NOVEL NEXT Chapter 348: Kid, Do You Want a Wife or Not?
"Me? To replace that Golden Monarch?"
After hearing Noah's words, Sorlon was completely stunned. If it were just a moment ago, he would have certainly thought that this old man he had found was insane and out of his mind, and he would be considering how to settle him properly now.
But now, looking at the old man whose presence was becoming more and more magnificent, as if a divine being had descended, an extremely complex emotion began to grow and explode in his heart, causing his heart and mind to waver.
Fear, panic, trembling, ecstasy, disbelief; pushed by all these indefinable complex emotions, Sorlon's body started to shake.
He slowly retreated a few steps and sat down on the ground, because that aura had already borne down on him as if tangible, making him uncontrollably give rise to a desire to respect and worship, and then Sorlon couldn't help but ask,
"Who are you?"
"Who do you think I am?"
Noah stepped down from the bed, and the old human face he had disguised quickly began to change, his hair and beard turning golden, his eyes transforming into vertical pupils, like two great suns set within.
His figure began to grow tall and majestic, dragon wings extended from his back, and within merely a few steps, Noah transformed from an aged old man into a tall, mighty, and dignified dragon-man.
"Are you the Golden Dragon Lord?"
Seeing before him this Dragon Clan Monarch who seemed to have walked out from the most ancient mythological era, Sorlon's mind was in chaos, and he blurted out instinctively.
"Not a bad guess, but you can be even bolder."
Hearing the answer from the young man before him, Noah raised his eyebrow slightly, half-smiling as he spoke,
"He wouldn't take the time to come to you; only I would take the time to come to you."
"Are you an existence more noble than the Golden Monarch?"
The answer was obvious at this moment; the only existence more noble than the Golden Monarch on this land was just one, and only he could truly surpass that proud Golden Monarch, forcing him to bow and obey.
"Holy Dragon, Noah?!"
"Not bad, quick reactions, and not too dull."
Noah nodded gently, not giving any verbal commendation since his hints were already clear enough.
This guy guessed wrong the first time, though it was due to his caution, but it reflects the young guy's character from another perspective.
"How is this possible?"
Though he had guessed the answer, at the moment the dragon-man in front of him acknowledged it, Sorlon's first reaction was disbelief. Compared to the distant Holy Dragon Land, this was just a Barbaric Land; how could that noble Holy Dragon appear before him?
It made no logical sense, and there was no reason for it; what qualifications did he have to attract such a noble and powerful being to spend time transforming into an old man just to tease him?
"Why not? Haven't you noticed your changes lately?"
Hearing the young man's doubt, Noah chuckled.
"Changes? Is it this lightning?"
Sorlon immediately realized, raising his palm, with golden arcs of electricity dancing at his fingertips, whose unfolding power even twisted the air.
But such terrifying strength only allowed him a single strike. Therefore, even after awakening it, in his adventures outside, he would only use it when facing deadly danger; otherwise, if he used it casually, he would collapse, unable even to stand.
"You are a descendant of the Augustus family; this lightning is proof that you have awakened the Titan Bloodline."
Noah stated concisely, since having seen the characteristics of this seventh-generation Augustus, he confirmed he had no issues in that aspect, and thus Noah wouldn't waste time.
"I'm a descendant of Augustus? And I've awakened the Titan Bloodline?"
An incredulous look appeared on Sorlon's face, his mind a bit dizzy at the moment. It's not that he didn't believe it, but it was too unbelievable, challenging his common sense and shaking his worldview.
"How could I be a blood descendant of Augustus? Shouldn't all members of the Augustus family be in the Atlas Kingdom? This place is nearing the Northern Polar Ice Plain."
"The reason you were born here is that one of your ancestors settled in the ice plain; naturally, you descendants scattered here.
I hadn't noticed you all initially, but due to an awakened bloodline like yours from among this batch of Augustus remnants, I've come personally."
"I see, so I have such a background!"
Knowing his bloodline's origin, realizing that he had ancestors of such noble status, Sorlon couldn't help but break into an uncontrollable brilliant smile.
No matter how kind a person might be, upon learning they have such an incomparably noble background, which is set to bring them supreme glory and change their destiny, they find it hard to suppress the joy within.
"You might be celebrating too early; although you are an inheritor of the Titan Bloodline, you are the weakest awakener I have seen so far.
To be honest, before seeing you, I couldn't imagine an awakener could be so weak as you are, truly unexpected."
