The big bad dragon got jealous

Sylvia watched Violet’s lonely figure.

The medicine she had sent to Violet had been returned.

Violet had even sent someone to warn her never to approach her again.

But Violet and her Alpha didn’t seem to have a good relationship.

They seemed to be together in name only, not in love at all.

Sylvia felt sorry for Violet and looked at Long Ling in the distance, instructing the person beside her: “Investigate that little dragon’s background and give her some lessons in private.”

She quickly straightened her suit, made sure her appearance was okay, and walked towards Violet.

Just as Sylvia was about to approach Violet, two strong, plainclothes Dragon Guards suddenly drew their swords and blocked her path.

Sylvia quickly knocked the two Dragon Guards to the ground, but when she tried to chase after Violet again, Violet was gone.

Not only that, but other plainclothes Dragon Guards appeared and chased after Sylvia.

This little episode went unnoticed.

The magic beast meat merchant wore old-fashioned high boots, and his double-breasted coat had some bullet holes.

He wore a pirate hat and threw large chunks of magic beast meat, still attached to the bone, into the hollowed-out wooden stump that was burning in the middle.

As soon as the magic beast meat was burned by the fire, its own oil made the fire in the wooden stump leap up, crackling like little fireworks.

From a distance, it looked like wisps of smoke were rising, like fireworks being set off.

The merchant had more than a dozen such wooden stumps around him, each with magic beast meat inside.

Without any seasoning, the smell of grilled meat made people’s mouths water.

Long Ling was very interested in this barbecue method and asked the magic beast meat merchant, “What kind of magic beast is this meat from?”

The merchant suddenly saw two young and beautiful noble ladies standing in front of him, one with silver-white dragon horns on her head and the other with cyan dragon horns.

Behind them stood a noble woman with black dragon horns and a very majestic aura.

He quickly said, “This is magic rock beast meat. It’s very delicious. One piece of meat is only five gold coins.”

These dragons were very rich and could eliminate the residual magic in the magic beast meat.

He had once sold this magic beast meat to humans on the Brun Continent and almost killed a village of people.

Fortunately, a priest passed by, and he was saved from the gallows.

The merchant was very enthusiastic and quickly found the best-grilled magic rock beast meat.

He lifted the iron hook on the wooden stump, placed the magic rock beast meat on a plate, added a large spoonful of sauce to a small iron box, and put it on a tray with a knife and fork, handing it to Long Ling.

Long Ling saw that the magic beast meat had been delivered, so she gave the merchant five gold coins.

The price of magic beast meat was more expensive than ordinary meat, but it was still within an acceptable range.

She had never seen this sauce before.

The deep red color looked like jam, but it smelled sweet and spicy.

Long Ling scooped up a small spoonful and found that the sauce tasted good.

Anne saw Long Ling take a bite of the sauce and also took a small spoonful, exclaiming, “It’s crunchy and crackles. What kind of sauce is this?”

The merchant said with a smile, “This is dark earth lotus chopped into small pieces, mixed with chili peppers and sweet fruit jam to make dark earth lotus chili sauce. It can be used to dip magic rock beast meat.”

When Long Ling heard “dark earth lotus,” a look of surprise flashed in her eyes.

She and her mother had bought earth lotus from the dwarves and sold it to alchemists.

She had originally thought it could only be used as an alchemy material, but she didn’t expect it could also be used as seasoning.

Anne couldn’t wait to taste it.

She wanted the merchant to cut the meat, but she saw that the merchant’s knife wasn’t clean, covered in minced meat, so she looked at Long Ling.

“Sister Long Ling, do you have a knife?”

Long Ling happened to be carrying the knife Ellena had given her.

The elves’ craftsmanship was more elaborate than the dwarves’.

The knife Ellena gave her was very exquisite and sharp, making her love it, so she always carried it with her.

Long Ling took out her knife and evenly cut the magic beast meat into small pieces, dividing it into three portions.

She gave one portion to Anne first, and the other two portions were for her and Violet.

Violet looked at the knife Long Ling was using to cut the meat.

The hilt was inlaid with a circle of blue gemstones, and the blade was polished with magic stone, shining with a water-like blue luster under the light, extraordinarily luxurious.

This wasn’t the knife she had given her.

Violet frowned, watching Long Ling cut the meat and then carefully wipe the knife clean with a cotton cloth before putting it back into her small bag.

She hadn’t noticed it before, but now it looked very unpleasant.

Violet couldn’t help but ask, “Do you like that knife?”

Long Ling tightened the drawstring of her small bag: “I like it quite a bit.”

Violet almost scoffed; she could probably guess who had given it to her.

Little Dragon didn’t have many friends, only that elf.

It was fine to receive a gift, but to carry it around with her was very irritating.

Was she trying to provoke her?

Anne smelled the vinegar in the air and quickly picked up her magic rock beast meat, eagerly eating it.

Long Ling felt that the atmosphere was a little cold, but she didn’t pay much attention.

Violet didn’t like her being a little cook, and she didn’t let her cook for others.

What was wrong with her receiving a gift from a good friend?

