Chapter 553: Crystal Palace 1
Leaving Karlwyn Royal Palace with Lleida in Maia, and Tenari Combination, we head to a nearby mountain.
I hear Crystal Palace is at the foot of that mountain.
āI donāt know if it should be more at the top of the mountainā
āNo, because I thought we were going to make Dragon Palace a hard place to goā¦ā
Lyda puzzles me with questions I donāt really understand due to my bias while riding in Maiaās hands.
āI am a dragon born after the annihilation of manās kingdom over this land, so only a few times have I seen a man reach Crystal Palace, including Reiner Excelisa. Itās a place where demons donāt come by, and I was wondering if itās an easy place to get to.ā
āYouāve been here besides the linerā
āI havenāt checked, but Iām guessing all of them were called brave.ā
Speaking of which, I thought you said something like Naia had been here once.
And if I thought, Chibi Maia showed up over my shoulder to supplement it.
āDragons live away from people because they get in the way when theyāre too close to each other. Even dragons sometimes shy away if other races are about to want easy land. But there isnāt one here in the first place.ā
Iām not in the habit of making a palace in a place where dragons are dangerous, but Iām letting you out of the way if youāre about to wear a living area with humans and other races.
So, people donāt walk outside here in the first place, so thereās no need for that, either.
āI know it is now, but how could it have happened in the Northern Six Kingdoms?ā
When Naris says so, Tetes teaches in advance of Lyda.
āIāve heard thereās also a Dragon Palace in the middle of the plain in the South.ā
ā⦠Naris, youāre from over there.ā
āUgh, shut up. Iām not familiar with it because it didnāt come close to talking about dragon relations.ā
āThe perimeter of the palace is completely blank. You think itās a tacit understanding that even in times of war, we donāt march in the area with natural imperatives?ā
āWell, I will⦠yeahā
Will that happen in the end?
It just so happens that the palace I know was spontaneously folding, and even if it wasnāt, it would turn around.
Once landed a few kilometers to the palace.
āBye, Lleida. Nice to hear from you. I know you do⦠but you shouldnāt think about surprise attacks or anything like that on me now.ā
Iām bigger now than my powers as a dragon rider, and the fact that I donāt have the ādragon what do you doā face behind my back, starting with Mr. Deane.
After this, if the dragons hit me headcount, none of Maia would be able to make me a deceased. But thatās the scenario to doom that Rheda is most concerned about.
Lyda kneels (on her knees) at me and gives me a compliment, then turns into a dragon body and wings to the palace.
Naturally, itās a few steps bigger than Maia, who canāt say sheās still mature. It would also be possible for her to twist and crush me, two escorts, and Maia by herself if that bothered her.
āDeane, is the Hundred Trying Mr. Lleda?ā
āBesides, I donāt think youāre going to use my life for this.ā
In fact, I guess everyone else would be safer to turn this way.
but because of their location, they will not be able to cope if the liners show a move to target the craftsman village camp, and they will also be seen as demonstrating their will to attack Crystal Palace.
If you get all the resistance you can with a rash, itās the end of the line. If the rest of the dragons donāt mind pretending to be all over this way, they could be worse off than they are against the liner.
Leaving it as Irina says is also a cold spot in her spine, and I would like to think that Ms Deaneās decision that this is by far her best hand is correct.
āItās a hard place to be a good commander.ā
āThe truth is, Deane, even a hundred people, even if you want to zero in on your husbandās danger, taking a slightly more dangerous better over the balance⦠even though itās a loss of characterā
āHmm, well heyā¦ā¦ dragon. Youāll be forgiven for running away.ā
Naris, youāre totally being personal, arenāt you? No, itās also a general theory.
āBut I donāt want to wait for this to end.ā
āBut thereās someone whoās not even fighting, and now doesnāt even have an arm⦠in a life-threatening battlefield. Isnāt that what youāre saying?
Yeah. Youāre straining everyone, arenāt you? I know. Iām sorry.
āBut still, if I do it right, youāre gonna get results that you canāt ignore, right?
āItās the worst line Iāve ever had when I couldnāt do it right.ā
Tess is spicy. Donāt hesitate to be spicy because everyone came and could afford it.
⦠and the silver dragon figure coming back from the palace, even while weāre talking about such a stupid story.
The speed of travel is so fast that it was done while we were standing talkin āabout moving in kilometers, having a little conversation, and turning around.
I hope itās a good form of reporting.
āHow was it, Lleida?ā
āThere is also a dispute (hummus) in the palace. Those who have returned before me have brought home a declaration of war from you.ā
I had intended to propose peace, but what Mr Deane said is a complete declaration of war.
If I had received that one decently, I would have to surrender unconditionally or fight. If it werenāt for the liner, there would have been a covenantly unconditional surrender of the dragon of following the dragon rider⦠you wouldnāt be joking if you took it from the person in charge of the liner. Besides, itās Mr. Deane, not me the rider.
Mr. Deane, I think it might have been a stomach buildup to smash it if I was going to crush it⦠but then thereās no place for the elders or Emmas.
