Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire.

Chapter 61: Confessing the King
The sky is clear and the clouds are white

Palu, who was working under the scorching sun, heard the call beside him. He immediately stood up, couldn't help but smile, and looked at his wife who came to bring him water.

"Why don't you rest at home for a while?"

Seeing his wife, Palu's face was filled with happiness, because his wife's belly had a very obvious bulge, which was the biggest motivation for him to sweat in the wheat field.

"I have plenty of time to rest. I'm not one of those noble ladies."

The woman's appearance was not good-looking, and her figure was not slender at all. Her frame was even considered tall, and she was not smaller than her husband.

"Drink some water and take a rest."

The woman handed over the clay pot, Palu took the water, pulled the woman, who was perfect in his eyes, to sit on the ridge of the field, and drank the sweet salt water in big gulps.

"Before the sun sets, I will be able to weed all the weeds in our one-acre field."

Palu assured the woman solemnly, while the woman looked distressed and wiped the sweat from the man's body with a coarse towel.

"It's okay to be late for two days. There's no need to work so hard. We already have plenty of food at home."

"Where is the food?"

Palu smiled when he heard his wife's words. Just as he was about to say something, a roar as sharp as an eagle's cry and as powerful as a lion's roar rang out, deafening. Palu's body suddenly froze.

cracking--

A huge shadow was cast from the sky, covering the two of them, isolating them from the scorching sun, but the feeling of coolness it brought grew in their hearts.

Palu suppressed his fear, raised his head suddenly, and saw the monster above his head casting a shadow on them.

It was a magical creature that combined the advantages of the fierce birds in the sky and the beasts on the land. Its wings were covered with golden-brown feathers, broad and powerful. Every flap could stir up a strong airflow. Its body was huge and strong, with smooth muscle lines, strong and powerful limbs, and sharp claws at the ends...

Griffin!

Palu had no doubt that if this huge monster wanted, he and his wife would become her food in an instant.

Fortunately, the shadow looming over their heads only lasted for a moment. The horrible monster ignored them and flew towards the city of Elisim without looking back.

But before Palu and his wife could feel happy about surviving the disaster, another shadow fell.

Palu stared blankly at the sky above his head. Countless griffins were coming from afar, all with the same goal, heading straight for the main city.

This monster, commonly seen in bards and storybooks, is not the only one dominating the sky at this moment. There is another more ferocious high-level monster soaring in the sky, keeping pace with the griffin.

Wyvern
"Noah is above!"

Unspeakable uneasiness and fear grew in Palu's heart. He held his wife's hand tightly and prayed subconsciously, but not to any god.

It was not just Palu who was seeing this. The flocks of griffins and dragons spread their wings, blocking out the sun and almost blocking out the sunlight. This scene shocked the farmers outside the city of Elishim.

However, when the familiar golden dragon flag fluttered in front of the farmer, the negative emotions of fear and anxiety were almost swept away in an instant.

They were giants with snow-white skin and bodies so tall that they seemed to be able to touch the clouds. They held golden dragon flags in their hands and, surrounded by griffins and flying dragons, slowly moved towards the city at the end of the plain. "Most Holy Noah, please bless me..."

Some people could not bear the tremendous pressure brought by such a scene, and knelt on the ground, praying to the majestic golden dragon coiled on the flag in the giant's hand.

"Tsk, it's really shocking!"

In the lobby of the Dragon's Nest, Teddel looked down at the cloud giants passing through the city below and marveled at it. This was the first time even he had seen such a scene.

"By the way, Noah, why don't you want Uther City? The city has been renovated quite well now. It's no longer what you saw before."

"Because my last name is not Augustus."

"So you want Mount Eldis?"

"Both gold dragons and cloud giants like to live in the mountains, and the Eldis Mountains are the most suitable."

Noah said calmly that Mount Aldis was not an isolated mountain, but a vast and huge mountain range, including the mountain currently occupied by the Dragon's Nest, which belonged to the outer part of this mountain range.

Even the current Augustus family, with its oversized dukedom, has only incorporated part of this mountain range into its territory. As for actual control over it, it is almost non-existent.

In addition, it is worth mentioning that although Noah accepted the fiefdom assigned to him by the Augustus family, he did not have any title. His current status cannot be appropriately addressed in the existing human aristocratic system.

He owned a fiefdom and the armed forces that his adoptive father helped him build, and his adoptive mother promised him that he would have independent taxation and legislative powers in the fiefdom.

The reason for such indulgence is that the Duchess wants to see what the Golden Dragon can do in her own fiefdom. It is better to carve out a territory and do things within a limited range than to do it in the city of Elishim.

If there are good results, we can promote them throughout the country. If not, just pretend we didn’t see them.

"Noah, they're coming up!"

"I see, their settlement has been arranged. Why are you in such a hurry?"

Noah rolled his eyes and said unhappily that the Cloud Giant had been traveling along a predetermined route throughout its journey, and the place where it would settle after arriving was just behind the Dragon's Nest, in the direction of heading deeper into Mount Eldis.

"Compared to these, shouldn't you pay more attention to your own wedding? Your wedding date with the Duke's granddaughter is coming soon, right?"

"There's no need to worry about this kind of thing. When the time comes, I'll just follow the steps and go on stage."

Teddel reached out and rubbed his hair, saying nonchalantly.

"This is your formal ceremony to marry your wife. Your attitude is too perfunctory."

Noah noticed the young man's abnormality, and a look of inquiry appeared in his eyes.

"You don't like that girl?"

"Yes, I like her. My mother likes Edith very much. My father also admires her and taught her a set of sword skills. How could I not like her?"

The young man shrugged his shoulders slightly, spread his hands, and showed a careless smile on his face, which looked mean and a bit like a street hooligan.
"Moreover, putting aside her family background and talent, Edith's appearance can easily rank among the top three among all the women I have ever seen. Being able to marry such a perfect woman is probably the luckiest thing in my life."
