The door reopened, and Rafael rubbed his slightly red neck, where the human warmth still existed, lingering in his ears just like his words.
The white bedding had been moved into the room by Lal and the others. At the door of the room, Lal poked out a pair of watery eyes and carefully looked at Rafael who came out of Fisher's room.
"Lord Rafael...did he...did he hit you?"
After entering the room, all the bedding had been spread on the floor. Her share was next to the door. Lal sat on the bedding next to her and looked at Rafael's face which was red from being pinched with some worry.
Neck, Lal is the youngest among them, but when he saw such a situation, his eyes became soft, as if water was about to leak out.
Rafael was slightly stunned. She was still thinking about the game conditions she had just reached with Fisher. She was unable to answer for a moment. The slave emblem on her chest was still there, but only a simple empty shell was left.
I have the same sense of control I had before.
"..." She opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't reveal anything. She just gently hugged the petite Lar in front of her, "No... don't worry, I will take you home."
"Lord Rafael..."
Kehir and Fahir behind him are twin sisters. They are relatively rare white dragon people in the tribe. They were originally arranged to be Rafael's escorts and playmates. Who knew that because Rafael...
Myr was caught by humans because of his negligence. Myr is the oldest among them and the only adult dragon. He has already held a wedding ceremony in the tribe and has chosen a suitable mate. Now he is captured.
It has been a long time since Laiye saw her relatives.
If it were not their fault, they would never be allowed to leave their hometown.
"Button..."
Just as Rafael hugged Lar in his arms, the door frame behind him was lightly clicked, and Fisher appeared at the door. Except for Rafael and Lar, who was hugged by her, everyone else
They all shrank back subconsciously.
"Come out to eat."
After saying this simple sentence, he disappeared at the door.
The dragons in the room looked at each other, but only Lal's belly rumbled in response.
"Lord Rafael, I'm so hungry..."
Lal's pitiful voice sounded in his arms. Rafael looked around, but he also saw his companions looking at him.
"Let's go."
After walking out of the room, Fisher was no longer in the carriage. Looking up the stairs, the door there opened, revealing the almost dark sky outside.
Rafael took the lead and walked outside, the fresh night wind hitting her scales. As soon as she stepped out of the carriage, she remembered the rules of the game she had made with that human being, which meant that she could assassinate him outside the carriage.
As long as you kill him, you will win the game and gain freedom.
Her green eyes lit up slightly, and she subconsciously searched for the figure of the man.
But I saw the man standing by the river, holding a strange long wooden stick, looking at the wilderness on the other side of the river. In the dark wilderness in the distance, a few slightly lit eyes looked at this side.
Fisher raised the "long stick" in his hand and pointed it into the distance. Rafael suddenly realized something and raised his tail slightly. The next second, he heard a loud noise from the stick in his hand.
"boom!"
"Roar!!"
Fisher looked at an unlucky wild wolf that fell on the ground in the distance. The wild wolves around it were frightened and fled in all directions, so the terrifying roar was not made by them.
He put away his musket and looked back at the red dragon whose pupils were completely shrunk to a thin line. He saw that her scales stood up slightly, with lots of hot steam seeping out of them. She lay on the ground and watched warily.
The man holding the gun seemed to be afraid that he would shoot him.
All the other dragons hid behind the carriage, only showing their somewhat frightened eyes.
I see.
Fisher glanced at Rafael and calmly withdrew his musket.
"Can you make a fire?"
"....Roar."
Rafael's legs and claws were trembling slightly, and there was still a little roar in his mouth, like a frightened beast.
"If not, go and pick up the wolf. If you don't want to starve at night, move quickly."
He held the gun and put the terrifying murder weapon behind his back. He ignored Rafael who was lying on the ground and kept fighting, walked straight to the side of the car, and pushed away the dragons hiding there.
"excuse me."
There is a portable fire in the secret door here. You can use magic to make a fire. I don't know how many times it can be used. The magic circle was already very weak the last time I used it.
Magical things are like this. It takes a long time to build a magic circle, it is not durable, and it is very expensive. No wonder those guys in Saint-Nali study steam engines every day.
"Then...what is that? The one with the sound..."
Fisher, who was setting up the fire, suddenly heard a soft and soft sound. He thought it was the chirping sound of the earth spirit in the ground. When he looked back, he didn't expect it to be the smallest blue dragon.
Talking to myself.
His name is...Lal, right?
She looked at the musket on her back with a pale face, and looked at the smoking muzzle with lingering fear, as if the bullet that hit the wild wolf had hit her, which made her touch herself with empathy.
scales to make sure there is no blood oozing there.
"this?"
"..Um."
"It's a gun."
Fisher replied to her while activating the magic circle that was about to disappear, without even looking back at her.
"Is it made by magic?"
"No, man-made."
"Is it used... against us?"
It was unclear whether she was referring to the demihuman race or the dragon race, but obviously this guess was not accurate. There are always countless flaws hidden under the glory of human civilization, so he shook his head,
"No, it's used to deal with humans."
Lal opened his mouth, his brain's thinking was like a cauldron, still brewing the flavor of the conversation just now.
"Lal!"
Mir behind her just didn't look around for a second or two before she realized that Lal was talking to the dangerous human being, and the human suddenly stood up with a gun raised. She was so frightened that she immediately ran towards Lal and wanted to use her body.
As he protected her, he saw the human shooting at the other side of the river bank.
"boom!"
The soil in the distance was blown up by a shot, and there was a panicked shout after that,
"Damn, Rania was hit!"
"Go quickly, that bastard is not easy to mess with!"
"Press his chest, he's bleeding!"
In the darkness, there was a commotion over there, with faint sounds of quarreling, and one or two random gunshots, like firepower set off randomly to cover the retreat of one's own people.
Lal, Mil, and the others who came over stared blankly at the figure gradually disappearing into the darkness on the other side of the river. They couldn't help but opened their mouths and looked at the expressionless human male who started to play with the fire on the ground again.
The Southern Continent is full of gold, which has attracted many explorers from the Western Continent to explore these precious treasures. Of course, there are also some desperadoes among them. Before Fisher came, he heard that the Parliament wanted to exile those heinous criminals to the Southern Continent.
Go to an island next to the mainland because it can save a lot of costs in building and maintaining prisons.
In short, the Southern Continent is a mixed bag of good and bad, resulting in many people staying here forever and unable to return to the Western Continent.
The bandits just now were probably attracted by the sound of gunshots and the sound of horse hooves. Fisher, who had improved his physical fitness, keenly heard their subtle conversations.
The results of the previous demihuman research brought him many benefits, such as his extremely strong physical fitness and observation ability, as well as the ability to drive magic.
"Lal!"
Rafael also ran back with the wolf on his shoulders, and he breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that Lal was still safe.
Fisher glanced at her expressionlessly and pointed to the already lit fire under him.
"I have research to do in the evening, let's eat first."
Others did not understand the meaning of Fisher's words. Only Rafael tightened his lips slightly and stared at the figure of the man in front of him.
