"It's Karamiru..."
""
Water Dragon Melkkobia seemed very eager to talk, answering Moen's questions, although Moen couldn't hold back his emotions after hearing that.
"Karamiliu...that little girl from earlier? What happened to her?"
Moen asked the question aloud, but all sorts of melodramatic stories were already forming in his mind. After all, the beginning was just too outrageous, so it wouldn't be surprising how absurd the Water God Dragon Melkkobia's next words might be.
"I found her. Originally, I only intended to use her as bait to manipulate humans, but... this child changed me..."
'
Water God Dragon Melkkobia tells the story of him and Karamiru.
In short, the once ferocious water dragon was moved by the lovely little girl after picking up a child. He then reformed his ways, decided to become a good dragon, stopped killing people, and began to help humans survive.
Industry""
Moen remained silent after hearing this, unsure of what to say for a moment.
How to put it? This story is a bit like one of those short, healing tales, where you replace a dragon with some other animal...
Mythical creatures are all acceptable. I've seen many heartwarming comics and short films about ferocious animals being touched and healed by human children, and there are even movies with similar plots.
In these stories, human children seem to possess some kind of magic, captivating all living beings.
Moen doesn't deny that children are indeed cute, but this kind of plot is a bit too fantastical. However, comedies and animated films are more suitable for this kind of plot, so it's not surprising that such a plot appears in "Fairy Tail".
Moen convinced himself, because he had to believe that the water dragon Melkkobia before him really wasn't lying. He really had changed because of this reason and this event, hadn't he? Hadn't this guy ever seen a human child before?!
"fine."
Moen opened his mouth and made a comment.
Although the sins of the Water Dragon Melkkobia cannot be completely erased, at least he has repented, and it seems that he has repented quite thoroughly. It is really a bit too outrageous that a dragon that once regarded humans as worthless has now become so consumed by human affairs that he wants to end his life.
"Sorry, you must have seen this funny."
Seemingly noticing that Moen's expression was a bit tense, the Water Dragon Melkkobia smiled awkwardly. He knew that these things were hard to believe, even somewhat unbelievable.
"So, what are your plans now? You can't even control your own power? Why is this happening?"
Moen frowned and asked about the plans of the Water Dragon Melkkobia.
Well, Moen still has a bottom line when it comes to doing things. Given the current attitude of the Water Dragon Melkkobia, he really can't take direct action. But he can't just let this guy stay here unattended either, because this guy can't even control himself and has turned Elmina into what she is now.
"It's not that I can't control it, it's that my influence is too strong. As long as I'm here, the rise and fall of the tides will be affected by my magic. It wasn't like this in the beginning. As my strength increases, my influence on the rise and fall of the tides also increases."
Melkkobia, the Water Dragon, shook his head. He had tried many methods to solve this problem, and the conclusion was dire: as long as he was alive, the problem remained unsolved, because he was the problem itself.
""
Moen choked on his words. If this "Water Dragon" could really affect the rise and fall of the tides, then he would be truly awesome.
"Since it's because of you, then if you just go further away, won't the tides here return to normal? You yourself know that it's your water-attribute magic overflowing that has changed the environment here."
Moen spoke up, finding it absurd. This Water Dragon Melkkobia... did he really think he could influence the tides of the entire planet? But in reality, the changes in the tides here were simply because he was here.
"But... when I go to another place, another place will be affected."
Melkkobia, the Water Dragon, sighed deeply. He had also considered simply leaving and abandoning his home here.
But if he moves to another place, the residents of that other place will still be affected by his presence, which is simply a case of being stubborn and blocking both ends.
"I have a suggestion, why don't you just go and live in the desert?"
Moen raised a finger and offered an idea. It was quite interesting. Water-attribute magic seemed to be easily influenced by mages. For example, Juvia was practically a barometer, and the water dragon Melkkobia in front of them directly affected the tides, causing the entire city to be submerged.
