118: Dragon Blood Tempering of Others

Compared to Doria, Karona was more rational. She knew that possibility was unlikely, so her words carried a hint of disbelief.

However, concern still dominated her expression.

Hearing this, Arthur realized that the damaged clothes from his sparring session with Joao had caused a misunderstanding between the two women.

He was pleased by the concern of the two women, and quickly explained:

"I just had a Breakthrough in strength and felt itching to try it out, so I fought Joao for a bit. No one attacked me, and I wasn't injured. Rest assured!"

"That's good. If anyone truly dares to hurt you, I will definitely have Mother avenge you!"

"It's good that you weren't hurt!"

While explaining, Arthur also released the aura of an Earth Knight expert, proving that he wasn't lying.

After hearing Arthur's explanation, Doria and Karona immediately felt relieved.

But then came astonishment, because Arthur had actually achieved a Breakthrough to Earth Knight before the age of eighteen, which was extremely rare among Human Kingdoms.

At least there was no such Genius in the Kate Kingdom!

Only in the Empires at the pinnacle of power would such a person occasionally appear!

Yet Arthur had achieved it, which naturally surprised them!

"The Dragon truly lives up to its name as a Legendary Creature; even its blood has such tremendous effects!"

Doria and Karona knew about Arthur soaking in the dragon blood. They had only seen the dragon blood once, in Arthur's possession.

Seeing its extraordinary power now, they couldn't help but exclaim in admiration!

Seeing their adorable, surprised expressions, Arthur smiled internally!

Then, seeing that the two women were together, Arthur decided to give them the dragon blood he had prepared for them both at the same time!

Since the matter was important, after talking with the two relieved women, Arthur unconsciously arrived at the castle's garden. Seeing that no one was around, he spoke seriously:

"I have a gift for you. You've seen the magic of the dragon blood; with it, you can also achieve rapid Breakthroughs like me!"

As soon as he said this, Arthur expected to see expressions of ecstatic joy on their faces.

After all, he had just demonstrated the miraculous nature of dragon blood. With this item, the strength of the two women would surely shoot up rapidly.

It must be known that on the Continent of Gods, where strength reigns supreme, almost everyone has an inexplicable obsession with power!

The two women were indeed excited for a moment, but it quickly faded.

Because they both thought simultaneously that dragon blood, such a precious and extraordinary item, couldn't possibly have extra portions to give to others.

Earlier, Stanley, the Water Attribute Giant Dragon, had nearly destroyed the Mermaid Kingdom. The blood of such a powerful expert was not easily obtained.

If Arthur shared the dragon blood with them, his own speed of strength improvement would slow down.

Compared to the strength Arthur needed for his constant travels, the two women, who mostly stayed and enjoyed themselves in the city, were not in a hurry to possess great strength.

Thinking of this, Doria and Karona quickly snapped out of their excitement.

Although they couldn't accept Arthur's gift, they understood his intention. After exchanging a glance, they replied with both emotion and determination:

"We cannot take the dragon blood. If you share it with us, your own speed of strength improvement will slow down!

We are not in a rush to improve our strength, so we cannot accept this gift!"

Karona's words reflected Doria's feelings, so the latter immediately added:

"Exactly, we cannot accept it!"

The reaction of the two women was unexpected, causing Arthur to be stunned for a moment.

The two women, unaware that Arthur possessed an ample supply of dragon blood, had misunderstood the situation and refused his gift.

However, this misunderstanding also let Arthur know that he hadn't given his gift to the wrong people!

After all, on the Continent of Gods, the willingness to give one's Cultivation Resources to others is extremely rare; even blood-related family members usually cannot do it.

Although the two women were not giving, the courage required to refuse was not much less than the courage required to give!

Arthur was touched by their reaction, and a brilliant smile appeared on his face as he spoke playfully:

"Who told you that the amount of dragon blood I have can only support my Cultivation alone!

Just accept what I give you without worry!"

To back up his words, Arthur immediately handed two space rings containing dragon blood, one in each hand, to the two women.

Listening to Arthur's words and looking at the space rings before them, the two women showed expressions of curiosity.

They wanted to know exactly what extent Arthur meant by "not lacking dragon blood"!

By checking the amount of dragon blood inside the space rings, they could determine how much truth there was in Arthur's words!

With this thought, they quickly accepted the space rings from Arthur's hands. After focusing their minds to check the contents, looks of shock appeared on their pretty faces!

Because they both discovered that their respective space rings contained a full six hundred cubic meters of dragon blood—an amount nearly equivalent to the entire blood volume of one Giant Dragon!

With this much dragon blood given to just one person, did Arthur recently kill several Giant Dragons? But no news of that has spread!

You must understand that the mass death of Giant Dragons, a Legendary species, would absolutely be a major event on the Continent of Gods; it's impossible for no one to know!

The reason the two women guessed that several Giant Dragons had been slain...

...was because they knew Arthur was openly giving gifts to both of them, meaning the quantity of the gifts should be similar.

Calculating this way, that meant two Giant Dragons had died for no reason!

As for the idea of raising them, neither of them even considered it.

Because they knew that given the pride of Dragons, it was impossible for them to agree to this kind of regular bloodletting; it would be more painful than killing them!

Moreover, such an act would provoke the wrath of the entire Dragon Community, and almost no one would dare to do it.

Therefore, their thought was that Arthur had somehow slain several more Giant Dragons.

Giant Dragons are Peak Experts among the Legendary, so how could they not be surprised that such experts had died without their knowledge!

As for the authenticity of the dragon blood, they had seen it when Arthur previously soaked in it, and it was no different.

After thinking all this through, they understood the weight of the space rings in their hands even more clearly, and it took them a while to recover from their astonishment.

Following that was immense excitement, because with the dragon blood, their strength could also rapidly increase.

Before, seeing Arthur's strength rapidly increase, while they were happy for him, they were also secretly anxious.

With their current strength, which wasn't even Gold Knight or Magister, they would only become mere "vases" beside Arthur later on.

They did not want to cause trouble for Arthur!

Now that they had the dragon blood, their strength could quickly rise, allowing them to keep up with Arthur. This resolved their worry, so they were naturally excited!

Therefore, their joy in obtaining the dragon blood was solely to keep pace with Arthur; the excitement of rapid strength improvement was secondary!
