When the dragon fell into a deep sleep, the three people beside him immediately heaved a sigh of relief.

The butler, Mortimer, immediately pointed at the dragon in Joshua’s arms and asked, “Your Majesty, is this dragon in your arms yours?”

Joshua touched his head, not knowing how to answer him because he did not understand how the dragon had come to him in the first place.

Taking advantage of this awkward moment, Joshua realized that there was a system event board in front of him, so he immediately opened the hidden event board and found out everything that happened last night.

This included the time when the system had uploaded itself into him and he had received the random attributed dragon egg as a reward. 

‘Can such a thing even have a randomized factor?’ Joshua looked at it with a dumbfounded expression.

However, none of that was important. The most important thing was that he had now obtained a dragon, who recognized him as her master. In the future, as long as he nurtured it well, it would be one of the strongest combat forces within his command!

Moreover, Joshua’s god-tier Overlord System had a total of six main functions and within these main functions also included countless small options. In the current situation, he did not have time to sit down and figure everything out just yet.

After all, the three people in front of him were looking at him in confusion.

Cough, cough!

“I said I don’t know what’s going on either. Do you believe me?”

When the three people heard this, they all spread out, leaving Joshua alone on the spot.

After they returned to their respective posts, Joshua began to study his system control panel, wanting to see what functions it had.

Overwhelmed with what he saw, there were too many categories. However, what he did know was that they were all related to city construction, improving people’s daily life, and self-strengthening.

They covered everything that one would need, which surprised Joshua. He didn’t expect the system to be so powerful!

‘With this thing, I can do whatever I want in the future!’

The three people in the distance saw the First Prince squatting by the roadside and giving a strange smile to the baby dragon in his arms. They could not help but think of many bad things.

After all, there were too many problems with the First Prince right now. They had to constantly remind him to be on his toes and pay attention to his surroundings.

The truth was, Joshua was just squatting there studying the system. Looking at the potential of their own future with such a system, anyone would smile like that!

At this moment, a voice sounded in Joshua’s mind. 

[Congratulations, host! You’ve completed your task of understanding the system. The system will now release its first mission for you.] 

[A+ level mission: Build a village that can accommodate 100 people. The village must include a market, public works, clinics, and other basic facilities.]

[Mission reward: Obtain a comprehensive municipal inspection panel, 50 mission attribute points, and 100 platinum coins.]

Seeing this notification, Joshua felt as if he was playing a game!

If it were not for his body’s various reactions, Joshua would have thought that he was playing a VR game.

Seeing the puzzled expression on Joshua’s face, the dragon in his arms immediately jumped up from his body and landed on the ground not far away from him.

Although the little dragon had been born less than a day ago, it still walked very well. Not long after, it tripped over a rock on the side of the road.

After that, it started to get angry at the rock and immediately stomped it to pieces.

Seeing this scene, Joshua was dumbfounded.

The little dragon was not an emotionless creature. Seeing the speechless look on Joshua’s face, the little dragon immediately started to act coquettishly.

It ran over from afar and hugged Joshua’s leg. Then, it rubbed its head against him non-stop.

‘Is this an illusion? Does this little dragon have such high intelligence?’

With that, it quietly opened the system interface and clicked on the little dragon’s status bar.

Looking at the attribute pane in front of him, Joshua opened his own and found that his own attributes were not even a tenth of the little one in front of him.

“You have no name, right? I guess I’ll have to give you a good one!”

As he stood there and thought of a good name for the dragon, Joshua realized that he had no talent in giving something else a name. 

So he gave her a name from a previous game he played, ‘Alexia’!

Yes, that sounded like a good name!

“Come!” He shouted at the dragon who was chasing a butterfly by the roadside.

When she heard Joshua’s shout, she immediately stopped his chase and went to his side.

“Let me give you a name!”

When she heard this, she immediately ran over and looked very happy.

“Alexia! From today onward, that will be your name!”

Upon hearing this name, the dragon in front of him immediately grew a few times and in an instant, it grew even taller than Joshua.

“My name is Alexia and I am very grateful to my favorite Joshua for naming me!”

This change shocked Joshua as he had not expected that the dragon in front of him would grow so much in such a short period of time!

Before Joshua could react, Alexia had already leaned over and hugged Joshua.

“I love Joshua the most!” Although he did not say much, she was still full of admiration for Joshua.

Perhaps it was because she had just grown up and consumed a lot of energy, she fell asleep soon after.

In desperation, Joshua had no choice but to call his maid to help him carry her to one side.

He spread a large blanket on the ground and placed her on it, letting her sleep as comfortably as possible.

After arranging her body neatly, Joshua immediately went to prepare for the rest of the city’s construction.

After all, as long as the village he built was perfect, he would be able to receive a lot of rewards!

When he came to the old village chief’s room, Joshua asked him, “Excuse me, where can I find a blacksmith who’s good at his craft!”

The old village chief was sitting on a chair and drinking tea. When he heard what Joshua said, he stopped what he was doing.

He sat there and thought for a few minutes before he answered, “There’s one not far to the South, next to the coastline. You can find a very outstanding dwarf artisan there!

“His name is Alger. He was once a genius among dwarven artisans! But because his personality did not fit with the other dwarves, he moved out of the Dwarven tribe alone.”

The old village chief seemed to have difficulty moving his body but his memory was still very good.

After Joshua poured a cup of tea for the old village chief, he bowed to him and then turned to leave the small wooden house.
