Chapter 438: The value of the covenant
A boy named Safr, who showed up with a dragon body, rattled us forward looking too baffled.
Lyla groaned without moving as much as her hair, and grabbed her to chase Safrās tail as she bravely tried to rise to the sky and slammed her all over the ground.
Fire braces blow out of Saffleās mouth. Of course it wasnāt the intention to fight back, it just would have leaked in the shock. The direction of the injection was later, and still burned the tree dozens of meters away.
The lira of the dragon body is about 60 meters. The saffle, which is only 1/3 of it, is a good thing to say about adults and children. Itās about the size difference between people and cats. There was no reason to lose.
āOh, hey, something the rider said. Can I suddenly imitate that?ā
āThis one also has a rider. In the first place, the philosophy that people are covenants is polite. Itās the same thing as dragons. Not a single word of greeting goes to an outlaw who doesnāt know how to preach law.ā
Lyla grabs Saffleās neck as she tries to get up and lifts again and slaps him hard on the ground.
Now I grabbed my neck and squeezed it and slapped it, so thereās no flame. The ground just swayed with the roar.
āWhich, if you donāt want me to make a big deal out of you, Iām gonna have to break a cage a couple more times.ā
āWait, Lyla, aroundā¦ā
āThatās sweet, Lord Owner. A dragon kills people and so on in one place. Donāt insult your child Yancha with a good face.ā
āHe said if I did more than that, it would break somewhere! He said it would be irretrievable!
āIt wouldnāt be weird if Angelos was dead if the unintentional hit was successful. You have to make me pay for my disrespect.ā
Lyla says so in a grumpy manner and lifts her saffle again.
⦠Not good. He looks like a pain in the ass and heās not an exhilarating voice, but Lyla, heās super angry.
āMaia, stop Lyla! Mr. Deane, let me calm down for a second!
When I scream, Maia poses as a bah and becomes a dragon body, grabbing Safrās head and trying to take it out of Lilaās hand⦠so Lila says Maiaās head with her neck. Isnāt it too tight?
Sharon, fit in, aim at the wrist.
Timed with Sharon, who quickly took out the sword of love, and his gaze, Mr. Deane finds himself in shape.
And two kicks and slashes strike Lila in the wrist, like drawing a sharp-angled two-sided triangle from two points on the ground.
Lyla couldnāt help but take off the saffle. The already neat saffle drags Maia away from Lyla as she drifts.
Iāll watch that monster fight while I hide behind Almeida and Naia who remain close.
āGrow up. Red Dragon childā¦. Iām not on your side eitherā
Maia, the dragon body, says quietly and holds Safrās head to the ground.
āWe have riders. If youāre an unreasonable evil dragon, you have the right to kill him here.ā
āKu⦠oh, me tooā¦ā
āThat dark elf named Oscar is the rider?
āWhat makes you antagonize us? If we are in conflict with the justice of your riderā¦ā
āWhoa, you guys took that likaā¦ā¦!!
āYou think dragons lie about riders?
āOh, what a bad dragon would say!
Safr makes a fussy claim as he rumbles.
Obviously a bad dragon over here (you mean like a bad guy? No, more of a nuance like a felon) and decides to put the dragon covenant thing you just said up on the shelf and try to argue that you are only right.
Lila, who went from a dragon body to a human body (naked), sighed as she grabbed the wrists that had been hit by Mr. Deane and the others.
āYou donāt seem to understand the weight of the Covenant very well.ā
āDo you only think about the convenience of being a hero? Do you really think a dragon would allow a fellow killer with every such cheap decision? If you think itās that easy to talk about being at the top of all dragons, then this kid is still evil. Better get rid of it.ā
āBut the owner, my lord. Look around. The damage has already been done. This child has no vengeance in the world.ā
Sure, this could be a little too heavy a fact to look at and pretend not to see. At least people must be dead.
Whatever thatās a mistake, if itās the result of a childish justice done by a child who doesnāt understand the logic of this stuff, itās hard to leave it alone.
but thatās where a dark elf named Oscar came in to talk about it as a snack.
āThatās a misunderstanding. No, I donāt think thatās a misunderstanding⦠but it must have been you, Safr.ā
Mr. Oscar scratches his head when I snap his neck.
āThis is an abandoned village, originally.ā
I mentioned something Iām not sure about.
Apparently this was a village abandoned decades ago.
They used to be in the human countryside, but they decided to emigrate collectively at one point because the soil wasnāt very good, and on top of that there was a lot of disagreement with the Lizardman tribe.
Thatās a pretty common story in Celesta. The prints are wide, but not a single rock everywhere, and not without full policing. It is also by no means uncommon that interracial meals in places out of the sight of the administration are routine tea meals, so that one of them is expelled.
And although the remaining village land was sold to nearby landlords in a bundle of three sentences, it was long abandoned, he said, because maintenance costs as a village were not commensurate with the harvest and there was no prospect that trouble could be solved.
