Chapter.19 Red Dragon and Dragon Orb
“So, are you asking us to deal with that human under the guise of revenge?”
“right. Just kill it. After that, you can hand over the black dragon that is with you to us.”
“Does that mean we should kill our own people with our own hands, throw them into Great City, and then frame the blame on humans?”
“yes. “Don’t tell me it’s difficult to kill a weak dragon living away from your group?”
“Do you think I would murder my own people for something like you? That’s foolish. “This is so foolish!”
Baint began scratching Niess in a nonchalant tone. But Niess remains calm. I just nodded as if it was completely natural.
“You would do that. “Because we are rational.”
Then Baint started laughing out loud again.
“Hahaha! You know me too well. right! Even independent dragons that don’t belong to a faction can sacrifice as much as they want for my cause. But no matter what, you come first. “Don’t forget it!”
“Well, let’s do that. However, the moment you break your promise, you are destroyed.”
“Hehehe, what’s good?”
The two dragons nodded towards each other. If Ronel is gone, the next elder will be 100% his. The entire Red Dragon is up for grabs. Baint was a man who would do anything for that.
“But that human bastard cannot be dealt with by just one or two members of your clan. Keep that in mind. At least 10 or more are required. Take 15 animals as a safety measure. “Because he has the heart of a Lord.”
“Of course I know that much. There is a justification for punishing compatriots, so what are you worried about? All we have to do is take our entire group.”
When Vaint told him not to ask trivial questions, Niess slightly twitched the dragon’s eyebrows. However, I decided to forget about the rudeness in front of me for the sake of bigger things and started laughing.
Then Baint laughed, and the henchmen around him also started laughing.
A situation where the rationality of exchange killing was consistent. Since there is no justification right now, I can’t touch L directly.
Of course, El is not a dragon, but a human. It has nothing to do with the current ceasefire order banning fighting between dragons. Killing people under the guise of a one-on-one duel is a personal matter. It has nothing to do with the dragon clan’s promise.
But unfortunately, we couldn’t win one-on-one. That fact itself was ruthlessly scratching Niess’s pride. One-on-one confrontation is acceptable, but lynching is impossible without justification. Because they are not ordinary humans.
That’s why I put my brain together and now I can come up with that justification.
The two dragons, who had the same understanding, looked at each other and laughed for a while before parting ways.
And a few days later.
The news that Ronel had died reached Baint’s ears. Baint feigned composure, but inside he was overjoyed. The rival has disappeared. Now that he thinks that his future is filled with nothing but glory, his mind is already full of rainbows.
Of course, there is work to be done. Because Niess couldn’t set off a bomb and let his people know that he had something to do with Ronell’s death. You can’t miss the power that’s just around the corner.
Baint put on a calm face and called out his confidant, Nilt, and asked.
“You wouldn’t have been caught, right?”
“It seems so. “We even used ancient weapons, so it couldn’t fail.”
“That’s right. Hehehe. Hahahaha! Then all the red dragons will be mine now. good night! very good. Then we have to work too. “Have you looked into the red dragon that Niess mentioned?”
“yes! The dragon’s name is Serena. “I found out that he has a close relationship with a guy named Gyaland who belongs to the Ronel clan.”
“Companion?”
“It’s not that far yet, I think we’re just dating.”
“is it? Then wouldn’t it be easier if that guy called Gyaland killed him from behind? Since we are dating, we often meet in quiet places. “I think it’s a good method.”
“you’re right! After all, you are the leader!”
Nilt praised Vaint and made a fuss. Since it is certain that he will become an elder in the future, flattery is a must.
“The Ronel guys are finished now. Moreover, seeing that a guy named Gyaland is part of a faction means that he is interested in power, and since Ronell died and was pushed out of the political scene, the only thing left for him is to live in Rare until he dies. If you don’t want to do that, why don’t you just listen quietly? I don’t know how much I love him, but the rumor is that he’s a light-hearted guy, so there’s a good chance he’ll change his mind. Shall we contact you?”
“Do it that way. Dragons are widespread and widespread. If you are greedy for power, you will choose power over love. A life of reigning over other dragons at your feet and a life of being crushed in a rare corner and thirsting for insignificant love. If it were me, it would definitely be the former. Find out what he thinks. If you can’t figure it out, you can use your own hands, but if there is an easy way, you should use the easy way. Moreover, if you use him, you could be accused of all the crimes, so isn’t it like blowing your nose without using your hands? Hahaha!”
Baint, who had a similar personality to Niess, began to let out a shallow laugh. I was satisfied with the situation where everything was going as planned.
***
The restaurant on the hill is the busiest. A lazy afternoon after lunch time and before dinner time.
Inside the restaurant, Lurin was rolling around on all the tables. Long eyebrows are flowing. The sound of breathing is loud.
A languid expression that makes even me look at it and feel like I’m going to fall asleep.
“Haaaam.”
Thanks to this, I yawn without realizing it. Just as I was yawning, the restaurant door opened.
The person who came in.
No, it doesn’t look like a person. Because the flowing red hair was so intense. Plus, it looks familiar. This is a dragon I know.
“Are you guys just living in a place like this? “Isn’t it too shabby?”
