Chapter 121: Chapter 108: Are You Really My Son?_2

Noah turned around incredulously to look at the pair of beautifully harmonious dragon wings behind him, with scales and feathers perfectly distributed. To his eye, every inch, every millimeter was flawless.

But his dad thought otherwise, believing this old geezer really had no taste and no personal opinions, only knowing how to go with the flow. Just look at this shapeshifting humanoid form, simply devoid of any uniqueness.

"I thought you knew everything, but clearly you only know part; since that’s the case, isn’t it normal for little Noah to grow a pair of dragon wings you’ve never seen before? Other than showing your limited knowledge, what else does it show?"

Noah’s adoptive mother Selena’s words were as sharp as ever.

"You’re right, perhaps it’s a legacy left by an ancestor I wasn’t aware of."

Angelis, instead of getting angry at being scolded, fell silent for a moment, then nodded. When he looked again at the wings on Noah’s back, he offered quite a positive assessment,

"Actually, looking closely, these dragon wings, although not characteristic of our Golden Dragons, are quite nice, at least looking much nobler than those of the Silver or Bronze Dragons."

"If you can’t appreciate them, just stay out of the way. Noah himself is very fond of these wings, and since they didn’t grow on you, don’t critique them in that tone."

Though Angelis changed his tune, Selena still wouldn’t let him off the hook, standing up for Noah.

"Noah, don’t pay attention to this woman, and don’t let your imagination run wild."

As a graceful and noble male Golden Dragon, Angelis did not bother quarreling with a woman devoid of mage-like demeanor, which would be unbecoming of the dignity and poise of the Golden Dragon Clan.

He walked over to his son, frowned with hesitation for a while, then gritted his teeth, presenting a pretentious display of reluctance, and finally took out a fist-sized dark red crystal, placing it in front of Noah,

"We, father and son, haven’t seen each other for over twenty years. This visit is rather rushed, so I didn’t have time to prepare a special present for you.

This is a Hellfire Crystal, which I obtained years ago after personally slaying a powerful Hellfire. Although it still retains some Purgatory aura, it won’t affect us Golden Dragons at all and will greatly benefit your growth; you can use it when you slumber..."

The adult Golden Dragon brags about his heroic feats on the battlefield, slaying a powerful Hellfire amidst thousands, while explaining to his son the wonders of the Hellfire Crystal.

"Aurora!"

Noah picked up the Hellfire Crystal and called out behind him. An immediately responding scarlet figure shot out and, ignoring the strong presence of all the others, came before Noah, respectfully lying on the ground with its head lowered,

"Your Highness Noah, what are your commands?"

The Golden Dragon squinted his eyes, examining this dragon hatchling for a moment. This young female dragon wasn’t as fawning as her elder brother, leaning more towards the true nature of a Red Dragon.

However, her elder brother had taught her well. As a female dragon at her weakest stage, she remained sufficiently rational, thus imitating her elder brother quite well.

"Open your mouth."

Aurora tilted her head upward without hesitation and opened her mouth.

The next moment, Noah precisely tossed the precious Hellfire Crystal into the mouth of the young dragon hatchling. The formerly eloquent dragon father suddenly fell silent, frowning as he watched this scene.

"Your Highness Noah!?"

Feeling the oppressive aura from the Golden Dragon behind her, Aurora shivered slightly, holding back the urge to swallow the crystal core in her mouth.

"You have accompanied Little Gwen for several years, and are soon to slumber. This precious Hellfire Crystal Core is your reward for service, it contains some Purgatory aura, which will greatly benefit your bloodline."

"Thank you for the reward, Your Highness!"

Though feeling somewhat baffled, the tangible benefit resting in her mouth made Aurora only regret not having the glib tongue of her elder brother, wishing she could have said a few more words. Otherwise, receiving this crystal core without reassurance would be unsettling.

"You may leave!"

Noah waved his dragon claw, and Aurora swiftly darted back even faster than she had come.

At this moment, the entire place was silent, with dragon father Angelis saying nothing while Selena, who was holding Orsya, couldn’t hold back her laughter any longer and burst out laughing,

"Pfft~ Hahaha, Angelis, look at how stingy you’ve become. Isn’t it hilarious to be snubbed by your own son?

Did you forget who you entrusted your son to all those years? I’m not as stingy as you, and if you’re hesitant to bring out real treasure, don’t show off this little trinket; you’re also embarrassing yourself. Better keep it to yourself."

Hearing this ear-piercing laughter, Angelis showed a pained expression, rubbing his temples with his hand and still ignoring this woman, instead looking at his son,

"What’s with that red dragon hatchling?"

"It’s a dragon pet I raised for entertainment and relaxation."

Noah responded while Angelis, upon hearing this reply, raised his eyebrows sharply.

"That’s a Red Dragon."

"Uh-huh!"

"Alright, Noah is more reasonable than you. It’s only two Red Dragons, not a big deal. Besides, whether it’s him or just any servant under him, they can suppress them, no worries."

Selena said smugly.

"You’ve raised two Red Dragons?"

Angelis was shocked once more.

"Uh-huh."

Noah maintained his indifferent response.

"If so, I happen to have a collection that should match you well."

This time, the dragon father did not hesitate. He briskly took out from his storage equipment a blood-red armor enveloped in a ferocious aura, and introduced it,

"Tyrant’s Lament, forged from the scales and bones of an ancient Red Dragon that ravaged many realms and slaughtered countless innocents, blended with a great amount of Star Iron, Pure Gold, and Mithril to create this Dragon Hunting Armor."

"..."

Noah was rendered speechless, not because his father once again offered a trinket to brush him off, but judging by the inherent appraisal skills of dragon species, this armor suited for humanoid wear was of quite a high rank and would not even seem shabby on a Legend.

But the problem was, this was armor meant to be used against the Dragon Clan. Though forged from the blood, scales, and bones of an ancient Red Dragon, the forger would not have taken the trouble to engrave enchantments limiting its effect to Colorful Dragon types alone during the process.

This thing would be effective against the Metallic Dragon Race as well. This armor’s focus was targeted at all dragon species, not just any particular branch.

Of course, disregarding this point, after being belittled by his adoptive mother, the dragon father’s second offering was genuinely generous. For dragon species, presenting this kind of treasure could hardly be described as anything less than cutting one’s own flesh.

"Angelis, I must admit, you’re a genius."

Even Selena couldn’t help but marvel, retracting her comments about stinginess. However, judging by the gift category, she had to concede her limitations, unable to send out such a gift.

Couldn’t imagine, simply unimaginable.

"Thank you!"

Noah, only momentarily surprised, reacted swiftly, extending his dragon claw to accept this armor, which even came with a Dragon Hunting Spear and Dragon Slayer Sword.

"You’re really reckless; how can you give a gift like this?"

Orsya also couldn’t help but reprimand her husband, but since her child already accepted this ominous, blood-tainted gift, she had no choice but to fetch a piece of magic equipment radiating brilliant holy glow, stepping up to Noah.

It was a golden horn emanating pure holy light, densely inscribed with Heavenly Realm Inscriptions, forming halos swirling around it, appearing divine and extraordinary.

"This horn is called Heaven’s Call. Just blow it, and it can open a portal connecting to Heaven, summoning a squad of Holy Light Angels to fight for you."