āUm, can you just let me explain it directly to you?
āCan you do that? I want to avoid killing each other from the front, too.ā
āIs that okay, sir? If it was a trap, I would go from the frontā¦ā
āThe liners arenāt contracted that far either. It wonāt be enforceable against dragonsā¦ā¦ I think. A sympathizer is not enough to make a grand, cowardly imitation within an arguably palace.ā
āIāll be sure to protect youā
Lyda says so with a hard look and kneels.
āItās my role to protectā
āWell, for once, weāre escorts, too.ā
āUm, excuse me, Iām here to tell you, but donāt expect anything from me when it comes to that phase first, okay?
Maia (dragon body), who keeps her neck close and declares to protect me like a dragon, and Tess, who shows her will to protect once and for all, and honest Naris everywhere.
āIf we canāt contain this place, there will be dead men in our female slaves and in the Sword Saint Brigadeā¦. Hey, glad Iām here.ā
āYes, but⦠itās a very strong heart, my lord.ā
āIf itās someone you can talk to. Much better than demons and Jeddah kings and liners.ā
āYouāre paralyzed by being too irrational with someoneā¦ā
Thatās why I let Lleda take the lead and board Crystal Palace in Maia.

Crystal Palace, so I imagined it was like a castle made of crystals, but it didnāt feel so gorgeous.
Though closed from around by a chopped cliff, it usually feels like a village around it. No, Misty Palace was too lifestyle and environmental.
Crystals like the one from which the name comes⦠stand like objects all over the village, but I donāt think these were very naturally found in the land, but they were made and placed somehow later.
The rest felt like a rural village lined with stone houses that seemed more or less everywhere.
āThatās pretty small.ā
āItās about a hundred even if you collect them all. Thereās plenty of room on this scale.ā
ā⦠well, you know what?ā
Considering that the Hundreds live⦠you certainly donāt need such a huge lot. Yeah.
If you think of it as a hundred dragons, that seems like even one mountain is missing.
āWelcome, Dragon Rider. Crystal Palace welcomes youā
In the square in the middle of the palace, the stylish silver-haired beauties welcomed me with a hard lookā¦. on the shape.
āThank you for the welcome. ⦠so letās get straight to the point but skip the details and talk about it with a broken belly. Weāre in a hurry.ā
ā⦠to confront Lord Reinerā
āThatās what Lord Reiner shouldnāt do. Why are you trying to defeat him?ā
Thatās where it comes from.
And, I almost got sick of it on the inside, but there Tess bought me a supplement and got out.
āThis one is trying to save one girl. A girl named Naia Grance is trying to save the valley country because she smiles. Reiner Excelisa took the hegemony and was incompatible with it. Then we have to fight.ā
I can turn a steep eye, but Maia answers quietly to that.
āI warned youā¦. boring rhetoric, not according to the Covenant. And the reward of insulting our people and trying to intimidate them with forceā
ā⦠pale compatriotsā
āIf youāre a dragon, be more ashamed than resent people for fighting and losing from the front. My lord only originally confronted the riders. And all the dragons who have been slaughtered on top of it have been slaughtered with just a manās weapon. Is that injustice?ā
ā⦠so you tell us to back off a lot when we lose our peopleā
Take Maiaās words, and Iāll say Iām arrogant.
āWhat are you going to do without pulling back? Youāre only gonna fight about the liner? I donāt fight for nothing. But if the dragon really gets in my way, Iāll get rid of it. Are you prepared to bear that stigma?ā
Stare at the silver dragons.
I close my eyes a little, and again, with the help of my predecessor.
Like him, ascend to the dimension of the strong.
Tell yourself Iām in the same dimension, no matter how many dozens of them are, an army of nightmarish dragons, and look to them without overestimating or underestimating them.
āIām not telling you to surrender. Those are words my woman left to anger. But back off. Iām not interested in fighting you guys. If you donāt come, you donāt have to kill me. Weāre just people. You canāt beat a dragon safely without killing it.ā
āSay it again. Iām in a hurry. If it bothers you, get out of the way. After talking to the elders, letās hear the answer again.ā
If I say that and walk from the front into the middle of them, Lyda, Maia, Tetes and Naris will follow in a hurry as well.
And the silver dragons roared at me for a while, and.
āGet out of the way, Iām telling you. Or did you get the answer?ā
If I walked right in front of him and asked him so quietly⦠the man who was in the middle of the dragons eventually cleared his way and knelt.
ā⦠letās back offā
Thatās what I said, Iāll shake Lydaās head and Iāll take care of the guide.
ā⦠Are you sure youāre the ten head Smythsonā
āWho do you think you are?ā
āNo. Um, only to someone elseā
Look me in the eye like Naris sees something weird.
āNarisā¦. talk to Naia or Bonaparte later, you should askā
āMaster Andy is very strong against a strong opponent.ā
⦠Donāt sound weird, I thought, but I decided to keep my mouth shut because the dragons would ask me where I was if I opened it at this palace.
