Evil Dragon: The young dragon I picked up keeps planning on becoming an empress

"If I gave you a Fruit of Wisdom, could you advance to a level five Grim Reaper within a month? Six months is also fine."

"You give me ten Fruits of Wisdom, and I still fucking couldn't become a level six Grim... Grim... Grim... wait... what did you just say? A Fruit of Wisdom? You're going to give me a Fruit of Wisdom to eat?

Is it that very Fruit of Wisdom from the Tree of Wisdom personally planted by the Goddess of Wisdom in the legends?"

After regaining his wits, Death God Solomon lunged forward, startling the young dragon who instinctively shrank back, making it seem as though Solomon was about to burst through the projected light screen.

Lance nodded, "Yes, that very Fruit of Wisdom."

"You have a Fruit of Wisdom on you?"

"Not right now, but... if you can assure me that after eating the Fruit of Wisdom, you'll become a level six Grim Reaper within six months, then after tomorrow, I might be able to get one for you to try. But if I don't get it, then it's as if I never mentioned it."

Sophia asked him if he would be in Saint Blue tomorrow, and Lance felt... Sophia was likely to make a move on him tomorrow, and Erinna should be coming to Saint Blue.

If Thunder Dragon Erinna came, then Golden Giant Dragon Austin should return as well, Sophia was probably planning to have them join forces to attack him.

In this situation, if he won, he would have to get at least two or three Fruits of Wisdom from Austin.

With two Fruits of Wisdom, giving one to Solomon wasn't impossible.

Death God Solomon wasn't bad; if he could become a level six Grim Reaper, the hellside network would spread slightly higher up.

"Brother, you're not planning to rob Wisdom Holy Mountain, are you? From what I know, only Wisdom Holy Mountain in the Human World has a Wisdom Fruit Tree, and if you want a Fruit of Wisdom, robbing Wisdom Fruit Holy Mountain is your only option."

Solomon was a Grim Reaper, after all. He naturally knew where such divine things like the Wisdom Fruit Tree existed or not.

"I'm not crazy enough to dare plunder the sanctuary of the main Deity. You're getting sidetracked, just tell me, if I gave you a Fruit of Wisdom to eat, could you become a level six Grim Reaper within six months."

"Can't." Solomon abruptly rose from his seat, then sat back down, propping his legs on the desk, and said, "The effect of the Fruit of Wisdom is to enhance intelligence, but for a Grim Reaper like me whose wisdom is already high, the Fruit of Wisdom won't exaggerate my abilities to that extent.

However... Once I reach level five as a Grim Reaper, if I could swallow a Fruit of Wisdom, it might be a bit useful to me, because passing the level five threshold is a barrier; only after overcoming it can one aspire to become a level nine Grim Reaper.

If not, it's very probable I'll remain a level five Grim Reaper forever.

But I digress, hang on, did you actually say Valkyrie owes you money, or are you just joking? I'm not kidding when I say boasting about Deities can be dangerous."

Lance was his favorite Grim Reaper, otherwise he wouldn't have granted Lance such extensive privileges, allowing him, an Intern Reaper, to be above the level one Grim Reapers.

In the other level two Grim Reaper's cases, the level one Grim Reapers are above the Intern Reapers, whereas with him, Lance, the Intern Reaper, was always above the level one Grim Reapers.

His level one Grim Reapers all knew this, so none of them dared to cross him and directly issue hell bounty tasks to Lance.

At least Lance had the conscience to use a Fruit of Wisdom to tempt him.

Actually, hell also has divine items not inferior to the Fruit of Wisdom, called the "Hell Fruit."

Consuming a Hell Fruit could greatly increase a Grim Reaper's strength and also transform the Grim Reaper's physique into a Hell Body.

Anyway, the Grim Reapers touted the effects of the "Hell Fruit" as miraculous.

"I'm not lying to you, do you remember when you went touring heaven, I asked you to look for a girl named Sophia?"

"Did I? Let me think... oh... seems like there was such a thing. But what's the relationship between Sophia and Valkyrie?"

"Sophia is Valkyrie, to be exact, Sophia is an identity Valkyrie used while walking in the Human World. When I knew her, she was human, then for some reasons, we became friends.

