Chapter 46 Elena's Punch Card

(Elena: Master Delin, and Masters Thorin and Philin, are they really gone?)

Although Delin's information had revealed the truth, Elena still couldn't believe it, clinging to the hope that it was all a lie.

The demise of those who had followed her was already a minor blow to her and the kingdom.

But compared to the two masters, this is nothing at all.

The master is the pillar of the kingdom.

The death of the master signifies the collapse of a pillar of the kingdom, which destabilizes the kingdom and leads to its decline.

A weakened kingdom, if it's lucky, it's not too bad.

But if they are unlucky, they may be invaded by enemy countries, leading to the destruction of their country and the extinction of their race.

(Delin: Thorin was killed by the dragon right before my eyes. As for Philin, although I didn't witness his death, he hasn't recovered yet, and considering the dragon chased after him first, I can guess that he was murdered.)

Delin was grief-stricken, but hatred had contorted his face, making him look like a demon.

Elena's eyes lit up.

(Elena: Master Delin, Master Philin may not be dead, he just can't contact us.)

These self-deceptive words also caught Delin's eye, making his heart race and giving him a dreamlike impulse.

In a little while.

(Delin: That's right, it's very likely that Second Brother didn't die; he just couldn't respond to us.)

(Delin: Once I've fully recovered, I'll go find him, and I'll definitely bring him back to the kingdom.)

Delin spoke continuously.

(Delin: Your Highness, you will now take the young dragon back to the country to carry out the follow-up plans. I will stay here and keep a close eye on the evil dragon, looking for her weakness, to deliver a fatal blow and avenge my elder brother.)

Elena disagreed.

(Elena: Master, please come back with me. It's too dangerous here.)

Delin, however, remained resolute: (You don't need to try to persuade me anymore.)

Seeing this, Elena felt helpless. But Delin was so resolute, there was nothing she could do. After all, she was just a princess, while the Grandmaster was high above her; she had no right to control him.

"Never mind, I'll let Dad talk to him later," Elena thought.

(Elena: Master, please take care and don't take any unnecessary risks.)

(Delin: Yes, I will. I will live on in place of my elder brother and protect the kingdom well.)

...

With that, Elena ended her communication with Delin.

She then took out a brand new "Book of Communication" to look at.

Five days ago.

(King: Child, are you alright? Why didn't you respond to Master Delin?)

Four days ago.

(King Father: Master Delin said you're dead, but I don't believe it. You are my pride, the kingdom's most talented extraordinary being. You will surely become a master, or even a legend.)

(King Daddy: Reply to me quickly, or Daddy will get angry.)

Three days ago.

(King: Child, are you really dead? How could you die?)

...

Elena's eyes were filled with tears; she could feel her father's pain.

(Elena: Dad, I'm alright. I just fainted and couldn't reply. Also, I caught two baby dragons. Our plan was a success.)

The king was unable to reply immediately.

Elena was somewhat disappointed. However, she figured she could wait; the king was probably busy.

That is indeed the case.

Being a king requires managing a vast country, which demands a great deal of effort.

While Elena was chatting, the baby dragon sisters devoured all the food they had.

Her once-shrunken belly was now bulging out.

They lay down on the ground, basking in the sun, completely satisfied.

Only then did Elena realize that she hadn't eaten yet. She quickly took out some cooked food and began to eat it in small bites.

"The location of that dragon has moved drastically; it's clearly no longer on Emerald Lake Island."

"It seems that the elven tribe escaped safely earlier."

"And the dragon also left."

Elena kept thinking: "Before leaving the Sandy Mountains, I have to deal with this wretched dragon."

Now that she has the baby dragon sisters, she doesn't care about Loya anymore.

Loya's skill in inscription and magic runes is impressive, but there are many other talented people in the kingdom.

Among them are enchanters who can inscribe basic, beginner, and even intermediate and advanced runes and spell patterns.

In conclusion, Loya is not the kind of person who is indispensable.

At this time, the death of the master in her country and the persecution by Sophia also made her very unhappy.

Loya, the dragon who had insulted her, became her punching bag.

"I wonder if the elven tribe is with him or not. If they are, then I can take those elves under my wing."

Elena thought of something else.

Ten minutes passed without me even realizing it.

Elena had also eaten and drunk her fill.

Coincidentally, the Book of Communications was flashing with a gray magical light at that moment.

Someone has sent a letter.

(King: Oh my goodness, my dearest daughter, I knew you were alright. The plan succeeded? That's wonderful! I knew you could do it, you wouldn't fail.)

(Elena: Dad, I'm sorry for making you worry.)

(King Dad: Hahaha, it's alright, it's alright.)

Beyond the Sendi Mountains, in the magnificent royal palace and gardens of the capital city of the Kingdom of Philar.

The current King Philaral VII is holding the Book of Correspondence with a look of excitement on his face.

