On the crystal castle, Lady Gold Dragon Atris stood on the empty platform, overlooking the martial arena below, which had shrunk to the size of a palm.

Though far away, with the vision of a dragon, she could clearly see, "With this many giants, it would be no problem to flatten a kingdom on the mainland."

"Lady Atris." Sofia, the chief maid, approached the human form of Lady Gold Dragon from behind. "All the cloud giants in the castle have left. Following your orders, any cloud giants who came to resign were not seen. Their contracts were directly terminated, and they were asked to leave."

"Sofia, do you think I look pathetic now?" The stunning girl slightly turned her head, revealing her perfect profile to the maid. "These cloud giants would rather break their contracts than follow me, the legendary gold dragon. Instead, they bow to my son."

Seeing her mistress's profile, Sofia's heart couldn't help but skip a beat, her face slightly blushing. She lowered her head at Lady Gold Dragon's words, "Lady Atris, the cloud giants are willing to follow Young Master Muria because of his Titan bloodline, not because of his strength. This only demonstrates the power of the Titan bloodline and its unparalleled influence over giants, without diminishing your dignity."

"I know, Sofia, the significance of Titans to giants. But looking at my empty castle now, I still feel a bit annoyed," Lady Gold Dragon Atris said unhappily.

"Lady Atris, all the dragonkin maids are guarding the castle for you," Sofia, the chief maid, said calmly.

"And me, Lady Atris, I am willing to follow you until the end of my life, your servant Bart," came a booming voice from the sky, followed by a loud bang as a huge golden dragon crashed onto the platform of the castle. It was Bart, the commanding golden flying dragon.

"Whoosh!" Just as the flying dragon leader descended at high speed, a gentle wind rose, suppressed by an invisible force, turning into a very comfortable breeze.

"Bart, Sofia, I know your loyalty," Lady Gold Dragon said, still looking down at her son Muria, who was sitting on a stone throne, swishing his tail. She didn't turn back, but a hint of a smile appeared on her face. "Bart, next time you land, don't be so hasty."

"Sorry, Lady Atris, I disturbed you due to my negligence," the golden dragon said, looking ashamed as it prostrated on the ground.

"Be more careful next time," Lady Gold Dragon Atris said lightly.

"Lady Atris." Sofia, the chief maid, followed Lady Gold Dragon's gaze. She could see the vast and majestic martial arena, but she couldn't make out the giants inside. "Is it too early for Young Master Muria to leave your protection and live alone?"

"Early?" Lady Gold Dragon glanced at Sofia with a smile. "Sofia, dragon offspring cannot leave their parents' protection too early because the world is too dangerous, and the dragonlings do not have enough strength to protect themselves. But here, no matter where little Muria wants to go in the Thunderstorm Archipelago, he will be safe. All the wise creatures living here will protect him because he is the son of a Titan, and this sea is Titan's territory. Even the gods dare not cause trouble here. For little Muria, this is the safest place in the world."

"I understand, Lady Atris, you have considered it thoroughly," Sofia said, suddenly enlightened.

"Haha, Sofia, you didn't expect this, did you? You must be reluctant to part with my little Muria, after watching him grow up," Lady Gold Dragon said, smiling at the maid.

"You are joking, my lady," Sofia said awkwardly, lowering her head.

You could be reading stolen content. Head to the original site for the genuine story.

"Alright, let's move on. Everyone is here!" Below, the martial arena changed, drawing Lady Gold Dragon's attention back down. Though she didn't say it, she was still concerned about her son.

In the martial arena, Muria received reports from the eighteen cloud giant leaders. All the cloud giants on the island, regardless of age or gender, had gathered near the martial arena, waiting for his orders.

"All the cloud giants are here?" Muria looked outside the martial arena at the loose formation of cloud giants, and it was evident from their numbers that all the cloud giants on the island had probably gathered here.

"So, my mother's castle no longer has giant guards?" Muria stared at the cloud giant leaders in front of him.

"Your Highness Muria, we have already tendered our resignation to Lady Atris, but unfortunately, we didn't see her. However, Miss Sofia represented Lady Atris and agreed to our request," one of the cloud giant leaders replied.

"Is that so?" Muria stroked his chin, murmuring softly, "If the cloud giants are all following me, then won't my gold dragon mother be pitiful? Ha ha, making you chase me away!"

Just as Muria muttered to himself, thinking only he could hear, a faint "Hehe!" sounded in his ear... Muria's hair stood on end; he had a bad feeling.

Lady Gold Dragon, who had been keeping an eye on the situation below, suddenly let out a cold laugh, leaving Sofia and Bart, the leader, puzzled.

