Evil Dragon: The young dragon I picked up keeps planning on becoming an empress

Naughty.

The naughty side of the Evil Dragon made Lucia somewhat afraid.

Before, she had wanted to summon an old friend who had passed away, to ask her to repay a debt.

Unable to summon her deceased friend, she had then considered summoning a formidable enemy who had died many years ago.

Just last night, there had been an Evil Dragon that seemed very mature, so why had it shown its naughty side to her, a "pretend Young Dragon," after only one day?

The Evil Dragon was definitely an oddity among Black Dragons.

A normal Black Dragon wouldn't resort to necromancy and would scorn learning such magic.

To a normal Black Dragon, a strong body, sharp claws, fierce fangs, and corrosive Dragon Breath that could melt anything were their ultimate weapons.

Furthermore, the Black Dragon race was immune to most primal magic and had even less desire to sneak into the Human World to quietly learn such magic.

Evil Dragon Lance was an exception; he not only knew necromancy but could also cast fire-based primal magic, as she had just witnessed a small flame ignite at the tip of the Evil Dragon's claw.

A normal Black Dragon couldn't do this.

This morning she had told the Evil Dragon, "If you're bored, you could summon your old friends with necromancy to play cards with you."

Those words were meant to ease the Evil Dragon's longing and sorrow for his friend, and they also contained a bit of jest.

She thought that although the Evil Dragon knew many things, it was unlikely he could summon the undead, as necromancy belonged to the dark primal magic in the Human World.

Very much despised.

In the Human World, those who could sense the presence of primal energy mostly chose magic from the Light System.

For example, Light Magic, Solar Magic, Ice Magic, Rain Magic, Thunder Magic, and other types of primal magic.

Necromancy was something no one actively learned, nor would they join a necromancy academy or dark primal energy tower.

The Evil Dragon was strange—inherently being an Evil Dragon was enough to make him a target for persecution, yet upon transforming into a human and infiltrating the Human World, he even dared to learn necromancy. Was he not afraid of being discovered by temple officials and taken away to be locked up in a heresy tribunal?

Being both an Evil Dragon and a necromancer could also mean being slaughtered on the spot by a Temple Knight.

The knights of the temples were very strong, and the Holy Knights even stronger; not to mention that some temples even had Dragon Knights.

Combining a Giant Dragon with a knight, the combat power was absurdly strong.

"Lance, it's still not a good idea to summon your former formidable enemies from hell. This is your home. If they come up... and see you are a Black Dragon, they might attack you directly... The aftershocks of the fight... could destroy your home...

You've lived so long and have become stronger than before, while they've been dead for so long, they might have also grown much stronger in hell.

If a battle breaks out between you, you will be at a disadvantage..."

Lucia wracked her brains to come up with a reason to stop the Evil Dragon from summoning his old enemies.

The Dragon's Den was important.

Or is it more fun to scare off old enemies?

It was up to the Evil Dragon to decide.

In any case, the possibility she mentioned did exist.

"The possibility you mentioned exists, but the chance of it happening is small," he said. "There's such a provision in the 'Necromancer's Summoning Contract': the summoned undead must not turn against the Spirit Summoner.

An undead who violates this provision will die, and if it doesn't die and returns to hell, it will become food for the Hellhounds. Therefore, under normal circumstances, the undead summoned from hell by a necromancer will unconditionally obey the necromancer's orders.

Of course, there are some commands that the undead can disobey without any punishment."

Lucia was baffled. What was a Necromancer's Summoning Contract?

She didn't have any contact with such a thing. Although Eva was a Dark Wizard, she was a Cursing Master who didn't summon the undead.

Her way of fighting was to use ancient curses, afflicting her enemies and making them lose their ability to fight instantly.

As for necromancers, she knew that they liked to desecrate the dead and manipulate the corpses of the deceased for battle.

Spurned by the major temples, feared and loathed by the people.

And then, nothing.

As a princess of the empire, she would not actively seek out necromancers. If one day there was a true need to use a necromancer, it would be Eva who dealt with it.

Such dark necromancers who shun the light are not directly contacted by those in power, some nobles prefer to cultivate them in the shadows.

"I don't know what a necromantic summoning contract stipulation is."

"It's normal for you not to know, most people in the human world don't, let alone a young dragon like you who has hardly ever encountered necromancers.

I'll give you a brief explanation, there are two types of necromancers...."

"I know this much, one type is the Evil Dragon necromancer, the other is all other necromancers."

"???"

Upon hearing the Evil Dragon mention there were two types of necromancers, Lucia grinned, preempting the Evil Dragon's words… and spoke for him.

The Evil Dragon only talked about two types.

Certainly, it had to be Evil Dragons in a category of their own, and the other necromancers in another.

Indeed, he was quite a self-absorbed Evil Dragon.

Though he was, in fact, a rather exceptional Evil Dragon.

Having never encountered other giant dragons, the young dragon couldn't guarantee that there weren't any on the continent superior to the Evil Dragon.

Even if there weren't any on the continent, there surely must be some on Dragon Island, which had been missing for who knows how many years, dragons surpassing Evil Dragon Lance.

Like the Golden Giant Dragons that symbolize light and wealth.

And the Silver Dragons that symbolize the silver moon and glory.

Let's not even talk about the Red Dragons, emblematic of evil and destruction, purely and utterly Evil Dragons.

More destructive than Black Dragons, with stronger combat prowess than Black Dragons.

If a Red Dragon were to appear in the human world as an Evil Dragon, and if legendary heroes or a brave team of warriors did not set out to hunt the Evil Dragon, it would probably take deploying an army to handle it.

"If you understand my words in that way... it's not entirely wrong, that's one perspective. However, when I talk about there being two types of necromancers, I mean: one type who have signed contracts with hell, and one type who haven't."

Necromancers who have signed contracts with hell summon the dead legally and ethically, they don't bully ordinary people, and they certainly don't control the souls of the recently deceased without cause, nor do they manipulate the corpses of the deceased.

Most necromancers in the human world who enjoy causing trouble are those who have not signed contracts with hell. They act as they please, unscrupulously pursuing power, and it's because of their existence that the reputation of necromancers among humans continues to plummet.

Until they become like rats crossing the street, everyone shouting 'hit them!' Such necromancers... some may be wanted and have a bounty issued by hell itself."

"???"

Are there actually necromancers capable of forming cooperative contracts with hell?

If the Evil Dragon hadn't said so, she would never have believed that necromancers could actually cooperate with hell.

It's somewhat like the relationship between clergy and the gods of their temples.

Similar, yet not entirely the same.

"Then Lance, have you signed a contract with hell?"

"I have, I'm a necromancer who cooperates with hell. Even the divine servants of the temples, knowing who I am, have to speak to me politely when they see me."

"Is that so powerful?"

Lance grinned.

The young dragon envied him, the Evil Dragon's experiences... thrilling, exciting... and interesting.

If she became an emperor, she would also want to have such fun.

"That sounds great, if I were to become an emperor in the human world... could I also be so lawless... do as I please, play however I want to play?"
