95 – Merrick Car

Droea checked the paper the man handed her. It wasn’t hard to get the dense letters written on magic parchment into my head.

“The healing? That’s an interesting title.”

The concise title caught my attention. It was not a grandiose or long title. A paper with this title is one of two. Confidence in the content, or roughly made.

“The content will be more interesting.”

The man said the former. Would have to see Droea’s eyes rolled quickly.

The contents of the thesis can barely be understood by a magician of at least 6 circles or higher who has to stay up all night studying.

This is the amount of learning required for superficial understanding, and knowledge and knowledge of more than 7 circles are required to go into the subject of the actual thesis in depth.

However, Droea is a dragon that can be said to be the incarnation of magic.

A human’s crude magic theory could be fully grasped just by looking at it and scanning it. This treatise preached a fairly coherent theory, but Droea was able to understand it in one sitting.

I couldn’t figure out the strange basic magic of the man in front of me.

“It’s interesting.”

Of course, Droea also took about an hour to understand the contents of the thesis. In other words, the thesis that Ralph made by melting his greatest realization was completed in an hour.

Droea returned the parchment to the man. Then, with a sullen expression, he met his eyes.

“How are you?”

“There are a couple of conceptual errors. Because of that, I fell into a side road at the conclusion, but….”

But?

Towards the tilting man, Droea finished his words with his own beautiful voice.

“There is no problem with the content. With some corrections.”

“Could you proofread it?”

“Me? Why?”

I don’t understand. If he was a wizard like that, he wouldn’t have to borrow his own hands for such corrections.

Could it be that you’re just borrowing the dragon’s hand out of trouble?

I’ve often heard humans say they want to borrow at least a cat’s hand, but to borrow a dragon’s hand.

He is a very big human being even on a large scale. Droea shook his head.

“What the hell are you?”

“I don’t know how many times I get asked that question.”

“Anyone would say that when they see a human like you? I still wonder about the fact that you are human. That mana is definitely human mana….”

It is, of course, because of that human’s strange magic. A magic that has never been seen even in over a thousand years.

The magic was bringing an endless mystery to that man.

‘If you know the principle of that magic….’

Droea gulped. If so, he may be treading new ground.

Dragons are arrogant, lazy, and indolent beings, but they are by no means without a spirit of improvement. Being strong is the direction that all living things want. As soon as the growth platform that could surely leap upward shimmered in front of her eyes, Droea’s dragon heart began to run vigorously.

Cracks form on the expressionless face. The corners of her mouth, which slowly rise, represent her emotions.

‘For now, let him do as he pleases…. I’ll peel it off and eat it.’

Droea snapped her fingers. Her magic quill and parchment appeared before her eyes.

“Is it okay if I proofread the thesis?”

The quill fluttered in the air. A beautiful typeface suitable for a work of art fills the parchment. The man’s expression became satisfied.

“Good. Now, I have one final request left.”

“I can do as much as you like for requests of this level.”

If the price is a man’s magic.

The man smiled and snapped his fingers. A hard stone protrudes from the air.

‘That level of subspace magic…. After all, I’m not a normal human.’

The level of subspace magic that he showed for an instant was almost the same as his own.

“What is this?”

“It is the egg of the divine beast.”

After listening to the man’s words, I looked closely at the stone on the table and saw that it was a petrified egg. Droea’s nerves pricked at the word divine beast egg. No way, the dragon….

“It is not a dragon egg.”

“……I guess so.”

Droea looked over the egg and nodded. The egg the man brought was not a dragon’s egg.

“Is it Cloud Wing’s egg?”

“Oh. You know that.”

“It’s just amazing that there are humans who would say that to a dragon.”

The words associated with dragons are power, knowledge, and magic. When a dragon says, “I know this,” It would be normal for you to think, “Of course you do.”

‘Something annoys me….’

But at the same time irritating, it is strangely friendly. Has anyone else treated themselves so casually?

‘My fellow dragons didn’t either.’

A type of person that never existed in the past and was thought to never exist in the future.

Where did such a person suddenly appear?

Several questions passed through Droea’s head, but unfortunately there were no answers. He didn’t seem to give an answer even if I asked this man.

“I want to break the egg’s petrification. Is it possible? The dispel magic didn’t work.”

“I guess so. Being caught in this magic is a magic close to a curse. It’s a mechanism that simply cancels the magic side and the curse side restores it.”

That man is knowledgeable in magic, but seems weak in curses. Curse and magic seem similar, but they are different fields. It is clear that he has the upper hand in the total amount of knowledge.

‘Yes. You can’t match a dragon in terms of knowledge.’

I resisted the fact that I was about to smile. If you’re only happy about this, it’s not a dragon’s face.

Of course, he lost face by losing to humans.

“So can you do it?”

From noble mtl dot com

“It is possible, but…. This is not a good match for me.”

Droea, who tapped the hardened egg, looked at the man with sapphire eyes and continued.

“The divine beast’s egg is so sensitive. The dragon’s wavelength is not good. The removal of petrification itself is simple, but…. If the eggs are stimulated, hatching may be delayed.”

“How late is it?”

“One hundred years? Is it worth the wait?”

“Not if it’s human.”

At Troea’s answer, the man laughed bitterly.

“I can tell you how to do it. If you bring it to a human wizard, anyone can do it.”

“Ah…. That’s fine After all, there’s someone else to entrust. Just in case, I brought it with the thought, ‘It’s a shortcut if you do it here.'”

The man put the divine beast’s egg back into the subspace.

“Yeah, I’ve done all three requests like this. Then you should let me know too.”

“Are you talking about the magic principle? As I said before, there are no secrets. It’s just basic magic that has reached the limit… I guess?”

“Yes, yes. You don’t want to tell me so easily, do you?”

“No, it’s not like that….”

“Well, I don’t intend to ask too much about this kind of pastime. But someday I will definitely find out.”

At Droea’s fierce gaze, the man shook his hand and smiled bitterly. Since she doesn’t believe anything she says, the chances of her coming to her truth seem to converge to zero.

“Okay. Then, name.”

“Name? Oh, I didn’t even tell you my name.”

“Yeah, it popped into my lair all of a sudden, wrecked the Guardian and razed the front yard. Without giving out your name.”

“I…. I’m sorry about what I said, but the thing that destroyed the guardian and the thing that devastated the front yard was all Droea-sama….”

“You provided the cause. Is there such a thing as non-contact thinking in the human world?”

“Since you said that, I have nothing to say.”

“Clarify your name. Shouldn’t we know the name of the guy who trashed our house? Besides, he asked me to act as your teacher. Where in the world is there a teacher who doesn’t even know the student’s name?”

“I can’t argue with that. My name is Merrick Carr.”

“Merrick Car….”

Droea tried rolling her name on her tongue.

“Then, I will go back now. If there is anything you need, I will contact you. Next time we meet again, I hope we can smile like this and drink tea.”

“I didn’t drink much with a smile. Seeing that he interprets the situation in his own way, he is a human being.”

The man who identified himself as Merrick waved his hand and disappeared. It was as if he was possessed by his ghost.

“……Come to think of it, did you tell me my name?”

From entry to exit, he was an unknown man.

However, one thing was clear. It is clear that the appearance of that man will change his long and boring life.

‘Merrick Kara.’

He later said he would call him.

However, Droea did not intend to just wait for his opponent’s call.

“I’ll find it myself from here.”

Droea’s sapphire eyes shone. All he knows is his face and name.

But that was enough to find someone.

Shashot!

Droea using teleport magic arrived at the nearby information guild. When he goes out to play in the human world, he is a guild he often uses.

“Master. There is someone I want to find.”
