From his identity, it was perhaps not too difficult to guess his motive for coming to Dragon Island.
What David admired was the other party’s decisiveness. Despite relying on extrely limited conjecture, they had skillfully used this point to eliminate, or even transfer, the crisis of a belief vacuum. This crisis affected not only Dragon Island but all tal Dragons.
For this purpose, the Silver Dragon King did not hesitate to directly invoke the na of the Chromatic Dragon Queen Tiamat to demonstrate the truth to all the tal Dragons.
Such boldness could only be described as resolute.
David couldn’t help but crack a smile, peering deeply at the Silver Dragon King as he began to reveal a secret that was bound to shock the entire Dragon Race:
"Indeed, the Chromatic Dragon Queen Tiamat and the Platinum Dragon God Bahamut disappeared after their battle in the Grey Wilderness.
"At the sa ti, the Decaying Dragon God fell.
"And now, the Evil Scale Fortress, and the Death Domains of the Dragon Race, are both temporarily overseen by my mother, the mighty goddess Pafila."
Since the Silver Dragon King had shown him respect, David reciprocated in kind. He opted not to reveal in front of all the tal Dragons how the Platinum Dragon God Bahamut had engineered the Decaying Dragon God’s demise to acquire its domain. This left so room for maneuver.
He also threw out his own background: his dear mom. This was a clear ssage to the tal Dragons plotting against him—they should weigh their own standing carefully before contemplating if they could withstand being turned to ash by a Dragon God.
These three explosive pieces of news battered the eardrums and nerves of every tal Dragon present.
Watching the tal Dragons turn into dumbfounded fools, Attilicia, the ’Dragon God’s First,’ couldn’t help but raise her neck and flick her tail. She displayed a sense of shared glory, as if she had completely forgotten the humiliation and despair of Pafila ruthlessly abusing her in the past.
"So, it is true... Thank you for your candor. This is indeed crucial information we urgently needed to confirm, and a special event our Dragon Race must treat with the utmost caution." The Silver Dragon King’s expression showed he had expected as much. After a mont of silence, he took another deep look at David and then said,
"So, David Uthos, you have co with your entire family. What is your request? In return for this key information, I am willing to fulfill any request that does not conflict with the principles of our tal Dragons."
Seeing that he finally got the commitnt he was looking for, David of course did not hesitate to be straightforward. As the Silver Dragon King said, it was a matter of exchange and deserved reciprocation:
"I hope Dragon Island can protect the safety of my sister and three children’s lives and grant them the sa education and freedom as other tal Dragons on the island."
"Granted."
The Silver Dragon King replied without a hint of hesitation, even going a step further:
"They will be treated just like my own daughter."
The dragons erupted into an uproar.
Their expressions were likely similar to those on Blue Star. Imagine the reaction there if a foreign Long Aotian not only secured a hefty scholarship at their university but, to top it all off, even had two female students assigned as study companions!
What kind of treatnt was this? It was utterly preposterous!
With his concerns for his family’s future allayed, David breathed a slight sigh of relief. This was a personal matter; next ca official business.
David looked towards the Silver Dragon King and spoke solemnly:
"In three years, The Slaying King Star will reach the Pri Material Plane.
"According to the plan of my sovereign goddess Tiamat, we will shatter The Slaying King Star and reclaim the Pri Material Plane of Toriel after three years."
As these words were spoken, the tal Dragons, who should have been numbed by the day’s many shocks, involuntarily exclaid anew.
The reason was simple: The Slaying King Star was utterly infamous among dragons.
The Chromatic Dragon Queen has been scheming sothing big in secrecy!
David surveyed the agitated dragons and continued:
"This matter concerns the rise and fall of our entire Dragon Race. I hope that when the ti cos, Your Majesty will call upon the tal Dragons of Dragon Island to attack the Elf Royal Court with full force. This would impede elven reinforcents to Toriel.
"Of course, I understand Your Majesty’s concerns.
"Therefore, this is a proposal, contingent upon the successful destruction of The Slaying King Star."
A proposal, not a plea.
For a mont, the entire Dragon Court fell so silent one could hear a pin drop.
All eyes were unanimously fixed on the Silver Dragon King seated above.
Their eyes were filled with anticipation.
