Evil Dragon: The young dragon I picked up keeps planning on becoming an empress

I hope the medicine from the Evil Dragon doesn't kill anyone.

Another question arises, does the Evil Dragon Lance have a pharmacist qualification certificate?

In the Human World, pharmacists all have practicing licenses, and those without a license might end up in jail if they accidentally cause a patient's death.

Not only might they end up in jail, but they also have to pay compensation.

If I drink the Evil Dragon Lance's medicine and something goes wrong, not only does he have no money to compensate me, he also bears no responsibility.

Lucia suddenly felt a little uneasy, stranded on this deserted island in the sea; if she really had a problem with the medicine, there wouldn't be any court apothecaries to save her.

She prayed that the irresponsible Evil Dragon was an experienced pharmacist.

He often transformed into a human to play in the Human World and had even been a member of a hero squad; he should be relatively reliable, otherwise, the heroes would not have recruited him as one of their own.

"Lance… Lance… your medicine… it won't harm me, will it?"

Despite having reassured herself, Lucia still felt uneasy and mustered the courage to ask.

It concerned her life, so she would accept the Evil Dragon's anger in exchange for an answer.

"It won't, I have pharmacist certificates issued by various kingdoms and temples of the Human World."

Lance took out a stack of certificates from the Vajra Ring hanging on his horn.

Lucia was somewhat stunned upon seeing the stack of certificates in Lance's dragon claw.

Advanced Swordsmanship Certificate.

Advanced Wizard Certificate.

Advanced Martial Artist Certificate.

Advanced Pharmacist Certificate.

Advanced...

How unfocused must you be to obtain so many certificates?

Wouldn't it be better to abduct a few princesses to fall in love with during the time spent on earning these certificates?

What's the point of having so many certificates?

Isn't he still single after several thousand years?

Lucia's eyes turned red with envy; if she were as outstanding as the Evil Dragon, even Giant Dragons would beg her to sign a Dragon Knight contract.

She could confidently drink the Evil Dragon's medicine now.

"I definitely want to be as excellent as you, Lance, in the future."

"Try hard, and aim to be even more excellent than me."

"...That's a bit difficult."

Lance placed the certificates back into the Vajra Ring.

He wondered if Dragon Island had various certifications as well; if so, he wanted to get certified there too.

"It's okay not to breathe Dragon's Breath for now, but you need to know the Dragon Chant."

"I think my Dragon Chant... is passably okay..."

Huh, bold claim.

A Dragon Chant that sounds like a wolf howling dares to be called passable?

"Do you want to listen to my Dragon Chant?"

"Sure."

Without making any special effort to build up power, Lance casually opened his mouth and roared, boiling the seawater and causing fish to float up.

"Do you hear the difference between my Dragon Chant and yours?"

Lucia rolled her eyes back and fell straight onto the beach.

Oops, I didn't control the intensity properly.

Seeing the fainted Young Dragon, Lance immediately crouched down and placed his dragon claw in front of Lucia's nose to check if the little one was still breathing.

Thankfully, there was breath.

She wasn't scared to death by his Dragon Chant.

She was merely scared into fainting.

His Dragon Chant's oppressive power was too strong, it could even shock the soul.

If he were angry, the strong individuals in the Human World would experience temporary stupor and terror upon hearing his Dragon Chant.

The strength of Lucia's Young Dragon soul, as well as her mental resilience, weren't too great.

It was normal for her to faint from his Dragon Chant.

It's good she wasn't scared to death.

Young Dragons that grow up eating field mice tend to be timid.

Lance took out a faintly glowing Water Source Scroll from the Vajra Ring hanging on his horn.

To awaken the Young Dragon, it would be direct to splash water on her.

Just tear open the Water Source Scroll and throw it onto the Young Dragon.

However, it seems that using a Water Source Scroll isn't strictly necessary to wake up a Young Dragon.

The Water Source Scroll is quite expensive.

