A Dragon against the Whole World

Let’s not discuss whether it’s correct or not.

At first glance, his statement does seem to have some logic, capable of explaining many incomprehensible twists of fate in this world.

Galos raised an eyebrow at this usually frivolous Brother Long, feeling a newfound respect for him. After the upheaval in the Royal City, it seemed he had grown quite a bit, able to grasp such a seemingly profound theory.

He asked, "How did you come to this realization?"

Then, Gordon puffed up his chest and declared word by word.

"Because, after repeated verification and reflection, I am certain—I, Gordon, am the Dragon destined by fate!"

In the mind network, it was as if an invisible chill wind blew past, plunging everything into silence.

Galos was momentarily speechless, silently retracting his earlier evaluation of Brother Long’s growth.

The next moment, Red Dragon Samantha’s laughter erupted.

"Hahaha! Gordon! Are you telling some lousy Giant Dragon joke? Haha, if you intended to entertain us, you’ve succeeded greatly, I nearly laughed my scales off at your absurd confidence!"

Faced with Samantha’s mockery, Iron Dragon Gordon didn’t get angry, nor did he feel the slightest embarrassment.

Instead, he became even more earnest, beginning to clearly and logically explain and argue his destined fate.

"Think back carefully, don’t my past experiences confirm this point?"

"Haven’t I, whenever facing any situation, always managed to escape unscathed, turning danger into safety, and even profiting from misfortune?"

"For instance, during childhood, I was unfortunately adrift but was adopted by the Lothern Royal Court, accompanying the Princess, enjoying nearly a century of luxury and wealth—isn’t this the favor of destiny?"

"Further example, when the Lothern Royal City was about to fall, on the brink of disaster."

"I originally planned to escape alone to preserve myself, but at the last moment, I hesitated and chose to stay. And it was precisely at this critical juncture that the Saint King reappeared, turning the tide, and Lothern was preserved."

Gordon paused here for a moment, then presented another radical theory.

"I even have a strong feeling that, if I had decisively escaped back then, then... the Saint King might not have appeared, and the Lothern Royal City might truly have fallen."

He seriously said, "In other words, the existence of the Saint King, whether he appeared at that moment, might have a predestined connection with whether I decided to flee the Royal City."

"While I hadn’t made my final decision, he might be alive, or not alive."

"He was in a state of superposition determined by me!"

"If I left, he would not exist; if I stayed, he would exist."

Once again, the mind network sank into a dead silence.

This time, not only was Solrog silent, saying nothing, even the usually sharp-tongued Red Dragon Samantha, who excelled at mocking Gordon, was momentarily speechless at Gordon’s incomprehensible idea, not knowing how to refute it.

Or, they didn’t know where to start ridiculing.

"This guy, surrounding his destiny theory, has formed his own coherent logic."

Galos felt an indescribable wordlessness within.

"Why are all these Dragons around me so full of unique skills?"

This thought involuntarily flashed by.

"Could it be, hmm... that I am actually the true Dragon destined by fate?"

As soon as this absurd idea emerged, Galos chuckled at himself, shaking his head lightly, dispelling such a baseless thought.
