Palm Dragon

Adrian sat on the big bed in a daze with a dull expression.

All he remembered was getting into a big wine barrel on the night of the festival and getting lost in a big garden.

What happened after that?

The little black dragon had just woken up, his sanity was still not very clear, his eyes were wandering in this strange big room, dazedly trying to recall the things he could remember.

But before he could think of any clues, his attention was immediately diverted.

"Oh!" The chubby black dragon found something and immediately jumped out of bed excitedly.

Beside the big bed covered with soft sheets was a boxwood chair with a backrest as high as the armrests. The legs of the chair were embossed with long stems and leaves, and four golden lions were embroidered with gold silk on the bulging cushions.

But Adrian wouldn't notice any coat of arms or elaborate designs on the chair.

"What a big water bladder agate!" Adrian's eyes were as bright as the gems that were reflecting the sun.

"One, two, three, four..." The back of the chair is actually inlaid with such a large water gall agate!

The little black dragon took a look.It seems that the setting is not very firm.

"...Where is this place?" Adrian hesitated when his claws reached for the gem.Be a dragon thief in a strange place, what if you get caught?

Before struggling out of the contradiction, the sudden knock on the door made Adrian jump up in fright.

Before the door was pushed open, Adrian jumped back onto the bed with a guilty conscience.

"Oh, sir, are you awake?" A young girl with braided hair in a bun walked into the room with a smile.

Adrian pulled the covers up to his nose, not daring to look at her.

The girl in the white robe didn't mind Adrian's silence, and gently placed a tray on the table.

"Master Landis ordered us to make some sober drinks for you."

A clear crystal jug holds a clear green liquid that looks a lot like Molly's mint tea.

Only then did Adrian remember that he seemed to have drank a lot the night before.

"Then..." The cheerful-looking young girl smiled and handed Xiaolong a big cup. "Lord Landis said dragons seldom get drunk, right?"

After making sure she didn't see his previous thief behavior, Adrian boldly took the cup.

"Every dragon can hold a lot of alcohol!" The round belly sat up proudly.

"Really?" The girl sat on the edge of the bed, resting her chin in her hand, watching the little black dragon drink half of the cup in one go.

"Yes~" Adrian squinted his eyes and smashed his mouth.This thing tastes a little sweet, but it's not like a sweet and greasy fruit juice at all, but like a tea with sweet grass roots.

After drinking it, the throat is cool and comfortable.

"But weren't you drunk last night?"

"Who said that?" Little Black Dragon raised his head. "I'm not going to get drunk."

Don't even try to get him drunk with two casks of Cotata's Oldest Fireway Ale, but he still catches a young boar on the way home after three days at the Harvest Festival. Woolen cloth!

"Huh?" The girl tilted her head suspiciously to look at the proud little black dragon.

"But... didn't you wet Master Bello's bed yesterday?"

puff--

The poor gorgeous big bed was baptized wet twice in two days.

The girl was startled, and quickly got up and lifted the quilt.

It's a pity that a large green mark has been smeared on the pure white quilt.

"Oh, the quilt from last night is still in the laundry room." The girl took out the handkerchief again.

Adrian's mouth was still open, his jaw was ticking, and he looked extremely stupid.

"—bed-wetting—?" the little black dragon spoke with difficulty.

"That's right." The girl replied casually while helping him wipe his chin and neck: "Last night, Lord Landis suddenly ordered me to bring a clean quilt... At that time, you were still piled in the quilt, it was Bello We can only change the sheets if you are picked up by your lord... Look, I still remember the pink ribbon on your paw."

Adrian was already stunned.

The girl hurriedly picked up the wet quilt and stood up. "There's sausage and milk on the tray. If you're still hungry, go down the two corridors to the kitchen, or ask any of the maids to take you there. The color of wild berry juice is not easy to wash off. I'd better go to the laundry room right away. ..."

It wasn't until the girl's back disappeared outside the door that Adrian regained his senses in shock.

If possible, he just wanted to get back under the covers and sleep again, as if the girl hadn't said anything.

Or give him two more barrels of bar!

Adrian covered his face with his paws in pain.

However, he was a little vaguely impressed by her words.

The big bed like a cloud, the warm aroma, the tension of tossing and turning, and the ensuing...

Ah ah ah ah ah------

The little fat dragon was sad and angry.

Although his size has become smaller inexplicably, he is still a big dragon that has almost grown up!

bedwetting—

Adrian wanted to cry.

Did I really do such a shameful thing?

Ignoring the hot milk and sausages on the tray, Adrian floated out of the room in a trance.

Anyway, it had already been discovered, and after a night, even though he didn't know where it was, Adrian started to wander around flapping his little wings indifferently.

In fact, it's just sleepwalking that hit too hard.

So when the tail was grabbed, Adrian stopped abruptly in midair.

"Is the little thing taking a walk?" The pleasant low voice seemed to have been heard before.

Adrian turned hard—so he could draw his tail back.

"Who are you?" He hugged his tail and stepped back a little.

Landis poked Adrian's ear. "Don't remember me?"

Huh?Adrian put down his guard a little bit and recalled seriously. "Have we met?"

