"You might not believe this, but I never had any hopes of riding a Shadowflame Dragon, and I'm not interested in the position of Grand Duke either," Russell told his cousin Mel who had come to visit, speaking candidly.
It was indeed the truth. With Little Dream Dragon by his side, he naturally had no expectations for a Shadowflame Dragon. As for the Grand Duke's title, he really wasn't interested because his goal from the beginning had been to found a new country.
"You're not even interested in becoming the Grand Duke, Russell, do you want to ascend to the heavens?" Mel was scoffing in disbelief. "Or are you planning to take King Ares' place, go to the Scorching Torrent Kingdom to marry a princess, and vie for the role of heir?"
"How could that be."
"Indeed, it's unlikely. Not to mention that King Ares has many direct descendants, even if we pass away, he might still be alive and well," Mel said.
