Chapter 40: Formal Acquaintance!

Viktor froze for a moment, then looked in the direction of the voice and saw that O was still floating on the surface of the water like a big fluttering moth!

Then he looked at the shore again, not far from Dinnet, and there stood the same ‘O’!

The memory, hidden in the depths of his mind, surfaced once more.

Veit's face changed abruptly, then he leapt out of the water and blocked between that golden dragon and Dinnet.

‘It's you!’

Seeing Veit take a defensive stance, the other dragons finally reacted.

Dinnet ran to Veit's side and let out a low roar, his wings spreading out as he looked warily at the golden dragon across the room.

And Ao and Celine followed Vette's example, first rushing out of the water, then slightly rusty flapping their water-soaked wings, similarly coming to Vette's side, and then ...... there was no more then!

The four dragons simultaneously turned their heads to look into the river, only to see that Billy was trying to leave the surface of the water like Veit and the others, but, due to his movements being too clumsy, he had already sunk towards the bottom of the river at this point, with only his tail remaining stubbornly upright on the surface of the river as he slowly sank!

Veit slapped his forehead!

‘You guys watch her, I'll go save him!’

With that, Veit plunged headlong into the river.

As Veit left, Celine and the others glanced at each other, then once again looked at the golden dragon across the river.

Within their gazes, there was a tinge of vigilance but not much, and more curiosity towards the other party!

Celine hesitated for a moment and took the lead, ‘My name is Celine, Sacred Dragon, and you?’

Hearing Celine's words, Isha, who had been searching for an escape route, froze for a moment, then turned her head to look at Celine.

The milky white body, though not as dazzling as her golden colour, gave off a gentle shimmering light that made the dragon feel a sense of closeness.

‘You're a female dragon too!’

Cold Knowledge: all the dragons in the giant dragon species, between the same type, the male and female are not too obvious signs, and can only be recognised by their speaking voice!

After a pause, Isha said in a cheerful voice, ‘Isha, my name, you were with that bad boy, I thought you were also a stupid, male dragon full of nothing but violence!’

Ao frowned and was about to retort when a large splash of water kicked up from the water behind him!

Veit had one claw cupping Billy's mouth, while the other was grasping the raised clump of crystal on his back, not to mention the fact that it looked like crystal, but in terms of hardness, it was nothing less than dragon scales!

Throwing Billy on the ground, Veit then breathed a sigh of relief, seeing the crowd looking at him, Veit said helplessly: ‘’This guy couldn't control his mouth in the water, I could only help him close it, good thing I reacted quickly, he didn't drink much water!

As for fainting ...... I knocked him out, the guy struggled too much.’

After a pause, Veit looked at Isha again, his brows furrowed.

‘You guys be careful, this guy likes to sneak attack with his spit!’

Hearing this, the good mood that Isha had just had was instantly destroyed!

Without the slightest hesitation, she then crouched down, her mouth slightly opened, and bright flames gushed out from the depths of her throat, while her eyes stared at Veit in death!

On the other side, Vettel, who had been taken as a target, was not weak either, and similarly bent down, although it wasn't the kind of streamlined dragon body that Dinnet had, the silver dragon was also a dragon race that was known for its agility.

Of course, Veit didn't forget Winters' instructions and didn't mean to use his dragon's breath.

But Veit was confident that as long as the other party dared to make a move, he would be able to pounce over and subdue him as fast as he could!

Seeing that the two dragons were on the verge of fighting, Celine hurriedly spoke out.

‘Wait, don't make a move first, I think there's some kind of misunderstanding between you guys? Let's sit down and talk first!’

Hearing Celine's words, Isha's eyes flashed with a flash of hesitation before she stopped the brewing of her dragon's breath, however, she was still vigilantly looking at Veit.

‘I don't really think there's any misunderstanding, he was the one who tracked me down first!’

Veit froze for a moment.

‘Who tracked you, I merely recognised you as Ao, that's why I chased you down, and after I chased you down, before I could stand still, you gave me a spit straight away!’

‘O?

It's that guy over there, right!

Open your eyes wide and take a good look, where are we alike?

His dragon scale brightness is so much lower than mine, he's obviously a golden dragon, but he doesn't even take care of his scales properly, and he still has the nerve to call himself a golden dragon!’

