Reborn as the Dragon King's Son-In-Law

Chapter 120: Compensation

"Because I have returned your daughter to you, will you pay for any damage your daughter has done to my territory?"

The Dragon Emperor’s gaze incessantly shifted towards the place where his daughter had previously destroyed every uninhabited island. The expression shown by the Dragon Emperor at this moment was nothing but a cold one. After all, his daughter was one of the reasons why he had problems with the humans.

There was not a single day when the Dragon Emperor would imagine a time when he would have to give compensation to the Human Emperor. For some reason, the pride of the Dragon race was much greater than that of all the other living beings.

Allowing humans to dominate the Dragon race was enough to reduce the Dragon race’s prestige in the eyes of all living beings throughout the world. But unfortunately, the Dragon Emperor had no choice but to sigh. In the end, the Human Emperor and his subordinates relentlessly cast intimidating gazes towards the Dragon Emperor.

Most humans already knew how to intimidate the Dragon race, one of the races born with the highest dignity. Humans had even faced the Dragon race countless times. Instead of engaging in an all-out battle against the Dragon race, the humans chose to intimidate the dragons that had caused a disturbance within their territory.

Still, one of the reasons why the humans were able to intimidate the Dragon Emperor was because of the presence of the Human Emperor, who was now standing opposite him. As an emperor who ruled over an entire region of the Life Continent, the Human Emperor’s power was no less than that of the Dragon Emperor.

That was also the reason why the Dragon Emperor decided to hold peace talks within the Human Emperor’s territory. Even though the Dragon Emperor was the second strongest being in the entire world, he would not have any chance of winning against the combined forces of the countless humans.

"Hehe. Of course. I will give you one of our empire’s precious treasures. I’m sure you will all be satisfied after seeing what kind of treasure I will give you."

After pondering for a while, the Human Emperor nodded in satisfaction at the compensation the Dragon Emperor intended to give him. In the end, the precious treasure that the Dragon Emperor was referring to was one of the Twelve National Treasures of the Dragon Realm. Ever since the Dragon Realm was first established, the Twelve National Treasures had become the main target of every living being throughout the continent.

Obtaining one of the Twelve National Treasures of the Dragon Realm was no different from increasing the military strength of the Life Continent itself. Therefore, the Human Emperor felt happy when he learned about the compensation that the Dragon Emperor would give him.

"Very well. As expected of a doting father like you. For the sake of your beloved daughter, you are even willing to give one of your precious treasures to our Human race."

"Ck! Prometheus, you talk too much. But it doesn’t matter. I’m also doing this for the future of this world. At least this world will become much more interesting compared to the past."

A hint of curiosity appeared on the Human Emperor’s face as he listened to the mysterious words spoken by the Dragon Emperor. As a human who had existed for hundreds of thousands of years, the Human Emperor had experienced an overwhelming sense of boredom and could roam freely outside his palace at any time.

"Tell me more about your plans for the future of this world. I think I will join your plans as well."

Not a single happy expression appeared on the Dragon Emperor’s face when he heard the Human Emperor’s request to join his personal plan for world domination. From the beginning, the plans that the Dragon Emperor wanted to carry out were for his own personal interests. However, the Dragon Emperor couldn’t allow anyone other than himself to interfere with the plans that he had long wanted to accomplish.

Allowing a human to interfere with the Dragon Emperor’s plans to rule the entire world was no different from bringing destruction upon himself. But the Dragon Emperor had absolutely no intention of letting the Human Emperor join his plans. Instead, the Dragon Emperor slowly nodded before finally showing a confident expression in front of the Human Emperor.

"Hm. That’s a good idea. If you decide to join the plan I’ve been carrying out, I’ll be able to move more freely even if I have to face that crazy woman."

For some reason, a memory of the Human Emperor meeting the Silver Divine Dragon came flooding back into his mind. In fact, the Human Emperor admired the Dragon race as a powerful race. But even so, Lilith was the strongest among all the dragons throughout the world.

Deep within the Human Emperor’s heart, he felt a flutter as he recalled the figure of Lilith, who now endlessly appeared in his mind. Even though hundreds of years had passed, the Human Emperor’s love for Lilith would never disappear from the depths of his heart.

"Silver Divine Dragon... I hope that I will be able to meet a woman as charming as you once again. I’m sure she will fall in love with me once we meet again, sooner or later."

The Dragon Emperor’s gaze revealed nothing but indifference. It was normal for the Human Emperor to have feelings for Lilith. But even so, the Dragon Emperor felt disgusted when he saw the expression shown by the Human Emperor as he remembered Lilith.

Even Celestia couldn’t hold back her nauseated expression when she saw the strange expression shown by the Human Emperor, who looked like a perverted man. For some reason, Celestia’s view of the Human Emperor as a powerful ruler began to crumble and turned into that of a perverted ruler.

’This person is also one of that old woman’s admirers...! Hmph! He is completely untrustworthy. I hope Father won’t completely trust that perverted man.’

Small snorts began to come from Celestia’s nose. After some time had passed, both Celestia and the Dragon Emperor decided to move away from where the Human Emperor was standing.

Luckily, the Dragon Emperor did not forget to give the Human Emperor a communication device so that they could communicate with each other. Since both parties were now cooperating, the Dragon Emperor could move more freely whenever he wandered throughout the Dragon Realm.
