Evil Dragon: The young dragon I picked up keeps planning on becoming an empress

```

"The bike is moving too fast; you can't slam down the brakes all at once. You need to pump them—squeeze a little and release, then squeeze again. Also, while you're squeezing the brakes, there's no need to stomp on the pedals...."

"The chain broke after that last forceful push you gave it...."

```

"Oh... It was my first time riding, so I didn't really understand, but if you let me ride again, I'm sure it won't happen."

"Forget it, I'll custom-make a bicycle that fits your height. We can't have you always tippy-toeing while riding."

"Yay, that sounds great."

Products from the Evil Dragon are guaranteed to be of high quality.

The bicycles made by humans, she'd break them in a day.

But one made by the Evil Dragon, she could ride for a lifetime without it breaking.

The young dragon carried the broken bicycle back to the mansion. Ingrid kept trying to take the broken bicycle from the young dragon's hands but was rejected. For her, carrying a bicycle now was as easy as playing.

Besides, she was no longer the Imperial Princess of the Farolan Empire; there was no reason for Ingrid to help her carry the bike. If this were in Farolan, she wouldn't even glance at the broken thing, just get up and leave.

Someone else would clean up after her.

Sigh...

Thinking about it, in this year and a bit living with the Evil Dragon, that unique air and temperament of a princess, even her personality... seemed to have vanished.

If she asked Ingrid to carry the bicycle for her, the Evil Dragon might even beat her up.

Within her capabilities, she should do her own work. She had been washing pots and pans for over a year; what's carrying a bicycle in comparison?

On Black Dragon Island, she would even help Turtle clean its turtle shell with that big brush.

Not only would she clean Turtle's shell, but she would also help Er Gouzi remove his shedding fur...

Were it known that the Princess of the Farolan Empire did such things, it's doubtful anyone would believe it.

Looks like we won't be returning to Black Dragon Island tonight, the Evil Dragon's true form is at the Dragon God Temple, and the Teleportation Gate is on his body.

Tonight, we'll sleep at the mansion.

The custom bicycle will have to wait until tomorrow; the materials for artifact forging are all on Black Dragon Island.

After carrying the bike into the mansion courtyard, the young dragon was about to head for a shower when Lance stopped her.

"You won't be sleeping here tonight."

"Eh? Then where will we sleep?"

"We'll sleep in the Black Dragon's Dragon Nest."

"Eh?! Sleep in the Dragon Nest?!"

Ingrid exclaimed in surprise this time; she knew that the Lord Viscount and the Black Dragon had a good relationship, but she didn't expect it to be so good that she could sleep in the Dragon's Nest.

Isn't it said that giant dragons have a strong sense of their territory? Only princesses, future wives, and children from the human world are allowed to stay on their territory?

Aren't other creatures that invade the Black Dragon's territory considered intruders, to be driven out or even killed by the giant dragon?

How can Lord Viscount, this man... possibly sleep in the Black Dragon's Dragon Nest?

Could it be... that Lord Viscount... truly is the Black Dragon's Knight?

"Lord Viscount, did you just say we'll sleep in the Black Dragon's Dragon Nest?"

"Mm-hmm, any issues?"

"Well... Lord Viscount, you sleeping in the Black Dragon's Dragon Nest, is the Black Dragon... okay with that?"

"He should be."

The young dragon looked dumbfounded at Lance. No, to blatantly go looking for the Black Dragon, to ask him for the Teleportation Gate, aren't you afraid of exposing your identity?

"I think... we should just sleep here tonight. Looking for the Black Dragon... isn't safe."

"It's very safe."

It didn't matter to him much if his identity was revealed or not. If someone could guess it and provide evidence, he wouldn't mind interacting with them as the Black Dragon.

If they couldn't guess, let them keep treating him as two separate beings.

The young dragon's identity... He had contemplated creating a puppet body for the young dragon until just a moment ago, when he saw the young dragon fall off the bicycle, and then he had an insight.

Why make it so complicated?

Simple is best.

The life he defined for himself as a dragon was to enjoy living, to take pleasure in raising offspring, not to confuse the Dragon Island Giant Dragons and other creatures he knew with multiple disguises.

Alright, he never really did that intentionally. Events in the human world or elsewhere related to him were evidence of his past good studies.

And from the beginning to the end, he always used the name Lance.

As for his appearance, he couldn't use his human form when acting as a Druid in the Orc Kingdom; naturally, he had to take the form of a Dragonborn.

