The demon king who is favored by the brave is weak and pitiful and helpless

The red dragon lay on the ground, opened its mouth wide, and kicked its hind legs to move in the main hall.

As the dragon moved forward, all the precious stones and gold coins fell into its mouth.The giant dragon swallowed all these things into its stomach, and hid them in the storage space in the stomach that was specially used by the dragon clan to hide treasures.

In fact, the giant dragon wanted to leave as early as yesterday when the idea of ​​leaving appeared, but because of the treasures that are usually used as a bed, it didn't just leave.

These treasures are given to it by its parents.When he was a little older after breaking his shell for his birthday, his parents asked him what he wanted.

Most dragons would answer that they want lots and lots of shiny treasure, but this one is different.It raised its head and said seriously to its parents: "I want someone who can talk to me and play with me."

This birthday wish made the two confident dragons who were holding the treasure instantly unable to take out the gift they had prepared. They kept holding the treasure and talked to it for a long time to satisfy its wish.

When it grew up and was considered able to live alone, its parents led it to this magnificent palace full of countless treasures.

They told it that as long as it stayed in this palace, there would be a steady stream of people going up the mountain to play with it.And the only thing it has to do is to ensure that the treasures in this palace will not decrease.

And the fact is that this is indeed the case. Since it moved in, there have indeed been brave men who have come up to the mountain to look for him from time to time.Although some brave men look fierce and have a bad attitude, they still have mouths that can speak.

——Because of this, it has always felt that its parents are the wisest dragons in the world.

It really wants to go down the mountain, but while thinking about going down the mountain, it is also a little worried about life after going down the mountain.And it packs these treasures just to add a protection to itself.

A guarantee that even after it returns to the mountain, someone will come to play with it.

The dragon swallowed the last sapphire, stood up slowly, and looked around.After making sure that there were no more lost treasures on the floor of the main hall, it closed its eyes and began to recite complex formulas in the somewhat obscure dragon language.

When the last sound fell, a burst of thick red mist appeared, and the huge figure inside also began to shrink gradually.

The sound of heels hitting the ground echoed in the palace, and a boy with short red hair came out of the red mist.

He has a delicate appearance and fair skin.If it weren't for the pair of golden vertical pupils that don't look like humans, he would look like a human boy of noble origin.

The red-haired boy walked to the wall, stood on tiptoes and tried to reach the long sword hanging on the wall.However, the height that is too short for the dragon is too high for the current human body.

The red-haired boy muttered dissatisfiedly, and took a few steps back.A pair of red wings with scales grew out of the shoulder blades, and after only a few flaps, it took the boy into flight.

The young man flew to the edge of the long sword, and watched as he easily removed the long sword from the wall with his too slender hands.He opened his mouth wide and swallowed the sword in one go.

Quickly, according to the movement, the boy put away all the weapons hanging in the room.Seeing that the room full of things was empty, the boy nodded in satisfaction, and flapped his wings to go to other rooms to see if there was anything left behind.

"Excuse me, is there a dragon?"

The door was knocked, and a low male voice came from outside the door.

Should be a hero again.

The boy who was checking the last room heard the voice of the brave man, flew to the door and landed on the ground.He folded his wings, and then gently pushed the door open.

The brave man outside the door had brilliant blond hair, and his blue eyes seemed to hide the deep sea.

The young man apologized: "Sorry, there are no dragons here. The dragon inside has gone home, so you don't have to come here anymore."

"Ah, yes, thank you." The brave man thanked and asked again: "Can I ask who you are? I haven't seen you before when I came here."

The young man began to lie without blinking: "I am the new subordinate of the dragon here. Maybe I hadn't become the subordinate of the dragon when you came here before."

"...Really." The brave man seemed to be in disbelief.

The boy could clearly see his own reflection in the other person's eyes: "Yes, that's it. There are no dragons here, and I am going to go down the mountain to ask for a living. There will be no more monsters here, so you don't have to waste time in the future." .”

The brave man was silent for a while, as if he had finally figured it out: "So that's how it is."

The brave man laughed twice, with relief on his face.

He must have finally understood what he said.The boy thought a little uncertainly.

The brave man asked: "So, may I take the liberty to ask you a question. What are you going to do after you go down the mountain?"

"I don't know too well, just... go down the mountain first, and then take a look around."

He had lived in this castle on the hill all the long past.The brave men who came and went called him "Dragon", even if occasionally a courageous bard passed by, and the unclear singing was carried to his ears by the wind, he could only hear something similar to "The Brave Killing Dragon". Dragon" story.

He was dubbed the "Dragon", so that when he wanted to get rid of this identity, he really didn't know what kind of person he could become.

The boy said uncertainly: "You should always be able to find something to do."

The brave man saw the confusion of the young man: "Why don't you come to our village and try to be the devil king?"

"There is no devil king in our village. Every time I have to climb over a mountain to find the devil king in the next village to practice. If you can come, it will really help me a lot."

"That's not the same as now." The boy muttered vaguely.

"It's different." The young man was startled, and then he heard the brave man continue: "Look, you look so human, sometimes I can take you to the village when I have free time."

The young man was a little moved: "Really?"

"Of course," said the brave man, "if you behave well, I can still take you to the town or the city."

"Okay, I will." The boy's eyes sparkled: "Then it's settled, you want to take me out to play. But it's fine in the city, towns and villages are enough."

"Of course, if you break the contract, I will get angry and beat you up." Afraid that the brave man on the other side would think he was talkative, the young man thought about it, and added a threat at the end.

The brave man swore: "Well, I won't lie to you."

"By the way, I don't know your name yet. My devil, what's your name?"

"David, my name is David. And you, what's your name?"

"My name is Warrell."