Mr. Oscar was apparently entrusted by his landlord with the management of the land. Although the very fact that it was an inappropriate land for agriculture had prospects of being able to improve with agricultural magic, it was said that it was in trouble without any prospect of making a compromise with Lizardmanās sense of territory. On the other hand, there was a proposal to ask Lizardman to become a dwarf, but they didnāt seem to show much interest in something called agriculture.
but thatās where Safr showed up.
Safr, who said he was looking for a companion named Rica, easily showed up for what he was also as a dragon. In contrast, Mr. Oscar seemed quite disturbed, but on the other hand, he heard rumors about the helicopter, so he had something flashing.
In other words, by purposefully rambling in an abandoned village to be noticed, I gather my ears and eyes so that rumors can reach even a person named Ricca. At the same time, under the authority of the Dragon, let the Lizardmen who worship them negotiate and solemnly draw their lines.
āWell, I mean, baked is performance. So when someone came here, I was going to explain it to them⦠but I didnāt expect any other dragons to come firstā
āKnow it. The evil deeds of dragons can only be stopped by dragons. A dragon with a heart or its rider would rush faster than anyone else.ā
Lila said that in a grumpy manner.
āI donāt see how you could attack me where you made it. I didnāt mean to, but I could have included it.ā
āThatās⦠repetitive, but I didnāt think the dragon would come first eitherā¦ā
āThereās a dragon out there that I donāt know, itās natural that you canāt relax!
Safr still remains a dragon body, screaming as Maia holds him down.
āAnd I was staring, saying it was the dragon that took Ricca away! Iām sure Rica followed a bad guy herself to cover me up because Iām just a kid and I canāt let her fight some other dragon⦠if thatās the case, heāll attack me as soon as he finds out where I am!
ā⦠what do you think youāre going to be after?ā
Visit wuxiaworld.eu for extra chapters.
Safr opens her mouth to squeeze out after a gusty clog when Lyla says it looks annoying.
āBecause I⦠I am a dragon born of human parentsā¦ā
ā⦠are you born of a human being called a dragon?
āSometimes that happens. Heās not an ancestor. If the dragon is a single parent, the child does not always become a dragon. It often comes out as a child of the other race. Then again, after generations, some children are suddenly born as dragons.ā
ā⦠is that like being targeted?
āIām not sure even kids are strong enough. Sometimes I can get my eyes on it⦠well, itās just a somewhat rare example, and itās not something a dragon would purposely take away and aim forā
Lyla shrugged her shoulders as though she was a reminder.
āI was going to yell at the palace who would allow such a kid to make a contract, but whatās the matter, half unconscious as a dragon? It sounds stupid.ā
āJi, youāre unconscious!?
Lila silences the sudden young dragon with her eyes.
āTo disgrace the covenant is less shameful than swimming shit. I donāt know where you bought it from, but donāt mouth the covenant with half your knowledge. Donāt put the rider on the kasaa. If you donāt stop my Lord, Iām gonna rip your limbs off and throw your neck in the ocean.ā
āThatās all a dragonās life and pride pact matters. Put that down, Lord Owner.ā
Lylaās totally turned that way, so I suggest Maia and Safr for now.
āUh⦠and anyway, it would be hard to regulate your voice even if you argued with such a good fit, and would you both be human bodies once and for allā
Beginning a juvenile situational hearing with Maia sidelined by the two becoming human bodies and still intimidating them from behind without alarm.
āI see. That lika is your rider⦠sheās been missing for a whileā
āRa, Ryder⦠I mean, well, Iām just taking it personallyā¦ā
āDear Andy, can I hit this liar about ten times?
āI canāt believe you didnāt even sign a contract to try to deceive the rider into holding and convict the other dragons.ā
āAnd I donāt know. Yo! I didnāt know you needed a ritual like that! My grandfather at the Palace, who told me about covenants and stuff, sometimes only taught me a little bit at a time!
āLies are lies. Fraud is fraud. You should be punished.ā
Maia punches Safrās cheek with goo without expression. A second shot in the back fist shortly after stopping.
You know exactly how important the covenant is to a raw dragon. I canāt believe this Maia runs wild in front of me.
āI canāt complain about being killedā
āShit⦠Iām a little older, so Iām on trackā¦ā
Third shot. Beating him to smash with the man-headed ice generated in one second.
ā⦠Hey, I didnāt sayā¦ā
⦠Maia is also seriously scared when she gets pretty.
āBut then thatās it, if we donāt find out how that Ricca disappearedā¦ā
āItās settled, someoneās trying to talk me out of a detached dragonā¦ā
Iām tired. Iām like Phaser if I think Iām going to be tired of something, this boy.
The type where you assume things are on your own, assuming itās a convenient development for you.
Iām sure thatās how you want to make dramatic enemies and dramatically help her out, or something like that.
āDo you know the race and the time of disappearance, the area of disappearanceā
Mr. Deane also asks the boy with a slightly tired face.
āUh⦠heās an elfā¦ā
āIf we figure out those three, weāll figure it out.ā
āDeane, can you afford to go along with this kind of kid bullshit, etc.ā
āYou wonāt be able to ignore it now. And Iām not the one looking into it.ā
Mr. Deane put his finger up.
āOrganizational strength is what we use at times like this, isnāt it?
