The Mighty Dragons Are Dead

39 Information about the Invisible Dragon

Three days later, Liszt returned to Flower Town on Coral Island.

The knights of Tulip Castle escorted him back. Another two nobles came to Flower Town with Liszt and Marcus. They did not inherit the family title and could only be called knights.

They were both Goltai's friends who had been drawn to Flower Town by the double wages.

"Liszt, welcome back. It's been only a week, but I was starting to miss you already." Goltai welcomed the lord of the town in an exaggerated manner.

He was warm and considerate.

"Marcus, the baron's loyal knight. Seeing how well-dressed you are, I know that everything went well on your trip."

"Haha. Isaiah and Blair, my old friends, I'm very happy to see you arrive with the baron. You've obviously chosen Flower Town."

Then, a dinner was to be held for the knights that escorted Liszt back.

Before dinner, Liszt brought the clover worm to the horsefield that had been completed around the castle. The ground was already green. Clovers were growing quickly in the high temperature.

"Come on out, little buddy."

The fat clover worm had beautiful stripes on its body.

It was much more energetic than the lazy tulip worm. Opening its mouth, the worm spat the wormgrass out. Then, as if it were fast-forwarded, a clover sprouted and grew quickly, until a purple flower blossomed.

"Don't forget to install fences in case the horse sabotages the wormgrass," Liszt reminded Thomas, his valet.

The issues regarding the sprites were the castle's business and did not require the officials or the serfs in town.

"Rest assured, my lord. I'll start to build the fences right now."

When Liszt returned to the castle, Carter greeted him. "My lord, dinner is ready. You can sit now."

"Let's eat."

Dinner in Flower Town was not worth mentioning, compared to the dinners that Liszt had a few days back, but he liked it more here, because he was the most respected person here.

"First of all, I'd like to propose a toast for the protection of Sir Lydon and the other knights."

"You're most welcome, my lord." The knights raised their cups.

The servants immediately refilled the cups. Liszt raised his cup again. "This toast is to Isaiah and Blair. I wish them a delightful life in Flower Town."

"Thank you, Lord Baron. We hope we can contribute to the development of Flower Town."

"The last toast is to my teacher Goltai, who helped me manage everything while I was away."

"It's what I should do. Liszt, as long as there's enough wine, I'm willing to spend the rest of my life in Flower Town." Goltai laughed.

"As long as you manage Flower Town soberly, you will have enough liquor during dinner," Liszt said.

"Of course, work and wine are both important."

"Haha."

Everybody enjoyed the food in this harmonious atmosphere.

..

After seeing off the knights, Liszt had an afternoon nap in the castle, and the familiar misty mission was updated. Mission accomplished. Reward: three wild corn.

Soon, the mist changed, and a new mission was released.

Mission: As a lord, it's your responsibility to tend to the sprites. Have you forgotten the wheat Spritish Worm? It can produce more food for your territory. Please settle the wormgrass for the wheat worm. Reward: information on the invisible dragon.

Information on the invisible dragon? What's that?

A bold idea suddenly popped up in Liszt's head. Are the misty missions going to give me a dragon? That seems too much. A dragon can change the course of a country. What does invisible dragon mean? A dragon that cannot be seen?

According to the memories of his former self, there were three types of dragons.

The first type was the gemstone dragon. The sapphire dragon of Archduchy Sapphire, for example, was one of the gemstone dragons. The ruby on the sword that Marquis Merlin gave Liszt was also produced by gemstone dragons and contained marvelous power.

The second type was the metal dragon. The iron dragon which fought the sapphire dragon in the knight novels was a metal dragon that could produce iron ores. Metal dragons were more numerous than gemstone dragons.

The last type was the elemental dragon, such as fire dragons and water dragons. They could hardly be tamed, but they were highly destructive because of their powerful magical elements. They were often the targets that the warriors tried to slay in knight novels.

Gemstone, metal, and elemental—which category does the invisible dragon belong to? Liszt was puzzled.

He decided to ask someone else.

He summoned Carter. "Mr. Carter, have you ever heard of the invisible dragon?"

Carter thought for a moment and replied, "No, I don't think so, my lord."

In the afternoon, he visited Goltai and his friends in town. He also considered it a chance to look for the three wild corn.

"Invisible dragon?"

Goltai scratched his chin. "I think I heard of it from somewhere before. Isaiah, Blair, do you remember?"

Isaiah and Blair searched their memories carefully and shook their heads.

After half an hour, Goltai still couldn't decide if he had heard about the invisible dragon before. "One tends to become senile when they are old. Liszt, I'm sorry for wasting your time. It's possible that I've never heard about an invisible dragon before."

"It's nothing. Right, Mr. Goltai, what jobs have you given to Isaiah and Blair?"

"I'm in charge of political affairs, Isaiah is in charge of finances, and Blair manages law and diplomacy."

"In that case, I'll entrust the development of Flower Town to the three of you." Liszt did not stay long in the town. He was confident in developing Flower Town, but he did not intend to micromanage and preferred to get work done through his subordinates, such as Goltai.

It was not easy for him to be reborn as a noble. Wouldn't it be a waste if he exhausted himself?

After he returned to the castle, Liszt thought to himself, Since the reward is information on the invisible dragon, does it mean that nobody will know what the invisible dragon is until I accomplish the mission?

Immediately, he left the castle for Wheaton. The wormgrass of the wheat worm that the earl rewarded was not settled yet.
