10 – 10. Bolg’s Lies (4)

It was easy to win the hearts of naive villagers.

Those who were already in a state of confusion from the big events of the day were easily sucked into Bolg’s absurd tales.

The only person looking at him with suspicious eyes was the old village chief. Lewis, who was next to the village chief, was also already immersed in Bolg’s story and had his mouth wide open.

“The dragon roared so loudly that the whole mountain range shook! But brave Lord Ardamir and I went forward, not at all frightened by the dragon’s roar. Now, not only was our mission to save the kingdom’s citizens being tormented by dragons, but the life of a beautiful and pitiful fairy who trusted and waited for us was also at stake. Once you decided to move forward, there was absolutely no room to turn back. No, even if I had, I wouldn’t have backed down! Pull out your sword! “The time has come to punish evil!”

Bolg placed his hand on his empty waist and pretended to pull out a non-existent sword. Bolg continued his story, holding the intangible air sword he had drawn and swinging the sword several times in an exaggerated motion that seemed comical at first glance.

“But the dragon’s red scales were extremely hard! No matter how well-trained the steel sword was, it was too much to pierce the dragon’s scales and cause injury. Lord Ardamir’s treasured sword was able to at least dent the scales, but it was not enough to cut off the dragon’s head as he had initially boasted. A desperate situation! The evil dragon cleverly realized this and was confident of his victory. The red dragon laughed evilly in front of us and prepared to spit out his fiery breath. “It was a terrible crisis!”

Bolg sighed in pity and clenched his fists. At the same time, the villagers who were deeply immersed in the story sighed and despaired just like Bolg.

“It is unavoidable. Even if a brave knight other than Lord Ardamir comes, he will not be able to defeat the evil dragon.”

“We also saw the red dragon in person today. Where is the hero who can defeat that terrifying monster? Even the legendary King of Steel, the founder of the kingdom, will be one group that does not come.”

The townsfolk whispered in despair as Bolg closed his eyes and paused for a moment to tell the story.

The villagers, who thought that there was nothing they could do about it, also focused their attention on Bolg with a curious mind when he opened his eyes and raised his hands high.

With the hope that the brave Sir Ardamir would sting the dragon.

Bondi people cheer for the story of a hero and like to hear the story of a hero. Because they long for a hero who can do what they cannot.

The villagers were truly immersed in Lord Ardamir.

“How much do you all know about dragons?”

What Bolg actually said was a question, not a dramatic development that the villagers were expecting, such as how Lord Ardamir defeated the dragon with unbelievable strength. Bolg smiled sinisterly and asked the villagers back, recalling his old memories of living as a mercenary.

It was during Bolg’s youth. It was when he was abandoned by his parents and did everything from shoe shine to errand boy to pickpocket.

A dwarf elf swordsman whom Bolg met while rolling randomly and doing anything. The drunkard, the dwarf swordsman, who said he had lived for 80 years, told the young Bolg, who was sitting in front of him, that it was valuable knowledge, and told him a few bundles of stories he knew.

The secret test of the cow-headed giant who destroyed the kingdom, the headless specter knight, the hybrid of dragon and human, and the black magicians who artificially create fairies. A huge black dragon somewhere in the world.

At that time, Bolg at that time, as usual, thought it was a drunkard’s nonsense and brushed off most of it, but among the stories he heard at that time, there was only one story that he could not forget.

Oddly enough, that story had come to the young Bolg’s ears. If you think about it, wouldn’t it be a fateful story that I instinctively remembered for this moment.

The dwarf swordsman fell on the table and muttered, not paying attention to who was listening.

Even mighty dragons have weaknesses.

dragon’s crest.

“Did you know that dragons are by no means invincible creatures?”

***

It was morning.

When I opened my eyes, the little fairy that had already been sleeping on me was gone, as if it were a midsummer night’s dream.

Was it really a dream?

Even if it was a dream, there was nothing strange about it.

A young fairy who entered the dragon’s cave alone, a dragon who gave her a golden ring, and a fairy and dragon who became friends dramatically. Isn’t it like a fairy tale?

I liked it because I had a corner to lean on, but I feel a bit regretful. After becoming a dragon, I didn’t feel weak feelings like wanting to lean on someone, but I guess I was a little lonely too.

Well, after all, it wouldn’t be nice for a child as young as Nineve to be alone in these mountains. Rather a good thing…

Splash Splash

“Ufufu! Ufufu! help me! Dragon! “Yong!”

I thought I heard the sound of water splashing violently behind me, followed by a desperate voice. Looking back, I saw a silver-haired fairy who had fallen into the water of the underground lake. Nineveh, who was shaking her limbs in a panic as if she couldn’t swim, was sending me a furious call for help.

No, why did Ash get in there?

I hurriedly turn around and enter the underground lake.

The underground lake located inside the cave is quite large, so my entire body can be submerged in it. The deepest part of the underground lake, which is about 10 meters deep, was, of course, a place where a child who could not swim was likely to get into trouble.

“crying!”

Nineveh growled and let out a small shriek. Her figure disappears on the surface of the water.

He tried to rescue Nineveh by grabbing her with his clawed hands, but he had to resort to other means because he might injure her even more.

I put my head into the water and put it under the sinking Nineve in real time. When Nineve, who was sinking naturally, was placed on the bridge of my nose, I raised my head. Nineveh’s weight was strangely so light that the weight of Nineveh sitting on the bridge of my nose was barely felt.

with a splash-!

As I raised my head above the water, I heard Nineve’s gasping breath, which was perched on the bridge of my nose and was holding my face desperately. The guy, who had been gasping for a while, seemed to have calmed down after a while and stretched over my face.

“Nineve, I thought you were going to die. thank god.”

come down

“You can’t play around in the water. What were you doing there?”

“I climbed up the wall to pick up a crystal from the ceiling, but it fell. It hurt a lot to fall on the lake, but Nineveh endured it. Did you do well?”

“Yeah, good job……. No, this isn’t it. Why did you go up there in the first place?”

“The dragon is an idiot. Because I was trying to fix it. Fuh, dragons are stupid.”

Nineve over the bridge of my nose, as if she hadn’t come to her senses even after going through a near-death crisis, repeated, “A dragon is an idiot,” covering her mouth with her hand and giggling.

Somehow, I got a little heated, but being seriously angry with a child is rather more damaging to an adult.

After putting Nineve down on the floor and listening to the story in detail, the circumstances were as follows.

It is said that the reason Nineve entered the cave in the first place was to take the crystal that emits faint light hanging from the ceiling. Nineveh doesn’t know what that crystal is and isn’t particularly interested in, but her palm-sized friends said they would play with her if she brought that magic crystal to Nineveh.

He said he would play with me only if I brought something. How is that a friendship?

The more I listened to it, the more I fell in love with those little friends of Nineveh, but it must not be a matter of hasty judgment without meeting them in person.

I sighed, stretched out, and broke one of the crystals hanging from the ceiling. Unable to withstand the strength of my grip, I fell! While making a sound, among the pieces of the smashed magic crystal, Nineve selects pieces that can be taken back and puts them in her hand.

Nynaeve burst out laughing, holding the piece of glowing magic crystal I gave her in her hand.

“You should go back and brag. A good dragon gave me this. Yong-ah, Nynaeve, can you come and play again tomorrow?”
