Dispense is coming here?
It was good news that Dispense was coming here as the Tergio, which had become smaller, had to be repaired. I also have to repair the Tergio, which has gotten smaller.
The real problem was how Dispens, who noticed that Tergio’s body was broken, would come here.
I wish I could come quietly and take a look at the situation…
But no matter how much I think about it, what immediately comes to mind is the scene of the robots pouring out, each holding a weapon and climbing the castle wall.
“You really have no way to contact me?”
Tergio, who had lost most of his body and only had his palms, shook his head.
– Unfortunately, not right now. As Heir-nim knows, my role in Dispensing is different…
“Hmm…”
What can I do? Well, it wasn’t even a question that could come up with an answer just because I was thinking about it now. Right now, getting out of this mansion with the fainted Cardisho would be the top priority.
“Let’s get out at once. Have you figured out an escape route?”
Tergio, who had been drooping, answered in a slightly brighter voice.
– yes. Here’s the route you figured out with Stroom! I will take the lead. Hey!
Stroom jumped lightly on my shoulder, landed softly on the floor, and galloped down the hallway with a crackling sound. The knight riding the rat pulled away and I followed him across the hallway.
Fortunately, the personnel who stood guard over whether Abiditas had sealed the mansion once or twice were just quietly working while the mansion was sealed with metal.
Tomorrow morning, you’ll realize that Aviditas is dead, and you’ll be groaning.
There are now two key fragments collected. If you collect only one leftover, you can head to the place where the bowl of the god is.
And take the seventh holy object that will be there. That was my only goal.

“Hmmm…”
Long, straight legs. Eyes and hair that seemed to have melted gold. The princess of the Dragon Kingdom, who had come to visit me since morning, was sipping the tea I had served and thinking hard about something.
“So…”
After a long wait, Rusona Draco’s mouth opened. She scrutinized me with her golden eyes.
“I think it was only yesterday that I entrusted you with the task of Marnac, but in just one night, Rekkles and his family went missing, and the city was buzzing with the news of Abiditas’ death…” Rekkles disappeared
? It seems that he escaped well. He made a fortune by cooperating with the worshipers of evil spirits, but Dakia seemed to want him to continue living, so he let him go. It’s me anyway, it doesn’t matter if I save him or kill him.
“I have nothing but admiration for your power of execution, which is truly ridiculous.”
Rusona seemed to be convinced that both incidents were committed by us. I don’t know if it’s based on simple intuition or reasoning based on reasonable grounds.
How would you like to answer? At times like this, it was right to share opinions with colleagues, but unfortunately, everyone was still asleep and didn’t think of waking up right away, probably because they were so riotous yesterday.
Before I could say anything, Lesona looked at her teacup and furrowed her brow subtly.
“By the way… the tea tastes very strange… Do you usually brew tea like this in a strange way?”
“Is it that strange? It seems to have been brewed for approximately the same amount of time.”
Of course, someone else brewed the tea besides me, who usually doesn’t like the taste. I laughed awkwardly. Rusona narrowed her eyes and looked at me intently.
“If the maid who serves me had brewed tea like this, I would have been concerned about her health. Even if you get hit with a knife and brew tea, it must be brewed better than this.”
I was a little taken aback by the harsh words. I’ve come to worry about it with all my heart.
“I have offended the princess. Actually, my tongue is damaged, so I can’t taste it… I should have woken up someone else and asked for it.”
A golden pupil opens. Spreading bewilderment. Rusona cleared her throat and took another sip of tea while looking at me.
“Hmmmm. Now that I look at it, it seems to have a peculiar scent. Yes, I must say I had a fresh experience. I hope there is no misunderstanding, as I had no intention of making fun of your handicap.”
After that, there was a moment of awkward silence. Rusona sipped her tea and emptied the cup before opening her mouth again.
“So, are you guys responsible for everything that happened last night?”
I thought it was a good change of subject, but the princess of the dragon kingdom was full of will to hear a definite answer from me regarding this matter.
“If you are thinking about the answer because of the interests of the Princess of Dacia related to Rekkles, I would like to tell you not to worry. That’s a problem for the Northern Empire, and it’s not my area of concern. I’m just asking because I’m really curious.”
