When Olya walked out of Sawin's cave and appeared in front of the crowd, Sahain's parents had completely different looks on their faces. Sawan's mother had a mouth full of disbelief, while Savin's father had an unpredictable look written on his face.

Sawin was proud, he could bring such a big live mermaid into the dragon's nest, probably no one had ever done it before, and he Sawin could be regarded as the first person in the dragon clan in this regard. At the same time, Sawan was glad that his brother Duil was not here, otherwise it would have been difficult to predict what would have turned out.

"Alright, let's all go to the study. Kaysved's words broke the embarrassment of the crowd, and everyone followed him into the study.

After everyone was seated, Kaysved looked around and said, "I agreed to the meeting. ”

As soon as these words came out, a big stone in Savin's heart suddenly fell to the ground, I didn't expect his father to be so reasonable, which really subverted Savin's previous impression of his father. Olya also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, she was tossed to death or alive, and finally had a good result. But Savan's mother was at a loss, not knowing what her husband had promised.

Kaysved turned to his dazed wife and said, "I'll tell you more about it later." ”

"But I have a few conditions. Kaysved changed his words and said to Olya, "First of all, it's up to me to decide when and where we meet. Secondly, you are only allowed to come alone when you are in the meeting. If you do not agree, then the agreement to meet will be null and void, and you will be asked to convey the message to your king on my behalf. ”

Olya nodded and said, "I understand, I will definitely convey it to His Majesty the King." But what shall His Majesty's reply tell you?"

Kaysved had already thought of a plan, and he replied, "I have heard that Sawan has invited your princess to the ball, and your princess will bring your king's reply." If your king agrees to my terms, I will ask you princesses to bring back the time and place of the meeting, do you think that is okay?"

Olya listened to Kaysved's words, and went through it again in her heart, feeling that this method was really good, so she nodded, and agreed to Kaysved's proposal.

Kaysved instructed Sawan to send Olya away quietly, leaving his wife alone, and recounting the whole story. After listening to her husband's story, Renicia couldn't help but feel worried, the mermaid king's request did not know what the purpose behind it was, and if this matter was not handled well, it would probably affect her husband's status in the dragon clan.

Renicia told her husband about her worries, but Kaysved shook her head and said, "Actually, I'm not worried about this, I suspect that the merfolk and the mermaids are behind something, maybe the dragons are going to usher in a disaster." ”

Somewhat puzzled, Renicia asked, "If the merfolk have ulterior motives, why would their king ask for a private meeting?"

Kaysved said, "If my guess is correct, the Mermaid King is likely to have his own troubles, and don't forget, there is an Emperor above the Mermaid King's head." ”

"You mean this is the whole mermaid clan and the mermaid clan......" Renicia couldn't help but gasp when she said this, she also realized how serious the problem might be this time, if the entire mermaid clan and the mermaid dragon clan joined forces to deal with the dragon clan, then the dragon clan would not only face trouble, it was likely to be a catastrophe.

"Alas, it seems that the dragons must leave a way back for themselves. Kaysved sighed.

For a long time, Kaysved had been a neutral member of the Parliament, trying to reconcile the contradictions between the various sides so that the dragons could remain united at all times. It's not easy to do this, the dragons have always been above the top, and no one is willing to obey each other, and it's a miracle that they can maintain no division until now, of course, there are environmental reasons, but more importantly, it is the unremitting efforts of the higher-ups, such as Kaysved.

Now Kaysved had a hunch that the dragons might encounter an unprecedented crisis, and perhaps finding a way back for the dragons was the safest way. As soon as he thought of this, he couldn't help but think of the idea of "returnees". The so-called "returnees" are a small group of dragons who have been advocating that dragons should return to land and return to the land world where their ancestors once lived, but this idea has few supporters among the dragons who are content with the status quo. The main leader of the "Returnees" was none other than Sereshi's father, Savan's teacher, O'Hiris.

In the past, Kaysved did not agree with O'Hiris's claim, but now he vaguely sensed that a crisis was coming, and perhaps returning to the mainland was indeed an option worth considering. Kaysved didn't dare to think about it any longer, because he suddenly realized that returning to the mainland was a tempting idea, and everything was still undecided, and he didn't want to let himself be swayed by a certain idea, otherwise he would not be able to make an objective evaluation.

