sad way to slay a dragon

He inflicts harm is another matter.

I will never do that kind of thing.Seeing her hurriedly shaking her head, King Yanlie smiled cheerfully.

That's fine.Because I love you too.

Use ancient magic to divide the world into two and escape the approaching catastrophe—but after King Yanlie proposed this method, the main figures of the unified kingdom and famous magicians from all over the world quickly passed the meeting this scheme.So in order to implement it as soon as possible, we immediately entered the preparation stage.

Because all the phantom beasts who will go to the world paired with the human world will act according to the orders of the Enere King, so there is no need for political preparations like humans.One day when she was busy working, the Dragon King spoke an inexplicable language to her. [Let's play a prank without telling everyone. ] When Relaisia ​​visited Sephaid's room, the Dragon King showed her a vial containing liquid.

The liquid in the bottle is a poison that has been forgotten by people, and it is said that it will only react to the blood of ancient people.The herbs that can make this antidote can only be collected in a certain area of ​​the human world.Although it is not fatal, but even if you continue to take the antidote herbs, you will be tortured by the effects of the poison for three years.And because it is not an immediate onset type, it is also difficult to investigate when the poison was injected.It was originally a very insidious method of killing, and even this kind of poison was a particularly bad type among them.

[I will give you more of Lei Huagong Alpha.So please protect Nadia for the rest of my life instead of me. ]

Through this sentence, Relaisia ​​understood all about the "prank" that Sefayd said.

Although the unified kingdom has been established, it is difficult to say that it is stable in terms of the status quo.Not to mention if the Holy Queen Nadia lost the help of King Yan Lie.Because Lei Hua may also go to the World of Eudemons, the number one combat power next to the Holy Queen, that is, the greatest danger to the enemy is the purple witch Rolesia.

Because the preparations for splitting the world into two are underway, a large number of people and supplies are coming in and out of the royal city. It is not surprising even if there are enemies who are trying to poison the deputy prime minister among them.

Rolesia took the bottle without hesitation.

[After all, I have the position of being the King of Phantom Beasts, so I can't stay here.So, I can only ask you.Please support Alu and Nadia well. ]

How can a small person like myself support Alpha Do, one of the Ssangyongs? You really make me feel ashamed when you say that.When Relaisia ​​said so, Sefayed shrugged his shoulders.

[That guy has no idea how tenacious a woman is.After all, he doesn't have a mother, and Shera will be jealous, so there is no way, right?Because you're always going to fall, or break your hands, or drop things, so he feels he has to be around and take care of you at all times.So he regards you as a pitiful, weak and timid, and a little clumsy deer. ]

Although Relaisia ​​blushed when she heard such accusations, her nature was not like this.

[Yes.You are the Purple Witch.Clever, and also ruthless and shrewd if necessary, if it were you, you should be able to protect that clumsy fellow, right? ]

It is an honor to be chosen as an accomplice of King Yanlie.Rolesia swore that she would never let down the trust of the Dragon King who had entrusted the two most important existences to her.

Finally, Sefayed said with a smile like a happy big red cat.

[Lori.Although you always like to think and worry, but no matter what others say, you can still win the victory of the happy person in the end.As long as your mind strongly believes that you are happy, no one can take it away from you.I love you oh.I pray for your happiness from the bottom of my heart. ]

At that time, he was already mentally prepared to die, right?But he gave Relesia encouragement with a smile that made no one notice this.

Now is the time for Rolesia to complete the vows she exchanged with him.

"Your Majesty, if you are not tired, would you like me to read you your favorite adventure story? This can be regarded as a sideshow before going to bed."

"... Lori. Can you hold my hand?"

Nadia weakly called out to her friend, and stretched out her left hand while maintaining a lying state.Relaisia ​​smiled as if facing a loving mother of a child, and wrapped her hands gently with both hands.

"I'll always be by your side. Is there anything you mind?"

"...Forever...Stay by my side forever. Don't leave me like Sefayd...Don't die in front of me...Please, Relaisia..."

Looking up at his friend, tears welled up in his eyes, rolling down his cheeks with the movement of his head.

