Chapter 449: Got Them From The Ruins

Chapter 449: Got Them From The Ruins

Mount Creation, on the outskirts.

“Do you really intend to return to the royal city now, Mayor Gerant?”

A group of people in Monte Town looked eagerly at Gerant, who had packed his luggage and appeared to be about to embark on a long journey. Their expressions were filled with apprehension.

“That is correct. We agreed that after Young Master Watson leaves for the Royal Academy, he will visit the Ptolemy family! Young Master Watson has left the World Creation Mountain for half a year. Even if I leave now, it will have no effect.”

Watson had only been at the Royal Academy for a month when he left Mount Creation. Unfortunately, the time on the mountain had increased tenfold, so nearly a year had passed.

In addition, Lubin, the mayor of Torch Town, was also there.

Gerant lifted his head to gaze up at the sky. Lubin was in midair, a few pairs of different colored wings spread out on his back. He was standing on top of a massive black hole in the sky, and his wings were covered in various forms of combat aura.

A young girl with a face that resembled Watson stood near the hole. A faint illusory vortex wound around the young girl’s face. She opened her arms and created a dark tunnel that led to an unknown location. A massive dragon was in the tunnel. It soared and emitted a terrifying roar, its entire body covered in a nebula, each scale shining like a diamond.

The girl who kept the passage open was the girl transformed by the World Transformation Mirror. She was maintaining the passage while asking Lubin and Gerant, “Hey, Mayor Gerant and Mayor Lubin, do you want to leave or not? Even though I have the ability to connect to any location on the planet, teleporting a diamond-tier dragon to the royal city is a difficult task for me. I will have to close the passage in a few seconds if you do not leave now.”

“Leave? Who says we will not leave? Gerant, can you please hurry up? This is a fantastic opportunity. Globe has opened the passage to the Royal Academy, based on Young Master Watson’s orders. If you keep dragging your feet, I will leave on my own.”

Hearing Lubin’s words, Gerant returned his gaze to the citizens in front of him, took a deep breath, and waved his hand. “Everyone, I am going to the royal city now. I will be staying in the royal city for a while. I am not sure when I will be able to go back to Mount Creation. You might have to wait a few years to see me. Please do not miss me too much! I will get to see Young Master Watson in the royal city. If you have anything to say or bring to Young Master Watson, I can help you get the message to him.”

“Mayor Gerant, that is what I have been waiting for you to say! You are free to stay in the capital for as long as you like. Actually, we will not miss you all that much. We do miss Young Master Watson, though.”

“We have prepared the things we wanted to bring to Young Master Watson. For example, the diamond-tier weapons produced from the Wish for the World ring. There are so many that Mount Creation is nearly full. Send a batch to Young Master Watson right away so he can refine even more powerful weapons.”

“The water from the Spring of Life has recovered significantly in the years since Young Master Watson left. We will not make potions with water from the Spring of Life. If we drink it too quickly, it will freeze our own strength. You are welcome to send that water to Young Master Watson.”

“I am not sure if Phoenix eggs and platinum-tier magical beast meat are available in the capital. I will have to trouble Mayor Gerant to help us to get these Phoenix eggs and magical beast meat to Young Master Watson. We also have sun and moon gems from the trees.”

As they threw each item to Gerant, the residents of the town were all chattering. They did not appear to be leaving. Instead, they seemed to be waiting for Gerant to leave so they could bring those items out.

Diamond-tier weapons and armor, tons of sun and moon gems, water from the Spring of Life by magic in the air, and other miscellaneous edible items were sent out. Every item was extremely valuable.

Gerant’s lips twitched as he stared at the mountain of supplies in front of him. He would not have said anything to help transport the supplies if he had known earlier. Those guys were extremely disrespectful to him. The supplies were most likely several tons in weight. He might not have been able to take them away if he did not have the strength of a platinum-tier elite.

