Chapter 16 Discussing the Dragon Clan's Future

Tuesday, December 26, 2034.

Devil's Planet, Dragon Island, Dragon Palace, 16:00 p.m.

Morgana had demanded that dragons should honor her as their queen. She had offered them the sincerity that they couldn't refuse. She had summoned the Statue of the God of Dragon that dragons had been searching for one million years.

Gael who was the king of dragons, he had bowed down his pride and stubborn dragon head. He had vowed that dragon clan would honor Morgana as their queen. He had trusted dragon clan's future to Morgana.

Morgana stood at Grayson's bone dragon skull head, looking upon those dragons. Those dragons who bowed down their pride and stubborn dragon heads, swearing to honor Morgana as their queen, they would be Morgana's loyal soldiers, unfurling their wings and fighting for Morgana.

Morgana saw dragons were unhappy, when they had to bow down their pride and stubborn dragon heads. She thought in dragon clan's position, and understood why they were unhappy. 'They are unhappy, because they have to lay down their pride and honor Morgana as their queen. They are unhappy, because they realize how weak they are, when they are faced with Morgana. They are unhappy, because they don't know whether future is brighter or it's darker.'

"Long live, your majesty! Long live, your majesty! Long live, your majesty..." Royal guards cheered with delight, yelling at sky. They thought. 'My queen is the most beautiful and the most powerful Goddess in the universe!'

Morgana saw royals guards were happy, when they witnessed their queen conquered dragon clan. She thought in royal guards' position, and understood why they were happy. 'They are happy, because my victory lifted their spirits. They are happy, because their enemy's pains is their source of joys. They are happy, because they know they are following a powerful queen.'

Morgana opened a portal, sending the Statue of the God of Dragon back the Queen's Treasury. She had to select the God of Dragon's inheritor, considering that every dragon desired for the God of Dragon's power.

"Dragons! You just need to respect one person, your queen! Honor me as your queen, you'll fly out of this small island and explore this vast world outside the island. You'll be proud of yourselves one day. I promise you!" Morgana made a speech, looking upon dragons. She thought. 'Queen is not just an address, but also it's a responsibility.'

"Your majesty! Permit me lead you to Dragon Palace. There are many affairs that are required to be discussed." Gael invited, raising his dragon head and looking unto Morgana. He thought. 'Whether future is brighter or it's darker, it's up to Morgana's attitude toward dragon clan.'

"Royal guards set a camp in Dragon Island! Grayson stays with royal guards!" Morgana commanded, setting out to Dragon Palace with Gael. She thought. 'It's rumored that Dragon Palace is full of treasures.'

"Yes, your majesty!" Royal guards replied, setting a camp at the seaside. They thought. 'I don't like this island. There's no fun.'

"Yes, your majesty!" Grayson replied, diving under ocean. He thought. 'I shall come back the dragon palace ruin. But where's the ruin?'

Dragon Palace was Gael's home. It's a massive cave that filled with jewels and golds. The floor of the cave was paved with golds. The walls of the cave were decorated with jewels. The lamps were mermaid's pearls.

Morgana was surprised that there were many treasures. She understood why there were many treasures. 'Dragons have a habit of collecting treasures. They have been accumulating treasures for one million years. Their generational accumulation might be more than the God of Dragon's lifelong wealth.'

"Your majesty! Permit me lead you the way!" Gael whispered, standing on gold floor and looking unto nine massive entrances ahead. He thought. 'There were nine massive entrances. The middle entrance is the entrance to the inner palace. The other entrances are the entrances to different caves.'

Gael trod on gold floor, walking through the walls decorated with jewels into the middle massive entrance. The massive entrance was small for Gael's massive dragon body. It's just allowed that one dragon passed through the dark tunnel.

The deeper Gael was walking, the more massive tunnel Gael could feel. He could even flutter his dragon's wings, when he was reaching inner palace. He came to the inner palace which was a more massive cave that's his home.

Morgana opened a portal, shifting to inner palace. She saw the palace was more massive than mountain. The floor of the palace was paved with magic crystals. The walls of the palace were decorated with different kind of magic jewelry and weapons. The lamps were dragon's pearls.

"I can't believe there are so many treasures." Morgana whispered, looking around the palace. She thought. 'The magic crystals in here are just the floor. But each magic crystal could buy many magic potions in the outside.'

"Ocean is the greatest treasury, there are countless treasures. We just collect a part of treasures under ocean." Gael said with pride, laying his dragon body on treasure bed. He thought. 'Dragon's Ocean is generous and mysterious. Dragon Island is the child of Dragon's Ocean. We can ask for everything from Dragon's Ocean.'