“Are you asking out of curiosity?”
Lesona, who put the teacup down on the table with a sigh, lifted her long legs slightly and crossed them. The posture of sitting cross-legged somehow suited her very well. The corner of the dragon princess’ mouth curved like a crescent moon.
“You know what? Living here as an envoy is all boring for me. The old emperor is reluctant to even exchange a word with me, and ministers and nobles passing by look at me as if they were a mysterious animal. Anyway, if I don’t reveal it, I won’t be much different from them in appearance.”
The reason she draws attention is not because she is a dragon race, but because her face and body are worthy of attracting the attention of many men.
“In the meantime, I was really bored and just before I was completely fed up, Brother Batis came to visit me. In fact, normally, I wouldn’t even listen to Batis’ brother’s suggestion… Perhaps the deadly poison of boredom had poisoned my body, so my ears were drawn to that wild plan. Of course, thanks to you, I’ve been less bored lately. Do you know what I mean? Marnak?”
“Sorry, I don’t know.”
Long fingers lightly tapped the table between us. Waist leaning forward. Before I knew it, the pupil of the golden snake was approaching me.
I’ve felt it before, but the distance between this dragon princess and her status was too close. to anyone. It must be the leeway that comes from the power she possesses.
“I would be lying if I said I had no intention of stopping the worshipers of evil spirits and saving the innocent. Anyway, one of the biggest driving forces that move me now is curiosity. I am very, very curious as to why, when I hunt and kill the worshipers of this evil god, I do not fight back or run away, but just hide deep inside the capital of the Northern Empire. And you, Marnak, seem to hold in your hands the answers to the questions I have been seeking.”
The golden snake’s eyes blinked lightly. Perhaps because of their close proximity, the scent of a very sweet woman mingled with the scent of tea I served.
“So, if you answer me obediently…”
A long tongue gently licked her red lips. Moist lips gleamed. For some reason, I saw her as a snake about to swallow its prey. A very large, golden snake that shimmers brightly.
“I will definitely repay you generously.”
I pulled my head back and distanced myself from the dragon princess.
“Does Princess Rusona treat anyone like this?”
She blinked a few times and sank into her chair with a smile.
“I thought that if I did this, I would come right over and talk about Mijoo. Don’t I look beautiful in your eyes?”
“The princess is beautiful enough… but what on earth did you see and believe that I would tell you everything?”
Rusona winked and pointed towards the cabin.
“Aren’t all your companions beautiful? Besides, Batis said that you are very revealing. Of course, I don’t believe all of them, but there are things you can see, so it’s not like I don’t believe it at all, is it? That’s why I tried the beauty world once.”
What the hell does that yellow lizard prince think about me, spreading such baseless rumors?
Rusona smiled and picked up a snack and put it into her mouth.
“Thank you for worrying about my butt, but this body’s butt is quite sturdy and heavy, and it’s pretty in shape, so you don’t have to worry.”
What did he do to fight against Rusona’s jokes that were too bold or not? If he answered this incorrectly, he could have been immediately arrested as a criminal who harassed the dragon princess.
“You’re too lazy.”
Rusona chuckled. Her shoulders shook lightly following her smile.
“I didn’t come over easily, so I tried my best. Don’t be too firm. Besides, seeing that you couldn’t easily say no, I could easily guess that you and your party were responsible for this incident. Perhaps, as a priest, you cannot open your mouth because you do not believe in me yet.”
The dragon princess lightly lifted her hips and stood up. Because of what she said earlier, I really reflexively looked at her butt. There really wasn’t even a hint of darkness.
And… it was a strong and pretty butt that I could be proud of. from an aesthetic point of view.
A long finger stabbed my defenseless chest.
“Since you must have been very tired from making that commotion yesterday, I will invite you to lunch tomorrow, not today, out of consideration for your circumstances. Come to the Rose Palace tomorrow with your companions. I will prepare my dinner and wait for you.”
“It will be a little difficult tomorrow, so I would appreciate it if you could give me a little time.”
