Nevertheless, Vaan hopped on the ninth dragon lord\'s back before Lord Narvim took off and brought him to another mountain peak, the Eighth Peak.

They were going to see the eighth dragon lord, Lord Khaleesi.

As Vaan suspected, the two dragon lords had some business with him, and it was most likely related to his intimate moment with Eniwse.

If he was only suspicious before, then he was now completely certain the two dragon lords were the culprits behind the roaring thunders and spying.

Nevertheless, shortly after they arrived at Khaleesi\'s lair, Lord Narvim brought Vaan before Khaleesi and moved to the side.

Vaan immediately felt the mighty pressure of a Rank 5 True Dragon bearing down on him as Khaleesi gave him a hard.

Time slowly passed, but Vaan stood his ground like an unmovable mountain and stared back at the eighth dragon lord quietly and patiently.

Since it was the other party who wanted to see him, naturally, he shouldn\'t and wouldn\'t be the one to speak first.

Several more moments passed before Khaleesi withdrew her stern gaze and broke the silence

"You got guts, human." Khaleesi sighed before shaking her head self-deprecatingly and saying, "I don\'t know whether you are brave or just foolish. However, only a man with courage is worthy of my daughter."

"Do you know why you are here, human?" Khaleesi asked with a slightly threatening tone.

However, Vaan shook his head with a calm smile, seemingly unaffected by the pressure, and said, "How would I know if you don\'t say? But if I have to guess, it\'s related to Eniwse."

"Yes, and no. Eniwse is the reason why you are even here, but not the reason why I wanted to see you, Vahn," Khaleesi said with a softer tone and even addressed him by name.

She had exerted her pressure twice, but Vaan remained unwavering and completely at ease. There was no need for her to test him further; he wasn\'t faking it.

"You don\'t seem surprised to learn that Eniwse is my daughter and Narvim\'s, Vahn," Khaleesi added.

"Well… I had some suspicions, but your words confirmed them," Vaan replied honestly with a smile before adding, "Still, I wonder if you can clarify why that is the case, Lord Khaleesi. After all, you\'re a dragon, and she\'s undoubtedly human."

"Human, that she is. I won\'t deny that truth," Khaleesi acknowledged that point before continuing, "However, you see, she was my daughter in her past life. And while she is no longer a dragon in her second life, she is still my daughter."

"After all, her physical form may have changed, but her dragon soul remains, albeit sealed, or rather, dormant. Nevertheless, as she grows stronger, she will slowly recall her memories and knowledge."

"The reason why I wanted to see you was to reward you for curing her abnormality and releasing her from her suffering," Khaleesi shortly stated her intention.

However, Vaan casually shook his head and refused, "There\'s no need for that. I didn\'t save Eniwse because I was expecting a reward. I saved her because she is my woman."

Khaleesi\'s eye instinctively twitched when she heard Vaan\'s uncomfortable claim.

Even so, she suppressed the urge to smack Vaan, remained calm, and reminded herself that her daughter was now a human.

"Then don\'t think of it as a reward but as a gift." Khaleesi glanced at Narvim before saying, "Unlike my unless husband here, I am very generous to people I am fond of."

"First, while you stay on Eighth Peak, your status will be second only to mine. Second, you have my full protection in the Red Dragon Clan. Third, with my authority as a dragon lord, I permit you to freely leave and visit the Red Dragon Clan without having your memory wiped."

"However, your strength is too low, and I fear you will die some stupid death once you leave. Thus, that brings us to my fourth gift. Whatever knowledge, potion, or herb you require to improve your strength, I will provide it to the best of my ability and authority," Khaleesi stated domineeringly.

"Lord Khaleesi sure doesn\'t hold back. I\'m afraid the word \'generous\' was just an understatement. Since Lord Khaleesi already said as much, it would be rude and hypocritical of me to refuse a second time," Vaan graciously accepted.

Naturally, he did not want to refuse the first time. Rather, he was stressing his relationship with Eniwse to receive even more benefits.

And as expected, he was not disappointed and even impressed by the eighth dragon lord\'s generosity.

He was practically her son-in-law.

"Still, I must say, Lord Khaleesi. The gifts are great, but I\'m not so sure you are fond of me. Rather, I get the feeling that you hate me," Vaan casually teased with a sly look.

"Stinky kid, you are just imagining things. I am not just fond of you; I am very fond of you!" Khaleesi stressed, but her gnashing teeth implied otherwise. "And you can drop the honorifics. You may call me Khaleesi directly."

"Alright, Khaleesi," Vaan quickly agreed as if he had achieved his aim.

At the same time, Khaleesi realized she was falling for Vaan\'s tricks and felt like she had eaten shit. The bastard was very sly and scheming.

"Oh, right. Khaleesi, I would like to—"

"Hm?" Khaleesi interrupted Vaan with a glare and spat, "Don\'t push your luck, stinky kid."

"I was just going to say that I would like to make use of your fourth gift now, Khaleesi." Vaan softly chuckled before asking, "What did you think I was going to say?"

"Hmph!" Khaleesi rolled her eyes and snorted. "Speak! What do you need?"

"Ahem." Vaan cleared his throat with a dry cough and got down to business. "I would like to take a look at your collection of fire-attribute plants."

He had, more or less, grasped some understanding of the eighth dragon lord\'s nature.

While Khaleesi could use harsh words and appear unapproachable, she had a good heart. She could dislike him, but she would still look after him.

The same went for her husband, Narvim.

It was also why Narvim simply smiled wryly when he was called useless. She didn\'t actually think he was useless; she was just venting off some of her resentment.
