Chapter.42
Even if it wasn’t the Serena incident, I was suspicious of Red Dragon from the beginning.
The Serena incident confirmed again that they really are people without answers.
However, the reason that the suspicion ended in suspicion and no further action could be taken was because too much time had passed and there could be no certainty that Red Dragon was the culprit.
In the meantime, it was a dragon bead that I found by chance that created a path.
This bead created a great opportunity.
The reason it took so long to fulfill Lulin’s wish was because he had to wait for a fish to catch the bait called a dragon bead.
The opportunity has finally arrived after a long wait!
Since I couldn’t ruin that opportunity, I took a low-key stance and answered.
“I’m L. And this one is called Rurin. “I came to visit at the official invitation of the elder.”
“An elder’s invitation?”
The red dragon, who was probably the gatekeeper of the sacred place, began to look closely at us. It’s a very unpleasant expression.
I don’t understand what’s so unpleasant.
So I blocked Rurin’s eyes with both hands. That’s it. Like a parent blocking his young daughter’s eyes to avoid showing an unpleasant scene?
“It’s dark! you! “Why are you covering your eyes?”
I guess it’s a temporary solution because it would be difficult to go on a rampage because of that attitude.
Of course, thanks to that, I started going on a rampage even more.
Still, it’s better in this situation to be angry at me. Now is the time to bend down and find out their secrets.
“I can’t see it… Ugh!”
“In the first place, it’s better not to look at dirty things.”
After whispering very softly, I made eye contact with Red Dragon again. Red Dragon answered just as he finished browsing.
“Are you them? Well, that’s good. “The elder is in the sacred valley over there, so let’s go there.”
The red dragon flew up again, pointing to a large plain visible in the valley below.
Why do all red dragons look like that?
Suddenly Serena looks cute. That’s very noble.
Anyway, the red dragon was gone, so I removed the hand covering Lulin’s eyes. At the same time, Lulin narrowed his eyes and looked.
“you. I couldn’t see anything! “What are you talking about?”
“I opened my eyes for a moment and there were scenes I couldn’t see, so I blocked them out.”
“A scene you can’t see with your eyes open?”
“From now on, I won’t block your eyes, so no matter what happens, don’t leave my side and don’t get angry. Don’t say anything except to me until I say it’s done. “This is all for revenge.”
Thump.
At that moment, Lulin held my arm even stronger.
“Of course it won’t fall. However, you can block your eyes. “Your hands are warm.”
“What?”
“And I’m not confident! “It’s normal to get angry when you see something red.”
“Don’t be stupid, grit your teeth and hold on.”
“Ugh.”
Lulin nodded once again. I have already warned you three times. Since the cause of avenging her mother is at stake, even Lulin will not do anything rash.
“Then let’s go to the flat area you see in the center. “The Red Dragon elder is also there.”
“Are you there? i get it!”
I nodded my head in the affirmative and soon the teleportation was activated.
As soon as you move, red dragons flock to you. Among them, the red dragon is at the front.
To be honest, it is difficult to distinguish what a red dragon looks like, but I have definitely seen this dragon with slightly loose skin.
He is clearly the elder of the red dragons seen during the Serena incident. He is a guy who only knows about his own race to the point of extreme, and he is the one who caused the accident and disappeared without saying a word to this side.
The red dragon comes stomping in front of us.
At that moment, I felt a strong grip on my arm.
When I looked at the cause, I saw that the elder had just appeared, but he had an expression of gritted teeth.
The good news, though, is that it looks like he’s keeping his mouth shut and intends to hold on as promised.
However, the problem is that the strength to hold the arm gradually becomes stronger and it hurts.
Do you think this will bruise?
Of course, I don’t mind bruising my arm as long as I can relieve Lulin’s anger.
“Did you come? It’s been a while. Oh, I was in trouble back then. “Um, are you a human named El?”
And then the Red Dragon elder approached and began asking questions in an arrogant tone.
“That’s right.”
“Then that person must be a black dragon named Lurin.”
“yes. “That’s also true.”
When I answered on Lurin’s behalf, the Red Dragon elder nodded.
“Then it seems like the apology has been made. Baint, you should also apologize first.”
At the words of the Red Dragon elder, a familiar dragon next to him spoke in an annoyed tone.
“Hmm, well it was a nuisance back then.”
Eh?
Baint?
If it’s Veint, he’s the one who planned the Serena incident along with Niess.
That incident affected not only Serena, but also me and Lurin.
In addition, Baint was a fratricide. You left that kind of being alive?
I can’t tell you how much I’m being ignored by Black Dragon’s elder Medidana, who told me that I would deal with it, and then showed it so openly in front of us.
No, the murderer of his own people before that?
What on earth are you planning?
Of course, even though they openly ignore me, there seem to be a lot of dragons flying around the sacred site, as if they are aware of my skills that were active during the war.
This is as if they are asking you to start an argument first.
Just looking at the numbers, there are usually not that many people staying in holy places.
no.
by the way.
Not only did they almost kill Sereina in half, but the apology from the guys who worked with Niess to steal Lulin was all they could say about the inconvenience they caused?
I’m dying from pain.
My arm hurts.
“Uuuuuu.”
Because Lurin was squeezing my arm with an increasingly angry look on her face.