We haven’t had time to eat and play since Havas, one of the six prophets, found out about us. It wasn’t enough even if he got ready to snatch the last key piece from the ‘stool’ and steal the god’s vessel.
Rusona’s golden eyes softened.
“Then I have no choice but to arrest you for daring to tease the dragon princess’s ass. In that case, instead of dinner, you will be greeted with cold prison floors and watery soup.”
“yes? When did I harass the princess?”
At my answer, Rusona nodded.
“Didn’t you just look at my ass with very lustful eyes?”
“Not at all!!!”
“It’s a joke. joke. The reaction is intense, so it’s fun to tease it a little.”
The dragon princess giggled again and turned her back without regret. She just turned her head and looked me in the eyes.
“Lunch tomorrow. Don’t forget to visit us with your friends. If you don’t come, I might get a little grumpy. Do you wonder what a grumpy ‘dragon’ can do?”
“I’m not curious at all.”
“Then please come. And don’t you know?”
The dragon princess closed one eye and winked at me. A very refreshing wink.
“It might be of great help to you if you visit the Rose Palace where I am staying.”
I got up and followed her. Whatever it was, it was something I had to discuss with my colleagues.
“I will see you off.”
“Just go up to the deck. After that, you won’t be able to catch up anyway.”
As she stepped out onto the deck, a pair of skin-like wings covered in golden scales protruded from behind Rusona’s back.
“Are you going to fly away?”
She smiled and patted her thigh.
“I came out wearing leather pants for that. But you can’t even smell the incense?”
“It smells good.”
“Then the reason you couldn’t make tea was purely because you didn’t practice. If you do not give up and work hard, you will be able to brew tea well someday, so be strong.”
“yes?”
When I asked again, she had already disappeared as a golden dot with the flap of her wings.
“Good! Good!”
When the dragon princess disappeared, Pearly jumped out as if she had been waiting for it.
“I needed an excuse to enter the imperial palace! If the other side invites us, we’ll be fine! Good!”
“Are you all listening?”
“huh! huh! The fact that you stared at the dragon princess’s ass…”
“Not at all!”
“No!”
Pearly tapped my shoulder and her purple eyes twinkled.
“Anyway! Anyway! Let’s go into the imperial palace as the lizard princess invited us! The last piece is in the imperial palace of the Northern Empire anyway!”
“But even if we collect all the keys, isn’t it the end if Havas moves the god bowl?”
She shook her head dori-dori.
“no! Moving God’s bowl again in such a short time might put a strain on the bowl, so they wouldn’t dare to do that? So we just need to find the key fragment!”
“That’s fortunate.”
“Oh yes!!!”
Pearly pounded her chest.
“Everything is going according to plan, so don’t worry and trust me! believe! If things go on like this, both you and I will get what we want, and we’ll part ways laughing and bye-bye!”
“When Pearly says that, it makes me nervous…”
“What?! Can’t you believe me?!”
To be honest, I only half believed it. I also warned my other colleagues to always be careful of Pearly.
I looked straight at Pearly. She met my eyes casually, as if she didn’t know anything.
“I’ll tell you in advance, don’t be swayed by momentary greed and betray me. I will keep your faith until the end unless you betray me first.”
“Hey! of course! of course! don’t worry! If I ever betray you, you can do whatever you want with my body! how is it?”
“All right. Isn’t that body a doll anyway? Besides, I have no interest in playing with dolls.”
“Not this body! My ‘real’ body!”
Pearly’s real body. I was slightly intrigued.
“By the way, where is Pearly’s real body? Is that in the capital of this northern empire?”
“That…”
“That?”
The breath came to my ears. As I leaned over, Pearly raised her tiptoe and quickly bit my ear lobe.
“…?!”
“Of course it’s a secret! Ask such sensitive questions after getting to know me a little more! Then, just in case, I might answer with a smile!”
After that, she jumped up and quickly entered the cabin.
Will she keep her promise to me?
In fact, it was good no matter what. Besides, if the bowl of God was a must-have for my mother… I
didn’t know if I would break my promise to her first.
Of course, I hope that such a tragedy will not happen.
