Chapter 323: Selain, The princess of Cosmos... Part-1.



"Well, if you are that interested in swordsmanship, maybe you should go to the outside world to hone your skill by competing with many talented people..."

Hearing Rio's words, Selain also nodded her head.

"Yeah, I would like to go and see the outside world too, but only adult dragons are allowed to go out; that's the rule... Unless I reach rank S, I won't be allowed to go out..."

"I still have at least twenty years before I become an adult..."

Hearing those words, Liam said,

"Dragons usually become adults at the age of 120 years, which means you are already a hundred years old?"

Selain immediately glared at Liam after hearing him say that,

"Dragons have different perceptions of time; I am young!! Don't say it like I am as old as a grandma..."

Liam shrugged his shoulders and stopped talking about that matter; he didn't want to offend the princess of a nation for no reason.

The group walked through the large corridors of the palace and reached the massive dining hall.

They all sat down on their seats; Lia sat on Rio's right side, and Selain sat on his left on purpose, which caused Lia to feel even more annoyed at her.

Ignorant of Lia's annoyed emotions, Selain glanced at everyone and said,

"I personally don't know why Father invited you, guys... No, he only invited 'Link Rex'; I was the one who invited the rest..."

When Liam heard those words, he glanced at Link and said,

"You sure are popular..."

At those words, Link could only shake his head.

"I don't know what he wants from me..."

Selain glanced at the group and said,

"Well, as you guys don't have any other plans..."

"We can enjoy the 'Festival' together. Also, do tell me more about the outside world; I am more than willing to know more about it..."

A confused look appeared on Liam's face as he asked,

"What exactly do you guys do at this festival actually?"

At Liam's question, Selain shook her head and said,

"Even I don't know much, this is the first time I will witness it myself. I haven't seen it before either; last time it was held, I wasn't even born yet..."

"But Father did say that all the citizens of the Dragon Valley will come back home from wherever they are on this day, and they will spend time with family together..."

"Also, all types of dragons will choose a representative who will come to the ancient dragon temple, and they will have a big banquet where all types of dragons will come..."

Hearing those words, Link immediately said,

"Oh, so it's like a New Year celebration or something like that... By the way, do you guys celebrate New Year's?"

A confused look appeared on Selain's face after hearing those words.

"New Year Celebration? What's there to celebrate about a new year?"

"For us dragons, a year or a decade is not much; we can just take a nap, and a decade will pass,

so I don't think we will bother celebrating every time we wake from a nap..."

"That would be so weird..."

Liam nodded his head and said,

"Ah, yes... Dragons really do have a very long life span after all; the thinking process of dragons is different than that of humans..."

Link also nodded his head and said,

After hearing Liam's statement, Selain wore a peculiar expression and said, "Humans really have it 'complicated'... In our case, we just straightforwardly confess it if we like someone, and we just get married directly... have children, and then the two stay together for thousands of years..."

"The bond once promised with the spell of marriage never breaks; a promise is a promise for life... Only death can break such a strong bond; nothing else..."

Liam asked curiously after hearing those words,

"Well, what if the other party became a bad person later on... Don't you guys have a divorce or

something?"

Selain shook her head and said,

"No, we don't... We just kill the other party if they cheat on you... It's simple and the most

effective method..."

Even Link couldn't help but say,

"Dragons really do have a very straightforward mentality... Just kill the other party if they don't seem pleasing to the eye? That's so ridiculous... ahem! I mean weird..."

Selain shrugged her shoulders at those words and said,

"Well, this exactly is one of the biggest causes of deaths in the dragon race; you end up

fighting with your partner to death. It's quite a miserable fate, I would say..."

"After living together for thousands of years, even the strongest bond of love can slowly fade

away, so dissatisfaction happens and they end up fighting..."

"Maybe they really should make 'Divorce' a thing in Dragon Valley... It can at least prevent

unnecessary deaths, I guess..."

At that moment, Lia smirked a bit and said, while looking into Selain's eyes,

"By the way, I and Rio are a couple; he's my boyfriend..."

Selain was taken aback for a moment, but then she also smiled as if she wasn't going to back

off from just that.

"Just a couple in name, right? You aren't married yet, which means it isn't set in stone..."

Sparks of electricity seem to be flying between Selain and Lia as they both glare at each other.

Rio just found this amusing; this is the first time he is meeting Selain, and she's already impressed by him.

'I never realized it... But do I also have some charm after all? Forget it; Lia is the only one for me; I don't need any charm...'

On the other hand, Link and Liam were both quite amused by this scene; this is the first time

they have seen someone trying to pursue Rio, who is always so distant and expressionless in

front of everyone except Lia.

Liam couldn't help but smile and think.

'D*mn! I can smell a great rivalry coming...'

Yo! It's your beloved author here!

Question of the day:. Don't you also think that Selain is aiming for a target that's already taken?

1. Yes (She's bound to fail...)

2. Yeah (I am more surprised that some other girl actually showed interest in Rio aside from

Lia...) By the way, don't forget to use those power stones and also leave a review if you like the story. Comment your opinion about the chapter. Your support is my motivation.
