lord and his dragon

Four years ago, the Dragon Lord arrived at Harlan Town adjacent to the Borderlands with the appointment of the Golden Feather King. After completely taking over Harlan Town, his power spread to the Borderlands again. In four years, He swayed horizontally and gathered the scattered neutrality of the Borderlands and the power that yearned for order. Then, like pruning useless branches on a tree, from small to large, from thin to thick, he cut off the forces that opposed him in the Borderlands one by one. Until all surrender under his cane.

This dragon lord was decisive and versatile, but after that, he did manage the land of no man—that is, the current Gaiden in an orderly manner. Not only the major trade unions sent people to settle in, but even the people in the marginal forest Non-human races began to tentatively associate with him.

However, his title has nothing to do with his actions. It is just rumored that someone once saw a giant dragon flying over his castle.But the dragon disappeared from the mainland a long time ago, so no one really believed this, but the name of the dragon lord was indeed so popular.

The tavern——and the waiter of the Adventurer’s Guild branch, David, took his two books, a large bag full of body objects representing the identity of the bounty, and another large bag of materials submitted by the mission, and took the The carriage outside drove towards the direction of Harlan Town.

When the Adventurer’s Union settled in Gaiden, they sent a lot of people to expand the site with great fanfare, but this was just an excuse on the surface. Their real purpose was to use these people to control the place, but they were easily seen through by the lord. After finishing the place, he was driven back. He did his part for nothing, and with the permission of the lord, he only left a person who reported to the higher-level union. Now the people who actually manage the union are all in the land of no man. , who later surrendered to the lord.

David is one of them. He was originally a waiter in a tavern in Borderlands, but this is a high-risk occupation. He has seen too many unreasonable deaths of his colleagues, so as soon as the Lord of Dragons offered an olive branch, he would not He rushed forward without hesitation. Now he is in charge of managing the accounts of the Adventurer's Union, and occasionally acts as the front desk, issuing and explaining tasks to the adventurers, just like today.

According to the default rules on the mainland, whenever tasks are completed or entrusted to the adventurer's union, the rewards and commissions will be drawn by the union or an additional [-]% will be paid as a reward for receiving and releasing tasks. A total of [-]% of the bounty and additional employment money. However, the adventurer's union in Gaydon City is different from other places. Half of their income belongs to the lord, and the remaining half belongs to the general assembly.

Although many people in the Adventurer's Union are dissatisfied, thanks to the past reputation of Borderlands, many prisoners with amazing bounties have come here one after another. Sometimes a little more, and they have nothing to protest about.

The same thing happened in other large and small guilds, so the Lord of the Dragon is indeed a very skilled person.

David was sorting out the bills in his mind, when he suddenly felt his body shake slightly, the driver outside shouted: "Sir, we are here."

Hearing this, David got out of the car in a hurry, dragged down two large cloth bags, and then trotted towards the castle not far away.

The scale of this castle seems a little small for someone like the Dragon Lord, but its exterior decoration and overall structure are indeed exquisite enough, and there are intricate and dense carvings and inlays piled up on the door eaves and stone pillars. It doesn't look like much to people, but if you look closely, you will find something shocking. The only thing that David can't understand is that the walls around the castle are covered with creepers. It looked so green, but when the wind blew, the leaves swayed, almost dazzled the eyes.

Don't nobles clean up this plant?Maybe, David thought, some snakes would crawl up the vines and into the window.

While thinking about it, David had already arrived at the gate of the castle. The guards all knew him. Two of them came forward to help him drag the bag away, and the other entered the gate of the castle. After a while, a guard came out. Lead David into it.

Every time he came to this castle, David would sigh the magnificence here.

Dark green carpets covered the entire floor, silver candlesticks hung on the walls, and a huge crystal lighthouse hung from the high dome, not to mention the precious wood and exquisite carvings on the tables and chairs. David guessed that here All kinds of vases, cups and cups must also be full of treasures.

It is worthy of the lord's residence, David thought.

The attendant led David through the hall, and when he was about to go upstairs, he saw the butler walking down from the second floor with a tall and strong orc who was half the height of David. The attendant stood aside respectfully, and David also Had no choice but to give way.

The orc covered his furry paws and bared his teeth. Although there was no smell of blood, he looked as if he was injured. After seeing David and his attendants, he let out a low growl threateningly. Seeing that they didn't respond, he Then he raised his head arrogantly, followed the butler and walked out the door.

