65 Silver Dragon Captive, Reunion! (Double Update)
The next day, Roswiser slowly opened her eyes.
Leon was gone, probably off playing with Moon.
Perfect! That meant she could continue to rest in peace and quiet.
She sat up, leaning against the headboard, raised her hand, and attempted to gather some magical energy.
Feeling the surge of magical power flooding through her, Roswiser couldn’t help but smirk, “Looks like I underestimated myself. Who knew I’d recover this quickly?”
Maybe it had something to do with the wild shenanigans Leon put her through last night.
You know what they say: you break it, you put it back together—especially true when you’re a Dragon King!
Roswiser slowly closed her eyes to meditate, channeling her magical energy to speed up her recovery.
About half an hour later, Anna barged in.
“Sorry to interrupt, Your Majesty.”
Anna stepped forward, bowing gracefully. “I’m here to check on you and see how your recovery is going.”
“Sure thing.”
Anna sat down beside the bed, cradled Roswiser’s left hand, and instantly, shimmering green magical energy flickered around them.
A moment later, Anna released Roswiser’s hand, her face beaming with joy, “You’re almost fully recovered! Just drink some soup and medicine, and you’ll be good as new by tonight.”
“For a Dragon King’s body, this little issue is just a formality. No need to fuss over it.”
Anna chuckled, “As you say, Your Majesty! I’ll go share this good news with His Royal Highness and the Princess.”
“Wait, hold up.”
Roswiser’s eyes darted, and a mischievous feeling churned in her belly, “Don’t tell Leon just yet. I want him to fuss over me a bit longer. If you see him, just tell him I need to lie down for another week.”
Anna paused, then covered her mouth, giggling, “Got it, Your Majesty. I understand completely.”
Roswiser lowered her eyelids, softly responding, “Uh-huh… Then you can go handle other things.”
“Right, Your Majesty. Don’t forget to rest and drink plenty of water.”
“Yeah.”
After Anna bowed and left, Roswiser continued to focus on her recovery.
Meanwhile, in the courtyard, Leon was busy teaching Moon the basics of magic control.
Earlier that morning, Moon had come to him, saying she wanted to learn some simple magic.
Leon had told her she was too young and still not of age to learn magic.
But Moon pouted, saying, “But my sister is already off to school! I don’t want to be left behind!”
Oh, the perks of having two kids—no need to push them; they just “compete” with each other and improve on their own.
Hearing Moon’s plea, Leon relented and started teaching her some basic magical operations.
Moon may not be as talented as Noia, but she was picking things up quickly.
In just a few hours, she was able to draw out her magical energy.
They sat on a bench, sipping sports drinks prepared by the maids.
“Hey, Dad,” Moon slurped loudly from her cup.
“What is it?”
“Are you and Mom’s wounds still itchy?”
Leon froze, “Wounds?”
Slurp slurp slurp—
Moon finished her drink, lifted her head to look at Leon, “Yeah! I saw you both lying in bed yesterday, and the window was open. I was worried you’d catch a cold, so I thought I’d cover you with a blanket. But when I did, I noticed you had a bunch of little red dot wounds—just like the ones I got when bugs bit me, and they were super itchy!”
Little red dots…
Uh oh—
Could she be referring to… strawberry marks?
Leon quietly turned his head away, “It’s, uh, not too itchy anymore.”
“Ah-ha! Moon’s deduction was right! I figured out it was bug bites immediately!”
Her little tuft of hair bobbed, and her tail proudly waved behind her, “It’s all thanks to the ointment I put on you guys!”
Leon felt a mix of exasperation and pride, patting his daughter’s head, “Good job, Moon, well done.”
Moon beamed with pride and promptly jumped off the bench. “Dad, let’s practice magic some more!”
“Alright.”
Leon didn’t return to the room until around four or five in the afternoon.
As the golden sunset poured through the window, the cool evening breeze rustled the bed curtains.
On the bed, the silver-haired beauty lounged against the headboard, her eyes slightly closed, breathing evenly.
Her face was still pale, and fatigue was evident on her brow.
Hearing footsteps, she cracked her eyes open a sliver.
Upon seeing Leon, she promptly shut them again.
Looks like she had given up on resisting what was about to happen.
Leon bit his lip, hesitating.
After two days of being put through the wringer, he’d had his fill of torturing Roswiser.
He’d already dished out most of the “revenge” he had in mind.
Besides, his own human body couldn’t withstand this level of bombardment.
He really couldn’t keep up with a dragon!
During the day, he ran into Anna, who told him that Roswiser’s recovery would take at least another week.
So… with six days to spare, why bother with just one more night?
Yeah, let her rest for now; they both could use a break.
With that thought, Leon turned to leave.
“What’s the rush? You leaving already?”
Leon stopped in his tracks, turning to face Roswiser.
“Hmph, is that a problem, Dragon Slayer? After just two days, you’re already soft? I thought you were more formidable. Guess I was mistaken.”
For a moment, Leon wondered if he’d fallen into an alternate reality.
Who was really the one who couldn’t get out of bed here?
Oh right, that would be her!
Seeing that Leon was silent, Roswiser pushed her luck further, “I wanted to see the might of the Empire’s strongest Dragon Slayer, and all I got was… pfft, like playing house with kids. So boring.”
Leon frowned, his voice deepening, “Guess I was wrong about you being tired tonight. looks like your mouth is all tough; I bet your body is pretty hard too, huh?”
Roswiser kicked off the covers, revealing her enchanting figure to Leon, “Come on then, show me what you’ve got left.”
“You’re going to regret this, Roswiser.”
“I’ve never regretted anything.”
Leon raised a hand to shut the bedroom door and locked it.
Then he stepped toward the large bed, slowly removing his clothes one by one.
There’s really no need to show mercy for this dragon lady.
He climbed onto the bed, looking down at the beauty beneath him, coolly stating, “Captives should keep quiet, Your Majesty.”
Roswiser looked up at Leon with a coy smile, saying nothing in response.
He held her chin, and the Dragon Pattern glimmered.
But just as Leon was about to move to the next step, he felt something slippery and cold wrapping around his waist.
Looking down, he was shocked to see Roswiser’s tail!
In the next moment, it hit him.
However, it was too late.
With a flick of her tail, Roswiser sent Leon flying onto the bed and effortlessly flipped over, switching from guest to host in an instant.
“Roswiser, you!…”
“Shhh~~”
The Silver Dragon Queen tilted her head back, leisurely gathering her long hair, then slowly lowered her gaze, her eyes shimmering with mischief. “Captives should keep quiet, my dear, valiant Dragon Slayer~”