Lance put away the Water Source Scroll and, with a flick of his dragon tail, he whipped the fainted Young Dragon lying on the beach into the sea.

The surface of the water splashed.

Gurgle, gurgle~~~

Gurgle gurgle~~~

Accompanied by a series of bubbles, Young Dragon Lucia sank into the sea...

Wow——

After gulping down several mouthfuls of seawater, Lucia woke from unconsciousness to find herself surrounded by water and flailed about in a panic.

She had not yet become the Emperor of the Farolan Empire; she couldn't afford to drown.

Fortunately, she had learned to dive and swim when she was seven or eight years old.

With a splash, Lucia's bald, purple dragon head appeared in Lance's line of sight.

Seeing Lance, Lucia started swimming toward him using a doggy paddle.

Doggy paddle?

Why would a young dragon swim using a doggy paddle?

Giant Dragons merely need to wiggle their tails gently to swim; there's no need for them to doggy paddle.

Lucia had learned to howl following wolves.

Was it possible she learned to swim by imitating dogs?

Could Lucia's upbringing have been slightly harsh?

Having encountered her in the skies above the Human Empire yesterday, could it be that she grew tired of fending for herself and sought someone to take care of her?

"Cough... cough cough.... Lance... how did I end up in the sea?"

Once ashore, Lucia came up to Lance and coughed a few times, puzzled as to why she had ended up in the sea.

"My back... seems to hurt a little too."

"You passed out and fell into the sea."

Passed out in the sea?

Lucia touched her lower back, which was aching slightly, grimacing as she thought it over, and indeed it seemed she had fainted.

Knocked out by the roar of Evil Dragon Lance.

"Then why does my back hurt a bit?"

"You probably hit a relatively hard rock as you passed out."

"Oh... so that's what happened."

Lucia believed him, as Evil Dragon Lance wouldn't lie to her.

"Listen to my Dragon's Breath in the morning from now on."

"Ah? How many times will I have to pass out?"

"When you can hear my Dragon's Breath without fainting, then you'll know you've gotten stronger. At the very least, you won't be easily intimidated by the aura, roar, or pressure of powerful opponents in battle."

The road to becoming stronger for Young Dragon Lucia still stretched before her.

Lance now had a better understanding of Lucia's offensive power.

Against slightly stronger humans, she's practically useless in battle.

Against ordinary people, she's a somewhat frightening young dragon.

"Then I'll listen, I want to become as strong an Evil... entity as you, Lance!"

Once she became as strong as Evil Dragon Lance and returned to the Farolan Empire, she could easily sweep aside the knights loyal to that detestable Princess Asina with a flick of her tail.

Just one roar might be enough to faint one or two legions.

Gurgle gurgle...

Feeling embarrassed, Lucia covered her belly with a dragon claw; she seemed to be hungry... yearning for something to eat...

"Hungry?"

"A little."

"Let's go then, breakfast time. What would you like to eat?"

"Roasted beast leg."

"Eating roasted beast leg this early isn't healthy; have some porridge."

"I want meat..."

"I'll make you meat-filled buns."

Meat-filled buns?

Meatballs?

Whatever, as long as it's meat, she wanted to eat meat.

........

In the Human World, within the Farolan Empire, capital city.

Royal Garden.

Princess Asina, with her brilliant blue hair, sat on a bench, holding a book.

Standing before her was a female knight clad in silver armor and a wizard fully shrouded in a black robe.

"The Evil Dragon who kidnapped my worthless younger sister, have you found any records of him in the historical scrolls?"

"No, we've gone through all the historical records related to Evil Dragons, and there's absolutely no information about that one."

"Could it be a Giant Dragon that recently escaped from Dragon Island?"

Princess Asina closed the book in her hands and turned to Eva, the dark wizard who preferred to hide her true face beneath her robe.

"I don't know, Princess Asina. Could you possibly borrow the books related to Evil Dragons from all the major temples in the capital? We might be able to find some information about that Evil Dragon in the temple archives."
