That dragon is pretty passive. It's not aggressively trying to kill the little ladies. It's just basically reacting to their attacks. It might not offer a satisfying fight for Cid.

Wouldn’t it be great (hilarious) if actually the dragon is also fulfilling his checkboxes of edgy/powerplay stuff he wants to do like Cid?

For example in this chapter the dragon would have ticked:
✅ Look down on challengers
✅ Take their attacks without flinching
✅ Praise their strength, but extoll the futility of it

Dude always have an epic speech ready.

The bigger fish is here

It is like Cid said, the dragon is just bored and not fighting to end the fight fast.

Has any media before done a dragon vs nuke fight?

This is what happen to a mf when they have an infinite lifespan. Also happened to Cid but in reverse; he wanted to live a long lifespan so he can continue his "play" indefinitely.

Sasuga, Shadow-sama!

 

[Grailm]

thats right Cid, always make a grand entrance.

 

[Sagara-Sousuke]

He called Alpha "noble one" does that mean she's royalty or is it just the way he speaks ?

 

[KuroZer0]

"ah, he’s doing the thing again"

 

[blablablub]

Chuuni levels rising.
This is getting out of hand. Now there's two of them

Alpha was at least a noble when she wasn't banished. There might also because the dragon could sense Oliver blood that flow through her

 

[kaorihikari]

My favorite things is how Cid randomly spew chuuni line always actually fit the circumstances around the person he spew those lines to

Elves in general are considered as a "noble race", but I believe how her attack have power yet still pose some elegance. Though, I won't be surprised if Alpha is actually a royalty. Alpha is amongst the youngest of known Shadow Garden's age, along with Cid, Beta and Delta, yet she have the commanding presence to manage an organization of 600/700+ members.

5 out of 7 of the seven shadow are Elves, yet we were never told any of their past except for the fact that Alpha and Beta knew each other from before joining and Alpha is related to Beatrix. We have already heard Delta and Zeta's past, and also some of the numbers and regular members. The next unreleased LN volume is hinted to take place at Elves territory, we probably will get most of their past at once.

Not sure. We know Alpha's aunt is a Sword Saint. Alpha and Beta know each other and is close before joining Shadow Garden. Beta has been hinted to be some kinda princess. So, Alpha was at least from a very high-profile family. But I don't think that's what the Dragon was referring to otherwise he would have referred the same to Beta. I think it's more likely referring to Alpha's character as perceived by the Dragon, seeing it calls some of the girls as wise and addressing Delta when talking about desiring the thrill of battle.
