Ceremony Night

Rudra Town is a town in the coastal area of ​​the western continent, but it is only quite good. This city is still a town-like distance from the coast of this continent. It can be said that it is not a necessary city for travelers to get off the boat. However, because there is a decoration that is more interesting to humans, it has become a passing place that most pedestrians will choose.

After all, if you can watch the hometown of the Dragon Slaying Warriors and replenish the necessary items on the road, it will be a matter of killing two birds with one stone. Therefore, although it is not a necessary path, it is comparable to those so-called port cities in terms of traffic...

At the same time, because this is located in the Western Continent where both alchemy and commerce are quite developed, there will be many activities that are rarely seen on the East Road where Rorona was before - for example, in this gradually hot summer, almost every town will hold a summer festival.

But if it is so frequent like this town, almost every week, that is, even on this continent, there are only some particularly prosperous countries that can be compared? It’s like... this city is always in a carnival.

No, this is for travelers, and for merchants, such festivals have also become their advantageous promotional means for some goods that are difficult to sell in special periods, such as fireworks and props that are not very practical.

Such festivals even occupy a whole street in the center of the town, extending from the intersection to the end of the street, making this central area often fall into a carnival atmosphere at night. Although this may cause trouble for residents who do not like the excitement, fortunately, it seems that such things were expected. Most of the nearby streets are facilities such as "Magician Union" and "Mercenary Institute" that rarely open at night.

It can be said that such a festival is very popular for every girl. Now, two extremely lazy guys who should have been lying on the bed like dead bodies at night have rarely crawled out of the soft quilt and appeared on this street that is noisier than during the day after night.

A girl with long black hair tied into two pairs of ponytails walked on the street. At this time, not only did she stop at all, but she also had her mouth and her hands full of her hands. Although she did not, there was a completely pleasant expression from that expression.

It can be said that no matter from which angle, except that she is not wearing a bathrobe like other girls here, she looks like she is enjoying the summer festival - but if the people here, the girl walking swaggeringly in their city, belongs to the same species as the huge skull they hung at the gate of the city, would probably cause more than panic.

Or if she tells the truth directly, there may not be anyone, because here... and even most humans think that dragons are a kind of greedy, lethargy, and constantly depriving other species of species, or this is their right at the top of the food chain.

At the same time, it is precisely because of this that the dragon has become a target that brave men of all generations have often attacked...

This understanding also existed in the understanding of Rorona and others at the beginning, but after getting along with Simo, it was not entirely true. Perhaps the greed and arrogance were the same as all dragons, but what other places showed was that this guy was just a creature like them, moving in the world according to the **.

Of course, it is probably related to this guy's underage according to the age of the dragon.

After looking at Simo who was eating happily beside her, Rorona sighed helplessly. She should have been the only one who came out tonight, and the purpose was not to come here to visit such a festival, but to buy supplies that Allen did not buy during the day.

But after being with this guy in the same room, things turned out like this - but this is normal, because for Simo, it is probably the kind of daily life that is equivalent to money plus eating and sleeping, and in terms of priority, money is greater than eating and sleeping.

So since that's the case, it's understandable that the other party decided to come out to eat and drink after this.

However, I was thinking about whether the other party would attack the city just because they saw a similar skull hanging from the city gate, but I thought that the other party did not have such an idea. Rorona looked at Simo next to her, who was not as abnormal as usual, and finally couldn't help asking.

"Well, Simo... I said, won't you have the mentality of revenge against your kind?" Don't jump.

As soon as Rorona finished speaking, Simo next to her stopped suddenly. Even her mouth that had never stopped chewing food, which had never stopped before, paused suddenly, as if she had suddenly woken up due to Rorona's reminder. The silence made Rorona swallow.

"Revenge..." The delicate lips that occupied the tomato sauce started to murmur like this for a moment.

"For you, I will have the idea of ​​revenge for a guy I have never seen before." After saying this in a puzzled tone, Simo turned her head and looked at the other party. Her slender eyebrows frowned due to confusion, which made Rorona think that all the humanoid dragon clans look so cute.

