In the evening, Dragon Valley.
The last little dragon was taken away by its parents, and the lively Dragon Valley became quiet. Teacher Mu Xin sat under a tree and continued to read.
A giant purple dragon flapped its wings and flew slowly from an empty mountain in the distance. It landed on the huge rock at the entrance of Dragon Valley with some doubt in its eyes.
There is not a single little dragon left in the Dragon Valley, so where did that little cub Anok go
Why haven't they returned home yet? Or did they miss each other on the way
There was a sound of wind behind him, and the purple dragon turned his neck and looked over.
A huge red dragon landed beside him, "Amos, come and pick up Arnold?"
Amos is the brother of the little purple dragon Arnock.
He nodded slightly and asked, "Jia Jia hasn't gone back yet?"
Freud, the father of Charmander Kaka, shook his head. "This kid usually goes home immediately when he has a holiday, but today he didn't come home until the evening. His mother is worried, so she asked me to come and take a look."
Dragon Valley is like a boarding school for young dragons, accepting underage dragons from three to one hundred and fifty years old.
The little dragons have special teachers in Dragon Valley to teach them magic and combat skills. They have a vacation every six months, and each vacation lasts for one month.
The year in Alexandria has fourteen months, with summer and winter being one month longer than the other two seasons.
Today is the summer holiday in Longgu.
During holidays, the young dragons are eager to go home and don't want to wait even a moment.
This time, a few young dragons seemed to have lost their way and have not returned.
Soon, Field, the mother of the little red dragon Tina, Dominic, the father of the little green dragon Sasha, and Elgar, the mother of the little golden dragon Kaka, all came to Dragon Valley.
Five or six adult dragons gathered together, breathing heavily, and even the sky began to change color.
They were discussing the cub's late return. The atmosphere was harmonious and there was no panic. They just wanted to find the cub quickly and bring it back.
Teacher Mu Xin had already noticed the monster outside, so he put away his book, turned into a giant green dragon and flew out.
The dragons stopped talking when they saw Teacher Mu Xin. Tina's mother Field asked first, "Teacher Mu Xin, Tina hasn't returned to the Dragon's Nest yet. Where did she go?"
Elga, the mother of the little golden dragon Kaka, is more worried than the other dragons.
Her little dragon is very delicate. Although he is a dragon, he is also very delicate and crybaby. This is the first time that he has returned home late since he started school 30 years ago. Elgar immediately asked, "Teacher Mu Xin, Kaka hasn't returned to the dragon's nest yet. Did something happen?"
Teacher Mu Xin flapped his wings and stopped in the air, shaking his head and said, "He slipped out this morning. My son Sen Sen was with him, and we were just about to pick him up."
Sen Sen is a little green dragon and the younger brother of Teacher Mu Xin.
When the dragon parents heard that the cubs were together, their calm attitude changed and they immediately flew up, saying anxiously, "Go, go, go, go and get them back!"
Mu Xin understood what the parents were thinking. The young dragons were unstable, and if six or seven of them went out together, they were bound to get into trouble outside.
Dealing with humans is the most troublesome thing, and it gives dragon parents a headache.
She consoled him, "Don't worry, I know where they are, nothing serious should happen."
Because of an incident one hundred years ago, the dragons no longer trust humans, and humans also feel resentment towards dragons, and they are disgusted with each other.
The dragons were skeptical about Mu Xin's words.

In the nail salon, there was a palm-sized palette in front of Lu Yao. He pinched Feisha's fingers in one hand and held a soft brush in the other, dipping it into the nail polish on the palette and applying it to the nails.
At first, there were just random blocks of paint. As the blocks of paint blended together on the nail surface, a cluster of wild daisies took shape.
Lixiu and Elvy were very surprised. Lu Yao's technique was so fast that they thought the owner was angry because of Feisha's provocation, so he was painting randomly. But the next second, the originally incomprehensible mess of colors suddenly turned into a bunch of lovely daisies.
No magic was used, it was entirely dependent on the owner's painting skills.
While waiting for the nail light to be turned on, Lu Yao paid no attention to his surroundings. He changed a pen and mixed the dark green nail polish and white plaster glue again, creating a green that was slightly darker than the background of the nail surface, and drew the thin roots of the daisy.
Anti-overflow glue was applied around Feisha's fingers in advance, but Lu Yao's hands were steady and the brush was perfectly kept within the nail surface without any overflow.
I changed to a soft brush with a thinner tip, applied some goose yellow nail polish, and drew the tender yellow center of the daisy. The design of the entire nail was completed.
Lu Yao let go of his hand and looked up at Feisha: "Do you like this style? If you don't like the feeling of oil painting, the nail surface will become smooth after sealing. If you like this casual and light oil painting style, I can use magic sealing, which will not damage the surface and can also protect the nail surface."
Lu Yao accidentally researched out the sealing magic array, although it was not her original intention and she did not expect to be able to use this array so soon.
Feisha raised her hand and did her index finger. The nail surface was covered with rough and ugly anti-overflow glue. Her finger looked like a seriously injured patient wrapped in gauze, but it still did not hide the beauty of her nails.
