Chapter 347: Chapter 342: Interesting Misunderstanding Chapter 347: Chapter 342: Interesting Misunderstanding Muria watched the goblin named Stalon and his stall slowly disappeared before his eyes. Throughout this process, Muria didn’t sense any spatial fluctuations.

Just as if this planar merchant never existed, Muria felt like everything he just experienced was an illusion.

“What a wasted name!” Seeing the goblin merchant Stalon disappear, Muria couldn’t help but mutter under his breath.

“What are you saying, Muria?” Troy, who had always been perched on Muria’s shoulder, stared at him in surprise. Not until this moment did he hear Muria speak.

“In your eyes, what was I just doing?”

“Weren’t you just staring at that knight statue and thinking about something?” Troy, now having taken the form of a small white cat, looked perplexed. “Did you do anything else?”

“A goblin was here just now,” Muria pointed at the empty area in front of him. “I made a trade with him.”

“…” The small white cat fixated his blue vertical pupils on Muria, then carefully examined the place where Muria had just pointed at, his claws unconsciously scratching on Muria’s shoulder.

“I didn’t see the goblin you mentioned. Neither you nor I should be hallucinating, so, what’s so special about this goblin you traded with?”

“It sold me a batch of legendary metals and a book, which are now all stored in my space ring. It identified itself as a Planar Merchant and its real name is Stalon.”

“Never heard of it.” Troy scratched his chin, feeling inexplicably unhappy, upset about the fact that Muria could see and interact with a being she was unable to perceive.

“Why can you see it, or rather, why can only you see it?” Troy didn’t have the slightest doubt about Muria’s account. Muria, who possessed the Titan Bloodline and Golden Dragon lineage, couldn’t possibly lie.

“It said that only those favored by destiny could see them—the Planar Merchants,” Muria stated with a slightly strange look on his face. Although he felt that his origins indeed won the favor of destiny, this premise rested on the fact that destiny truly existed. To be honest, Muria was reluctant to believe in such things.

“Favors of destiny?” Upon hearing Muria’s words, the little white cat rolled its eyes and scoffed disdainfully. In Elasia, there were once so-called gods of destiny. But weren’t they still defeated and killed by more powerful deities? Therefore, it didn’t believe in destiny at all.

“The world is so large, there are always some special existences, it’s not surprising.” After feeling troubled for a while, Troy decided not to dwell on it anymore. It knew that there were always mysteriously existences in the world that were beyond its comprehension, even after encountering them, it may not be aware of their existence.

Today was just such a day, only Troy happened to know about their existence through Muria.

“Troy.” Muria, who agreed with Troy’s viewpoint, looked at Auston and Klaeste amongst the dragons. “Shouldn’t we keep a lower profile? We’re just strolling around and we’ve already attracted the real nobles of this city.”

“Shallow humans.” Troy followed Muria’s gaze, and saw a group of nobles wearing luxurious attire appear around the Five-Colored Dragons. They surrounded the dragons raised by Muria and gave out various compliments from time to time.

“Auston, it’s time to go.” Seeing this, Muria also found it amusing. A group of non-human creatures like them were not only regarded as nobles by ordinary people.

But after attracting the local nobles, these human nobles seemed to regard them as the Great Nobles from even more powerful countries, and showed deferential attitudes.

“Muria, where have you been just now?” Hearing Muria’s voice, Auston, who had been surrounded by the noble ladies and had grown a little impatient, turned to look at Muria.

At this moment, it strangely felt that something was not right. It seemed to have completely ignored Muria’s presence. When the human nobles had first come to pester them, it hadn’t thought of seeking Muria’s help at all. It had only been dealing with them along with a group of Five-Colored Dragons that were a few years younger than it.

“Nothing?” Having already confirmed the special nature of the goblin Stalon through Troy, Muria did not say much. The Troy who was perched on his shoulder didn’t know what he had just done, and the same was surely true for this bunch. They, too, were unable to see that green-skinned goblin.

“Who are these?” With a restrained smile, Muria looked at the nobles surrounding his juvenile dragons. He intentionally asked Auston, feigning ignorance.

“The local nobles of this city.” Auston bluntly described without any intention to give a detailed introduction. He didn’t take these human nobles seriously at all, his tone was dismissive.

But even with this arrogant attitude, these human nobles still kept their smiles, seemingly taking it for granted. They showed no signs of anger and continued trying to engage in conversations with the dragons raised by Muria, with the intention of improving the relationships.

Compared with the commoners nearby, these human nobles, in their resplendent attire, acted elegantly, and carried themselves with an air of superiority typical of the ruling class.

But standing next to the young dragons and comparing with them, even the most naïve commoner could tell the overwhelming disparity between them.

The difference in clothing was a given. The robes tailored by the Cloud Giants were beyond comparison with the garments these human nobles wore.

The comparison in physical appearances was not even necessary. The dragons that had transformed into human forms all had nearly perfect features. The males were handsome and imposing, while the females were of exceptional beauty.

In terms of temperament, the dragons flat out defeated these human nobles. The naturally proud Five-Color Dragon Clan did not have to pretend in the presence of humans.

In fact, after observing them for a bit, Muria found out that although some were talking to these nobles, they didn’t actually take them seriously. They maintained an air of superiority and arrogance.

As for some others, they didn’t even spare a glance at these human nobles that approached them. Even when they occasionally cast a glance, it was filled with disdain. They regarded these human nobles as inconsequential.

But this extremely arrogant attitude had thoroughly confirmed their identity as Great Nobles in the hearts of these local nobles. How could they cultivate such an air or maintain such an attitude if they weren’t Great Nobles?

Therefore, even though these local nobles felt frustrated, they still tried their best to curry favor with these Five-Colored Dragons who had taken human forms. They were captivated by their appearances alone, enough to make these nobles fall in love and willingly play the part of a sycophant.

After all, if they did well in currying favor and gained favor from anyone among these “Great Nobles”, it would be a rise in their social status overnight.

So, what Muria observed was that each male dragon was surrounded by three to six noble ladies, and the female dragons exhibited the same pattern, with a varying number of male nobles around them.