"Same kind, are you the same kind of people called Rudra?" Rorona said with her hand, and the number of your tribe is very small. This way, you should not cherish the same kind more, right?" No, "I don't skip the word.

"Same kind..." Simo nodded in understanding, but then stretched out her green fingers again, pointing to the back of the girl closest to Rorona who was facing away from them, half-squatting in the stall next to catch goldfish, and continued to say that, if this guy was killed by a monster in front of you immediately, would you avenge her?" No jumping.

Regarding the other party's metaphor, Rorona was silent for a while, and finally shook her head slightly and said that if such a thing really happened, I would attack the monster that attacked humans without hesitation, but... it was definitely not for the motive of avenging the other party."

"Well, that's fine? The so-called revenge can only be established if the other party has a certain weight for occupying it. So what you said at the beginning that I want to attack this city for those whom I have never seen before is a basis and is just a waste of energy." Simo said, eating the last bite of food in his hand.

"I can attack the humans here to grab gold coins, and destroy the city just to vent my anger, but... I can't do anything to say because it's certain that it doesn't exist." Continue, and the killing of the human heroes... is a shame for us."

"?" Rorona showed a puzzled expression.

"Maybe our dragons have different views from those of you humans. For us, our existence is to establish a battle and plunder other races. This is our arrogance... So since it is the prey of the weak, for such a guy who has lost in the competition for life, he still needs to avenge him." Simo suddenly became cold and said it.

"That's true... it seems like all dragons are evil dragons." Rorona said naughtyly.

"Hmm? Isn't that the case? My dad has been teaching me like this..." Simo said, blinking strangely, turning his head to look at Rorona beside him.

"If you meet someone you like, you will rob. Of course, you will feel that you can't beat the other party. However, if the other party has some important weakness, you can also solve it with a softer 'exchange' method. If it really doesn't work, it can also be done by 'stealing'. But remember to use fire to burn the scene without leaving any trace after completion."

"..." The other party's description made Rorona feel silent. At this moment, she finally realized that the other party had said such a thing before.

"Your dad..." said ahhhhh.

"Oh?" Simo took it curiously.

"He's a complete bad guy." Rorona added in pain in the end.

"Oh..." But strangely, the other party had no objection at all?

After ending this conversation that seemed to have increased a little bit of mutual understanding, the two girls continued to walk on this noisy street, as if at this moment, they had completely forgotten their main purpose of going out - or in other words, it was not, because Simo did not take things like buying supplies on the road seriously from the beginning.

"It's true, because this is the hometown of the so-called dragon-slaying hero, it's 10% more expensive than other towns." Rorona silently looked at the snacks in Simo's hand and thought inexplicably distressedly-as this guy said, this guy has survived until now based on the principle of robbing someone he likes.

Of course, under such principles, it is even more impossible for the other party to buy and pay. At this point, the other party is a rare and extremely principled guy... But since he basically relies on grabbing and does not want to have conflicts in this town because of eating a king meal, then the only ones who can "grab" are all.

Maybe she doesn't need to suffer because of the existence of Allen, but now she seems to have no choice... Rorona can be said to have finally realized the feeling of "Allen's existence is so great" for the first time at this moment.

However, as they continued to move forward, they finally arrived at the city's ****. It can be said that even here, there were still various snacks and entertainment stalls, but they suddenly stopped because of a huge building similar to a ritual table that blocked them.

A huge giant sword that still emits a cold light was inserted down on the stone steps on the ritual stage in the middle of the ****—the total length was more than two meters, as if from the initial casting point of view, it was a super-large weapon born to massacre some kind of giant monster.

However, this is true in the identity of this weapon. It is said that it was this weapon that was killed by the legendary dragon slaying hero holding the heart of the frost dragon called "Rudra". After the death of the brave man, his sword was naturally worshipped by the villagers here.

Finally, like the giant dragon skull, it became one of the iconic buildings of the city...

