Dear Broom Knight
#266 - Ruth Kania's Disquiet
However, for the white dragon, instead of directly hiding her dragon eggs under a pile of ice, she used ice-type gemstones as a hatching medium and even provided such a huge and valuable crystal plate, which indeed proves how deep Ruthkania's maternal love is.
You know, she will stay for at most another month, and after confirming that there is no problem with the activity and energy of the dragon eggs, she will return to the royal capital to accompany the white dragon king who has been waiting for her for a long time.
When she went back to White Dragon Valley to visit relatives and fight for benefits from her own father, she had never been away from Travis for so long.
So, this crystal plate is equivalent to being given to her cubs... Lowry observed carefully, it was a nesting plate.
It can be directly split into three triangular semi-circular plates.
So, although the three dragon eggs are close together, they are indeed placed separately on different plates.
For dragons, they don't value other dragon cubs born from the same mother, only those from the same nest are brothers and sisters.
Only by supporting each other through the weakest, most helpless, and most dependent time of drilling out of the eggshell can they feel what blood kinship is.
Even if they part ways after growing up, they will still leave each other some face... even if their brothers and sisters are so weak that they look down on them.
This is already the most affectionate manifestation in the dragon world where strength is respected.
It's almost the same as their love for their parents and children... Of course, this refers to the kind of parents who carefully raise their children, not the kind who bury dragon eggs anywhere, and whether they live or not depends entirely on whether the cubs are tough enough.
Lowry looked at the crystal plate again and quickly understood Ruthkania's little trick: although she estimated that she could only come back when the dragon cubs hatched, the crystal plate, which condensed her painstaking efforts, could allow these dragon cubs to feel the love from their mother even in the eggshell.
That should be a special wonder that Ruthkania refined little by little with her own dragon fire, which can gather the surrounding ice power at a specific point... The dragon eggs were placed there, and it can also ensure that these dragon eggs cannot be moved at will.
After the dragonets become conscious in the egg, they will start to sway unconsciously.
If the dragon mothers are not prepared properly, they will have to go out hunting once and then look for eggs everywhere in their nest when they come back.
Ruthkania values her children more than Lowry thought, and is even willing to think carefully for them.
Lowry couldn't help but sigh softly.
"Are you sad for my choice? My friend." The novice mother, who was looking at the crystal plate with the gentlest eyes, sensitively noticed, "You are still so gentle and kind, and always consider the difficulties of others.
I like your concern for me, but, Lowry, this is the path I chose myself, even if it is full of thorns, I will fly over it!
Don't be sad for me, I am actually really happy.
Lowry, look... Who can be like me, who can both pursue my dreams and my path, and have children in peace?
If it weren't for you, how could I... Lowry, it was you who gave them the opportunity to be born.
If it weren't for you, I would have chosen to give up being a mother.
Bolanios is indeed very good, but he is still a male dragon."
Ruthkania suddenly sneered: "The White Dragon King is still a rare good dragon king in the white dragon group!
Responsible for the group, and has not given up on any child... He has given everything that should be given.
But look at me, look at the Ice King next to me!
Good, is just compared.
Lowry, I used to believe some of the unavoidable things they said.
After all, my mother fell asleep too early.
But I am a mother myself now~
Some lies will be self-defeating.
I understand too well how much my mother paid to give birth to me!
Bolanios is just a relatively powerful dragon, not a dragon king!
It's so hard to have children for a male dragon who is stronger than yourself~"
She leaned her head slightly towards her crystal plate, her eyes half-open and half-closed: "Here with you, I can rest assured without having to consider the safety of the nest, and I don't need to hunt to fill my stomach.
Bolanios will also bear most of the nutrition for the children.
But in the initial period when the dragon eggs were forming in my belly, I still felt the horror of a large amount of energy being drawn from my body.
If I only relied on myself, even if I still had the strength after the first dragon egg appeared, I wouldn't...
But, Lowry, I am a mother!
How desperate it would be to see children who could obviously be born but... be powerless.
I, mother... mother...
Lowry, I miss her, I really miss her.
Most importantly, the ones who pay the price are the female dragons.
In Toriel, which still follows the traditional five-color dragon style, even though it has lost its ruling power, it basically relies on the mother dragon to raise the children alone. It is estimated that most mother dragons, even if they cannot resist their maternal instinct, will only leave one dragon egg for their own safety.