“Oh, yes, Mayor Gerant, we still have some things to give to Young Master Watson! Young Master Watson had sown wheat on the farmland, and it had matured. The wheat has already been successfully upgraded to platinum-tier due to various farmers using the Wish for the World ring’s ability to upgrade them. It would greatly increase one’s speed and strength after consuming it. Young Master Watson had left in a rush, having yet to sample the wheat. Why don’t you bring some for Young Master Watson, Mayor Gerant?”

“It is difficult for Globe to keep the passage open. I have to leave now! You might want to deliver the items to Young Master Watson, but it is too late for that. I will deliver those things next time.”

Gerant refused the residents’ request with a cough. He flew toward the empty hole in the sky as if fleeing and used his combat aura to grab a small mountain-like item.

It was one thing for those people to give him a mountain-like object, but they wanted him to take a piece of land near the border. That was too ridiculous. If he did not run then, when could he?

..

Simultaneously, in the City of Steel, not far from the border.

At that moment, a terrifying dragon’s roar erupted from the city’s most famous structure, the Tower of Babel.

“The Death Omen Star Dragon’s voice is coming from the top floor. Is it possible that someone has ascended to the 100th floor?”

A group of adventurers stood in the upward spiral passage, panting as they leaned against the wall, staring at the tops of their heads, perplexed.

“It is not possible. We are no match for the angel-like soldiers stationed on each floor, let alone the diamond-tier Death Omen Star Dragon’s on the 100th floor!” A male member of the adventurer team looked at the angel-like soldier, who stood motionless with a long sword above his head, like a statue of an angel soldier. His eyes were filled with fear.

“We are now on the 50th floor, which is a great accomplishment for all of the City of Steel’s adventurers! There are only a few daring teams that can compete with us. Currently, the Blood Rose adventurer team with the most levels cleared is only on the 80th level. They are only a few levels away from completing the 100th level.” Another member spoke up.

“If no one made it to the 100th floor, why did the Death Omen Star Dragon roar?”

“Ignore it. It is pointless for us to think about it right now. Let’s pray that we will receive a good reward in the Tower of Babel in the upcoming fights. We can obtain more weapons to equip ourselves as we progress through the levels.”

After a few sarcastic remarks, the adventurers’ team resumed their ascent.

A team of four stood at the entrance to the 80th floor, a higher position above them. They could see the end of the Tower of Babel. At that moment, a massive black passageway appeared above the tower, and a massive black dragon with four mysterious stars on its head was being sucked into it.

“The Death Omen Star Dragon has always guarded the 100th floor, but it has now vanished. Could something have happened to the Tower of Babel?” A young man in a beautiful priest robe pushed his monocle upward, perplexed.

“Leon, Young Master Watson built the Tower of Babel. If anything happened to the Tower of Babel, it had to be due to Young Master Watson.”

“Do you still remember the bet we made with Young Master Watson?” the girl standing next to him said. She was dressed in a fiery red feather coat and had freckles on her face. “We can go to Young Master Watson’s side and become a guard as long as we clear the Tower of Babel within the agreed-upon time frame. We have been fighting in the Tower of Babel for a long time, but we are still on the 80th floor. That is truly unfortunate for us. I am afraid the young master is aware of our ineptness and is dissatisfied with us. That is why he called the dragon away.”

“We have to look on the bright side, Annie. Young Master Watson is a man who follows through on his promises. There is no reason for him to break his promise before the deadline. Perhaps he has another reason for summoning the dragon! We have already done our best to clear the 80th floor. Those angel soldiers are true monsters. We have gained a lot of experience and are constantly getting stronger. Those soldiers are also growing in strength. We have the blessing of the Tower of Babel, no matter what. Otherwise, those soldiers would have stopped our advancement. They are indeed worthy of being Young Master Watson’s soldiers.”

The adventurer group on the 80th floor was none other than the Blood Rose adventure team. Not long after Watson left, the team had raised their Adventurers’ Association level to platinum-tier. That was the kingdom’s first platinum-tier adventurer team.

Arthur was the one who spoke at that time. Arthur’s body was much fuller than it had been a month before. His muscles were as hard as granite. Simultaneously, stubble appeared on his face, and he appeared much more mature. His past frivolous attitude could hardly be seen.