White clouds meet the water, a bunch of wild daisies bend in the wind, and above the flowers there is a pair of white water butterflies entwined and flying. The colors are bright and natural, full of natural charm.
The nail surface is not smooth and moist like the ultimate realistic one, but has some bumpy and random oil painting feel, but it looks relaxed and comfortable.
There was no way that Feisha could say against her will that she didn't like the food. The owner really fulfilled her request seriously, even to a higher standard than she had expected.
Lixiu came over to take a closer look and praised, "Although it's not shiny, this style is so beautiful. I like it! What is this kind of manicure called?"
Lu Yao took out a small box to clean the soft brush and said softly: "Oil painting nails are suitable for making unique freehand landscapes or nostalgic small objects. They are very cute when paired with a gentle little skirt."
Li Xiu nodded as if she had learned something and said, "Next time I want to make a pair of these oil painting nails."
Last time I didn’t know there was this style of manicure. Lixiu saw its production process once and fell in love with it. From now on, she may want to change her manicure every now and then.
Feisha was a little embarrassed, but she had to admit Lu Yao's skills. She nodded slightly with a stern face and whispered, "I like this oil painting style."
"Okay, I'll seal the layer first." Lu Yao was a little impatient.
She had tried the sealing magic many times with wearable nail plates and had also used it on her own toes, with very good results. This was the first time she used it on a customer.
Sealing magic is a small magic circle created by Lu Yao based on the characteristics of light magic. It only uses a little bit of magic power to maintain the original appearance of an object.
The small magic circle was drawn very quickly, a dazzling golden light flashed, and Fesha's nails had been cast with magic.
The dragons and knight Elvy around them showed surprised expressions, and Feisa and Lixiu also looked at Lu Yao in astonishment.
Elvy seemed very shaken, staring at Lu Yao with grey eyes: "Light Magic, what did you just do?"
The atmosphere was a little tense. Lu Yao didn't understand why, so he explained carefully: "Nothing, I just used a small magic circle to reinforce the nail surface so that it won't fall off easily and won't be worn out in daily life, so that it can always maintain its original beauty."
The only minor drawback of this formation is probably that after reinforcement, the nail polish will not fall off naturally and needs to be removed manually - of course, this only applies to ordinary people. If the dragon transforms into its original form, the nails will still be broken.
Perhaps she could develop a magic circle that could remove armor freely. Lu Yao suddenly had an idea that the sealing magic could move towards version 2.0.
Elvy took a step back, thinking it was outrageous, "Just to reinforce the armor?"
Light magic can dispel miasma and dark magic, and has a repairing power that cannot be matched by wood healing magic.
A powerful magician of light can easily revive a seriously injured or dying person, restoring them to the state they were in before the injury, like a magic of rebirth.
The Empire's High Priest Carlos is the Great Light Wizard. It is rumored that he can even rejuvenate people and keep them young forever.
In addition to their extraordinary attributes, light magicians are also extremely rare, with their numbers far lower than those of magicians and monsters of other attributes.
Most of these magicians were absorbed by the empire and became royal magicians.
The appearance of a magician with light attributes in this remote town was surprising enough, but she did not cherish her talent and actually used such precious repair magic to strengthen her nails.
What a waste of natural resources!
Lu Yao didn't know what was going on in Elvy's mind, so he nodded calmly, "Yes. Is there something wrong with this magic circle? I tested it and it actually works pretty well."
Si Jin caught another piece of information, "Did you create this formation yourself?"
How is that possible
She had just recently tested her magical attributes, and to put it bluntly, she was just an older student without any magical foundation.
That magic book is basic for the dragon race, but it is not that simple for the human race.
The human race has a short lifespan, and their talents and comprehension abilities are far inferior to those of monsters, let alone compared with dragons
Not only did she understand the book, but she also learned to create her own magic circle in just a few days
Si Jin didn't believe it.
Lu Yao nodded, "Well, I was originally planning to do something else, but ended up making this formation first."
“…” Si Jin was autistic.
Elvy frowned, totally unable to understand her thoughts.
The little dragon cubs understood to some extent that Lu Yao was quite powerful, but dragons are naturally proud and never think that humans can be better than dragons. After being surprised, they did not feel any psychological burden, but instead felt a little closer to this human.
Dragons are powerful and they like powerful creatures.
Feisa deduced important information from the conversation between several people—Lu Yao was probably a powerful light magician, but she used magic to do manicures and could also construct magic circles by herself.
This human has talent and unique ideas.
Judging from the reactions of the crowd, her talents and ideas may have reached a level that neither dragons nor ordinary people can understand.
But Fraser didn't care.
She raised her hand and asked softly, "Manicure, are you still doing it?"
Lu Yao nodded, "Go on, go on."
Because of the interruption just now, the colored nail polish solidified a little, so Lu Yao simply wiped it off, took new nail polish and plaster glue, and mixed the color.

Six or seven giant dragons were hovering over Emerald Town.
Field looked in one direction: "Someone just used light magic there. Is anyone injured?"
Mu Xin's face was slightly solemn: "Sensen and the others are in that direction."
