Chapter 29: Married for Three Years Before Meeting the Parents?

In the end, Little Light conquered her mom, sister, and aunt with her irresistible charm.
Then she conquered her father with an irresistible uppercut.
Mr. Casmode, the doting father, finally surrendered, holding Little Light as she cuddled in his arms on the bed.
Muen sat beside them, reading “Dragon Cubs’ Enlightenment Reader – New Edition” to Little Light.
The old edition portrayed Constantine as a dragon hero, but since their father had defeated this hero in an instant, the dragon publishing house had to urgently compile a new edition.
Meanwhile, Rosvitha and Isabella were discussing serious matters.
“Sister, you didn’t come just to visit Little Light, did you?”
Dragon Kings don’t casually visit each other. Even though Isabella adored her nieces, she wouldn’t visit every three months.
Sure enough, Isabella nodded, “There is indeed something I want to tell you.”
“If it’s just to tell me something, you could have sent a messenger dragon. No need to come in person,” Rosvitha said.
Isabella shook her head with a smile, “Little Ros, this isn’t a small matter.”
Rosvitha raised her elegant eyebrows, intrigued. “So what is this matter you want to tell me?”
“Grandmother is coming back.”
When she heard the word ‘grandmother’, Rosvitha clearly froze for a moment.
Leon, who was comforting his child nearby, also heard the sisters’ conversation—
Not that he was eavesdropping intentionally, but the bedroom was only so big, he couldn’t help but hear.
Rosvitha and Isabella’s grandmother…
Leon remembered that when he had just awakened not long ago, during casual conversations with Rosvitha, she had mentioned her family.
She and Isabella were also viviparous dragons, but they had never met their parents and were raised by their grandmother.
However, in the nearly two years Leon had lived with Rosvitha, he had never met this grandmother who only existed in conversation.
And after that chat, Rosvitha rarely mentioned anything about her family again.
So, this legendary grandmother… was going to appear?
Perhaps due to the trauma from being persecuted by the Empire, Leon’s first thought was whether the appearance of Rosvitha’s grandmother might also be related to the Empire.
Tsk—
He shook his head, temporarily setting aside such baseless speculation.
On Rosvitha’s side, after composing herself slightly, she asked, “Did Grandmother tell you this in a letter?”
“Yes, I received Grandmother’s letter yesterday. The content wasn’t much – she first asked how we sisters were doing, then said she would return after some time, hoping that our strength hasn’t deteriorated and that we still deserve the title of Dragon King.”
Hearing this, Rosvitha smiled helplessly, “Grandmother is still as strict as before.”
Thinking back to childhood, Rosvitha and her sister Isabella grew up under their grandmother’s strict guidance.
Whether it was studies, magic practice, or daily life, Grandmother’s requirements for them were always high.
Noia’s personality was somewhat like Grandmother’s.
Except the eldest daughter pushed herself hard, while Grandmother not only pushed herself but also pushed her two granddaughters.
However, Grandmother’s education method wasn’t blindly pressuring and raising requirements. Her strictness towards the silver-red sisters was just right.
So after reaching adulthood, Isabella and Rosvitha didn’t feel they had an unhappy childhood.
Having never met their parents, they were already satisfied to have such a conscientious and responsible grandmother.
Pulling her thoughts back from memory, Rosvitha looked at her sister, “Did Grandmother not say why she’s returning? Just to visit us?”
“She didn’t say, but I guess it’s probably not just a simple visit,” Isabella said. “The last time we saw Grandmother was when you ascended to the throne, over fifty years ago, right?”
“Yes… over fifty years. Back then I was still full of passion, wanting to lead the Silver Dragon Tribe to grow and prosper, and now—”
Isabella looked at her sister, expecting her to lament about how times had changed.
But perhaps due to spending too much time with her unpredictable brother-in-law, Rosvitha’s latter half of the sentence was:
“And now, I’m a mother of three children.”
“…”
Isabella poked her sister’s forehead teasingly, “If Grandmother knows how cheerful you’ve become now, she’ll definitely be happy.”
Rosvitha’s cheeks reddened, “What do you mean become cheerful? I’ve always been this way.”
Isabella pouted, “Oh really? Before marrying Leon, you barely smiled more than five times a year, am I wrong?”
Forced to eavesdrop nearby, Master Leon immediately straightened his back upon hearing this.
See that? This is the true value of being the Dragon Slaying Champion!
Rosvitha shot an exasperated glance at that fool’s back – give him an inch and he’ll take a mile.
She quickly pulled her sister’s arm and lowered her voice, “Don’t praise him, it’ll go to his head.”
Isabella smiled and returned to the topic of their grandmother,
“Anyway, since only major events like your coronation could bring Grandmother back, her return this time must also involve other important matters.”
Other important matters…
Rosvitha looked at Leon again.
The couple’s thought processes were similar in many ways.
Just as Leon had groundlessly speculated that Grandmother’s return might be related to the Empire;
Rosvitha also found it difficult not to connect recent events involving the Empire and Constantine with her grandmother.
Of course, making this connection didn’t mean Rosvitha believed her grandmother had secret collaborations with the Empire.
She just simply felt there was “some connection.”
Seeing her sister deep in thought, Isabella asked, “Little Ros, did you think of something?”
“Ah? Oh… I was wondering if Grandmother’s return might be related to the Constantine incident.”
Rosvitha didn’t mention the Empire, only referring to Constantine, “After all, the Silver Dragon Tribe being invaded isn’t a small matter – it’s worth Grandmother coming back to take a look.”
“Hmm… that makes sense.”
After a pause, Isabella suddenly remembered something, “But if Grandmother is really coming back because she’s worried about danger to your Silver Dragon Tribe, why didn’t she come three years ago?”
Three years ago.
Rosvitha knew what Isabella was referring to.
The Human Empire’s Dragon Slaying Army had launched an attack on the Silver Dragon Tribe.
And the former leader of the Dragon Slaying Army, humanity’s hero, the strongest dragon slayer, was now sitting in her bedroom comforting their daughter.
Rosvitha sneaked a glance at Leon, then quickly changed the subject, “Maybe Grandmother was too busy at the time.”
“That’s true. Since childhood, we never knew what Grandmother was busy with. After raising us to adulthood, she said she was going to wander the world, but what exactly she went to do, nobody knows.”
Isabella sighed, “This time when Grandmother returns, I have so many questions I want to ask her.”
Rosvitha smiled, “Me too. But… the elder probably doesn’t know about my marriage yet.”
The Red Dragon Queen’s lips curled into a smile upon hearing this, her gossip-loving heart reignited,
“Meeting… meeting the parents!!”