“Let’s get this party started. Whatever the significance of Young Master Watson’s walking away from that dragon is, what we are going to do has not changed.”

Gerant stood in front of the three of them, holding a longsword in one hand and a shield in the other. His entire being was like a barrier in front of everyone. As he fixedly stared at an angel carrying a long spear on his shoulder, his eyes flickered with a sharp sword-like light.

“Only by defeating the Blackmoon Knights, and demonstrating that we are stronger than them, will we be able to join Young Master Watson’s side. We should not waste time waiting for that chance. After Young Master Watson summons the Death Omen Star Dragon, we should seize the moment because that is when we will most likely be able to complete the level.”

You are correct. Let’s keep fighting.”

The group erupted into a powerful aura comparable to a platinum-tier elite upon hearing Grant’s words. They were clearly able to communicate with one another and proceeded to a higher level.

…

At the Royal Academy.

Following the dragon’s roar, two completely different dragons descended from the sky. One of them was armored in diamond scales, and its entire body was encased in golden nebula glitter. The other was completely black, and when it appeared, it completely covered the sky. It was as if the blackness had turned into death.

The appearance of the two massive dragons elicited a chorus of applause throughout the royal academy.

“What kind of dragon is that? Its entire body is pitch-black, and it looks terrifying. Just looking at it gives me the illusion that I’m facing death. This dragon shouldn’t only be in platinum-tier! It isn’t just the pitch-black dragon. The sparkling dragon beside it also looked extraordinary. Is that a nebula wrapped around its entire body? It looked so beautiful.”

“Watson does, in fact, raise dragons. He has two massive diamond-tier dragons! That is far too frightening.”

Many members of the Royal Academy stared at the sky in disbelief. It did not matter if they were regular students or those chosen to be Dragon Knights.

Everyone in the Holy Dragon Kingdom knew that only the royal family could sign a treaty with the Dragon Clan. The Dragon Clan was a noble group. It would have been nearly impossible for an individual to sign a treaty with the Dragon Clan. Even though the Winter Nation had proposed a treaty toward the dragons, it was rejected. One could only imagine the difficulty of that task.

“Those two dragons look very strange. They do not resemble any of the dragons we have seen before. Are they wild dragons who have strayed away from the Dragon Clan or new dragons?”

Fafnir’s eyes flashed as she stared at the two dragons in the sky. As a dignified Dragon King, she was well aware of how many dragons existed in the Dragon Clan and what each dragon looked like. However, she had no idea who the two dragons were.

“Watson, you have consistently exceeded my expectations.”

King Landhar III sighed. He pinched a corner of the throne and exerted a little force! ‘You raised two dragons secretly under my nose in my kingdom, and I didn’t know anything about it. You are capable, indeed! It appears that I will need to dispatch personnel to the border to conduct a thorough investigation. You must have border guards too. I’m afraid you have done a lot of work in places I am not aware of.’

The Diamond Star Dragon and the Death Omen Star Dragon had already landed as everyone’s reactions varied. They formed a circle around Watson in the center, one in front and one behind. Except for Fafnir, the powerful aura they emitted made all the other dragons feel threatened—they continued to retreat.

“My dragons have arrived, Vice-captain Julius. May I ask if I am qualified to accompany you to the Dragon Lair now?”

Watson raised his hand, and the two massive dragons shrank into two small dragons, only as long as his arms. They curled up like two obedient kittens on Watson’s left and right shoulders.

“You—”

Julius opened his mouth to say something, but he was speechless.

Was Watson not qualified to accompany them?

Watson, on the other hand, had two dragons that appeared to be very docile. They were Watson’s pets. Even Dragon Knights such as themselves could only have one dragon in their lifetime. It was extremely difficult to find a new dragon after one died, like what had happened to him.

Julius was unable to accept that. Watson killed and ate his dragon, but he was still able to gain the Dragon Clan’s favor. He even kept massive dragons as pets. It was exasperating.

