132 – Too many gathered! (3)
From nob le mt l. co m
Man Bingryong (萬氷龍) Arakrut.
He… No, she recalled the memory of the first time she met her, and her shoulders shrugged involuntarily.
A desperate fight with the old dragon that marked the end of the frozen bloody war. Among them, the one that actually bumped into me was Arachrut. Lucercesia just watched.
You don’t know how scared I was because I wanted to go to a tournament even though it was difficult to deal with.
Since she vividly realized what her death meant when fighting Arakroot, she did not dare to treat her carelessly. And the same goes for Aisha, who hates dragons.
The feelings of likes and dislikes are insignificant in front of his life.
If you are with me, you can fight similarly to this Manbingryong, but as an individual, you are an existence with overwhelming strength.
No matter how much Aisha is, you should pay attention. Even Aisha felt fear for the first time in her life because it was Arakrut.
A great being feared by the Great Witch of the Great Cold.
“Huum! What a cute creature.”
The old dragon appears in the form of a beautiful woman and sits across from me, putting his eel skewer into one mouthful. From the point of view of knowing her identity, the ordinary scene came to be surreal.
I wanted to summon Laminasis right now and rob it, saying, ‘You gave me such a big candy!’.
Arakrut, who puffed up both cheeks and ate the eel, seductively licked the sauce on his lips.
“Mmm, that sounds pretty good.”
“M-I’m glad you liked it.”
As if he still wasn’t full, he took out the snacks he had bought… No, he received tribute, one by one, and began to eat them. Each time they passed by, one by one they knelt down and offered it. You have to live your life like that
Is it because the original version is a dragon? Compared to its beautiful appearance, the form it eats is quite voracious.
Nevertheless, he was attracting the attention of the people around him, so it seems that the world is obsessed with looks.
“By the way… How can you look like that… “
Arakrut’s body is almost the size of an imperial castle. Each person is smaller than an Arachrut’s fingernail.
Of course, I thought the next time I would see Arakrut would be when I went to refill the old dragon’s mana, so I never thought a business trip service would be possible.
But I’m not very happy. Think about it. I went out to the words ‘Delivery~’ and if the dragon opened its mouth at the front door, wouldn’t it be confusing whether it meant that I brought the package or that I was the courier?
“Hmm… Hey, Heir.”
“Yes.”
“You… You ordered the Dragon King to do something quite interesting.”
Well, it’s ruined. I will die today
Aisha, who had been overhearing our conversation, thrust her head in abruptly.
“Ah! Come to think of it, you said you asked Raminasis for something, right?”
“Uh, that, right… “
I guess there won’t be any excuses anymore.
“Tell me with your own words.”
In the end, I had no choice but to confess the crime I had committed myself, and I spoke slowly, feeling like a death row inmate.

“Now… What did you say, master?”
Exactly one week before the Lunar New Year, while Aisha went to see Nanika, I sang Laminasis. For some reason, I remember her wagging her tail with a very excited expression.
But she opened her eyes wide as soon as she heard her words come out of my mouth, and she wanted to be sure that what she really heard was right.
“What you heard is correct.”
“But please tell me one more time.”
“Go to the frigid lands and bring me some dragons you like.”
Was the explanation insufficient? Laminasis can’t take his eyes off me with a dumbfounded expression.
I can’t help it. I need to explain a bit more.
“First of all, did you explain about a woman named Eriak last time?”
“Kidduk… I heard that you are a b*tch who dares to steal your master’s power.”
Uh, uh uh… That’s right, but let’s suppress our anger a little. Scary, hey My hair just stands out upside down.
“No, that’s right. The stronger I become, the stronger my nemesis becomes. So I thought about how to do it, and I came up with a good way.”
“Is that bringing the dragon?”
“Yeah, that’s right. Just get this.”
I asked Luktae to hand over a new long string-type metal accessory artifact and explained the effect of the artifact.
“This is an artifact that allows me to share one of my magic with an opponent.”
“Master’s magic?”
“Yes, the summoning magic.”
The way to prepare for Eriark’s existence was not to make me stronger directly, but to become stronger in an indirect way.