Later on, she would often borrow money from me and freeloading meals at my place, and then for some reasons I wasn't careful enough and let her die.

Afterward, as it happened, I found out that Sophia bore a striking resemblance to the statue in the Valkyrie Temple, I probed a little, and to my surprise, Sophia really was Valkyrie.

After dying, she returned to the Divine Realm, became a Deity and still didn't think of returning my money. Yesterday, someone from the Divine Realm sent for her, and when I demanded the money back, she told me to go get it in the Divine Realm.

Then I thought of you."

"!!!"

Death God Solomon was dumbfounded. His trainee Grim Reaper actually knew a Valkyrie from the Divine Realm.

The occurrence of Deities taking human identities to walk the Human World for experience did really exist.

Throughout history, many instances like this happened, and for those Deities reborn into the Human World, their names never appeared on the Grim Reaper's list of hell.

Their names only appeared with the Netherworld King.

In casual conversation, he had heard some very old Grim Reapers mention that main Deities like the War God, Light God King had lived human lives in the Human World.

After his brief distraction, a look of indignant frustration crossed Solomon's face. You really knew a Valkyrie from the Divine Realm; and instead of making her your patron, you were thinking of getting her to pay you back!

How much could that money amount to?

The friendship of Valkyrie was the true treasure!

Has the intern Reaper gone stupid?

What this second-level Grim Reaper could give, the Valkyrie could give even more.

If Lance could cozy up to the Valkyrie, his own status would rise with the tide as well!

Could it be that he's too ashamed to live off the Valkyrie's charity?

Stupid!

After being single for over a thousand years, doesn't he understand the perks of being a kept man?

Has he lived as long as a dog only to waste it?

"Are you stupid?"

"Speak nicely, no need to curse."

"If I don't cuss you out a bit, I really feel I'm not doing justice to this opportunity you've got. You know a Valkyrie, and instead of thinking about cultivating and advancing your friendship with her, you're thinking about collecting debts from her? Are you stupid or what?

No wonder you're still single. With your attitude, I think you'll never find a wife.

In the future, in front of the Valkyrie, don't say you know me. I'm afraid you'll lower her IQ just by association.

In a word, about that debt, I'm not going to the Divine Realm to collect it for you. If you've got the guts, go yourself.

That's it. Don't contact me if it's not important."

Death God Solomon cut off the projection call without giving Lance a chance to speak.

Just as Lance was about to put away the Grim Reaper's Scythe, the darkened projection screen lit up again, and Death God Solomon reappeared on it, "Straight man, blockhead, no emotional intelligence, serves you right for being single, I'm so irritated!

You don't deserve the Valkyrie's friendship!"

(╬◣д◢)

"I have the Fruit of Wisdom."

"You have shit."

"I ate the Fruit of Wisdom."

"You ate..."

Death God Solomon's gaze fell upon the young dragon, who said she had eaten the Fruit of Wisdom.

He stared into the young dragon's eyes for a while, then said, "Your clear, shining eyes tell me you haven't eaten the Fruit of Wisdom."

"I really ate it, you can tell just by looking into my eyes."

"Your wise expression tells me you haven't eaten it."

"....."

Why did it feel like Death God Solomon was insulting her?

"Don't think about getting me to collect debts for you. I'm leaving that opportunity to you. I've told you the method, become a sixth-level Reaper, and then you can go to the Divine Realm.

Hmm, these next few days I'll see if I can possibly promote your intern Reaper status to that of a first-level Reaper."

Death God Solomon ended the projection once more.

Lance, with a helpless expression, put away the Grim Reaper's Scythe.

After such a long conversation, it was like talking to himself.

Death God Solomon... unreliable.

Sigh...

It seems he still has to rely on himself.

Saying he has shit...

He would like to see if Solomon would eat it when he delivers the Fruit of Wisdom to him.

A fifth-level Grim Reaper...

To help Death God Solomon successfully advance to a sixth-level Reaper, he should still prepare the Fruit of Wisdom for him.

After all, there's a Dragon making deliveries to the doorstep.