Even Julius could not speak, let alone those from the recruits from the Royal Academy. They were unconcerned because Watson was not qualified for the test. Who would have guessed that Watson did not even have to meet the qualifications for the test to have a giant dragon? Watson was not lying when he stated that the test was unnecessary. The Dragon Clan’s dragons, according to Watson, might not even be as powerful as the ones he had raised.

“If Vice-captain Julius has no further questions, then let us proceed to the Dragon Lair.”

Watson stroked the small dragons on his shoulders. He had not seen those two dragons in a long time. He missed them terribly, and it was clear that the two dragons felt the same way. They rubbed their heads against his hand as he stroked them. They would occasionally open their mouths and spit out a small ball of dragon breath to represent their happiness.

“Wait a moment. Look at the sky. That black hole has not vanished. Something appears to have fallen through.”

Just as everyone was getting ready to leave, a sharp-eyed individual pointed to the sky and cried out in surprise.

Many people turned to look at the sky after hearing that person’s voice. The hole above their heads did not close after the appearance of the two massive dragons. Instead, it appeared to be growing. Watson’s brow furrowed in puzzlement at that scene.

‘What is going on? I only requested Globe to send the two dragons. Why did the passage not end after the dragons came through? Is it possible that Globe made a mistake, or did something unexpected happen?’

While Watson was thinking, two figures appeared in the black hole. One of them had golden hair and was dressed in beautiful gold clothes. The other person was in red. He had red hair and was slightly plump. That was not the main point; the main point was that they were surrounded by a massive halo. Three different colored wings were on their backs. They came in the colors red, yellow, blue, green, black, and white. They represented the six elements—earth, fire, water, wind, light, and darkness.

A chaotic-colored airflow with no eyeball flowed behind the wings of those six elements. It exuded a powerful sense of oppression.

“What kind of creature is that? They looked like the Abdedor family’s Stella when she appeared in the Royal Academy during the day. Are they angels?” The students looked at Stella and Rose Weiser in shock.

Stella stared at the sky, her mouth agape, unable to speak. ‘Those two guys are angels, but based on their auras, they are far more powerful than me. Are they ancient creatures that escaped from some ruins? But didn’t the angel race go extinct tens of thousands of years ago? What exactly is going on?’

While everyone was stunned, the two angels flew down from the black hole. During the angels’ descent, everyone could see that they were carrying treasures the size of a small mountain on their heads. They saw diamond-tier weapons, armor, and sun fruits. There were also massive eggs surrounded by flames and emitting Phoenix cries and magical beast meat with intense energy fluctuations. Those were items that the royal city’s residents had never seen before.

The two angels landed on the ground and retracted their wings in an instant. They piled the treasures they held in their hands on the ground.

“What is going on? Are those two angels here to deliver treasures to the kingdom?”

After seeing that scene, many people reflected on it. They initially assumed that those two angels were hostile. However, when they saw the two angels place the treasures on the ground, they seemed to not be in the mood. After all, who would want to carry so many treasures before a battle? People were taken aback by each of the treasures.

“Did you create those two angels, King Landhar III?” Fafnir asked. Even though those two angels came from the black hole, she felt they had little to do with Watson. After all, angels were a legendary race. They were referred to as gods’ servants. Only those related to the gods were qualified to summon the angels.

Furthermore, the kingdom appeared to have recently received a windfall. Tens of millions of gold coins were freely given to the Dragon Clan, and those angels held treasures in their hands. It led to speculation that the angels were related to King Landhar III.

“In a way,” King Landhar III responded ambiguously. In his heart, he was also wondering about that. Did Sidi create those two angels? Sidi was the only goddess who had descended in the entire Holy Dragon Kingdom. She was the only person who could have made the angels, but what was Sidi’s purpose in doing that? Sidi would not have given so many treasures away for no reason at all.

The two angels landed on the ground and looked around, perplexing King Landhar III. “It has been a long time since I have returned to the capital,” they murmured excitedly. This place still looks the same. It is not like the atmosphere on Mount Creation. Is that the Royal Academy? There are quite a few people here.”

The two angels’ gazes were drawn to Watson’s direction in the crowd as they spoke. The two of them then started walking in Watson’s direction.