Yes, for example, by raising my summons that Eriak can’t summon.
“You go to the cold land and sign a summoning contract with the dragons you like. Then, whenever necessary, you can summon dragons and fight against them.”
Even individually, they are dragons with destructive power. Among them, the strength of the selected dragons can be enough to become my new power.
After hearing my plan, Raminasis nodded her head with a determined expression.
“Okay, Master. But will it be okay? I can pass through the ice castle thanks to the master, but the other dragons… “
Laminasis’ concerns were legitimate.
To explain this, I have to bring up an old story and the contents of the peace agreement I negotiated with the two elder dragons.
At the time when the three evil gods were rioting, the dragons who were defeated by Raen were banished to the cold land where the protection of the heavenly gods could not reach. However, it was not easy to keep the powerful dragons and ancient dragons intact.
So, the method Raen chose was conditional on a single gateway leading to the frigid land.
“Only those who have not drank from the fountain of ruin for a thousand years and have escaped Luna’s influence will be able to pass through this gateway.”
However, many of the dragons who did not comply with this condition lost their lives due to Raen’s retaliation. The dragons who accepted this offer were the ice dragon Arakrut and the depth charge dragon Luc Erkesia.
These two dragons, which have naturally accumulated strength over a thousand years, were called ancient dragons and began to be praised, but they were free from Luna’s influence.
However, the two ancient dragons, who had not forgotten their creator, defended the fountain of failure, but remained deaf to her words and stayed in the cold land.
Knowing this background, the peace agreement I signed with them can be summed up in two simple words.
‘Without my or Aisha’s permission, dragons cannot go south of the ice castle, and humans cannot go north.’
‘In return, you help protect the Fountain of Disruption, and the Elder Dragon can pass through the Ice Castle on the condition that it does not harm humans.’
The ancient dragons also had their own reasons to come down to the continent, and because I checked my lunatic soul, I was able to conclude a contract.
That’s why Raminasis asked.
Dragons quench their thirst at the Spring of Patan, the only source of water in the cold land. If so, it meant that apart from the peace agreement, it could not be brought back even with summoning magic because there was a barrier of Raen.
But you know one thing and don’t know the other two.
I… I have both Raen’s Protection and Incarnation. I have already received confirmation from La Crucio.
[ Dragon? Bring it Coming under the master is the same as being under Raen’s protection. Would you rather like it? ]
And I have to check if the Balaur are included among the three races that declared war on me.
“It’s okay, so go and sign a summoning contract with as many dragons as you want. And ask the old dragons. What thoughts do the dragons have about the goddess’ declaration of war?”
“Yes! I will follow your orders!”
Responding vigorously, Laminasis put the jewelry I gave him around his neck. And then he smiled softly.
A combination of a maid and a choker… Is such an immoral combination really okay?
I had never seen Raminasis smile so happily, so I couldn’t bear to say that the trinket was a bracelet.

That was a week ago.
And the old dragon in front of me calmly munched a waffle topped with whipped cream and said.
“Heir. Didn’t you directly ask my intentions?”
No, but did you think the old dragon would come down directly?
“And the Dragon King made every effort to dedicate our clan to you. Thanks to that, I’m worried because I don’t know when the goddess’s wrath will fall.”
Due to the nature of Raminasis, if it were my order, he would have thoroughly prepared himself. Perhaps a tournament was held to determine superiority and inferiority in a snowy field in a blizzard.
But in any case, if everything goes according to my plan, I will have to endure some complaints.
“Sorry. But it was necessary.”
“Hmm… “
Arakrut narrowed his vertical pupils and stared at me. I wish you wouldn’t look at me like that. As she felt her mouse in front of her snake, she immediately asked a question.
“Heir. Apparently, you don’t know how many dragons the Dragon King has recruited for you.”
“I haven’t heard of it yet.”
Even if you don’t listen, you can get a rough estimate. At best, only about 10 of the elites who faced the dragon slaughter were selected…
“Everything.”
?
Yes?
What did you say?
“I… Wealth?”
“Yes. Entire. Except for me and Luc Erkesia, all the Balaur were brought under your command.”
‘Ra, laminasis… !’
You collected too much!