A face that appears to be in the late 20s. And shining beauty. A mature atmosphere. It is completely different from the freshness that Lurin has. A feeling of glamor and light. The face and red hair match very well.
“Miliorek’s Red Dragon?”
It’s definitely her.
There was also a brief fight in the Miliorec Mountains. And the same dragon that ran away saying strange things.
“Yes, that is this body.”
He shrugs his shoulders at the subject that ran away, showing off his dragon-like self-esteem.
Thanks to this, there was silence for a moment. Because I couldn’t think of anything to say in response.
It’s not like I had a grudge so much that I even came to the restaurant. It’s not like I’m seeking revenge. Moreover, she very neatly admitted that she could not defeat me in a fight. I still remember that coolness. So the purpose of the visit is even more ambiguous. I quickly threw away the vegetables I was washing and left the kitchen to move into the hall. And broke the silence.
“So, what brings such a great person to such a shabby place?”
“Well, what’s going on?”
what.
But Red Dragon instead shrugs his shoulders and asks me back. It’s an absurd dragon.
“This is a restaurant.”
“Oh, did you? For some reason, it seemed that way. “Then shall we have some food?”
I brush my red hair. Then he looked at the bar table. It seemed very familiar to a restaurant. Unlike Lurin, this is a dragon that has experienced entertainment.
“There’s nothing I can’t give you if you want to buy something… . Before that, I wish you could explain why you came here?”
Dragons are always up to something. So yes is that right? I don’t even think about serving food while doing this.
“It’s my heart. Just as the black guy lying there can find my peer and teleport him, I can find you too. So I came to see you. no?”
“Nothing can’t be done.”
Eh, I don’t know.
Does it matter if it’s a dragon or something? If you come to a restaurant and say you want to eat, just serve the dish and that’s it.
I shook off my complicated thoughts and turned my back to the kitchen.
“yes! Now that I think about it, you guys, the customer is king! Come on, give me something. “There are all sorts of unusual things about a wizard cooking.”
Red Dragon walked arrogantly like that. And as expected, he arrogantly sat down at the bar table and crossed his legs.
As expected, there are many enjoyable experiences. They even have the knowledge that the customer is king. Behavior in restaurants is also very natural. It’s quite different from Lurin, who had a hard time getting used to it when she first built this place. Sit naturally at the bar table. And find a fork.
“but.”
“huh?”
Then, suddenly, the words start flowing.
“I have a question for you. Can you answer me?”
“Any questions?”
Red Dragon looked up at me with a serious face. He took a deep breath as if taking a moment to catch his breath, then turned his head and glanced at Lurin, who was giggling, and then opened his mouth again.
“Do you and that one love each other?”
That one she pointed to.
Of course, that refers to Lurin, who is sleeping with her mouth wavy.
I stopped the dragon from talking, suppressing the feeling that was rising in my heart for a moment, calling Lurin ‘that’.
“What kind of nonsense is that all of a sudden?”
“We were really close before, and besides, we live together, right? “Everyone looked like they liked each other.”
“I? “That guy?”
“huh.”
what. He snorts. I’m concerned about the tone that seems so obvious.
“Aside from the black one, you seemed to like it a lot too.”
I looked at Lulin for a moment, confused by the nonsense. sleeping I take a deep breath and try to say something, but the dragon continues talking. The story is so serious that I can’t stop it mid-sentence.
“You guys. Can you die for each other? Is there such a thing as true love in this world? If there is such a thing, I would like to see it. I just want to watch that love with my own two eyes. “After catching humans, they say they will spare their lives if they kill each other, so much so that they want to conduct experiments.”
“I don’t know what you were talking about earlier, but one thing is certain: I would die for Lulin. By the way, the moment you do such a bizarre experiment, you are hunting a dragon.”
“You can die? For that black thing?”
“okay.”
I don’t know if it’s love or anything.
If Lulin was in a dangerous situation, he would probably rush in without hesitation. Any time. Isn’t it obvious?
“You can’t trust those words that are just spoken. Of course, I don’t have time to watch it, but… . “Because it’s the last time.”
The lively voice suddenly talks about the last part and then the volume decreases.
Self-mocking laughter is a bonus. But that smile was somehow more captivating, so I thought that if there were any customers in the restaurant, they would all be mesmerized. Of course, to me it’s just a reptilian laugh. Except for Lurin, the other dragons are just big beasts to me.
Rurin looks like Rurin.
Because Lurin is Lurin.
“What is love? “I trusted you, but you betrayed me.”
As expected, he says self-deprecating lines. I can’t see it. I asked for food, so I silently started cooking anyway.
Cheeeeeek-!
The fried fish is bubbling away, making a delicious sound. What was served for lunch today was a home-cooked meal with fish as the main dish, refraining from the usual extravagance and highlighting the beauty of simplicity.
In the past, when Lurin was trying to overturn the table saying it was time to eat, she got attacked in the temple and had no choice but to eat it while chewing on it. She said the fish was delicious and ended up eating two meals at once.
Cheeeeee-!
Fry the fish twice. Minchak is a fish that is slightly thicker than the fish commonly caught in Korea and boasts the best taste when fried.
Of course, due to the nature of Gray City being far from the sea, it is a specialty that can only be eaten at our restaurant.
