Shut up, malevolent dragon! I don’t want to have any more children with you V2C58

Chapter 58: True Couple Row

Leon squinted slightly and looked at the golden figure in the distance.

“Do you know that guy?”

Roseweisse nodded, her expression serious. “He’s the Star Dragon King, Skaar—one of the legendary figures from the last generation of dragons, even older than Constantine.”

“Didn’t expect him to come to challenge us alone,” Leon said quietly.

“That’s why there’s no need to send our people to their deaths,” Roseweisse said. “In the end, it’s always a battle between kings.”

Her tone was so heavy and oppressive that Leon glanced at her. “I’ve never seen you so nervous, Roseweisse.”

Roseweisse paused, then let out a soft laugh.

“Not nervous, more like… excited.”

“Excited?”

“As a queen who’s only reigned for fifty years, to challenge the Star Dragon King today—what an opportunity.”

“Opportunity… I can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic or think that.”

The Silver Dragons were more peaceful than most other dragons, never actively invading other tribes’ territories. But that was merely a result of their environment.

At their core, Silver Dragons were still dragons. Their innate desire for battle and violence couldn’t be concealed.

Just like Roseweisse now.

Gone was the gentle mother or the cold queen. The warring instinct in her blood had started to awaken.

Faced with an opponent as formidable as Skaar, she showed no fear at all—in fact, she even admitted to being excited.

Leon suddenly remembered the time shortly after he woke up over a year ago when Roseweisse’s revenge on him was most frequent.

Every time her torment reached its peak, her emotions would almost spiral out of control.

There were moments when Leon even thought she was so excited that she might kill him…

Perhaps that’s why her traits—gentleness, tsundere, and stubbornness—appeared so endearing to her. They were all a result of her contrasts.

This Silver Dragon Queen even had a touch of the “crazy beauty” about her.

Leon raised a hand and knocked on the helmet of his black-and-gold war chariot. The crisp metallic sound brought him back to reality, clearing away those chaotic thoughts.

He could ponder his wife’s hidden traits later. For now, he needed to deal with that golden figure ahead.

Both sides stopped almost simultaneously, about two hundred meters apart, with the boundary of Silver Dragon territory between them.

No rule stated they had to wait for the enemy to cross the line before retaliating. Dragons didn’t follow such rules.

Though there were no soldiers behind him, Leon could feel the pressure emanating from the Star Dragon King.

Roseweisse was right—this guy was indeed stronger than Constantine.

Much stronger.

“How much of your magic has recovered?” Roseweisse asked quietly, eyes fixed on the enemy ahead.

It had been almost half a year since Leon defeated Constantine, and his magic had only recovered about halfway.

“Fifty percent,” he answered honestly.

“Oh, then it seems our decision to team up was correct.”

Leon opened his mouth, tempted to say something like, “Even without you, wife, I could still wipe out the enemy” to boost morale.”

But Leon knew Roseweisse didn’t like him playing the hero alone. So, what came out instead was, “I’ve never fought in sync with a dragon before.”

“Don’t worry. We’ve always been… very in sync, Leon.”

Her words nearly made Leon choke. He coughed twice to cover his embarrassment. “We’re in the middle of a war. Be serious.”

The queen chuckled softly but said no more.

It seemed she had relaxed. Leon sighed in relief.

Several kilometers away on the command platform, Nacho watched the two sides on the verge of clashing, his mood growing tense.

“Do you think those two are working out a strategy?” Nacho asked.

“Even if they are, we can’t hear them,” Ravi said plainly.

“But what if they’ve already come up with a plan against Skaar? Shouldn’t you move closer to support him?”

Ravi ignored his suggestion and simply said, “Just wait quietly. Like you said, I’m a hidden trump card. What kind of trump card gets played before the fight even starts?”

Nacho bit his lip nervously, staring at the distant battlefield.

Meanwhile, the Silver Dragon side was also on high alert.

Though they had great faith in their queen and the prince, they still had to prepare for the worst.

After all, war wasn’t child’s play, and no one was guaranteed victory.

On the boundary line, Leon clasped his hands together and slowly drew them apart. A long sword began to form in his palms.

The entire blade was enveloped in blue lightning, crackling arcs of electricity dancing along its length.

This was Lightning Sword, a B-class lightning spell.

Leon didn’t intend to use his killing moves right away.

First, the opponent’s strength clearly exceeded Constantine’s, with an unknown upper limit. Leon was confident in his abilities, but confidence and arrogance were two different things.

Second, his magic reserves were not as full as they were against Constantine, so he needed to conserve energy for critical moments.

While he was thinking, the Star Dragon King advanced a little closer.

They were now near enough to hear each other speak.

“Leon Casmod… it was you who killed Constantine, wasn’t it?”

A voice came from beneath the golden helmet, old but authoritative.

Most beings would need immense courage just to stand before someone of Skaar’s level, let alone talk to him.

This was known as “Dragon Fear.”

But General Leon had never known the meaning of “Dragon Fear.” Every time he heard those dragon kings lowering their voices dramatically, he wanted to laugh.

He slung the lightning sword over his shoulder and said boldly, “Yes, it was me. What of it? You want revenge?”

Privately, Leon wasn’t usually this arrogant.

But after years of leading troops, he knew that in battle, one must never lose the psychological edge.

So, there was no need to answer Skaar’s question politely. A bit of swagger was fine.

Hmph… No human has ever dared speak to me like that. You’re the first.

Skaar clearly felt his authority had been challenged. “Do you think that just because you killed Constantine, you’re invincible?”

“Invincible? Hardly.”

Leon lifted the sword from his shoulder, the blue light cutting a semi-circle through the air before its tip pointed directly at Skaar. “But taking you down? That won’t be a problem.”

This time, not only Skaar but even Roseweisse, whose battle instincts had awakened, was a little shocked by her man’s audacity.

Leon could ignore the Dragon Fear, but as a fellow dragon king, Roseweisse could truly feel its pressure.

To still be able to nonchalantly taunt the enemy under such pressure—this queen had to respect him.

Skaar was growing impatient.

He didn’t want to waste any more words with this human. The imperial elders had made their instructions clear: They wanted Leon Casmod dead.

With that in mind, things became much simpler.

Skaar closed his eyes, adjusted his mindset, then slowly opened them again.

Wind and sand swirled across the battlefield as the sun was gradually obscured by a thick layer of clouds. Shadows stretched from Skaar’s direction, slowly covering the ground beneath their feet.

Leon infused more magic into the sword, causing it to surge with power. Electric arcs leaped energetically, refusing to settle.

“You’re not going to wait for the opponent to make the first move?”

Despite saying that, Roseweisse was already preparing for battle. She flipped her right hand, palm up, and immediately, a dragon flame ignited in her hand.

“I’ve always preferred to attack first.”

Leon took a crouching stance, sword at the ready. “Let’s go.”

“Alright.”

The couple became two streaks of silver, charging simultaneously toward Skaar.

In the blink of an eye, they flanked Skaar on both sides.

Leon swung his sword, while the queen unleashed her dragon flame.

The battle between kings had begun.
