A Dragon against the Whole World

"Hahaha... uh..."

Just as she spoke, the Elf Dragon realized she might have said something she shouldn’t have.

She turned her head stiffly, and sure enough, met Galos’ eyes, which were becoming a bit dangerous.

"Uh... I just remembered that the magic mushrooms I planted are almost ready for harvest. You guys continue talking, have fun."

The Elf Dragon laughed awkwardly.

Accompanied by the shimmering fall of numerous glowing magic dust, her body quickly became blurry and transparent, and in the next second, she vanished into thin air, faster than the wind.

Deborah changed the topic and asked, "Galos, why did you suddenly head to the wilderness earlier?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she keenly noticed an unusual fluctuation in the aura surrounding Galos, not as calm and steady as usual, but with a restlessness as if he had just been through an intense battle.

Upon closer inspection, one could see that his bare torso and limbs had acquired many new scars.

Crisscrossing, not yet fully healed.

Adri and Selena also noticed this.

The Red Copper Dragon put away his joking expression and asked, "Who did you fight with to end up like this?"

"Looking at these marks, the battle must have been fierce. Were you badly hurt?"

The usually serious and cautious Adri slightly furrowed his brows, scrutinizing Galos.

On Galos, he sensed a faint, yet extremely powerful residual aura, sharp beyond compare, not something an ordinary enemy could leave behind; it must have been an extremely powerful being.

Facing the gazes of the three Metal Dragons, Galos walked closer with steady steps.

He casually lifted his hand, brushing off nonexistent dust from his shoulder and arm, his movements unhurried.

"It’s nothing serious, just some trivial little wounds that’ll heal soon."

He finished speaking in a flat tone, pausing slightly, as if he just remembered, and in a casual manner akin to discussing the weather, he lightly added.

"Oh, right, I just killed a legend over at the Silent Plain in the wilderness."

"The Sword Qi that guy exploded with before dying was a bit troublesome; I haven’t had the chance to completely dispel it."

Galos maintained a calm demeanor, his tone unwavering, as if discussing a trivial matter.

However, the content of his words was like a thunderbolt.

Upon hearing him, Selena’s eyes widened instantly, and her mouth slightly opened in shock, as if she could fit a dragon egg in it.

Adri’s pupils contracted abruptly, and for the first time, a clear look of astonishment appeared on his stern face.

He even doubted if he had heard wrong, slowly saying, "You just said... you killed what?"

Galos still maintained his composed posture, saying, "A human legend, to be exact, a Legendary Sword Saint." After confirming, he paused, and with a bit of sentiment, he said, "Truly deserving of the awe of the world, legendary lives are indeed formidable."

"I spent quite a bit of time to kill him."

Deborah, knowing when to play along, gasped cooperatively.

"Wow! Galos, you’re amazing!"

In truth, she wasn’t as surprised internally.

Because in Deborah’s mind, anything Galos did that defied the heavens seemed only natural.

At this moment, her exclamation was more about playing her part, satisfying that tiny hint of vanity in Galos.

Selena: "..."

Adri: "..."

The two mature Metal Dragons instantly went silent.

With their experience, they could easily tell that this young Red Iron Dragon was clearly, in a low-key manner, showcasing his achievements.

To say Galos shared traits with ordinary Giant Dragons, it was probably his slight vanity, occasionally flaunting his powerful strength or proud accomplishments like a peacock spreading its feathers.

Moreover, the key point is.

He isn’t boasting; he genuinely has the hard-earned achievements to show off.

"Killing a true legend... it’s unimaginable, even across the five Dragon Domains, no dragon at this age could accomplish such a feat."

Adri thought.

He opened his mouth, wanting to say something.

Maybe to ask more about the battle or to express the Silver Dragon’s way of congratulating with a hint of caution, but in the end, all the words prepared stuck in his throat, only materializing into a slight nod of acknowledgment.

The Silver Dragon knew well that Galos wasn’t the type to speak recklessly and exaggerate on such matters.

He was also acutely aware of how high the difficulty was to counter-kill a true legend without being one himself.

But he could never have imagined how terrifyingly fast the growth of the Red Iron Dragon could be.

Thinking back carefully, when the Red Iron Dragon was about level 14, he himself was already at level 19.

Now, he had advanced to level 20, but Galos had soared all the way up, also reaching level 20, matching him level-wise! More terrifying was that the other could kill legends.

This growth rate is truly terrifying.

"Why didn’t I adopt Galos back then?"

The Silver Dragon Adri’s heart surged once again with a profound sense of regret.

However, when his peripheral vision caught his own daughter Deborah gazing at Galos, that regret was slowly replaced by a sense of magnanimity.
