Chapter 28 - Chapter 28 Gem Mine

Daemon, who already felt a bit in the wrong today, didn't think much of it and readily agreed.

"No problem!"

Isn't it just fighting on a Dragon? This was already his favorite thing to do!

Besides, even without this agreement between him and Princess Daenerys, if he was needed, would he not step forward?!

(Kid, I must say you've got guts!)

But for some reason, after Daemon readily blurted out his agreement, he still felt like something was off. Why did he have a feeling he had boarded a pirate ship?!

However, he couldn't figure out why at the moment. And he vainly believed that Princess Daenerys was just finding an excuse to cover his expenses over there, maybe she just said it casually!

(Do you think that's possible?!)

So Daemon stopped overthinking and focused on enjoying the delicious food and wine in front of him.

The food and wine at Dragonstone were rare in all Seven Kingdoms, and for Daemon, who only loved beautiful women and fine wine, he naturally had to enjoy them thoroughly!

But to everyone's surprise, Daenerys's other personal maid, Laila, had already prepared and brought over the written parchment contract.

Viserys and Princess Rhaenys couldn't help but look at Daenerys simultaneously, thinking to themselves,

"Daenerys was already prepared?!"

Laila, with a serious expression, handed the ink and parchment to Daemon, asking him to sign immediately.

Laila and Daemon's wife were both from the great noble House Royce of the Vale, and Laila was his wife's cousin.

Because Daemon was not good to his wife and showed her no respect, Laila did not have a good impression of Daemon.

So her already icy beauty of a face became even more serious when facing Daemon,

"Prince Daemon, this is the contract you promised. Please sign after verifying its accuracy."

However, Daemon merely glanced at it before signing his name, and even flirted with Laila along the way,

"If your cousin were as beautiful as you, I would definitely stay in Runestone City and never leave."

Laila first snorted coldly, then said expressionlessly,

"Then Your Royal Highness should ride a goat instead!"

"I think that would better suit your aesthetic!"

After speaking, she picked up the contract Daemon had signed and left without looking back.

However, Laila's words made Viserys and Princess Rhaenys burst into laughter.

"Indeed, a strong general has no weak soldiers!"

Princess Rhaenys praised further,

"I like this girl's personality! Hahaha!"

Daemon looked indifferent and continued to battle with the wine and food in front of him.

And Viserys said meaningfully,

"Daemon, you should show more respect to your wife from now on, otherwise, I'm afraid the entire House Royce will come to despise you."

Daemon downed the dragonflame wine in his hand and said with an unbridled and arrogant tone,

"So what? I have a Dragon!"

"I, Daemon Targaryen, will drink the finest wine! And be with the most beautiful women."

"As for that woman from House Royce…"

"She's not even as flavorful as the goats in the Vale!"

The three Dragons' cave, not that exaggerated, but there are many.

The news of Daenerys defeating Glutton spread throughout the Seven Kingdoms via the maesters' ravens in just a few days.

Princess Daenerys's name once again resounded throughout the Seven Kingdoms, and many great nobles with eligible male heirs wrote letters expressing their desire to send their heirs personally to deliver congratulatory gifts for Daenerys's heroic feat.

Even the sudden torrential downpour that lasted for three full days did not deter their enthusiasm and journey!

On the fourth day, the weather cleared, and Daenerys quickly rode Dreamfire to the New Volcanic Mountains to find her Miraxis and the three startled Dragons!

Because of the continuous heavy rain these past few days, the Dragons had been hiding in the volcanic caves and hadn't come out.

This morning, when Daenerys saw the weather clear, she quickly had the Dragon Guards select dozens of fat sheep from Goat Town and drive them to the orchard on the hillside.

That place had now become Daenerys's designated feeding ground for Dragons.

By the time Daenerys arrived at the volcanic cave, the Dragon Guards had already placed the marinated fat sheep on the grill.

Because Daenerys didn't know the exact location of the caves where the Dragons resided, she had Dreamfire emit a low Dragon roar after reaching the approximate location.

Hoping to attract the attention of the Dragons and elicit a response.

Because, like humans, different Dragons have different voices, they can easily distinguish each other's calls.

Fortunately, the Dragons responded quickly, and Miraxis was the first to fly out from a narrow volcanic fissure.

And she was holding an apple-sized purple gemstone, which she flatteringly flew onto Dreamfire's back and presented to Daenerys.

Looking at the large purple gemstone in front of her, Daenerys's heart suddenly constricted. Because she discovered that the core of the gemstone was a walnut-sized purple diamond of excellent color and extremely high quality.

Purple diamonds, in her previous world, were hailed as the "pandas" of diamonds, their rarity and value were evident.

Purple diamonds form due to plastic deformation during the diamond crystal's formation process, leading to a distorted lattice structure, which in turn produces the purple color.

The rarity of purple diamonds is mainly reflected in the scarcity of their pure purple color. Their yield is very limited in any world.

Moreover, most purple diamonds are not large; a pigeon-egg size is already a rare treasure.

The purest, most central part of the purple diamond in Daenerys's hand now was already walnut-sized, starting at least 120 carats.

And for some unknown reason, when Daenerys held this purple diamond in her hand, she felt a sense of physical and mental pleasure.

"Could it be because of the magic contained within this purple diamond?!"

"It seems the cave where the Dragons reside is not simple!"

Daenerys immediately had an urge to explore it. So she had her Dragon, Dreamfire, stop at the edge of the volcanic fissure.

At this moment, Grey Shadow and the other small Dragons also crawled out of the volcanic fissure.

The volcanic fissure was only four or five meters wide, allowing several people to walk through simultaneously, but for Dragons already fifteen or sixteen meters long, it was a bit cramped.

Fortunately, for Pink Young Dragon Miraxis, who was only about two meters long, it could pass through easily.

So Daenerys followed Pink Young Dragon Miraxis into the volcanic fissure.

Daenerys slowly ventured deeper into the volcanic fissure with Miraxis. The surrounding rocks emitted a faint warm aura, occasionally shimmering with a weak light, like the reflection of some mineral.

After not walking long, a sparkling open space suddenly appeared ahead. Miraxis chirped happily and flew joyfully into it.

Daenerys approached and saw that the place was filled with diamonds of various colors. Although colorless diamonds predominated, the number of colored diamonds was also extremely abundant.

Purple diamonds, like mysterious dark night stars, were scattered in the corners; pink diamonds, like the shy cheeks of a maiden, formed clusters, their soft colors dreamy and ethereal; blue diamonds, like treasures condensed from the deep ocean, sparkled with a cold and captivating light.

Daenerys was overjoyed. She squatted down and gently picked up an infant's head-sized blue diamond. Upon holding this blue diamond, a strange power also spread through her arm.

Miraxis nudged her with her nose, indicating that these diamonds were her discovered treasure.

Daenerys was filled with joy and hugged Miraxis, giving her a big kiss.

She knew these diamonds would bring her immense wealth and power.
