Chapter 313: Dragon’s Blood Ceremony (2) Part I

“So, that’s all this is about, Texela.”

“Well, he’s not the aggressive, violent type, he’s one of those who can’t control their instinct, huh? The more I know about this man, the more I feel especially interested in him now.”

Two voices sounded like they were enjoying the conversation. One of them was a sweet but powerful voice of a woman that sounded a lot like she was in a good mood. The other was from Lex, who was sitting at his favorite, cute table with a set of tea and cake on it like before.

However, his company could not be sitting in the chair on the opposite side of the table. Maybe it was because she had an enormous body size, or it was because she was using strange magic to summon a rope out to tie some sassy man upside down from the air right now!

“Hey, if you two want to have a chitchat or whatever, can you please let me down first? My blood is all falling to my head right now.”

“And he has a big mouth as well.”

The great empress of dragon Texela complimented him with a laugh hinted in her voice.

But the compliment did not make Wisana feel glad about it at all, unlike everyone else who was laughing out of satisfaction. Especially Angie who was sitting at the tea table with Lex as well, that girl was chewing the cake with full enjoyment as she looked at him getting picked on with a happy face like he was some kind of a good interlude.

“Angie! You’re my underling. Do something!”

Wisana shouted resoundingly. But the one who was being asked for help only took a sip of her tea carelessly in response.

“Nah, I don’t think so. That’s actually what you deserve for the thing you did, isn’t it? ...Boss!?”

Angie stressed the word boss loudly, making the boss’s temple veins twitch.

“I didn’t do anything wrong. This aunty right here did, ...woah, woah, woah, woah. Woah.”

He did not finish his sentence, because Texela started swinging the rope around his ankles fast, making him barely put his words together in shouting. The swing speed was even as fast as a roller coaster. He might already be used to flying adventurously in the air, but to be hung with his head down like this kind of got him sick in his stomach, too!

“...S ...stop it, ...Aunt ...I ...I mean it, ...I ...if you don’t want me to puke on your back, ...you need to stop swinging like a Barbie doll now. ...Oop!”

He said, before putting his hands on his mouth when he felt like throwing up the milk tea out of his mouth.

“Boy, no one ever tells you to not call a person you just met for the first time Aunty, huh? Also, I’m just 2,500 years old.”

Hearing that, Wisana paused instantly.

“Huh? So, you’re not an aunty, but a great grandmother, ...ARRRRRRGH!!!”

It was not just a soft swing this time, but she swung him with force, making him spread out in a circle. The big mouth screamed out resoundingly, while the rest of them who were watching this on the ground were wheezing from laughing so hard.

It had been about 10 minutes since Lex started explaining everything to the mother of dragons Texela. After she knew that this big mouth boy was a candidate for the ceremony, she just got soft and let him free. Even though the person who behaved like this in front of her would usually get torn into pieces in the blink of an eye.

He survived that once, but he still got doomed for his own mouth again anyway. So, Wisana rudely said the forbidden word in the lady’s face, and of course, there was not any woman who liked getting called “Aunty” like this. The truth was immortal, but the one who spoke it was not. So, he should have a bit more common sense to choose his wording wisely, or the truth would definitely get him killed. (Especially when it was the truth about a 20-meter-tall dragon like this.)

Finally, he was hung down to sway left to right. And the others looked like they were having fun watching this sassy guy getting punished for having a bad mouth, so they arranged the afternoon tea party to kill time so carefreely like this.

----------------

BLAAAARGH!!

And he really did throw up. The rest were turning their faces away like they did not want to see the disgusting event occurring to the side, where some jerk ran off from other people to arch his neck as he spewed everything out. The man then swore to himself that he would never get on a roller coaster at any amusement park ever for the rest of his life!

“You got one of the best to join your class, Lexiera. There’s no need to describe his qualifications, I already admitted from his gesture that the boy’s really a light under the bushel. If he was like other players, he would have passed out a long time ago when I swung him like that.”

The white dragon turned to compliment the boy with Lex. She sat down, making the whole area vibrate slightly. However, her actions looked calm and prudent. Her massive body did not make her look clumsy at all.

“He’s not just a light under the bushel, Texela,” Lex said, then winked at her. "You might want to know about that egg he stole to deliver it to us. You’ll be surprised,”

After listening to that, the white dragon tilted her head to the side curiously.

“Whose egg did he take?” She asked.

“Why don’t you ask him to show you?”

She made a snorting sound out of her throat in response, before glancing at the cheeky one who was still aching his neck, throwing up.

“W ...WAHHH! W ...wait, I’m not finished yet!”

Without saying anything, the white dragon used the same spell on Wisana to pull him to be in front of her. But this time, the magic was pulling him up by his collar like a cat picking its baby up by its mouth.

“Aun ...I mean sister, I’m sorry. I’ll never say that word again. Please put me down, I can’t stand it anymore. If you spin me around like that again, I’d totally vomit my guts out this time. Please have mercy, sister.”

“Well, now you’ve learned from your mistake. So cute.” Texela said with a sweet smile. Those golden eyes were narrowing a little like she was fond of him. “But for now, may I see the dragon egg you’ve stolen, boy?”

“Dragon egg?” Wisana raised his eyebrows.

Seeing the white dragon nod in reply, he pressed his lips together slightly, before he opened his inventory window up. Then he grabbed the shiny black dragon egg out carefully. And after seeing that, Texela widened her eyes instantly.

“Is this for real?”

She shouted, before using her magic to make that egg float out of Wisana’s hands and stop right in front of her.

“W ...wait, hold on, Aun... Sister. Be careful. You could have dropped the egg.”

“Don’t worry, boy. Let me look at it clearly.” She snapped at him, before staring at the egg consideringly. “Firstly, answer my question. What the mad hell were you thinking to steal a Sarquros’ egg like this?”

Hearing that, Wisana paused.

“Well, Lex already told me it was acceptable, so, what’s the problem with it?” He asked.

“No, there’s no problem. I’m just wondering about how you got away from Sarquros. Moreover, you made it back with...”

“Without any scratch.” Lex completed her sentence.

“Right, without any scratch. Do you know that all these years, no one’s ever challenged my daughter and walked out of it so carefreely like you before, most of them got the worst curse that took them weeks to get dispelled but look at you.”