In the human world, he used this face, but the most prominent identity he had was that of the Evil Dragon Sword Ancestor.

As for other identities, they weren't worth mentioning; he was just an ordinary Transcendent in the human world.

Lately, it seemed he was veering a bit from his original intention.

It's sort of fun.

But there's no need to wear oneself out just for the sake of playing.

Black Dragon Youngling...

Lance had it all figured out, just smear a layer of squid ink over the young dragon's body, done deal, as for the amethyst-colored vertical pupils... no need to disguise them.

As long as the Dragon Cub didn't admit it was an Amethyst Young Dragon, the other Giant Dragons couldn't do anything to it.

"Oh..."

The young dragon obediently followed Lance, Ingrid wanted to say something else, opened her mouth, but in the end said nothing; what she could think of, Lord Viscount had no reason not to consider.

Besides, Lord Viscount had been known to leave Saint Blue from time to time, perhaps... during the periods when Lord Viscount wasn't sleeping in Saint Blue, he was sleeping in the territory of Black Dragons.

Where was the territory of Black Dragons?

I'll ask when I have a chance.

Dragon God Temple, square.

Bronze Giant Dragon Melbourne transformed back into his dragon form, squatting across from Black Dragon with a deck of poker in his claw.

Nightmare Evil Dragon Koln also held a poker deck, and Black Dragon had one in his claw as well.

Of course, Lance knew what this was about because he had taught Bronze Giant Dragon Melbourne and Nightmare Evil Dragon Koln to play Dou Di Zhu.

With a long night ahead, and since they weren't planning on sleeping, it was better to play a bit of Dou Di Zhu and win some money from two rookie dragons.

Which was more fun, trash-talking or playing Dou Di Zhu?

After getting bored of Dou Di Zhu, he could also teach them both to play chess.

"556677, Nightmare Evil Dragon Koln, are you in?"

"Pass."

"88991010."

Bronze Giant Dragon Melbourne played a hand, Black Dragon looked up at Bronze Giant Dragon Melbourne, "Are you stupid or something? We're supposed to be taking on Nightmare Evil Dragon Koln here, why are you going against me?"

"I just don't like your face, it's not much money, I can afford to lose."

Black Dragon grinned, wanting to smack Bronze Giant Dragon Melbourne with a slap.

"Yo, playing cards?"

"Kid, don't bother us unless you need something, this is a dragon's game of poker, your human self doesn't need to join in on the excitement."

"I'm looking for Black Dragon."

"What do you want with me?"

"I want to sleep in your territory tonight, lend me the keys to your front gate."

Answering his own question, Black Dragon moved the teleportation gate into a Spatial Ring and tossed it to the human, Lance.

Lance received the teleportation gate and left with the Dragon Cub.

Seeing this, Nightmare Evil Dragon Koln's grey vertical pupils showed a hint of astonishment, so Black Dragon had such a good relationship with this filthy thing?

He even allowed this dirty thing to sleep in his territory, could it be this guy really signed a Dragon Knight contract with the dirty creature?

Bronze Giant Dragon Melbourne also looked at Black Dragon with a surprised gaze, then his eyes filled with disdain, a Pureblood Black Dragon raised in the Human World was indeed naive, they even dared to trust humans, creatures completely lack in honesty.

It seems that Black Dragon has been sweet-talked by human Lance into becoming "family."

"I have a short fuse, if you make me lose money, I'll beat you dead, you pig of a teammate."

"If you can't handle it, we don't have to play."

"Let's continue the game."

"A single three."

"I'll follow with a four." Nightmare Evil Dragon Koln was overjoyed, worried he wouldn't be able to play the smallest card in his claw, he didn't expect Bronze Giant Dragon to be so cooperative.

Keep it up, the more Black Dragon and Bronze Giant Dragon fought among themselves, the more gold and jewels he would win.

Black Dragon: "Two."

Melbourne: "Pass."

Koln: "Four Aces! I've got a bomb! Small joker, out... Pay up... Fast fast fast..."

If it wasn't for the fear of not being able to play the four, he would have bombed earlier.

Black Dragon and Melbourne each lost a silver coin.

"I'll shuffle."

It was time to show Melbourne and Koln some tricks.

He cheated at cards, shuffling just to make himself the landlord.

Win or lose, it was in his hands, not in those of a pig teammate.

"Black Dragon, when are you bringing your Dragon Cub to play in Saint Blue?"
