The Journey of the Rainbow Dragon

Royal Capital Ovia

Inside the Royal Capital Magic Academy.

There are two big characters written on the blackboard made of dark crystal stone: Dragonborn.

A female teacher is standing on the classroom podium teaching the magic apprentices below.

"Many creatures are born with dragon blood, but you must remember that they are not real dragons."

"Common flying dragons and dinosaurs are all dragon-born. Their appearance is very similar to real dragons, but their strength is very different."

As she spoke, she projected an image of a lame kobold onto the podium, pointed at the funny lizard head and said with a smile:

"Let me tell you a secret: in fact, kobolds are also dragonborn~~"

The students in the audience suddenly opened their eyes.

A thin male student with freckles on his face quickly raised his hand and said:

"Teacher, are those kobolds too weak? Aren't creatures with the blood of dragons very powerful?"

"My aunt in the countryside said that she once drove away a kobold with a wooden stick. Does such a kobold deserve to be called a Dragonborn?"

The red-haired female teacher did not rush to respond, but asked the excited students to sit down first.

Then she looked at the other people in the class with a smile and asked:

"Do you all think so?"

Nearly two-thirds of the people nodded. It was obvious that even these mage apprentices looked down on the weak race of kobolds.

The female teacher raised her lips slightly, and then began to explain:

"Does the Dragonborn have to be strong? In fact, this is not inevitable."

"Kobolds do have thin dragon blood flowing in their bodies, but because their blood is too thin, the dragon's blood hardly brings them any strong increase in strength."

"However, we cannot judge the value and importance of a creature solely by its strength. Every creature has its unique characteristics and contributions, regardless of strength."

"Kobolds may not have the powerful strength of dragons, but they have their own wisdom and skills. They will use tools to obtain food or defense. This is the qualitative difference between those beasts and warcraft!"

"Even some kobold groups in the star realm have successfully created their own country in a certain main plane and developed a splendid kobold civilization."

After saying this, she looked at the freckled boy and spoke again:

"But although most kobolds are indeed weak, Vinsk, you can't judge a book by its appearance. Legendary heroes and gods have also appeared in the kobold clan!"

"What! Kobolds also have legends?"

"Legendary hero?"

"god?"

The students in the audience suddenly felt like a pot was exploding, and they all started discussing excitedly among themselves.

Students offered new thoughts on their original beliefs, but most speculated on a scenario in which some other race of heroes disguised themselves as kobolds.

Compared to weak kobolds, they prefer to listen to stories about the struggle between great heroes and gods.

The female teacher looked at their reactions and nodded with satisfaction, then coughed twice and continued:

"According to historical records, Karen once had a kobold named [Three Teeth]. She often cooperated with a mercury dragon partner to expel evil forces. She is a famous kobold legendary hero in the star world."

"There is also the god [Kultumak] that the kobolds believe in. He is also a kobold and has medium divine power!"

"Do you still think kobolds are weak now?"

The male student with freckles on his face nodded thoughtfully:

"I understand, teacher, we shouldn't despise kobolds because they are naturally weak. The strong will not be bound by race?"

The female teacher nodded happily:

"Very well, this is what I want you to understand. Never underestimate your enemy because of so-called common sense. Even if your enemy is a kobold, remember to use all your strength to treat it."

The female teacher on the podium who lectured in a humorous and rational manner was none other than the fire mage of the Royal Capital Academy of Magic: Leona Green.

At the same time, she is also the eldest daughter of Duke Green and the half-sister of Carol.

Today, Leona is wearing a bright red magic robe, with a thin red cord at the waist that fully reveals her hot figure.

The long, fiery red hair was smooth and shiny, and was carefully combed into a perfect ponytail by Leona. The faint golden fringe on the edge of the mage's robe reflected her elegant and calm temperament that emanated from her bones.

After explaining some basic knowledge about Dragonborn.

Leona changed the topic and whispered mysteriously to the students in the audience:

"Although dragonborn are generally weaker than true dragons, there are dragonborns who can rival or even surpass true dragons~"

As expected.

The students in the audience became enthusiastic when they heard this topic of comparison of combat power.

No matter which world you are in, discussing the strong and strength rankings is the most attractive topic.

