Volume Dragon: Start by obtaining the Infinity Gems

Chapter 45 Oghma, the God of Knowledge

"Okay, you have completed your mission and sent me back. Now you can leave." Segna said to the Scroll Dragon warily.

She was now very afraid that the dragon would take advantage of her serious injuries and do something to her!
She said nonchalantly, "Alas, it was a wasted trip. I was planning to get some gold coins to enrich my dragon's nest, but hiding in this swamp has ruined my treasures so far, and I don't have more than one gold coin!"

Signa thought for a long time and decided to say a number that she probably wouldn't be interested in.

But she didn't expect that her little thoughts had already been seen through by the other party.

"Hehe, sending you back here is not a free service. Do you know how much sweat I have shed and how much time I have wasted in growing up?"

Nemesis said in disbelief: "Time is priceless. I lost such a precious treasure for you, and you are going to drive me away without any expression?!"

"Are you looking down on me? You are insulting the great White Mystery!"

Seeing that Juan Celong was about to fight with her if they disagreed, Segna understood.

She understood it thoroughly. Just as she was coveting the other party's treasure, this hateful dragon had also set his sights on her a long time ago!

She let out a threatening roar. Her head could be cut off and blood could be shed, but gold coins were the Black Dragon’s only bottom line!
Unfortunately, passion comes and goes quickly.

The severely injured black dragon had just opened its mouth with great effort to spit out acid when it was knocked down in no time by the Scroll Dragon's magic.

Even though Nemesis, who has been promoted to a teenage dragon, has not yet completed the synchronization of [Darkest Hour], it is enough to crush a black dragon of the same age.

From this stage on, ordinary, weak-bodied scroll dragons began to have the capital to compete with other true dragons of the same level.

Segna, who was beaten unable to move, stretched out her dragon claws with a miserable look on her face, and let out a heart-wrenching scream as she looked at the scroll dragon that entered her nest to search.

"Do not!!!"

After a long while, Nemesis came out with an unhappy look on his face. He said with disdain, "Just over 10,000 gold coins? Why are you so poor?"

You know, Nemesis is a rich dragon worth 20 gold coins. These gold coins are really disappointing to him.

Signa's eyes were empty, as if she had lost her soul. She said blankly: "Give me back the gold coins."

Nemesis rolled his eyes. "What do you mean by return it to you? This is my reward. Look at where you are. You are penniless and have nothing. What else can you take if not the gold coins? Take yourself?"

He looked Sloppy Dragon up and down, with a look of disgust on his face: "Forget it then."

When Signa heard this, her eyes lit up as if she had thought of something.

She tried to force a charming smile on her skull-like dragon head, with a look of anticipation on her face.

"Yeah, look at me. What do you think? As long as you return the gold coins to me, I'll do anything for you. I'm even willing to sign a slave contract!"

Nemesis pondered for a while and exchanged ten thousand gold coins for a teenage black dragon as a thug. Although the sloppy dragon's appearance was really unsightly, it was indeed a good deal.

He thought for a while, held up five fingers and said, "Five thousand gold coins."

"I'll give you five thousand gold coins and you'll serve me for five hundred years!"

This harsh treatment made Signa unbearable. She said with an expression of bullying, "Five thousand?! Are you sending away beggars?"

"Ten thousand gold coins! Otherwise, no deal!"

Nemesis breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the dragon had some dignity, but not much.

He nodded to show his agreement. Seeing that he agreed so readily, Signa couldn't help but wonder if she was going to get less, and her heart ached again.

But the matter was done, so she had no choice but to bow her head and accept her fate. Nemesis raised his dragon claws and swore: "I, Nemesis, hereby swear to the great god of knowledge, Oghma, that as long as Segna serves me for five hundred years and worships me as her master during this period, I will return ten thousand gold coins to her!"

Segna was a little surprised, but then she also stretched out her dragon claws and made the same oath to the God of Knowledge.

Making an oath to the gods is a guarantee for many mortal creatures to ensure that the other party will fulfill their promise. Once they breach the contract, the gods will bring down divine punishment.

However, this restraining force can only restrain beings of level 17 and below. Any life that embarks on the legendary path cannot be bound by the oath of God.

For legends, or even gods, if they want to make a vow, they need to swear to a more powerful being.

For example, the magic web, and the Styx that runs through the multiverse.

Segna originally thought that the other party would choose to swear an oath to Bahamut, the God of Good Dragons and Lord of the North Wind, but unexpectedly, she chose Oghma.

Thinking of the rumors about the Volume Dragon, she understood.

Nemesis chose to swear an oath to Oghma for a reason. The vast majority of true dragons have no faith, and most of them maintain a respectful attitude towards their dragon gods.

The same is true for the Volume Dragon.

But the God of Knowledge is a fan of volume dragons. Even if the volume dragons do not believe in Him, Oghma will respond to the requests of any volume dragon.

This powerful sage has a great preference for creatures like the Tome Dragon that believe knowledge (and gold) is everything, and even created a spellcasting profession in the name of the Tome Dragon for creatures on the continent of Faerun - the Tome Sage.

It is said that before the ancient scroll dragons die, Oghma will even appear to preach, hoping that these scroll dragons can continue to live in his kingdom of God, and he will also grant them the qualifications to become his holy spirit.

Nemesis had a natural liking for this god. If he wanted to become a divine spellcaster in the future, the first person he would consider would be Oghma.

After signing the contract, Nemesis quickly flapped his wings and flew away. He no longer wanted to stay in this smelly place.

"When you recover from your injuries, bring your family to my territory and don't destroy the environment!" Nemesis, flying in the sky, scattered a lot of gold coins and flew away.

The gold coins fell into the wet soil and water with a tinkling sound. Segna's eyes lit up and she even ignored the pain and began to drag her body to collect the gold coins.
