First Legendary Dragon: Starting With The Limitless System novel Chapter 10

Chapter 10: New Name

Before the old man could reply, they heard footsteps coming, the young man whom they had given a robe to came back after cleaning himself in the river.

He looked like a living celestial who had descended from the heavens. His black hair looked like it hid the cosmic river, while his dark black eyes seemed like the bottomless abyss. His unblemished skin only enhanced his overall appeal.

The old man and old lady nodded in approval, "You are one outstanding young man. Even your appearance is divine."

Primus didn't know how to react to that praise, so he just calmly smiled. The old man thought even more highly of him now; not only was he calm in front of praises, he also didn't turn arrogant from them.

"Come, sit, sit, eat some of this fine meat." The old man took out a picnic blanket and placed it beside the softly burning fire.

Primus's lips twitched seeing the shamelessness of the old man, but he didn't mention it and sat down. He had no other option; he wasn't strong enough to oppose the old couple.

"So, tell me, what's your name?" The old man kindly smiled and asked.

Primus hesitated this time. He didn't know if he should tell the old man his real name or not, but the old woman beside him sat down beside him and calmly placed her hand on top of his.

"You don't need to be afraid of us. We won't hurt you." She softly said in a calm voice.

He took a deep breath and finally said with some difficulty, "P-Primus."

The old man looked weirdly at him, "Primus? Really? Who even takes such a name?"

But the old woman instead glared at the old man, "Old bastard, watch whose fun you are making. I will pluck your beard out."

The old man's laugh stopped abruptly. he coughed and looked at Primus again, "Hmm...not to be rude, but this name is not appropriate to use for you now. Once you have made a name for yourself, then even if you use dogshit as a name, people will glorify it and praise it to the high heavens."

The old lady also exhaled a sigh, "Even if I want to disagree with him, he is right, child. You should think of a different name to use in your day-to-day life instead."

Primus made a difficult face; even he knew how ridiculous his name was. He had thought about using an alias, but he couldn't come up with a good name.

He raised his head, looking at the old lady, "Can...can you give me a name?" He still wasn't used to talking in the native language of this world.

The old couple also noticed his awkward speech; they thought he might not have much human contact in this wilderness, that is why he was like this.

"Hmm, how about...Orion?" The old lady softly said.