Other elemental attributes don't have similar issues; I've never heard of anyone being constantly on fire. It's only the water element that has this problem a lot.
"To the desert..."
""
Water Dragon Melkkobia was stunned for a moment, completely bewildered by Moen.
"What? You won't survive in that place?"
Moen frowned and asked, having thought about how to deal with the Water Dragon Melkkobia. Since this guy had such a big influence on the water element, why not let him go to the desert to plant trees?
In fact, Juvia would also be very suitable to do this, but since Juvia has not made any mistakes, we can't just throw her into the desert. Although this is beneficial to the world, it is not an easy life for an individual; it is too lonely, like being exiled.
Melkkobia, the Water Dragon, is perfectly suited for the task. Sending him to the desert to plant trees, combat desertification, and recreate oases would be an excellent fit for his profession. He carries the burden of sins, and doing something beneficial for humanity and the world would be a way to cleanse his sins.

""
Melkkobia, the Water Dragon, remained stunned. Moen's words left him momentarily speechless. Was it reasonable for a Water Dragon to move to the desert? For hundreds of years, he had lived in the water.
However, the Water Dragon Melkkobia thought about it again and realized that Moen's idea might actually work. He wasn't a creature that couldn't live without water. Since living in a place with water would inevitably affect others, he might as well move to a place without water.
"No, why couldn't you think of such a simple question?"
Seeing the Water Dragon Melkkobia's look of sudden realization, Moen found it utterly absurd. The Water Dragon's reaction was as if he had just mentioned some brilliant plan. Anyone with a brain should have been able to figure that out, right?
"The northern continent of Giltina has no deserts, and even if it did, they wouldn't be within my sphere of influence. I have very few options in the northern continent of Giltina, which is why I've always stayed in Elmina."
Water God Dragon Melkkobia shook his head helplessly. It wasn't that he couldn't think of anything, but that he simply had nowhere to go.
The "Northern Continent Giltina" is only so big, much smaller than the "Ishgar Continent". The entire continent is divided by the "Six Divine Dragons", and there are other dragons besides the "Six Divine Dragons". By the time he realized this, the spheres of influence had been basically defined, and his sphere of influence was all by the sea.
"Then let's go to the continent of Ishgar. Ishgar is too big, and there are many deserts, which should be enough for you to find a place to stay."
Moen nodded. It made sense now that the Water Dragon Melkkobia had said that. This guy's territory was only the seaside, so naturally he couldn't move to a place far away from the sea.
"Moreover, if the problem of the dragons running rampant cannot be solved, it will be useless for me to leave. Other dragons do not care about humans as much as I do. Although Elmina was affected by me, my existence did protect them from being ruled by other dragons."
Water Dragon Melkkobia also realized that his previous behavior made him seem a bit like a fool, but in fact he had many difficulties. It was not that he could solve all the problems by simply leaving. The problems of "Northern Continent Giltina" were numerous and complex, and could not be explained simply.
"It's not complicated. The problem is you dragons. Once you've eliminated all the evil dragons, you can leave."
Moen concluded that, in the end, it was all because of the rampant dragons. Even without these dragons, the "Northern Continent of Giltina" might not necessarily be doing well, but it would certainly be better than being ruled by them.
"Alright, then I'll help you defeat those evil dragons!"
Melkkobia, the Water God Dragon, made a decisive decision. At this moment, he was just like those dragon predecessors who fought alongside humans hundreds of years ago. Back then, their opponents were evil dragons, and now their opponents were still evil dragons.
"that is....
""
Melkkobia, the Water God Dragon, glanced at Moen, and couldn't help but recall some unpleasant memories about the "Black Dragon," who was originally an ally of the "Dragon Slayer Mage" but ultimately betrayed him, turning the task of eliminating evil dragons into the elimination of all dragons.
"Don't worry, I'm not Acnologia. I'm not that extreme. In fact, besides you, I know five other dragons, and we get along quite well. I'm a proponent of coexistence."