The legendary giant sword that was inserted upside down seemed to be tempting every young man who yearned for justice and blood to pull it out of the stone steps and reveal its fangs to sin again

Or after realizing the possible thoughts, the people here did the same. Because a plaque was already on the right side of the ceremony stand, it said - "Sword of the Brave". Only the warriors who were truly chosen by the times could pull it out. Do you want to try it? The cost is 50 gold coins per time.

"Can this... really kill the dragon?" No jumping. Looking at the plaque "50 gold coins each time" and the traces of super strong glue at the junction of the giant sword and the stone steps, Rorona asked the real dragon beside her with her lips dry.

"Ha? Don't joke. If this could penetrate our scales, then there wouldn't be so many cities that just saw the shadows flying in my flap and flew in the vault. I had already started to prepare money in advance for the dragon. For humans, the most terrifying thing is not the dragon flame and huge body, but the scales of the dragon with extremely high physical defense and strong resistance to magic." Simo looked at the silly egg and looked at the other party beside her.

"Then this..." Rorona said suddenly.

"It's a fake." After touching his chin, Simo thought for a while and said it, maybe it was renovated. After all, it would be impossible to keep it in the sun and rain for hundreds of years... Of course, if it is a real treasure with a dragon scale nature, it would be a different matter."

"But it is impossible to just put it in casually for people to visit, right?"

"Yes..." Rorona said naughtyly, after a long silence, she looked at the sky - the first fireworks had exploded from the sky, and it also indicates that tonight's festival will end.

"Although we have come to the long-lost festival, we don't come out for fun," he said to the guy beside him.

"It's related"

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

The festival has ended, and the noisy crowd has evacuated from the streets that are temporarily brightly lit and began to move towards their respective residences. This surge of most people in the same direction at the same time makes the collision of their bodies an inevitable problem.

The delicate skin and soft touch of the girl in a bathrobe make this moment extremely rare and full of benefits.

Of course, these are very welcome things for the teenagers, but for the teenager who was also squeezed into the abortion of leaving and pressed his cap low, it was another kind of pleasure that made him feel - in this case, it was easy to get to the girl's skin, but also the purse that made the sound of a crisp coin collision.

The so-called warmth and desire, so that kind of thing is something that only lucky people who have no worries about food and clothing will care about. As for this boy named Zach, there is not much need to care about that aspect. For orphans in cities like them, only by living is a must-do.

In addition, even dignity is not necessary to be preserved. Compared with dignity, it is not as important as the calories included in a stinky bread.

Perhaps the festival is joyful for most people, but for Zach, it is just a boring and unbearable lurking stage, just like a cheetah waiting for the opportunity to relax his prey. When the fireworks exploded at the end of the festival, it was the time he was really looking forward to.

The first one... is a bit heavy, with about 50 coins. It seems that if it weren't for a very surplus guy, he would be a frugal guy who only looks at and doesn't buy it?

The second... It felt like it was dry, and there seemed to be only a few coins left... It seemed that Zach, a moonlight clan I met, thought, his subordinates were constantly shuttled through the crowd, and at this crowded moment, it was the best time for him to start.

The third...

The fourth...

When he successfully escaped from the crowd, he had five or six wallets in his arms, which could be said to be a great harvest. Sure enough, the harvest in this situation was much better than wandering around the streets during the day, but unfortunately, there was only such a festival in a week.

But this is already very good. Isn’t this gain this time? If I can maintain such income next week, I will definitely be saved... Although those priests who can heal are unwilling to go to those dirty places, just recite it yourself, right? As long as you have money.

This time it will definitely be possible

"Hey, today's harvest is very bad. If you can do this next week, then your legs will be able to quickly..." Zach thought so, pushing open the wooden door of the half-collapsed residence in the slums.

But inside, it was not the one who could sit quietly in a wheelchair and wait for his dependence, but... a black giant beast, like a horse, with sharp and hideous horns.

It was not a herbivores, but rather a carnivore's mouth, dripping blood from the gap between the fangs, and it was still chewing, but after it came in, it began to slowly raise its head and stare in this direction, making a loud noise - a small piece of arm fell from its mouth due to its movements...

Then, I slap...