Kaisved patted his wife on the shoulder and said, "You don't have to think too much, everything is unknown now, wait until I meet the mermaid king." ”

Renicia nodded and said, "Alas, that's the only way to go. She said this, but she immediately thought of another troublesome matter, Sawin was going to bring a mermaid princess to the ball, and she didn't know what kind of discussion it would cause at that time, and Renicia's mood sank again when she thought of this.

However, no matter what the mood of Renicia's family is, it still has to be held, and it is finally the day of the coming-of-age ceremony. The coming-of-age ceremony is a major event within the dragon family, and such ceremonies are not held every year, but often once every year. Dragons have a long lifespan, so the growth process is also very long, and to hold a coming-of-age ceremony, you have to wait until you have gathered enough of them to hold it, which is often more than ten years or even decades. However, this coming-of-age ceremony did not make the dragon clan wait too long, it was only seven or eight years from the last coming-of-age ceremony, and this time the dragons who participated in the coming-of-age ceremony also set a record in terms of the number of dragons, and the dragons are ushering in an era of prosperity that is rare in history.

The rites of passage of the dragon were supposed to be complicated according to ancient texts, but since the move to the sea, such rituals have been much simplified, and one of the most important is to officially record the name of the person participating in the ritual into the dragon's family tree, and from then on he or she will be a real dragon.

However, the next part is what everyone is really interested in, and that is the first time to take on a human form. Although transfiguration is not directly related to rituals, the members of the dragon clan consciously abide by this tradition and never transform into a human form without going through the adult form.

When the formal ceremony was completed, there was a huge cheer from the audience, hundreds of dragons shouted in unison, and its power was enough to shake the mountains, if it were not for the place where the ceremony was held in a huge cavern in the depths of the dragon's lair, this cheer alone could directly scare countless sea creatures to death.

Soon it was the moment of greatest anticipation, as the young dragons who had just experienced their adult form hid in the surrounding caverns with their pre-prepared clothes in their mouths, and they would complete their first transformation in an intimate space. Everyone has learned the method of transmogrification for a long time, and as long as it is a dragon with thorns on its back, it can easily do it.

In a relatively small cavern, Sawin was preparing for his first transformation, following the methods his parents had taught him.

"Concentrate and start when your mind is completely calm, otherwise you will become an ugly person. "My mother had told me again and again.

And the elder brother Duyle said: "When you transfigulate, you must tense your muscles, so that you can become tall and strong." ”

But the father said, "The human form you are about to transform depends on your heart, and only those who are of high spirit can have a pleasing appearance." ”

Savan tried to calm himself down, the first transformation is very important, it will determine the appearance of people in the rest of their lives, although the dragon can change freely in the original form and human form at any time, but the appearance will not change, what is the first time, what will be like in the future, so the first time is extremely important. Sawin had been looking forward to this moment for a long time, and he didn't want to be reckless in turning himself into a slewd person, so he decided to listen carefully to his mother's advice, and make sure not to make a mistake in his busyness and make a look that he regretted.

Just as Sawin was trying to calm himself and concentrate, there were already loud cheers outside, and it seemed that the impatient guy had completed the transformation, and Savin's mood that had just calmed down was suddenly disrupted again.

"Don't worry, don't worry, it's ...... that there's still more time" Savan said silently in his heart: "The best is the best, let those impatient guys become ugly." ”

Outside the cheers rang out one after another, and the newly grown dragon appeared in front of the public for the first time in human form, and every time it appeared, there would be a thunderous cheer.

As the cheers became less and less, Sawan felt himself finally calm, his mind more focused than ever, and everything around him could no longer affect him.

Sawan knew it was time.

"Change!" said Sawan softly.

As soon as the words fell, the time in front of him suddenly became distorted, and his body suddenly became soft, as if it was about to be melted. Sawin couldn't help but feel a little scared, afraid that he would disappear from this world at once, and for a moment he couldn't even feel the presence of his own body. Thankfully, the whole process of change was only a short moment, and soon he regained consciousness and everything became familiar again.

When the warped world in front of him finally returned to normal, Sawan was amazed to find that the cavern he was in had become so tall and wide......
