I, The Dragon Overlord - Chapter 543
Chapter 543 – Dragon’s Holy Maiden
A beautiful silver dragon soared above the sky with a beautiful form. Its body was long and slender, and its scales shone with a unique brilliance. If there was a dragon scholar here, they would be able to tell that this silver dragon was female. In accordance with its race and slender body shape, there would definitely be many male dragons who would try to court it.
The silver dragon was named Agnes, and she was one of the rare true devotees of the Dragon God. She believed in the Dragon God Louie Galakrond. As an adult dragon, she was extremely powerful and could fight against some legendary rank powerhouses. Any below legendary rank would be no match against her.
On the back of the silver dragon stood a young girl. Her delicate hands grasped a staff like a longsword and held it in front. The girl had a head of gold and black hair, wearing the traditional robes of the Church of the Dragon god. Her face was noble, elegant, holy, and beautiful. It was enough to make many ashamed of standing before her. Her holy temperament and noble aura were a deterrent that made people not dare look at her.
The robes of the Dragon God Church clergy tended to be very tight-fitting, especially for ladies. Their female figures were perfectly accentuated. It was said that these robes that brought out the sexiness of males and females were designed together by the Goddess of Love and Beauty and the God of Dragons. With the name the Goddess of Love and Beauty, these clothes could be said to be the best-looking clothes that were enough to attract all genders.
The tight-fitting robes would highlight a woman’s perfect body and emphasize their twin peaks and plump round waist. It was also lightweight making it good for adventuring.
But because of this, women would sometimes complain that because of its seductive mien, they would unwittingly draw the gazes of men.
This maiden riding on the back of the dragon was none other than the Dragon god Church’s Dragon Holy Maiden, Princess Aurora Abel Subila of the Subila Kingdom!
“Agnes, how much longer do we have before we arrive?”
Aurora stood on the back of the silver dragon. Her eyes slightly narrowed as they glistened from the spell she used to see afar.
“We’re almost there, Aurora! I have sensed the scent of that dragon, but how did it wake up? I can feel its rage.”
The inverted dragon pupils of the silver dragon also looked into the distance and spoke telepathically to the young girl on her back/
As a dragon, Agnes was not ashamed to have someone on her back because the young girl on her back had the qualifications as the Dragon Holy Maiden as well as the Dragon God’s child. As a devout believer in the Dragon God, Agnes was happy to be able to get along with Aurora.
“This hilly area to the south of the Subila Kingdom is already infested with many monsters, so I guess some adventurer party had inadvertently entered that dragon’s territory and woke it up.”
Aurora was able to easily guess what had transpired.
“Let’s hurry over there, Agnes! If those adventurers really dared to steal the dragon’s treasure, we’ll help the dragon together to kill those bold thieves. If it’s that dragon’s misunderstanding, let’s act as intermediaries to settle this matter.”
As the Dragon Holy Maiden of the Church of the Dragon God, Aurora’s thoughts were not human-centric. For example, when there was strife between humans and dragons, the Church of the Dragon God would support who was more reasonable rather than who is closer. Although the vast majority of people in the church were humans, if humans had truly offended a dragon, then the church would not be impartial and instead help the dragon.
……
“Why is this dragon running after me?!”
In this party of adventurers, a strong man wearing armor let out a strange shriek. He even took off his expensive armor in order so he could run faster.
“Because you are a believer of the God of War, so you have the scent of the God of War on you!”
The captain of the team shouted in a bad mood. Although he wanted everyone to stay away from this believer, he also knew that if he did, the hearts of this squad would be split up. Even if they were able to escape, it would be impossible to stay together anymore. Abandoning comrades was a big taboo among adventurers.
Although the relationship between the Dragon God and the God of War and the Goddess of Magic wasn’t good, their relationship had not yet reached a state of no compromise. Their relationship wasn’t like Shae and Selune whose believers would even kill each other as long as they met.
Although the three gods had been fighting on the surface, they had not issued any directives to the believers that they should kill each other when they met.
It’s well known that the God of War’s believers were mostly warriors, the Goddess of Magic’s believers were mostly mages, and the God of Dragons’ believers had priests with pretty high levels. If the believers united together they would be able to tide over many difficulties. In many adventurer parties, it was common to see these three kinds of believers working together.
Outside of adventurer believers, the normal believers of the three gods would have a worse relationship to the point that they would not see eye to eye even in death.
This was the relationship of humans who had faith, but a dragon’s faith was not complicated. Dragons had a tendency of having a narrow viewpoint. Regardless of how humans viewed faith since the Dragon God said that he hated the God of War and Goddess of Magic, then dragons would kill the humans who believed in these gods. Even if their faith was not particularly firm, they would still do things that could make their god happy.
“Sorry, every elven life is important. I can’t die here yet. I’m sorry, but I’ll have to leave for now.”
Among the fleeing crowd was a rarely-seen elf. After the Era of the Gods had fully arrived, the Goddess of Silver Moon was able to rise to one of the strongest gods. The elven country had loosened the regulations a bit, so in recent decades, beautiful elves could be seen wandering the continent.
Naturally, most elves still lived in the Dragon Kingdom or the Silver Moon Kingdom.
This female elf had trademark long ears. From a human perspective, this elf looked stunning.
As the elven woman apologized, her voice contained embarrassment, but this was normal. Towards the elf’s declaration of escaping, the rest of the squad did not say anything because this was the policy of the elves.
There were only a few elves in the world, and they had a low fertility rate. As a result, they tended to prize their lives more than most. The teachings of the Silver Moon Goddess even supported that elves should prioritize their lives in battle unless it was a major event that signaled the extinction of the entire race.
“Lady Latynina, you should stay away from here first. That crazy dragon shouldn’t chase you.”
“That’s right, Lady Latynina, you should leave for now. We’ll rendezvous at the marker after we lost this dragon.”
The males in the party began to persuade her to hurry up and run away first.
The Dragon God and the eleven main gods, Lady Silver Moon, were treated as husband and wife in the eyes of mortals on the main continent. The Queen of the Dragon Kingdom Her Majesty Alexia had served as a bridge for the two races, creating a good relationship between them. Elves might need some luck when facing evil dragons but the relatively good metal dragons would not take the initiative against the elves as long as they did not initiate the fight.
The men were urging the elf girl to run, but the women in the party were indignant and even vaguely jealous of the elf’s beauty. They certainly knew why these men were being assertive. There were some love stories of human males obtaining elven women’s favor, so these smelly men probably wanted that as well.
The elven girl named Latynina wanted to say thank you, but the next moment, she paled. Her eyesight allowed her to see another dragon appear in the sky ahead.
“Oh no, another dragon appeared!”
The elf who acted as the scout for the party shouted with an ugly expression.
“Another dragon? Could it be the bronze dragon’s mate?!”
The elf’s words made the entire party look ashen. If they were flanked by two powerful dragons, it would be impossible for them to run.
The Dragon God believer in the party quickly asked, “Lady Latynina, what kind of dragon is it?”
“It seems to be a silver dragon, but I can’t see too clearly.”
“A silver dragon? Great, it seems that we are saved. That should be the daughter of the Lord, the princess of the Subila Kingdom, Her Highness the Dragon Holy Maiden!”
The follower of the Dragon God shouted in pleasant surprise.
