Chapter 313 - 308 You’re Not Qualified Enough
The baby dragon inherited a significant body filled with practical knowledge from its parents, deeply buried in its memory, unnoticed and unused, until the moment it is needed.
Perhaps its innate pride is the main culprit. Dragons might not even care about the gods who created them, and under normal circumstances, no dragon would willingly become someone’s student.
Upon hearing that Leon, as a dragon, actually had a teacher living in Bern, Isily was genuinely surprised and asked, "You came to Bern to find your teacher?"
"Yes." Leon thought highly of Edwin, for a simple reason: Although Edwin didn’t teach him for long, Edwin helped him during his most challenging times. "It’s been decades since I last saw him—I wonder if he still remembers me?"
"Who is it? Tell me; maybe I know them," Isily said. "I know several Silver Dragons living in Bern—some are merchants, some are professors in academies, and others are royal advisers."
"You definitely don’t know my teacher, because he’s not a Silver Dragon, not even a dragon—just a human." Leon laughed.
"A human?" Isily widened her eyes at Leon’s words, finding it hard to imagine that such a powerful dragon... slaying the Storm Predecessor and driving away the Kraken—if those tales weren’t false—would have a human teacher. But her sixth sense remained genuine. "If it’s a human, he must be a Legendary Warrior, Mage, or perhaps a knowledgeable scholar."
"Or an artist?" Isily added.
"You know, for some reason," Isily continued, "Imperial people commonly think Belen people are all drunken barbarians, yet Belen people are incredibly gifted in literature, art, painting, dance, and music."
"Just an ordinary mage," Leon replied, thinking to himself: Warriors can train a powerful body through years of effort, Priests can gain favor from the gods through devoted faith and unceasing dedication, but mages rely heavily on innate talent.
Leon suddenly laughed, realizing he might have misunderstood something. The fact that Edwin couldn’t defeat Anglistra didn’t mean Edwin was weak—defeating an adult Red Dragon with a nickname is no simple feat. He said: "I can’t call him an ordinary mage; he’s still quite strong. Let’s just say he’s a bit short of being a Legendary Mage."