They both passed by King Landhar III’s throne. The King rose to his feet and asked, “Who are you? What are you doing in the Holy Dragon Kingdom?”

“Is this the Holy Dragon Kingdom? You must be King Landhar III, the current monarch. Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Gerant. I am a member of the Ptolemy family.”

After King Landhar III stood up, the golden-haired man among the two angels bowed his head. The crowd erupted in response to his words.

“He claimed to be part of the Ptolemy family. Is that right?”

“How long has the Ptolemy family had an angel?”

Many people were taken aback by Gerant’s words. Casey from the Ptolemy family suddenly stood up on the back of a massive dragon and asked, “Gerant? From the Ptolemy family, Uncle Gerant? It’s me, I’m Casey.”

“You are correct, Young Master Casey. It’s me. I have no idea Young Master Casey is all grown up.” Gerant smiled as he looked at Casey.

There were also exclamations in the opposite direction. “Are you Lubin from the Campbell family?”

Some Campbell family members were chosen to be Dragon Knights. They recognized the person with Gerant and could not help but inquire about him. Lily was one of them.

“Miss Lily, you are correct. I remember carrying you when I went to see the clan leader when I was younger.” Lubin’s lips tightened.

With the confirmation of the witnesses, everyone no longer doubted Gerant and Lubin’s identities. They were taken aback. It was one thing for an angel to appear in the Ptolemy family, but how did both the Ptolemy and Campbell families get an angel each? Furthermore, they had a large number of treasures between them. Did they get those treasures from ancient ruins?

King Landhar III had the same opinion. “So the two of you are from the Ptolemy and Campbell families. It looks like you have not only become angels, but you also have a powerful strength comparable to a platinum-tier elite. You have made a significant contribution to the Holy Dragon Kingdom’s combat strength. I shall reward you lavishly! But first, why don’t you tell us how you became angels? Also, are those treasures for me?”

“Your Majesty, we became angels because of Young Master Watson, so we should thank Young Master Watson! We may have belonged to the Campbell or Ptolemy families in the past, but now we are just minor figures under Young Master Watson’s guidance. We didn’t bring those treasures here to offer to the kingdom; rather, we brought them to Young Master Watson from the border,” Lubin spoke modestly.

Then, he pointed to the mountain of treasures in front of him and said, “These are not particularly rare. They are simply weapons and armor that will not be useful at the border. We have some fruits from the trees, as well as some slightly better-quality meat and eggs.”

Useless weapons and armor?

The luster of the weapons on the ground rivaled the platinum-tier weapons that had recently appeared in the kingdom. In other words, those weapons were at the very top of platinum-tier and could have even been diamond-tier. Such weapons were unnecessary. What weapons were used at the border?

There were also the aforementioned fruits growing on the trees. They resembled the sun and moon fruits that the King had distributed during the exhibition. How did those fruits grow so close to the border? Could the border be split from the Holy Dragon Kingdom and is now in the Southern Elven Kingdom?

Many people did not recognize the so-called high-tier meat and eggs, but they could tell that they were extraordinary.

“Is that the meat of a platinum-tier magical beast?” someone shouted. Everyone looked up to see the person standing on the dragon’s back. It was Charlotte from the Saint Laurent family.

Charlotte, like Lily, had been chosen to be a Dragon Knight recruit. She could not help but widen her eyes as she stared at the magical beast meat on the ground. She was susceptible to the fluctuations emitted by magical beasts of that level because she had eaten similar meat before.

“And the eggs have flames burning them. Are they the Phoenix eggs that Watson frequently mentioned?”

Lily added her two cents. She nearly drooled when she saw the meat.

“What are they?”

Their gaze was drawn to a jade-green river hovering in the sky. The river was encased in magic and resembled fine amber. It had starlight, and just looking at it from a distance gave the impression that it was alive. That river was the most eye-catching of all the treasures, and only a handful of people knew about that.

“That is the Spring of Life. Without a doubt, that is the legendary treasure that has been guarded for generations by the Elven Kingdom in the Forest of Eternity—the Spring of Life!”

