Chapter 144: Confession
"Sss Gran gasped and felt that something was not right.
"You... Belch... I'm him... Belch... Forget it, you just ask. His tone was weak, cowering, as if the conspiracy had been exposed.
Azure asked calmly, "The dark green dragon just mentioned the Dragon Valley Lord, and thought that Blake was the Dragon Valley Lord... Where does this Dragon Valley refer to? ”
Gran knew that Azure knew that there was Red, the son of the Flame Dragon, and that Red was kidnapping other dragons to a place.
But Azure didn't know what Rhett's real name was, and he didn't know that the place where Rhett kidnapped the dragon was called Dragon Valley.
Maybe rhetoric can still help, but he feels that he can't hide it anymore, and sewing up with lies will only bring more costs to future lies.
He also wanted to maintain a friendly relationship with Teal.
Gran confessed, "I know the son of the Ancestor Yanlong, the Red Dragon Red, who is the red wyvern you once said abducted other dragons. I used to be the acting valley lord in the dragon valley he occupied, and I was actually dealing with troubles for Red. He directly told about his relationship with Red and Ryugu.
"Ever? Did you go your separate ways? ”
"No, it's because I had an accident and was forced to leave Ryugu." Gran began to tell the story to Azure, "Miss Azure knows that there are two sons of the Flame Dragon in that area, one of them is Red, and the other occupies a larger territory called Blazing Rock, which basically remains in the form of a lava dragon. ”
"I know it." Azure is more familiar with Blazing Rock than Red.
Gran continued, "Blazing Rock and Red are enemies, and they were even about to fight a few months ago, and I intervened as the acting valley lord of Dragon Valley to delay the duel. ”
Azure: "Sounds like you're pretty good, Blake." ”
Gran didn't know if Azure was praising herself, but still calmly spoke, "It's not that I'm good, it's the result of my efforts with the other members of Dragon Valley and my allies risking their lives. ”
"After this, the dragon who assisted with Blazing Rock thought I was in the way. When I was alone, it took me to a forest and attacked me with its power. I was on the verge of death after being attacked, and then I was picked up by you, Miss Blue. ”
In these days, Teal never asked why Gran was injured in his internal organs and his right flank was badly damaged.
Grant simply took the opportunity to tell Azure the puzzle together.
"That's what I'm hiding from you... Oh, by the way, my real name isn't Blake, it's Gran. ”
After telling Azure about these things, Gran's tone became very frank. "I'm really sorry, Miss Azure, you might think I'm a liar."
Azure remained silent, then smiled gently.
"Actually, I'm glad that you're willing to confess these things to me, which means that you trust me. I never thought you were a liar, it's normal for you to hide these things, little Blake, you haven't grown up yet, it's a good choice to be cautious. ”
Azure remembered that Gran's real name was not Black.
"Although your real name is Gran, I'm used to calling Blake, and it just so happens that you want to hide your real name, so I'll continue to call you Blake after that."
Gran said in a relaxed tone, "Miss Azure, if you like." ”
Teal began to ask a question she cared about, "Why don't you say you know Red Dragon Rhett because we aren't familiar enough?" ”
Gran confessed again, "No, it's me who feels like you hate Red, Miss Blue, so I don't dare to talk about it." ”
Azure sighed, "Red Dragon Red once tried to forcibly pull a dragon I knew into Dragon Valley by force, but that dragon escaped by chance. Although he hates Rhett, it's not to the point of killing you directly for helping him. I think we're good friends, and I don't want to do that to my friends. ”
Gran could feel the kindness conveyed by the blue.
Then Azure was worried about Gran again: "But do you really want to do things under Red Dragon Red?" His personality is temperamental. "Azure knows that Blazing Rock is this character, so it is natural to think that Red's fellow son of the Flame Dragon should also be this character.
Gran began to say good things about Red: "Actually, Red Dragon Red is not as difficult to get along with as you think. Although his method of adding new members to Ryugu is indeed overbearing, and he often does unreliable things, he actually takes good care of me. Red has saved my life several times, just like you, Miss Blue. ”
Azure thoughtfully: "Then I've changed my opinion of him a little." ”
"But why did Red Dragon Radter let you be the acting valley master?" Teal felt that Gran was not yet capable of taking over the position, originally she thought that Gran was a son inheriting his father's business, but after thinking about it carefully, she remembered that although Gran had a strange bloodline, he was indeed the son of the First Dragon, and it was impossible for the Ancestral Dragon to work under Red.
Red is great, but not to that point.
"Rhett trusted me to do it, and he felt that I was careful and careful, and that's it." Gran said calmly, he was still grateful for Red's willingness to trust him, and if it weren't for the fact that Ryugu was really too dangerous, he wouldn't have thought about running away every day.
"Be cautious and careful, can you become the acting valley master of Dragon Valley based on this alone?" Teal felt that Red was too hasty, that the position came with great danger, and she felt that Gran should not be able to bear it.
Gran realized that Azure regarded this acting valley lord as a position that needed to fight, and explained, "The acting valley lord sounds like a high status, but in fact, he only helps the other dragons in Dragon Valley with trivial matters, and I don't need to do the fighting, and I can't help it." ”
"I see." As soon as Gran explained that Azure could figure it out, Red was not very lacking in strength, and he lacked a dragon like Gran to help him fill the void.
Many dragons are usually rough and unscrupulous, this is because they can live well with brute force alone, and intelligence is treated as something that does not need to be developed.
But if Red wants to build an organization, the organization can't be full of this kind of dragons, otherwise the whole organization will collapse sooner or later.
Azure looked at Gran and said slowly, "I kind of understand how important you are to Red Dragon Red, little Blake, do you need me to take you back to Dragon Valley?" ”
Gran: "Ryugu doesn't need me that much after the crisis is resolved, and going back to Ryugu will be a danger for you and me. ”
Gran looked at the cave where the blue crystals were stored and said, "Actually, I didn't want you to come to this mountain forest at first, in fact, I wanted you to go to Dragon Valley, Miss Blue. But I hesitated, fearing that my companion would snatch the crystals you owned. ”
"Don't you trust them?"
Gran sighed, "Snatching the Blue Crystal is a bit in line with their usual reckless style, I'm not sure they'll be willing to resist the temptation of this crystal, so I can't let Miss Azure risk you to Dragon Valley." ”
