“therefore···.”
“This is clearly an insult to the poisonous dragon Drahavie!”
I don’t know who was speaking, but the voice was loud. For a moment, the three dumbfounded people looked at each other. Ronan sighed.
“What the fuck again?”
I had a strong feeling that something troublesome would happen. She finally heard no answer and her Adeshan bit her lower lip. Didican’s face hardened.
“···Drahavie? Did you just say Drahavier?”
“I think that’s right. “Why, do you know someone?”
“This is a disaster. “It may not be ready for delivery yet.”
Didican, who was muttering to himself, ran down the passage he had come from. The urgency of my steps seemed like a more emergency situation than I thought. Ronan said.
“I said it was a venomous dragon.”
“huh. “That’s what I heard.”
“Is it a poisonous dragon? “I get tired when I get tangled up with dragons… eh.”
He grumbled and entered the passage. Adeshan quickly followed him. I still don’t know what’s going on, but just watching the situation unfold doesn’t suit my taste.
The sound got louder as we went down the stairs. The incident was taking place in the central hall where I first saw it when I came here. The hall, which had given off a neat and tidy appearance, had turned into a complete mess.
“How funny are we! ok?!”
“Well, how could that be! “Please calm down…!”
At the center of the mess were two large men and a young man. Ronan shrugged his eyebrows. The young man who smelled like a baby was the one who had put Ronan’s griffon in the stable a little while ago.
He was being grabbed by the collar by a woman who was probably 2 meters tall. It was sad to see his legs hanging around like a hanged corpse. The woman who held her face close to hers scolded her again.
“Say it again. We definitely paid the price and waited for a month. “But why aren’t there any weapons ready?”
“Well, I told you. There was a setback because the New Beast Union kidnapped the craftsmen. Moreover, I told you at the time of requesting that it would take at least three months…!”
“gibberish! I was told it was definitely a month. yes?”
The woman who snorted looked at her colleague next to her. Her goatee-bearded hunk nodded.
“one month. Are you sure.”
“Look, so you’re saying my colleague is lying?”
“Well, that can’t be possible!”
The young man screamed. The blacksmith people surrounded them in a circle and were stomping their feet.
The only person who was calm in this place was the man in black sitting in the corner and looking inside the box. I thought that bastard went, but he hasn’t gone yet? Ronan found Didican in the front row and approached him.
“Hey, Didican.”
“···Are you here? “You have no shame.”
“What happened? “I didn’t think it was a low-class place for those kind of city affairs thugs to come and misbehave.”
Something that could only happen at a local blacksmith shop was happening. The appearance of not being able to resist in any way and just watching the action was also similar. Didi Khan lowered her head as if she was embarrassed.
“That is correct. But the opponent is not good. “I never thought the poisonous dragon’s men would come now.”
“What is Drahavier doing?”
“It’s a dragon that lives in the dragon city of Adren. He is also the leader of a criminal organization called Green Fang, and a month ago he arbitrarily commissioned me to make aurora weapons for 500 people. “It’s an absurd demand.”
He said that is why the craftsmen are not sure what to do now. With just the people here, De la Javiera couldn’t handle his backing.
“her.”
Ronan, who was listening to the story, laughed. This was the first time I had heard of a dragon, not another race, forming a criminal organization.
“Dragon created a criminal organization? “Why bother with that famous race?”
“I don’t know. Originally, the Pashanti Islands were their main area of activity, but their influence is slowly spreading to the continent. The Dragon King of Adren deserves sanctions once…”
Didican’s explanation continued. Most members of the Green Fang were mortal races such as humans and beastmen. They said they would receive money or an engraving as a reward for pledging loyalty to Drahavier.
“engrave?”
“okay. The dragon shares his power. It’s a similar behavior to a vampire increasing his or her household. “That tattoo is proof of that.”
Didican stretched out his finger and pointed at the big guys. The image of a long-branched dragon was engraved on their necks and forearms. It is a perk given only to Green Fang’s executives, and from the dragon’s perspective, it is said to be a very cost-effective reward because even a very small amount of power is enough to have a sufficient effect.
Suddenly, the words the black man said passed through my mind. He must have been imprinted by the first fire. If it was the first fire, it would be a reference to Navarre.