Stella and Rose jumped out of the crowd and stared at the spring above their heads, their lips trembling with delight.

They had doubted Watson when he said he had water from the Spring of Life, but they knew he was not lying when they saw it. The water had exceeded their expectations, stretching for dozens of meters. That spring had the potential to generate tens of thousands of Blessings of the Gods and Demons. That was some concept, was it not?

Everyone was initially disappointed that Watson had not been chosen to be a Dragon Knight. However, their feelings of regret were utterly replaced by shock at that moment. They had not expected Watson to be so wealthy. If they were the ones with such wealth, a mere Dragon Knight position was unimportant to them.

At that moment, those who were ecstatic after they were chosen as candidates for the Dragon King recruits quieted down. If given the option, they would prefer to obtain those items over becoming a Dragon Knight because any of those items were far more challenging to get than the opportunity to become a Dragon Knight.

‘Phoenix eggs and water from the Spring of Life? Really? Aren’t those too precious? Is the border so prosperous?’

Many people could not stop muttering in their hearts.

“Watson, please explain. What’s going on?” King Landhar III’s eyelids twitched when he learned that those items were not for the kingdom but Watson. He did not even have those resources as a king. When he saw those treasures, he felt greedy. However, according to Gerant and Lubin, those were only their regional specialties.

One could deduce Watson’s wealth from that. The platinum-tier weapons and the sun and moon fruit wine paled in comparison to what was in front of him.

King Landhar III could not figure out how Watson obtained the Phoenix eggs and water from the Spring of Life.

“Well, those items were discovered in an ancient ruin while I was out one winter, and they were obtained from that ruin.”

‘You keep making things up.’

King Landhar III’s pupils constricted. He did not believe anything Watson said. If there were such ancient ruins in the kingdom, he would write his name upside down. “Watson, you got those things, including the Spring of Life, from the ancient ruins?”

“Yes, Your Majesty. I did say that I obtained the Spring of Life in the ancient ruins and the formula that allows a person to become an angel. Gerant and Lubin became angels because of that! The other items, such as the Phoenix Egg and magical beast meat, were left behind because they were what was left when a fight broke out between the magical beasts in the ruins.”

Watson maintained a calm demeanor while spewing nonsense. He cursed silently in his heart. Why were Gerant and Lubin there? He was aware that the two of them intended to visit him in the capital, and he did not mind as they had not visited in a long time. Who would have guessed that they would take advantage of the opportunity to transport the dragons to join him here? They had also brought a large amount of so-called local specialties.

Those who had spent a long time on the mountain might have thought those things were very ordinary.

Outsiders, on the other hand, had a different experience. In other parts of the kingdom, the mere appearance of any of those things was enough to make people go insane.

‘Doesn’t that reveal my strength and trump card?’

At that moment, he heard King Landhar III ask in an odd tone, “Watson, I can’t confirm whether what you said is true or false. I am wondering if the two dragons on your shoulders were discovered in the ruins as well. What kind of dragon could survive there for so long without eating or drinking?”

“I did find the two dragons in the ruins, but they never stopped eating or drinking. The ruins had many platinum-tier magical beasts, Phoenix eggs, and water from the Spring of Life? They eat extremely well.”

“Tell me, Watson, where are those ancient ruins? I need to go take a look.”

“Please accept my apologies, Your Majesty. Those ruins collapsed as soon as I stepped inside, and you can’t go there anymore! There’s nothing I can do even if you wish to enter it, Your Majesty.”

Watson and King Landhar III exchanged responses to each other’s questions. While King Landhar III sneered and suppressed his desire to curse Watson for spewing nonsense, Watson appeared calm.

What did he find in the ancient ruins? Such words could only deceive a child. It did not matter because it could not fool him. In any case, he had already made up his mind. He would send people to the border to investigate what had happened, and he would be able to see all of his doubts at a glance.

“Watson, this is the Dragon Knight’s recruitment process. Is it appropriate for your servant to bring local specialties as a gift? Clearly not. As a punishment for disrupting the process, I will keep those local specialties for the time being.”

