Reincarnated as a Red Dragon, Discipline Makes Me Stronger! - Chapter 42

Chapter 42: Dragons Prefer Spices over Treasure?

“Mia, Mia.”

“Wake up.”

Max used his dragon claw to gently knock on Mia’s head.

After being poked by Max, Mia slowly came to her senses.

She opened her eyes, not knowing that there were still tears in the corner of her eyes. There was still a hint of confusion in the depths of her eyes.

“Brother, I had a nightmare.”

“I dreamed that mother left us and that we were targeted by humans. Brother, you were killed cruelly to protect me.”

Max patted Mia’s head helplessly.

“It’s okay, it’s just a nightmare.”

“Let’s not talk about these unpleasant topics. I’ll treat you to something delicious to drive away your foul mood.”

Mia tilted her head in confusion and asked Max, “Brother, are you going to treat me to camel meat?”

“After experiencing human meat, camel meat no longer seems as attractive to me.”

Max nodded.

Although he was still unwilling to admit it, the taste of human meat was really not something that camel meat could compare to.

If a camel was as tempting as a roasted chicken drumstick, then the meat of a strong human was more akin to a grand feast.

“I assure you, you’ve never experienced what I’m about to treat you to today.”

Max said confidently to Mia.

Although Mia did not know what meal Max was referring to, she could not help but drool upon hearing her brother’s confident tone.

After all, her brother had never lied to her before.

Without saying anything else, Mia followed Max and left the cave.

Fiercely flapping their wings, the two Red Dragons immediately took to the skies. To the random observer, it would seem as if they had vanished from the spot.

Strong winds besieged the siblings in the skies.

It seemed that it was not a good day to leave their cave.

Max looked at the dark clouds in the sky and could not help but frown slightly.

Nevertheless, he flapped the wings on his back again and broke through the dark clouds.

As expected, once they had broken through the dark clouds, the howling winds subsided, and the gloomy weather was nowhere to be seen.

Sunlight shone on the thick clouds, dyeing the clouds a shade of crimson. It was truly a beautiful sight to behold.

Mia, who was behind him, felt much better after seeing such a beautiful scene.

At this moment, Max turned his head to look at his sister, Mia with some surprise.

‘Isn’t she supposed to be weak physically?’

Although he was flying at a leisurely pace this time, Max was certain that Mia would find it difficult to catch up to him. Unless she gave it her all, she would undoubtedly fall behind.

This surprised Max.

“System, display Mia’s stats panel.”

“Ding dong.”

Soon, Mia’s stats panel appeared in front of Max.

[ True Name: Mia Agatha Afindore ]

[ Race: Red Dragon (Lawful Evil)]

[ Current Dragon Rank: Hatchling ]

[ Age: 1]

[ Maximum Lifespan: 10,000 (Ancient Dragon)]

[ Attack: 5 ( Normal Red Dragon Hatchling 15)]

[ Spell Strength: 277 (Normal Red Dragon Hatchling 25) ]

[ Defense: 7 (Normal Red Dragon Hatchling 10) ]

[ Speed: 14 + 2.77 (Normal Red Dragon Hatchling 13) ]

[ Magic: Lightning Arrow ]

[ Abilities: Bite, Magical Acceleration ]

[ Breath: Lightning ]

[ Remarks: She managed to obtain an acceleration ability just by sleeping. Are you certain that Mia is not the protagonist of this story? ]

‘Magical Acceleration?’

Max quickly found the description of the ability from his ancestor’s memories.

The Red Dragons who were weak but had high magic aptitude would use this ability to enhance their flight speed.

Of course, Red Dragons were capable of enhancing other aspects as well. There was also attack enhancement, defense enhancement, and so on.

So long as one’s Spell Strength increased, the enhancement they obtained would also increase.

For example, with her 277 Spell Strength, magical acceleration would provide her with a 1% boost in speed.

Thus, Mia gained a speed increase of 2.77.

Although it was not much, for a Red Dragon Hatchling, Mia was considered incredibly fast.

After all, the only reason Max was this fast was due to the adult Black Dragon abilities that he had absorbed.

Soon, Max had arrived at Deer Heart Village along with his sister.

From their lofty position in the air, Deer Heart Village looked no bigger than a fist.

Had it not been for Max’s physical prowess, the village would likely have gone unnoticed.

Max peered downwards and spotted the tribute that Deer Heart Village had prepared for Agatha — several camels.

“Brother, by delicacies that I’ve never experienced before, do you mean the camels?”

Mia revealed a puzzled look.

After all, dragons rarely lied, thus, Mia was trying to figure out her brother’s intentions.

Max did not intend to say anything to Mia. He directly dived towards the ground with Mia. In one swift motion, Max pierced the body of the camels with his razor sharp claws.

There were also a few of the camels who were scared to death by Max’s roar as he swooped down.

Mia was waiting for Max to roast the camels, but Max in no hurry.

“Don’t be anxious, my sister.”

“Delicious food requires tedious preparation.”

Then, he brought the camels to Deer Heart Village.

Although Max was only a Dragon Hatchling, Max was still a huge creature to the villagers.

He was in the center of Deer Heart Village, and thus, all eyes were on him.

The village chief walked forward shakily and spoke to Max with utmost respect.

“My Honorable Lord Dragon Hatchling, I would like to inquire the reason for your visit. Is there anything that you require us pious servants to do?”

Although the village chief spoke with utmost respect, Max could sense a hint of anger in his eyes.

It was as if he was complaining.

‘It has only been a few days since Agatha’s last visit. Why are you here again?’