Many people raised their hands and asked excited questions to the teacher.

"Wow, I'm more interested in this!"

"Teacher Leona, please tell us what powerful dragonborn there are."

"It's hard to imagine what those creatures comparable to dragons would look like."

"I heard that Vivian from our class summoned a dragon."

"I know this too. I heard my grandpa say it's a crystal baby dragon. It's a pity."

"Oh my God, that's not her."

Seeing that the topics they were talking about were getting more and more eccentric, some boys even turned their heads quietly to look at the silver-haired girl sitting in the middle of the classroom, pointing and discussing something in a low voice.

Vivian has become accustomed to the behavior of her classmates.

She just shook her head slightly with Hermione sitting on her right, and then smiled with Irena on her left to reassure the other person not to be angry.

Then Hermione stopped the operation of her divine power, and her long golden hair that was originally Yang Qi returned to calmness.

Irena also put down her magic gloves and equipment, and at the same time glared at the boys who turned back in front of her, scaring them so much that they quickly turned around and did not dare to say anything more.

No one wants to try the famous Witch Iron Fist a second time.

Irena, who holds the title of [Crap Witch], took just one month to convince all the unconvinced students in the class.

(As for why it has this title, we have to talk about it in the extra chapter.)

Therefore, the kind of "trouble" Vivian and Hermione encountered at school basically did not require action.

She only needs to announce Irena's name to scare off most of the confessors and suitors.

The combination of extraordinary beauty and the temptation of a dragon knight is no joke.

This made many aristocratic children hope to pursue this beauty with silver hair and red eyes and achieve success in one step.

If it hadn't been for the secret protection of Duke Green and the Hart family, maybe this group of people would have forced themselves back.

"Ahem! Be quiet!"

Leona coughed twice quickly to tell those bad boys with dishonest eyes to stop their rude behavior of spying on girls.

She glanced at Vivian with soft eyes.

Leona really liked this girl with a gentle personality. If her sister Carol hadn't stopped her, she would have accepted Vivian as her direct disciple.

In Karen, a magician's direct disciple is sometimes more important than his biological child!

Because your child may not have magical talents and can only inherit those mortal inheritances.

But your direct disciples will inherit all your magic knowledge, magic props and materials. That is the essence of a great mage.

The gap between the two cannot be compared.

Leona coughed twice and then changed the topic to the right track.

"Although dragon-born creatures with strength comparable to real dragons are rare, they still exist. For example, dragon-born creatures like [Dragon Turtle]!"

As she spoke, she pressed the switch of the projection machine with her mage's hand.

A video recording of the voyage appeared on the podium.

This projection mechanism is obviously not perfect, and the picture is burnt yellow, with some black lines flashing from time to time.

It felt like a hand-cranked movie from the older generation.

"Zi——Zi——"

With the rapid operation of the projection array, the entire picture became clearer and clearer. After about thirty seconds, the trembling picture finally stabilized.

"Please remember to watch carefully, this is a rare photograph of a dragon turtle."

Leona looked at the curious people in the audience and said seriously:

“Although you may not need these things in the future, that’s why they are even more important.”

"What the academy teaches you is not the common sense that is usually within reach, but the ability to explore unknown knowledge that no one has ever known."

"The exploration of magic is endless. Teacher hopes that you can go further and further on the road of exploring magic and the world, and eventually create a legend of your own!"

With that said, she started playing the video.

On a vast ocean, a tall merchant ship sailed slowly, and the afterglow of the setting sun rendered a golden sky.

But all the beautiful scenery seems unable to conceal the threat below.

Suddenly, a turtle dozens of meters long with thick beards emerged from the water.

The silver highlights arranged on its rough dark green turtle shell are like sparkling water, the horny scales with barbs shine strangely in the sun, and the fleshy thorns on the dragon's head are full of malice, making people shudder.

The limbs of the dragon turtle are poised above the water, like prey that has entered a trap. The nearly webbed limbs roll up white waves behind it, disturbing the surrounding sea surface.

"boom!"

After a loud noise, the nearly 100-meter-long dragon turtle pounced toward the merchant ship. Its speed was so fast that the entire hull of the nearly 100-meter-long ship shook violently.