Could it be that the young dragon got into trouble in the human town
It also alarmed the Magician of Light, causing quite a stir.
The dragon parents felt slightly anxious and immediately swooped down towards Emerald Town, only to find that the town was very peaceful and there was no conflict.
They quickly sensed the location of the baby dragons. Six or seven giant dragons transformed into human forms, landed in Emerald Town, and headed straight for Luyao Nail Salon.
On the way, they heard many townspeople secretly discussing the owner of the nail salon. Some said that she raised a group of dragons, while others said that the owner was a dragon.
Dominic looked at Mu Xin seriously, "Humans are raising dragons? What's going on?"
What happened more than a hundred years ago was the most shameful stain on their dragon clan.
In order to prevent dragons from causing such embarrassing incidents again, a new rule was added to the teaching content of Dragon Valley - humans are weak, and strong and mature dragons should never interact with them.
This new training successfully shaped a generation of young dragons into looking down on humans, but what did they hear today? Someone actually dared to raise a group of dragons
Mu Xin scratched his head: "There must be some misunderstanding. The store is just in front, let's go and take a look."
-
In the nail salon, Fraser had her nails done.
The oil painting on each finger is a landscape, with mountains and rivers, snow-capped peaks, birds flying over the water, daisies in the wind... The whole is smudged with white, green and blue, and you can see the details if you look closely.
The little dragons gathered together and watched Lu Yao use magic to seal the nails, their eyes full of curiosity.
So this is how light magic is used.
Elvy closed her eyes and turned away with sorrow, unable to bear to watch this scene.
The dragon parents were standing at the door of the nail salon and heard noises from inside. The baby dragons were all there.
Dominic pushed the door open with a cold face, and saw his young dragon really surrounding a human. His expression instantly turned ugly, "Sasha, what are you doing here?"
Little Qinglong Shasha turned around, her eyes filled with surprise, and ran out quickly, "Dad."
The other little dragons also noticed their parents coming to pick them up, and ran towards the door with a pair of shiny paws raised.
I was so excited about getting a manicure that I forgot today was a holiday.
Amos noticed that Harold and Sikin were also in this strange shop run by humans. The other dragons also noticed it, but no one said hello to each other.
Lu Yao looked up and saw five or six strong and beautiful adults, both men and women, standing at the door against the light. They were taller than the people in Emerald Town. He couldn't see the expressions on their faces, but he felt that their eyes were sharp and their aura was strong.
She smiled slightly and waved to the little dragons.
The dragons took the baby dragon and turned away without paying any attention to the owner.
After the giant dragons left, Lixiu and the other two couldn't wait to run out of the nail salon. The atmosphere in the shop was too horrible.
Elvy separated from Lizzy and Feisa on the street. Lizzy took Feisa back to her pharmacy. The herbs she bought from the city of Onoton were still piled at the door.
Feisa helped Lixiu sort the herbs and asked casually, "Is there no teleportation array in Emerald Town?"
Lixiu nodded: "People in this town rarely go out, and people from other places don't want to come, so there is no need for a teleportation array normally."
Unless someone like her who has to go out regularly every month has a need, Lixiu doesn't know how to make a teleportation array, and no one else will build one just for her.
Fisa said, "I'll make one in town tomorrow. I have extra teleportation scrolls, so I'll give you one. Next time you go to Onoton City, you can buy one yourself."
Building a teleportation array is not difficult for Fesa, who is an elf.
Li Xiu was surprised and couldn't help asking, "Why do you suddenly want to build a teleportation array in this town?"
Feisha lowered her head, her pointed elf ears turning pink. "I just thought that maybe I'll come here often in the future. I can't take a carriage for so long every time. It's a waste of time. I still have to run a store. It's more convenient to have a teleportation array."
Lixiu clapped her hands and said, "Great! Feisha, you like nail salons too, right?"
Feisha was embarrassed: "Although I might come over, it won't be very often."
Lixiu smiled and nodded: "Yeah."
Understand, understand, understand. She understands everything.
-
The red glow in the distance faded away bit by bit, and the sky was dyed with a thin layer of dark blue.
After the guests had left, Lu Yao made a cup of hot tea and sat by the window to drink it to relieve his fatigue.
Harold was slumped on the sofa, a new comic book under his elbow, looking like a loser.
Si Jin leaned back on the single sofa next to him, raised his hands to admire his shiny nails, his deep golden eyes filled with joy.
Why don't these two guys leave
Lu Yao felt helpless and waited patiently for a while.
When it was completely dark, she finally couldn't help but speak out: "Are you two not going home?"
Si Jinlong was so engrossed that he didn't hear what she said at all.
Come to think of it, Harold looks about the same age as those baby dragons, so why don’t his parents come to pick him up
Harold turned over and lay on the sofa in a more comfortable position, and said confidently: "Lu Yao, your store needs guards. You can use the basket of treasures under the table to ask me to be your guard."
Lu Yao: “…”
Isn't that the stuff you didn't take with you? It's just taking up space.
Perhaps, dragons are actually very stupid creatures
Lu Yao couldn't help but cover his face.
I can’t say anything about other dragons, but at least Harold is pretty stupid.