Landis felt that the little fat dragon in front of him was very dumbfounded thinking about it.

And last night...

But despite the laughter in his belly, Landis remained calm.

"You were drunk in the garden last night." Landis said with a serious expression. "I brought you back. Otherwise you would have spent the night in the garden."

"Ah, thank you..." Adrian couldn't remember why, so he subconsciously thanked him first.

"You don't need to thank me." Landis, who put on a kind look, took the opportunity to touch Adrian's head again. "But you should apologize to Bello."

"apologize?"

Landis grinned big: "You wet his bed, which is very rude."

clear.sky.clap.Thunder!

The little black dragon was stunned by Landis' words again.

"Urine. Bedwetting..." Adrian couldn't even speak clearly.

"Oops—you drank a lot, half the bed was wet—"

"Half a bed?" Adrian was hit hard again.

He must have passed out, otherwise the world would be spinning around.

"of course not.Landis was secretly admiring Adrian's terribly ashamed expression.

How could such a big little dragon wet half of the big bed?

But he actually believed it... Landis touched his chin.

"Then let me take you to find Bello? Little one."

Adrian hurriedly followed Landis who turned and left, not forgetting to protest loudly: "I'm going to be an adult!"

"Oh, a grown-up bedwetting dragon—"

"Ugh..."

Landis was very tall. Although he was walking, Adrian had to flap his wings twice to keep up with his long legs.

Adrian was nervously thinking about how to speak to the "Bello" in everyone's mouth.

Although the memory is fuzzy... bedwetting is more humiliating to a dragon of his age than having his treasure stolen... well, almost as humiliating.

Adrian didn't know how to speak.

In fact, he would rather pay any price to disappear from the world.

But he knew very well that no matter where it was, it was different from the Little Red Riding Hood house where everyone lived together.

They are not Yi Si who is unconditionally considerate, not Ani who can fight with him, not Werther who is cold-faced and soft-hearted, and Layton who is serious but careful...

I don't have the qualifications and position to be willful and shameless.

So even if he felt terribly ashamed, Adrian could only follow Landis honestly.

"So silent, the cat's tail swept your throat?" Landis preferred to tease him.

Adrian was too frustrated to speak.

"Bello won't make you uncomfortable." Landis flicked his ears and smiled reassuringly. "That guy is soft-hearted."

"Huh?" Adrian followed Landis blankly and stopped.He didn't notice that they had passed through several corridors, and the walls had changed from smooth marble with silver candlesticks to rough granite.

Landis stands in front of a black door and makes a "shh-" gesture.

Adrian also tensed up.

Landis pushed the door open.

Adrian took a deep breath.

Landis suddenly pushed the anxious Adrian into the door.

"Oh--?" Xiaolong was pushed through the door while he was still thinking about it, and he was so frightened that he turned his head instinctively.

The door was closed immediately.

Adrian touched his nose, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and fly into the room.

Good... warm room.

This was Adrian's first reaction.

The room was quiet save for the crackling of the firewood.

It was a deep room, dimly lit.

The little fat dragon cautiously flew to the inside of the corner.

It was a little brighter inside, and apart from a few big burning fireplaces in the empty room, there was only a high chair with its back facing the door.

"Eh...that...?" Adrian didn't dare to get any closer, so he had to speak out.

The people in the armchairs stood up at the sound.

As soon as Bello turned his head, he saw the little charmander from last night lowering his head in embarrassment.

"Is something wrong?" Bello couldn't be serious about him because of his chubby innocent look.

The child even had yesterday's pink ribbons tied around his paws.

"Are you Lord Bello?" Adrian didn't dare to look up.

Such a quiet room made him feel uncomfortable, as if he was disturbing something.

"I am." Bello made his tone as gentle as possible.

Sure enough, Adrian let go of the claws that were churning together.

But the good attitude of the other party made Adrian feel even more difficult to say.

"About last night... sorry."

Bello smiled. "Landis brought you here?"

Adrian nodded, and secretly glanced at "Lord Bello".

Although he only had a quick glance, Adrian still admired in his heart: It's so beautiful.

Different from Yisi's illusory delicacy, although Bello is also a stunning beauty, she is closer to the heroic beauty.

In the dimly lit room, the long white hair seemed to be shimmering.

"Don't pay too much attention to Landis." Bello signaled Adrian to approach.

"Sorry, this is not a place comfortable enough for reception."

Adrian shook his head violently. "It's warm here."

Seeing Xiaolong's serious eyes, Bello froze for a moment.

"By the way, you are a fire dragon..." Bello said softly. "Little Charmander...do you like this environment?"

Huh?Adrian was puzzled.

Only then did he realize that there was an unconcealable sadness in Bello's tone.

"Look, I'm Bailong." Bello drew a bitter arc. "So, even if it's my own child, I can't always accompany him."

Bailong prefers snow and cold.A room of this temperature is not comfortable for Bello.

child?

Adrian followed Bello's line of sight.

There seemed to be something in the largest fireplace in the room.

Adrian couldn't help but craned his neck to look.

It was an egg.

A quiet, crimson egg, lying in a raging flame.
