Under the impact of this pure and domineering force, Fiona suddenly woke up!

Her golden dragon eyes snapped open, burning with anger from being violently disturbed.

"Who is the fool who dared to disturb Lady Fiona's peaceful slumber by desecrating the Dragon God?!"

Her previously golden dragon eyes, now glowing with the violent surges of energy, turned into a fiery red, as if flames were rushing within them.

However, as her gaze focused and she saw that it was Leo standing before her, with Lilith by his side looking concerned, her raging fury instantly deflated, like a punctured balloon.

With a whoosh, she darted forward and tightly coiled her dragon body around Leo's arm, crystal-like tears rolling down her face.

"Waaa… President!"

"I-I just had a terrible nightmare! I dreamed that I was devoured by darkness and could never see you and Miss Lilith again!"

Seeing Fiona's exaggerated performance, both Leo and Lilith couldn't help but wear expressions of helplessness mixed with a hint of disdain.

Leo grabbed Fiona's tail and lifted her up to eye level, speaking coldly,

"Fiona, do you really not fear bursting your own belly?"

"Those high-concentration star core fragments and elemental essences, even an Astral Ancient Dragon bloodline shouldn't gorge on them like you do."

Upon hearing Leo's words, Fiona was stunned, her dragon face contorting into a pitiful expression.

"President, this—this can't be entirely my fault…"

Leo raised an eyebrow, his tone laced with an unexplained meaning.

"Oh? Are you blaming Dalton's treasury for being too abundant, so you couldn't control your appetite?"

Sensing the invisible pressure Leo emitted, Fiona's scales slightly bristled, and she hastily passed the blame.

"W-well, President! Most of the food I eat, um… most of it is from Miss Lilith!"

"She said she was worried I'd be hungry after falling asleep, and couldn't help herself from feeding me some delicious things!"

Leo froze, then looked at Lilith with a questioning gaze.

Caught red-handed, Lilith's face turned bright red.

She quickly lowered her head, nervously twisting her fingers, and muttered in a voice as soft as a mosquito's.

"I-I was just worried she'd be hungry…"

"And she sleeps for such long periods, any normal person would starve to death if they slept that long without eating…"

Leo: "…"

Both of you—a Sanctuary rank mage and a dragon creature—what part of you could be considered 'normal'?!

Looking at the pair before him, Leo could only sigh with resignation.

He really couldn't be strict with these two airheads.

"President, I…I feel a tightness in my chest, and my dragon crystal seems to be burning…"

Suddenly, Fiona started to whimper, clutching her chest with her claws.

Lilith immediately shot her a glare and scolded,

"Serves you right! Glutton! If I had known, I would have let those gems choke you!"

I feed you with good intentions, and then you turn around and betray me?

Where's that joy you had when you were eating?

Leo focused his gaze on Fiona's chest, his expression becoming concentrated and deep.

He sensed that the issue wasn't just energy accumulation but…

He quickly took out a vial of magic potion, emanating faint blue mist, and poured it into Fiona's mouth.

Then he placed his palm over the unusually warm core area of her chest.

This time, his power flowed into her, carrying the intent to guide and unblock.

"Ugh—ahhh… President, please be gentle! My dragon crystal is going to crack…"

Fiona writhed in pain, her dragon tail thrashing, crying out in agony.

Just then, Lilith pointed at Fiona's back with an incredulous shout.

"Dad! Look!"

"There's something growing out of Fiona's back!"

Leo concentrated and looked closely.

He saw that the area beneath Fiona's shoulder blades was shifting and opening violently.

Beneath her skin, blinding starborn light began to shine through, and two masses of terrifyingly vital tissue were visibly swelling and extending!

"This is… the early formation of dragon wings?!"

Leo's mind immediately understood.

Ancient dragon texts recorded that certain dragons with powerful ancient bloodlines, upon undergoing immense energy baptism or deep bloodline awakening, might break their conventional forms and give birth to new power organs.

For instance, a second pair of dragon wings!

This meant that Fiona's mastery over starborn power and spatial elements was about to leap to an entirely new level!

At this moment, Fiona had shut her eyes, fully enduring the transformation and the torrent of power brought by her bloodline evolution!

Boom!

Buzz…

More vast and pure starborn mana poured out of her rapidly changing dragon form like a flood!

The vast dragon might mixed with ancient starry energy formed visible silver ripples that震动ed the entire President's Mansion's spatial structure!

Suddenly, a large number of Dalton knights and hidden members of the Hat organization were stirred by this powerful and unexpected aura, gathering from all directions.

Inside the room,

Lilith stared in awe as Fiona's aura soared like a rocket, her mouth hanging open in disbelief.

"The Star Gods above!"

"This… this is what they call… an effortless upgrade? She does nothing but eat and sleep, yet she's becoming so strong! How does she do that?"

"This is so unfair! Does this mean all my mana, gathered through endless meditation and practicing magic, is being transferred to her through our contract?!"

At that moment, she looked at Fiona with envy and a little bit of jealousy.

Noticing the imbalance written all over his daughter's face, Leo cleared his throat and tried to comfort her.

"Lilith, Fiona is a dragon. Their way of growth is very different from ours."

"Don't be fooled by her sudden leap in strength. Their growth cycle is extraordinarily long."

Hearing this, Lilith couldn't help but twitch her mouth.

Indeed, her growth process involved nothing but gorging herself and sleeping! No effort required!

Thinking about it, her gaze became even more resentful~

Leo realized his attempt at comfort was missing the mark and hurriedly remedied,

"Ahem, what I mean is that Fiona's breakthrough this time is due to overcoming a crucial bloodline bottleneck. It's a result of long-term accumulation."

"But the more advanced a dragon's power system becomes, the more terrifying the energy and rules they must accumulate, and the harder it becomes to progress."

"That's why in the Starsea, while adult ancient dragons are not rare, those dragons who reach the level of becoming a star domain guardian are incredibly rare."

It's essentially a matter of efficiency in converting massive resources into power. Dragons' power output becomes increasingly inefficient as they grow.

Lilith sighed deeply in the end.

At the end of the day, it's just Fiona who got lucky and will soar to the skies.

With Dalton's resources, surely we can afford to support a dragon, right?

Even if another dozen dragons came, Dad could easily support them.

But then again, Fiona is my contract partner. The stronger she gets, the safer I'll be.

Even though she's lazy, gluttonous… and loves to pass the blame!

But the loyalty from the soul contract, I've never doubted it.

It wasn't long before the abnormal changes in Fiona's back finally stopped!
