Chapter 406

Leon was taken aback and pondered Constantine's words carefully.

That does seem to make some sense.

Seeing Leon remain silent, Constantine snorted coldly.

"Since you have no reason to convince me, please leave."

Leon's brain was racing. Just as Old Kang was about to see the guest off, at the critical moment, a 'ding' sounded, and an invisible light bulb lit up above his head.

"If you help me, I will give you the specific instructions on how to use the Primal Power."

"I'll think about it."

"An entire library filled with so many Primal Magic Secret Manuals."

When do we set off?

In his early years with the Dragon Slayer Army, his master forbade Leon from interfering too much in political and leadership matters.

Even so, General Leon still learned a key skill in the workplace:

Making empty promises!

114 General Leon on the Stage

Speedrun of the Empire dungeon in a group: 3/3

When Losweiser saw Leon emerge from the woods with a smile on his face, she knew that the man had successfully persuaded Constantine.

Furthermore, the methods used to persuade the other party are absolutely beyond what a normal person could conceive of.

The Queen crossed her arms, a faint smile playing on her lips, her gaze following Leon until he stood before her before she spoke.

"He said yes?"

Leon nodded. "Of course."

"How did you convince him? Was it like last time?"

"Hmm... no, moral blackmail doesn't work on Constantine, so I used another tactic."

Losweiser raised an eyebrow, immediately intrigued.

It should be noted that the infamous Crimson Flame Dragon King is notoriously stubborn and unyielding, and is an absolute egoist.

Leon and Constantine are not strangers who meet by chance; it would be a miracle if they didn't start fighting when they met.

But it was precisely under these circumstances that Leon managed to get Constantine to agree to help him without resorting to moral blackmail.

Losweiser was genuinely curious about how that scoundrel had managed to do it.

"I told him that once the empire's troubles are resolved, I will give him an entire library of Primal Magic Secret Manuals."

Losweiser blinked. "But we only have one copy of 'Soul Judgment,' where did we get so many other secret manuals?"

Leon shrugged. "Let's make the promises first, and talk about it after this is all over."

Losweiser shook her head helplessly and smiled, "After so many years in my Silver Dragon Sanctuary, you've certainly learned quite a few skills other than fighting."

Low emotional intelligence: Making empty promises

High emotional intelligence: setting great goals for achieving cooperation.

General Leon now realized that as long as you talk nonsense, you can thrive in a workplace like the Empire.

No wonder when we graduated from the Dragon Slaying Academy, so many people were scrambling to get clerical jobs in the Imperial City. It was safe and lucrative, much more carefree than the Dragon Slayer Leon who risked their lives on the battlefield.

However, Leon didn't regret it at all.

The world I've witnessed through years of fighting in the north and south is something I could never see while sitting in an office.

More importantly, sitting in an office doesn't mean you'll have Dragon Wife can give birth to your babies.

When the child was mentioned, Leon said,

"Let's go home and see our daughters one last time before we go to the Empire."

After all, this trip was somewhat dangerous, otherwise Leon wouldn't have risked coming to Old Kang for help.

Therefore, a "farewell before the battle" is still necessary.

It's not about setting a flag, nor is it about saying that this trip to the Empire is a one-way trip.

Leon and Losweiser were just looking for peace of mind.

Their daughters are the most precious people in their hearts. No matter when or where, as long as they think that their darlings are waiting for their Mom Daddy come home, they will be able to overcome any crisis.

Losweiser nodded, then transformed into Dragon form, carrying Leon into the night sky, and flew rapidly towards home.

"So after you ended the Dragon civil war, the Dragon Race also ushered in a century-long period of peace?"

In the dark golden waterway, Noah's History Classroom is running smoothly.

The White Dragon lay lazily in front of the girl and spoke slowly.

"Yes. That was the era when the Dragon Race was most united and at its peak. It was free from internal and external troubles, rich in resources, and its overall combat level was a level higher than that of the current Dragon Race."

Noa shrugged. "But the Dragon Race is not only internally divided, but also engaged in various wars, especially the battlefield with the Human Empire, which is particularly brutal."

"It seems that during my ten thousand years of slumber, the Dragon Race —and even the entire Samael Continent— has undergone considerable changes."

The old ancestor was somewhat moved.

How did my once mighty Dragon Race become like this?

It's true that the younger generation surpasses the older generation, but as the younger generation pushes things forward, they eventually start to decline.

"Your awakening is to prevent the final 'ultimate fear,' although I don't know what that is, and you're unwilling to explain it to me in detail, but I want to remind you, before the 'ultimate fear' descends—"

Noa spoke calmly and confidently, just like her Mom.

"More trouble is yet to come on this continent."

