Chapter 359: The Four Dragon Siblings
The red dragonling was the first to hatch, leading its siblings and becoming the eldest among the many young dragons.
Not to be outdone, the dragon in the fifth egg, a golden one, stubbornly broke its shell with its head, then struggled out of the shell.
The moment it emerged, it let out a youthful roar, seemingly dissatisfied with not being the first to hatch.
Then, its gaze fell on Balerion, who was squatting behind the three humans. The enormous Black Dread radiated intense heat, with molten gold flowing between the gaps in his scales, even emitting steam.
His large, crimson eyes were calm, coldly observing the birth of his descendants.
The second dragonling locked eyes with Balerion and immediately shrank its neck.
Its dissatisfied roar also lost its steam halfway, turning into a couple of whimpers.
Its body was covered in golden scales, reflecting dazzling light in the fire, like a rising sun.
"This little one is truly beautiful," Rhaenys sincerely admired, looking at the dragonling up close.
Then, just like the red dragonling, the golden one bit into its shell and began to eat it.
As it ate its shell, the scales on its body became even more radiant.
The first was a red female dragonling, and the second to hatch was a golden male dragonling.
Not long after the second dragon hatched, the third and fourth eggs began to tremble almost simultaneously.
"Another dragon is about to hatch," they exchanged glances. All, including Viserys, didn't have much time to observe the beautiful golden dragonling, as the next two eggs started to stir.
"Who will be the third brother or sister?" Viserys's gaze was locked on the two trembling eggs.
One was a deep blue egg, as profound as the ocean, with a vague, whirlpool-like pattern. The other was a light green egg, as transparent and shiny as a pearl, more like a gem or a piece of art than a dragon egg or a stone.
Both eggs began to struggle to hatch almost simultaneously.
However, the two struggling eggs didn't leave much suspense for everyone.
Crack—
The deep blue egg, as profound as the ocean, was the first to crack open, followed by the transparent, pearl-like green egg.
Then, the deep blue dragonling struggled to hatch first, biting its shell with some effort, panting slightly.
She had deep blue scales and a somewhat slender body, with calm and gentle eyes, appearing to be a gentle dragonling.
On the other side, the pearl-like green dragonling also hatched. Seeing her siblings hatch before her, she seemed a bit disheartened.
Then, turning her sadness into strength, she opened her mouth and bit her shell hard, seeming to resent her shell for being so hard.
After swallowing her shell, the slender light green dragonling began to eat her shell, her cheeks bulging and then swallowing.
As the light green dragonling swallowed her shell, her dragon horns, the row of sharp bones on her neck, and her wing bones gradually became transparent, reflecting dazzling, colorful light like a crystal.
"Is this a crystal dragon?"
As Viserys saw the change in the fourth dragonling after she ate her shell, his eyes narrowed slightly.
While Daenerys and Rhaenys were focused on the beautiful little crystal dragon, Viserys's gaze fell on the third sister of the dragon siblings.
He watched the change in the deep blue dragonling after she ate her shell. However, while the other siblings' scales became brighter after eating their shells, only she seemed to have a reverse breakthrough. The little light she had seemed to disappear after eating her shell, making her look like an ugly duckling.
If she curled up, she might even be mistaken for a stone.
However, the deep blue dragonling didn't seem to be discouraged. After eating her shell, she stayed quietly in place, not actively interacting with her elder sister, second brother, or fourth sister.
Four of the five dragon eggs had successfully hatched.
So, everyone's and the dragons' attention was focused on the last dragon egg.
It was a silver egg, which seemed to have no movement so far.
Was it asleep?
