Ten huge iron boxes were thrown by Russell into the Shadowflame Volcano.

“Shadowflame, the ten Fallen Bipedal Flying Dragons you asked for, I have brought them back for you.” Russell opened the iron boxes one by one.

Inside the iron boxes were Fallen Bipedal Flying Dragons comfortably bound by Metal Magic Circles, all of them corroded flesh and reduced to bare bone frameworks. Of course, their eye sockets flickered with ghostly flames; they had not died.

“Hmm, you really did bring the corrupt Bipedal Flying Dragons!” The Shadowflame Dragon narrowed its eyes, looking utterly content.

Since it chose Russell to be its Knight.

Everything had become different, domains continuously expanded, Frost Star Beads stockpiled in batches, and now it could refine Fallen Bipedal Flying Dragons.

This comfortable life was an experience it never had during hundreds of years, unlike any previous cooperation with three Dragon Knights.

In the past, the entire kingdom needed it to uphold the situation, to patrol the borders, support battlefields, and wage war against Snow Giants.

Now, all it needed to do was to comfortably lie in the magma and wait for Russell to feed it.

“Choice is greater than effort!” In this moment, the Shadowflame Dragon deeply understood the phrase Russell had once said.

“Shadowflame, how will you refine them?” Russell, unaware the Shadowflame Dragon was reflecting privately, eagerly watched the Dragon, anticipating it to quickly create a dragon egg for him.

“Don’t rush, don’t rush.” The Shadowflame Dragon’s appearance was ferocious, but its smile was as kindly as a grandmother’s, “Throw them into the magma, and then, after three days, you can come and take away the dragon egg. Shadowflame will modify them nicely!”

“Good!”

Russell immediately grabbed a bound Bipedal Flying Dragon and threw it into the magma.

The Fallen Bipedal Flying Dragon that fell into the magma had its magic circle chains quickly melted by the lava. Then, ghostly flames flickered, and it vigorously flapped its bony wings, trying to struggle and fly out of the magma.

But soon.

The Shadowflame Dragon lifted its forelimb, overwhelming as Mount Tai, gently pressed the Bipedal Flying Dragon back into the magma, and all struggle ceased immediately.

Seeing this, Russell sighed almost imperceptibly, “Ah, Shadowflame, isn’t this a bit too cruel? These Bipedal Flying Dragons once sheltered many humans in the Warm Enclave… and now they’ve come to such an end.”

“Women’s mercy.” The Shadowflame Dragon squinted, “Russell, you must know that everything about you is good, but you lack a heart befitting of the strong. Your kindness will not help you become strong. The strong must make everything serve them!”

“But I have already become strong, Shadowflame.”

“Not enough; you can be stronger!” the Shadowflame Dragon said enticingly, “Both your and Ice Cream’s hearts aren’t strong enough, Russell, if you want to become stronger, perhaps you should lean towards Shadowflame!”

Russell also narrowed his eyes: “What do you mean?”

“Contract, come, contract immediately with Shadowflame, and Shadowflame will grant you all the help to become the strongest!”

Boom.

Russell casually threw another Fallen Bipedal Flying Dragon into the magma: “You’re too conceited, Shadowflame. Your previous failures may well stem from your conceit. And I am different; I deeply understand the importance of development.”

The Fallen Bipedal Flying Dragon struggled, and the Shadowflame Dragon lifted its forelimb again, effortlessly pressing the Bipedal Flying Dragon deeper into the magma.

Then, with a smile that was not quite a smile, it said, “Shadowflame has founded this kingdom, which developed rapidly for over four hundred years. Just a momentary setback, and you deny everything about Shadowflame?”

“King Ares lived prudently all his life, and that’s why the Scorching Torrent Kingdom grew stronger and stronger, while you are too rigid and easily broken. Without Ice Cream and me, ask yourself, Shadowflame, could you have had the chance to rise again?”

After speaking, Russell picked up another Fallen Bipedal Flying Dragon and threw it into the magma.

