Evil Dragon: The young dragon I picked up keeps planning on becoming an empress

Chapter 36 The Over 350-Year-Old Young Dragon Loves Eating Field Mice



Even the deities... completely shattered?

Are there really such madly powerful superhumans in the Human World?

Are they not afraid that the deities will hear them, and then... suffer divine punishment?

The saying 'powerful superhumans fear nothing' turns out to be true...

Anyway, she, a princess of the empire, wouldn't dare say such a thing...

She couldn't even shatter a Giant Dragon... let alone a deity...

"Do the... human superhumans who say such things... not fear divine punishment?"

"The deities don't take their words seriously, saying they'll shatter deities... it's just an exaggerated rhetorical device, not that they really have the power to shatter deities.

What they want to express is an attitude, a confidence that with enough money, no matter how powerful the adversary or how difficult the task, they believe they can complete it.

Don't imagine the deities to be too petty; look at the War God, who was exploited by that shameless human, Brude Donahue, and still had to hold his nose and accept it.

If the War God was really petty, Brude Donahue would probably have died the moment he invoked the War God's creed. Besides, deities don't have time to watch over the mortal realm all day, so sometimes, don't picture them as too petty."

Lucia nodded, feeling that what Evil Dragon said made sense.

"Would you dare say you could shatter a deity?"

"I wouldn't dare... I'm afraid the deity would shatter me..."

"......"

Maybe it's better to take Evil Dragon's words with a grain of salt. If you take some of his words too seriously, you might not even know how you died.

The task from Hell's Bounty was to kill the Undead Lich. Could there really be superhumans bold enough to take on a bounty task graded as "Death" level by Hell itself?

"Lance, the Lich's strength has been acknowledged by Hell. Can the superhumans of the Human World... really kill the Lich in the bounty task?"

"The Lich is somewhat strong, but its power hasn't gained Hell's recognition." Lance put away the Grim Reaper's Scythe, then continued, "Hell marked this task as 'Death' level, and this 'Death' level is aiming at 'Apprentice Grim Reapers'.

Don't underestimate the depth of Hell; a mere Lich is nothing in front of Hell. If Hell really got serious, the Lich in the bounty... would disappear from the Human World in a matter of seconds."

A mere Lich is not noteworthy in the eyes of Hell; such a level of disruptive element can be dealt with by a first-level Reaper.

Difficulty, death, the levels of Hell's bounty tasks are targeting 'Apprentice Grim Reapers'.

Apprentice Reapers are powerful necromancers, essentially still human, and facing something like the faux-immortal Lich, they indeed face the risk of death.

Hell is strong, its depth immeasurable, and what really gets Hell's attention, making them take notice, are those evil spirits that have escaped from Hell.

The Young Dragon doesn't understand how truly powerful Hell is.

If Hell were so weak it couldn't even handle a minor Lich, he wouldn't have chosen to become an 'Apprentice Grim Reaper,' to collaborate with Hell, to become an official Black Dragon with half a background in Hell.

Lucia's clear yet somewhat naive amethyst vertical pupils revealed an look of sudden realization.

So, this task level was targeting 'Apprentice Grim Reapers.'

She had thought that the Lich in the bounty task was so strong that even Hell would find it a bit troublesome.

Well, that's nothing to worry about then; many superhumans in the Human World have the power to kill such a level of Lich.

If Evil Dragon hands this task out, won't he have to go to the Human World to release Hell's bounty task to the Bounty Guild?

Or to some other guild?

She still had a chance to follow Evil Dragon to the Human World, it's just unknown whether Evil Dragon would bring her along.

"So when do you plan to release the bounty task in the Human World?"

Lucia fiddled with the pen on her Dragon Claw, trying to give Evil Dragon the impression... that she was indifferent.

"To release a bounty task, I don't necessarily have to go to the Human World. I can release it from the island."

Can you publish quests even while staying on the island?

How do you publish them?

Here, besides Er Gouzi, Turtle, the Evil Dragon, and her, there's no one else.

Are you suggesting Er Gouzi should go and publish them?

"Projection communication, the Hell Grim Reaper can use it to send me bounty tasks, so naturally, I can also use it to publish bounty tasks into the Human World."

The Young Dragon indeed isn't very smart, he's seen projection communication and also witnessed bounty tasks appearing in front of him through the Grim Reaper's Scythe.

Why can't this kid think of this?

Aside from the frequent use of projection communication by the Hell Grim Reaper, it's also quite commonly used in the Human World.

Ordinary people can't afford projection communication.

But for nobles, merchants, transcendents, and some other powerful forces, using projection communication is just a matter of spending a little money.

"When you come of age and venture out, I'll go to the Human World and buy you a set of the latest projection communication Magic Artifact. Then if you miss me, you can use the projection communication Magic Artifact to chat with me.

Speaking of coming of age, I suddenly remember... I still don't know how old you are this year. Young Dragon, how old are you?"

Lance felt he had been somewhat careless, forgetting even to ask the Young Dragon's age.

"Me... how old am I?"

"Yes."

"I...I... I think I'm over 350 years old this year..."

A human girl's age of 15, converted into a Young Dragon's years... Saying over 350 years... that should be normal, right?

I mean... considering the size of a ten-plus meters Young Dragon... should be about 350 years old, right?

She had actually wanted to say 1,500 years, but she feared the Evil Dragon Lance might think she had grown up and keep her as a wife for a dozen or twenty years to bear his offspring...

It's good to be over 350 years old. To a Giant Dragon, that age is still considered a youngling among Young Dragons. If the Evil Dragon Lance really does keep her as a wife... then he would definitely have to take care of her for hundreds of years.

Hundreds of years...

Following the Evil Dragon Lance, could she possibly live for hundreds of years?

"Over 350 years old?"

"Uh... Yes... Doesn't... Doesn't it seem right?"

"Then you're severely malnourished. I remember when I was over 350 years old, my dragon body was almost... almost... I forgot how big... definitely bigger than yours...

Your dragon body... almost ten meters... just eating field mice... it really affected your growth, but to have grown to this size... it's not too bad."

The fastest growth period for a Young Dragon is from hatching to over three hundred years. After that, growth slows down significantly.

Surviving the most difficult stage right after hatching by merely eating field mice is quite impressive.

Speaking of field mice, there seemed to be some in the cornfield and vegetable patch. He saw signs of burrows when he went there this morning.

"Young Dragon, there seem to be field mice in the cornfield and vegetable patch. I saw their burrows when I was picking vegetables this morning. If you want to eat field mice, you could stake out in the cornfield and vegetable patch tonight.

If you can catch a few plump ones, I'll make them into skewers for you so you can enjoy them with a satisfying crunch."

"Ah? Are there field mice in the cornfield and vegetable patch? How come I haven't seen a single... one?"

That'll be the death of a Princess!

She has never eaten a field mouse!

Her, the Princess of the Phalan Empire, how could she possibly eat field mice!!!
