Because this trip is likely to result in a military conflict with the Black Dragon Clan, Valensa does not plan to take Thousand Leaf Grass with her to the Witch's Forest.

Knowing she might hold them back, Chiba didn't insist. She came to Klar City with them for special training in the Misty Mountains.

Valencia, who was originally about the same strength as her, has already left her far behind. Even Tia is about to become the Witch of Time, so Thousand Leaf Grass naturally wants to become stronger. The Misty Mountains are a good place to cultivate.

Valensa hesitated for a moment before agreeing to Thousand Leaf Grass's training plan, but she designated a training area for Thousand Leaf Grass in the Misty Mountains. Valensa had encountered all the Radiant-Rank monsters in this area and knew that they would not actively harm humans.

Chiba knew that Valensa was doing this for her own good, so she didn't refuse. They agreed to train by constantly battling various Lighthouse-level monsters in the area designated by Valensa, and then pick Valensa up on her way back from the Witch Forest.

Upon arriving at the Misty Mountains, Valensa first took Thousand Leaf Grass to visit the several Radiant-rank monster lords who were relatively friendly to humans, letting them know that Thousand Leaf Grass was their friend and could lend a hand in crucial moments, for which Valensa was willing to express her gratitude.

The vast majority of monster lords said they wouldn't bother Thousand Leaf Grass, but when it came to asking for help, they mostly yawned and pretended not to hear.

These monster lords are all seasoned veterans of the Misty Mountains. They won't actively cause trouble for the two-legged beasts, but they also don't want to get involved in their messy affairs.

Only the big cat that begged for food and let Valensa pet it last time came again, and it still rolled onto its back in front of Valensa this time. It also gave a clear affirmative answer that it would take care of Thousand Leaf Grass, as long as Valensa gave it more human food.

Valensa was naturally delighted with the well-behaved, adorable, and greedy big cat. She immediately lit a fire and set up a pot, preparing a variety of delicious dishes for the cat as if she were entertaining a friend. The cat rolled around on the ground in satisfaction and even let Valensa ride it.

After letting Thousand Leaf Grass stay in the big cat's territory to cultivate as much as possible, Valensa set off again, directly crossing the Misty Mountains to enter the Witch's Forest.

Valensa had been to the Fairy Dragon's Lair once before, when Dreigan took her there, but back then she was just a Pearl-level Little Knight and had no ability to find her way around the Witch Forest. Now, even if she wanted to go again, she wouldn't know where it was.

But it doesn't matter, Valensa knows the local bigwigs in the Witch's Forest.

As one of the nine great witches, Ailanfeier must know how to find the Fairy Dragon Clan; just go ask her first.

It just so happens that when Valensa came last time, she memorized the safe route from the border of the Witch Forest and the Misty Mountains to Elanfiel's residence.

They sped along at around Mach 3, and many curious and powerful monsters came to sense them, but they were only curious and had no interest in the passing black-silk two-legged beasts.

This was indeed a safe route. The monsters along the way were relatively docile, without the kind of violent temper that would rush to fight you if they sensed movement from dozens of kilometers away.

However, Valensa encountered an awkward situation when she arrived near Alanfeel's cabin.

She didn't dare get closer to perceive it, because the occasional sounds coming from the cabin were too easy to associate with certain things.

"Master... Master, please don't! I'm still a child."

The voice belonged to the pitiful Cui Bisi.

"It's okay, sweetie, let me see... It won't hurt, you'll feel better soon."

The voice was Elanfiel's strange laugh.

Valensa immediately conjured up all sorts of horrific images in her mind. After hesitating for a moment, she didn't dare to approach and disturb them any further. Instead, she lay down on a nearby tree branch and played video games to make do for the night.

It wasn't until the next morning that Alanfeel stretched and walked out of the cabin with a comfortable look on her face, and found Valensa dozing in the tree branch.

"Huh? Valensa?"

Elanfeel immediately beckoned to the tree branch, causing Valensa to be carried by an invisible magical hand and flown towards the cabin.

Valensa woke up instantly. Recognizing Elanfil's magic, she didn't resist and quickly entered Elanfil's yard, landing with a smile and greeting them:

Good morning, Sister Alan Feier.

"Hmm, good morning, Valencia...wait, something's not right!"

Ailanfeier said, giving him a reproachful glare:

"Valenza, what's wrong with you? You look like you arrived last night, right? Why didn't you come inside to find your sister? Is it comfortable up in the tree?"

"This……"

Valensa was speechless, thinking to herself, "Sister, don't you have any idea what you were doing last night?" But she couldn't just complain directly, so she could only say it more tactfully:

"A moment of beauty is worth a thousand pieces of gold. As a refined lady, how can I disturb others so casually?"