After the attendants watched them leave, they took David upstairs again.

David is inexplicable and strange, because Gaiden gradually prospered, and indeed non-human races in the marginal forest began to come out to communicate with them and buy and sell some things, but that was a very small part, and he never Have you seen orcs coming to the castle? Are they going to do business with the lord?or something else?

David didn't know. While thinking, he was brought to the study on the second floor. The attendant politely knocked on the door, and David heard someone inside say, "Come in."

The voice was a little hoarse, with the youthful innocence that had not completely faded away, and it was very pleasant to hear, but David's heart tightened. Immediately afterwards, the attendant pushed open the door and made a gesture of invitation to him.

David swallowed, and walked in quickly.

No matter how many times he came, he was always nervous when facing the Dragon Lord.

David didn't dare to look directly at the other person's face, and only glanced at the lord sitting behind the desk and the guards beside him—although it was strange to have guards in the study, David felt that they could only be guards, and no one would use them. Such a tall man was serving as a servant, and the powerful aura emanating from that man even made David, who had been in the Borderlands, terrified. He thought that man was at least a third-class swordsman, and he could become a great sword by upgrading to three levels. The strong man of the warrior.

"What about the ledger?" asked the lord.

David didn't dare to look any more, and immediately knelt down on the ground with his head down, holding up the ledger in his hand.

The guard behind the lord came over, took away the two ledgers, and handed them to the lord. After David answered several questions asked by the lord in fear, one of the ledgers returned to him, while the other Leave it to the lord to check the items delivered today, and when the check is completed, someone will bring it back to Gaydon and return it to David.

David finished his task, breathed a sigh of relief, and went out with the attendants who reappeared at the door. Before leaving, he heard the lord and his guards discussing about the orcs.

It seems that there are indeed changes again, David thought, after all, just like the land of no man, the marginal forest is also the territory of the lord.

"That orc shouldn't have come at this time." Negrim said with a frown.

He has some differences from four years ago.

He has grown taller, and the curly black hair that originally only reached the side of the neck has covered the back. The rich life has given his face a rosy color, and his cheeks are slightly puffed up, which makes his delicate facial features change. He looked even more beautiful, but the gloomy and quiet temperament on his body still hasn't disappeared, his eyes are still as black as ink, like a deep pool, anyone who looks at him should be vigilant about being sucked into it.

If it weren't for the fact that he really doesn't have the talent to learn magic, he must be very suitable to be a demagogic wizard.

And the person standing next to Negrim, who was mistaken by David as a guard, was Abel.

He is even taller than before, with a full 1.9 meters. Every time he followed Negrim out of the study, he almost wiped the door frame. In terms of strength, Abel's original long silver hair has been cut short. He is also tanned, and his wheat-like complexion makes him look strong and reliable.

The only thing that hasn't changed much is his face. It's just that after the youthful youthfulness has completely faded, he has become more handsome and charming. There are a pair of bright green eyes in the deep eye sockets. He looks at Negrim all the time. , that made him exude a gentle temperament from top to bottom.

Hearing Negrim's words, Abel echoed, "I also don't think he should come."

The stupid and arrogant orc wanted to show his power to Negrim when he came up, but Abel didn't like him until his arm was broken.

Negrim glanced at him and said speechlessly, "I guess what you think and what I think probably don't mean the same thing."

Abel responded noncommittally, and saw tiny beads of sweat oozing from Nigrim's forehead.

The weather was a bit hot, and Negrim was only wearing a thin shirt. It shouldn't have been so hot. It seemed that the orc surprised him. Abel's pupils narrowed dangerously when he realized this. A line, but then he immediately suppressed this emotion and took out a leather ring from his pocket.

He glanced at the beads of sweat on Negrim's forehead again, resisting the desire to lick them off one by one, stretched out his hand to hold Nigrim's curly and lovely hair, and tied them into a high bun. ponytail.

This did make Negrim feel a little more comfortable, but because of the hot weather, Abel only wore a mandarin jacket, exposing his wheat-colored chest muscles and abdominal muscles. As soon as he approached, the heat emitted from his body engulfed Nigrim. Reem was hot and dry.

Negrim flicked his newly tied ponytail, pushed Abel willfully, and complained, "Go away, it's too hot."
