Under the Red Dragon

The blue dragon's eyes were full of satisfaction, like a big cat that had eaten its favorite canned food.

Having another worker, the happy blue dragon opened its big mouth, used its tongue to roll up the little cub in front of it, and carefully held it in its mouth.

It turned its head and placed it between the ferocious saber-toothed lion whose spine was torn apart but still had strong vitality and the giant antelope whose body was already dead and stiff.

"Eat, my little cub, eat as much as you like. I look forward to your growth." The blue dragon turned around and walked into the cave, lazily lying down, squinting its eyes and watching the young dragon eating.

The two beast corpses in front of him were giant beasts to the young dragon's size, but the innate dragon perception told Little Caron who the more energy-rich target was.

So the hungry young dragon crawled and rolled over the ferocious saber-toothed lion's abdomen, and followed the giant beast's torn spine to bite down.

He tore off the thick fur that was tough enough for the young dragon, until the abdomen was exposed, and began to tear at the most fatty abdomen, eating large mouthfuls.

Blood and fat splattered everywhere, but it did not affect Little Caron's appetite. When people are starving, they even eat soil, let alone now that he is just a dragon.

Physiological habits have a greater impact, so the bloody flesh covered in rust became a sweet delicacy, tempting his greedy appetite.

After eating a large piece of flesh from the abdomen, Little Caron burrowed into the ferocious saber-toothed lion's abdominal cavity and began to carefully search for the heart and liver.

In order to avoid cutting through the stomach and intestines and getting some strange taste, he had not yet reached the point where he would eat anything raw or cold.

For the young dragon, the internal organs are the most nutritious food for growth and development, and also the easiest to digest.

The rich nutrition can accelerate the growth of some organs in the body that have not yet fully grown and matured. He has now become a rice dragon(干饭龙: rice dragon, meaning someone who eats a lot).

Little Caron stopped eating only when his stomach was as bloated as a pregnant toad.

He began to lick the blood and flesh attached to his body and claws clean, and then walked to the blue dragon mother's side with a waddle.

After eating his fill, his mind was drowsy, and he felt sleepy. He entered a dream, and his consciousness returned to the familiar dream vortex, and he fell asleep peacefully.

As one of the most perfect creatures in the world, one of the most enviable characteristics of giant dragons is that they do not need to meditate or exercise, nor do they need to take risks.

As long as they sleep peacefully in their nests, the dragon's power will increase with the size of their bodies. In theory, this can be stacked infinitely.

The dragon's slumber is also a necessary process for gradually absorbing and digesting its own dragon inheritance, and it will gradually awaken its own magical abilities as it grows older.

Although there are the same fixed awakening spells for each species, the differences between individuals are also particularly large.

However, Little Caron is not yet the time to enter hibernation, just normal sleep.

Hatchlings need a body adaptation process of a few days to ten days depending on individual differences, body coordination and organ adaptation and body regulation.

Generally speaking, when the claws on the hatchling's horns and wings have completed normal hardening, and the scales have also completed adaptation, it is time for the hatchling to enter its first hibernation.

······

Ugh, the young hatchling opened its eyes and lazily spread out its pale pink fleshy wings.

With a wag of its tail, it opened its mouth and yawned, spitting out a few sparks.

In the early stages of the red dragon hatchling, the scales and armor on its body are fine and dense, bright and bright red, like pieces of small, bright red gemstone artworks. Even under the dim cave dome, its whole body emits a red halo.

Such conspicuous colors are a dangerous cause in the wild, and are not conducive to the survival of young red dragons in the wild. Predators will discover this conspicuous package among the five-colored dragons at the first time.

And the prey will escape early because they are aware of the arrival of the red dragon in advance, so even though the red dragon cubs who have just been born from the eggshell can rely on their strength and sharp teeth to fight adult humans, the result will only be death without the protection of their parents.

However, Little Caron has really lived a young master's life these days, with clothes to reach out for, oh, there are no clothes, but he can open his mouth to eat.

Every day, he only needs to lie in the cave with the blue dragon mother Carlit and sleep soundly, while another male juvenile blue dragon, Akz, is responsible for hunting, and will deliver the prey on time every day.

Akz does not live on this mountain peak. His nest is on the top of a low mountain a few miles away from the blue dragon mother's cave.

Akz is a suitor of the blue dragon mother Carlit. The two dragons met during their travels and were attracted by the blue dragon's beautiful and slender body.

So, he was induced by the blue dragon mother to sign a contract. Akz serves the blue dragon mother, and he will have priority in mating with the blue dragon Carlit after he becomes an adult.