A powerful stream of water rolled up a hundred meters high as the dragon turtle's head poked out, and the roaring sound frightened the people on the boat out of their wits.

The water splash flying in the air was perfectly reproduced by the photo camera, and the dark green water droplets splashed towards the apprentices in the audience. The real feeling made the students in the audience at a close distance almost feel that they were on the sea, personally Experienced being attacked by a dragon turtle.

Many students subconsciously shrank their heads to avoid the attack of the splash.

Leona did not stop the projection, but stood quietly in the corner of the classroom, observing the students' reactions.

This will be one of the criteria for the annual assessment of first-year students.

"boom!"

The giant dragon turtle with a body length of more than 100 meters in the picture finally hit the wooden merchant ship. The huge impact like a tsunami made the entire ship tremble. The people on the ship were extremely frightened, even the experienced sailors.

There were continuous roars, explosions, and waves crashing on the sea.

People's cries, cries for help, and prayers are endless.

The Dragon Turtle uses its strength and weight to keep merchant ships under his control.

The entire merchant ship was shaking, and the hull was tilted almost to 70 degrees! Countless cargoes were spilled into the ocean, causing serious losses.

"Roar!"

A deafening sound, similar to a dragon's roar, came from the mouth of this giant turtle-shaped beast.

It clung to the side of the ship with its sharp claws, opened its mouth, and prepared to bite off part of the hull in one bite, thereby invading the interior of the merchant ship.

The image suddenly stopped here, and the entire scene stayed at the scene of the dragon turtle breaking out of the sea.

The second half of this video is too bloody and involves some caravan secrets, so it is not suitable for current first-year students to watch.

"Bah bang bang!"

Leona clapped her hands, waking up the students who were immersed in the image.

The apprentices, who had just woken up from a dream, realized that everything in front of them was just a virtual projection, and the whole classroom suddenly became lively.

"Oh my god! Is this thing bigger than a dragon?"

"I'm sure it weighs less than a hundred Aunt Casss combined!"

"Oh my god, I've seen that caravan's logo in the Karen Encyclopedia! It's said that they were one of the largest caravans in Kaya Bay. It wasn't until a disaster struck a hundred years ago that it went bankrupt. I didn’t expect to be attacked by a dragon turtle.”

The students in the audience were talking a lot. Many students who had books at home or often went to the library recognized the caravan logo.

Leona raised the corner of her mouth slightly, very satisfied with the shocking effect this teaching brought to the students.

These children embarking on the journey of magic need to maintain a sense of awe for nature and other intelligent life.

You must know that not every country is completely dominated by humans like the Rose Kingdom!

For example, the [Frost Kingdom] north of the Frozen Mountains is jointly ruled by a federal government composed of snow elves and humans. The humans there are forced to jointly govern the country with other races.

To the east of the Forgotten Plains, the [Orc Kingdom] established by the orcs on the boundless prairie is extremely exclusive of humans.

Just like the orcs in the Rose Kingdom, humans do not have any human rights in the orc kingdom, and they are completely free to fight and kill as they wish.

If the first Rose Emperor had not expelled the high-level monsters and other intelligent races from the [Rose Kingdom] land, the current Rose Kingdom might still be like 7,000 years ago, coexisting with all races and coexisting with each other.

At that time, humans would only be an inconspicuous part of it, let alone become the masters of Karen.

Leona shook her head to dispel the distracting thoughts in her mind, and continued to explain to the students in the audience with a smile:

"Have you seen it? This is the super giant dragon-born creature [Dragon Turtle]."

"Dragon turtles are one of the most terrifying creatures in the ocean. Their size far exceeds that of real dragons of the same age. Adult dragon turtles can even reach the size of super giant dragons!"

"At the same time, you must remember that dragon turtles are born with legendary characteristics: [Elemental Power], which allows them to have the ability to travel through the main material plane and the water elemental plane, so it is entirely possible for you to encounter them in the North Sea or other sea areas. to theirs.”

"They sometimes pass through the plane rifts on the sea floor and go to the water elemental plane."

"According to classic records, when these dragon turtle individuals are discovered in the water elemental plane, they usually serve as servers for the water djinn, that is, they have spectacular coral thrones installed on their backs to serve as mounts for the water djinn."