She sat down at a portable small wooden table and tasted the original grilled magic rock beast meat with a fork.

The outer layer of the grilled meat was crispy, and the inside was tender, with a texture similar to beef, but more chewy.

After eating it, she felt full of energy.

Violet saw Little Dragon eating happily, not caring about her feelings at all.

She was no longer the Long Ling of the past, and she couldn’t help but feel a sense of loss.

Long Ling had also told her to change, and she couldn’t be the same as before.

Violet sat down next to Long Ling and asked calmly, “Is the magic beast meat delicious?”

Long Ling saw a hint of sadness in Violet’s usually proud eyes.

She pursed her lips slightly, and her tone softened: “It’s delicious. It’s very chewy, and the texture is a bit like beef.”

Violet stared into her eyes, her voice a little hoarse: “Can you feed me?”

Long Ling looked at Violet, her eyes shifting away unnaturally: “There are a lot of people here.”

She put the untouched portion of magic beast meat in front of Violet.

Violet’s eyes looked a bit pitiful: “But I want you to feed me, Long Ling. I was very unhappy just now.”

Hadn’t they already broken up?

Was she expecting her to coax her?

Long Ling didn’t respond.

Violet’s hand touched the hem of her clothes, gently shaking it.

She was like a proud little cat, using soft little paws to pat people.

Looking at her, the little cat seemed to be about to fall to the ground, showing her soft belly.

Long Ling’s heart softened even more.

She couldn’t resist the woman’s coquetry.

She forked a small piece of magic beast meat and brought it to Violet’s lips: “One bite.”

Violet leaned forward, her red lips slightly parted, and immediately took the bite of magic beast meat.

She rarely made such a cute gesture, causing Long Ling to be stunned, staring blankly at her crimson lips and the fleeting soft, red tongue.

Violet saw Long Ling’s dazed look and licked her lips again, making Long Ling’s ears heat up.

Violet’s red lips curved slightly, taking an inch after getting a mile: “Feed me again?”

Long Ling was a little embarrassed: “No.”

Violet pulled her clothes again: “Was that knife just now given to you by the elf?”

Long Ling nodded slightly: “It was given to me by Ellena. It’s very useful for cutting fruit and meat.”

Violet said softly: “I’ll find someone to make you a better one and give it to you. Can you use another knife in the future?”

Long Ling refused: “I already have a handy knife.”

Violet’s eyes narrowed slightly.

The knife the elf gave her was handy, and the knife she wanted to give her was useless, so it wouldn’t be handy, right?

“Knives will become dull after a long time of use. You’ll wear out the gift someone else gave you if you keep using it.”

Long Ling glanced at Violet: “If it becomes dull, I can polish it.”

Violet’s eyes lit up with a smile: “You can tell me what you’re missing in the future, and I’ll give it to you. You can do whatever you want, and I won’t stop you.”

Long Ling snorted inwardly.

Violet hadn’t said that before.

They had even quarreled many times.

Now she was saying it as if it were true.

She forked a piece of magic beast meat and fed it to Violet’s mouth: “Just eat your food.”

Long Ling and Violet finished the magic beast meat together and went to other stalls to stroll.

She wandered for a long time before settling on a set of coral ornaments.

The outer shell was a moon shape made of glass.

When the switch was pressed, the stars hanging inside would flicker and shine.

A small mermaid ornament danced in the blue coral, and it would also make beautiful and moving songs, almost exactly like the performance she saw today.

Long Ling thought that Ellena had always lived in the deep forest, taking the protection of the elves as her responsibility, and had almost never traveled far.

As her friend, she could send this gift to Ellena, and Ellena would be able to see the same scenery as her.

Long Ling bought it without hesitation.

Because of its beautiful appearance and complex craftsmanship, it cost ten thousand gold coins.

She paid part of the deposit, and the balance was agreed for the merchant to collect at her tavern.

Because the ornaments were precious, the parts had to be disassembled and packed to avoid bumps during transportation, and then reassembled when they arrived at the elven territory in the forest.

Long Ling wanted to ask the shop owner for a piece of parchment and have him write down the installation steps.

The shop owner was an alchemist and gave her a magic scroll, also taking out a magic quill and writing the installation steps and drawing pictures of each part.

“Open it after you get home, and put it on the ground. It will turn into golden arrows to guide you to complete the assembly.”

Long Ling was the first time seeing a magic scroll.

It was different from ordinary parchment.

It was covered with exquisite magic runes and spells, looking very old.

The scroll was also decorated with special metal patterns, feeling very textured.

This was the best after-sales service Long Ling had ever seen.

She quickly put the precious magic scroll into her small bag.

Packing would take some time.

The shop owner had never expected a big customer like her, so he had to borrow a wooden box from a familiar arcanist.

“Sister Long Ling, are these pearl earrings pretty?” Anne asked Long Ling, wearing earrings in front of the mirror and tilting her head.

Long Ling casually said they were pretty.

She turned her head to look at the position beside her and found that Violet, who should have been by her side, was gone.

Her eyes couldn’t help but search the crowd, and she suddenly saw Violet talking to someone in a hidden corner.
