Global Evolution: Summoning a Dragon from the Start - Chapter 17

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Whitey naturally sensed something and turned around to look at River, his face filled with doubt.

“Sir! Please order me to kill this young dragon!”

Chris was stunned.

What was going on?

But when Chris thought of the description of River, he hurried to the middle of the woman and dragon.

“River, is there a misunderstanding?”

“Whitey is my summoned creature. He’s not some evil dragon!”

Hearing this, River’s expression did not relax. This was the first time she came to this world.

If not for the inexplicable sense of obedience she felt towards Chris, she would have definitely cut down the dragon!

Even at the cost of her life!

That was because she was a human who had once fought with a dragon!

“Sir, you may not understand, but the level of the dragon’s understanding of magic is not a realm that we humans can easily touch.”

“Back then, the dragon I saw in the Land of Runes was nurtured from a young age. After it became an adult dragon, it started to go berserk!”

Upon hearing this, Chris was stunned for a moment. Beside him, Mott was also ready to fight.

The battle between Whitey and the two new followers seemed to be on the verge of breaking out!

Not only Mott, even Chris was dumbfounded.

Wasn’t Whitey 100% loyal to him?

River’s intentions did not seem to be ill. However, he could not just watch as River killed Whitey, right?

“River, if I am not wrong, when the Empire invaded Elysia, the adult storm dragon went berserk because it touched an alchemical poison, right? An adult dragon had no chance of shaking off such a magic disturbance.”

“Moreover, according to this old man’s knowledge, even the magic of the Dragon Races is unable to break the laws of this world. After all, this is the second time this old man has come to this world.”

“And Mott over there. I know all about you.”

As the two sides confronted each other, a voice broke the silence.

River turned to Dolan in disbelief…

The speaker was none other than the number one human blacksmith—Dolan. Suddenly, as if struck by a sudden thought, River felt a sharp pain in her head.

[Unlocking River’s hidden story. Do you wish to read it?]

[Yes] [No]

With his previous doubts, Chris chose yes.

After all, it was a good thing to be able to understand the power of magic in this world.

Suddenly, a stream of information flooded Chris’s mind.

When Chris learned these hidden stories, he finally understood the reason for River’s actions!

Back then.

The Empire that River was in invaded the border Elysia to expand their territory.

Except Elysia wasn’t like other countries.

There were countless dragon tamers and sects in this country.

The Empire’s army was unable to take it down.

And so, without River’s permission, the Empire dropped alchemical poisons on Elysia.

The emergence of alchemical poisons had awakened the Storm Dragon that the Dragon Tamer family had served all year round…

River’s Rune Sword was also the result of the battle with the Storm Dragon. Although she killed the dragon for the Empire, the rune sword broke.

Moreover, countless comrades died not due to the dragon, but due to the alchemical poison that the Empire released…

The battle with the storm dragon had caused much of her memories to disappear.

Apart from her name and the battle scene with the dragon, she knew nothing else.

Through the news from the Empire, she only knew that the evil dragon destroyed the Empire’s expedition army.

And River was the Imperial Dragon Slayer…

Therefore, when she was rescued by the Empire, there was only endless enmity towards the dragon in her mind, as well as an indescribable sense of guilt. This sense of guilt entangled her for an unknown period of time.

But River had no idea why she felt the guilt…

Dolan’s words made her recall everything!

This sense of guilt was the glory of being crowned the Dragon Slayer by the Empire!

That was because the awakening of the dragon was caused by the Empire!

An adult Storm Dragon had no chance of escaping from the magic disturbance caused by the alchemical poison!

The Empire that she had once revered had actually chosen to abandon them at the critical moment!

The key was that the person who saved her when she was unconscious was not someone from the Empire, but an old man from Elysia!

As for why River appeared in the Empire after she woke up, it was obvious.

After all, how could an Empire that advocated power allow a swordsman who could rival a dragon to appear in Elysia?

All at once, Chris understood. So did River.

River remembered everything that happened back then!

Looking at Whitey in front of her, River, who seemed to have woken up from a dream, retracted her broken rune sword and bowed to Chris.

“Thank you, Master Dolan and Sir Chris. You helped me recall all of this.” River saluted Chris and said righteously, “From today onwards, River will definitely follow all of Sir’s orders, even if it means sacrificing my life.”

If Chris hadn’t summoned River here, she might never have known about this!

However, at the same time, a strong sense of guilt arose from her heart.

Now River was convinced that this was her path to forgiveness. Furthermore, she felt an inexplicable sense of obedience towards Chris.

Chris heaved a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, there was Master Dolan.

From his words, Chris learned something very important.

Master Dolan had actually appeared in this world before. No wonder he knew so much!

It seemed that in the future, not only could he ask him questions related to forging, but could also ask him about other things related to this world!

However, he should solve the issue of their meal now.

Under Chris and Whitey’s lead, they arrived at the villa and started a barbecue.

In the base, Chris took out the spoils of war from yesterday.

It was the meat of those ferocious beasts.

When Whitey saw the meat, its eyes widened.

Mott and Dolan also sat quietly. They had originally wanted to help, but when they saw River rushing forward, they did not interfere.

Moreover, it seemed that River had superb culinary skills!

River’s skillful movements and precise control of time surprised Chris.

He would burn the meat sometimes, but River did not make any such mistakes!

Good lord!

He had not only summoned a swordsman, he also got a chef!