Celine slapped her forehead.

Good lord, you are truly tongue-tied!

Glancing towards Ao's side, sure enough, Ao's gaze towards Isa had taken on a touch of hostility.

‘Well, you don't need to say any more, I can tell you very clearly that you're just misunderstanding, Veit suffers from a condition called face blindness!

Like you and Ao, he has absolutely no way to tell the difference between you!’

Saying that, Celine didn't care if Isha believed her or not, and turned to Veit.

‘Veit, we didn't come out here to fight!’

At those words, Veit hesitated for a moment, put away his guarded stance, and then looked at Ao.

‘O, let's get on with it!’

With that, Veit turned back to Billy, who was sprawled out behind him playing dead.

‘If you don't want to learn, no dragon will force you!’

Hearing this, Billy instantly came to life!

‘Really?’

Veit nodded helplessly.

‘If you can stand it, we'll play inside the water while you can only watch from the shore!’

Upon hearing this, Billy instantly lost his spirit.

He then crawled towards the river a little bit, the kind that only moved his two front paws!

But he at least got into the water, although he quickly sank again is all!

Veit helplessly dove into the water and propped him up again, then took a step at a time to teach.

Ao was able to float in the water, but was a little less agile, and could only practise silently as a dragon.

Saeryn watched all this in her eyes and helplessly turned her head to look at Isha.

Instead, she saw Isha looking at Veit with a bewildered expression.

‘He won't trouble you for a while, let me introduce you, she's Dinnet!’

‘Hello!’

‘Hello, nice to meet you!’

The words were said, but Isha's gaze, however, always flicked towards Viktor's side.

Luckily, Dinnet wasn't concerned about that, and just smiled, and headed towards the river, it was still a bit unsafe to have Veit, a dragon, watching two guys who couldn't water!

Noticing that Dinnet left, Isha then realised that she had just done something wrong, however, she didn't know what to say, and could only apprehensively cast her gaze for help towards Saeryn!

Seeing this, Celine suddenly realised that Veit's side should have misunderstood as well.

The Isha in front of her, how similar she was to them when they were just born!

Especially with Veit, she still remembered that Veit was initially repulsed and wary of everything around him, and it was only after Winters' enlightenment that he gradually accepted them.

As for Isha, she supposedly had no one to accept, which was why she was like this.

Realising this, Cyrene looked at Isha with more than a touch of sympathy in her gaze.

Isha was undoubtedly lucky.

Because the other person has parents!

However, it was obvious that her parents could not be with her every moment.

Unlike them, although they didn't have parents, Winters took care of them like a mother, and the five of them were able to be companions when Winters wasn't around.

And without the company of her parents, Isa was afraid that she could only be a dragon and spend this time alone.

Thinking like this, Celine comforted, ‘Don't worry, Dinnet isn't angry, she just went over to help Vitus out.’

Hearing Celine mention her name, Dinnet turned her head with some confusion, and when she saw Isha looking at her with an apprehensive face, although she didn't know what had happened, Dinnet still nodded with a habitual smile.

However, this nod was an extremely friendly message in Isha's eyes, which made her feel a little better.

She then looked back to the three dragons in the river.

‘What are they doing here?’

‘Swimming!

Veit said that learning to swim would give us an extra means of dealing with sudden situations.

And ...... it's fun, isn't it?’

At that, Isha turned her head to Celine.

‘Do you want to learn too?’

Celine was prepared to nod her head, but when she met Isha's slightly flustered gaze, she shook her head instead.

‘I've already learnt pretty much everything if this step, and besides, being in the water all the time isn't very comfortable for me who doesn't know water!

By the way, can you tell me a little bit about your previous life?

Life at the academy was so boring, especially after we were punished by Winters for copying books.

By the way, Winters is the teacher who is in charge of our lives as well as teaching us magic in the academy, plus she's also the dean of the academy.

Besides Winters, there is also Bocco, who is the teacher in charge of teaching us potions in a few days ......’

Saying that, Celine actually began to recount the life of the academy.

In her opinion, the somewhat boring and repetitive academy life was what made Isha, who was on the side, listen quite carefully and attentively.

From time to time, Isha would even interject to ask some questions and tell about her own life in passing.
