This Life, I Will Be the Protagonist

Chapter 258 Come Back to Dragon Island with Me

Rita wasn't in a rush, but Nivalis, who had already felt the allure of national treasures, was getting impatient. The moment they walked out of the alchemy shop, Nivalis, still invisible and crouching on Rita's head, patted her: "Why don't you come back to Dragon Island with me? I want to ask the Holy Grail and North Year what this thing really is. If they don't know, the elder dragon definitely will."

Rita thought back to the first time she met Nivalis, comparing the dragon then and the dragon now...

The dragon was still the same dragon, not much fatter, still the same stunning creature. But as for the aura...

If Nivalis used to be: Extreme! Brightness!!!, then now, Nivalis was more like: Hehehe~ Aurora Shield biubiubiu~~

They had only known each other for a few months, yet this dragon had been spoiled to the point of acting like a pet... Could she even dare to go to Dragon Island?

If she didn't go, Nivalis's family might suspect that their baby dragon had gone astray. But if she did go...

Rita hesitated and finally rejected: "Your home? I'd rather not go. Can't you go back alone?"

Nivalis sighed, "I could, but you've contracted with me, and according to the rules, I belong to you now. If you don't go with me back to Dragon Island, the Holy Grail and North Year will definitely be angry with you..."

Rita: "......" The more you talk, the more ambiguous it gets.

Nivalis: "So, will you go?"

Thinking about the fact that she only earned 1000 honor points for asking the Special Affairs Bureau to help avoid Lania Kaia's extermination, but after collecting the fourth Mahjong tile, every one of them gave her 10,000 honor points... she had to get to the bottom of what was going on with the bone tiles.@@@@

Even without considering the bone tiles, just the fact that Mistblade had smelled the scent of the dragon race on her made it worth a visit to Dragon Island. She needed to figure out how to get some Dragon Nest specialties to enhance her own aura.

Nivalis was definitely the one who had gone astray! She had done nothing wrong! It was North Year and the Holy Grail who needed to reflect on their actions!

Rita decided not to overthink it: "Fine! But we'll stop by Blue Star first. I have something to deal with."

Nivalis immediately began pondering what gifts to bring back to Dragon Island. Rita's card was at Nivalis's disposal, and there was plenty of pocket change—money that could buy a lot back in Blue Star.

Back in Blue Star, Rita got busy again.

[Rita]: "Endure the bitterness before the sweetness, we've all been through it."

After she sent that, she immediately felt like the words sounded too dry, almost irritating. She hurriedly changed the topic.

[Rita]: "I'll keep an eye out for things that might help you."

[Rita]: "Should I send it to you?"

[Rick]: "Thanks, sis."

After sending the items, Rita waited for the [Disguise!] skill to cool down, then set off alone to find Rick and Black Jade. She had already confirmed the address when applying to the Special Affairs Bureau.

There was no way she could feel at ease without seeing Rick's trustworthiness firsthand. Read latest stories on My Virtual Library Empire

About half an hour away from her destination, Rita used her disguise skill. She circled around the area, sprayed some perfume, and applied a magic potion to ensure her scent was masked before heading to Black Jade's location.

In truth, Black Jade wasn't a Moon Fox and didn't have much expertise in scent, so Rita was being overly cautious. But the more she knew, the more concerns she had.

For example, after Maple Cang had easily detected the skill she used, Rita had decided to create two sets of signature skills. One set for Blue Star, and another set for when she disguised herself as different identities.

It was best to have a set of melee skills as well, to completely separate her true identity from her long-range abilities.

Soon, disguised as an Oak Owl, Rita appeared outside the manor.

Before getting close, she noticed players guarding the area. She had to carefully avoid them using [Hunter's Eye]. If that didn't work, she would use her [Orbit] skill, making herself invisible and flying above them to avoid detection.

From a distance, she spotted Flood Dragon near the lake, and Rick was in the water, scrubbing Black Jade's scales.

Unlike before when Rick wore expensive branded clothes and was always pristine, now he was dressed in a simple T-shirt and large shorts, sweat dripping down his face.

Rita glanced at the time: 11:47 PM. Wow, not only had the son-in-law become Black Jade's personal bath attendant, but he was also working the night shift!

She had to get closer to gather more information, so she flew in a bit closer. She wasn't worried about Black Jade spotting her. If that happened, she'd just zap the dragon with a Pikachu attack and give it a little lesson.
