112. An Easy to Understand Dummy (Part 6)
Reina’s mind went blank.
For a moment, she had no idea what was happening.
Calysia was crying.
She’s crying?!
She actually cried in front of everyone!
Cried…
Reina couldn’t even understand it.
When she finally realized what was happening, she immediately stepped forward, hugged Calysia’s head, and pulled her face to her chest.
Even though countless eyes were watching them, Reina wanted to harshly scold this dummy.
What are you doing crying at your own wedding?!
You’ll lose all your dignity!
I haven’t even cried yet! If anyone should be crying, it’s me!
Suddenly, Reina remembered something, and her anger subsided.
Yes, why was she crying?
She suddenly recalled past events.
At that time, Calysia had lost all her power and was brought to an unknown village by Reina, where they began a normal life together.
Even though she was clumsy, even though she had lost her power and couldn’t do anything,
She still tried her best to do everything perfectly.
And when Reina returned home, Calysia would greet her with the most beautiful and charming posture.
For several years, Calysia seemed to be putting on a show.
Even before they parted, she could only shed tears of regret.
—She couldn’t express her own feelings.
“I’m sorry…”
Her thoughts returned to the present, and Reina whispered, her words only for Calysia.
Calysia might be a little foolish, but she wasn’t stupid.
She realized that her identity had been exposed and knew what would happen next.
This was perhaps an act of desperation.
She knew she was wrong, she knew she shouldn’t have hidden it from me.
—This little girl had no malice,
Not even in matters of money.
She didn’t have that many malicious thoughts. She just followed her own will, wanting to win my love.
So, when she realized that Little Cal’s identity was exposed, she must have connected many things.
Including the promise of “laying eggs,”
She intended to control her emotions, just like before.
Just like she had always done.
But facing me, she couldn’t control her emotions.
And then, she cried.
It was that simple.
Two days ago, she could have sought me out and confessed her true feelings.
But some things, you just don’t want to know the truth.
Reina understood Calysia’s feelings better than anyone.
She patted Calysia’s head.
At this point, saying “I don’t mind” or anything like that was too late.
She raised her voice and said:
“I forgave you a long time ago, you dummy. I like you.”
This sentence was like a calming pill for everyone. Those who had been suspecting a change in the situation were instantly relieved, believing that this was a genuine clash and entanglement of emotions, that the two were just playing around like any other loving couple.
Calysia looked up with teary eyes, her voice almost inaudible, completely unlike the Dragon King from before:
“I’m sorry, originally… I wanted to tell you tonight…”
Reina finally understood.
Calysia’s emotions had already recovered because of her.
This Dragon King, who was on the verge of tears, seemed nothing like the aloof dummy from before.
She just needed Reina by her side.
At this moment, whispers began to ripple through the crowd.
They discussed the couple’s love, speculating about their future children and the future of the dragon race.
But most people remained silent, quietly admiring this beautiful scene.
“Calysia, will you take responsibility for me?”
Before Calysia could stammer out a reply, Reina asked in a voice that could be heard throughout the hall.
The entire hall fell silent.
Reina’s words echoed through the wedding hall like a magic spell.
Countless girls blushed, instantly understanding Reina’s meaning:
Azure Scale wants children.
A dragon conceiving a dragon egg requires the attentive care of their mate.
Therefore, she needed the Dragon King to take responsibility.
From a romantic perspective, the Dragon King couldn’t possibly refuse Reina in public.
And if she didn’t give an answer in front of everyone, it would ruin the atmosphere.
Therefore, she practically only had one option: to agree.
—Azure Scale is using this to get pregnant with the Dragon King’s offspring as soon as possible!
How romantic~
You wouldn’t want to be a heartbreaker, would you, Dragon King?~
“Eh…?”
Calysia was still immersed in her sadness, caught off guard by the sudden proposal.
A faint smile finally appeared on her sad face.
“What’s wrong?”
Reina’s expression was deep.
She was just trying to comfort Calysia, and her words were just asking Calysia to take responsibility for her as her wife.
She didn’t know why the reaction from the crowd was so strange.
And Calysia was actually scared at this moment, which was unbelievable.
“I…”
“I will take full responsibility for Reina.”
After a few seconds of hesitation, Calysia said firmly.
Calysia wasn’t as fragile as she had imagined. She looked up, wiped away her tears, and took Reina’s hands, their fingers interlacing.
At that moment, the entire hall erupted in cheers.
Praises filled the air, and the ornate chandeliers above them shone with brilliant, colorful lights.
Reina suddenly felt that
the eyes that had fought with her hundreds of times could actually shed such sad tears, and become joyful under her own actions.
Reina had thought about manipulating Calysia, but after truly grasping her emotions, she felt a sense of loss.
And now, she decided to retract her arrogant idea of “manipulating emotions.”
Because real coercion would only lead to a girl’s tears.
This was the dragon race’s concept of love.
As expected, Calysia can’t live without me~
Seeing that things had reached this point, Reina decided to play the game to the fullest.
She fully embraced the role of the Dragon King’s little wife, saying shyly and bashfully:
“Yes, then it’s a promise.”
“Little Vassal…”
Finally, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, they kissed each other on the lips.
…
The night in the Dragon King’s Palace was almost no different from the day.
After the wedding, Reina and Calysia had time to be alone.
They flew side by side.
They flew to the sky above the villas in the Silver Dragon Airspace, then out of the Silver Dragon Airspace, descending to the sea, skimming over countless rocky beaches, and speeding through the hills on the north coast, flying with the wind to the southern archipelago.
It was originally just a romantic flight together.
But later, their flight became chaotic and spontaneous.
Wherever Reina flew, Calysia would follow.
They flew in silence.
When Reina felt a little tired, she flew back to the Silver Dragon Airspace, back to the Dragon King’s Palace.
Calysia followed close behind.
After they returned to the bedchamber, Reina clearly felt that Calysia was more enthusiastic, more at ease, and more proactive in wanting to be intimate with her.
As expected of a dragon.
After returning to the bedchamber, Reina said, “I’m going to tidy up,” and left Calysia.
Actually, she had nothing to tidy up.
She went to the most secret treasury in the Dragon King’s Palace, where her prepared Light Clone was waiting.
She looked at the clone, identical to herself, sat on the floor, and thought for a full 20 minutes before extending her hand and, with a flick of her finger, dispelling it completely, turning it into dark light.
This was the clone originally intended for her escape.
It was no longer needed.
Compared to these immature plans, Reina realized that she had to focus on the present.
After her bath, she went to the bedroom, feeling refreshed.
By the moonlight, she saw the melancholic face of Calysia, sitting on the bed.
—She was still sad.
Reina climbed onto the bed.
Under Calysia’s shocked gaze, she untied her bathrobe, revealing her precious body as both a dragon and a woman.
“Reina?”
“Master Calysia…”
Reina blushed even before she spoke.
But this was all to manage Calysia.
It was only a matter of time before she was completely hers.
It just required a little…
Thinking this, her tail intertwined with Calysia’s, a unique foreplay of the dragon race.
“I never blamed you,”
“Why do you look so sad?”
Calysia froze, and tears welled up in her beautiful eyes again.
She hugged Reina tightly and pinned her down on the bed.
This time, the usually gentle Calysia showed a hint of possessiveness towards Reina.
She caressed Reina’s earlobe and left a small kiss on her fair neck.
She whispered softly:
“It might hurt a little.”
