Chapter 595: Chapter 591 Royal Duel Chapter 595: Chapter 591 Royal Duel Muria was genuinely surprised, he did not expect to encounter the Dragon Princess now, Muria thought she had long since left, after all, he had been in the Heavenly Realm for more than three months, such a long time, he could not understand why the Dragon Princess would still have a reason to stay in the Uranos Empire. It should be noted, the world’s flow of time in the Heavenly Realm is kept consistent with that of the Material World, there is no such thing as one day in heaven corresponds to a year on earth.

Moreover, he made a move against the Dragon Princess, intending to do something unpleasant to her. So Muria was very surprised, why this Dragon Princess still had the courage to appear before him, but no matter how surprised, the action of Muria’s hand did not slow down.

“Stop!” A slightly anxious chiding sound echoed as a Sapphire Dragon appeared in front of the Dragon Princess, trying to block Muria’s palm.

Muria ignored this, his giant hand continued to reach out, grabbing this jewel dragon, which was pocket-sized compared to him, into his hand. This was also his target.

With almost no resistance, the Sapphire Dragon with legendary power seemed to have accepted its fate, allowing Muria to capture it.

“Princess wishes to speak with you!” The captured Sapphire Dragon said hurriedly.

“Sure, but first give me back my six Five-Color Dragons!” Muria stretched out his hand, and the Wind Power surged with his palm, rolling toward Felicia, bundling her up and binding her in Muria’s palm.

“I can return the Five-Color Dragons to you, but you must promise me one condition!” Standing on Muria’s hand, Felicia had no trace of fear on her face. On the contrary, she showed excitement and eagerness. She raised her head and fearlessly looked up at Muria’s Dazzling Golden Eye.

“What condition?”

“Sign the Dragon Clan Covenant with me!” The Dragon Princess said her demand excitedly. This was the reason why she risked staying in the Uranos Empire, for the unique “dragon” that is Muria.

“You need to understand, these Five-Color Dragons were originally mine.” Muria looked down at the Dragon Princess, who he could easily crush to death with a fist. “You use my dragons to set terms with me, don’t you think that’s too much?”

“I just want to sign a covenant with you! I’m not making any unreasonable demands, sign a covenant with me, and you can also be one of the beneficiaries.” Dragon Princess Felicia looked at Muria with a matter-of-fact expression.

“I refuse.”

“Why?” The Dragon Princess questioned discontentedly, she was somewhat unable to understand Muria’s choice.

“I don’t see you as worthy, that’s the reason.” Muria spoke in a calm tone. Generally, a Dragon Clan Covenant can only be signed with being recognized by the dragon race. In times of danger, the covenant Ra can ask the giant dragon to help at a certain cost. Well, even if it’s a nominally life-and-death relationship, help needs to be paid for, the saying ‘clear accounts make good friends’ perfectly illustrates the relationship between the dragon race.

“You don’t acknowledge me?” Dragon Princess Felicia widened her blue diamond-like eyes, “do you know how many dragons beg me, wanting to sign a covenant with me?”

“That’s not my concern.” Muria said disdainfully, “You can gain the recognition of other giant dragons through treasures, but don’t think of getting my approval.”

“Who says I only gain the recognition of the dragon race by money?” Muria’s words seemed to touch the sore spot of the Dragon Princess, her face showed anger, resembling an enraged… hamster?! Showing teeth and claws, but she’s not a threat at all, at least in Muria’s eyes.

“Alright, enough talk, give me back my dragons.”

“I won’t.” The Dragon Princess refused somewhat angrily.

“Realize your current position.” Muria reminded.

“I see it, anyway, you won’t do anything to me.” The Dragon Princess looked at Muria without fear. If the Dragon Vein on Muria were of the Five-Color Dragon Clan or Gem Dragon Clan, she might be afraid of what Muria would do to her, but Muria happened to be a Golden Dragon, she who understood the habits of the dragon race was not afraid at all.

“…” Muria watched her, he wouldn’t cross certain lines, not because he was afraid, but because it wasn’t worth it. Messing with the Dragon Princess could lead to consequences that Muria couldn’t bear at his current stage. This uproar might prompt the Epic Titans to intervene on his behalf again. The Epics had come to Muria’s rescue twice already, a third appearance in such a short span of time would be too embarrassing for them.

“Of course, I won’t murder you, but giving you a bit of a lesson is a different matter, even your father can’t say anything against it.” Muria glared at the Dragon Princess, a smirk slowly forming on his face.

“What are you planning to do?” Seeing the look in Muria’s eyes, the Dragon Princess took a small step back, feeling a sense of unease. The man standing before her didn’t seem like your ordinary Golden Dragon.

“Boom!” A gust, small and seemingly insignificant, formed in front of Felicia’s forehead, where it touched down with a soft crack.

“Ouch! That’s hurts… It hurts…” Felicia, who was suddenly tapped on the head by Muria, sat on the palm of his hand, clutching her flushed forehead with tears welling up in her eyes. The sensation of pain was something she had never experienced in her pampered life.

“Transform back!” Muria uttered. How hard could it be to put this spoiled princess in her place?

“I won’t…Ah…”
“Boom!” Muria delivered another tap.

“I will keep doing this until you transform back.” Muria announced, his face devoid of any emotion.

“Boom!” “Ah…” “Boom!” “Ah…”
“You can’t make me surrender,” with a head full of lumps as collateral damage from Muria’s taps, the Dragon Princess declared stubbornly.

“Hmph!” Muria waved the Sapphire Ancient Dragon in front of Felicia, “Ever heard of skinning a dragon? The scales on this dragon here look incredibly valuable.”

“You…” Felicia looked at Muria with a fearful expression mirrored to that of someone who’s encountered a villain. Eventually, she caved, “Let Lin go, I’ll transform back.”

“Good girl!” Muria was pleased.

“Don’t think that this is over, you violated my dignity, I will challenge you to a royal duel!” The Dragon Princess stood stubbornly, looking at Muria, “If you win, you can request whatever you want. If you lose, you’ll make a dragon clan covenant with me. Do you dare to accept?”

“A duel?” Muria looked to the Dragon Princess, his lips turned upwards to a smile, “What makes you think you can challenge me to a duel?”

“Because I am a princess of the Orlando Empire!”

“That doesn’t change the fact that I can crush you with just a finger.” Muria retorted.

“I said it’s a royal duel, not the barbaric kind of duel you’re thinking of.” This time it was Princess Felicia looking down on Muria, “You don’t even know this? And you can’t crush me with just a finger.”

“Is this something to be proud of?” Muria looked at the somewhat smug Dragon Princess, his gaze shifted towards the seventh princess, Gladys, “Could you tell me what a royal duel is?”

“A royal duel is a duel that occurs among our ten Great Empires. When conflicts arise among the royals, these duels are arranged as a means to resolve them.” A surprised Gladys glanced at Felicia, before explaining to Muria,
“Initially, the royalty would lead their own legions to battle against each other. However, an emperor felt that this method of resolving disputes through internal friction was ineffective and proposed a new method after reaching out to the other nine emperors of the time.”
