Chapter 720: Chapter 423: Holy Ora Era, Time and Gears

The brilliant sunlight drapes down from the high sky, gilding the slightly rippling surface of the Sea of Serenity with a layer of flowing gold leaf.

Crash—!

At the edge of a vast white sandy beach within the Eternal Radiance Dragon Domain, the sound of waves surging and washing against the shore rises and falls.

A robust man, with perfectly chiseled muscles, wearing a simple light armor and sporting striking black and red short hair, strolls along the beach with a group of uniquely dressed and featured men and women.

In the sky, one can occasionally see some Giant Dragons spreading their wings, swiftly gliding by.

Among them, the strong man with a stern and dignified face, exuding an aura of effortless authority, is subtly at the center of the group’s attention, like a sun encircled by stars, becoming the natural focal point.

This is none other than Galos in his human form.

To avoid the overly enthusiastic young Metal Dragons, the "star chasers," and to enjoy the unique scenery of the Eternal Radiance Dragon Domain in peace, Galos has no choice but to adopt a relatively inconspicuous human form.

Apart from a few companions like Deborah and Nasha, none of the other Metal Dragons in the Eternal Radiance Dragon Domain have seen Galos’s human appearance.

Though his current look is still heroic and outstanding, some passing Giant Dragons can’t help but glance a few extra times, yet it’s ultimately less conspicuous than his iconic Red Iron Dragon form.

At least, he doesn’t get instantly surrounded by layers of excited Metal Dragons everywhere he goes, leaving him unable to move or find peace.

Deborah walks lightly beside Galos, her honey-silver hair gently swaying in the bright sunlight, glinting with a soft halo.

She turns her head, looking at Galos’s side profile, which appears somewhat tense even in a relaxed state, and can’t help but chuckle, teasing, "Still troubled by those overly enthusiastic young admirers?"

"I bet you never imagined you’d encounter such a situation in the Metal Dragon Domain before you came."

Galos exhales a little, shaking his head helplessly.

"Rather than being watched like some rare species, I prefer the calm and free days in my own domain."

The adoration from the Metal Dragons is entirely different from that of his Followers.

The Followers are very restrained, no matter how much they admire him, they wouldn’t dare disturb him casually. However, those young Metal Dragons, especially those daring enough to chase Galos, mostly haven’t been tempered by reality, are naive and foolish, yet very enthusiastic.

Meanwhile, Alberto lifts his gaze, scanning the skies with vigilance.

He notices the increasing number of Giant Dragons circling nearby and remarks, "Galos, though your aura is much restrained in human form, some of it still leaks out."

"I think we better move to another place."

"If we linger here any longer, those sharp-nosed guys will likely notice us soon."

Worth mentioning:

Though Alberto also adopted a human form, unlike Galos, he didn’t choose a purely human appearance; he insisted on keeping a few pairs of Dragon horns on either side of his forehead, making his human form strikingly unique.

Beside him, Nasha hears her brother’s words and dismissively pouts.

She encourages Galos, "Wouldn’t it be boring to keep dodging like this, not fun at all."

Nasha’s tone carries a hint of irrepressible excitement, her golden eyes sparkling, clearly eager to stir things up.

"I say, if anyone dares to approach and disturb us, just beat them up until they’re convinced! Then spread the word, saying the Metal Dragons of the Eternal Radiance Dragon Domain are just weaklings."

"We’ll fight our way through, defeating all who oppose; wouldn’t that be imposing?"

"Not really."

Galos denies the Nasha-styled "great idea" without a second thought.

He came to the Dragon Domain primarily to obtain the contest prizes and seize the opportunity of the Eternal Tides to break through to Legendary, and also hoped to establish deeper ties with the Metal Dragon Domain, adding a potential layer of background and allies for himself and his tribe, rather than making enemies everywhere, exacerbating conflicts, and adding unnecessary troubles and displeasure.

Whoosh!

A petite figure, carrying water droplets, gracefully leaps out from the surging waves.

It is a fairy girl with butterfly wings, merely thumb-sized.

This is Vera, also transformed, or more accurately, in her favored mini fairy form.

Her nature is always lively and playful; at this moment, she lands on Galos’s broad shoulder, blinking her big eyes, and says in a crisp voice, "Galos, you are just too dazzling! Even transformed into human form, you’ll still be recognized if you stay around where there are many Dragons."

"But—"

Her tone stretches with a mischievous smile, a little smug, "I have a brilliant idea that can help you completely get rid of these troubles."

Vera is known for being unreliable; her ideas are mostly whimsical.

Nonetheless, Galos patiently follows along, asking, "Oh? What idea is that? Let’s hear it."

The fairy girl immediately flies in front of Galos, placing her hands on her hips, and bursts into a tinkling laughter, "Simple! Let me turn into you, wouldn’t that work?"