‘Should I engrave this too?’
Ronan tilted his head. The Navarre regime at the time had a very difficult time sharing extremely small amounts of power.
‘First of all, seeing as there are no tattoos, I don’t think it’s an engraving. ‘What is that black bastard in the first place?’
Ronan was lost in thought. Suddenly, a large silver candlestick flew towards Adeshan.
“What…!”
She was startled and tried to duck into the car. Ronan’s appearance became blurred for a moment. Kwasik! The candlestick that was flying in a straight line stopped in midair. Adeshan’s eyes widened.
“Ro, Ronan?”
Before she knew it, Ronan was blocking her path. Her veins bulged and her hand held a silver candlestick. The woman who was holding the young man by the collar said she was shocked.
“Ha, did you stop it?”
It was she who threw the candlestick. A low voice came out of Ronan’s mouth.
“what.”
“If you’re lucky enough to stop it, get rid of the girl next to you right away! “When I see pretty things, I want to destroy them!”
The woman shouted, pointing at Adeshan. People were watching them with dumbfounded eyes. Sensing that she was fucked, Didi Khan placed her hand on Ronan’s shoulder.
“Hey, hey. calm down. “Even though it only received a small amount of power, it is still a dragon.”
“That’s right, Ronan. Me, I’m fine. “You don’t have any weapons now, right?”
Adeshan also tried to dissuade him. But something was already broken in Ronan’s mind. She couldn’t bear to think that if she had done something wrong, she could have been hurt. Clink. The candlestick, shaped like her hand, fell to the floor.
“What a pig.”
“Okay, pig? “Is that really what you said to me?”
The woman laughed. The goatee next to her was approaching, walking on her forearm. As soon as the stone floor caved in, Ronan’s figure disappeared from sight. It was a moment when Didican took a deep breath. Kwaaaaang! The woman holding her collar was sent flying backwards as if hit by her own battering ram.
“Wow!!”
“W-what?!”
People’s eyes widened. The woman flew forward with her body folded forward, smashing furniture including her table and chair, causing her to fall to the floor. She barely managed to raise her upper body and vomited her blood.
“Whoops, whoops! “What is this…!”
“wake up. “You pig.”
Ronan said. He disappeared for a moment and stood where the woman had been a moment ago. A golden afterimage shimmered over his legs, his muscles bulging. It was Varen’s auror that strengthened his strength. The woman’s abdomen, which had been hit directly by her kick, was dented in the shape of Ronan’s shoe.
“You don’t even need a knife to kill two pigs. Come on.”
“My, you know who I am…! “Gagging!”
The woman, who was trying to get up, collapsed and vomited blood. She didn’t deserve to get up. Because she could clearly feel the sensation of her ribs being smashed through her toes. She cried out that Ade Shan was there.
“Ronan! be careful!”
“Get lost!”
Ronan turned his head in the direction she pointed. The fist of her goatee was right in front of her eyes. The strong wind pressure flipped her bangs. If it were true that she had a lot of mana, her face would definitely turn into mush.
‘If it fits.’
Ronan laughed. He easily dodged his fist by twisting his head. Goatbeard let out a sigh of confusion. Ronan immediately rotated his entire body and planted a kick into his side.
“Huh.”
Goatbeard coughed up blood. Kwaaaaang! The body flew with such force that it landed in the corner of the hall. Judging by the feel, it seemed like they wouldn’t be able to make it either. The woman, barely able to raise her upper body, let out a gasp of astonishment.
“Yes, you dare! “Do you think you’ll be okay after doing this?”
“Then why are you throwing candlesticks at people’s faces?”
Ronan spat on the floor and approached the woman. She planned to beat him just enough so that he wouldn’t die. She exclaimed, her voice filled with anger as she caught her breath.
“···Oh, now that it’s like this, I’ll kill you all. Witness the power of Drahavier!”
“oh?”
For a moment, the tattoo on the woman’s neck began to shine. Her face contorted and her snout stuck out. Her thick tail, rapidly expanding flesh, tore through her clothes and protruded.
But it didn’t look particularly ugly, not only because it was an ugly pig, but because it had scales covering its body reminiscent of reptiles. Ronan frowned at her hideous appearance.
“eww.”
