Dear Broom Knight

#305 - Lowry's one painting a day

Bolanos couldn't quite understand this bizarre existence.

After all, gods, though they might be shameless and ruthless, were basically on the same side as the world.

The creatures born in response to the times on the earth were not necessarily so; they would inevitably choose themselves between the world and their own interests.

After all, life was so short, who cared about the world after death?

Bolanos still didn't understand why the World Will had made such a choice, but he suddenly understood why the White Dragon King would rather endure so many inconveniences to take root in this world.

A world that gave opportunities to humans, and even some magical creatures, would also open a window for outsiders like dragons.

Of course, this window would be very difficult to open, but once opened, they would no longer be blocked out.

Dragons did occupy countless worlds.

But they were always outsiders.

Those worlds would tolerate their existence because of their power, but they would never open the lines of law to them.

Worlds like Toril wouldn't either.

When the dragons were clearly winning in the war against the giants, that old guy who introduced the dragons to Toril, hoping they would balance the power of the giants, immediately brought in the elves.

It was true that the native species of Toril under the rule of the dragons didn't have a good life, but… if AO hadn't actively invited them, with Iou's personality, how could he have sent Bahamut and Tiamat into Toril?

Although the old guy was selfish and unethical, he cared about his own sons and daughters.

Don't think the white dragons have a hard time; at least they are of the Five-Colored Dragon lineage, Tiamat's children… they might have a miserable life, but they would never be extinct.

Small races like their magic crystal dragons didn't have that kind of confidence.

Not to mention their magic crystal dragons, even if the crystal dragon branch was cut off, the Nine-Faced Dragon God wouldn't care.

After all, as long as he wanted to, he could create them again at any time.

On the other hand, the Five-Colored Dragons, because they were related to Tiamat's power and life, Iou would never allow any of them to be completely extinct.

This was the fragility and sorrow originating from the depths of Bolanos' bloodline, which could not be eliminated even if their individual strength was stronger than any of the Five-Colored Dragons.

Otherwise, why would the magic crystal dragons secretly have children with white dragons?

The shame of the Five-Colored Dragons was only for the Five-Colored Dragons.

Dragons were indeed the most powerful creatures in the material world, but what acknowledged them was the Astral Plane, the starry sky controlled by the Nine-Faced Dragon God Iou, not a certain world.

On the contrary, most worlds were full of rejection and defense against dragons because of Iou's overly greedy nature.

A world like this, where you were given a chance as long as you were truly willing to integrate into the laws of the world, was too rare to see.

Of course, the White Dragon was lucky to have actually waited for such a rare opportunity.

Therefore, even though the White Dragon King was miserably tricked for various reasons, he endured it all.

As long as the White Dragon King continued to act in accordance with the requirements of the law in the identity of the Dragon God before the world returned to normal, then their branch of white dragons would truly take root in this world.

Dragons, even good dragons, were basically synonymous with bad luck.

Even those who could add luck to themselves were the same.

To put it bluntly, the reason why they could do things that added luck was because they had something to ask for.

Who would be idle enough to shout about adding luck to themselves if they were truly lucky?

This was because no world recognized them as their own, so when the luck flowed, it bypassed the dragons.

Now their branch of white dragons had the status and sense of existence that dragons had in Toril… The dragons of Toril were able to achieve this by relying on dying and coming back to life, and shamelessly fighting for it.

Then, at the moment when the world healed and reopened the door to the Astral Plane, their branch of white dragons would also be able to feel what it meant to be favored by the world.

The more powerful white dragons actually understood this.

Otherwise, Ruth Karnia wouldn't be in such a hurry to have children at such a crucial time.

According to predictions, their children would be promoted to young dragons just in time for the world's advancement… Then, the world's luck would directly shower down like golden rain.

As long as Bobo and the others were willing, they could even become Dragon Gods directly when they came of age.

Their children would henceforth have unlimited possibilities.

Even if Bobo and the three of them had any accidents when wandering in other worlds, their souls could return to this world and be reborn in their own nest, which had been transformed into a kingdom of God… Although they would lose their bodies, at least their souls were still there, and they were still living beings.

Compared to those unlucky ones who could only be transformed into undead and never return to their former homes, they were much happier.

She couldn't possibly not know that it was inevitable that the White Dragon King would be entangled in those inexplicable things.

