Chapter 849 Father and Daughter

Over the years in the human world, Maggie has imagined more than once what it would be like to meet her father again.

Every time she imagined it was different from the scene in front of her.

The black dragon clad in mechanical armor stared at Sir Gorosh standing in front of him. The magic spar lamps around the tarmac illuminated the entire square. After the accident was resolved, Maggie found that she was not as nervous as she thought.

She even smiled again: "Tomorrow I will apply for repairs here. The pit you stepped on, father, is a big problem."

Ser Gorosh spread his hands. "At least it's not all my problem."

Maggie was stunned, and after two seconds of stunned she looked at her father unexpectedly: "Are you kidding me?"

"I've been studying with Ser Xsimir for a long time..." Gorosh said with a hint of embarrassment, "After you left... I thought that when you got home you wouldn't be complaining about your father being rigid. It's like a stone, you can't even hear jokes..."

The long giant tail of the black dragon suddenly swung unconsciously in the clearing, and the cuticle scratched a string of bright sparks on the solid ground.

"Looks like you've had a good time in the human world," Ser Gorosh coughed lightly, looking up at his daughter, "the Cecil has made for you such an amazing suit of armor, more than any king or knight. The armor is amazing, and it must not be easy to make it."

"This is the Wing of Steel, it can let the congenitally deformed dragons fly freely," Maggie shook her neck gently, and layers of light floated on the surface of the armor plate of her upper body, "You are right, it took an amazing amount of time to manufacture it. man and material resources, but it was not for me alone, it was just the first set of Wings of Steel."

"The first set..." Ser Gorosh immediately heard the hidden meaning in Maggie's words, his eyes widened, "You mean, the Cecil designed this armor for all dragonborn, it Is it... a mass-produced item?"

Having just come into contact with the investment plans and trade plans of Gawain Cecil, Jazz's thoughts immediately turned to the direction of "commodities".

"You can understand that," Maggie nodded slightly, "but it is not in the directory of regular trade. His Majesty Gawain knows some constraints of the Holy Dragon Duchy, so this armor is currently only my personal 'gift'. I'm showing it to you this way so that you can judge whether it can appear in front of Grand Duke Balogar. If so, Steel Wing will start mass production, if not,

There will always be only this set of steel wings in the world. "

Ser Gorosh listened to his daughter's words with astonishment and thought, and after more than ten seconds of contemplation, he finally broke his silence: "...Maggie, Cecil has already given me too many surprises and shocks, and Now this accident is the biggest of them all.

"I'm afraid I can't give you an answer right away... This thing is too amazing, and you know, it is blatantly challenging the traditional order of the Holy Dragon Principality. If this thing is really productive, you and I can imagine the scene young. I am afraid that the dragonborn will have it at any cost, and then fly freely among the sacred mountains of the north. The principality is indeed undergoing some changes now, and we are even actively reaching out to the human world and conducting trade with the south, but this does not mean We are ready to break all traditions."

This answer was not surprising to Maggie, she just felt regret and sighed in regret: "I know it will be like this. The Holy Dragon Principality has countless traditions and taboos, but there are always some traditions in thousands of years. The only thing that has changed is the taboo on the sky... It has never changed. Father, I'm really curious, what is there in the sky, so that our winged creatures these days resist it so much?"

"...I was as curious as you when I was young," Ser Gorosh shook his head after silence. "However, His Majesty Balogar and the Dragonblood Council will tell you that the highest taboo is the highest taboo, including Asking about the reasons for the taboo is itself taboo. Maggie, as a courtier to Her Majesty Balogar and your father, I can only tell you that the only 'tolerance' behind this taboo is at least south of the extreme northern mountains. where you can fly."

"South of the extreme northern mountains...?" Maggie noticed this strange limitation and couldn't help but repeat in a low voice, "Why is it south of the extreme northern mountains? Could there be something in the north...?"

Ser Gorosh sighed and revealed a secret known only to some of the upper dragonborn: "That's the direction of Tallond."

Maggie was stunned, not knowing what to say for a while.

Ser Gorosh shook his head: "In any case, I will still pass on the matter of Iron Wings to Archduke Balogar, and for whatever reason, it must be known to the Archduke Dragonblood and the Council of Dragonblood. In addition, I would also like to express my gratitude to His Majesty Gawain Cecil for this gift he gave you, and for his consideration of the traditional taboos of the Holy Dragon Duchy. Humans have mastered the technology to make such steel wings, but I didn't directly use it for profit, but asked you to consult my opinion. As two alien races who had no intersection, I think this is a considerable degree of respect."

Ser Gorosh's response made the atmosphere between father and daughter a little stiff, and the two were silent and fell into their own thoughts, but soon, Maggie asked another question: "Father, if some young Dragonborn is willing to accept a certain degree of supervision and restraint, only operate in the southern human kingdom, and only use steel wings within the specified scope, do you think the Dragonblood Council and the Great Guild allow it?"

Ser Gorosh obviously hadn't thought in this direction before, and he couldn't help but feel a little stunned at this time, and after a short reaction he frowned: "You mean to let the young dragonborn come to Cecil, just to use Experience flying with these mechanical armors? This..."

