But everything was irrelevant now; compared to the safety of those two, these things didn't seem so important anymore.
Gris's expression began to struggle. On one hand, he wanted revenge, very much so, to the point that he sometimes dreamed of his mother Serika's dying screams.
One must know that dragons rarely dream... they almost never dream.
However, knowing that his future self would face failure, should he still go and throw his life away?
More importantly, Jona Velli had gone through immense hardships to finally cross back and save them. If he went to die in vain now, it would truly be unjustifiable.
"Don't worry, I won't be so foolish as to do something so meaningless."
Beside him, Friel lowered her gaze, her tone icy.
Meeting the gazes projected by the two dragons, she spoke flatly.
"I will wait until I become stronger and seek revenge against her personally.
Hehe~ I didn't expect that she would eventually personally kill her own child. It seems I don't need to show any mercy either."
Conflicts often occur between Chromatic Dragons, but they basically end with someone being heavily injured and then driven away; cases of directly killing one's own kin like this are extremely rare.
Although it happens occasionally, in the records of the inheritance, there are at most dozens of such cases, and those are all involving blood feuds.
Generally speaking, it's either enslavement or expulsion. Even when Chromatic Dragons face Metal Dragons, it's much the same, though Chromatic Dragons generally don't try to enslave Metal Dragons.
If they really did that, it could be summed up in three words—wait to die.
They would let you know what it means to bully one and have a whole group show up, and what true connections look like.
Do you really think their time spent traveling is just for eating, drinking, and playing, or looking at the scenery of the human world?
Hehe.
It's not just friends from other races; even the Metal Dragons on Dragon Island would not allow their compatriots to be bullied.
Sensing Friel's killing intent, Jona Velli suddenly thought of that historical projection—my 'Corner Guarding.'
Thinking of this, Jona Velli's expression became complex. To be honest, she still had a very good impression of Friel.
Although her personality was a bit strange and they had occasional friction, Jona Velli knew very well that this girl was actually decent at heart.
Besides, Friel was thinking of her even right before she died. Isn't that affection and sentiment enough?
Jona Velli thought to herself, and her heart suddenly became firm.
She was a dragon! Dragons never fear anything!
Why was she acting all bashful like a little woman now? She had to be brave!
Having made up her mind, Jona Velli suddenly leaned in close to Friel.
Friel was startled by Jona Velli's sudden movement and shrank her dragon head back a bit.
"Wh... what are you doing?"
Jona Velli's expression was serious, her crystal-blue dragon eyes staring intently into Friel's vertical pupils, her dragon mouth opening and closing.
"Friel, tell me honestly, do you have a secret crush on me?"
Facing Jona Velli's direct pitch without any wind-up, Friel's expression froze, and a flash of panic crossed her eyes, but then she immediately spoke stubbornly.
"Wh... what nonsense are you talking about? How could I possibly... Hmph! Don't be so narcissistic. Are you a pervert? We are both female dragons, how could I possibly like you..."
Friel's voice grew smaller and more incoherent as she spoke, unable to help but avert her gaze from Jona Velli's intense stare.
And just as she turned her dragon head away, a white dragon tail suddenly swept over, controlling Friel's dragon head and forcing her to look Jona Velli in the eye.
"You're lying! I can sense that the beating frequency of your dragon heart has increased to a suspicious degree.
Your cheeks, the skin hidden under your dragon scales, must be flushed with red by now, right?"
As she spoke, Jona Velli was also extremely nervous, her heart thumping incessantly.
After all, this was her first time confessing; it was too green, too clumsy, she had absolutely no experience.
Seeing Jona Velli's still-moist dragon eyes and hearing these words, a strange attribute awakened within Friel's heart, giving her an uncontrollable urge to bully her properly.
She raised a claw to brace against Jona Velli's dragon head, and her other claw grabbed Jona Velli's tail.
Having her tail grabbed directly, Jona Velli's whole body trembled. Seeing her like this, Friel had a playful look on her face.
"Hehe, even if that's the case, what can you do? What are you trying to express?
Jona Velli, you're right. I, the great Red Dragon Friel, have indeed taken a fancy to you.
Since you took the initiative to say it out loud, you must be prepared for the price of such a reckless action."
Seeing Friel like this, Jona Velli timidly looked away, but then realized something was wrong.
Wait, I was the one who confessed first. What's going on now? Am I being counter-attacked?
No, absolutely not. I must maintain the initiative.
Thinking this, Jona Velli refused to be outdone and became even more proactive and aggressive.
She forcibly broke free from Friel's restraint and instead extended her pink dragon tongue to lick Friel's cheek.
"A price? You can't intimidate me, Friel."
Friel froze on the spot. She didn't feel disgusted; instead, she subconsciously raised a claw to gently press on the spot Jona Velli had just licked.
It was still moist there, and icy cold, a bit... comfortable?
The beating of her dragon heart grew even stronger. With Jona Velli taking the initiative, Friel also emboldened herself.
She pulled the quirky Jona Velli into an embrace and, meeting her confused 'I want to see what you're trying to do' expression, kissed Jona Velli's dragon mouth.
At this moment, time seemed to stand still as the red dragon mouth and the white dragon mouth intertwined.
Jona Velli was full of astonishment, followed by panic.
She didn't expect that her simple basic attack would bait out Friel's ultimate move.
The white dragon body began to struggle subconsciously, but it was held firmly by Friel... Gris, who was off to the side, had already turned to stone.
Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
What is this situation? Is this right? They are two little female dragons? Is this allowed?
Why is there a bit of anticipation and excitement in my heart?
His black dragon eyes sparkled with excitement as he watched the two dragons grappling with each other.
But then, Gris slumped again. He missed Sasha a bit and wondered if she was doing well on Dragon Island... "Are you serious! Sister Sasha, you actually fell for a Little Black Dragon?"
A juvenile Brass Dragon heard Sasha's words, her eyes widening as she couldn't help but cry out in surprise.
Sasha was startled and hurriedly covered Ailar's dragon mouth with her tail, looking around nervously.
After finding that no dragons had noticed them, she breathed a heavy sigh of relief and then looked at Ailar with a look of reproach.
Ailar also raised her claws to cover her dragon mouth (though it was already covered) and carefully looked around. Seeing that no dragons had noticed, she also breathed a small sigh of relief.
Ailar met Sasha's vertical pupils and blinked, looking innocent and begging to pass by acting cute.
There was also a hint of blame in Sasha's eyes.
