V54C8P1- The Plan of the Dwarves
“That is my sword technique.”
Weed stopped the swing of his sword and walked closer to the Half-elf.
“You are right.”
“Were you the one who sought for me?”
“I have arrived to this place in order to fight against Kaybern.”
The adventurers that led the maze expedition had backed away to a distance and listened quietly to the conversation between them.
Vishur raised her lean body.
“Kaybern is truly a dreadful dragon.”
“I’m fully aware of that.”
“Has attacked again, causing the humans to fight against the dragon?”
“Yes.”
Weed started to talk about Kaybern who destroyed cities and raised monster invasions. He did not forget to criticize him in the midst of his explanation.
“The peace of the continent will never revisit us until we slay that smokey dragon.”
“I see. So, the reason for Kaybern’s attacks is because of its egg?”
“That’s right.”
“That may not be a real dragon egg.”
“Excuse me?”
Vishur’s next story was a shock in its entirety.
The Black Dragon Kaybern had thought of the elves as a nuisance since long ago.
Unlike the dwarves that it could rip off through its harassment, the elves were a noble race with pride.
They were untouchable under the protection of the World Tree and the Green Dragon.
Then, Kaybern devised a scheme that would give him a cause for harassing the elves.
The dragon egg!
It sent a fake dragon egg forged from magic into the elven forests, and when it broke, it used the egg as an excuse for the assault.
“Black Dragon Kaybern burnt down the forest and murdered elves. Even the World Tree, the genesis for the elves burnt to ashes. From that day on, the elves lost the forest.”
“So, that’s what happened.”
It was surprising, even for Weed.
What Kaybern committed were the actions of a bunch of thugs.
He was stuck in a swamp of dilemmas.
Even if he were to obtain the Brazier of Sacrifice, he had to bet everything on the line for the Kaybern hunt.
