V55C8P1 – Crisis in Morata
It was a high, flat terrain located between Idern, Dale and Thor.
The wagons by Mapan Council and the dwarves gathered neatly at the predetermined location.
Each wagon was completely filled with treasures!
Mapan spoke as he walked with his chubby body heavily dependent on his cane.
“I feel stuffed just by looking at them.”
Weed had nothing else to say.
The stolen treasures were less than a third of what was inside the lair, but it sure was a massive pile now that they had them laid out across the Ulgor Highlands.
“Unfortunately, we lost 21 wagons during the transportation. Some encountered monsters and others broke down while rushing down the mountain. Changing routes due to the dangerous forest fire had a significant impact as well.”
Weed received Mapan’s heart-throbbing report.
The damages resulted from transporting while being chased by monsters down the steep Ulta Mountain Pass.
“How much inventory did we end up with?”
“About 4000 pieces of equipment. Metal alloys, mineral ores, magic ingredients. We scavenged a variety of goods.”
“That number is excluding the shares to be distributed to everyone who participated in the robbery, correct?”
“Yes. Aside from the equipment to be handed out, the treasures and antiques are being checked for their value. There are too many and I estimate about a week for completion.”
Weed and Mapan laughed together.
When they spoke about money, they appeared more similar than close family members.
Back then, he could not proceed with the quest, but now he was able to.
“Looking back now, this quest is very strange.”
He thought of the conversation he had with Blue Dragon Ratuas.
– Human, how much do you know about Yuskellanda’s death.
“I am a measly sculptor. I know nothing of it. If I ever did, I don’t remember it.”
– It is too early right now. Your abilities are not enough to stop what’s coming.
If you wish for stories, come to me any time. Whether you step up or not, the event will arise. Oh humans that Yuskellanda tried to protect until the end…
Weed felt a tingling sensation.
“Yuskellanda’s death. How it tried to protect the humans until the end bothers me. Maybe Kaybern wasn’t born with its furious mind, but could there be a messed up scheme by the dragons behind all this…?”
Normally, his dangerous suspicions tended to turn out true.
It was just that the reason for his hesitation of going to Ratuas and carrying out the quest preemptively was because there was a possibility that it has no relation to Kaybern whatsoever.
To make matters worse, it may very well become two insanely difficult dragon quests in his hands.
“This is troublesome. Very troublesome.”
Weed thought it was misfortune either way.
If the dragons were to be connected somehow, the scale of this event would be escalated greatly.

There were already monsters wreaking havoc across the entire continent and Thor region was devastated.
So why does it feel like the dragons will start a rampage on Versailles Continent?
“It can’t be. Just my cursed imagination from lack of sleep. Yep. That’s right… No matter how twisted and grindful my fate may be, it can’t turn out that extreme.”
Even so, the humans and dwarves were fully mobilized and moving into an all-out battle against Kaybern.