Moen smiled and comforted the water dragon Melkkobia, whose reaction was too real; it seemed he was really scared of the "black dragon" Acnologia.
In fact, everything that the Water God Dragon Melkkobia said just now—such as "there's nowhere to go," "their territory is only the coast," and "the northern continent of Kiltina is only this big"—was simply stating a fact.
That is, he simply didn't dare to reply to "Ishgar," because the option to reply to "Ishgar" wasn't even in his menu.
What do you mean by "strength comparable to Acnologia, the Black Dragon"? Does Melkkobia, the Water God Dragon, even believe that himself?
"There are dragons on the continent of Ishgar?!"
As soon as Moen spoke, the Water God Dragon Melkkobia's expression changed drastically, as if he had heard something incredible.
"That's right, the Fire Dragon King Igniel, do you know him?"
Moen nodded and said the name of the old fire dragon king. The reason he only said Ignir was because Ignir was famous. He was the only dragon king, while the other four were not.
"Igniel?! Wasn't he dead?!"
Sure enough, the Water Dragon Melkkobia had indeed heard of Ignir's name, and he did believe that the "Fire Dragon King" had died in battle. But in fact, Ignir had faked his death and played a game of wits, directly traveling to the present four or five hundred years later.
"He is not dead. The Heavenly Dragon Grandine, the Iron Dragon Medalicana, the White Dragon Byroslogia, and the Shadow Dragon Shkiadora are also alive."
Moen then named several more dragons, and the expression of shock on the face of the Water God Dragon Melkkobia never faded.
These were all resounding names among the dragons four or five hundred years ago. They remained on the continent of Ishgar and fought fiercely against the "Black Dragon" Acnologia, and all of them bravely sacrificed themselves.
Back then, the "Black Dragon" Acnologia chased after dragons, killing them one by one. No dragon dared to face the "Black Dragon" directly; most would run away in fear and find a place to hide. Only a very few dragons dared to fight the "Black Dragon" Acnologia, but the results were not unexpected.
"By the way, what's the deal with that Fire Dragon Ignia? What's his relationship with the Fire Dragon King Ignir? Do you know anything about it?"
Moen then asked, having been curious about this for a long time. Since the Water God Dragon Melkkobia knew about the "Fire Dragon King" Ignir, perhaps he also knew about the relationship between the two.
"That bastard Igunia is Igunir's son."
As expected, the Water Dragon Melkkobia gave the answer as soon as he opened his mouth; he really did know the relationship between the two dragons!
However, when mentioning Vulcan Igunia, Water God Dragon Melkkobia spoke with a hint of resentment.
"You should have brought Igniel along, so he could see the state of his son. Igniel is a proponent of coexistence."
"The peacemakers, but Igunia hasn't been doing anything good in Kiltina on the northern continent; he keeps coming back to harass me."
Melkkobia, the Water Dragon, directly spoke ill of Igunia, the Fire Dragon. Well, it wasn't exactly bad; their positions were indeed different, and they were completely hostile.
"That guy is very warlike; he's obsessed with restoring the dragons' rule over the world, but times have changed, and that's just wishful thinking..."
'
Water Dragon Melkkobia had a very poor opinion of Fire Dragon Igunia, believing that Igunia was like an immature child who was still dreaming of "reviving the dragon race".
Crucially, the direction of the revival was also poorly chosen; Vulcan Igunia wanted to go straight back to the era when dragons were the rulers of the world.
"Tsk, that's quite a dream. To achieve something like that, he'd have to take down the Black Dragon Acnologia first. Surely his talk of world rulership can't be limited to the northern continent of Giltina, can it?"
Moen remarked that these "Five Divine Dragons" were truly hilarious, essentially playing a private server or a classic server in "Northern Continent Giltina."
"At least in the short term, the goal is definitely to unify the northern continent of Kirtina."
Melkkobia, the Water God Dragon, smiled helplessly. They all tacitly avoided discussing the topic of "Black Dragon" Acnologia.