"Strictly speaking, it's an international student, father," Maggie immediately corrected Ser Gorosh. "The private communication channel between Cecil and the Holy Dragon Duchy and the official international student channel are about to open, right? Then? The dragonborn who came to Cecil naturally escaped the 'no-fly zone' of the extreme northern mountains. Just like me, flying with steel wings is obviously not a violation of traditional taboos. For both countries, this is not even a problem. When it comes to 'trade', Cecil just produces these devices on his own land, not selling to the North, and the Dragonborn are just experiencing some 'local items' on Cecil's land..."

Maggie's quick words made Ser Gorosh's eyes widen, and in the end he was even a little stunned. It was not until Maggie's voice fell that the sergeant looked at his daughter with a strange expression: "Maggie Ji, where did you...get such weird...ideas? You never..."

Maggie opened her mouth: "I..."

"My child, you really learned too much in the human world, and learned their cunning at the same time. You are even a bit like Ms. Asarena in this regard," Gorosh's tone was a bit dumbfounding, "You The way of thinking is now almost like a human being!"

Asharena, who was maintaining the soundproof barrier not far away, shouted in dissatisfaction: "Hey! I'm just standing here to listen!"

Maggie winked at Gorosh. "Father, whatever my way of thinking, at least what I'm saying is logical, isn't it?"

"I..." Gorosh hesitated for a moment, then shrugged helplessly with a wry smile, "Well, it is true from a certain angle. I will think about it carefully, and then tell the Archduke."

Then he frowned and said to Maggie, "Son, we haven't seen each other for many years. Besides these topics, don't you want to talk to me about anything else? You...really don't want to go home?"

Maggie was silent for a few seconds, her huge head lowered slightly, and said a sentence that Ser Gorosh thought he would never hear: "Father, my actions were impulsive."

The sergeant was stunned. For a whole minute, he stood there silently like a sculpture, with a look of surprise on his face, until Asarena, not far away, coughed, the middle-aged dragon Yi Cai woke up like a dream, and subconsciously said: "So, you want to..."

Maggie shook her head gently: "Father, I left out of impulse, but I stayed in the human world for so many years, but it was not impulse. Father, I am no longer a child, I have my own identity here. Whether it is in front of His Majesty Gawain or in the presence of Grand Duchess Victoria, it is impossible for me to walk away. And... I will face a very embarrassing situation when I return to the Holy Dragon Duchy now, you should know this. , after all, I'm not like Ms. Asharena, I'm not a natural dragon-sign witch, and I don't have a more special bloodline other than being your daughter.

"The Dragon Blood Council will definitely pursue my actions that violated the taboo."

In the quiet narration, the memories of the past years also flashed scene by scene in Maggie's memories.

Many years ago, when I jumped off the Longyue Cliff, I was still a very young child. I was protected by my family and protected by the mountains. Many of the thoughts at that time seem to be a bit ridiculous now, even if I yearn for the sky, yes Regardless of the so-called pursuit of "freedom", those simple and strong ideas that once stirred the heart of a young dragonborn would inevitably appear naive and reckless after many years.

After going through these years of ups and downs, she has become more and more aware that those "ambitions" when she jumped off the Longyue Cliff are actually very small in this complex and dangerous world. In this unsafe world, some War, there is death, there is a desperate struggle between dark sects and gods, and there are stormy waves rolled up by the changes of the times. A dragonborn with a dream of the sky jumped down from a high cliff and rushed into this turbulent world. As small as a flying insect, he has no time to think about any dreams at all.

The "outside world" is not as romantic and epic as imagined. More often, it is the starvation and cold when falling at the foot of the northern mountains, the despair and embarrassment when facing the crystal cluster army, and the alien dynasty. Feeling helpless when changing.

But it is precisely because of these storms that the impulsiveness and recklessness of youth has faded, and the Dragonborn who jumped off the Longyue Cliff can't leave this "new home" as recklessly as he did when he left home.

"I am now the air force instructor of the Cecil Empire, the senior advisor of several aircraft projects of the Imperial Magical Technology Research Institute, and also the deputy of Archon Victoria and the former advisor of His Majesty Gawain. This position is with you in Barlow. The position in front of Archduke Geer is quite right. I was really in a hurry to leave home, but when I came back to my senses, I was already deeply rooted in the human world, and I had to stay here, whether it was out of responsibility or emotion, or for the sake of the dragonborn. Glory, I have to stay."

Ser Gorosh was silent for a long time, and finally everything turned into a wry smile: "I... see, you're right.

"But Maggie, even for these reasons, you can go home and see, just as I, as a courtier, have the opportunity to come here to meet you.

"The Holy Dragon Principality is establishing normal diplomacy with the Cecil Empire, and the gate to the northern mountains is about to open. We will exchange ambassadors with humans, and we will open private channels and long-term trade lines, Maggie, as long as these channels are opened up. Now, the Principality is no longer a closed place, and you will no longer be scolded by traditional taboos. Even the Dragon Blood Council will no longer hold you accountable for your 'escape' from Longyueya, because you are the only one in the Serbia. The Dragonborn who hold high positions in the Sear Empire are a precious bond."

Maggie looked at her father quietly, and then lowered her head gently for a long time: "It is exactly as you said... Then I will go back to see you at that time."
