Chapter 161: Chapter 160 Pain

Chapter 161 -160 Pain

“Gah.” The Little Dream Dragon hovered disdainfully in front of the Blue Crystal Dragon Medikalun’s Magic Light silhouette.

Russell, however, meticulously checked the condition of the Blue Crystal Dragon.

Bright red flame patterns covered its entire body, meticulously outlining every detail of the Blue Crystal Dragon, including scales, claws, dragon horns, and even pupils, although there was no sparkle of life.

There was just one area, on the hind part of its thigh, where the flame seemed to have been extinguished, revealing a black spot.

The black spot was small, especially in comparison to the seven to eight-meter-long body of the Blue Crystal Dragon. It was just a tiny black spot, but its presence severely restricted the flame pattern at the thigh, diminishing the mystique.

Furthermore, upon closer inspection, Russell found another kind of light within the black spot, concealed by it and too obscured to identify.

“It seems to be… a deep blue light, huh? This light seems similar to that of the Snow Demon!” Russell realized.

He now suspected that Lord Medikalun might have been gravely injured in the past, such that the power of the Snow Demon still lingered deep in the muscle of his thigh, firmly suppressing Lord Medikalun’s own power, causing a gap in the flame pattern.

“From this perspective, Lord Medikalun must be in pain every day, right?” Russell thought.

However, he did not let the Little Dream Dragon act recklessly. For one thing, the Little Dream Dragon did not like food laced with magic power, such as half-Ghost Beast; and for another, should the Little Dream Dragon make any rash moves, it might attract the attention of the Bipedal Flying Dragon.

“Still, tomorrow I can ask Cousin Mel about what kind of injury Lord Medikalun suffered from and why it hasn’t healed after such a long time.”

“Gah.” The Little Dream Dragon was getting impatient.

Russell laughed, “All right, let’s go for a stroll!”

This time, Russell was not in search of any treasures. Tributary River Mouth was not his territory, and everything within it belonged to Count Merlin. He had already received the generous gift of the Tobacco Sprite Niko from Count Merlin and did not expect more.

Without the goal of treasure-hunting, they quickly flew away from Gloomy Dreamland, wandering around and even visiting the Da Wan River.

The Clearwater River and the Turbid River met at the Da Wan River, where the plains had carved out a broad channel vast as a lake.

Countless fish species dwelled and multiplied here, and even Fantasy Beasts born from fish had emerged.

One man, one dragon, one butterfly, one flower, they flew over the riverbed of the Da Wan River, encountering many strange Magic Lights, all small points of light, unclear in origins—possibly clam or Primordial Beast fish.

But these Magic light spots were fleeting, and even if Russell wanted to mark them, he found it impossible to do so.

Eventually.

The Little Dream Dragon stood at the bottom of the river and yawned, “Gah…”

“Alright, let’s part here, see you tomorrow night.” Russell waved his hand, and all fell into darkness again.

The next day, when Mel came to take Russell out, Russell didn’t beat around the bush and directly expressed his desire to see the dragon.

“Look at dragons, no problem!” Mel laughed, “I’ve heard Roland say that Mr. Ross pays no attention to you; wouldn’t it be better if you won over Lord Medikalun instead? If you two are compatible, you could even become my vassal.”

“Riding dragons is not that simple,” Russell smiled.

As for becoming vassal to Roland or Mel, he had not even considered it. Being a man who owned a Great Dragon, he was capable of founding his own country and had no intention of considering servitude to anyone else.

The two walked towards the Arrow Tower, followed by servants carrying a whole roasted sheep, which was a gift for Lord Medikalun.

They quickly climbed to the top of the Arrow Tower.

Lord Medikalun was sitting there, and upon seeing Mel and Russell arrive, it rolled its eyes but showed little reaction.

Even as they hoisted the roasted sheep up, it remained indifferent.

“Lord Medikalun, Russell and I have come to see you,” Mel said with a smile, “Look, we’ve brought you something delicious to eat.”

Snort.

Lord Medikalun snorted out two faint flames from his nostrils, then gently stretched his neck, opened his gaping maw, and snatched up the roasted whole sheep. Tilting his head back, he swallowed it in just a couple of bites, then, licking his lips, he settled back down into a crouching position.

To him, a whole roasted sheep was just a snack.

Mel reached out to touch Lord Medikalun’s lower leg, and Russell took the opportunity to move to the top of the arrow tower’s slope, which was just the right spot to reach Lord Medikalun’s thigh.

But he didn’t reach out his hand immediately. Instead, he asked, “May I touch you, Lord Medikalun?”

The intelligence of a bipedal flying dragon was not much less than that of a human.

Lord Medikalun narrowed his eyes to look at Russell and snorted out two faint flames, then dropped his head lower.

Mel nodded and said, “You can touch him now.”

Only then did Russell extend his hand and gently touched the spot he had observed last night in the Gloomy Dreamland.

As he carefully examined it, he could see a faint scar on the back of the thigh.

The metabolism of a bipedal flying dragon was very fast. Generally, no matter how severe the injury, as long as it wasn’t fatal, it would heal quickly.

“There’s a scar here, Mel. Has Lord Medikalun ever been injured?” Russell asked.

“Just a skin wound, a few months ago, while escorting my mother to Gravel Domain, Lord Medikalun went out hunting Snow Demons by himself and scraped his skin… Uh, it’s been quite some days now, how come the scar hasn’t faded yet?”

Mel also noticed the faint scar and joked, “Lord Medikalun, when did your healing power become so weak?”

Lord Medikalun bared his teeth.

Russell immediately voiced the thoughts he had carefully considered, “Mel, I feel that there’s a look of pain in Lord Medikalun’s eyes. Could it be that the wound is deep, or has the power of the Snow Demon lingered in the wound without fading?”

“How could that be, it’s just a skin wound,” Mel said dismissively.

Nevertheless, Russell turned to Lord Medikalun and asked, “If you are in pain, Lord Medikalun, just tell me. Perhaps I can help you.”

“You’re trying a little too hard to please,” Mel commented, thinking that Russell was just being solicitous to ingratiate himself with the Blue Crystal Dragon, “A dragon won’t approve of you just because of your tender gestures.”

Lord Medikalun turned his head back and looked at Russell.

As if scrutinizing him.

Then, under Mel’s astonished gaze, he slowly nodded at Russell, clearly conveying a look of pain in his eyes.

“This…” Mel was instantly astounded.

He had never seen such a side of the powerful and resilient bipedal flying dragon, revealing such a tormented look in its eyes. Even the corners of its mouth, filled with sharp teeth, began to twitch, an indicator of extreme pain.

“Mel, it seems that Lord Medikalun’s injury is more severe than I imagined. I think it must be the power of the Snow Demon, tormenting him from within his body,” Russell said, looking into Mel’s eyes, “The wound needs to be reopened to extract the power of the Snow Demon.”

Mel was completely flustered and immediately nodded, “Okay, I’ll go inform my grandfather at once!”

Russell nodded, “Go ahead, I’ll stay here with Lord Medikalun.”

After Mel climbed down the arrow tower, Russell whispered to Lord Medikalun, “First, let my grandfather take a look at you. If he can heal you, then let him do it, since he’s a Flying Dragon Knight. If my grandfather can’t heal you, I will make sure to cure you!”

Snort.

Lord Medikalun lowered his head and snorted loudly at Russell.
