What? You Want to Use My Music to Hatch Dragon Eggs? - Chapter 2
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Faulkner Weir and the king’s chief mage were old rivals. Therefore, the first thing he did when they met was to tease him, “Aldrich Clifford! What brings the king’s chief mage here today?”
Clifford was not as hostile as the dean. He immediately revealed his purpose. “The king asked me to investigate the giant magic array, and also to find out who created this music that spread throughout the capital!”
Weir stroked his beard and said to him, “That’s great. Come with me to see the culprit!” The two of them followed Locke’s mentor to the dining hall.
Locke was feeding the baby dragon in his arms when he suddenly heard the footsteps of a few people.
Raising his head, he saw the dean and another unknown man dressed in gorgeous clothes approaching him. Locke immediately placed the young dragon on the table, stood up, and bowed to the dean.
Dean Weir immediately waved his hand at Locke. “There’s no need to be so polite. You are now a Dragon Knight Mage! Once you accept the award from the King, you will become an elite of the Kingdom of Dunmei! People like us who will never be able to hatch dragons will never be able to enjoy your glory!”
It seemed as if he were referring to himself, but in actuality, those words were also directed at the king’s chief mage beside him.
Once a dragon was hatched in the Kingdom of Dunmei, its owner would be respected by tens of thousands of people!
Locke’s family status had declined because no one in his family had ever awakened a dragon. Now, Locke had finally succeeded! However, he was still a little confused. This was because he had accepted the memories of the Count’s eldest son, but at the same time, he retained his own memories.
These two memories collided, causing Loke to become confused because the memories of their lives were completely different.
The only thing that remained the same was the name Locke!
After a moment of silence, Loke replied, “I will always respect your as my dean! Even if I become a Dragon Knight mage, I will never forget your teachings!”
Even though it was just a compliment, the Dean took it in and was extremely pleased.
“Alright, alright! Have you given this little dragon a name yet?”
Locke nodded. “It’s called Eliza!”
“Hmm, that’s a good name, but I’ve never seen this breed of baby dragon before!”
As he spoke, he turned to look at the king’s chief mage, Clifford beside him. Under the dean’s expectant gaze, he helplessly spread out his hands.
“No matter how long you look at me, I won’t be able to tell you its breed! I just know a lot about magic, but it’s not like I’ve seen a lot of dragons!”
By then, a crowd had gathered around but no one disturbed Eliza’s meal time.
The little dragon was grabbing the food in the bowl and eating it in big mouthfuls. When it saw that there were people staring at it, it immediately took a few pieces of pancakes and threw them at the crowd.
It said, “Do you guys want to eat it too? Since I don’t like it much, I’ll give it to you!”
When they heard that, everyone was shocked!
This was the first time they had seen a newborn talking baby dragon!
Under normal circumstances, only when the baby dragons reached adulthood would they start learning languages from humans.
However, this white little thing was fluent in human language!
Clifford immediately rubbed his bare chin and left the dining hall.
As he walked, he mumbled to himself, “Let’s just treat today as a dream!” He left the academy quickly without looking back.
The dean was shell-shocked and extremely puzzled as well!
After Locke’s mentor and the dean ate the pancakes in shock, they turned to leave the dining hall.
Before leaving, the dean reminded Locke to attend the award ceremony the next day.
What happened today did not end there. All over the world, people were speculating about what had happened at the Kingdom of Dunmei.
The Hanos Science and Technology Tower was the most famous magic technology research center in the Faust Dragon Continent. Not only did it have the most cutting-edge equipment and weapons manufacturing technology, it was also headed by the most powerful High Priest in the world.
The appearance of the enormous magic array attracted the attention of Hanos.
As the most powerful mage in the continent, he was proficient in all types of magic in the world. Only today did he realize that there was a magic array that he had never seen before.
Therefore, he stood at the top of the tower and began to cast his divination spell.
All the magical laws of the world appeared around him, and he soon saw them!
“Victory and Hope!
“You’ve finally appeared! As expected of you!”
As he spoke, blood splurt out of Hanos’ mouth, because the laws of the prophecy were too great.
It was so great that the magic essence in his body was depleted completely, causing him to collapse! As he was on the verge of death, Hanos wrote a few words on the ground with his blood: I saw Victory!
The other people in the tower sensed Hanos’s life force slipping away, and they hurried up to the top of the tower.
A young woman was the first to reach Hanos’s side. She had wanted to meet her grandfather before he took his last breath.
However, it was too late!
A loud and tearful cry echoed at the top of the tower. Soon, more people arrived at the scene. They all took off their magician hats and began to mourn for the strongest human mage in the history of the human race.
This day was the happiest and saddest day for the Kingdom of Dunmei.
The people rejoiced that a new dragon species had appeared for the first time in a thousand years in the Kingdom of Dunmei. Furthermore, it was a young dragon that could speak.
On the other hand, they were extremely saddened that the high priest of the Kingdom of Dunmei had died on the top of the Hanos Science and Technology Tower because of a prophecy.
The outcome of the prophecy was obvious.
Now that the pillar who had been keeping the Kingdom of Dunmei safe and stable for a hundred years had collapsed and passed on, the king was overcome with frustration. He lost his appetite and focused on how to stabilize and protect the Kingdom of Dunmei after Hanos’s death!
Because of Hanos’s existence since a hundred years ago, the surrounding kingdoms did not dare to invade the Kingdom of Dunmei. However, all these were about to change now.
As he thought about it, he roared in frustration in his room, “What should I do now?!”
After letting out his frustration, he picked up the documents on the table and studied the report on Reynolds Locke and the hatching of his young dragon.
He could not help but link Hanos’s final prophecy with Locke’s previous dragon hatching success.
“Could the Victory he saw refer to Locke?”
After much consideration, the king could only think of this! The timing was just too uncanny, as the two events happened on the same day.
This was definitely not a coincidence!
He immediately called his chief mage over. “Protect Locke first. Protect him in secret! After the high priest’s funeral, I want to meet him in private!”
After receiving the order, Clifford immediately set off for the academy dormitory..
