As a villain, I really don't want to be pursued by the heroine.

The summer starry sky she saw, the autumn maple forest she saw, the warm winter sun she saw, the golden morning light she saw...

And the starting point of all this, the turning point of my destiny, must have started with the crimson sunset I saw with the girl in front of me.

Charlotte smiled softly: "The reason you are afraid of death must be because there are things you can't let go of, right?"

Taking a deep breath, Charlotte deliberately raised her head, pointed her finger, and criticized, "As a proposal, this is not qualified."

"Time, place, makeup, if you want me to agree, at least give me some more attention, right?"

"After everything is over and done, I will consider giving you an answer."

The red-haired princess poked Roy's head with a stern face and ordered unreasonably, "Before that, I will not allow anything to happen to you!"

"...as you command."

Roy smiled knowingly.

The fear of death did not dissipate, but since Her Highness the Princess had given such an order, a knight must obey it no matter what.

Just like every order and agreement he had obeyed before.

"By the way, could that ring just now be the legendary platinum magic ring? Is it a pair with the one you're wearing?"

"Yes."

"...Let me take another look." Charlotte's eyes were full of desire.

Roy turned his head and said, "Let's talk about it after you agree."

"Hey!"

Having said that, it was still frustrating that the proposal didn't go through, and Roy couldn't sleep without bullying her a little.

Chapter 79 The Tragedy of the Dragon Clan

After playing around, Charlotte fell into a deep sleep, and her ruby-like eyes dimmed with sleepiness.

"You are so unreasonable, Princess. You insist on putting off giving me an answer until everything is over... I must hold on."

After murmuring, Roy also closed his eyes, letting his consciousness sink into the depths of darkness.

The restless power flowed to every limb with the beating of the heart, and the past reappeared before his eyes under the influence of the false king's blood.

That is not a story about the blood of false kings of past generations, but the memory of former allies, the ancient gods who once commanded mythological races and dominated the world.

In the valley under the dark clouds, the black dragon named Nidhogg no longer had any dignity. His hands and feet were bound by chains, his wings were torn off by his own kind, and his body was firmly imprisoned by the heavy mountains.

The death penalty is inevitable, and the punishment of life imprisonment is unavoidable. As a sinner of the dragon clan, this punishment is not excessive.

However, even so, Shutong Zhongzhong still showed no sign of surrender.

Until that day comes.

An old man in a dragon robe came with a petite girl.

The indulging black dragon expressed disdain for the behavior of his fellow humans.

"Bahamut, you've transformed into such a weak human form. Don't you have the dignity of being a dragon?"

"And you, Fafner..."

When mentioning this little sister, Nidhogg's expression was complicated, less resentment, and more like a headache.

"Don't say that. Weakness is not a sin. Humans also have a good side."

"Favrna!"

"Brother, I'm not here to argue with you today."

The dragon girl, with her hands behind her back, turned gently and smiled innocently at the old man.

"Father, you said that on my wedding day you would grant all my wishes."

"I have only one wish, and that is for all the people I love to come and witness my happiness."

The old man remained silent.

Nidhogg's eyes suddenly widened. "Great joy? What great joy?"

"Ah, I haven't told you yet."

The dragon girl stuck out her tongue at Nidhogg, playfully and shyly saying, "I'm getting married."

"The target is a human, so I have to transform into a human form. After all, it is inconvenient for us to get along with each other in our bodies."

Nidhogg's expression changed instantly, and the surging power in his rage almost broke through the mountains in his body.

"Bahamut! How dare you use her for the sake of the covenant..."

"Ahem, don't think too much."

"That's right, it has nothing to do with my father, I did it completely voluntarily!"

Ignoring the storm surrounding Nidhogg, Fafnir approached Nidhogg's face with her frail human body and hugged him.

"Do you feel it? My heartbeat."

"Brother, just as I love you, I love that human. This feeling is by no means false, so... can you come in person to bless me?" Gazing at her blood-related brothers and sisters, Fafnir asked softly and sincerely.

Bahamut sighed softly and said, "If you abide by the rules, never break the covenant again, and don't harm humans, I can grant you freedom that day."

The blood ties between siblings and the prejudice and contempt towards humans, the choice between the two is more difficult for Nidhogg than rebelling against the Dragon King.

After a long silence, just as Fafna looked gloomy and was about to let Bahamut leave, a sigh came from behind her.

"I must see with my own eyes whether he knows whether he is married to you or not."

Fafner laughed out loud with joy, and Bahamut's expression softened.

The rebellious black dragon looked away, but his aura was no longer so ferocious.

For a moment, Roy wished the memory could freeze at this moment.

Humans and dragons don't have to fight each other, and everyone can get the best ending.

Unfortunately, the granting did not go as expected, and the fate of both humans and dragons eventually took a turn.

"By the way, what's the name of the human you're interested in?"

Facing Nidhogg's question, Fafna smiled slightly, as if she was the happiest girl in the world.

"Knight of the Kingdom, Siegfried."

Memory is collapsing.

