65. The Current Appearance
“You bastard, stop… How can I, the Knight King, tolerate someone like you…”
Before the Dragon King’s family could leave, Kyle roared.
Elena’s assistant, at this moment, was also anxious. She immediately used a court-level magic item to contact more subordinates, including the commander of the Mage Corps and the [Exchange Squad], all of whom were Elena’s subordinates.
“Kyle, don’t do this, at least not here! Otherwise, you’ll be in danger!”
Kyle didn’t feel he was in much danger.
First of all, he knew he was definitely no match for the two dragons opposite him. Just from their aura, he could tell that this was not an opponent he could defeat now… especially that silver-haired Dragon King, a true and genuine strongest creature.
Cold-blooded, rational, and ruthless.
But it was precisely because he was rational that he was not in danger.
The relationship between humans and dragons was not too tense. With the establishment of Lekadis, war seemed to have become a rather ancient word. And with his identity, if a war broke out, it would mean a confrontation between the dragons and humans. He was the commander of the Knight Order, one of Elena’s current guards, the highest position in the empire, the pinnacle of many knights’ dreams.
Although he didn’t pursue great military achievements, he had long known that there was a vague barrier between the dragons and humans, which made them not understand each other enough.
Including culture, but more importantly, each other’s strength.
The dragon race was not strong at all.
Even if one dragon was far superior to one human, Delgon’s current strength should be far superior to the dragon’s.
The Dragon King couldn’t possibly not know the gap between them.
And to protect their last resources… that is, the nominal ownership of Lekadis, the dragon race couldn’t possibly provoke him!
And as long as this matter reached Elena’s ears, at that time, he would be in the spotlight, and the veil of the dragon race’s weakness would be completely lifted, and they would truly usher in a peak period.
Thinking of this, a natural arrogance appeared on his face.
A glimmer of light flashed in his hawk-like eyes, and his fear was even dispelled by his confidence.
This was his motivation to continue forward!
“Listen up, you dragons! Your disrespect to the emperor will be forever remembered in history. This time, we’ll let it go, you…”
Everyone was looking at him. The gazes of the humans and the other races accommodated by Delgon were focused on him.
…
His voice stopped the next moment.
He stared at the three dragon girls, and when he saw the slightly petite azure eyes… the dragon princess’s eyes, his legs instantly lost all feeling.
And the price of losing feeling was kneeling on both knees. Then he felt suffocated, as if something was about to gush out of his throat, but it suddenly stopped and flowed back to his heart.
His bloodshot eyes were wide open, and all the blood vessels in his body were about to explode.
The poor Kyle just knelt before Celes like that.
“Hehe…”
When this feeling stopped, Celes, who had been looking at him with cold eyes, happily turned her head and was about to hug her mommy. Her eyes were sparkling with anticipation, and she even wanted to lick her mommy to stop.
“Mommy, I succeeded! I released my authority!”
“Good girl, that’s how you use it.”
Celes had learned many combat techniques from Calysia, and among them, the suppression of low-level creatures was authority. Releasing an invisible magic power to weaken the opponent’s fighting spirit, if it was strong enough, it could even make the opponent faint on the spot. And Celes had mastered it just right.
“Mr. Kyle, why are you kneeling before the dragon race?”
Pesa pursed her lips and smiled, but her voice held a hint of questioning.
“Your Holiness… you, let me explain…”
“What’s there to explain? I will truthfully report this matter, which has damaged the dignity of the Knight Order, to Elena.”
Pesa chuckled and walked away, and the surrounding commoners also began to discuss.
They didn’t know what authority was, or what illness the Knight Commander had. They only knew that this grandiose existence, who had been flaunting his power in the newspapers, had actually provoked the dragon race in public and even knelt down. Everything he had just done was like a madman, like a child without manners and upbringing.
…
Five days later, Kyle’s incident was truthfully recorded by the church’s propaganda team, photos were taken, and it was widely circulated in the newspapers. This issue’s theme was conveniently named after Kyle.
“That guy Kyle… he brought it on himself. We reminded him in advance. Who knew they would actually report it.”
Looking at the emperor, Elena, who was sitting in a chair and reading with her head down, her assistant explained with a bow.
“It’s all his fault for damaging your face. We will do our best to get it back.”
“Disband him. His Knight Order and he himself are not suitable to be [Palace Guards].”
“There are many candidates for the Palace Guard. We’re not short of one Kyle.”
Elena’s voice was devoid of any emotion.
She glanced at the book on the table, and on a randomly opened page, she saw her gentle expression during her speech. Instantly, she felt a pain in her heart, as if she had been pricked by a needle.
“Is that really so? Although many people have a power of over level 90, I can dispatch them for you at any time.”
“I just want to be quiet now.”
“Yes.”
After the assistant left, Elena lay on the table.
To make it convenient to read various books, Elena had opened a private library in the north of the imperial capital. The library had a total of seven floors, each 2000 square meters, and contained books from all over the world. This was her favorite form of entertainment.
But now, looking at these past interests and various paintings, she had no desire at all. Instead, she wanted to sleep, to think about some things, to think about what had happened that day.
Yes, she had agreed.
Reina had agreed with her, and had even said she would take her home. Did she know her current predicament?
But she couldn’t think at all. What did that represent?
“Ahhh…”
Elena let out a soft moan, and sharp horns appeared on both sides of her forehead.
Black dragon wings covered the lamplight, as if they could blot out the sky. Even her pupils turned a terrifying ink-black. Instantly, the young woman became the most terrifying creature under the night sky.
She placed her hands on her thighs, which were wrapped in knee-high stockings, and tidied her gorgeous dress, so that her tail could safely bypass the chair… so she wouldn’t directly crash the room.
“Teacher Bud, Lady Dragon Queen, home…”
“What should I choose? I’m a demon. I’m a dragon now.”
“Awoo…”
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
She instantly retracted all her demonic aura.
Who was the person outside?
With her dragon’s keen perception, she could clearly sense the other’s aura.
She remembered that besides her assistant and Pesa, she had never given anyone else the right to casually enter her private library.
…They are humans, obviously.
Who could it be?
