Chapter 367: Did the Holy Golden Giant Dragon Destroy Lance's Domain?!
Could my love story possibly be flawless?
Is this... this... this entertainment book written by Black Dragon Lance?
A Black Dragon who has never even been in love wrote a romance-themed entertainment book?
And the Valkyrie even recommended it to him, telling him to read it.
Could it be that Black Dragon Lance's book is brilliant?
Let me see just how brilliant it is.
Donnash couldn't help but laugh uproariously as he read, so engrossed that he bumped into a Divine Tree.
"Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter, how on earth did Little Black Dragon come up with such bizarre lines? If he ever falls in love, he won't confess to the girl he likes like this, will he?
I can't... I must read on. When I'm done, I have to give this book to Little Ilya and ask her if Little Black Dragon has ever said anything similar to her."
Putting the book away, Donnash extracted himself from the Divine Tree and used his Divine Power to repair it, then headed toward the Temple where he lived.
As for the matter of collecting the debt on behalf of Little Black Dragon from the Valkyrie, she had already given him a clear answer.
The Valkyrie admitted that she owed Lance money, but it was the human Lance she owed, not Black Dragon Lance.
From the Valkyrie's words, Donnash concluded that when Black Dragon Lance knew the Valkyrie, he had interacted with her as human Lance, not in his Black Dragon identity...
This left some wiggle room for the Valkyrie, after all, she wasn't wrong; she owed money to human Lance, not Black Dragon Lance.
Moreover, the Valkyrie did acknowledge she owed Lance money.
Well, next time he'll just have to interact with Little Black Dragon as the Heroic Spirit God-King.
Deities can't just descend at will, but with a legitimate reason, the Heroic Spirit God-King could visit the Human World, of course, not in his true form.
"Divine King Donnash, please wait, Divine King Donnash, please wait."
Hearing his name being called by a Deity, Donnash lingered in the void, looking back to see an Angel.
The Angel also served under the War God, ranking below the Valkyrie.
"What's up?"
"The War God has learned of Divine King Donnash's trip to the Human World and would like you to head to the War God Hall."
The War God wanted to see him?
No, how did the War God know he had just returned from the Human World?
It must be that he sensed Sophia had used the Summoning God Technique to bring him down from the Divine Realm.
Good, he had questions too.
This pure black thunder arc on the War God's armor that day... could it be related to Black Dragon?
A perfect occasion to ask.
Hmm... can't just ask outright. Wait for the War God to inquire about what Sophia summoned him for, then segue into how Little Black Dragon hurt him with his pure-blooded thunder...
Then casually inquire if the War God knows the origins of this pure black thunder.
Hmm hmm hmm...
Perfect!
Donnash turned around and followed the Angel toward the Domain where the War God resided.
...
Human World.
The Golden Giant Dragon Austin had broken his bones, not from the gravitational pressure in Black Dragon's Gravity Domain, but from being crushed by the Black Dragon as he fell from the sky.
His Dragon Bones were broken in dozens of places, his Dragon Claws were fractured, and even his Dragon Tail showed signs of splintering.
Sophia offered to treat him, but he refused. Crushed to the point of breaking bones by Black Dragon? Why should Sophia be the one to treat him?
He insisted on being treated by Black Dragon!
Couldn't be healed?
If not, he wasn't leaving.
The good news was that Black Dragon didn't refuse, deciding to shoulder the cost of his treatment.
The bad news was, Black Dragon didn't pay Sophia to treat him but instead took matters into his own hands.
His Dragon Claws were broken, and Black Dragon put a cast on his claws. His Dragon Tail had a slight fracture, so Black Dragon also put a cast on the tail.
The dozens of broken Dragon Bones in his body were treated by Black Dragon's Bone Setting Skill, slapping his Dragon Body haphazardly, causing him excruciating pain. He tortured Austin for a full two hours and put all the broken Dragon Bones back in place.
That damn Black Dragon was too stingy to use even one healing Scroll of Light on his body, insisting on fixing the broken bones with the Bone Setting Skill.
He checked with Sophia afterward, and she confirmed that Black Dragon had reconnected the broken Dragon Bones inside his body.
If Black Dragon was able to set the broken bones inside his body, why couldn't he fix his Dragon Claws and the slightly cracked Dragon Tail all at once?
What was the meaning of putting casts on him?
As if being crushed by Black Dragon into a broken state wasn't enough, there was one more thing that puzzled the Golden Giant Dragon Austin: Why hadn't Sophia and Hammond taken advantage of Black Dragon's exhaustion last night to beat him up?
He asked Hammond last night, who said that Black Dragon was cunning and full of tricks. Pretending to be exhausted, with his energy and blood depleted, might be an attempt to bait them into attacking him.
If they had fallen for it and attacked, there would be two possible outcomes.
One: they would make Black Dragon cry.
Two: the exhausted Black Dragon would rely on a secret technique to go berserk again, defeat them, and take the divine items they possessed.
Black Dragon had his sights set on the Book of Wisdom he held and also coveted the War God armor on Sophia.
If they had misjudged the situation, then the Book of Wisdom, which had just returned to his hands, could once again end up with Black Dragon.
Black Dragon had no intention of returning the Book of Wisdom when he had stolen it from the God of Judgement.
If not for the God of Judgement leveraging Black Dragon, the Book of Wisdom might have already become Black Dragon's divine item.
Besides, both he, the Golden Giant Dragon, and Thunder Giant Dragon Erinna were still suppressed within Black Dragon's Gravity Domain. With their strength, they might not be able to seriously injure Black Dragon.
