I Have Seven Dragon Souls In a cultivation world

The old man recording Princess Levina's tab was calm on the surface but deep down in his heart he wanted to cry.

He had spent countless years cultivating and struggling but in  the end he could still come nowhere near to this level of treatment.

If he had known life was so easy back then why would he work hard and cultivate he would have just tried hard to seduce a rich and beautiful lady!

The old man could only sigh at the fact that he recognised the truth  of the world too late.

But as he was about to give up hope his shoulder suddenly perked up.

It might not be too late at the end of the day. Although he was old he still had a young disciple around Dante's age and his looks and talent weren't bad either.

In that moment the old man silently swore to find his disciple a rich partner no matter what so he could put his feet up and enjoy his old age.

The old man's poor disciple would never know what terrible fate would await him after the old man's small interaction  and it was all because of Dante.

As for the main culprit, he was completely oblivious to it and along with princess Levina entered through the titanic gates of the royal treasury.

As soon as Dante entered into the treasury he nearly lost all composure.

His heartbeat sped up and his face flushed with eyes turning into those of euphoric and crazed beast.

To an outsider it was as if Dante had just seen the most beautiful woman in the world before him.

For the first time in a long while, Dante's draconic greed reared its ugly head.

Levina on the side who was watching all this was left in utter disbelief. 

She had previously tried hard in seducing Dante and had  barely even been able to get a reaction out of him but just standing in front of a pile of treasure caused him to stare forward like a boy in heat! 

For a second Levina couldn't help but feel a little self conscious, a sad thought passed by her mind.

'Am I really that unappealing?'

The truth is that Princess Levina had been done wrong. She was still a natural beauty that could steal the hearts of most men.

It's just unfortunate for her that her chosen target and opponent was Dante and Dante was not just 'most men'

His draconic nature allowed him to see the true reality of the world.

For Dragons women are temporary, only treasures can last forever!

This was the hard fact that most young male dragons believed, in fact it was ingrained in their very genes.

Any young male dragon that was blinded by heat and allowed for another female dragon to nest in his lair. 

By the time they woke up the next morning, they would wake up to a lair that was completely stripped of treasures and, for dragons, how could lust ever compare to treasure?

Woman are simply a temporary thing, only treasures last forever. 

at least that's what dragon's believed in. 

As Dante walked in, he could see countless treasures and minerals lying around. Precious ingots and gemstones were sprawled everywhere in sight. 

Dante even saw pots and patches of precious herbs going stable inside this place . 

But even with all these countless treasures, the thing that satisfied Dante's draconic senses the most was the gold. 

It was practically endless. 

For as far as the naked eye could see, Dante saw the glistening vibrant colour of gold with piles of coins and bars of gold everywhere. For a second it was as of all of his dragon souls had directly entered heaven. 

But Date soon realised he could just stay like this forever. So after taking some time to snap back into reality and suppress his greed, he soon came back to his senses. 

Under the guidance of Princess Levina, Dat began to walk deeper and deeper into the Royal Treasury. 

As they walked, the surrounding about them began to slowly and gradually change. The seemingly endless piles of gold bars and coins started to fade away. Even the precious weapons and gemstones started to decrease in frequency until only one or two treasures could be seen within the space of several meters. 

But the value of treasures didn't decrease, on the contrary the value of the treasures present exploded exponential. 

The treasures were kept in much better conditions, with all of them being placed on pedestals with glowing runes around them. 

Dante and Princess Levina walked in for a little longer until they came across something that caught Dante's interest. 

In front of him on two pedestals were two shiny pieces of black ore with black smoke flowing of them but the strangest thing to Dante was that these two seemingly lifeless pieces of or seemed to pules from time to time, almost like a beating heart. 

As Dante moved closer to this strange object, he could see the smoke radiated from it actually seemed to shift into strange screaming faces that seemed to be crying out in immeasurable pain. 

Seeing this sight and feeling the strange feeling this ore radiated, Dante couldn't help but frown. 

"What is this?" asked Dante with furrowed brows 

"It's an object called curse steel." said Princess Levina walking over to Dante's side. 

"It was an object acquired by the one of ancestors of the Vaenam kingdom. DuringDuring a time of the Kingdom's infancy, the law and control of the royal family was much weaker than it was now and there were cases of countless sects and cults popping up from time to time. During this time there was a powerful demonic cult that spread throughout the kingdom that even threatened to overturn the rule of the Vaenam royal family." 

This cult had conducted a massive sacrifice o a scale never seen before to create a powerful artefact that could defeat the royal family for good."