"Huh? A pleasant night?"

Ailanfeier was stunned for a moment, and it took her a while to understand. Her eyes were strange.

"Valenza, you...you don't think I did something to Tribes last night, do you?"

Didn't you have any? I heard everything!

Valensa didn't speak, but her eyes seemed to speak volumes as she looked at Elanfiel.

Ailan Fei'er understood immediately and smiled:

"It seems Valensa arrived at a rather opportune time last night. Perhaps she overheard some potentially misunderstood conversations? But it's nothing. I was just checking on Tribes's training progress and physical development. You could have come directly."

"Hey?"

Valensa was surprised and somewhat incredulous.

After all, those voices and conversations are too easy to misinterpret. The key point is that Elanfil has a history of such behavior. Last time, she smoked her little apprentice in front of Valensa and Tia quite a bit.

"really."

Alanfeel, somewhat exasperated by Valensa's suspicions, shrugged.

"I admit that I do have all sorts of desires for Tribes, after all, I raised her as my wife since she was a baby... But I wouldn't do anything to her right now. Kissing, hugging and sucking a little to satisfy my cravings is the limit. I'll wait until she's fully developed before doing anything else, right?"

"Well... okay, then I misunderstood Sister Alan Fei'er. I'm sorry."

Valensa could tell that Alan Fehr was not lying, nor did she have any reason to lie, so she decisively admitted her mistake and explained her intentions:

"To be honest, I've come here because I need your help with something."

"I got it."

Ailanfeier smiled and nodded, completely unconcerned.

"Okay, what is it? Make it clear first, if it's something too troublesome, I might refuse or demand a price, okay?"

"I wanted to ask you about something, sister..."

For a great witch like Ailanfeier, playing tricks and manipulative tactics would be superfluous; telling the truth and making a sincere request would be the most effective approach.

So Valensa briefly recounted how she had fought alongside Cinderella, the Fairy Dragon Princess, and showed Elanfiel the Moon Kiss that had lost its power. Finally, she asked Elanfiel how to find the Fairy Dragon.

"As expected of Valensa, you are truly worthy of being called 'Little Valensa'..."

After patiently listening to the whole story, Ailanfeier sighed:

"The Fairy Dragons are the most mysterious branch of the dragon race. Even I rarely see them, let alone have a chance to speak with them, yet you received the dragon's blessing from their princess..."

"Dragon's Blessing?"

Valensa raised an eyebrow curiously; it was the first time she had heard such a statement.

"It's just my own terminology, used to refer to the dragons sharing their power."

Ailanfeier shrugged, then said meaningfully:

"Don't many adventure novels have this kind of plot? The protagonist gains the power of a dragon for various reasons and becomes a legend with these powers... Such protagonists will most likely become dragon knights in the end. Perhaps you, Valencia, also have this opportunity?"

“Dragon knight? No, no, no… No, no, Sister Dreigan is a princess of the Fairy Dragon Clan, how could she have a dragon knight?” Valensa waved her hands repeatedly.

Dragon knights are not just knights who ride dragons into battle; they form a closer relationship with their contracted dragons, essentially equivalent to a married couple in human society. Within the dragon race, they are considered a unified whole, sharing both glory and loss.

So, many dragon riders are the kind who ride dragons during the day and dragons ride people at night.

However, the dragons that dragon knights contract with are mostly red dragons or frost dragons. These two types of dragons are the most likely to engage in interracial relationships and easily fall in love with humans and form contracts.

But fairy dragons are different. Fairy dragons need to be chaste to practice moon magic. They don't even interact much with male dragons of their own kind, let alone with other races like humans... Humans and dragons have been interacting for thousands of years, but there has never been a fairy dragon knight.

Of course, it's impossible to say that Valensa never had lust after Dregran's body... after all, Dregran's human form is a very beautiful older sister.

But a lady's desires are not to be taken lightly, and Valensa was unwilling to disrupt Dreigan's training, so she never had the idea of ​​becoming a dragon knight.

Alanfeel simply smiled noncommittally and said nothing more, instead bringing up information that Valensa might be interested in:

"Actually, when I was drinking with two silver dragon friends a while ago, I actually heard some things from them, which may be related to your fairy dragon sister."

"What's wrong?" Valensa asked hurriedly.

"A sacred duel between dragons, which hasn't happened for nearly a century, has reappeared."

Ailanfeier shrugged:

"But I don't know the specifics... The two silver dragon sisters got drunk afterwards, and what they said was incoherent and had no value or credibility whatsoever."

"A sacred duel among dragons? What's that?" Valensa asked again.

