“Familiar?”

A familiar was a creature that was subservient to a powerful being. It was equivalent to being a servant of a powerful being.

The inferior drakes were commonly used by humans as mounts. However, at times, these drakes would also chosen to become the familiar of humans.

A pure dragon’s arrogant character would never allow itself to become someone else’s familiar.

Even if they were willing to become a human’s familiar, they would immediately be abandoned by the Evil Dragon Goddess, Tiamat. They would be viewed as a disgrace by the entire dragon race, and they might even be pursued by the other dragons.

The moment this thought appeared on Max’s mind, he immediately rejected the old man’s proposal.

He knew that he did need a backer, but he felt that the Dragon Mother, Tiamat, was a much better choice.

‘Becoming a human’s familiar?’

This sentence was a great insult to any dragon.

Max had always thought that his way of thinking was different from his brethren, but upon hearing those words, he immediately twitched with anger.

“Compared to the cunning humans, I still feel that my dragon lair is warmer.”

“So, I refuse.”

Max spoke in the human tongue because he knew that the other party did not understand the language of the dragon race.

Although Max was full of anger, he did not display it on the surface.

The magician in front of him exuded a dangerous aura that was obviously stronger than the previous two adventurers. Max was certain that he was a powerful foe that could not be easily dealt with.

If he could end this peacefully, it would be the best outcome.

“Oh, oh, oh! Oh my God! Oh my God! You can speak! This is a baby dragon that can speak the human tongue!”

Tahir’s eyes were wide open. He did not care about his image and waved his hands wantonly.

The dragon race was a very strange race. An Adult Dragon’s intelligence was similar to that of a human, but the advantage of the dragon race was that their knowledge of magic was much more profound.

Moreover, the dragon race was also a race that did not need to learn at all. Their inherited memories had provided them with all they needed to know.

Moreover, due to their pride, they had chosen not to speak any other language aside from their obscure one.

This led to many dragons being incapable of speaking the human tongue.

Those who did, had only learned it by chance.

However, it was unheard of for a dragon to speak human language at the level of a young dragon!

Even though they had inherited their ancestors’ memory, the human tongue, which was considered to be trash to the dragons,?was not allowed to be passed down¹!

If Tahir had managed to obtain such a dragon, he would never sell it away!

‘This is an epoch-making discovery. This child is a unique case among the dragons!’

Tahir was extremely excited. He could not even control his emotions. There was a crazed look in his eyes as he spoke the following words, “Ah, ah! Little dragon, your grammar needs working on.”

“I can read you a bedtime story every day to correct your grammar. Oh, OH, Little dragon, do you realize how lucky you are for me to give so much attention to you?!”

“Once you grow up, I will ride on your back and take to the skies. Ah, a talking dragon as my pet. That’s simply wonderful!”

“I will catch a spouse for you. If I can’t, you can transform into a human... Oh, oh, forgive me, but are you a male or a female?”

...

Max’s brows tightened. He felt that the old man was very difficult to deal with.

The old man in front of him seemed to have gone mad. His behavior was crazy, his words did not make any sense, and static electricity was jumping all over his body.

Max was certain that he had made his intentions clear. This was not out of the pride that was expected of dragons.

Rather, it was due to his former human nature that wished to live a life of freedom. He did not want to be bounded by so many rules.

“I said I refuse.”

Max said slowly. action

The old man in front of him suddenly stopped moving. He was stunned for a while before he let out a long breath.

“Ah, you’ve refused... You’ve disappointed me.”

Tahir lifted his staff and raised it over his head.

Lightning flowed across his body. It gradually picked up speed until it began leaping frantically.

Instantly, the dark desert night was illuminated by him, by a bright white light that consumed everything.

“Lightning, obey my call! Morph into arrows and drown the skies!”

Following Tahir’s incantation, the lightning on his body gradually stabilized. They gathered together and formed a group of arrows.

The number of arrows was densely packed. Just as the incantation had stated, their numbers had drowned drowned the entire sky.

The section of the desert had become as bright as daytime!

“Not good...”

Upon seeing this scene, Max realized that he was in a pinch.

Unless he was mistaken, the spell that the old man had cast was one of the advanced spells, “Lightning Arrow Rain.”

It was was also one of the specialties of the Red Dragons, but not every Red Dragon was capable of casting it.

Red Dragons with poor aptitude for magic were incapable of using this move!

Moreover, the only magic that Max could cast was called “Lightning Arrow”.

One was a rain of arrows, and the other was a single arrow. It was obvious who was stronger.

“System! Display his attributes!”

A virtual interfaces appeared on Tahir’s body and displayed his stats.

Other than his attack power, all other attributes of the old man were extremely powerful!

However, as a magician, he did not need a high attack stat in the first place. He only needed to rely on his spells, after all.

Moreover, the densely packed magic column had occupied Max’s entire field of vision!

Wind, fire, water, thunder, and earth. The old man knew spells of all elements.

This was especially true for lightning-based magic. He had almost reached the peak of perfection!

This was because all of the Old Man lightning-based moves had existed in Max’s memories!

This meant that the old man knew some lightning spells that not even all Red Dragons were capable of pulling off!
