Chapter 256: Chapter 251: After the Battle Chapter 256: Chapter 251: After the Battle In Bologna, at the top of the Mage Tower that reached a kilometer high, Muria sat on a rattan chair, sipping tea, and toying with a somewhat comical clown mask. Through the crystal window, he admired the night view of the bustling city.

As it was his core city within his territory, Kaslana was not stingy with her wealth. She carried out massive infrastructure projects, such as crystal street lights and colorful fountains, that beautified every corner of the city with basic magic facilities.

So, when night fell, the city was as radiant as the modern metropolis in Muria’s previous life, exhibiting a beautiful display of lights.

“So, it was this ugly mask that you used to unleash the Legendary Dragon Power!” Kaslana was sitting next to him, her cup full of tea looking like magma, her golden eyes curiously examining the Clown Royal mask in Muria’s hand.

“Yes.” Muria passed the mask to her, “If you don’t believe it, you can try it on. It’s an interesting item.”

“No, it’s too ugly.” Kaslana looked at the mask on the tea table between them with distaste, “How did you make such a big commotion then, and what was with that intense battle fluctuation? You don’t have legendary-level powers when you put on the mask.”

“Easy, Barbosa had his Ghost Ship fire blank rounds, and he himself was swinging his sword at the air. He also threw over a bunch of high-level magic scrolls. I activated them and flung them into the sky.”

“What about those magic scrolls?”

“I used them all.” Muria shrugged, “Anyway, I can’t take them with me, so might as well enjoy being a powerful mage. It’s great fun!”

“True that. Muria, this time, you were really in the spotlight.” Kaslana looks at Muria with glee, “Almost every young giant dragon who partook in the mission owes you for saving them. Once they return, they’ll definitely do their best to help you scout information about those six, Five-Colored Dragons.”

“It’s only right to help one another during times of difficulty within our kindred.” Muria replied calmly, “I didn’t help them for that reason.”

“Some dragons won’t expect a reward if they manage to find those Five Colored Dragons for you.”

“The reward must still be given.” Muria smiled, “I can’t break my promise.”

Greed is only one characteristic of the giant dragon. Pride and arrogance are synonymous with it. This creature has a very high sense of self-esteem, so even if they are saved by someone else of their kind who has stronger bloodline and power, they would have a hard time accepting it graciously.

So, these self-respecting dragons will willingly help Muria without asking anything in return — this sentiment is simple: you’ve helped me, so I definitely want to help you. If not, it makes me uncomfortable, restive, and I can’t sleep well (This only applies to metallic dragons).

“All the giant dragons you’ve saved are indebted to you. That’s your biggest gain from participating in the mission to capture Bertlein. As for your second gain…

Because this time, the successful capture and sealing of Berlaint allowed us to complete the joint bounty set by the Dragon God and the Dragon Kings, so every giant dragon that participated in the war will have a reward.

And you, you’ve helped so many of our kindred, whose bodies and souls were tarnished, to re-enter the eternal sleep. Aside from the Ancient Dragons, your contributions and efforts have been the greatest.

So, among the rewards given by the Dragon God and the Dragon Kings, yours, excluding those of the Ancient Dragons, is definitely the most generous.”

“Hmm, if it’s delivered, leave it here as the reward money for those six Five-Colored Dragons.” Muria nodded, showing no interest in the reward that Kaslana mentioned.

The rewards bestowed by the Dragon God and Dragon Kings are unknown at the moment, but the highest and most valuable reward is said to be a drop of the Dragon King’s True Blood, which can enhance the bloodline rank and break the bloodline fetters.

Therefore, upon learning this, Muria lost immediate interest in this so-called reward. He had already merged with the Dragon King’s Primordial Blood, so why would he care about the Dragon King’s True Blood?

“Muria, I don’t know what your reward is, but according to your achievements, it is definitely worth more than six thousand cubic Elemental Crystals.” Kaslana spoke, “It is not appropriate to use it as a bounty, moreover, the bounty amount you’ve set is already high.”

“Alright,” Muria scratched his chin. “Let’s see what the reward is when the time comes.”

“Oh yes, in a couple of days, The Dawn Church will bring you the reward for the four Soul Intent Level werewolves that you helped capture. Moreover, the fee for your help in capturing the Red Dragon Otlis and the Green Dragon will also be sent over.”

“What will they give in gratitude?” Muria curiously asked.

“Besides Elemental Crystals, what else could it be?”

“Oh!” hearing that it was Elemental Crystals, Muria immediately lost interest.

“Probably no less than eight thousand cubes!”

“That much?” Muria was taken aback.

“This is my estimate of the reward, considering your identity, it might be even more.” Kaslana gave Muria a glance. “As the offspring of Archmage Atris, The Dawn Church won’t be stingy with Elemental Crystals to build a good relationship with you.”

“Build a good relationship with me!” Muria’s mouth twitched. What were they planning?

“It is essential. Now you’ve just appeared, many forces are unaware of your existence. After a while, when your existence is known to the churches of the benevolent gods and some other forces.

They will go out of their way to send you treasures, money, territories, and even beautiful females.”

“It sounds pretty good.” Muria licked his lips casually.

“Don’t be complacent.” Kaslana gave Muria a look, “Once your existence spreads, there will be forces who wish to make friends and forces who wish to suppress you. Our Dragon Clan has no shortage of enemies.”

“Is that so!” Muria’s lips curled up, “Let them come then, I am always ready.”

“Muria, you are not at the Legendary level yet, so try to keep a low profile.” Seeing Muria’s fighting spirit, Kaslana’s face showed worry, “Your mother, Archmage Atris, offended many powerful entities and forces because she likes to uphold justice. They couldn’t do anything to her because of her powerful strength, but as soon as they find out about your existence, they will pour out all their resentment and anger towards your mother on you.”

“Just a bunch of wastes, not afraid!” After hearing, Muria still showed no fear.

“Including the Legendary ones!” Kaslana warned.

Muria furrowed his brows. He knew his own weight. At the Soul Intent Level, even though he was only at the Second Tier, with the nine exclusive weapons and the Saintly Imperial Abyss that already fused with his dragon scales, not many Soul Intent Level beings in Elasia could compete with him.

However, Legendary and Soul Intent were not on the same life stage. Soul Intent was powerless against Legendary, which possessed almost invincible ability against beings below the Legendary level — Space.

“Alright, I will keep a low profile for now.” Muria pondered for a while and nodded. The Legendary ones were not something he could provoke now. The power of space was beyond the resistance of those at the Soul Intent Level.

Even if a mage could take advantage of wisdom to preemptively steal the power of space, developing all kinds of teleportation magic, it would never be as well-controlled as a true legendary being.
