Mr. Dragon Knight, the dragon girls are chasing you!

Luo Ye couldn't help but laugh as he watched her earnest expression, as if she wasn't going to miss a single word of the praise. "Alright, I'll say it again."

He cleared his throat, straightened his posture, and began to type: "Seraphina sent a small, silvery-white dragon to deliver a message. The dragon was not much bigger than a wildcat, and it flew erratically as if it had just learned to fly. It passed through your barrier—"

"Skip this part," Eluvia interrupted him, tapping her tail on the table.

"Just tell me the part that praised me."

Luo Ye smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you are the most beautiful and adorable dragon on the entire continent, without a doubt."

"Your gilded vertical pupils are brighter than amber under the moonlight, every dragon scale on your body is as exquisite as a work of art sculpted by a master, even the sound of your dragon tail hitting the table when you're angry is particularly pleasant, and when you whine and snuggle into my arms—"

"Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop!" Eluvia's wings slapped against his face, completely covering his mouth, turning his entire dragon red from head to tail.

"You, you're getting more and more outrageous! Who snuggled into your arms! I was just, I was tired from flying and needed to find a place to stay—"

Her wings were still covering his face, and her muffled voice came from behind the wing membrane, the last syllable already starting to drift away.

Luo Ye's mouth was pressed down by her, his eyes curved into crescent shapes, and his shoulders shook with laughter.

It took Eluvia a while to retract her wings, take a half step back, clear her throat, and try to regain some of her dragon king's majesty: "...So what you said is true? You didn't go to her on your own initiative?"

"Of course not," Luo Ye said frankly. "When have I ever lied to you?"

Eluvia tilted her head and immediately exposed her: "But you lied just now."

Luo Ye: "..."

His expression froze instantly, his lips twitched slightly, and he was speechless for a moment.

Seeing his humiliated expression, the last trace of anger in Eluvia's eyes finally dissipated, and a slight smile appeared on her lips.

She landed back on the table and gently tapped the stone surface with her front paws: "You swear, everything you said is true."

"Absolutely true, every word is true." Luo Ye immediately raised his right hand, making a gesture of swearing an oath, his expression sincere and solemn.

"If I have uttered even half a lie, then let me..."

He suddenly stopped mid-sentence, and alarm bells went off in his head.

Oh no, what if this vow comes true? After all, this game is all about swords and magic, and there are dragons too.

Making a solemn oath would be nothing short of digging a hole for yourself!

But the words were already out, and the die was cast; he could only grit his teeth and continue: "...Let me never eat barbecue in my life."

Eluvia wrinkled her small nose slightly, her face full of disdain: "This vow is too weak, it has no sincerity at all."

"Then what oath does Your Majesty want me to swear?" Luo Ye readily relinquished power, adopting an extremely humble posture, perfectly matching her little temper.

Eluvia tilted her head and pondered seriously for two seconds, a sly glint in her eyes, before slowly speaking:

"If you lie to me, I will punish you for the rest of your life, for the rest of your days, without rest, year after year, and you will not be allowed to steal a single bite for yourself!"

Luo Ye: "...That's too ruthless."

Eluvia gave a soft hum, her tail tip twitching slightly, clearly quite satisfied with her punishment.

She paused for a few seconds, then said, "Alright, I'll believe you this time. However—"

She raised her eyes, a serious glint flashing in her gilded vertical pupils: "Next time, I will ask her myself. If you lie to me, don't blame me for being impolite."

A cold sweat instantly broke out on Luo Ye's back, but his expression remained as steady as Mount Tai: "Rest assured, Your Majesty, please ask. I have a clear conscience."

He spoke with great confidence.

Serafina is such a smart person; as long as he doesn't mess things up when they meet, she'll be able to cooperate perfectly.

After all, the Silver Dragon King's greatest strength lies in her ability to navigate within limits. She and he are naturally inclined to maintain the right balance, and in certain situations, they can even be of one mind.

He completely trusts her.

Eluvia finally lowered her guard.

She gave a soft hum, turning her head away haughtily, but her tail had already unconsciously wrapped around his neck again, even tighter than before.

"Hmph, I only spared you this time because I saw that you have been diligent and hardworking in your cultivation in the back mountain. Don't flatter yourself."

Luo Ye chuckled and reached out to rub her little head.

Eluvia felt incredibly comfortable from his massage. Her golden vertical pupils narrowed unconsciously, her eyes filled with contentment. Soft, delicate moans escaped her throat, and she unconsciously nuzzled her head against his warm palm, completely letting down her guard.

Luo Ye looked down at her obedient appearance, which showed complete trust and no defenses. His heart softened, but at the same time, he felt a deep sense of guilt and unease.

The crisis is over, and we've passed this hurdle.

In a daze, he recalled the first time he saw this little black dragon.

At that time, she was trapped by a curse and on the verge of despair. She was full of resentment, cold and arrogant, and harbored hostility and murderous intent towards him. Her favorability rating was as low as negative ten, and her eyes were full of coldness and aloofness.

And now, this proud and domineering Eternal Night Dragon King has entrusted all his tenderness, vulnerabilities, and trust to him without reservation.

A thought suddenly rushed into Luo Ye's mind, uncontrollably driving his fingertips.

His fingertips moved up half an inch, landing on the softest, most sensitive, fine scale at the base of the dragon horn, and pressed down gently.

"--Um!"

A short, delicate, soft groan, with an upturned ending, escaped uncontrollably from Eluvia's throat.

Her petite dragon body suddenly trembled violently, as if a subtle electric current had passed through her entire body. Her scales instantly turned a translucent crimson, spreading from her neck to the top of her head, pink and delicate.

The soft dragon tail that had been wrapped around Luo Ye's neck suddenly lost its strength and loosened, leaving the entire tail stiff and suspended in mid-air, motionless, completely out of commission.

The eyes that had been half-closed in comfort from his massage were now wide open, filled with disbelief, shock, and the embarrassment of wanting to curse but being unable to speak properly.

The base of the small dragon horns was shrouded in a faint halo, like two small stones that had just been pulled out of lava and had not yet cooled down. The heat made his heart flutter slightly.

"You damn dragon knight! What are you doing? Stop it!"

Eluvia let out a soft breath, her eyes instinctively turning to Luo Ye, and the dragon froze.

Because Luo Ye's hand was still on her head, her body was completely exposed.

Ailuvia was stunned!

"Why aren't you dressed yet!"

Luo Ye helplessly raised his hand, pointing to the scattered ashes on the ground, his tone full of amusement and exasperation: "Your Majesty, all my clothes were burned to ashes by your dragon breath. Even if I wanted to wear something, I have nothing to wear."

Eluvia opened her mouth, wanting to refute, but found that everything he said was true, and she seemed to be in the wrong.

Her gaze kept drifting downwards, inadvertently sweeping over his firm, well-defined muscles and long, powerful legs...

Then she quickly and hurriedly moved away, her face turning bright red, her haughty demeanor completely collapsing, and she couldn't even speak coherently, pretending that she hadn't seen anything.

"Then, then hurry up and get a new one from the cupboard! Do you expect me to get it for you?!"
