King of Titans and Dragons-Chapter 48 - Dragon Titan

Chapter 48: Chapter 48 Dragon! Titan!

Chapter 48 -48 Dragon! Titan!

Five long years have passed, and Muria still sleeps in the golden cocoon, showing no signs of waking up. During Muria’s five-year slumber, there have been significant changes in the Five-Color Dragon Castle.

In the Dragon Castle, more than half of the baby dragons have entered their sleeping period and have matured into juvenile dragons capable of surviving in the wider world of Elasia. Meanwhile, the remaining dragons have all entered their sleeping period as well.

Strong and nimble juvenile dragons come and go in the Five-Color Dragon Castle, filling it with vitality. This presence, however, makes Muria’s prior directive seem empty, not because the giants have failed to obey Muria’s orders, but because they lack the capability to enforce them.

These five-colored dragons have a powerful patron, their magic instructor, Dragon King Dimos. As long as they have his approval, these dragons dare to defy the giants of the fortress and come and go as they please, even though they dare not be excessively reckless.

At first, when a dragon wanted to fly out of the Dragon Castle, the Storm Giants would try to stop it. But the dragons would then plead their case to Dimos, who would declare, “Dragons should fly in the wide and boundless sky, and not be confined to a castle.”

Thus, the juvenile dragons frolic freely with full heart’s content. However, they keep in mind that their range of activity is only limited to Taiji Island, and no dragon has ever left that area.

Because within the Dragon Castle, a dragon has compiled a set of data from the books borrowed by Muria from her mother, Atris. The dragon has titled this data set, “An Analysis of Annihilation Ages and Races of the Five-Color Dragon Clan.”

This report, compiled primarily from records of dragon-slaying incidents, lists the rates of premature deaths at various ages for the five types of evil dragons and the probabilities of each dragon race being slaughtered.

The report caused a stir among the five-colored dragons, causing them to tremble in fear. The report showed that young and baby dragons had the highest rates of accidental deaths. As age increased, the death rate gradually declined.

The report had a significant impact. The statistics significantly stimulated the Red and White Dragons, greatly enhancing their motivation to learn. According to the report, the White Dragons had the highest number of deaths among the five-colored dragons, closely followed by the Red Dragons.

For those individuals or organizations in Elasia who want to make a name for themselves through dragon-slaying, choosing the White Dragons is definitely the best choice. But the Red Dragons, with their shockingly high death rates, are dying by their own hand.

This dragon race is too proud and greedy, and often immature Red Dragons would raid villages and cities. This behavior forces surrounding races to pool money and hire dragon-slayers. As such, the Red Dragons have a startlingly high death rate.

Another impact of the report was to make all the Five-Colored Dragons understand how fortunate their current situation is. Under Muria’s protection, they are in an absolutely safe environment where they can grow without worry.

Therefore, none of the dragons want to leave Taiji Island. Life on the island is just slightly more difficult because they need to study magic every day and cannot be lazy or idle. Compared to the outside world, it’s much safer here.

The report has also made its author famous. White Dragon Clodia’s name circulated not only among the Five-Colored Dragons but also reached the ears of many giants because of her intelligence.

“Renata, when will Muria wake up?” Two red-haired and red-eyed girls were sitting on a parapet of the castle platform, staring at the golden cocoon closely guarded by the Storm Giants.

“I don’t know.” The dragon girl Renata tilted her head, a little worried as she looked at the golden cocoon, “But it should be soon. Muria has been asleep for five years.”

“Yawn!” Dragon girl Cynthia opened her mouth in a big yawn, looking sleepy, “By the time he wakes up, it’s almost time for our next hibernation. If Muria wakes up a bit later, we will become adolescent dragons.”

“I don’t think so. I feel like Muria is about to wake up! We should be able to see him before our hibernation.” Renata pondered for a moment and said.

“How can you tell that Muria is about to wake up?” Cynthia asked curiously.

“Didn’t you see it?” Renata’s eyes shimmered, pointing to the Cloud Giant girls not far away who were cleaning up the discarded crystals for Muria, “The number of crystals those Cloud Giants clean up every day is decreasing.”

“How do you know that it decreases every day?” Cynthia looked surprisedly at her sister.

“I’m here every day. Of course, I would know!” Renata said confidently.

“Why do you come here every day?” Cynthia asked puzzledly. “Muria is still asleep. He can’t see you doing this. What’s the use?”

“I just want Muria to see me first when he wakes up.” Dragon girl Renata lowered her head slightly, speaking a bit shyly.

“I can’t stand you.” Cynthia grinned at Renata’s show of shyness, unable to comprehend it. Then she looked back at Muria’s golden cocoon, “But, I am a bit curious as to what Muria will look like when he wakes up.”

“I am equally curious. The golden cocoon has consumed so many Elemental Crystals in the past five years and has been continuously growing and getting bigger. I really want to know how strong Muria will be when he wakes up.”