Even the Night Goddess, who was secretly manipulating all of this, probably wasn't trying to help her stupid friend, but hoping to stir up trouble within the White Dragon clan.

After all, this world was quite harsh on the gods… But it couldn't be said to be cruel either; as long as the gods didn't trick people, harm people, or try to bully others, and stayed well on their lines of law, diligently serving, then there would be no problem.

It was just that many gods couldn't do this.

Even if they might be clear-headed at the beginning, as soon as they began to choose earthly agents, that was the greatest test for themselves.

But if they didn't choose, some gods would really be forgotten… Without the sense of existence of the sun and the moon, creatures like humans would treat everything unimportant as if it didn't exist.

A being like the Night Goddess couldn't possibly not understand that her so-called friend couldn't be saved at all.

However, she still chose to help that one who plotted against the White Dragon King.

Although this incident led to the danger of Ruth Karnia's mother and daughter, and the future heir planned by the White Dragon King directly disappeared… As a human ally, Ruth Karnia could have a very high status, but she would never be able to become the new queen after the White Dragon King chose to leave the continent and build his own kingdom of God.

Although Bolanos didn't know the specific reason, he was very clear that if Ruth Karnia's mother, who was likely to have been confirmed as the queen, couldn't wake up before everything started and give birth to children for the White Dragon King again, then, even if their branch of white dragons had a foundation, it wouldn't be so stable.

According to Ruth Karnia's prediction, by the time that one woke up, everything would probably have already had a result.

It would be too late for anything.

Without a secular lord, the white dragons would definitely not be as obedient as they were in the past.

As for what racial god… The Five-Colored Dragons still 'respected' Tiamat very much! Could they listen to everything she said?

Moreover, the existence of the Ice King was the greatest test for the White Dragon King.

Especially at this moment when he planned to become a god as the Lord of Ice, it was really crucial whether the White Dragon King could continue to resist the urge to help.

If he helped for the sake of his children, then, naturally, all the plans would fail.

Even if the existence of Ruth Karnia allowed their branch of white dragons to still gain the world's recognition, then, in that case, the luck they had worked so hard to win back would have to be divided equally with humans.

Ruth Karnia's human ally, Travis, would not only directly ascend to become a god, but also reach the peak by relying on the luck of both sides.

But if he endured it… The White Dragon King's pride and confidence would definitely be greatly hit, and he would henceforth have an endless enemy.

Then the White Dragon's sphere of power and living space would also be limited.

This was a conspiracy.

The white dragon knew it, and the gods knew it.

The White Dragon King's attitude towards Ruth Karnia was so good, and he respected her human allies so much, not because he loved his daughter so much.

But because he had been preparing for that possible future.

Bolanos had always had a feeling that the White Dragon King probably felt that he couldn't help it.

That was why he was so actively cooperating with Ruth Karnia's idea of raising children early.

Now, Ruth Karnia and his children would have some that resembled him, and even some like Bobo, whose bloodline was more inclined towards the magic crystal dragons.

But if Ruth Karnia really became the White Dragon Queen and wore that crown, then the children after that could only be white dragons.

Bolanos was actually very melancholy when he understood all of this.

But at that time, he had already gone too far on the road to pursuing Ruth Karnia.

There was no turning back.

Besides, he didn't want any female dragons other than Ruth Karnia to give birth to cubs for him.

Fortunately, he finally had a cub and a safe home that belonged to him.

Bolanos felt that the reason why he had such a deep affection for Laurie was because, although they were both descendants of dragons, they could only grope their way through life on their own.

Although they were strong enough to crush the pits they accidentally stepped in, the feeling of the water in the pits splashing on their bodies was not good!

Bolanos would occasionally see Laurie sitting in the study, silently painting on the drawing board all day long, while circling in the air.

He knew what the child was doing it for.

Wanting to sleep but not being able to sleep was the most difficult pain for every dragon.

However, Bobo and the others would hardly encounter such a dilemma.

After all, he and Ruth Karnia had taught their children from the beginning how to balance these feelings.

Laying a sufficient foundation during the wyrmling stage would prevent them from suffering this crime in the future.

But for a dragon like Laurie, who was caught between adolescence and youth, it was too difficult to re-establish this balance.

Bolanos really understood the child's pain very well.
