138 – Imperial Friend 2
“Let’s talk again!”
“……”
“……”
Aren, who urgently blocked the two formations, focused his gaze on himself and shouted.
“Tail! Einheart!”
“What.”
“huh?”
“Let me introduce you! My new friend! Bali Gia Raid! Be friendly!”
“……”
“……”
Tail’s face crumpled, and Einhart’s expression did not change.
Aren observed their reaction and this time spoke to Bali.
“Bali!”

“Ahh.”
“This is my friend Tail Boyd and Einhart Britannia! You know Einhart from the other day, right?”
“Hmm.”
Vali did not answer and watched what Aren did.
Aren broke into a cold sweat and finished the conversation.
“In other words! You guys are friends of friends! We call them best friends!”
“Why is a friend of a friend your best friend?”
“Einhart, is that important now?”
“Isn’t it important?”
Einhart looked at the knights around him and asked, but they couldn’t answer because they were wary of Bali.
Tail, who was watching the situation at that time, asked Aren.
“Why is Prince Vali in this dungeon?”
“that is…”
“That’s because this dungeon is our empire’s dungeon.”
When Aren was about to speak, Bali spoke first.
“You guys are the ones who broke into the dungeon that Kia Raid is aiming for… You must be prepared, right?”
To those words, Tails reacted immediately.
“Prepare for battle.”

“Wait a minute!!”
Tail growled as Aren stopped.
“Get out of the way.”
“You idiot! Don’t let your emotions sway you and listen to me!”
Aren reacted furiously and told Valli.
“Vali! I haven’t unlocked the barrier yet! Huh? I haven’t! You know!? If you want a dragon, listen to me!”
“Poop.”
At Aren’s overreaction, Bali laughed a little and put the sword in.

