Evolving Silver Dragon

Chapter 538: 536 Negotiations End_1
“I will have the Metal Dragons in Lait Territory and the people of Freedom Island leave Lait Territory as soon as possible. You can consider this war as your victory.”

“Victory?”

Hearing the Platinum Dragon King’s words, Otto sneered, “You have the nerve to say that? How long do you think those weaklings can last in front of me?

Maybe it’s because the Mother of Evil Dragons and her forces retreated too quickly, disrupting your plans? Or maybe you don’t want to fight without a good reason and end up helping others for nothing?”

Although what Otto said was true, it changed the meaning when said out loud.

Being in a high position for a long time, the Platinum Dragon King was unsure what to say to Otto.

However, Otto quickly changed the topic, “In simple terms, you don’t want to continue fighting with me, do you?”

The Platinum Dragon King silently nodded, and Otto continued without mercy, “In that case, let the Light Proud Silver Shine take the Metal Dragons away from this continent.”

“What did you say?”

The Platinum Dragon King hesitated for a moment, even doubting his own ears.

But soon, Otto continued, “Whether you accept it or not, there will only be one absolute ruler or master in this continent in the future. Undoubtedly, that must be me.

And I will never allow a group of Metal Dragons who refuse to submit to me to bounce around in my territory like annoying fleas.”

“But this is their homeland where they have lived and bred up to now…”

The Platinum Dragon King looked at Otto with a complicated expression.

Unfortunately, since he had established his footing in this world, such emotions rarely appeared on him.

“So, what does that have to do with me?”

Otto tilted his head, looking like it was a matter of course.

The Platinum Dragon King silently watched this strange Silver Dragon, feeling very helpless.

He knew that even if he disagreed, Otto would definitely eliminate any forces that threatened him once the continent’s situation stabilized.

Whether they were Metal Dragons or Colorful Evil Dragons, they would be the prime targets.

With his current understanding of Otto, only unconditionally submissive beings could survive under Otto’s rule.

In the end, the Platinum Dragon King and Otto took a step back regarding the future survival of the Metal Dragons.

Those Metal Dragons that clearly held hostility towards Otto had to leave this continent unconditionally and cross the Storm Sea to find a new habitat.

The remaining Metal Dragons were allowed to stay on the continent by Otto, but they had to strictly follow the rules of the Dragon Soaring Empire.

To be precise, by choosing to stay, they were automatically joining the Dragon Soaring Empire and becoming ordinary citizens of Otto’s empire.

In terms of their status within the Dragon Soaring Empire, a Metal Dragon might not be much stronger than a Goblin, and they would be subject to the same punishment if they committed any wrongdoing.

As for whether these Metal Dragons could truly pledge their loyalty to Otto, that was no longer a matter for Otto and the Platinum Dragon King to consider.

Furthermore, there was not much discussion about the disposal of Freedom Island between the Platinum Dragon King and Otto.

It seemed that the Platinum Dragon King also had some complaints about this force, which resembled a group of inferior pirates.

There was not much to say between the Platinum Dragon King and Otto regarding this war, let alone the issues on this continent.

Unless there were any unexpected developments, the Platinum Dragon King would pass on the various instructions he negotiated with Otto to the Metal Dragons in the future.

By that time, it would be up to Light Proud Silver Shine and the other Metal Dragons to make their choices, and the Platinum Dragon King would not intervene too much.

Just before the Platinum Dragon King was about to leave, he suddenly turned to Otto and said, “Otto…no, Silver Dragon Lord, this continent, this plane, they are all cages that bind you.

With your strength and ambition, you will eventually break free from this cage and soar into a more vast world.”

After a brief silence, the Platinum Dragon King laughed at Otto, “Let’s put an end to our grievances, and I hope we can become friends if we have the opportunity.”

“Friends?”

Otto looked at the Platinum Dragon King with surprise; could they really become friends after everything that had happened?

“The Dragon race is still too weak among the gods. Although the Mother of Evil Dragons doesn’t care, I hope that you will have a place among the gods in the future.”

After saying that, the Platinum Dragon King left first, leaving a thoughtful Otto and a Father of the Forest who looked like a spectator.

Soon, Otto let go of his concerns. Even gods who appeared to be high and mighty in the eyes of mortals had their own circles of friends.

Even the noble and holy Platinum Dragon King, when it came to his own interests, would naturally make more rational decisions.

After the Platinum Dragon King flew off, the Father of the Forest slowly walked over to Otto.

It had been a while since Otto and this powerful being had seen each other. He looked around at the ever-recovering land and then laughed, “Don’t worry, I haven’t forgotten our agreement.”

Apparently, the Father of the Forest was satisfied with the surroundings. “If everything goes as expected, in about ten years, my old friend can be successfully resurrected.

Of course, if I can have your full assistance, the process can be shortened significantly.”

With only the power of the Red Lotus Fire or other average Druids, progress would indeed be slow, so the Father of the Forest hoped that Otto could lend a hand personally.

If the Platinum Dragon King could be trusted, the current situation on the continent should be considered stable.

Although there were still forces like Cordan, Oakland, and Freedom Island, these minor issues could be handled by Gaz and Shasharu.

Thus, Otto should have some free time to allocate later on.

“Of course, I won’t let you work for nothing. I have prepared a corresponding reward for you. On the day my old friend is resurrected, you will receive it.”

Listening to the Father of the Forest’s promise, Otto was inexplicably looking forward to it.

After all, the Father of the Forest was quite powerful among the gods. When such a high-level figure took action, it was naturally very generous.

“Oh? Can you reveal what that might be?”

“Some things are better kept a bit mysterious.”

The Father of the Forest laughed and shook his head before saying, “But I can guarantee that you won’t be disappointed.”
