[Black-Bellied Dragon Knight Gong Lex] & [Adorkable, Money-Grubbing Red Dragon Shou Reid]
One-on-one | Happy ending | Both virgins | Secondary pairing | Slow-paced daily life | A cozy, healing, humorous little story
On his eighteenth birthday, Lex Schwarz inherits his father’s Redscale Guild, a hollow shell with three inches of dust and a promissory note for a million gold coins stuck to its face.
The creditor is a terrifying red dragon with a terrible temper and a mean punch.
Lex flashes an evil human smile:
“Congratulations on your investment! You’re now a shareholder and consultant!”
The red dragon doesn’t understand how dividends work, but nods in satisfaction. “Room and board are included.”
And so the most formidable creditor in history starts working for a human to earn money to pay off his own debt.
So, what else does it take to get this guild off the ground?
The guild can’t just be the guildmaster and consultant, can it?
Lex looks left, then right.
“The lady running the tavern next door seems nice. I hereby appoint you our noble head of logistics.”
“Oh, the scheming lord in the main city seems nice, too. I’ll borrow your daughter to be our accountant.”
“What? The young lady still has to go to school?”
“...Then I’ll have the lord himself teach the guildmaster how to dodge taxes.”
Hmm, the young duke in the royal capital is great. I’ll take him!
The councilor from the dwarven city-state is great, too. I’ll take him!
The elven king, who has come to visit his godson with gifts in hand, sneers. “You want to take me, too?”
Lex rubs his hands together. “I think you’d be great, godfather. Interested in joining our guild as an archer?”
Lex rides on the dragon’s shoulders to take commissions, expose conspiracies, and recruit talent, slowly building up the little guild.
The red dragon is easy to coax and look after: give him a rock, and he’ll crunch it; give him a bed, and he’ll sleep.
Lex thinks he’s gotten an incredible bargain, so he decides to make it up to the dragon in other ways. One thing leads to another, and he ends up making it up to him in bed.
The dragon’s plump tail winds around him. “I’ve got my eye on something new.”
“...Send me the bill.”
The next day, the Redscale Guild’s noble accountant, genius witch Eleanor, sharpens her knives. “Oh no! A huge sum of money has suddenly gone missing from our accounts, and there’s no receipt! Damn it, don’t let me find out who messed with my books!”
And that’s why they say falling in love is bad for your wallet.
Updates follow the rankings when there are rankings; otherwise, every other day. Extra chapters for gifts or nutrient solutions.

“Who Messed with My Game Save???”
Xu Jie, an ordinary human and a Gaokao survivor, has finally escaped the inhuman college entrance exams. Overjoyed, he turns on his computer, ready for a thoroughly satisfying gaming session.
But wait! Can someone tell him how the survival management game save he put on Steam a year ago has evolved from the primitive era to the interstellar age?
Someone’s been playing my game! What’s the platform doing?
Xu Jie: Furiously fighting in the comments section, incoming!
He opens the game and takes a look. Damn it! The life-form tech tree is a mess, the genetic code is a pile of garbage running on bugs, the social policies are ridiculous, and the birth rate is atrociously low!
So what if you’ve opened up a huge map? What good is it? Can’t you see that your organization level is about to hit zero and the little creatures you created are on the verge of extinction?
Xu Jie quickly rolls up his sleeves, opens a strategy guide website, and tries to save his game.
What? A revolt is underway, and his little creatures are rioting?
Come on, come on! Take down those oppressors! The great Insect God will give you cheat codes.
What? The villagers repaired some old facilities and sent him Eureka points?
Great, great! The Insect God will see what you need... Okay, I’ll arrange your wedding to your wife.
What? His Eureka individual is about to drop dead on the spot?
No, no! You, my unrequited love, go save that bug by the command of the Insect God!
Ismail Entopa, leader of the Voidwings of the Amber Palace, saint of the Holy Crown Hall, architect of the theory of temporal retrospection and chief director of the project, and a Eureka male insect, stands before the first officially commissioned time-retrospection machine and addresses the public:
“Onward to the Divine Realm!
This is one giant leap for me, but only a small step for the insect race.
“One day, our research will overcome the Creator’s constraints. We will resolve the chronic problems in genetic inheritance, and may tomorrow bring us a new Eureka moment.
“Insectkind will thrive forever, never to fade!”
Full of ambition, he sets off for the Divine Realm, his heart racing and his hands trembling!
The Divine Realm is beyond anything an ordinary insect could imagine. There, he witnesses the great Insect God wielding a cold weapon as merciless divine punishment rains from the sky: “Cockroaches! Damn it, kill the cockroaches!”
Their divine power is primitive and savage, their battle cries are awe-inspiring, and their stance is ferociously heroic. Good heavens, they’re the most female of female insects, the mother of all insects!
The little spider Ismail trembles in a corner. “Mother, my great Mother, I am your loyal follower, your innocent child. I wish only to prostrate myself at your feet and pray that your holy hymn may reach me...”

Theme: The highest form of contract is trust and sincerity
Is this little Ryder missing a heart?
Ryder is not a dragon that can be dismissed casually~
Prince Mi is really cunning and cunning.
In fact, I can't really relate to the relationship between Xiao Hei and Samuel. Maybe it's because beauty, weakness, and affection are not my cup of tea, haha, but I can relate to Mommy, and Mommy is so handsome! The scimitar and the velvet skirt are so beautiful and sassy. I feel like Xiao Sai's parents are a bit good.
Hahahaha, I can't stop laughing, Dinah Lai's dad is so funny
The black dragon also walked back or flew back. Could it be that Ryder was the only one who found he didn't know the way when he arrived at his hometown? [Covering face and crying]
Xiao Lai spent her honeymoon at public expense, hahaha
Lift the author and tremble. I'm really looking forward to what happens next, hahaha. In fact, the two of them slept together, hahaha! I don't know if the little gecko will return. Hahaha, the big plump tail is wagging.
What a hearty lantern show
For the sake of the plump big tail, let Xiao Lai give Dai Lai a Mo Mo tweet.
