Therefore, whether his own sister could be promoted was one of the major bets in the life of Nifadora the Green Dragon, and one of his few choices.
"By the way, how long will it take to reach the Evil Scale Fortress?" David looked at Yolanda and asked.
"Considering the long journey and not ruling out unexpected events, it should take about six weeks to arrive," Yolanda informed him truthfully.
But at the same time, upon hearing this, she was startled. Did he mean he wasn't planning to continue his studies in Barto Hell? Then again, considering his horrifying 'learn at a glance' ability at Dewensen Academy... it seemed there really wasn't any need to waste time, was there? Finding a few powerful dragons to fight would get him everything... The only limitation now seemed to be David's age and body. Perhaps if he underwent another long slumber and directly entered his juvenile stage, it would be a greater improvement than anything else. Thinking of this, even Yolanda, who came from a privileged background, couldn't help but feel a twinge of envy and jealousy.
"More than a month, huh? That is quite far," David nodded.
Even when traveling between two Continents, they could arrive in a week of non-stop flying, whereas this journey alone would take one to two months, and there might be more than one Teleportation Gate along the way.
But this was the vastness of an outer plane.
It was said that in the even more distant Abyssal Depths, each layer was so expansive that a Dragon, flying non-stop from a Hatchling to an Ancient Dragon, might not even see its edge.
When David and his father were ready to depart with Hiatt, Barbarian Rosinde, Red Dragon Lizrite, White Dragon Mofei, Green Dragon Shadila, the Black Dragon siblings Alfonse and Viola, and David's own sister Tania—all of whom had received the message and hastened back—a disagreement occurred.
Pointing at Tania, who was perched on David's head, Dragon Dad Attilicia asked, "Wait, are you planning to take your sister with you? That's Barto Hell! She's a Silver Dragon," he said, conveniently forgetting he was one himself.
David, however, was prepared. With a flick of his tail, he gestured at Tania.
In the next moment, to the disbelief of all the dragons, Tania, who had been in the form of a High Elf, transformed into a young Red Dragon whose size was comparable to David. She launched herself from David's back, soared into the air, and excitedly declared to their Dragon Dad, Attilicia, "Yay! Look, Dad, Tania's turned into a Red Dragon!"
She looked like a once prim and proper young lady who, under her brother's instigation, had dyed her hair, gotten her nails done, and covered herself in temporary tattoos. This rebellious, delinquent image made Attilicia, who had lived by the rules all his life, nearly gasp for breath.
The next second, however, seeing David's tail point towards him, Attilicia quickly shielded himself with his claws, terrified his son would turn him into a repulsive Red Dragon too. "No, no, no, I don't need to change!" He still couldn't quite accept the idea.
David, however, said in a half-threatening, half-intimidating tone, "Well, you'd better think carefully, Dad. We're heading to Barto Hell, a place teeming with Devils and Evil Dragons."
"Even Mom, with her good disposition, couldn't resist roughing you up. If you go there looking like you do now..."
"Dad, you really better think this through." ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novｅlfire.net
With that, David put on the leer of a lecherous Evil Dragon, licked his lips, and suggestively appraised his alluring Dragon Dad from head to toe. Then, he turned and flew towards the Dewensen Valley, the territory of their ancestor Christoph.
"HISS..." Attilicia clenched under David's lewd gaze.
Right... why hadn't he thought of that?
The thought of possibly facing harassment or even assault from female dragons, or even male dragons, in Barto Hell immediately brought on a sudden, desperate urge to urinate. He hastily followed David, shouting, "Wait! Hold on! I think I need a disguise! Son!!!"
David, leading the nascent form of the dragon legion under his command, passed through the Ultra Long-Distance Teleportation Gate constructed in Christoph's territory... and arrived in Barto Hell.