Because so far, Nadia has never dreamed of parting with a dragon with a thousand-year lifespan, so this impact on her is particularly huge.

Although Relaisia ​​is older than her, because of her strong ancient blood, the flow of time in her body is different from hers.Nadia must believe that as long as her friend's time does not suddenly advance, she must be the one who dies first, right?

Rolesia could not blame her waywardness.Because she also did not expect the death of King Yanlie at all.

She was forced to realize how much she and others depended on him.

The vows exchanged between King Yanlie and Nadia allowed her to spend every day with peace of mind.Even if he is not in this world, as long as the pledger is in crisis, he will definitely come to help.In order for them to gain support from their surroundings, and to be strong enough to support each other after losing this sense of security, Sefayd struggled to live for ten years under extremely painful conditions.Even if they are long-lived creatures, their sense of time is different from that of human beings, the ten years spent in a near-death state can only be described as torture, right?

And what kind of response can I and others make to him?The great self-sacrifice and the depth of love displayed by the dragon make it impossible for humans to even have words of gratitude, and they can only be at a loss.

Rolesia impulsively stood up from the chair, and knelt down on the floor while maintaining her grip on the queen's hand.

"Although such a humble existence like me cannot take the place of the great Dragon King anyway, as long as I am alive, I will wholeheartedly follow His Majesty Nadia from the bottom of my heart. I hereby make an oath..."

"I don't want you to be bound by the oath...I don't want you to be like Saifa...force yourself...leave painful memories..."

Nadia sobbed unbearably.Soon her sobs turned into howls.

Rolesia climbed onto the bed and hugged her.

The swearer who lost the dragon clutched his friend like a child and cried bitterly.

Although she was also crying, the Purple Witch gritted her teeth and held back her sobs, thinking of the other half of Ssangyong who was not there.

Where there were no comforting voices, no arms around him, he—

Alphado has always held the consciousness that he survived through the ancient elves, so he always draws a dividing line between the world and himself intentionally or unintentionally.If he hadn't met the young Sephaid by chance, he would have lived with the elves in the primeval forest all his life, right?Because he never suffers from loneliness, he doesn't feel that he is unfortunate.

[I will give you more of Lei Huagong Alpha.So please protect Nadia for the rest of my life instead of me. ]

Upon hearing this, she felt it was a fair deal.Therefore, she accepted it unceremoniously.Although this proposal is tantamount to ignoring his friend's will and selling him to others without authorization.

However, now, Relaisia ​​finally noticed that there were other intentions hidden in this proposal.Now that Sefayd has passed away, the only one who can maintain Alphador and this world is Relaisia, who is the swearer.King Yanlie entrusted this responsibility to her.

[It's only natural that you hate me, right? ]

The only existence that can make Alphado really angry or smile.

Just as Nadia sighed, because it cannot be replaced, even jealousy is useless.

As natural as air, as necessary as air.Every time she saw the strength of the bond between them, she thought more than once, maybe it would be easier if she could hate?

[—I love you.I pray for your happiness from the bottom of my heart. ]

Relaisia ​​is not stupid, nor does she lack the vision to see men as a woman, so she can't really hate Sefayd who said that with a smile.That king is the king of flames who can give warmth to those confused by the darkness of their hearts, and shine brightly like a bonfire.

Lei Huagong Alpha stood alone on the top of the mountain.

If the mountain is so high, there will be no vegetation, no birds or beasts to be seen.Although people with unique tastes who like to overlook the scenery from high places occasionally climb here.But at a time when the sun is near the horizon, it would be foolish to aim for the summit.

It was so cold that it was about to freeze. If you stayed here wearing the same clothes as at the foot of the mountain, you would undoubtedly freeze to death without waiting until midnight.

However, even if it is the difference between cold and warm that can distinguish life and death for humans, it will not cause harm to the incarnation of the dragon.Wouldn't even make him conscious?

The mountain wind blowing made the pitch-black cloak and Alphado's long hair flutter in the void.

Let people praise it as if it lives in the sky
