Chapter 160: Regarding Chapter 128, Legendary Golden Dragon, the Dragon reveals its holiness.
"So, Noah, have you found any female dragon you fancy?"
When Noah left the estate and returned to Mage City, unsurprisingly, he was stopped by his adoptive mother. After hearing such an out-of-the-blue question, the Golden Dragon could only helplessly remind her,
"Auntie, I’m still just a juvenile dragon."
"What’s wrong with being a juvenile dragon? Can’t juvenile dragons have offspring? When I took you from your mother, I read quite a few books on dragon rearing, so don’t try to fool me, I know just as much as you do."
"Only the colorful dragons do that. We metallic dragons, especially we Golden Dragons, cannot breed so early, it’s very bad for the offspring."
"Can’t breed, but you can date. Back in the day, Casius and I got to know each other when we weren’t even adults, and then he started courting me."
Selena said nonchalantly,
"I think that little female dragon who just stopped you was quite nice; she even approached you for a chat."
"She just asked about the admission requirements for the academy."
Noah explained.
"As an opposite sex, she approached you actively and found non-awkward topics to close the gap, isn’t that a usual tactic? Didn’t you see how happy she was smiling at you?"
"Auntie, you’re overthinking it. She’s a teenage dragon, a whole age group ahead of me."
The Golden Dragon felt exasperated.
"That’s nonsense, who are you trying to fool? If not for your Bloodline Ancestor causing your growth period to extend, you’d be older than her now. Get your facts straight, kid, don’t pretend to be young."
Selena suddenly scolded,
"Stop giving me these ridiculous excuses. Just tell me, did you fancy her or not? If you did, I’ll help you out, create opportunities for you, even brew potions if necessary."
"She’s very pretty, but I think for me, it’s too early to look for a mate."
Noah hesitated a bit, then shook his head and replied, ƒrēenovelkiss.com
"I’ll reconsider when I become a teenage dragon."
"Stupid idea. Do you think there will be prettier and lovelier dragons waiting for you to pursue later?"
"I never thought that."
"Noah, I’m not lecturing you, but dragons your age should be engaging in romance. When you see a dragon you like, pursue them by all means. Don’t wait and regret missing the chance later."
"Auntie, I’m a Golden Dragon, not a Red Dragon. We’re very cautious about choosing a mate."
The Golden Dragon increasingly felt something was off and couldn’t help but say.
"Yes, I know, so what? Don’t make me repeat myself, I know more about your kind than you do."
Selena scoffed,
"Among the Metallic Dragon Race, the most loyal to their mate are the Bronze Dragons, who only search for one dragon in their lifetime. But that’s Bronze Dragons, what’s that got to do with you Golden Dragons? You Golden Dragons aren’t like that."
"But we’re also very loyal to love."
"Nonsense, don’t think I don’t know, very few Golden Dragons have only one mate in their life; most have multiple mates.
You’re loyal to one relationship, but that doesn’t stop you from finding the next one. You can be loyal to multiple mates at the same time."
"That’s absolute nonsense! Most Golden Dragons only have one mate in their lifetime, only a minority seek multiple mates."
Noah argued, suspecting his adoptive mother might have read some third-rate scholar’s book, totally flipping the narrative and smearing the Golden Dragon’s view on love and relationships.
"Why don’t you calculate with a Dragon Claw how many years you Golden Dragons live? With a lifespan of several thousand years, you would only choose one mate? You’d be bored to death!
This kind of nonsense would only be believed by a clueless little dragon like you; no old fellow who’s lived a few hundred years would buy it.
But speaking of, you Golden Dragons are really good at boasting, sticking any noble trait onto yourselves, even fooling you little ones into believing and mimicking it."
Hearing his adoptive mother’s rant, Noah thought of his grievances right after he was entrusted away by his parents. In terms of nurturing offspring, Golden Dragons who entrust their offspring to others dare to claim they’re doing it responsibly.
But Noah, who’s been through it, knows how absurd that is. If you extrapolate from that, the idea of a Golden Dragon claiming to love only one mate in their lifetime really doesn’t hold up to scrutiny.
"What? Noah, do you plan to find just one female dragon to lay eggs with in your life? Not find more? Isn’t that a waste of your Ancestor Return bloodline? Your family dragon god would scold you!"
"..."
Noah was left speechless, finally managing to squeeze out,
"I haven’t found a female that particularly moves me yet."
After saying this, Noah immediately made a hasty retreat. He didn’t want to keep entangling with his adoptive mother; arguing with her was impossible, reasoning even less so, so he had no choice but to avoid her.
"Almost thirty female dragons and none you fancy? You’re that picky? Disdainful of their bloodline? Where can I find you an Ancestor Return female dragon? Aren’t you giving me a hard time?"
Watching Noah’s fleeing figure, Selena muttered to herself, looking extremely troubled.
Noah didn’t know what his adoptive mother thought, but after that one time, she didn’t bring it up again, not because she didn’t want to, but because Selena had too much on her plate, too busy to spare any time to joke with him even if she could.
