In an instant, the fiery-red dragon eyes narrowed into vertical slits, staring fixedly at Jona Velli, filled with possessiveness and greed.
The white dragon mouth curled slightly. Seeing Friel's reaction, Jona Velli knew that half the battle was already won. As for the other half... "Hehe, setting aside how you found out, even if there really are gold coins, do you think you'd give them to me?"
Friel wasn't stupid. On the contrary, as the head of the Five-Color Dragons, her intelligence was the highest. It was just that her formidable strength meant the Red Dragon usually didn't like thinking about complex solutions, preferring to just charge in and get it over with.
Combining their seven years together, Jona Velli's impression of Friel was that this girl was pure scum. She didn't act like a White Dragon-Silver Dragon hybrid at all, but more like a cross between a Green Dragon in White Dragon skin and a human conspirator. However, she was sometimes alright—cute, good to be around, but never to be fully trusted.
Jona Velli laughed it off.
"Oh my~ Do I look like that kind of dragon to you?"
Friel remained silent, but Jona Velli understood her meaning from her expression and gaze—Are you not exactly that kind of dragon?
"Fine, fine. Come if you want, or don't. I'm leaving if you're not coming."
Jona Velli spread her claws, looking indifferent.
Seeing Jona Velli preparing to leave, Friel sighed.
"Fine, I'll reluctantly accompany you to have a look. Treat it as a stroll to clear my head."
Hearing this, a look of joy appeared on Jona Velli's face.
"Really? That's great then. About the gold coins... how about we forget about them?"
Friel curled her lip.
"I believe you wouldn't be shameless to that extent, right?"
...Under Medusa's lead, the two dragons saw Little Shunzi, who had returned to report.
After several years of development, all the White Crystal Knights were now clad in iron armor, and White Crystal City had long since entered the Iron Age.
"Greetings, Great Master, My Lady."
"Little Shunzi, why didn't you report directly to me through our bloodline connection?"
Panic flashed across Little Shunzi's face.
"In response to Great Master, it's because I was afraid of disturbing you."
"What kind of bizarre logic is that? Do you think having Medusa report doesn't disturb me?"
Little Shunzi's expression stiffened.
"I... I..."
"Forget it, lead the way. Don't waste time here."
"Yes..."
The group flew toward the northwest of the Slumbering Forest... Four hours of travel passed quickly, and under Little Shunzi's lead, they descended into the dense forest where White Crystal Knights were stationed.
Seeing the arrival of Jona Velli and the others, these Dependents knelt one after another.
"Greetings, Great Master, My Lady!"
Jona Velli ignored their actions, looking instead toward a cave in the distance.
Her crystal-blue dragon eyes narrowed slightly. She could clearly sense intense elemental fluctuations inside, and the mana concentration was unnaturally high.