After Little Caron learned about this situation, he said that Akz is finished for the rest of his life as a worker and a love brain(恋爱脑: love brain, meaning someone who is easily infatuated).

Probably no matter who it is, no matter how beautiful, there will always be some troubles in life.

Little Caron's trouble comes from another female red dragon, his sister Kleinaya, who was born one day later than him.

The two eggs came from the same nest, and the time between births was not long, and the sizes were roughly the same.

Kleinaya has already begun to provoke Little Caron, whether it is during eating or resting.

Although they are only hatchlings, giant dragons can probably be called creatures who are born knowing.

The evil dragon inheritance in their minds naturally endows the hatchlings with a relatively complete worldview and values based on the true dragon race, so if the giant dragons you see all show a stubborn and inflexible appearance.

There is no need to doubt the other party's IQ. This is just because they are too deeply influenced by the dragon inheritance.

This is the natural strength of giant dragons, and also their natural shortcomings.

The evil dragon nature in the bloodline is constantly influencing the giant dragons, making them more greedy, prone to irritability, advocating power, and always thinking about challenging the status of other dragons.

Kleinaya has already begun to be dissatisfied with Caron's priority in eating every time, dissatisfied that the sweet internal organs and the fat belly are occupied by Caron, while she can only gnaw on the butt every time, although the butt is also a fat-rich area.

Not only that, Kleinaya also wants to establish a leadership position over Caron. Red dragons are born ambitious and are known for being a matriarchal society.

Because the lazy and powerful male dragons are too lazy to build families, those powerful male red dragons only like to be lone rangers and bandits who run rampant in one area.

As long as those red dragons form a family, they are basically ruled by the red dragon queen, so it is understandable that the little female dragon wants to be above the little male dragon.

However, forming a family is not common for red dragons who like to be bandits and lone rangers, it can be said to be very rare.

Even female red dragons, only a few like to build families, such troublesome things.

This is one of the reasons why red dragon families are matriarchal clans, only female red dragons are willing to build families, and male red dragons are just bastards who like to prostitute for free(白嫖: Bái piáo, means 'get something for free or take advantage of someone').

Caron also doesn't want to indulge this little female dragon, although he doesn't care about someone riding on him.

But what he cares about is the method of riding on him, and obviously this method cannot be accepted.

The abundant energy and nutritious food is one of the aids to his growth, and he will not let the little female dragon have it just for this.

And although he has a stable consciousness formed in the old world, he is not smeared by the dragon inheritance from a blank soul, and he is more consciously in control of himself, so as to avoid more smearing.

His current free will does not want to be controlled by other factors, even his own body.

After all, he himself is a control freak. The difference is that many control freaks like to control others, he only controls himself.

Even so, Caron is deeply influenced by the evil dragon bloodline in his body. Maybe his will is not strong enough, or maybe his autonomous soul is not strong enough.

He feels that he is also deeply troubled by the innate evil roots of the evil dragon, and has become more arrogant, impulsive, and belligerent.

And the source of the trouble comes from Kleinaya's growth. Red dragons are a matriarchal society, with many queen dragons who rule the giant dragons.

The size of this female red dragon of the same age is obviously larger than that of the male red dragon in the early stage.

Now, after a few days of development and growth, Kleinaya's size can already be seen to be a little larger than Caron of the same age.

If this situation continues, the size difference will be more obvious when the two hatchlings pass through their first hibernation period. Maybe Kleinaya will be a circle larger than Caron by then.

Although this only happens in the early stage, just like ladies always develop earlier than men.

In the middle and late stages, male dragons will gradually far surpass female dragons, but Caron does not want to be suppressed in the early stage.

If he has no other way, the gap between him and Kleinaya will become larger and larger in the early stage, and he will eventually have to bow his head and admit defeat.

Caron thought, that dream vortex where his consciousness sinks every time he sleeps, he can feel that it is a gift from the old world and a gift from the newborn.

But he is like a person guarding a treasure house without a key. He still doesn't know what this gift is specifically, and how to use it.

Roar, thinking of this, Little Caron's originally happy wagging tail stopped.

It was slumped, its head was also weakly resting on the ground, and it roared unhappily.

The blue dragon mother, who was still squinting and sleeping, was awakened by the low roar. The long tail behind her raised and rolled, and the tip of her tail gently tapped on the little cub's head.

Caron looked at the dragon mother's rolling tail, and his eyes lit up, throwing his troubles aside.

He pounced on it with open teeth and claws, bit the tip of its tail, kicked with all four limbs, and shook his head and brain to tear it.