And as the smallest of the five-color dragons, the white dragon, in this case, definitely doesn't want to give birth to any.
No matter how strong the maternal instinct is, in the face of their own lives, no white dragon will make trouble for themselves.
Then, the white dragons, who don't want to become extinct and completely cut off their inheritance, can only choose to reproduce offspring with the least amount of energy consumption as possible.
However, the white dragons, who are already relatively small, will inevitably be in a weaker position because of this, and they can naturally only choose to continue to weaken their offspring.
Degenerating like this generation after generation, over time, will naturally form the current state... They no longer need to worry about whether their dragon eggs have enough energy to form, raising an ostrich is more difficult than a white dragon.
Some female white dragons with particularly low intelligence will even lay eggs randomly.
As for the final result of these dragon eggs, they don't care at all, anyway, they have given birth.
Everything depends on whether those little dragons have that fate.
It's just that no matter how much the dragon eggs degenerate, they are definitely still top magical creatures, so they can still maintain their overall number.
Although it sounds cruel... If Ruthkania knew the situation on Toriel's side, she would probably go crazy and would definitely not admit that those white dragons were the same race as them... But at least in Toriel, where the environment is so harsh, the white dragons, known as the shame of the five-color dragons, still have the largest number of survivors.
Even during the dragon frenzy, the impact on them is not too great.
After all, dragons with brains go crazy and target enemies they couldn't beat before and treasures they can't get, so they suffer heavy casualties.
But white dragons... Attacking the lair of wolves or the home of orcs?
Although they were chased and bitten by wolves in a shameful manner and almost caught by orcs to be stewed, most of them saved their lives.
Lowry looked at his friend, whose big eyes were faintly glistening with tears, and silently took two steps back.
To be honest, he would rather Ruthkania still have that look of owing her to everyone in the world than see her sudden sadness.
This gave him a kind of inexplicable... unease.
"Don't worry about me, Lowry." Today's Ruthkania is sensitive like she never was, "Only today.
The first time a dragon becomes a mother, she will receive a lot of memory shocks from her bloodline.
Moreover, this is also the most maternal day for dragons.
Even if I reproduce offspring again in the future, I won't be as impulsive and emotional as this time.
Heh~ Dragon~
Do you think, is it right or wrong for dragons to retain their bestial side?"
Lowry looked at her in confusion: "What does this have to do with bestiality?
The day my mother gave birth to me, she was also crying and laughing, and she and Pat, and her personal maid, sighed for a long time, and said that because of me, everything was worth it... This is motherhood~
Maternal love that will be praised by any race.
You can say that this is biological nature, but... using bestiality to describe it is a bit too much, too extreme."
Ruthkania suddenly laughed: "You still know how to comfort me.
That's right, the human mothers I saw before were all the terrifying women of Travis, who couldn't be considered normal at all. They were so calm when they saw their children because they were full of calculations and precautions when they were pregnant with them and no longer had the energy to love their children.
Your mother is what a normal woman would show, I really thought too much.
Then I can rest assured that the confusion caused by love for children is not a mistake... That's good."
The faint anxiety and unease in the dragon's nest gradually disappeared.
Only then did Lowry ask the most crucial question: "What about Bolanios?"
"He went to the ice field to catch fish for me." Ruthkania sneered, "What's the use of keeping him?
The Ps that Travis releases are almost the same!
No, he's not even as good as Travis!
At least that guy Travis can say something to reassure those women, but Bolanios can't even release a P that can be listened to!
Do I want his insincere comfort?
What's the use of a male dragon who can't even see what I'm worried about and can't even make a living?
Or..."
Lowry quickly interrupted her: "My friend, I definitely don't want to be a friend of women, and I don't want to be called a good person by women for the rest of my life.
Also, for the sake of helping you solve the confusion in your heart, don't praise me for caring about you more in front of your partner, okay?
You're going to send me to the lava lake!"
"Ugh... Why do humans always have so many broken rules?" Ruthkania finally put down her hidden worries and began to put on her proud dragon appearance again.
Lowry narrowed his eyes and smiled at the relaxed white dragon lady: "These are not just human rules, Ruthkania."
