A Dragon against the Whole World

Getting the recognition and long-term investment from a learned and experienced Silver Dragon Magic Potion Master will surely yield endless benefits in the future.

"I deeply appreciate your generous gift, but I won’t just take your precious magic potion for nothing."

Galos said earnestly.

"In the future, if more is needed or if customizations are required, please allow me to exchange or purchase them with Gold Coins, gemstones, rare materials, or anything else that might interest you."

Silver Dragon Adri nodded slightly at these words, his eyes filled with an even deeper appreciation.

He felt that Galos was not only extraordinarily talented but also knew how to advance and retreat, deeply understanding the importance of restraint, and was not a greedy person.

In terms of restraining desires and understanding boundaries, he even surpassed many young Metal Dragons who grew up with a good education in the Dragon Domain.

He couldn’t help but feel a pang of regret.

When he first heard about this peculiar Red Iron Dragon from his daughter Deborah, he should have personally investigated it then.

How wonderful it would have been to discover its potential and temperament early, adopt it as a foster child, and devote his efforts to nurturing it.

He already harbored the idea of guiding Evil Dragons to be good, proving the impact of acquired influences, and in his eyes, Galos, with his tough nature and non-evil disposition, was the perfect candidate.

What a pity, what a pity!

Back then, he always thought it best to start guiding an Evil Dragon during its naive hatchling phase, thus missing the optimal time.

Now, this young Red Iron Dragon is already shining brightly.

Looking across the entire Raging Waves Dragon Domain, it would be tough to find a young Metal Dragon who could match its strength and potential.

In other Dragon Domains, there are some renowned, extraordinarily talented young dragons, but it’s uncertain how they compare to Galos.

But no matter what.

Adri could no longer bring up the idea of adopting him as a foster child.

The gap in their strength no longer resembled that of a senior and junior but rather of equals among the strong.

However, although adopting him as a foster child was no longer feasible, now seemed like a good time to establish a deeper and closer relationship with this promising Red Iron Dragon through other means.

Thinking of this, the Silver Dragon’s gaze instinctively shifted to his daughter Deborah.

"Father!"

Deborah immediately caught her father’s fleeting glance.

She blinked her beautiful dragon eyes and said, "I’ve asked you several times before for a set of Nine Dragon Potions, but you always found excuses to refuse me."

She twisted her long neck, sweetly coaxing and pleading, "I don’t care; I want them now."

"Please give me a set, won’t you?"

However, upon hearing his daughter’s wheedling, Adri’s dragon face, which just moments ago had been amiable towards Galos, suddenly turned stern, resuming its usual authority and severity.

"Nonsense! What’s your life level now? And what about Galos’s life level?"

The Silver Dragon’s tone was severe, with a reprimanding tone, "Look at Galos, how he diligently trains and continuously improves himself! Now look at yourself, and ask yourself, have you really given it your all? Have you slacked off? Have you put in the effort?!"

He extended his claw, pointing first to Galos, then to his daughter, continuing, "When your growth progress and effort level truly satisfy me, then I will consider giving you the Nine Dragon Potion as a reward."

"Until then, learn from Galos more! See how he approaches training and growth! If you could even put in half the effort and focus he does, your current life level could have advanced at least one more grade!"

Stunned by her father’s sudden comparison and criticism, Deborah’s beautiful dragon eyes widened in surprise.

Eh?

No, this can’t be right!

The script shouldn’t be like this!

Why did she, his own daughter, become the one being dismissed?

This 180-degree change in her Silver Dragon father’s attitude left her momentarily unable to react, standing there bewildered, as if in disarray by the wind.

"Oh, my poor little Deborah, it seems you’re about to fall out of favor."

Selena extended her claw, gently patting her daughter’s broad armor-like shoulder.

Out of understanding for her mate.

She could mostly guess the Silver Dragon’s thoughts now.

But she didn’t intend to say much, because even before the Silver Dragon’s attitude shifted, she already quite admired the Red Iron Dragon.

PS: Taking the little ones back home for a gathering, meeting relatives; the environment at home is not very good, and it’s a bit busy, so there might be only one Chapter update these few days. After this busy period, I’ll catch up. Anyway, I guarantee an average of eight thousand words per day this month, aiming for ten thousand per day if possible.
