Chapter 2: New Century (Epilogue)
Chapter 767: Heading to the Northern Territory
After a while, Connie, who had calmed down a bit, looked at Xi Wei with a face full of resentment.
“Darling, if there’s anything you’re dissatisfied with about Dragon Dragon, you can say so, but really, there’s no need to take me to the Titan God Race’s territory… Woo woo woo, aren’t you trying to kill me!”
Connie hugged Xi Wei’s thigh, snot and tears all over her face, smearing onto Xi Wei’s leg.
Xi Wei looked at Connie’s cowardly appearance and couldn’t help but put his hand to his forehead. “Uh, is it that serious?”
“Of course, of course, of course it’s extremely, extremely serious!!”
Connie hugged Xi Wei’s leg and shook it vigorously, her resentful eyes looking up at Xi Wei as if he were a heartless man about to push his wife into a fiery pit.
“Master, giant dragons and Titans are sworn enemies! Woo woo woo! It’s said that Dragon Island robs the Northern Territory every year, and the Titans in the Northern Territory also attack Dragon Island. Those terrifying Titan giants love to eat roasted dragon meat and roasted dragon eggs, especially me, who is tender, small, beautiful, gentle, good at serving my master, skilled in all sorts of tricks, understanding even if it’s shallow, and a well-behaved dragon who whimpers!”
Connie’s tone grew stranger as she spoke, her pretty face gradually flushing with a hint of red, and she became coy and hesitant.
Xi Wei: “……(￣ω￣;)”
This lewd dragon was never serious.
She complained, she acted spoiled.
Why was she being narcissistic now?
Xi Wei pinched Connie’s soft cheek and said with a chuckle, “Don’t be afraid. I’m quite familiar with those Titans. They won’t hurt you. Besides, even if they want to eat roasted dragon meat, they’ll have to get my permission first, right? I’ll protect you~”
Connie blinked her big, watery eyes. As her face was being pinched, her words were a little slurred.
“Really?”
“Really. So, in order not to be eaten as food by the Titans, what are you going to do?”
Xi Wei chuckled sinisterly and began to guide Connie’s thoughts.
“I should fly higher so they can’t catch me.”
Connie pretended not to understand Xi Wei’s point and answered with a straight face.
“What’s the use of flying high against legendary-grade, demigod-level Titans? One anti-flight spell array and you’ll be down!” Xi Wei reached out and pinched Connie’s other cheek.
“Then, then I’ll kneel and beg for mercy!!”
Xi Wei: “(￣ー￣)……”
“What if kneeling and begging for mercy doesn’t work?”
Connie’s big eyes filled with tears upon hearing this. She said tearfully, “Woo woo woo, if kneeling and begging for mercy doesn’t work, then I can only be master’s dragon in the next life, woo woo woo. Master, you have to wait for me. You won’t find another dragon, will you? Let me tell you, they aren’t as good as me, they don’t have as many tricks…”
“Can’t you think about pleasing your master?”
Xi Wei said with frustration, “Your master, the King of Winter, the King of Conquest of the North Continent, a being invincible below the demigod level, shouldn’t you be begging me to protect you?!”
“Oh~”
The tears on Connie’s face disappeared, and she said meaningfully, “So, Master wants to have some fun? No problem, Master. Where do we have fun now? The kitchen, the hot spring, the bedroom, the garden, in the sky. You can choose~”
Xi Wei snorted coldly and directly picked Connie up, saying with a sinister smile,
“I choose immediate execution!”
…
The originally scheduled departure time was postponed to the next morning due to Connie’s punishment for disrespect.
Bai Yao changed into a close-fitting outfit suitable for action, and her long hair was tied into a neat and capable ponytail, making her look heroic and spirited. Ruo Yi put on armor, and just standing there exuded an aura of majestic coldness. Even though her appearance was beautiful, the players only looked from afar, afraid to approach and talk to her.
Connie had already transformed into her dragon form. In front of her, a basin of meat and a basin of berries were placed, and she was devouring them.
No one knew how long the trip to the Northern Territory would take, so all the maids came out to see them off.
Lori and Nina also came.
The Earth Goddess took an hour off.
It took a lot of effort to exit that state of single-mindedness and then recover. However, even so, upon hearing that Xi Wei would be away from Winter City for a long time, Nina temporarily stopped her divine trial.
In just a few days of hardship, she appeared more mature and stable than before, with little of the childishness left on her face. Her lips were pursed, and her gray eyes flashed with resilient light.
Bai Yao and You Ye, like two sisters, held hands, making their final farewells.
However, the content of their conversation was somewhat indecent.
“Bai Yao, I’m so envious of you. You can have fun with Master on the road again, and with Sister Ruo Yi there, can’t you unlock more tricks?”
Bai Yao felt a headache coming on. “Hey! You’re going to get me killed! You Ye, can you not mention… in broad daylight?”
“Okay, okay, let’s change the topic then. So, Little Bai Bai, I’m very curious, your tolerance…”
Bai Yao, unable to bear it any longer, directly covered You Ye’s mouth.
If she let this unrestrained cat-girl keep chattering, she wouldn’t be able to leave today.
When the bell of Winter City rang three times in succession.
Xi Wei, along with Ruo Yi and Bai Yao, mounted Connie. Ruo Yi stood at the very front, holding the Sword of Time, a faint golden glow enveloping Connie’s entire body.
“Your Majesty King, come back soon!”
“We still want to eat Your Majesty’s shaved ice!”
From the distant tower.
A group of Little Radishes caught the gentle morning light and, under the care of Clemon, hopped and waved goodbye to Xi Wei.
“No, no, it’s not shaved ice, it’s shaved ice!”
“I meant killing coins~”
“Nana, you stepped on my foot! I hate you!”
“Hehe, sorry, let me rub it for you~”
…
The bell-like voices carried far.
Xi Wei smiled slightly and waved at the tower.
The next second, Connie soared into the sky.
Under Ruo Yi’s enhancement, the entire giant dragon transformed into a golden meteor, streaking across the sky. In a short while, it had vanished without a trace, leaving only a long contrail.
The Little Radishes pointed at the sky with wide eyes.
“Woah!!”
“So Sister Connie’s poop is white~”
“What a long poop…”
Fortunately, Connie had already flown far away.
If she had heard this, she might have plummeted from the sky.
…
Winter City.
In a dimly lit room.
A group of black-robed figures were gathered, looking at a bloody, intricately patterned altar and plotting something. Their clothes were very strange, as if they were clad in a layer of black feathers, making them look like large, human-shaped crows from afar.
“Knock, knock, knock.”
“Come in.”
The voice was hoarse and raspy.
It sounded like dry bones grinding against tombstones.
One of the strange figures raised his head, revealing a pair of round, glowing, oddly blood-red eyes.
The decayed wooden door pushed open.
Another strange figure walked in.
“The King of Winter has left.”
He said coldly.
“Is the situation confirmed?”
“Confirmed.”
“Then good.” The pale faces of the figures sitting around the table suddenly curved into a ferocious grin. “The plan begins!”