"He underestimated himself, didn't he? Well, Muria, today I will show you the true power of a legend!" Lady Gold Dragon raised her eyebrows. Golden light burst out from her seemingly frail and slender figure, forming a towering column that shattered the clouds above the castle, creating a huge void, revealing the deep blue sky.

On the throne above the martial arena, Muria, who had already sensed something, looked up at the sky above the crystal castle. The golden light column only lasted a few seconds before shattering, and then...

Roar!

A majestic golden dragon appeared above the crystal castle. Its sleek body, covered in golden dragon scales, exuded an extreme beauty. Its broad golden wings seemed to envelop the entire castle.

Visible waves of faint golden dragon aura emanated from the dragon, covering the island, several thousand square kilometers in size. The fierce wolves, fierce eagles, griffins, and other creatures raised by the giants were all forced to the ground, trembling, some even unable to control their bowels.

"Is this my mother's true form?" Muria looked at the golden dragon perched on the castle, feeling a sense of awe. At this moment, he realized that what he had seen before were either shrunken forms or humanoid forms of his mother, the gold dragon. He had never seen her true dragon form in the castle.

Because Lady Gold Dragon was too large, even the largest castle hall could barely accommodate her true form. So what Muria usually saw in the castle were humanoid forms of Lady Gold Dragon.

At this moment, Muria truly saw his mother's true form for the first time: a nearly two hundred meters long golden dragon, subtracting the nearly one hundred meters of her slender dragon tail, Lady Gold Dragon's true size was still over a hundred meters. When Lady Gold Dragon spread her broad golden wings, she looked even larger.

"The books say that ancestral gold dragons are no less than Titans." Muria now understood what that meant. Ancestral dragons could rival Titans in both size and magical abilities.

On the crystal castle, Lady Gold Dragon, revealing her true form, glanced at Muria and then released a violent surge of power from her body. A huge spatial crack appeared at her feet, parallel to the ground.

Through this spatial crack, Muria saw a primitive and wild jungle. However, the trees inside were not as tall as those on the Titan islands, but they were equally vibrant.

Roar! Roar!

Two loud dragon roars came from the spatial crack. Two very familiar red dragons flew out of it, circled in the air, and then obediently prostrated at Lady Gold Dragon's feet. They were the parents of the six young dragons Muria raised, the unfortunate red dragon couple.

Roar! Hiss! Sigh!

Following the red dragon couple, a continuous stream of golden bipedal dragons flew out of the spatial crack, covering the sky...

Below were swarms of dragon beasts, such as the robust and powerful Tyrannosaurus rex, the Triceratops with its strong hind legs and short, agile arms, the Triceratops with its horned bone armor, the relatively small and agile Velociraptor, and the ferocious Therizinosaurus...

But no matter what kind of dragon beast they were, they all shared a common feature—their scales and bone armor were all golden, a symbol of the influence of Lady Gold Dragon's power.

The golden "tide" started from the spatial crack at Lady Gold Dragon's feet and gradually spread across the entire island, occupying the space where there was already no one...

"The Golden Dragon Legion, this is my mother's true allied force?" Muria looked at the spatial crack from which the dragon beasts surged, feeling envious. He also wanted such a legion.

"A demi-plane that only legendary mages can create. As long as the created space is large enough, it is equivalent to carrying a small world with you." Muria looked at the crack with longing; this was some basic mage knowledge he knew.

"Little Muria, hurry up and take your followers away. It's time to make room for my allies," a gentle female voice sounded in Muria's ear. It was Lady Gold Dragon Atris's voice, and Muria was now completely sure that the "hehe" he had just heard was definitely not an illusion.

Feeling a complex emotion, Muria gave orders to the giants who had almost all gathered, "Depart, and find me an island ten times larger than this one to settle down."

Then, Muria spread his dragon wings, hugged his trusted maid Mia, and soared into the sky. His six young dragons looked back at the crystal castle with reluctance, then followed Muria's figure. As for their parents, they also saw them, but no dragon wanted to acknowledge them. It was too embarrassing for a dragon.

Below, one cloud giant after another cast levitation spells, flying into the air, following Muria. Hill giants, tidal giants, storm giants strode or flew toward the direction Muria was flying.

On the sea, the storm giants walked on the water, the tidal giants dived directly into the sea, and the hill giants, feeling uncomfortable, sat on the giant sea creatures provided by the sea tribes.

For a while, the sky was filled with flying cloud giants surrounded by clouds, the sea was covered with storm giants and hill giants riding sea creatures, and under the sea, tidal giants swam. In between the giants were countless marine species—nagas, sirens, merfolk... It looked majestic and magnificent.