Like a castle made of gravel, it turns into sand and ash with the wind, and passes mercilessly through your fingers.

No one can reverse time, no one can change destiny.

Not even the dragon king can do that.

When facing Bahamut again, Roy finally understood the regret and bitterness hidden on the old man's face.

"Siegfried, he is... that Siegfried?"

The Dragon Slayer, the kingdom's first knight, and the suspected ancestor of the false king's blood.

"That's right." Bahamut nodded slowly.

"That brat is quite remarkable. Both the human princess and this old woman's daughter are completely enamored with him."

"It was Fafner who took that step first. I thought they could live happily ever after, just like the friendship between humans and dragons. But the result was..."

When talking about the past, the old man's face showed a little nostalgia, a little distress, and a little relief, but in the end, everything turned into sorrow.

He lowered his head, his old fingers clenching the cane until the joints turned white and trembled.

"On the day of Fafna's wedding, I led the coalition forces of all the major races to stop the [World-Destroying Disaster]."

"I failed. The coalition's strength was no match for the natural disaster, so I retreated immediately, determined to protect Fafnir and the others at all costs. However, I didn't expect the power of the [World-Destroying Natural Disaster] to arrive first..."

"Taking advantage of my weakness, Nidhogg corrupted the entire dragon race. By the time I defeated them, I had also exhausted my own strength."

The hoarse voice faded into nothingness.

No further explanation was needed, as Roy had already pieced together the key.

How can humans stop a natural disaster that even the gods cannot resist?

Fafner fell to protect humanity, and Nidhogg followed closely behind.

Powerful superhumans and mythical creatures can resist the erosion of the power of evil gods to a certain extent, but once a flaw appears in their mind, no matter how strong their bloodline is, there is a risk of corruption, just like those cultists who have been contaminated by the power of evil gods.

According to Bahamut, the power of [World-Destroying Calamity] is probably stronger than any evil god he knows.

And Nidhogg...

It is not difficult to imagine that the black dragon finally had hope in humans, but witnessed Fafner's miserable condition. In its current state, it was simply the favorite breeding ground for the power of the evil god.

In the end, Bahamut, who had lost his power, could only pin his hopes on Siegfried and ask him to end Fafner's life.

"Little brat, I failed to protect my allies and my tribe, and I let down everyone who loved me."

"But you are different."

The old man from the dragon clan smiled sadly and placed his slightly dry hand heavily on the boy's shoulder.

"I sincerely hope that you won't make the same mistake again."

Along with Bahamut's sigh came a power that almost made his blood boil.

The soul gift from the Dragon King enhanced Roy's dragon blood power and also brought him a lot of divinity - the divinity of a demigod who commanded the sky.

Divinity: 10%

Chapter 80: The Hatred of the Dragon Clan

Volcano of Doom.

For the people of the Lionheart Kingdom, this is the place where the decisive battle took place nineteen years ago. King Lionheart led eleven knights to defeat the Red Blood Fire Dragon, ending the war and creating a legend. It symbolizes hope and honor.

But for the dragon clan, this ruined volcano symbolizes shame. Their fire king fell here, and the proud dragon clan was defeated by humans.

And for Nidhogg, this place means hatred.

Looking down at the unextinguishable embers in the crater, the dark dragon's eyes slowly burned.

"Balagas is too arrogant. I clearly warned him not to attack humans rashly before I awaken."

"Kroline was too foolish. He acted prematurely, weakening the bloodline of the Reinhardt royal family and ultimately ending up like Balagos."

"But no matter what, they are all my blood relatives, my brothers connected by blood. A blood debt must be paid with blood. The blood debt of my dragon clan must be repaid by humans a hundredfold!"

Nidhogg lowered his head in sorrow, his surging rage seemed to erupt at any time and anywhere, and the deep thunder and lightning fell like a rainstorm, as if tearing the sky apart.

The ripples of hatred slowly spread, and the vibrating blood power infected the entire group of dragons, causing them to roar with the same hatred.

Only the Frost Dragon Malygos had a serious look on his face.

As the last celestial dragon connected to Nidhogg by blood, it cannot help but care about its brother.

"Nidhogg, I understand your hatred. But humans are far more powerful today than before."

"The Lionhearted Princess has reached a high level, and the Blood of the False King may have mastered the power of her father. We should perhaps be more cautious."

"Reinforcements from outside the kingdom won't arrive soon. We can just drag this out until the human king is defeated."

Siege rather than general attack, this is the biggest difference between the Ice Dragon and the Black Dragon.

Upon hearing this, the Black Dragon turned around, and a hint of sadness appeared in his deep vertical pupils.

Like a gaze from the abyss.

"Sister, you're scared."

"I……"

"You fear your father. Even though you know he has fallen and will never return to the world, you still fear that the false king's blood will restore his power."

The Frost Dragon fell silent, and Nidhogg withdrew his gaze.

"I do not blame you."

"The reverence for our father is engraved in the blood of every dragon. Only I, who have inherited his original blood, can contend with this reverence."
