Bang—
Bang—
Bang—
A mysterious thumping sound drifted in, and a surge of irritation welled up in her heart.
'Who is it!'
Friel roared in her mind, unwilling to wake up.
But the thumping continued, causing her to subconsciously lash out with her fiery-red dragon tail, slamming it toward the source of the noise.
Boom!
The immense force shattered the palace floor tiles into powder, kicking up a cloud of dust.
The world fell silent. Just as Friel breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to go back to sleep, the annoying thumping returned.
This time, she could no longer endure it. Her fiery-red vertical pupils snapped open, and she immediately saw an alchemical creation bumping into her.
"Ang!"
She let out a roar, her massive dragon claw about to descend. At this critical moment, a familiar voice reached her ears.
"Eternity!"
In the next second, a massive ice-blue clock face rapidly expanded, and time in this area was instantly frozen.
When she regained her senses, her massive dragon claw slammed into the ground, causing the floor tiles of the entire room to shatter layer by layer, sending stone fragments flying.
Seeing that her strike had missed, Friel glared at Jona Velli standing nearby, sparks flying from her eyes due to her intense anger.
The sound of teeth grinding in extreme suppression could be heard.
"Jona Velli, I believe I need an explanation, otherwise..."
Crack, crack. The dragon claw on the ground clenched tightly, the sound of dragon bone and stone cracking together.
Jona Velli ignored Friel's barely suppressed rage. Instead, she hopped in front of her with a smile, floating up to meet the gaze of Friel's dragon form.
"Hehehe~ Friel, look at the results of my year's work."
As she spoke, Jona Velli took out her small alchemical dragon and waved it in front of Friel, seemingly sharing her joy, though her smug expression clearly showed she was showing off.
Friel stared at the little loli waving the small dragon in her hand. The irritation and anger in her heart gradually receded, replaced by a slight sense of helplessness.
'I really can't bring myself to stay mad at her.'
"It's ugly as death, just like you."
Hearing this, Jona Velli's expression collapsed, and she said huffily,
"What are you saying? It's so cool, how could it look like me? Wait, no, I mean, I'm so good-looking, this doesn't look like me at all."
Jona Velli felt like she was phrasing it strangely.
"No, no, it's not like me—wrong! I mean, this isn't ugly at all, and I'm also very good-looking, you know?"
Watching Jona Velli almost trip over her own words, Friel found it amusing, thinking that this miniature version of Jona Velli was actually quite cute.
"Fine, I'm not interested in hearing all that. Tell me, why did you wake me up? I don't believe you're that idle."
Jona Velli paused for a moment, then said with a smile,
"Ehe! You guessed right."
Friel had an 'as expected' look on her face, waiting for Jona Velli to continue.
"I really am just that idle."
Friel's expression froze, and she immediately felt speechless.
"So boring."
Friel laid her body back down, preparing to have a nice nap.
"Hey hey hey~ Wait wait wait, Friel, you can't do this. Is your long dragon life nothing but sleeping?"
