The Mighty Dragons Are Dead

```

Grasping Paris' hand and initiating a simple Dragon Knight Resonance, Liszt began extracting the High Mana of the Light Dragon. With his other hand, he pulled a Dragonfire Syringe from the Gemstone Space.

The Dragonfire Syringe, crafted from volcanic glass, is a storage device capable of containing the Dragon's Intent of a Fire Dragon Overmagic.

However, Liszt had never used the Dragonfire Syringe to store High Magic, and this time he planned to experiment. After extracting the High Mana of the Light Dragon from Paris, he wondered whether it could be infused into the Dragonfire Syringe for gradual study—after all, it was the High Mana of another Elemental Dragon, an immensely valuable research material for magicians like Ach.

"It's so hot..."

Paris struggled to endure the unruly rampage of Dragon Dou Qi within her, knowing that to achieve the effect of Dragon Knight Resonance, the process would inevitably demand her body as the main stage for a precise yet ferocious manipulation.

Fortunately, this did not last long.

Familiar with true Dragon Knight Resonance, Liszt successfully fused his own Dragon Dou Qi with Paris' High Mana of the Light Dragon. He then began to draw it out slowly from her body using Dou Qi release techniques, guiding it through a sharp fingertip into the Dragonfire Syringe.

Regrettably, the Dragonfire Syringe could block the Fire Dragon Overmagic but was unable to contain the High Mana of the Light Dragon.

The ball of High Mana, merged with Dragon Dou Qi, passed directly through the syringe and dissipated into the air. Since it couldn't be stored, Liszt did not insist; he continued guiding and releasing it, and after about a quarter of an hour, all the High Mana of the Light Dragon inside Paris was extracted.

Gradually, the transformation into Paris' Black Dragon Childe form also began to recede.

The scales withered, her form shrank, and the once slightly plump and spirited female mercenary returned. However, her clothes were torn apart, and mere shreds of fabric could not hide her fair skin. The key parts of her chest were exposed clearly before Liszt.

However, before Liszt could shift his focus from extracting the High Mana of the Light Dragon and take a good look at Paris' body, Chris, who stood guard nearby, had already removed her Magic Cloak and wrapped it around Paris.

Seeing this, Liszt glanced lightly at Chris—what a careless fellow!

Regardless, the issue with Paris' Black Dragon Childe strength was completely resolved. As her strength was drawn out and she reverted to human form, she slowly collapsed into Chris' arms.

"Viscount, with Captain Paris' body strength depleted, could there be any problems?"

"There shouldn't be any problems," Liszt let go of her hand and calmed the Dragon Dou Qi within himself, "However, her body has been eroded by the High Mana of the Light Dragon for too long, so there will be a period of weakness after the separation. She will need a generous supply of nutrients to replenish her body's needs."

At that moment, Ach, who had been observing for a while, gently grasped Paris' hand to sense her condition.

After a moment, he said, "Brother, although Paris' body is weak and I can't feel the High Mana of the Light Dragon, I can still sense that Light Attribute Magic Power is compatible with her body. Moreover, her body seems to be refining Light Attribute Magic Power on its own... resembling both Dou Qi and Magic."

"You mean to say she can now practice both Dou Qi and Magic?" Liszt was quite astonished.

Ach nodded: "Fundamentally, Magic and Dou Qi are conflicting; Magic requires outward spiritual release, while Dou Qi necessitates inward spiritual concentration—they are two different cultivation systems. But Paris' body has been specially transformed by the Light Dragon and become similar to a Magical Beast's body, naturally gifted in magic."

"So it can be like that too, let me ponder for a moment."

Liszt sat down on a chair and, though claiming to reflect, in truth, he summoned the Smoke Mission: "Complete the mission, reward Paris with the path of the Light Magic Swordsman."

"The path of the Light Magic Swordsman?" He understood Ach's speculation was correct; the path of cultivation rewarded by the Smoke Mission for Paris was indeed a system that combined both Magic and Dou Qi.

It seemed that only humans whose bodies were thoroughly transformed by Dragonkind's High Magic could, like Magical Beasts, draw upon the magic power in the air while refining their body's own magic power.

Light Magic Swordsman, it sounded quite impressive.

"I wonder if I could have Leo mass-produce some Fire Paladins in the future? Or maybe I could just take up the job of a Fire Paladin myself... When it doesn't interfere with my Dragon Knight training, picking up some Fire System Magic on the side would be quite an enjoyable experience, too."

Fantasy between.

The Smoke Serpent Script has changed, "Mission: The formula for a potion to enhance the vitality of a person has been sent to Cousin Mei Oubo, it might be effective for the continuation of the Long Taro Family's lineage. However, as Marquis Merlin is an elder who commands your respect, perhaps you should seek an opportunity to listen to his teachings. Reward: Clues to the Sub-dragon Phoenix."

"Sub-dragon Phoenix?"

"Do Super Dragonkin Magical Beasts truly exist?"

"It seems I need to make a trip to Red Crab Island as soon as possible to meet Marquis Merlin." Liszt had long planned to meet Marquis Merlin, but he had been too busy to find the time.

Now that the Smoke Mission had urged him, he needed to make time to go to Red Crab Island no matter what.

He blinked, dispersing the smoke before his eyes, and Liszt returned to his senses. Looking at Ach and Chris, who were studying the unconscious Paris, he immediately said, "Let Paris rest until she wakes up before asking for her cooperation. Now, Chris, you arrange for someone to take care of Paris and let her recover as soon as possible."

Chris replied, "Yes, Viscount."

Ach then said, "Brother, Ach wants to meet Mary Dawn Break and study the magic of storage with her." She was always thinking about the matter of wearing clothes.

Liszt naturally would not refuse.

Shortly after, Mary arrived. Now a Pureblood Vampire, her strength had increased significantly. Freed from the shackles of the Black Knight Family, without too much work to do, her life was quite comfortable. She was now mainly focused on developing her subordinates.

The population of Black Horse Island had already exceeded one hundred thousand, and there would surely be many talented youths tempted by blood, wishing to become Vampires.

Mary and her Blood Servants were searching for suitable youths—of course, Liszt had set rules that forbade forcibly developing Vampires; they must obtain his approval before transformation.

Up until now,

Mary had found three youths with the talent for Blood Magic, and Liszt had rejected them all—two were new serfs whose loyalty was not sufficient; one was a Magic Apprentice valued by Chris, so development into a Vampire was not allowed either.

"Lord, do you have any orders?"

"Come to meet my sister, Acherloides Truth."

"Your sister, Lord? Respected Lord Acherloides, Mary Dawn Break greets you." Mary immediately performed the noble's courtesy.

Acherloides nodded, no nonsense, "I wish to study magic that can merge objects into the body; I need your help."

Mary responded, "As you wish, Lord Acherloides."

"Then let us begin the study at once."

Liszt interrupted, "Enjoy a good tour of Black Horse Island today, Ach. It won't be too late to study tomorrow." Experience more content on My Virtual Library Empire

Acherloides was somewhat torn but found it hard to refuse Liszt's suggestion, "Alright then."

Liszt didn't want Acherloides to become too immersed in the world of magic, as after all, she was still an underage Little Sea Monster who should have a happy "childhood."

However, he was not so lenient with others, "Mary, you will carefully organize this magic for storing objects today. Tomorrow, when Acherloides needs it, you must provide the most detailed data."

"Yes, Lord."
