#262 - Ancestral Spirits

While Hagrid and Hermione were still waiting in bewilderment, Moon had already safely returned to Starfall Island.

Being in this world for the first time, the little dragon seemed very uncomfortable.

As soon as it appeared in Moon's room, it could barely stand, its body swaying.

Moon and Bouncing Bean stayed by its side, enduring the long night, until dawn, when the little dragon's condition improved slightly.

The gentle morning sunlight streamed into the room, and the little dragon slowly stood up.

To Moon's surprise, the little dragon seemed to have grown a lot, its size already exceeding his.

Bouncing Bean, exhausted from the night, was still catching up on sleep, but the little dragon had already begun to survey its strange surroundings.

After discovering that there was no danger in the room, the little dragon simply yawned, and a stream of flames as thick as an arm shot out of its mouth.

"Not good!"

Moon exclaimed in alarm, as the flames instantly ignited the curtains and decorations on the wall.

The fire spread rapidly, and Moon quickly waved his wand, casting the [Freezing Charm].

This was a spell Moon had learned from Hagrid, specifically used to extinguish dragon breath.

This spell released cold gas from the tip of the wand, which could extinguish flames and even freeze the surface of water.

However, the spell that Moon currently mastered was not very powerful; he couldn't freeze the surface of the water yet, but it was more useful for extinguishing fires than [Water-Making Spell].

The little dragon was clearly surprised by the commotion it had caused.

It didn't expect that after only one night, it could spew such a large fire.

However, before it could figure out what was going on, it was attracted by the awakened Bouncing Bean.

Moon was also very surprised; the previous night in Hagrid's hut, the dragon couldn't breathe such a large flame.

In less than a day, the power of the dragon's breath had increased more than tenfold.

"Could it be that traveling through the world had some effect on the little dragon?"

The little dragon's progress was too great this time, and the only thing that could have caused this result was the strange experience last night.

"Chirp chirp ~" (This is your home now, you can't set fires casually.)

"Roar--" (Okay~)

The dragon's language system is exactly the opposite of Squeak's.

Each time, it only emits a single syllable, but it can only represent the meaning of one word.

When chatting with Squeak, the little dragon needs to react for a long time before uttering a syllable in response, as if suddenly realizing something.

Perhaps it is because of this reason that the little dragon does not like to chat with Squeak.

"Chirp chirp ~" (Good, I'll take you outside to see, there are many new friends here.)

"Goo goo ~" (That's right, let's go outside, the fire just now scared me to death, it's too dangerous.

The new friends outside are all two-legged beasts, they are all stupid, they can't even fly.)

The little dragon was pondering Squeak's words, but Bouncing Bean didn't give it time to react.

With a smooth leap, it landed on the little dragon's head, and Bouncing Bean looked back at Moon.

Because it had just learned to breathe fire, the little dragon could not control it very well. With Bouncing Bean watching nearby, Moon could also feel more at ease.

The three animals had just stepped out of the door when they ran into Zalan.

Because Moon decided to build an ordinary school on Starfall Island, Zalan led the children of Old Soldier Lane to the island.

Moon asked him to be responsible for the safety of all the students in the ordinary school.

Later, after learning of Zalan's identity and his experience escorting Moon to Starfall Island, the Great Witches arranged for him to live next to Moon's room.

"This, this, what is this thing?"

Zalan was startled by the sudden appearance of the little dragon, his eyes widened, and his face was full of surprise.

"A dragon, haven't you seen one before?"

"Dragon? Did they look like this when they were young? It's much prettier than that old dragon."

Zalan moved closer and carefully examined the little dragon.

After a week of development, the little dragon no longer had the wrinkled, slightly ugly appearance it once had.

Now the scales on its body were like layers of carefully forged copper plates, shimmering with a charming luster in the sunlight, very beautiful.

The dragon's eyes had also become larger, and its facial features were more three-dimensional. At first glance, it looked like a huge, exquisite toy.

However, this "toy" had a bad temper.

Zalan was about to reach out and touch the little dragon's forehead when he was instantly met with the little dragon's bloody maw.

Fortunately, Zalan was agile and immediately withdrew his hand and dodged.

"Chirp chirp ~" (Okay, this is Grandpa, don't bite.)

Bouncing Bean said, and immediately directed the little dragon to leave.

"Did your teacher give you the dragon too?"

Watching the strange combination of the three animals walk down the stairs, Zalan asked doubtfully.

"Yes, it's my teacher, and also my friend."

Thinking of Hagrid's identity, Moon walked to the door and answered frankly.

"It seems your teacher is good to you, a dragon, this is a weapon in war!"

Zalan, who had many years of war experience, was very clear that having a dragon in war would have an absolute advantage.

"As long as there is a dragon, no city can hold out, even wizards don't have a good way to deal with this powerful magical creature."

Zalan's eyes were fixed on the departing little dragon, his words full of longing and memories.

"Perhaps you are right, but I never thought of letting Norbert participate in the war."

