Chapter 72: Negotiation Successful

Leo wants to become king of humanity? No problem at all. But king of this world—what does that mean? Then where would the dragons be placed? Where would she herself be placed?

The more she thought about it, the more Dragon God felt pissed. Clearly the kid in front of her couldn’t beat her and didn’t have loyal subordinates like her. Yet Leo dared to want to be her king, to make her his subject. Who gave him that courage?

“How dare you?!”

She shouted right in his face, her body immediately grew back to her dragon-like form. Her whole body’s muscles tensed up, the divine artifact appeared in her hand. Her furious gaze looked like it wanted to devour Leo alive.

This sudden reaction from her caught Leo off guard too. Michael was also a god but when he said that before, he didn’t see Michael react this strongly.

“Hold on, calm down.”

“What the hell is wrong with you? Suddenly going crazy like this makes me feel totally wronged.”

His mouth was saying that but it didn’t stop Leo from transforming into his Big Panda form again. If she really used the Seven-Hued Celestial Dragon Spear to stab him while he was in human form, the spear tip would actually pierce through his body.

This form was thick-furred and fat, the skin was also extremely tough. At least it could let him stall for a little more time. He absolutely had to convince her because she was an extremely important force for his revolutionary path.

“You still dare to ask? What was that you just said about wanting to be king of what? Is it that you didn’t hear your own words clearly, or I didn’t hear your words clearly?”

The more she talked, the tighter her hand gripped the spear in her hand. The urge to stab through that damn fat panda in front of her grew stronger and stronger.

???

I understand each thing you’re asking about separately, but when put together, does it mean something special?

Leo felt extremely confused by her irritating attitude. What he had said was indeed his goal, he hadn’t said anything wrong.

Suddenly thinking about her identity, Leo felt like he kind of understood. Dragon God isn’t simply a god; she is also a king, the supreme being of energy monsters.

Although her style of being a king was completely wild and had nothing to do with managing a country, she still considered herself a king.

Leo wanting to be king of the world, then that means being her king. For someone who once thought she was the greatest being on the continent, the idea of acknowledging someone else as king sounded extremely humiliating.

“I know you’re upset but you can’t deny that humanity was born to be the masters of this world. Me becoming king of humanity also means king of this world.

Besides, for you, is reviving the dragon race more important, or is that meaningless empty title more important? You’re a god so why do you care about who becomes king? Moreover, I’m not forcing you to be my subject, am I?”

He scrambled to use every word he could currently think of to quickly calm Dragon God down. Now if she went crazy and he didn’t have Michael to support him, losing badly to her was unavoidable.

Besides, that last sentence of his wasn’t really a lie. If he became king, his time wouldn’t be long because he didn’t have much fondness for absolute monarchy. As for what system to change to, he still didn’t know right now. First, just become king of the world.

Dragon God paused slightly, her eyebrows relaxing a bit. Thinking about it, the current kings of humanity were quite numerous, none of them had forced her to do anything, nor had they ever come to see her or her group of subordinates.

Of course, the main reason was that humanity had long since forgotten her existence as well as the dragons’. Everything to them was just folk legends, not reality.

“Well then… it’s not impossible.”

She hesitated a bit, affirming but not really affirming. Maybe she felt it still wasn’t attractive enough, or still felt a bit of discomfort.

Leo racked his brains thinking about what other condition he could offer but kept coming up blank. Suddenly the figure of someone flashed in his mind. That person had a status big enough for him to throw under the bus.

“There’s also a special condition, which is that I’ll be on your side. You can freely bully Michael… Oops, have to say train him instead. Of the three of us, he’s the weakest so he needs special attention.”

Dragon God, who was still a bit hesitant, immediately had her eyes light up. It could be said that this condition was quite attractive to her.

Michael will one day become Slaughter God, so ’training’ him and ’training’ Slaughter God aren’t much different.

“Oh right, right, right. As an elder, I can’t let him abuse that domain and end up only knowing how to run away. I will definitely train him well. Besides, he opened his mouth to me and volunteered to do a ton of stuff, this time he can’t escape.”

Actually, in her heart, there was another very strange feeling. Was it happiness? Was it feeling weird? She didn’t know either.

Slaughter God and Martial God in the past allied together to oppose her, and now she’s allying with Martial God to oppose Slaughter God. That feeling of dividing the enemy internally, turning an enemy into an ally, then betraying that other enemy, was truly too satisfying.

The smile on her face grew brighter and brighter. From silent to loud, echoing eerily.

Leo’s eyelids twitched slightly, and at the same time, he silently apologized to his comrade Michael in his heart.

’You should understand I did this for the sake of our great cause, right? Try to endure a bit, at most ten… no, twenty years and you’ll have enough strength to not have to suffer anymore.’

Of course, if Michael heard this kind of apology, he’d be furious. Why is the one benefiting Leo, the one making the deal Leo, but the one bearing the consequences him?

Just like that, a dragon and a panda shook hands, their relationship officially changing to being on the same team. Both looked toward the bright and promising future ahead.
