Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire

To speak truthfully, it's not just the Dragon Fairy Sifreya who feels tempted; Noah himself is somewhat moved. This is because, in any war connected to him, every warrior affiliated with him or related to him, with each enemy they slay—especially those evil races identified by the Metallic Dragon Race—provides feedback to the Golden Tree, becoming nourishment for the growth of the Blood Origin Fruit.

Although Noah's bloodline is currently strong enough, it has not yet reached the pinnacle of Dragon Clan evolution. He is merely an Ancestor Dragon with a relatively powerful bloodline, yet still lacking compared to those Ancestor Dragons he has encountered.

As for the Star Forging Dragon King he once met, there is no need to mention it further; it is at the peak of Dragon Clan lineage and power.

The authority of the Dragon King is so vast that it can create, according to its own needs and conditions, a branch of Dragon Clan with it as the source. The Dragon King is the Dragon Ancestor.

Noah longs to reach such a realm, but this realm remains far too distant for him, though it is simply distant—Noah can still see it. Many powerful Dragon Species spend their lives only able to look up to the Dragon King.

It is precisely because of this that Alexander's conquest blueprint also attracts Noah, because Noah knows this kid is definitely not just drawing illusions; he truly wants to expand territories.

Alexander's desire for conquest is not weaker than that of his father Uranos. Back then, after receiving the conferment from Uranos and obtaining the qualification to lead an army, he continued to expand beyond the national borders.

Such a fellow aiming to become the Conquest King after ascending the throne is also within expectations. To achieve the goal of conquest, slightly bowing his head to gain support with certain resources is nothing.

"Your Highness Noah, have I acted without your approval?"

Seeing Noah lost in deep thought, Sifreya asked somewhat anxiously.

"Why have such thoughts? You can choose your own path, I won't blame you."

Noah glanced at Sifreya, affirming her choice, and also expressing his stance,

"When you go to the Capital, you must assist Alexander and quickly complete the construction of the Dragon Rider Group!"

"Yes."

The so-called Dragon Rider Group naturally refers to a Knight Order riding Dragon Beasts. During Selena's reign in the Augustus family, three Dragon Rider Groups were successively created.

The organizational structure of these Dragon Rider Groups remains to this day, but they are difficult to expand. Hence, the breeding, cultivation, and training of Dragon Beasts are each challenging, let alone forming a structured Knight Order.

In the process of forming these Dragon Rider Groups, Noah was also involved. The True Dragon Species's bloodline can suppress Dragon Beasts, making the training and coordination between knights and Dragon Beasts highly effective.

However, that was in the past. Now, Noah would not engage in such activities, as these tasks can be handed over to his Favored. Whether it's Alexander, who inherited two drops of his True Blood, or his brothers, all possess Dragon Power not weaker than the True Dragon Species.

This is perhaps why this New King dares to plan the formation of thirty Dragon Rider Groups, but he and his brothers alone are not enough, so he sets his sights on Noah.

"Speaking of which, back then, you were just half a step away from becoming a Legend, and now you're still half a step away."

Noah examined the Dragon Fairy before him, revealing a hint of sigh in his words.

"Sifreya is incompetent and has disappointed Your Highness Noah."

"The gate of Legend is not so easy to breach, no need to be impatient."

Noah comforted this Dragon Fairy, knowing that in just a few decades, for Longevity Species, this time is insufficient to complete accumulation and achieve a qualitative transformation. It is only short-lived species like humans that can unleash their full potential and shine brightly, albeit rarely.

"I grant you a little favor to aid you a bit further."

"Your Highness, the favors I've received by staying with you have already been abundant."

Seeing the mass of light, bursting with golden radiance in Noah's outspread Dragon Claw, Sifreya, although her heart raced, still lowered her head, suppressing the deep-seated yearning erupting from her soul.

"You have served me for a hundred and seventy years, and over these years, I haven't gifted you with a worthy reward. This drop of True Blood is granted to you, hoping you can soon step into Legend and become a true Fairy Queen."

At this moment, Noah allowed no room for refusal. With a wave of his Dragon Claw, a drop of dazzling True Blood, radiant like a small sun, was flung down, sinking directly into Sifreya's chest and merging within.

"Mmm～"

Although it was her first time receiving a True Blood endowment, and the True Blood she merged with was severed post-Noah's advancement to Legend, Sifreya did not experience the devastating pain that Alexander and his brother once endured upon merging with True Blood.

She naturally accepted this drop of True Blood, without revealing any pain or discomfort on her face, but rather a blush, appearing to be quite enjoying it.

Such discrepancy in reactions caught Noah's eye, slightly surprised yet unconcerned. After all, she was a Dragon Fairy who had served him for nearly two hundred years.

The Dragon Fairy's every evolution has been completed because of him; such a transformation makes her bond with the True Blood, without any rejection reaction, naturally normal. It was distinctly different from Alexander, who was a pure human when he fused, and is quite reasonable.

Nourished by this drop of True Blood from Noah, the Dragon Fairy Sifreya's face became even more tender. However, this alluring face was quickly overlaid with Dragon Scales adorning the sides of her cheeks.