At that moment, a phenomena appeared. Centered around Muria’s cocoon, which had grown to be twenty-five meters tall, was a hurricane that had appeared out of nowhere. The enormous pull of the hurricane spread to an area of a thousand meters around the Dragon Castle. Within this area, the elements of wind, fire, and thunder were pulled and poured into the golden cocoon.

Just as the sucking force also reached the accumulated Elemental Crystals piled up around the cocoon, the amount of crystal waste was deducted rapidly due to the suddenly strengthened sucking force, which covered one-third of the golden cocoon.

“What’s going on?” The Storm Giants guarding the Golden Cocoon were somewhat flustered upon witnessing the scene. They had never encountered such a situation before. “Quick, replenish the elemental crystals. His Majesty is about to drain all these crystals!”

Thus, the somewhat panicked Cloud Giants and Storm Giants each took out their storage bags and hastily poured heaps of elemental crystals towards the Golden Cocoon.

“Don’t panic.” A calm male voice echoed in the ears of the somewhat chaotic, towering giants.

“His Majesty!” Upon seeing the figure that unexpectedly appeared beside the Golden Cocoon, a figure devoid of any grandeur or aura, the giants all showed their respects. Their restless and fearful hearts were immediately pacified.

“This is the prelude to my grandson’s awakening. His slumber has ended and there’s no need to add more elemental crystals.”

“Understood!”

Upon hearing Dimos’s words, the giants stopped pouring the elemental crystals at hand, held their storage bags, and stood aside.

Exactly as Dimos had said, this was a sign of Muria’s awakening. That strong suction force only lasted for a short while before vanishing. After which, the anomaly that had persisted for five years above the Golden Cocoon also completely dissipated, leaving only the Cocoon radiating a golden glow.

“His Majesty is really about to awaken.” Seeing this situation, a Storm Giant whispered to himself.

“What’s up? What’s going on?” The commotion on the platform had also drawn the attention of the Five-Color Dragons nearby. One after another, they flew in from all directions and landed on the spacious platform. Then, they saw the Golden Cocoon, bereft of any anomalies.

“Boom!” A sound, akin to the beating of a massive heart, rang out. As this sound echoed, the faintly glowing Golden Cocoon suddenly blazed with light. But as the sound faded, so did the light.

“Boom!” A bigger heartbeat echoed once again, the dazzling golden light accompanying it…

“Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” The heartbeat that reverberated all around, calm and rhythmic, grew louder with each pulse. The golden light from the cocoon pulsed along with the heartbeats, growing brighter each time.

“Boom!” Finally, with a heart-stopping pulse, the light from the Golden Cocoon reached a dazzling climax, causing many giants and dragons to squint in its brilliance.

“Rumble!” The Golden Cocoon burst open, and a tall, robust figure rocketed into the sky, heading straight for the dome of the sky.

“Roar!” Then, a cheerfully excited draconic roar reverberated across the heavens, shaking all directions.

“Is that Muria?” On the platform, a dragon watched the figure soaring in the sky with some disbelief and asked its companions.

“Probably is!” The dragon that was questioned eyed the large figure circling excitedly above the castle in an uncertain manner.

“That is His Majesty, but why does he look like that?” Compared to those dragons, the giants on the castle were not so calm. Like a pot of boiling water, they were churning in confusion and fear.

Because the figure circling above the castle was no longer Muria in his usual Titan form with dragon wings, but a formidable Golden Giant Dragon.

It was a type of dragon that had never been depicted or described in any books. The Giants had never seen a dragon similar to it, and the five-coloured dragons, despite racking their brains and plowing through their inherited knowledge, couldn’t find any dragon race that matched Muria’s current form.

The current Muria had six Dragon horns growing evenly spaced on his forehead, extending backward at three different angles, resembling a crown of some sort.

Moreover, like his paternal grandfather, Dimos, he had an astonishingly sturdy Dragon body. His body was covered with golden bony scaled armor, with dense golden scales tucked amidst this armor-like layout, as if he was donned in an armor suit.

“Roar!” Muria, now a sixty-four-meter-long dragon, spread his feather-like scale-covered wings and circled above the Dragon Fortress, discharging his excitement and feeling the surging power within his transformed body.

Then, Muria slightly lowered his majestic dragon head, and his radiant dragon’s eye saw the flustered giants on the platform. After a moment of surprise, he realized what had happened.

“Did you think that I lost my Titan bloodline just because I am now in dragon form? Humph, how pathetic.”

Thus, the golden giant dragon swooped down, flying toward the castle platform. During this process, endless lightning and storm erupted from his dragon body…

“Bang!” The giant dragon collided with the castle platform, causing white jade debris to scatter. Amidst the dust cloud, a young Titan of thirty-two meters height, enveloped in golden lightning and storms, stepped forward.

“What are you all panicking about?” The voice of the youth resonated above the Dragon Fortress’s platform.
