Chapter 15: with translation of chapter title

The dragon mother followed the Dragon Fang Vanguard squad leader named 'Tabares' as he left, heading toward the Emerald Dream where the Emerald Dragon Queen Ysera resides.

Yes, the giant city built from plant giant trees where Lai Ang and the others are located is not actually the true Emerald Dream, but is called 'Emerald City'.

The true Emerald Dream exists in an alternate plane attached to the world.

There, it is also the true core, where many powerful chromatic evil dragons reside.

"Your Highnesses, please follow me."

The hyena-people guard who had been waiting nearby only approached Lai Ang and the others after the black dragon and the Dragon Fang Vanguard captain had left, speaking respectfully.

Lai Ang glanced at this hyena-people guard wearing half-body light armor, and also sensed a faint pressure emanating from him.

Yet another expert whose strength far surpasses Lai Ang's.

"Fourth rank or fifth rank?" Lai Ang thought to himself.

However, this is clearly not an ordinary hyena-people guard; the guard's exquisite light armor and the enchanted spear forged from refined steel all indicate that his status is not low.

As the conversation began, Lai Ang also learned this hyena-people's identity: the captain of the East Gate guard of Emerald City, a hyena-people expert who cultivates battle qi.

"We have arrived; this will be your residence from now on, Your Highnesses, and someone will come to receive you shortly." The hyena-people guard captain said with a polite smile, then turned and strode back the way he came, preparing to return to his post.

He left the three young dragons waiting outside a massive circular building.

Above the massive building, four large characters were carved in dragon script: Emerald Academy.

"Academy." Lai Ang stared at those four characters, and at the various peoples and monsters constantly entering and exiting the academy gates, a strange color flickered in his dragon eyes.

Are these three here to receive 'education'?? A figure flashed by and arrived before the three young dragons still in a dazed state.

He was a draconic humanoid with green dragon blood.

No, Lai Ang smelled a pure green dragon aura from him.

This is a green dragon that has taken on a draconic humanoid form.

"You three little ones, follow me, don't resist." The green dragon in draconic humanoid form glanced at them lightly, waved his hand, magical energy surged, and then the four of them vanished from this place.

Boom~!

The three young dragons fell from several meters in the air, unlike Ai Di and Sai Jia who got dazed from the fall; Lai Ang promptly steadied his dragon body and warily looked around.

"Your mental strength is not bad." A voice of praise came from the green dragon beside him.

"My name is Rad; from now on I will be your teacher."

"And this is where you will grow and train from now on."

Lai Ang followed the gaze of the green dragon Rad and saw, across the small river in the distance, a row of castles.

Unlike ordinary castles, these have no covering above them.

"That is the dragon keep; the little ones all live inside."

"Alright, first get familiar with the environment yourselves; I'm sure your seniors will teach you the rules here properly." The green dragon Rad smiled, and his figure vanished here.

Once again, the three young dragons were left staring at each other.

"Big brother Lai Ang, what should we do next?"

Ai Di turned his gaze to Lai Ang, and Sai Jia likewise looked over, both handing over the decision to their elder brother.

Lai Ang gazed at the distant dragon keep, then turned his head to look back behind him.

The place they are currently in should still be inside the Emerald Academy.

"Did they use spatial magic?" Lai Ang speculated. After all, just the area where the dragon keep is located already stretches beyond sight, and while the Emerald Academy looks huge from the outside, it couldn't possibly be this huge.

Obviously, some kind of high-level spatial magic was used to 'expand' the academy's internal space.

"Let's first find an empty dragon keep to stay in, then we'll talk." Lai Ang pondered for a moment, then spoke.

However, seeing the mischievous smile that the green dragon Rad, who claimed to be their teacher, showed when he left, Lai Ang did not hold out hope for this.

He felt that a battle might be unavoidable.

After all, even if it bears the name of an academy, it is ultimately a place for educating monsters and evil dragon hatchlings, so its methods cannot be very benevolent.

Lai Ang took the lead and flew toward the dragon keep ahead.

In the process, he roughly counted and found that there are only twelve dragon keeps here.

Each dragon keep is spaced far apart, appearing as if they do not interfere with one another.

At that moment, Ai Di noticed a shadow flash in the forest to the left and quickly called out to Lai Ang.

"There's movement over there." Ai Di warned, quite vigilant.

Lai Ang looked in the direction Ai Di indicated, without hesitation, chanted a spell, and after nearly twenty seconds a phantom huge eye appeared before him.

"Go!" Lai Ang controlled the mage's eye and sent it forward.

Soon, under the scrutiny of the mage's eye, Lai Ang saw what the figure Ai Di mentioned was.

It was a white dragon.

More precisely, it was a white dragon hatchling, about the same size as Sai Jia.

At that moment, the white dragon hatchling was happily gnawing on a fresh fish just caught from the river, its sharp teeth tearing at the flesh.

"It's a white dragon hatchling." Lai Ang turned his head and said to his two younger brothers.

"Come on, let's go take a look."

By the forest near the small river, Pana was tearing into the fresh fish she had just caught, looking very pleased.

However, if you ignore the scars all over her body that have not yet healed, and the environment she is in, this scene would actually seem quite normal.

Pana finished eating the fish and was about to go to sleep for a rest when she suddenly noticed that the sunlight before her had vanished, and a shadow was cast down.

She looked up in a dazed, cute manner and saw two fierce black dragon hatchlings descending toward her position.

Almost instinctively, Pana turned her body, vibrated her somewhat damaged dragon wings behind her, and flew low and fast toward the nearby river, appearing utterly panicked and directionless.

With a bang, another black dragon hatchling landed in front of Pana, blocking her escape route.

The one blocking this female white dragon hatchling was none other than Lai Ang.

It looked at this female white dragon hatchling covered head to toe in wounds, its expression somewhat unpleasant.

Just now, the Mage's Eye couldn't see clearly through the forest; I didn't expect this female white dragon hatchling to be so miserable.

"Don't hit me, don't hit me, I didn't approach the Dragon Fortress, I didn't"

The female white dragon hatchling before it kept retreating in fear, but behind it, Ai Di and Sai Jia landed with a boom, completely blocking all its escape routes.

"We mean no harm; we just want to understand the situation here." Lai Ang said in a softened tone.

It realized that this so-called Emerald Academy was definitely not a good place! (End of chapter)
