"Blue Dragon. Are you going too?

“Huh?”

Goya snorts roughly in response to Silas's question as she passes by.

“Why? Are you nervous? ”

"What a surprise!

Seeing Silas grumbling with his fur up and down, he smiles.

“If you want to see it, pray to heaven. This is another great blue dragon in the sky. ”

…… Why do you keep acting like that?

“Really? I can give you a wish. ”

"Meaah, don't talk.

The Blue Dragon was also the guardian of the thaw for many years.

However, it is not the Guardian God now, but the Spirit of Judas. He chose not to fall by the side of the contractor but to leave the country together.

It's surprising though. I thought you were gonna break the contract because it was annoying.

After a series of incidents, Judas offered Gaya to break the contract.

In the first place, it was a contract to save the Blue Dragon, so there was no reason for him to keep the contract until he left the thaw and returned to the Empire.

However, he turned down everyone's expectation that he would want to be left in the thaw and simply declined the offer.

‘I like it now. I've been so thirsty. ’

Among other things, blue dragons have not met suitable contractors for hundreds of years.

The energy of the blue dragon, weakened by the failure of the contract, was now revived like meat that had just met water.

‘If you are the owner, you know, but you are a soul companion to the Spirit. Now if you come and break the contract, I think you'll be more miserable than the one who got divorced by your spouse. ’

Nevertheless, he had to go with the greatest emphasis on his will.

‘But if you want the owner to do it, do it. ’

After hearing from the blue-eyed blue dragon, Judas withdrew from breaking the contract.

It will last for a very long time if we think of the age of Baek Ho and the life of Lan, the fairy faction. Even after Judas, a human, enjoys this life as commanded, Lan and Baek Ho remain the guardians of the deformation unchanged.

Judas decided to respect the choice he made to keep the contract.

“Oh, of course I'm lazy, but it's true. ”

‘Did you admit it yourself?! ’

In spite of the panic of the watchers, I had to go to Arangot and die.

“I didn't want to stay in this country until I broke my contract with the owner. Oh, my God. The newborn shaman and the drummer are still awake, so you'll need to take good care of them. ”

Rinse. I know you don't have to say that.

Shortly after birth, the young bastards and the principal were not yet immature in dealing with power. Until they are able to handle their power properly, the blessing is still so weak that it is hard to protect one body.

Baek Ho Shila was grumpy and willing to take care of the other gods.

“I'll wait.”

Ran, who held Baek Ho in his arms, smiled and said.

“I want to go, but I can't go. Judas, do you really have to come see me again? ”

In fact, after this pilgrimage, Judas, the successor to the imperial monarchy, has little chance of leaving the country.

The weight he will carry in the future is the life of all who live throughout the great empire.

Therefore, even if you walk outside the temple, you will not be able to visit as comfortably as you are now.

Judas stroked Lan's head without even noticing it.

As the warm warmth shook his head, Ran looked at him with bitter young eyes.

“I promise.”

“ ……! ”

At this moment, Lan's expression became clear.

“I'll come see you again. Until then, I'm trying to be healthy. Lana."

“Yes!"

Ran stretched out his arms and hugged him. Tear drops fell on the jawline without knowing if it was a relief or a pity that this breakup was not over.

“Goodbye."

Goodbye.

Finally, guests from Lubarzan left to defrost the ship of the Borat Fairy and the White Tiger.

“By the way, Sire. Isn't this the way you came? ”

Judas' group, who had been out of thaw for days on horseback, was entering a strange path.

Baikal, who was following without a word, questioned me since he found all kinds of signs stretching down the street.

“Lawless zone. ”

Painted with red paint on a large sign, the letters were the common language of the Lubarzan Empire.

It was full of other signs to guide gambling or entertainment.

Edan, who had a brief glance at the nails that popped out on a roughly broken wooden plank, briefly organized them.

“This is an area not affected by national law. ”

Just in time, a swarm of crows roared over their heads and passed by. I felt like I was out of the thaw, and there was a crisp atmosphere.

Baikal scratches his head and scratches around.

“Isn't this the wrong path? ”

Hey, hey, hey. What the hell are you looking at me for?

Uni, who was guiding the way by creating a subtle green wind path, swells the ball.

However, her frustrated voice did not reach Baikal.

“No, you're right. ”

Instead, Edan answered decisively.

“The current location is the illegal zone in the north of the continent. This is the territory of Midgard. ”

After hearing the answer, Baikal's complexion became blurry.

“Yes? Midgard? ”

“Yes. I came through the southern desert when I came, but this time I intend to go a little further north. ”

“Am I really going north? ”

“It's already north. ”

After hearing Judas and Edan pretend to be breathing right, Baikal bows his head.

“Beep?”