Philar VII appeared to be a robust and imposing figure, exuding the aura of a powerful ruler, with an even more terrifying master-level extraordinary pressure that was faintly visible.

Clearly, this king was no mediocre man.

Actually, this is quite normal.

In this world where extraordinary individuals roam freely, it's not impossible for an ordinary person to become king, but the difficulty is immense. They might even become a puppet, or be easily assassinated.

Therefore, most leaders of major powers are outstanding experts.

However, upon closer inspection, one can see that this powerful king has red and swollen eyes.

Clearly, he had cried earlier.

"Elena is not dead, and we have captured the baby dragon, so the next part of the plan can proceed smoothly."

King Philar VII took a deep breath. "Although the price we pay is very high, it is all worth it. As long as the next plan succeeds, my kingdom will surely give birth to a legend, or even an epic-level superhuman, thus transforming the insignificant Philar Kingdom into a powerful empire that dominates the continent."

Ambitions were erupting. The air around Philadelphus VII was affected by the king's emotions, becoming erratic and creating a strange scene resembling a distortion of space.

(King: Child, where are you? I'll send someone to fetch you right away.)

(Elena: It's on the edge of the Sandy Mountains, about a thousand miles from Rogin Town. My situation here is a bit complicated, so let's agree to meet in Rogin Town.)

Rogin Town is a forbidden area on the edge of the Sandy Mountains, where fighting is prohibited. It's home to all sorts of intelligent beings: magical beasts, orcs, pure-blooded humans, goblins… you name it.

Legend has it that the ruler of Luojin Town is a mysterious and extraordinary being, comparable to a legend.

Therefore, everyone in Luojin Town must abide by the rules. Those weak superhumans who disbelieve in evil and break the rules will inevitably meet a violent end.

As for powerful superhumans, they dare not act recklessly.

Therefore, a mysterious and extraordinary individual, comparable to a legend, deserves our respect.

Upon seeing this, Philaral VII couldn't help but frown, feeling that Elena's plan was not conservative enough.

(King: You should stay where you are and hide properly, then let my men go find you.)

(Elena: Dad, there are risks involved in waiting. I think it's better to move around a bit. Don't worry, as long as I'm careful and cautious, we'll be absolutely safe if nothing unexpected happens.)

That's true. The Sandy Mountains are teeming with monsters, and there is indeed no absolutely safe place.

King Philalal VII hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

(King: Okay, that's settled then.)

...

After the agreement was reached, Elena accepted the Book of Communication.

She pulled out her dazzling magic wand and said to the young dragon sisters, "Alright, let's not waste any more time. We need to get going."

Finland was annoyed: "No, I'm still so tired. I don't want to travel. Just let me rest a bit more."

If it were Ophie who said that, Elena might consider it, but if it were Finland, then absolutely not.

Elena glanced at Orpheus and saw that the little one had already gotten up. Clearly, unlike her sister Finn, she obeyed Elena's commands.

Elena was extremely satisfied, feeling that this was truly a fine dragon. She couldn't wait to return home, study the book of dragon taming, and become a great dragon knight.

However, reality is cruel. Her impulsive idea was destined to fail.

Because she can't teleport.

Yes, teleportation crystals are precious consumables that can be used only once.

A princess like her shouldn't be treated like a small steamed bun, to be eaten whenever she wants.

Moreover, even if she did possess the teleportation crystal, it wouldn't be possible for her to return to her home country directly.

Because the distance is too far. The teleportation distance of the teleportation crystal is also limited.

Without thinking twice, Elena raised her magic wand and began casting a spell.

Magic: Local Invisibility

A white magical light appeared, shining on the bodies of the baby dragon sisters.

Soon, a strange thing happened: the baby dragon sisters lost their wings. This turned them into large green lizards.

"How ugly! This is a disgrace to a true dragon! Human, what have you done to me? Change back to your original form!" Finland shouted loudly.

Elena's face turned cold: "Be a good girl and listen to me, or I'll gag you so you won't be able to eat, and even breathing will be ten times more difficult."

Finland quickly covered her mouth, trying to calm herself down. Her eyes were filled with unease and panic. She thought Elena was incredibly cruel. To threaten her with such a vicious method.

Magic [Skin Color Change], Elena used magic again.

This time, the green of the baby dragon sisters turned into a mixture of blackish-gray, dark red, and purplish-blue.

The complex colors look ugly at first glance.

Finland pouted; she really wanted to curse. As a proud dragon, she couldn't stand this kind of humiliation.

However, the dragon, being under the eaves, had no choice but to bow its head.

However, although she showed no outward reaction, she was inwardly cursing him to the point of madness.

Even Orpheus, a dragon skilled at patience, couldn't help but tremble; she felt deeply uncomfortable. But since Finland had backed down, she was even less likely to disagree.
