Chapter VI: Crisis
Complete the 'Divination Card' quest,
After drinking the 'Type I Dragon Gene Enhancement Potion', Ainz spent the next few days.
I also began to slowly see the power of the so-called 'Type I Dragon Gene Enhancement Elixir'.
In the same situation as Edith and Carol, he eats the Blue Dragon Mother Gladys and provides one meal a day.
Ainz began to grow in size, and Ainz was already much stronger than his younger siblings.
This time, under the power of the Type I Dragon Gene Enhancement Elixir, the size gap with the other two little blue dragons was finally greatly widened.
Ainz is now more than three meters long from head to tail, and his back-to-ground height is two meters, more than half the size of Edith and Carol.
This is a lot worse than when I took the 'Dragon Gene Enhancement Potion' a few days ago.
So much so that when his mother Gladys found out about the situation, she had to pay careful attention to Ainz for a while.
She wondered how this little guy could be so much bigger than the other two cubs, could it be that he had eaten too much and grew so well?
Gladys knew that the little guy was the strongest of his three cubs, and the one who was the best at predatoring.
Every time she brought back the food, this guy had to monopolize about half of it, sometimes more.
She won't say anything, though, because competition is everywhere.
However, after repeatedly observing his cub and finding nothing unusual, Gladys took his attention back.
For her, Ainz is growing fast, and it can only attract a trace of her attention.
After all, compared to the problems I am facing now, it is too insignificant.
......
"Whew..."
A thick breath ejected from the nostrils of the face.
Gladys spread his wings and flew high above the rocky wall of the desert beneath him.
Wide fleshy wings obscured the sky, and Gladys soared high in the sky of his own, looking far into the distance.
Under clear skies, Gladys could easily see a large forest at the eastern junction of his own desert.
It was the territory of a large group of elves called Tyr.
To the south, on the border with the desert, the mountains are home to two bronze dragons, both in their youth.
Although Gladys, like the other color dragons, has never liked the opposing metal dragons, nor the copper dragons of the neighbors.
If there was only one of them, Gladys would not hesitate to expel them.
But there were many people on the other side, and Gladys tried it once, and when he knew that he couldn't do it, he didn't have the idea.
Anyway, her desert is big enough, as long as the other party doesn't mess with her, Gladys won't pester the other party, although she is not afraid of the two copper dragons.
Looking to the north again, the north of this desert is a vast and boundless desert with long yellow sand.
Gladys looked at the endless stretch of yellow sand, and couldn't help but feel a heartfelt joy in his heart, he liked the sand.
But in the west, at the junction of this desert, in that harsh highland area.
It turned out to be just a desolate plateau without an owner, but recently it seems that a red dragon from the same camp has come.
Gladys wasn't sure, though, that she had only seen the flash of red as she soared through the sky a few days ago, like the red dragon of the five-colored dragons.
To be on the safe side, Gladys didn't go as curious as a baby.
Instead, he is constantly observing on his own turf.
It is not for nothing that the red dragon, as the most powerful dragon species in the five-colored dragon camp, is called the most powerful dragon species.
Because the red dragon is a little stronger than the average true dragon of the same level in hand-to-hand combat with other real dragons in hand-to-hand combat, or in terms of magic attainments.
Of course, this statement is not absolute.
Because every true dragon belongs to a highly intelligent life, of course, the white dragon is excluded.
Combat experience and combat skills are the key to winning or losing when real dragons fight each other.
So, for Gladys.
As long as the desolate plateau at the junction of the West is not an adult red dragon, with her ability and combat experience, she will not be afraid.
Otherwise, Gladys's mother would not have given birth to five young dragons, and Gladys, who was ranked third, would have finally inherited this territory that originally belonged to his mother.
She fought them one by one, beating all four siblings away.
was able to inherit the territory of his accidentally missing mother, and eventually occupied the territory until now.
So, Gladys is not afraid of fighting.
Even if the opponent is a young red dragon of the same level.
'Bang! ’
Gladys's body landed on the tallest and largest stone of the stone wall, looking solemnly at the west.
She was still thinking.
If the opponent is an adult red dragon, then there is no need to fight, and Gladys can only prepare to retreat early.
Because against an adult red dragon, Gladys, who is now in his mid-youth, has no chance of winning at all.
But from what she knew about the greedy and selfish Red Dragons, who were greedy and cruel to their treasures, they were almost all unfavorable ones.
Such a desolate plateau would certainly not attract the desire of an adult red dragon to occupy it.
"Unless... Unless the other party is just a young red dragon, perhaps just reaching the standard of youth, he will hurriedly find a place to occupy the territory. ”
"Otherwise, if it is really an adult red dragon, not only will my territory here not be protected, but even the territory of the two young red bronze dragons in the south will not be able to defend it!"
"Not only can't you hold it, but you're also in danger of death!"
"Those chaotic and evil red dragons only care about their own selfishness and cruel desires/desires, but they don't care about the lives of other dragons, even the colored dragons of the same camp will not be taken seriously by them."
Gladys looked at the West silently, thinking secretly.
......
Nest/**
Edith is messing around with Carol.
Ainz was lying on the other side, constantly exploring the movement of the 'fate card' in his body.
It's been almost a month since I came into this world.
The 'Destiny Card' in Ainz didn't move anymore except for the first time he drew an R-type card and then released a 'Wrath of the Drake' quest.
And after tasting the sweetness of the ability of the task reward 'Type I Dragon Gene Enhancement Elixir', Anz naturally remembered the mission.
It's just that no matter how Anz tries to urge the 'fate card' floating in the sea of consciousness, the other party is silent.
It's just quietly emitting a faint light of all colors, floating in the sea of consciousness.
Obviously, the time for cooldown has not yet come.
Ainz could only comfort himself like this.