Aren looked at Tail again and said.
“What are you doing, you idiot. Tell me to put the sword in quickly.”
“… tsk.”
When Tail signaled with a gesture, the knights also inserted their swords.
Only then did Aren sigh and began to organize the situation.
“Now, from now on, my explanation…”
“Whoa! It’s a dragon egg!”
“Hey Einhart! Listen to me!”
Aren became irritated and began to explain the current situation.
After listening to the explanation for a while, Tail wrinkled his expression and asked.
“Isn’t it a dungeon?”
“Yes, and besides, the person who created the barrier was not the Great Mage, but the Dragon.”
“……”
Tail looked at the dead dragon for a moment, then turned his gaze and glared at the dragon’s egg.
“Are you breaking the barrier?”
“Yes, I’m solving it.”
“And hand that egg over to Vali?”
“Yeah, that’s what I decided to do.”
“Why… hmm.”
Taylor began to think for a moment.
‘Wouldn’t it be better to kill them here?’
Prince Bali found out that they were in the dungeon.
In other words, if this fact was known to the Empire, it would be the end of Boild’s journey.
‘…… No matter how much I think about it.’
I felt like I had to die here.
Then Vali, who read Tail’s thoughts, spoke to him.
“Are your thoughts organized?”
“……”
At Bali’s words, Tail’s gaze turned to him.
I met Tail’s gaze without avoiding the volley.
“… hey hey, wait a minute.”
Aren stepped out again before the atmosphere between the two took a turn for the worse.
“Vali, do you remember the deal with me?”
“I do remember. But now I know they are in this dungeon… Isn’t this a breach of your contract?”
“No, we were the only ones there before, right? Can’t we just end it well?”
“Well… there are too many people?”
Vali said, counting the knights of the Boyled family, including Aren.
“It looks like there are more than ten people. And besides, are all the people here really there?”
“Uh… isn’t it?”
The wizard and a few knights were nowhere to be seen.
And after hearing Aren’s words, Bali’s eyes light up once.
“then…”
“So let’s make a deal like before.”
Aren pointed to the egg and shouted.
“I’ll fry the egg well? Besides, honestly, wouldn’t it be very nice if you bumped into it right now?”
“Well, that’s right.”
“And Tail, wouldn’t it be troublesome if the fact that we’re in this dungeon spreads, too?”
“so?”
“Then it’s simple, right? If everyone shuts up, no one gets hurt, we get along well, we make friends. How good is it?”
“There’s a simpler way.”
Tail glared at Vali and said.
“Isn’t it fine if you don’t leave a trail?”
“Since when did you become such a bully?”
“You really need to be alert.”
Tails, on the contrary, scolded Aren.
“Where’s the guarantee that that man won’t tell us about us? What if he doesn’t keep his promise and spits our information out to the imperial family?”
“that…”
“The one who needs to wake up right now is you, not me.”
Saying that, Tail slowly began to lift his spirits.
Seeing that, Vali raised her sword again and glared at them.
‘Ah… what should I do?’
Do we really have to fight here?
Surely there would be no repercussions if I killed Bali here, but it was uncomfortable in many ways.
‘Once a friend is forever a friend.’
The moment Aren opened his mouth to stop him again without being able to do it.
“Quit.”
widely
Vali put her sword back into the scabbard.
“…?”
“… uh?”
Seeing the bewildered Tails and the others, Vali said.
“I don’t really want to fight. If possible, I also want to settle things amicably, right?”
“……”
Even at Vali’s words, Tail didn’t answer right away and glared at him.
Seeing this, Aren said to Tail.
“Hey hey, he even talks like that…”
“Shut up.”
“… Ji forced me to bring it, and it’s very good.”
Aren grumbled and closed his mouth again, and Teil spoke.
“What do you mean?”
“Literally. I don’t want to fight if possible.”
Vali pointed to the dragon egg and said.
“First of all, my goal is that egg. If you give up that egg, I’ll leave this place cleanly. Of course, I’ll never reveal any information about you guys.”
“Believe that…”
“I promise in the name of Gear Reid. If you doubt even this, I will kill you.”
“……”
Having said this, Tails also swayed for a moment.
‘… No, I can’t believe it blindly.’
Tail tightened his eyes again and said.
“I’m sorry, but I don’t think I can trust you either.”
“okay?”
“Ah, we have circumstances on our side too…”
Saying that, the moment Tail was about to return to battle, Einheart suddenly spoke.
“Then how do you do this?”
“hmm?”
“… what else?”
As Vali and Tail’s eyes focused on Einhart, he pointed at the dragon and said,
“There’s a dragon’s corpse. This is for Tail to take.”
“……”
“And the dragon egg is for Prince Vali to take.”
“……”
“Then we all get kangies, so we can’t just goof around, can’t we?”
At Einhart’s opinion, Aren spat out admiration.
“That’s it! My friend is a genius!”
“Heh, what’s this?”
“No, you are a genius!”
“It’s okay, don’t jump too much. hehehe!”
The expressions of the two conte’s tail were even more crumpled.
“Now that’s what I call an opinion…”
“Do that.”
“……”
At Vali’s words, Tail glared at him again and asked.
“Are you saying that we’re going to deal with such a clumsy opinion?”
“Are you clumsy!?”
“Yes, Tail! You, Einhart…!”
“I told you to shut up.”
Tail growled and warned the two High Humans.
“If we do something wrong right now, our family will be destroyed, so believe in those verbal promises? If things go wrong, will you guys take responsibility?”
“… no…”
“…so you brought me…”
Einhart reacted shyly, and Aren muttered as if it was unfair, but Tail ignored it and glared at Vali.
“Definitely, it is wrong to believe the words of the royal family of Kia Raid.
“That’s the story of the ancestors, and it has nothing to do with the current situation, so don’t bring it up.”
“Then what do you want me to believe in you?”
As Tail gradually improved his life, Vali’s thoughts began to change little by little.
“… just fight?”
The good feeling was completely gone.
I was just going to pass it by, but since the opponent didn’t seem to want to do that, I thought it would be easier to pick up the sword.
“If you want it, I’ll deal with it.”
“… ready for battle.”
The knights of Bali and Tail drew their weapons again and entered a confrontation.
The moment the two formations are about to collide.
Woo woo woo woo
“…!?”
“…!?”
The barrier of the dungeon began to shake.
“Huh? The barrier is breaking?”
“what!?”
Bali shouted as if surprised by Aren’s words.
“Hey Aren! What about Al!?”
“Huh? Of course I couldn’t solve it. Because you guys stopped fighting…”
“Quick release now!”
“So you’re not going to fight?”
“Okay, hurry up! I really shouldn’t get caught!”
At Bali’s words, Aren scratched his head in embarrassment.
“Ah, but what?”
“Why again!”
“There’s still a long way left to unlock the barrier? In the meantime, won’t the Kia Reid soldiers come in?”
“Ah… Ha ha.”
At Aren’s words, Bali looked at Al with pity.
‘this…’
The long-awaited dragon egg seems to fly away.
‘Whose faction are the soldiers coming in now?’
I thought about it for a while, but no matter how much I thought about it, it wasn’t my faction, and I didn’t have enough justification to take that egg from them.
‘… Ha, should I just take it away later?’
As I lowered my head with a mixed feeling, I heard Einheart’s voice.
“No, aren’t you okay yet?”
“huh?”
“why?”
When Bali and Aren looked at each other, Einhart shrugged and replied.
“Isn’t it not going to come right after the barrier is released?
“yes!”
Bali’s eyes lit up and shouted at Aren.
“Release the barrier right now! Quickly!”
“Yes, yes, I understand, so you should at least reconcile with him.”
“… I get it.”
Vali put on a serious expression and held out her hand to Tail.
“Circumstances have changed. You want to take the dragon’s corpse, too? Why don’t we cooperate here?”
“……”
Tail thought about shaking off Bali’s hand for a moment, but…
‘I think it’ll be fine.’
Seeing Valli’s floundering just now, it seemed unlikely that he would hand over their information to the Empire.
From noble mtl dot com
If we handed over our information to the Empire, it would be like handing over Bali’s own information to the Empire as well.
‘I can’t help it now…’
After looking at the dragon’s corpse for a moment, Tail nodded and held his hand.
“Okay, let’s make today’s work something that didn’t happen.”
“okay.”
As the two held hands and reconciled, Aren chuckled.
“So, how good would it be if we were friendly from the beginning? The barriers are quickly resolved, and we can make friends.”
“Aren, now that I know it, I ask for the barrier quickly. I really shouldn’t get caught?”
At Bali’s urging, Aren shook his head and snarled again.
“So from the beginning…”
“hurry!!”
“Your prince.”
