Chapter 69 Why don't you take care of me until my dying days?
Eva, I misunderstood you, it turns out your curse was a real curse, not a blessing...
Evil Dragon too was a big idiot, with a portal available and yet he chose to fly back. If he hadn't flown back that day, this phony young dragon wouldn't have been mistaken for a real one and brought to the island.
"With a portal, why did you still choose to fly back?"
"Giant Dragons are the sovereigns of the skies, to enjoy the freedom of soaring and the thrill of breaking through the air with our wings... isn't that very normal?"
Mature Giant Dragons can dominate not only the land but also the skies.
To tell the truth, the sky is actually the home field for Giant Dragons, and except for beings at the saint and deity levels, no one can defeat a mature Giant Dragon in the air.
I can't guarantee it for other Giant Dragons, but as for myself, if those at the saint and deity levels don't have a Divine Artifact in hand, there's absolutely no chance they could beat me in the sky.
"Just to add, besides us Giant Dragons, there is another creature that can dominate the skies: the Phoenix. If you encounter one of these birds, no matter if you're mature or not, don't rashly engage in conflict with them. If you do run into trouble, you can tell those birds that we should call our elders to resolve the issue."
"Oh oh oh, got it."
Young Dragons have heard of the Phoenix, powerful creatures just like Giant Dragons, and it's said that the Undying Flame a Phoenix spews can burn a Giant Dragon to death; whether it really can burn a Giant Dragon to death, she doesn't know.
But since Evil Dragon said so, it means that Phoenixes really could pose a threat to Giant Dragons.
Evil Dragon reminded her to call an elder to deal with any trouble, surely because he worried that she, as a young dragon, would be at a disadvantage.
Speaking of which... who should she call as her elder?
She only knew Evil Dragon, this one mature Black Dragon...
Hey?
Wait a minute... when Evil Dragon talked about calling an elder... he didn't mean her to call him, did he?
That despicable Evil Dragon taking advantage of her!
Forget it, she can't beat him, nor can she outlive him; if she does face real danger, she's sure to think of Evil Dragon first.
She's such a tragic princess, who used to think of the Empire's military first when in danger...
After less than a month on the island, when faced with danger, her first thought was no longer the Empire's military, but to call on Evil Dragon...
It's like having a powerful backer.
To rely on the might of the dragon.
"Let's go, a beautiful day starts with practicing Health Cultivation Skill."
"Oh."
The young dragon was full of vigor, looking forward to the day after tomorrow, being able to go to the Human World was good enough, and as for coming back to sleep at night... well, if she has to come back, so be it... she's gotten used to sleeping here for nearly half a month.
At night, without being allowed to sleep in the corner, she might even find it hard to fall asleep...
Latter, she'll tease Er Gouzi, asking if he wants to try the delicacies of the Human World, and if so... accompany her in a game of Frisbee or stick-fetching.
She throws, Er Gouzi fetches.
The noble daughters in the capital love to play these games with their pet dogs.
She's seen it, but never played it.
Er Gouzi is fierce, and if taken for a dog-walk, he might bite the young dragon in annoyance.
She needs to negotiate carefully.
After practicing Health Cultivation Skill and having breakfast, just when the young dragon was about to look for Er Gouzi to play, she was called by Evil Dragon.
She was puzzled; there were no lessons in the morning, what did Evil Dragon want with her?
Did Evil Dragon say he was going to train her in flying?
Does flying ability need training?
In the young dragon's mind surfaced the image of Evil Dragon flying.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
If she pursued the level of flight that Evil Dragon achieved, it seemed she indeed needed training.
......
"To fly well and fast, dragon wings need strength. For your dragon wings to be strong, you must train them specifically. You're in better shape than I was; when I wanted to enhance the strength of my dragon wings, I had two boulders hanging beneath them during my wing weight-training.
Once I got used to the weight of the boulders, then it was a small mountain, and when the weight of the mountain couldn't affect my flying anymore, I began flying with mountains on my back."
"You don't need to do this, I've refined two Gravity Source Patches. By setting the gravity parameters on these patches and sticking them on your dragon wings, you can go fly above the sea."
"If you can't control your wings and fall into the sea, it won't harm you. Once you've adapted to these gravity parameters, I'll gradually increase them."
His heritage memory included training methods for dragon wing flight. Though he had never seen a cheap dragon dad or dragon mom, everything that should and shouldn't be in the heritage memory was there.
The only thing missing was any information about a cheap dragon dad or dragon mom, just some fragmented and unclear images.
As for information about Dragon Island... there wasn't a single bit.
The Young Dragon stretched out her wings, turning her head to look left and right. The two Gravity Source Patches were only the size of a human palm, each adorned with two adorable and dopy little Amethyst Dragons.
The moment the Gravity Source Patches automatically adhered to her dragon wings, she instantly felt her wings become incredibly heavy.
It was like someone accustomed to regular clothes suddenly wearing armor.
Bulky and unnatural.
Flapping her wings required a great deal of effort just to stir them.
With her wings this heavy, could she really take flight?
The Young Dragon gave it a try and managed to fly, but she was skimming just above the ground. When forced to land, she used her face as a brake...
Her wings were too heavy; she couldn't fly long or freely control the direction or speed of her flight.
So annoying!
After nearly half a month of colliding with Turtle, the day after tomorrow she'd follow Evil Dragon to the Human World. She thought her life as a pretend Young Dragon was about to get sweet after all the bitterness...
But what awaited her was a new course.
As she flew, Er Gouzi, the despicable dog, lay on his stomach in front of Evil Dragon, his paws ceaselessly striking the ground, his two dog heads laughing so hard tears came out.
Turtle had a bit of a conscience, promptly closing his eyes when he saw she was about to crash to the ground.
If her landing was too ridiculous to hold back laughter, even Turtle would mock her...
Such as after she crashed, using her face, squatting, rolling, or getting a cramp in her dragon wings and falling into the sea...
You darn Er Gouzi, you're not offending a clumsy Young Dragon, but the Princess of the Phalan Empire!
In the future, while Turtle enjoys fine food and drink, all you can look forward to is gnawing on bones!
Wow.
It hurts so much, my face hurts, my mouth hurts, my butt hurts, my whole body hurts...
The sea water is so salty...
Is it still possible to cross off my first dream from my diary?
I don't want to become an excellent Evil Dragon like Evil Dragon Lance anymore...
I want to be a useless Young Dragon...

Under the supervision of Evil Dragon, Young Dragon Lucia flew and crashed, flew and crashed all morning.
Finally, perhaps driven mad by Er Gouzi, a few times she fell like a cannonball, creating a resounding boom upon impact... sending Er Gouzi flying a long distance...
And a few times, it was her head that sent Er Gouzi flying off into the distance...
Er Gouzi was so furious he ran along the beach cursing, and from time to time, he went to complain to Evil Dragon Lance, asking Evil Dragon Lance to control the Young Dragon that kept crashing into him.
Lunch was grilled meat, fish soup, and some medicinal meals.
The Young Dragon ate even more than Er Gouzi; she was famished... after a morning of bumpy flight, she was very hungry...
"Lance."
"What's up?"
"I have a dream."
"I know, I know, the dream to be an emperor."
"No... My new dream is to be a freeloading, die-happy worthless Young Dragon, so, Lance... how about... you see me through to retirement?"
"???"