Only the fabulous little Wyvern grabbed his wings in his arms.

Baikal pulls the frustrating fluby out of the lobe and puts it on his shoulder.

With a long tail, he wrapped his opposite shoulder and enjoyed the flute grabbing his wings in a well-balanced manner.

“Sire, I know it's too late, but let me tell you something. ”

“Huh?”

“The north of the continent is not a place for you to walk. ”

It was a very serious tone, unlike the usual blabbering baikal.

Judas is far away. As soon as he hears the story, Baikal opens his mouth again in a loud voice.

“So, the culture here is imaginatively dirty…… messy…… Ah. ”

He groaned, unable to find in his brain the luxurious words to describe it to the Crown Prince.

Then Edan kicked his tongue small and went to aid.

“Taking over the north of the continent, Midgard is an incredibly free country by imperial standards. ”

“Hey, it's not just liberty. Maybe you really don't have the law. ”

Midgard country of the North.

Another expression that defines this country is called the 'unlawful state’ and the 'machinery bureau’.

Both names reveal peculiarities that are hard to see in other countries, and there is no such thing as a law to follow and uphold in Midgard, as the expression "lawless nation."

It's a pharmaceutical ceremony!

In Midgard, the powerful rule the weak. There was not even the notion of a king.

It is not a power structure based on lineage, but an infinite competitor for those with stronger power to rise to the top.

He who has the strongest power is called the operator, Sichuan, and he only serves with courage.

“I know it is. ”

Judas knew about Midgard and deliberately chose to travel north.

After all, it was a country that could no longer be associated with the empire that existed within a continent. Unlike thawing alliances and maintaining friendly relations, Midgard was not so good with the Empire.

Midgard has waged countless wars like a country that worships power. In its history, the Lubarzan Empire, which was regarded as the strongest in conquest, did not fall in love with it. Then the age of war came to a halt and peace continued across the continent, and recently we were just as far away as cows and chickens.

There were too many barriers between them to interact and get to know each other because they had too many different cultures and systems.

"It might be a lot more shocking than you've seen in the book. ’

Baikal swallowed that worry inside. Since he had never been to the north of the continent, he did not know the details.

However, since I was a child, I was able to guess roughly because I had been around and encountered several levels of culture.

Perhaps the culture of Midgard, an outlawed nation, is made up of a form of inferiority that the ruling Lubarzans, who grew up in greenhouses, had never imagined.

Sage asked his brother with naive eyes, not even worried about Baikal.

“Brother, how can a country remain without law? ”

“What do you think? ”

“…… I can't really imagine. We can't punish criminals, we can't punish those who are affected. There are no standards, so even the smallest things may have to move in line with where they are. Completely chaotic. ”

Of course, as Prince of the Lubarzan Empire, it was a good idea.

Sage grew up in the shadow of her mother. Though dark in the world waters, she has studied the knowledge she needs to learn as a ruler. Judas nods his head at Sage, who speaks precisely for the ruler.

“You think so. ”

“Yes. I'm not convinced that a system like that doesn't collapse and has a long history. ”

Despite the relentless replacement between the ruling and the dominant, Midgard's history was the longest of all the countries on the continent.

“There's probably an implicit rule between them. ”

“But would that do it? Eventually there will be conflict and confusion. ”

“Maybe the conflict and confusion itself is the law for them. ”

Sage stopped answering unexpectedly.

‘Fight to win, survive the chaos. That's how the winner takes everything. ’

It was still not a convincing structure, but to some extent it seemed to know.

The green spirit flew captive to Judas while Sage was trapped.

"You know, there's a big marketplace ahead.

"Marketplace? It'll be fun!

Tony, who was lying side by side on Judas' head, rose and reacted first.

Lift to the end, you dog. This is not what you think it is.

"Argh? If this is not the market, what is it?

Marketplace for selling people.

“…… slavery. ”

Judas, who listened to the spirits' conversations, revealed his identity without difficulty. His sudden remarks amaze me.

“Yes?”

“You have a slave shop in front of you. ”

Cristina stares carefully at the sparkling Wind Spirit in clear green.

“There's no reason to keep slaves away because the strong take weakness. ”

In Midgard, a lawless state, it was not illegal, of course, to buy or sell slaves.

Even if he was the son of a slave, he had a striking scheme to jump to higher status if he had more power than his master.

Midgard was also autonomous in religion.

It was different from Lubarzan, who respected the inherent personality of the human person by using divinity as a religion and had a minimum legal framework.

In the Lubarzan Empire, no matter how subordinate you are, the ruling class should exploit you and take your life.

The differences that came right here made the group uncomfortable, but the guests from other countries had neither the authority nor the reason to be involved in Midgard's slave trade.