"Simply put, it's the ultimate means for resolving conflicts within the dragon race."

Ailanfei thought for a moment and said:

"As you know, Valencia, although dragons are powerful individually, their numbers are extremely small. Even with the addition of live dragon eggs, the total number of dragons is no more than 200... Therefore, they value each individual very much and strictly prohibit killing each other, no matter how great the hatred."

However, some conflicts are absolutely irreconcilable and there is no reasoning with them... At this time, the only way for the dragons to solve the problem is to launch a holy duel.

I'm not entirely clear on the specific rules, but I know that the duel is witnessed by the entire dragon race, and the loser must unconditionally agree to the winner's demands before the duel and cannot disobey them, otherwise they will be considered a traitor to their race.

Chapter 4 has been made into cards.

"Does Sister Alanfeier mean that Sister Long has been caught up in the dragon race's sacred duel?"

Valensa hesitated for a moment, then nodded:

"It's quite possible... Sister Long had a deep-seated hatred for the Black Dragon Prince back then, and the dragon clan doesn't allow members of the same clan to kill each other, so the only way to resolve this conflict is probably through a duel."

"So if you really can't find the Fairy Dragon's lair, you can try asking other dragons about the Holy Duel; you might get something out of it," Alanfeier said with a smile.

"Even you, Sister Alanfeier, have absolutely no clue about the Fairy Dragon's Nest?"

Valensa, still somewhat unwilling to give up, asked again.

The dragons' sacred duel is indeed a clue, but Valensa wants to find out more about what happened to Dreigan and what her current situation is.

"I really didn't know... Fairy Dragons are the most mysterious dragon race."

Ailanfeier shrugged, then hesitated for a moment before reluctantly saying:

"However, Valensa, you might want to try contacting that guy, Law... As the most skilled apothecary on the entire Frenoia continent, she has done business with almost every intelligent race, so she might have a way to contact the Fairy Dragon Clan."

"What about Sister Lu?"

Valensa nodded:

"Understood, I'll try going to Sister Lu's place later."

Seeing that Alanfeel was clearly unhappy after she finished speaking, Valensa quickly added in a slightly coquettish tone:

"Sister Alanfeier's information has been a great help to me... Sister, could you tell me where I can find some talkative dragons to get information?"

"……snort."

Elanfiel gave Valensa a disgruntled look, but still stretched out her hand and used magic projection to construct a map of the entire Witch's Forest, then pointed to one of the locations:

"Here, there is a small village with a population of less than a hundred. In the town, there is a bar run by dragons called 'Sharp Horns and Hard Scales,' which also serves human customers. Red dragons and frost dragons who like to flirt with humans often drink there, and occasionally silver dragons also appear."

As she spoke, Alan Fehr looked Valensa up and down with a strange expression:

"Hmm... With your assets and cleverness, little sister, if you put in a little effort in that kind of place, you should be able to find out a lot of useful information."

But I still have to remind you—don't pretend to be drunk there! That place is actually a place where some roguish dragons flirt with handsome men and beautiful women. If you dare to pretend to be drunk there, the dragons there will take you home and force you to go to bed with them!

Dragons are inherently lustful, as evidenced by the large number of dragon-blooded monsters, right? Dragons like your fairy dragon sister, who are chaste and virtuous, are exceptions; the vast majority are scoundrels... Valencia, you're so beautiful, be extremely careful when dealing with dragons, male or female.”

"Yes, I understand. Don't worry, Sister Alanfeier."

Valensa smiled confidently:

"I've been a solo female adventurer for quite some time, so I have some experience dealing with various SPs in those situations. It shouldn't be a big problem."

As for getting drunk, Sister Alanfeier, you don't need to worry about that at all... As long as I don't want to get drunk, there's no alcohol in this world that can make me drunk.

"Just know it yourself."

After speaking, Ailanfeier waved her hand dismissively.

"Alright, I know you're eager to find that guy Lu to ask about the Fairy Dragon, so stop hanging around in front of me. I still need to give that girl Cui Bisi some pointers on her cultivation later."

"Yes, thank you very much, Sister Ailanfeier."

Valensa clearly didn't intend to stay any longer, but she didn't leave immediately either. Instead, she rummaged through the storage space of the artifact cloak and took out two items:

"Tia and I recently took a nice trip to the Four Islands Alliance. This is a souvenir for you and Emerald Ribbon, Sister Alanfeier~~"

None of them were particularly valuable items. One of them was an ordinary food box containing some local delicacies from the Shishima Alliance, such as crucian carp.

The other is a toy for Emerald Ribbon, a figure-sized kimono doll with exquisite craftsmanship, a removable kimono, and six interchangeable colors.

"Good good..."