Although Moon hadn't spent much time with the little dragon, he had already promised Hagrid to take good care of it, and naturally didn't want the little guy to be harmed here.

"Norbert? What a strange name."

Zalan asked curiously and then looked back at Moon.

His eyes unconsciously swept over the flying broom placed in the room.

"Indeed, with your strength, you don't need to rely on a dragon."

In Zalan's view, the advantage of dragons in war is nothing more than being able to occupy air supremacy and simultaneously use flame breath to indiscriminately attack ground targets.

But after Moon possessed the flying broom, both [Blazing Flames] and [Thunderous Explosion] could achieve the same effect.

It's just that the power of a single spell is not as great as the breath of an adult dragon.

But the longer Zalan spent with Moon, the clearer he became.

The young wizard in front of him was progressing very quickly, and the types of magic he mastered were constantly emerging.

Perhaps it won't be long before Moon's spell power exceeds the dragon's breath.

Just as the two were talking, bursts of exclamations had already come from the square in front of the house.

Like Sophia, the children were full of curiosity about the little dragon.

Including the tribal warriors and young wizards next to them, they all unconsciously gathered around after discovering the little dragon.

Seeing the High Priest's pet squatting on the little dragon's head, they dared to approach with confidence.

The newest chapters are first published here!

Lynn Bailey of the Bailey family also appeared in the square at this time.

Because she moved the entire family's property to Ember Island and also promised to fully help build the magic school.

So Moon gave her a chance to enter the Ember Island Magic School.

At this time, Lynn Bailey was holding the wand she had just selected.

Elm wood body, dragon heartstring core.

"Wand, dragon, High Priest, it seems I can only look up to him in the future."

Noticing Moon standing high and looking here, Lynn Bailey subconsciously tightened the wand in her hand.

However, seeing that Moon didn't look at her, she sighed in disappointment.

"Dragon! High Priest! There's a dragon in the square!"

Lang's room was also very close to Moon's. After hearing someone exclaim in the yard, he just glanced at it and quickly ran to Moon.

"Don't be so surprised, it's just a friend of mine."

"Friend? Dragon! Are you sure, High Priest?"

Although Lang had cooperated with Moon many times and knew that his High Priest was very popular with animals.

But seeing this legendary creature come to Ember Island with his own eyes, he was still inevitably surprised.

Seeing Moon nod at him with a smile, he was stunned for a long time before he could barely come up with a word to describe it.

"Okay, this is really amazing, will it spray..."

Before Lang could finish his words, a landscape tree next to the square was directly ignited by the dragon's flames.

"Oh! This fire is really big, much more powerful than the Star Tribe's [Fire Ritual]."

Lang was still fascinated by the flames spewed out by the little dragon when Moon used the [Summoning Charm] to draw a huge water column from the pool next to the square.

The landscape tree burned very quickly in winter, and [Freezing Spell] and [Water from the Spring] could no longer play a big role.

The water column was like a tiny silver dragon descending from the sky, accurately extinguishing the flames on the treetop.

Whether it was the dragon's fire or Moon's water column magic, everyone around was excited.

"This is really amazing!"

The same words came out of Lang's mouth again, but this time he was not praising the dragon.

Bursts of exclamations attracted more wizards, and soon the three Great Wizards also appeared in the square.

Watching the dragon playing with the tribal children, the Great Wizards hurriedly stepped up the steps and came to Moon.

"High Priest, is this the dragon you brought back?"

Moon nodded helplessly again. He had already explained it many times today.

"This is too amazing. I have only seen this creature in the tribe's stone carvings."

The personality of the Great Wizard Hailan was exactly the same as Lang's.

Straightforward and unsparing in his praise.

After getting Moon's affirmative answer, the Great Wizard also ran to the yard to carefully observe the little dragon.

"This is actually real. I never thought I would be able to see a dragon come to Ember Island in my lifetime."

The Great Wizard Ling Shu also sighed.

Being already a hundred years old, she was very gratified by the recent changes in the tribe.

Moon, the High Priest successor predicted on the stone carvings, rejuvenated this island full of rich historical charm.

Spells, wands, flying brooms, magic schools, plus the legendary magical creatures that can appear on the island, all brought by Moon.

These novel magics and changes made the Great Wizards unconsciously forget the vicious curse.

No, even if they could remember the curse, they no longer needed to worry.

Because these vibrant changes were like a sharp sword, cutting through the dark curtain covering the heads of the tribal wizards.

"Not bad, really not bad..."

The Great Wizard Xingmang's personality was very rigorous. After spending some time with Moon, he also discovered the strange magic on his High Priest.

Every once in a while, some novel things that they had never seen before would appear on the island.

At first, he was very worried that these magical creations and creatures would bring bad influences to Ember Island.

But after contacting them for a while, he gradually discovered that these things not only had no harm, but also rejuvenated Ember Island.

The worry gradually dissipated, but he became more and more curious about the strange magic on Moon.

Thinking of this, the Great Wizard Xingmang approached Moon and said the guess in his heart.

"High Priest, are you able to communicate with the spirits of the ancestors?"