"Currently, there have been more than ten recorded incidents of dragon turtles attacking humans in Karen! Seven of them were in the Endless Sea and three in Kaya Bay."

At this point, Leona stopped explaining because the girl with silver hair and red eyes raised her hand.

Everyone unconsciously turned their attention to the beautiful girl.

"Vivian, do you have any questions?"

"Well, teacher, why do the dragon turtles attack human ships?"

This is the first time today that Vivian raises her hand to ask a question.

She didn't like the dragon turtle's constant attacks on humans, but she was more curious.

Leona smiled and nodded:

"That's a good question."

After saying this, Leona turned around and used magic power to write two words on the blackboard:

【instinct】

"instinct?"

Vivian looked at those two words curiously.

Leona smiled at her and nodded, and continued to explain:

"Yes, just like real dragons, dragon turtles also collect treasures, and their way of collecting is to plunder!"

"Not only dragonborn, but most of the true dragons are like this."

"They will first sink human ships, then search for coins and treasures in the wreckage, swallow them, transport them to their lairs, and then regurgitate them."

"I see."

Vivian nodded, seeming to be thinking about something.

"Similarly, the intelligence of dragon turtles is not inferior to that of some dragons living in the [Eternal Frozen Land]. They know how to accept bribes, and pirates sailing in the waters where dragon turtles appear will quickly learn how to offer treasures to them in order to be safe. Passage.”

"So some smart sahuagin living in the endless sea sometimes form alliances with dragon turtles and lure them to benefit. The dragon turtles use their steam breath to support the sahuagin in plundering ships and coastal villages."

Having said this, Leona looked at the sky outside the window, then turned to face the group of shocked students and concluded with a smile:

"If one day you go out to sea and meet a dragon turtle and your strength has not reached the level of legend, you must remember to donate your treasures quickly. This may save your life."

"That's it for today's magic knowledge class. get out of class is over!"

"Vivian, please stay, I have something to tell you."

Leona announced the end of the last class today, then waved and took the silver-haired girl back to her office.

Hermione, on the other hand, silently turned on her invisibility and followed the two of them.

"boom!"

After closing the door, Leona collapsed on the soft sofa at the door like a goblin whose bones had been knocked out.

This made Vivian, who was following behind with a confused look on her face, a bit at a loss.

She stood at the door, looking at Leona's legs spread wide open on the sofa, neither moving in nor moving back.

"Huh - Vivian, don't be stunned. Come in and sit wherever you want, just like it's your own home. This is your first time in my office, right?"

Vivian entered the office with some embarrassment and found a chair to sit down.

She couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable looking at Teacher Leona's stretched body, but she still tried to stay calm.

Leona moved like a worm and untied the golden-red mage robe on her body, then threw it on the clothes rack in the corner.

At the same time, she shook her head and untied the flaming ponytail bound by magic.

Her long, silky bright red hair was scattered on the tan sofa along her devilish figure, looking extremely beautiful.

"That guy Carroll is supervising you so tightly that I can't even put my hands on my forehead to teach you~~~"

"???"

Looking at Vivian's face with an expression of "Did I hear wrongly?"

Leona coughed twice quickly and changed the topic:

"You seem a little confused? Did you not understand the knowledge just now?"

"Well, a little bit."

Vivian put her hands behind her back, bit her lip and admitted.

"What is it about? Dragon turtles? Or sahuagin? Or pirates?"

Leona asked curiously as she lay on the sofa.

At this time, her long legs were straight up, trying to hook the small pink purse hanging at the door.

Those little feet wearing red stockings were dangling in the air, looking particularly playful.

Of course, she crossed her legs in the opposite direction of her student, otherwise it would be too rude.

Vivian looked at the teacher's lazy look, and her white jade face turned a little red.

It's a pity that there is no bubble teapot here, otherwise it would be a killer.

Vivian shifted her gaze, trying to avoid focusing on those dangling little feet.

She first helped bring the pink leather bag to the teacher who was "paralyzed in bed", and then explained in a low voice:

"No, it's about the relationship between dragons and humans you mentioned, Teacher Leona."

"Oh? What's so confusing about this?"

Leona answered subconsciously while rummaging through her pink bag.

Halfway through speaking, a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, and she suddenly understood why Vivian had this doubt.

