Evil Dragon: The young dragon I picked up keeps planning on becoming an empress

Chapter 496: 301



Buy insurance for her tentacles? The squid lady subconsciously glanced at the tentacles beneath her skirt. What was insurance? She didn't understand. The skirt she was wearing was a gift from Black Dragon. "When you talk all this weird stuff, could you communicate with me in words I can understand? Like what you're saying about insurance, what does that mean? How do I insure my own tentacles? Smells good, have you cooked something delicious for your Dragon Cub again?" The squid lady sniffed toward the source of the aroma and hopped and skipped towards the dining area. During the time Black Dragon wasn't at Black Dragon Island, she stayed there for a few days. She even threatened the little dog and the small turtle not to tell Black Dragon about her little stay on the island. Dare they snitch on her, she would eat them the day Black Dragon left Black Dragon Island. She didn't do anything too outrageous on Dragon Island; she just got acquainted with the place, swam in Black Dragon's borderless pool, and even slept there for two days. The first day she went to play in that borderless pool, she used too much force by accident and fell off the edge. Black Dragon had built a pretty nice pool, with flowing water. Above the pool there were sun loungers, air mattresses. You could throw an air mattress onto the pool, then lie on it to have fun, but it's best not to fall asleep... if you do, you might easily fall from the border-less side... Upon reaching the dining room, the squid lady saw the meat buns—they were rather large, the smallest being over a meter, the largest ranging up to four or five meters. There were even some ten meters... Small buns for the young Dragon Cub to eat. Large buns for Black Dragon to eat. In her human form, she was just a bit over one meter fifty... So, she decided to lie on top of a meat bun to eat. "You're really weird. You're clearly a Giant Dragon, yet your routines and diet are just like a human's, eating three meals a day, taking a nap at noon, and sleeping at night." "Complaining while eating my meat buns, is that polite?" "Where did you go recently? Disappeared for several months; I thought you became a mount for some Human World's strong entity, or that you might have died out there. I was all set to take over Black Dragon Island, and then you just came back." While talking, half a meat bun had already entered the squid lady's mouth. "Just took a tour around the Abyss." "The Abyss?" The squid lady pulled her head out from the meat bun and turned to look at Lance, "The place where it's said Demons live? Fun? Why didn't you take me with you when you went? I've never been there, never even eaten a Demon. Have you eaten a Demon? Are they tasty? Next time you go to the Abyss, can you take me? I'll take care of catching the Demons, you handle the grilling. We can cooperate, aiming to turn the Abyss into our own 'farm.'" ??? Turn the Abyss into a farm? Eat Demons? If Demons saw the squid lady's true form, they'd do well not to bake and eat her instead. "Sure, next time I encounter a Demon, I'll summon you. No, wait... seems I can't summon you. Let's make a Summoning Contract first. Never mind, you should make a Summoning Contract with my Dragon Cub. When we encounter a Demon, I'll have my Dragon Cub summon you. How about that?" "Sure, sure, wait, no, wouldn't I then become the Dragon Cub's summoned beast? To use human terminology... it's like I would become the Dragon Cub's pet." "..." I took this one to the Human World a few times; not so easy to deceive anymore. Before we'd gone to the Human World, it might have been possible to fool the squid lady with sweet talk. Not anymore. Hard to deceive now. "Don't overthink it, even if you make a Summoning Contract with the Dragon Cub, given the Dragon Cub's timidity, it wouldn't summon you unless it faced a mortal danger. It's afraid you might eat it up." The squid lady thought it over and felt that Lance made sense. "Wouldn't it be more convenient just to keep me by your side?" "Let's shelve that topic for now; back to the previous discussion." "Insure my tentacles?" "Yes." "How do I get insured?" "You give me all your valuables, and if your tentacles get severed or torn in a battle with a formidable opponent, come find me and take me to your opponent. I will help you avenge and attack together. If your tentacles fall off naturally, that's not covered by the insurance." The squid lady nodded as if she understood but continued to gnaw at the meat bun. Black Dragon had said so much, but essentially it could be summed up in one sentence: [He wanted to swindle her money]. Did she need Black Dragon's revenge? She was a Deep Sea Siren. The reason she failed to devour that Giant Dragon and Sea Monster that day was that she became a little too impatient. She didn't wait for them to both be fatally injured; she just used her tentacles to wrap them up and tossed them into her mouth. As a result, they managed to escape. It was her moment of hesitation. After following Black Dragon to the Human World several times, she picked up some bad habits, such as preferring cooked food and liking to add some spices when eating. When she stuffed that Giant Dragon and the serpent-like Sea Monster into her mouth, she thought about whether to turn them into cooked food which made her hesitate, and they seized the opportunity to escape from her mouth. Besides, her tentacles weren't that easy to sever; only someone like Black Dragon could cut her tentacles easily. Other Sea Monsters would have a hard time cutting off her tentacles. More often than not, it was she who would use her tentacles to strangle the other Sea Monsters. Her tentacle was severed that time because the Giant Dragon and Sea Monster had worked together. If it had been a one-on-one fight, the Giant Dragon and Sea Monster might have already been brought to Black Dragon Island by her and turned into a cooked meal. "If you want to swindle my money, just say it outright. No need to beat around the bush." "Swindle money? Why would you think I'm trying to swindle your money?" "Simple, so far, the only one who can easily sever my tentacles is you, the Black Dragon." "Didn't you just say a Giant Dragon and a Sea Monster broke one of your tentacles?"