The Young Dragon Department of the Saint Hiss Academy also offers history courses, although they are taught in a very basic way. In her spare time, Noa would read some extracurricular books that interested her to supplement the knowledge she didn't fully understand in class.

Firstly, Xiao Juan Wang himself is quite studious;

Secondly, I can learn more things that aren't in textbooks, so I can tell Xiaoguang about them when I get home.

That way, that Little Pink Hair won't keep causing trouble with things like having a second personality.

Let's get back to the main topic.

The ancestor didn't seem particularly surprised after hearing Noa's reminder.

"The crisis of this generation should be resolved by your generation. My this King goal is ultimate fear."

The old man's idea was good, much like that of Grandmother Veronica; they both wanted the next generation of young people to lead a new world.

However, although her idea was good, her way of speaking seemed somewhat... unapproachable.

Noa was too young to understand the first meaning, but not the second.

"You were able to quell the internal strife of the Dragon Race back then, so why are you only focused on that ultimate fear now? Those shadows lurking throughout the continent can even affect the Dragon Race."

Noa didn't mean to stand on moral high ground and criticize the ancestor. She just didn't understand why the Primal Dragon King, who was revered as Dragon race hero, had become somewhat paranoid after awakening from a slumber of ten thousand years.

Upon hearing Noa's question, the old ancestor suddenly appeared slightly displeased.

However, she didn't get angry with Noa, nor did she give Noa a direct answer. Instead, she looked away from the dragon's gaze and stared at the calm water.

"I'll tell you when you grow up."

Don't treat me like a child.

"Hmph, but you're still a child."

"Noah!—"

Thump thump thump—

The knocking on the door pulled Noa back to reality from her conscious state.

She slowly opened her eyes, but the old woman's words, "But you are just a child," still buzzed in her ears like flies.

Noa sat up in bed, feeling a little agitated, and then took a few deep breaths to calm herself down.

Forget it, I'm not going to bother with an ancient dragon. I'm a good young dragon of the new era!

After calming down, Noa leaped off the bed and went barefoot to open the bedroom door.

As soon as the door opened, a splash of pink caught Noa's eye.

Xiao Guang leaned closer, his big eyes very close to Noa's nose, and heard her say mysteriously,

"Big sister, you were just... talking to that ghost, weren't you?"

"... What ghost? I don't understand."

Hikaru (leaning closer again): "Really? But I clearly heard you say something about... a child or something..."

Noa leaned back slightly. "I was... talking in my sleep."

Xiao Guang (leaning closer x3): "Big sister, you can—"

Noa raised her little hand and smeared it on her little sister's face, then gently pushed her out of the bedroom.

"You were about to kiss me, Hikaru. I was really just talking in my sleep."

The Little Pink Hair shook her head. "Alright, alright. But tell that ghost to watch out, I, Aurorla, will find it one day!"

"..."

Noa had a feeling that this summer vacation would be anything but peaceful.

Well, I'll go with my little sister.

"So, is there something you need, Hikaru?"

"Daddy Mom are back! Second Sister has already gone over there, let's go too."

"Okay, let's go."

The two sisters went to the restaurant, where a sumptuous dinner had already been prepared.

Two days later, my Mom Daddy came home.

Good evening, Noa, Xiaoguang.

"Good evening, Dad Mom ~" the Little Pink Hair girl greeted as she climbed into the high chair next to Leon.

Good evening, Dad and Mom.

Noa greeted them calmly and took her seat. "How's the border patrol going?"

Every time they went to the mountain cave to exchange intelligence with their master, Leon and Losweiser would use the excuse of 'border patrol'.

However, they had a vague feeling that this reason might not be very useful to Noa.

Because the eldest daughter always believed they were using border patrol as an excuse to secretly go on dates...

Well, as long as Noa doesn't notice anything amiss.

Moreover, if they are truly mistaken for "loving parents who frequently sneak out on dates," then that would be a perfectly acceptable misunderstanding.

"It went very smoothly," Leon replied.

"Uh-huh."

Noa agreed and immediately picked up her knife and fork to prepare for the meal.

But as perceptive as she was, she noticed that the atmosphere at the dinner table tonight was... a little off.

Mu En and Xiao Guang were positioned closer to Dad Mom than usual.

Dinner also included many of Mu En's favorite foods, but they weren't very healthy and were foods that her parents usually strictly controlled. Now, however, they were all served up at once.

Then look at Leon and Losweiser.

Although they were all busy serving food to their two younger sisters and showing concern for their well-being and studies, Noa always felt that... it seemed like they had something to say.

Noa's little brain worked quickly, and she said, "Dad, I've hit a roadblock with the Lightning Wolf Breaking Army you taught me last time. Could you give me some more guidance tomorrow?"

"Ah... no rush, Noa. Lightning Wolf Breaking Army is a high-difficulty spell, it's normal to encounter a bottleneck."
