Tiamat, I'm going to find a girlfriend!

Ian calmly answered Melyuchina's question.

So I did as instructed.

"..."

The answer perfectly reflected the current situation, but it also left Melyuchina with a slight sense of regret.

However, looking at the bath towels burning all over the floor, Meiliuqina knew this was not the time for her to care about such things.

At the very least, we need to figure out why Ian is here.

"felt it."

As if he had known Melyuchina's thoughts all along, Ian gave his answer almost instantly.

"Is that why you came here at all costs?"

"..."

This is a ridiculous reason no matter how you look at it, but it seems reasonable when applied to Ian.

"What other abilities do you have that we don't know about?"

As Melyuchina said that, she walked up to the dragon egg that Ian had completely disposed of.

She bent down and carefully examined the contents inside.

As she looked around, her brows furrowed.

because--

After Ian's flames subsided, all that remained in the place was the trace of a human body.

If we take Ian as the standard for a true dragon.

So……

What remains after the fire can only be called a pseudo-dragon.

"Ian."

Do you think these are all dragons?

"..."

Ian first shook his head, then nodded.

"It is a dragon, but it is not a dragon."

"what do you mean?"

Mei Liuqina became puzzled.

"What does it mean to be a dragon, but not a dragon?"

"They do have dragon-like characteristics, but they weren't born that way."

Ian walked over to Melyuchina and squatted down like her.

"They became like this later."

"..."

After confirming that what she heard was true, Meiliuqina's hand trembled slightly as she touched the marks on the ground.

"what do you mean……"

Are they doing the same thing as Artoria?

"..."

Ian turned around, looked at Melyuchina, and nodded.

"Correct."

"should……"

"They're about the same."

"..."

Melyuchina knew what this meant.

Artoria wasn't the only one trying to turn ordinary people into dragons.

We need to go back right away!

Melyuchina realized this almost instantly.

but--

As she had this thought, the ground that Ian had burned to ashes began to change.

All traces gradually disappeared until nothing was left.

This made Melyuchina even more concerned—she realized that perhaps someone was deliberately hiding something.

"Ian, let's go!"

"Go back and tell Artoria."

The peaceful night sky was shattered once again.

Ian and Melyuchina began flying towards Camelot's location.

However, what they didn't notice was that after they left, a figure slowly emerged from deeper within.

That was Voodoo.

In legend, the White Dragon King should have fought Artoria long ago.

But now, that legend has never come true.

Vortigern did not lead the alien invasion of Camelot as the prophecy foretold.

He has a better plan.

Despite his advanced age, the lowly king, still remarkably energetic, waved his hand, and the forest destroyed by Ian began to regrow at an unimaginable speed.

With another wave of his hand, the nascent form of a dragon was once again conceived in the forest that had just been created.

"Just you wait, Artoria."

"Just you wait, Camelot."

"Soon, you will experience what despair truly means."

It was another long flight.

Ian finally landed on the new city wall of Camelot with Melyuchina.

It was already dawn.

The sun rises in the distance.

The pale yellow light shone on the faces of Melyuchina and Ian.

"It's so bright."

Melyuchina instinctively reached out to cover herself, only to find herself suddenly embraced by Ian.

"You, what are you doing?"

Even though she hadn't made a move yet, Ian took the initiative, which naturally surprised and delighted Melyuchina.

The next sentence she heard further confirmed this idea.

"Meliuchina, am I easy to please?"

"Why do you ask that..."

"Want to know."

The answer was simple and direct. After hesitating for a moment, Meiliuqina nodded after confirming that no one else was watching her and him.

"Isn't that a matter of course?"

"If you can't make me happy so easily, what kind of 'lover' are you?"

As soon as Melyuchina finished speaking, Ian pushed her against the wall.

A familiar feeling welled up inside her.

“Ian, you…”

The moment Meiliuqina uttered those words, her inner feelings became reality.

She noticed that the man's hands were already wrapped around her waist, one on each side, and then she felt a warm breath that she could feel without even turning around.

"is it not OK?"

"Doesn't Melyuchina like this too?"

"Hey, wait a minute!"

Before Meiliuqina could finish speaking, she already felt an unprecedented pressure.

"At least tell me why?!"

Feeling the warmth in his lower abdomen, the petite swordsman couldn't help but say this.

"'remuneration'?"

"Compensation? What compensation?"

"The reward for Meryuchina going out with me."

"besides--"

Ian looked at her, who had instinctively grabbed the wall for support.

"I want to ask you something."

"What's the matter again?"

“Teach me how to get Artoria and Morgan to get along.”

118. Meliuqina: Pull it out first, then we can negotiate the price!

"How can you be like this..."

Melyuchina had just turned around, ready to have a serious talk about Ian's method of the deal.

But she soon realized it was too late.

There is no other reason.

Ian seems to have tacitly accepted that this method is very effective.

So even when Meliuchina turned around and looked at him, he still did as he was told.

And if we really want to talk about it...

His skills seem to be getting better and better...

Is it because you do this kind of thing with Artoria every day that you've become so skilled at it?

As Melyuchina thought this, the image of Artoria and Ian's loving relationship that she had seen in the bathtub that day resurfaced in her mind.

No.

You can't think about those things.

Meiliuqina bit her lip tightly.

I can't agree to him so easily—

However, Melyuchina's thought vanished in less than a second.

Because her reaction, in Ian's eyes, was an indication that she "felt it wasn't enough."

"I understand."

"In that case—"

"Eh!"