"You have the countless wealth, the unmatched power and generational accumulation. What else do you want?" Morgana asked, looking into Gael's giant dragon eyes. She thought. 'Dragons were born with generational accumulation. They don't want anything, because they already have everything.'

"We don't want wealth, because we already have the countless wealth. We don't want power, because we already have the unmatched power. We don't want what we already have. We want what we can't have." Gael replied, implying what they desired. He thought. 'We can't have our Gods. I'm always worried of that we can't protect our properties, if we are not strong enough.'

"I know what you mean. You have equal right of the pursuits of happiness and the pursuits of power. Dragons deserve what you ought to deserve, as devils do." Morgana promised, treating all clans equally. She thought. 'Everybody was born equally. Each clan deserves equal rights.'

"Thank your majesty! You're the most brilliant and the most beautiful Goddess in the universe!" Gael praised, flattering Morgana. He thought. 'Finally, I don't have to worry about that I might be disposed to the corner of universe, if I became a God.'

"Can I ask you a few questions?" Morgana asked, looking at Gael. She thought. 'I'm gonna group a dragon knight army. This is a chance to achieve my goal.'

"Yes, your majesty! You're the queen! We shall honor your command." Gael replied, looking at Morgana. He thought in another way. 'Dragon clan doesn't have our God to defend for dragons' rights anymore. If we are strong enough, one day we will take back everything that belong to us.'

"Do you want to become a God?" Morgana asked, raising his ambition. She thought. 'Dragons can live a long life, but one day they will eventually be faced with death, if they can't be a God. How wouldn't he want to become a God?'

"Yes!" Gael replied with desire, desiring for being a God. He thought. 'If I became a God, I shall have enough power to protect Dragon Island.'

"Do you commit to rebuild Dragon Island?" Morgana asked, looking into Gael's dragon eyes. She thought. 'Rebuilding Dragon Island is one of the God of Dragon's wills. As he says so. If you committed to rebuild Dragon Island, you will inherit my lifelong wealth.'

"Yes!" Gael replied with longing, longing to rebuild Dragon Island. He thought. 'I used to dream of rebuilding Dragon Island. I want to build a floating city. But we have lost the technologies to build a floating city.'

"Do you commit to lead dragon clan be great again?" Morgana asked, doing her survey. She thought. 'Leading dragons be great again is the God of Dragon's another will. As he says so. If you committed to lead dragon clan be great again, you will inherit the high rank God's power.'

"Yes!" Gael replied with ambition, craving for leading dragons be great again. He thought. 'I used to dream of leading dragon clan be great again. I want to restore dragon clan's glory. But we don't have the God of Dragon anymore.'

"Do you commit to offer dragon clan's protection for ten thousand years?" Morgana asked, keeping doing her survey. She thought. 'Offering dragons protection for ten thousand years is the God of Dragon's last will. As he says so. If you committed to offer dragon clan's protection for ten thousand years, you will inherit ten thousand years wisdom.'

"Yes!" Gael replied with excitement. He thought. 'If I inherited the God of Dragon's power, I shall offer dragon clan's protection for ten thousand years. Is she gonna permit me inherit the God of Dragon's power?'

"Do you commit to permit me set a military camp in Dragon Island?" Morgana asked, setting a trick. She thought. 'Setting a military camp in Dragon Island is my intention. He can't say no after saying yes for four questions.'

"Yes!" Gael replied loudly without hesitation.

"Remember what you have committed! Let's discuss the plan of setting military camp in Dragon Island!" Morgana smiled, looking at Gael. She thought. 'I just want him to permit me set a military camp in Dragon Island."

"Wait! Wait for a minute! Do you mean you want to set a military camp in Dragon Island?" Gael asked, realizing falling into a trick. He thought. 'What have I just committed? I thought she was gonna permit me inherit the God of Dragon's power! What I care most is the plan to select the God of Dragon's inheritor.'

"Yes! I'm gonna set a military camp in Dragon Island. In additional of that royal guards are gonna find their dragon companions. They'll be a dragon knight army. They'll improve themselves with dragons. They'll honor Dragon Island's rules. I promise you." Morgana replied, looking at Gael. She thought. 'Royal guards shall stay here, and explore hidden treasures under ocean.'

"I can allow royal guards set a military camp in Dragon Island. I can allow them find their dragon companions. But I don't allow royal guards interfere dragon clan's affairs. That's my deadline." Gael said, telling dragon clan's deadline. He thought. 'Dragon clan just honors Morgana as our queen. We don't like devils.'

"Dragons just need to honor one person, your queen!" Morgana promised, honoring dragon clan's deadline. She thought. 'I see an unmatched future in dragon clan. Dragon clan is a slumber dragon. One day this dragon will wake up and rise again. As sun will always rise in the next day.'