One man, one dragon, efficiently working together.

The Shadowflame Dragon’s eyebrows slightly furrowed: “Your and Ice Cream’s assistance was the deserved recompense exchanged for Shadowflame sheltering you!”

“Although it’s true, Ice Cream and I could switch countries and potentially develop well, you might not have another chance to rise. The Meltdown Dragon and the Ice Ridge Dragon are perfect examples.”

“You speak well, but when you encounter it, you encounter it. Shadowflame has risen, and nobody can stop it!” The Shadowflame Dragon extended its head.

Right in front of Russell.

The hot air blowing out of its nostrils hit Russell’s face, scattering his light golden hair in all directions.

Russell held his head high, locking eyes with the Shadowflame Dragon, not showing any signs of backing down, “The great era has already begun, Shadowflame. Temporary power is useless when Frost Star descends. You, and the entire Dragon Sleep Continent, need me!”

“Is that so?”

“What do you think!”

Whoosh, whoosh. In the Shadowflame Volcano, the aura emitted by the man and the dragon stirred the air currents wildly, creating strong winds.

After a while.

The Shadowflame Dragon finally withdrew its head, its arrogant aura gradually calming down, “You are good… Russell, Shadowflame looks forward to the arrival of you and the new era… Do not disappoint Shadowflame.”

“I cannot predict the future, but I can assure you, if you follow me, you will witness an unprecedented spectacle!” Russell’s lips curled slightly as he boasted—didn’t the Shadowflame Dragon like the domineering attitude of the Third Duke of Quentin? Then he would show it dominance!

Just showing off, as if nobody else could do it.

Splash!

The last Fallen Bipedal Flying Dragon was thrown into the magma, and Russell clapped his hands, “Shadowflame, I’ll be back in three days!”

Then, with a flash, he flew out of the Shadowflame Volcano.

The Shadowflame Dragon raised its head, staring at the empty sky above the volcano crater, and somehow, its heart seemed to hollow out as Russell left.

While it was dazed, the Bipedal Flying Dragon just thrown into the magma quickly struggled and flew out of the lava.

However, before it could spread its wings, the forelimb of the Shadowflame Dragon lifted and then slapped it back into the magma.

The gurgling Magic Power in dragon language echoed the grumbling of the Shadowflame Dragon, “Why run? If you escape, how will Shadowflame refine the dragon eggs, or do you want Shadowflame to break its promise in front of Russell? A knight does not fail a dragon, nor should a dragon fail a knight!”

…

Three days later.

Russell received a freshly made dragon egg, a man-high dark red egg, which shrank to the size of a marble as soon as it landed in Russell’s hands.

Back in the side hall of Red Castle, his older brother Roland was already waiting, “Your Highness, what do you need?”

“Brother, take this.” Russell handed the shrunken dragon egg to Roland.

“What is this?” Roland didn’t realize at first.

“A Bipedal Flying Dragon’s egg. I had the Shadowflame Dragon refine it for me,” Russell said calmly. “The ice railway is urgently needed; the country requires a Nickelsilver Dragon. So, I procured an egg, and after giving it thought, I decided you should be the one to incubate it.”

“Ah!” Roland’s head buzzed with sudden dizziness, “An egg? Incubate a Bipedal Flying Dragon?”

There was a time.

He had desperately licked up to Ros the Clay Dragon, only for Ros to choose their father, Baron Roman, dashing his hopes. He had interacted with each of the dozen Bipedal Flying Dragons in Red Castle, but none were compatible.

He had thought he’d have to wait decades to ride a dragon—after all, his father was in his prime.

He never expected such a pleasant surprise to come so quickly.

With trembling hands, he cradled the marble-sized dragon egg, his body shaking as he timidly asked, “Your Highness, are you… really entrusting me to incubate it?”

Russell patted Roland’s shoulder, “You are my brother, and of course, I look out for you… Ride the dragon, Roland!”
