89. Probing
After Reina’s little dragon was taken away by Calysia, Reina jumped up in shock and stood up shyly.
The original training plan had fallen through, and the result was that she had taken a nap outside with her three little dragons.
Except for Celes—her expression was complicated.
Reina wanted to ask what was going on, but then she realized that Celes had lost.
Her entire body was not stained with dust, and she had not been hindered much when flying. Moreover, she was not injured. She shouldn’t have worried so much in the first place, not to mention that Calysia was “covering for her.”
“Mommy…”
When Celes looked at Reina, she almost cried. That expression was as if to say, “I’ve brought shame upon you.”
Reina coaxed her for a long time.
Celes didn’t dare to cry out in front of her little sisters… This was the first time she had lost to someone else in terms of ability.
But when Reina told Celes what the Blood Queen’s level was, she finally had a concept.
“Did I just have a flying competition with someone who stands at the pinnacle of living beings?”
“Yes, Celes has a lot of room for improvement. Your mother didn’t have much of a record when she was in school. You are already the strongest dragon in our family.”
Only then did Celes relax. Her tail secretly wrapped around Reina’s calf, and she was so praised that her eyes were full of little stars. Reina thought she was no longer anxious, but Celes sneakily asked:
“Mommy, who is the strongest being in the whole world? Is it Mommy?”
“Yes, it’s me.”
“Oh?”
Celes said with a mischievous smile:
“Mommy is lying. Every time Mother touches you, you fall down. Isn’t Mother the strongest?”
“That’s just me letting her,” Reina’s face turned into a steam engine.
“Anyway, the title of the strongest creature belongs to your mother. Now, no one in the whole world should be able to surpass her.”
Speaking of which, Reina looked into the distance at Little Cal, who was discussing something with Sophia, and was suddenly in a daze.
“Why?” Celes was still a little confused. She certainly knew that the “battle” in bed was not a real battle. In her imagination, the strongest dragon could produce the best-tasting nutrients, and Mommy must be the strongest dragon.
“Mommy used to be a god, and Mother Calysia was a dragon princess, just like me, and she didn’t have such a good mommy.”
“Hehe…”
Reina was a little guilty.
“Without nutrition, without education, why is she stronger than Mommy?”
“I’m your mother’s vassal.”
Reina had originally wanted to hide it from her, but at this point, she could only explain what a vassal meant.
“In other words, I’m her servant. I can’t resist any of her actions, and I have to be her lifelong slave. Generally speaking… becoming someone’s vassal is more humiliating than being a captive.”
“But Mother has never ordered Mommy around. I thought Mommy had the most say in this family.”
“I definitely have the most say!” Reina said with a mysterious smile.
Celes didn’t seem to understand.
She only knew that Mommy was very stubborn, but also very foolish, so she just nodded. She somewhat knew what Mommy meant.
Calysia and Sophia talked about something.
Seeing Little Cal’s smiling face, Reina knew that Sophia was praising Calysia again.
Every time she saw her smile, Reina’s heart would itch.
To let her feel the beauty of the world was Reina’s goal all along.
After listening carefully to what they were talking about, Reina finally discovered that Sophia was actually praising Reina’s appearance and talent.
Calysia, hearing someone praise her wife so much, her face was like a blooming flower… even if someone praised her, she wouldn’t smile so happily.
Reina suddenly felt that Little Cal didn’t know at all what Sophia was saying.
She could tell it was goodwill, and the topic was all about Reina. She was already very satisfied. Every time she spoke, she would try her best to be elegant and dignified. When she gently covered her lips and smiled, her eyes would turn into a crescent moon. At this time, her eyelashes would become even more beautiful.
She closed her eyes, and on the surface, she was listening to the other person’s voice, but in fact, she was completely immersed in her own world, a dummy.
Someone like this would often think that others were dummies, but in fact, as soon as her wife and children were mentioned, she would be unable to walk.
She was the kind of person you couldn’t wake up even if you called her.
“Little sister Reina?”
“Lady Dragon Queen…”
Reina suddenly felt someone touching her tail. She turned around and saw that it was actually Celes.
Calysia had come to her side long ago, and Sophia was the one who had “woken her up.”
“Lady Dragon Queen is really hard to wake up. She was stunned when she saw the Dragon King. Could it be that she was bewitched by the Dragon King?” Sophia smiled, which made Reina’s face turn white and red, and for a moment, she didn’t know what to say.
How did I get so engrossed again?
No, no…
Now is not the time.
And it’s impossible. It’s only human nature!
Calysia, she sent the little dragons to the water park at Lekadis School, so Reina had a brief opportunity to talk to Sophia.
Just as her eyes met Sophia’s, the world seemed to fall silent.
She was always smiling, but it had no meaning. She was just smiling.
But it was this smile that made Reina a little nervous. Although Sophia hadn’t turned into a dragon, which meant she was still hiding something from her, after seeing the “Goddess of Light’s remains,” her personality had completely reversed.
Those three days, Sophia hadn’t done anything.
Reina had originally been worried that she would continue to drink blood, but ever since she had finished drinking blood at their first meeting, she would spend eight hours a day kneeling beside her, her hands clasped together, as if she were praying. Just like that, nothing happened next. It was just that Sophia had not invited Reina to her royal palace again.
She had definitely discovered something, or rather, remembered something.
Sophia was the last Blood Queen of the Primordial Era. Strictly speaking, she was one of the few remaining blood race members who still maintained their ancient “bloodlust.”
Her experiences, and the people and things she had seen, those memories, were all a blank after being erased. No one knew what secrets she and the past held.
Reina’s wariness of her had not completely dissipated.
But.
If she could get the information from her and ensure that everything was safe, then there would be no problem.
“Sophia, although this is a bit sudden, I want to know, what did the last queen of the Primordial Era, the Blood Queen, do in the Primordial Era?”
This sentence had a slightly probing meaning.
“Little sister Reina, why are you suddenly asking this?”
Sophia touched her lips.
She had almost already defaulted to the fact that she knew everything.
Before Reina could explain, Sophia said with a smile:
“By the way, little sister Reina, from now on, I’ll just call you Reina…”