The way he closes his mouth tightly is cute.
No, no, I don’t plan on doing it in this situation.
I took my eyes off Lurin and looked at the elder.
“I caused trouble? “You said you would apologize politely when you visit, but is this all?”
The other side might think it was strange if I was too obedient, so I got a little angry for now. When you’re actually angry, your tone of voice is very natural.
“Baint has been sufficiently punished by the laws of our Red Dragons. Just because you’re here now doesn’t mean you haven’t been punished. So isn’t an apology sufficient for causing inconvenience? Human. Or will you fight again?”
Do you want to fight again?
The feelings I felt earlier were not wrong after all. These guys are hoping that they will start an argument with me first.
Are you thinking that if I start a fight, those 30+ dragons will attack me and take the orb as self-defense?
Young dragons in the sky.
And the elder dragons behind the elder.
If it were me in the past, it would definitely be impossible to deal with something like this. But that doesn’t mean I have any intention of starting a fight first.
I wonder what will happen if I endure it here.
“no. “I have no intention of fighting.”
“I guess so. In any case, it is a very polite apology from Red Dragon for the inconvenience caused. So, the apology has been made and now let’s get to the point.”
Red Dragon said with a rotting face. That’s a disappointed face because I didn’t put up a fight.
The dragon’s bumpy mouth twitching isn’t a good look.
“Are you talking about the main point?”
“I heard that you accidentally obtained the Red Dragon’s Orb?”
yes. As expected, the purpose of the invitation was beads.
The way he spoke as if he was threatening a fight and the way he deliberately brought Baint in front of him and showed him splitting it up were all for the sake of Gusul.
“You’re not asking me to return it because it’s the Red Dragon’s orb, right? The Dragon Orb is a treasure. However, it is treated as if the person who acquired it has acquired it, and no one has ownership of it. “I guess that’s what it says in the dragon’s rules, right?”
“That’s right. That’s why I didn’t specifically ask for it back!”
When the elder winked, the dragons came out from the large cave of the sacred site, bringing out brightly shining gold nuggets.
At that level, it is worth over hundreds of billions of dollars.
“That item cannot be used properly by a person like you anyway. So, let’s officially purchase it here with gold!”
It’s something that can’t be used properly. Well, that was true.
When I first got the Dragon Orb, I didn’t know how to absorb mana, and I didn’t make any real progress for a while.
In Lulin’s case, there was some progress, but it wasn’t a huge leap forward.
In the process of overcoming the danger of death, I was able to absorb it by chance.
“It’s a purchase. “You mean that gold?”
Since I know about the fight, I’ll buy it with gold next time?
What will happen if I refuse even this? Will his true dark intentions be revealed then?
He hasn’t revealed his ambitions openly yet. Of course, that’s not to say he didn’t reveal his dark ambitions, but it’s clear that he wants the dragon beads.
Dragon beads are not that common.
I heard that even one thing is a bloody thing.
If they are the culprits of Lulin’s mother’s incident, they will definitely have the Black Dragon Orb that was stolen at that time.
Also, there is the Red Dragon’s bead that was stolen by Lurin’s mother and their sacred relic, which is said to be kept in the sacred place.
Still, I’m coveting the dragon beads I have.
What on earth are you going to do with the dragon orbs? I don’t feel this part at all.
Dragons are a race that originally had everything.
There doesn’t seem to be any intention to power up with the power of the beads.
It’s not because individual elders are trying to take over it, but because the entire race is stepping up to do this.
Moreover, the dragon probably doesn’t know how to completely absorb all the mana contained in the dragon’s orb.
If they knew how to use it, the Red Dragon elder must have greater power than what we saw during the war.
There was no need to have so many dragons waiting to deal with me alone.
So, is there a way to use it for the benefit of the entire race?
I think if we could find out that, it would become clearer that they manipulated the incident.
In that case, of course I should refuse. Of course, there needs to be some room for rejection. To investigate this sacred place.
Investigate what you are trying to collect beads for.
And an investigation to find the Black Dragon’s orb that is clearly in this sacred place.
For this, you first need to stay in this holy place.
“Is it not enough? Wouldn’t it take a lifetime for us dragons to accumulate that much?”
“no. It’s not enough, um. Would you rather give me time to think about it?”
“Did you say it was a thought? “What more thoughts do you need?”
“It’s not just me, so I would appreciate it if you could give me time to discuss it with Rurin. It only takes a day or two. I’m not running away anywhere. “I will stay here.”
“You bastard! “Are you sure you’re making such a fuss about beads?”
Would you like to check the item?
Well, that’s good. If I live up to that expectation, they will start drooling and rushing at me, so I proudly took out the dragon’s bead from my chest and held it in my hand. The red dragons who saw this began to murmur, and the elder asked without taking his eyes off the orb.
“It’s definitely a dragon bead. “Where on earth did you get that?”
“It’s Gray City.”
“If it’s Gray City, then the central part of the empire is… Pfft!”
Phew?
The Red Dragon elder’s expression became distorted. It seemed like he knew the dragon who left this dragon bead.
The dragon of Great Mountain was completely forgotten and died and became a surface layer.
It was a dragon that met a lonely end.
Could it be related to that elder?
