Watching the way the two dragons interacted and picking up bits and pieces from their conversation, Sasha figured out their relationship.
"Pfft—"
A pleasant laugh rang out. The two dragons paused and turned to see Sasha giggling behind her hand.
"Uh... please, continue."
Jona Velli glanced at the fellow in her hand who was playing the victim and tossed him aside.
She brushed the dust off herself and sized Sasha up from head to toe.
"Escaped from Dragon Island? Not bad, you've got guts."
Sasha withdrew her gaze and nodded.
"I regret it, though."
Jona Velli walked over to a garden swing chair and sat down; Sasha did the same.
Ignoring why Sasha regretted it, she spoke again.
"Why come to White Crystal City? Was it to punish evil under the banner of justice?"
Sasha: "Something like that. I was just too young, acting rashly without understanding the cause and effect."
Jona Velli: "How long have you been here? How do you feel?"
Sasha thought for a moment.
"Over twenty years. It feels alright; the monsters here are quite... orderly."
"It's hard to imagine this is a City-state ruled by a Chromatic Dragon."
As she spoke, Sasha looked at Jona Velli, who waved her hand dismissively.
"I'm just a hands-off boss. I usually can't be bothered to manage those things."
"That's still very impressive."
Noticing Sasha staring at her, Jona Velli felt confused.
"Why do you keep staring at me? That's quite impolite."
Hearing this, Sasha quickly looked away.
"I'm sorry."
"There's nothing to apologize for."
After hesitating for a while, Sasha spoke cautiously.
"May I ask, are you a hybrid of a Silver Dragon and a White Dragon?"
Jona Velli spread her hands, her silver-White Dragon tail flicking in front of her.
"Isn't it obvious?"
"It's very... obvious. It might be presumptuous to say this, but why would a Silver Dragon take an interest in a White Dragon?"
Sasha's voice was very soft, as if she were afraid of offending Jona Velli's dignity.
To her surprise, Jona Velli didn't care at all.
"How should I know? Maybe it was mating season, and that Silver Dragon couldn't match the White Dragon's strength and got raped."
"Uh, haha, well..."
Jona Velli's words were crude, but the possibility was quite high.
"But if that happened, the White Dragon would be hunted down by the elders of Dragon Island. I've never heard of a Silver Dragon leading everyone to trouble a White Dragon because they were molested."
Jona Velli: "Maybe he was too embarrassed to say anything?"
Sasha: "Hahaha, you're very humorous."
"But listening to you, you don't seem to care about your father or mother?"
"Of course. Why should I care so much? The reason Chromatic Dragons are so free is because we aren't bound by these useless shackles. We do whatever we want."
Hearing Jona Velli's explanation and seeing her nonchalant expression, Sasha's understanding of Chromatic Dragons deepened slightly.
Cold and heartless, yet still possessing a touch of warmth.
"It's a pity you weren't born on Dragon Island. Otherwise, I think we could have been great playmates, like Big Brother Meserlis, Little Sister Ailar, Keluonisi..."
"Stop, stop, stop. Hold it right there. No need to show off the complex family ties between you Metal Dragons. I'm not very interested."
Jona Velli quickly cut her off. Sasha shrugged.
"Alright, but it's still a pity."
