalling the incident, besides feeling a bit angry, he mostly just wanted to beat up that bastard Brude Donahue.

"Passing off a copper coin as a Gold Coin? This... is indeed a bit much, it\'s practically treating you like a three-year-old child to deceive you."

It\'s no wonder he\'s the bold one who dared to swindle the War God, and when it comes to cheating Evil Dragons... he really went for the kill.

"Lance... this counts as cheating... not coaxing, how did he coax you?"

"He promised big, said if I signed the Dragon Knight contract with him, and once he had a daughter in the future, he would allow me to date her. He also said, to give me a taste of having family, he suggested I try calling him [Father]."

"......."

The Young Dragon stood there dumbfounded. Were ancients really so absurd?

Cheating an Evil Dragon to death, coaxing an Evil Dragon to death, and even trying to take advantage of an Evil Dragon.

It\'s normal to want to be a Dragon Knight.

But wanting to be an Evil Dragon\'s [father]? That\'s a bit too far-fetched, isn\'t it?

And... to con an Evil Dragon into signing a Dragon Knight contract, he was even willing to have his daughter date an Evil Dragon...

When he said these words... did he ask for his daughter\'s opinion?

"Was his daughter... pretty?"

"Back then, he didn\'t even have a girlfriend, how could he have a daughter?"

"......."

That\'s too much...

Way too much...

He dared to promise big to an Evil Dragon without even having a daughter...

He really treated an Evil Dragon who wasn\'t even a thousand years old like a child...

"So how did he threaten you?"

"He said if I didn\'t sign the contract with him, he would paint me as an Evil Dragon who did nothing but evil and have heroes band together to come and subdue me."

"....."

Malicious.

Truly malicious.

Suddenly, the Young Dragon felt that Evil Dragon Lance\'s growth environment in his younger years... may not have been as good as she imagined...

"Did he really do that?"

"No, later he probably felt that bullying a minor Black Dragon like me wasn\'t interesting, so he went to trouble the War God instead."

This man was truly hateful.

But also truly brave.

To dare to challenge the Divine Court during the heyday of the Radiant Divine Court, and to succeed...

He\'s the only one I\'ve encountered like this in over two thousand years.

After his success, various temples started to spring up across the continent.

Although there were some temples back then, they weren\'t very popular.

He founded the Temple of the War God and directly defeated the Radiant Divine Court; it was several hundred years after that when different kinds of temples began to emerge.

With his emergence, for the first time, human kingdoms realized that they could be free from paying taxes to the Divine Court, that the heirs to the throne, the kingdom\'s constitution, policies, didn\'t need the interference of the Divine Court.

The divine right being superior to the royal right... might not necessarily be correct...

He was shameless, low, vulgar, and unscrupulous, but one must admit, in the Human World, he was a hero, a king worthy of respect.