King Landhar III waved his hand and issued the order, not wanting to waste any more time with Watson.

“That is a gift from my family, Your Majesty. A gesture of their goodwill. Perhaps you won’t take it and leave them with me?”

“Take it? I am not claiming them as them. I’m only keeping them on your behalf. I will return them if you perform well.”

“I see that as taking, Your Majesty.”

“Watson, stop talking. Leave the royal city with the Dragon Clan. If you dare to say another word, I will take those items and the two dragons on your shoulders.”

“All right.” Watson agreed reluctantly. Gerant and Lubin, who had just arrived, came to Watson’s side and comforted him as if sensing his distress. “Do not worry, Young Master Watson. Those things are not particularly valuable on Mount Creation. Only the water from the Spring of Life is worthwhile. We do have the World Tree, and it can still produce more water.” They sobbed.

Lubin was trying to console him, but before he could finish, Watson had covered his mouth. As he looked around, he silently cursed Lubin for being an idiot.

Watson became aware of everyone’s attention on him in an instant.

“A World Tree? Watson, I had no idea you had a World Tree in your home. It is no surprise you are full of life. Could you please explain what that is? What is the significance of the World Tree?” King Landhar III’s face was warm, and his voice was calm, but anyone could see the storm beneath his facade. If Watson could not respond, King Landhar III might attack him on the spot.

“Is there a World Tree? What kind of World Tree? Did you hear someone say World Tree?” Watson pretended to be dumb by covering Lubin’s mouth.

“I heard it.”

“I heard it as well.”

“Perhaps that Lubin was talking about something else? After all, only the Elven Kingdom has had a World Tree from ancient times. The border could not possibly have a similar one.”

The World Tree was more valuable than any starlight-tier weapon and armor. The World Tree was not only difficult to sustain, but it would only take shape after thousands of years of growth. The long time span was enough to kill the World Tree. There was only one World Tree in the Forest of Eternity. That was also why the leaders of the various kingdoms were willing to pay a high price to strike a deal with the Elven Kingdom to obtain a portion of water from the Spring of Life.

“Okay, I have a World Tree at home. As for how the World Tree was created, well, it was during a particular winter—”

Watson sighed as he noticed everyone did not believe his words.

“During a particular winter, you unintentionally discovered an ancient ruin. You noticed the World Tree as soon as you walked in. The ancient ruin collapsed after you obtained the World Tree. Am I correct?”

“That is correct, Your Majesty. I did not expect you to be so accurate in predicting my experience.” Watson was perplexed.

King Landhar III rubbed the space between his brows with his hand.” I do not want to talk to you anymore, Watson! Lady Fafnir, please bring them to the Dragon Lair for the recruitment test.”

The reason he knew about Watson’s experience ahead of time was quite simple. It was because Watson had said it so often that he had almost memorized it.

“I understand.”

Fafnir regained her composure after King Landhar III spoke and waved her hand. Members from Dragon Clan instantly transformed into massive dragons. They took off from the royal city, followed by the Dragon Knights. “Wait, Your Majesty, I have not finished speaking yet.” Fafnir had thrown Watson onto her back. Unfortunately, no one paid attention to him. Fafnir flew further away, becoming a small black dot in the process.

“Gerant and Lubin, come to my palace later. I have a question for you! Hoen, send these so-called local specialties to the palace.”

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

Lubin and Hoen both concurred. “Your Majesty, what about the ten billion gold coins that Watson needed to develop the potion just now? He had only used one gold coin to refine the potion. I don’t know what to do with them,” Hoen said after a brief pause.

“Send them to the palace as well. I will keep them for him for now! I am pleased to announce that the Dragon Knights’ recruitment process is complete. Thank you for your efforts, everyone. Return to your rooms.”

Then, King Landhar III turned around and asked the guards to assist him in lifting the throne. He hurriedly went back to the palace. Many people were envious of him after witnessing that scene. They could see why King Landhar III was worried. They would be even more concerned if it were them. At the same time, they realized that they would have to work extra hard to please Watson from then on. It was possible that his family’s local specialties would be worth their lifetime’s efforts.