"Vivian, tell the teacher, do you care about the relationship between real dragons and humans?"

Leona put her bag aside, straightened up and pulled Vivian to her side, asking in a low voice.

[Danger level increased by 0.725%! 】

【Weapons unlocked! 】

At this time, the invisibility state was turned on. Hermione, who was hiding in the corner, suddenly focused her eyes and her long blond hair began to flutter.

Some of the restrictions hidden in her body have been lifted, and she can deal with the fire mage who is close to Vivian at any time.

If it weren't for the relationships between people that Vivian had explained to her these days, Hermione might have taken her away from Leona, a "dangerous person".

Although Vivian's strength has already surpassed Leona's, and she is still a melee mage, she is not afraid of the opponent's close attacks at all.

Leona knew nothing about all this, and she didn't know that she was already hovering on the edge of death.

"Um."

Vivian nodded in agreement.

Leona nodded secretly. Although she had never actually seen it, the news that Vivian had summoned a crystal dragon was already known to everyone in the kingdom's senior leadership.

If it weren't for the legendary strength of [Poseidon] Duke Greene and [Swordmaster] Reinhardt who had just returned to the royal capital, there would be two legendary strong men standing up for this country girl!

I'm afraid those invisible black hands have already reached out to this somewhat innocent silver-haired girl, right?

"But why would the father provide shelter for this child? And that gesture is like a servant."

Leona silently complained about her father's unreasonable behavior.

These days, Duke Greene can be said to have finally gotten rid of the shadow of Poseidon Flute, and has successfully restored the father-daughter relationship with his youngest daughter Carol, which can be called a double happiness!

As the legendary mage approaches his 131st birthday, he has regained his political second life. Under his return, the Green family has regained its former glory, and has completely announced its return to the position of the three Dukes of the Royal Capital.

The chambers of commerce, private armies, and mercenary groups that had been semi-abandoned before were recaptured by the tyrannical Duke Green.

how? Want to embezzle the assets of a legendary mage? Go ask Rodney how he got the title "Poseidon".

That was a name inherited with blood that flooded three coastal cities of the Frost Kingdom!

As for Vivian (the one who summoned Ron) who brought about all these changes, the Duke of Greene regarded her as an ancestor and wanted to support her!

He didn't know how many legs he broke just from the noble boys in the royal capital who wanted to propose marriage to Vivian.

Among them were many children from the earl and duke families, but he hit them without fail!

If others don’t know, doesn’t he know?

The love in the eyes of the little silver-haired girl when she looked at her dragon master couldn't be more explicit!

Although Ron didn't express any response, what if he came back and found out that Vivian was plagued by male confessions every day and he didn't do anything?

Duke Green felt that he might die miserably, far more than just breaking a few bones.

Therefore, in front of outsiders, Duke Rodney's attitude towards Vivian is exactly this: Don't touch her, if you do, I will fight you to the death! It’s not even easy for the king to do that!

No more gossip.

Leona looked at the silver-haired girl next to her with concern:

"Vivian, are you worried that your true dragon summoned beast will conflict with humans? Which side should you stand on?"

As soon as these words came out, the room suddenly became extremely silent.

Vivian's originally shy expression slowly faded away. She raised her head, looked into the teacher's eyes, and said seriously:

"Teacher, Ron is not my summoned beast. We are good friends."

"and"

"I never worry about having to make that choice. As long as he chooses a direction, I will rush forward without hesitation, even if there is a human standing opposite!"

Speaking of this, Vivian raised the corners of her mouth slightly, the breeze blew through her long silver hair, and her face was full of smiles, as if she were an angel descending from earth.

She looked at the confused Leona and said with a smile:

"I was just wondering, if Ron needs treasure, which ship carries more gold coins, or which merchant house has more money?"

"Teacher, can you help me answer this question?"

Things in the capital are always interesting and full of mysteries.

I believe Leona will re-understand what kind of girl Vivian is after this incident.

On the red earth highlands at this time

The originally colorful lake had turned into a transparent original state, while the ground around the lake was in tatters as if it had been swept by a storm.

A hundred-meter-long crystal dragon was stepping on a dragon turtle of similar size, with a joking expression on its face.