“Hahaha! How do you feel?”
Soon, the woman who had completed her transformation stood up. She looked like a bulked-up crocodile and was at least 4 meters tall. The wound on my stomach was completely healed before I knew it.
‘I need to hear something about this.’
Ronan twisted his lips. There was too much difference in weight class for them to fight in hand-to-hand combat. The energy had become several times stronger, and it felt like I needed to hold a meat knife to hold it safely.
“Now die! “This blacksmith shop is going to fail because of you!”
“Hey, it’s annoying.”
The woman who was laughing raised her arms. Ronan was picking up a piece of glass that had fallen on her floor. Suddenly, a blood-curdling scream rang out.
“Khaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!!!!
“what?”
The woman and Ronan stopped at the same time. It was a sound that could have been made if the intestines were pulled out alive. People’s attention was drawn to the place where the sound came from. The woman’s companion, Goatbeard, was on his knees making her scream.
“Say, save me! “Please save me!!”
“That’s…!”
Ronan raised his eyebrows. Before I knew it, the man in black had stood up and was grabbing his face with his left hand. The pupils in his red eyes were burning with anger.
“With one hand…!”
“You’re the black guy, right? “He’s a friend who didn’t show up even after all the fuss.”
“Why are you suddenly angry?”
People started to murmur. I couldn’t figure out why the man, who had been silent during the sit-in, was angry.
Why are you doing this all of a sudden? Suddenly, Ronan’s eyes, filled with doubt, turned to the large box placed behind him.
“no way.”
“How dare the by-products of mixed dragons be stained with dirty blood…”
The man in black muttered. Ronan laughed as if he was dumbfounded. For some reason, I felt like I knew why that guy came forward. There was a blood stain on the surface of the luxurious box, smaller than the width of his finger.
“You, are you…?”
The woman’s eyes widened. She seemed to recognize who it was. At that time, thick tendons bulged in the man’s hand that was holding her face. Pap-duk! The sound of her facial bones being crushed echoed through the main hall.
“Ugh! Uh, the face!”
Goatbeard was struggling, even foaming at his mouth. That desperate scream brought the woman back to her senses. She stomped away.
“You can’t let go of that hand right now!”
It was incredibly fast considering its size. The distance between me and the man narrowed in an instant. The black man glanced at the woman and strengthened the hand holding her face. Phew! The goatee’s head exploded like a water balloon. Blood and brain fluid flew everywhere.
“Well, Graham!”
The woman who saw the atrocious scene burst out in shock. I guess Graham was her man’s name. A fire lit up her eyes as she lost her comrade. The woman let out her angry roar and curled her body.
“How dare you-!!”
Its scaly body swelled to the point of bursting. Looking at her posture, it seemed like she was planning to lunge, spreading her body like a spring.
Are you planning on destroying something in the end? After completing her preparatory movements, the woman’s body was about to shoot forward. The black man’s hand blurred and she returned to normal.
“uh?”
Ronan’s eyes widened. She missed the action, if only for a moment. A sound as if the air had been knocked out of her woman’s mouth escaped as she was about to lunge.
“···Oops.”
Ronan turned his head. A silver candlestick broke off the back of her head and came out. The candlestick stuck deep in the gaping maw was the same type that the woman had thrown at Adeshan.
“Big… billions.”
thud! The woman’s body, which had been slowly tilting, fell to her floor. The man in black, who was looking at the two corpses, growled lowly.
【Bugs.】
Silence fell. He took his handkerchief from his front coat pocket and began wiping his bloody hands. Ronan raised his eyebrows. Although it was only for a moment, the same energy I felt in Katan’s studio came out and then disappeared.
“Whoop…!”
“Wow, this is really too much.”
The sound of retching was coming from everywhere. The man in black, wiping all his hands off, opened and closed the box. (Of course) There was no further fuss as there was nothing wrong with the contents. Ronan, who happened to run into him, opened her mouth.
“···You’re a dragon, right?”
“I’m interested in you. “Remember that.”
“what?”
Ronan asked, but there was no answer. The man in black walked forward with great strides, leaving the people behind.
The cold silence remained until he left Aurora Skaar. thud! It was only after the door closed that terrified voices began to be heard from everywhere.
