Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire-Chapter 737 - 416: Hoping to Become In-laws with Strong Divine Power (Part 2)
"I have limited ability and can’t help you much."
"This time you must help me, and you will definitely help me."
Hearing such a sarcastic tone, Noah couldn’t help but laugh even more happily.
"You’re too confident. What if I refuse?"
Ophelia felt a sense of belittlement. When did she ever become so humble that this Golden Dragon could have such confidence.
"You won’t."
"Oh, then tell me, what do you want my help with?"
"Iliad plans to visit Heaven. He couldn’t find a suitable partner in the Material Realm, and perhaps in Heaven, he could find someone he fancies. I hope you can help keep an eye out."
Noah said with a serious expression.
Hearing Noah’s words, Ophelia, who was previously sneering and ready to reject Noah to let him taste failure, suddenly stiffened for a while,
"Iliad is coming to Heaven?"
"Yes, his war has temporarily come to an end, so I told him to go to Heaven to relax and also find a suitable partner. It’s time he had his own offspring."
"Don’t you have enough Favored under your command? Why must it be your son who charges for you?"
Noah’s words did not bring joy to Ophelia. Instead, her long-held grievances erupted thoroughly. As a Great Angel Leader who led armies on the battlefield, she knew how dangerous it was, so she didn’t want her offspring to lead troops into battle.
Unfortunately, things didn’t go as she wished. Her offspring, who was supposed to be peaceful and content, turned into a war butcher ravaging cities and nations and even participated in the confrontation against the gods alongside his father.
Is there a more dangerous battlefield in the Material Realm than such wars?
"You underestimate our child too much. No one under my command can compare to him, nor can anyone replace him, not even his siblings."
"Is that your reason for letting your offspring enter the battlefield?"
"No, it’s his own choice. I never forced him. Didn’t you communicate with him?"
"He’s too deeply influenced by you."
Ophelia sighed. She had also tried to call Iliad back to her side, but unfortunately, this grown-up child firmly refused. No matter what she said, it was useless.
"I heard that as long as one becomes a husband, becomes a father, and has attachment to a wife and children, their character becomes more stable."
Noah said with clear intent in response.
"I will help him find a suitable partner, but is that his only purpose for coming to Heaven?"
Ophelia asked somewhat unwillingly.
"Of course not. In fact, I used this as a reason to send him to Heaven. He was very reluctant, looking for all kinds of reasons to refuse, but when I suggested he visit you, he immediately agreed."
Noah didn’t hide the fact and interjected,
"He still misses you very much. He’s a very filial child." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞
"If he really is filial, why doesn’t he listen to me?"
"Because he has to be filial to me!"
Noah laughed heartily in triumph.
"So, you mean to say, in Iliad’s eyes, your status as a father is more important than mine as a mother?"
Ophelia asked with a hint of irritation.
"I never said that."
Noah remained calm and carefree, but his triumphant look as a winner couldn’t be concealed, which angered the Angel even more,
"It’s your own wild imagination."
"..."
The Blazing Angel stared at Noah for a long time before abruptly asking,
"Why would you let him come to Heaven? Aren’t you worried I might forcefully keep him in Heaven?"
"I haven’t considered that possibility. I just think he’s come of age. He once told me he wants children.
Given his current Realm, if he doesn’t find a suitable partner soon, he might never have the chance to have offspring in this lifetime. I don’t want him to have such regrets."
After speaking, Noah displayed a mischievous smile and offered a reminder,
"If you truly ignore his wishes and confine his freedom without his consent, then Iliad will forever favor me as his father and reject you as his mother, no matter how proper his conduct remains."
"Do you think I would do such a foolish thing?"
"It’s largely improbable, but who really knows."
"Hmph!"
Ophelia snorted coldly, avoiding argument with Noah, and directly asked,
"When is he coming?"
"It should still be a few days. He’s gone to make some arrangements."
"Alright, let me know when it happens. I will arrange a reception!"
Just as the Angel Companion was about to end this communication, Noah quickly called out to her,
"Wait a moment."
"What? Anything else?"
"Shouldn’t we discuss the candidate for my future daughter-in-law? With your connections in Heaven, you must have had a few candidates in mind when I made my request, right? Aren’t you going to discuss it with me?"
"What’s there to discuss between us? Didn’t you claim to respect Iliad’s own will? Why are you trying to get involved in this matter now?"
"It’s not getting involved. As parents, shouldn’t we consider things for him? What if some Evil God’s offspring deceives his senses and feelings, leading to lifelong remorse and regret?"
Noah argued reasonably.
"Oh, why don’t you think about your youngest son?"
"Terramus doesn’t require me to worry about that. The number of his companions is still growing. I’m just grateful he’s not playing with the emotions of other female Dragons."
Noah sighed.
Iliar and Terramus, the two brothers, are extremes in this regard. If they could balance each other out, as the old father, Noah would be greatly relieved.
"What kind of partner do you want for your eldest son?"
"Are there any Divine offspring with both parents as True Gods?"
Noah pondered for a moment before boldly asking.
"What do you think?"
Ophelia, initially somewhat interested, now looked at Noah with an expressionless face.
"I think there should be."
"Do you think your son is worthy?"
"Why wouldn’t he be? What’s lacking in Iliad?"
Noah reacted strongly, asking in a very defiant tone.
"～"
The Angel said nothing, simply watching Noah quietly.
"Alright, if there’s none, how about offspring with one parent as a True God?"
Noah, quite generous, lowered his requirement.
"Noah, how come I never noticed your confidence before? If Iliad can’t find a Divine offspring, does that mean you won’t allow him to marry?"
The Great Angel Leader was quite annoyed, not noticing earlier this Dragon’s conceited side.
"Not at all. As long as he finds someone he likes, I’ll definitely offer my blessings. However, I still hope he finds a partner with enough potential and background."
"With a father like you, anyone without some background would be hesitant to accept Iliad’s pursuit."
"What do you mean by that?"
"Surely you don’t think your reputation in Heaven is good?"
Looking at this unaware individual, Ophelia sighed.
"I’m a Holy Dragon. How could my reputation in Heaven be bad?"
Noah still exuded confidence. Although many Ancient Dragons reduced their stay in his territory after the war began, some still remained, and it wasn’t just Ancient Dragons. A group of Paladins steadfastly chose to follow him, showcasing the allegiances and sentiments clearly.
"Why don’t you count how many Divines you’ve offended? Some of them reside in Heaven permanently!"
"Did those guys spread bad remarks about me?"
"Which True God would stoop to such a level, you think?"
"It’s not like they are solitary deities. They have plenty of sycophants eager to curry favor."
Noah snorted,
"Stop changing the subject. My minimum requirement is to find a Divine offspring for Iliad, even if only one parent is a True God as long as they have Strong Divine Power."
