We Live in Dragon’s Peak

I could do nothing with fear. [M]

Thoughts were paralyzed by the sudden crisis, and all they could do was round their frightened bodies and take their gaze off the horrible wolf herd.

A painful sound of something hitting something scratches my ear and I tremble every time it sounds.

But the wolves are not attacked by me.

So I looked out from the gap in my arm with my head in my arms to see what was going on in my dread.

"Bullshit. Bullshit."

Ares was there.

Ares is holding both hands against the wolf.

And the wolf was held back by something invisible at the tip of his hands, and he could not wave down his sharp fangs or nails at me.

A wolf comes in.

I strengthens my body.

But the wolf was still bouncing and roaring when he hit something he couldn't see.

A bunch of wolves attacked me, but everything was blocked and bounced at the tip of Ares' hands.

"No, I'm not frightened."

Ares looked at me and smiled gently.

But I saw that Ares smile and I felt sorry for her.

I was relaxed.

The will was sweet.

I was coming to an outdoor place. [M]

I was being made to truly realize that I was stepping into a dangerous world where even the adventurers of great arms could not come.

I shouldn't have been distracted for a moment.

Yet it was an unexpected treat and I caught my guard on a quiet forest night.

How stupid I am. [M]

As soon as we walked into the woods, someone was following us.

Even though it was temporarily scattered with a spatial leap, it was in the assumption that the opponent would follow it without giving up.

And yet I fell asleep without even being alert.

It could be this wolf herd that's been tracking me from the start.

Maybe he couldn't capture the tracker's direction accurately because he was being chased from various angles in multiple.

And it didn't taste good to have stung a rabbit.

I buried my guts and non-eating parts on the ground, but the smell of blood led me to the wolves.

Even so, we should have stayed away from the campsite.

"I'm sorry."

I apologized to Ares. And I appreciate it.

If Ares hadn't been here, I'd be feeding off this wolf, wouldn't I?

Ares is a spirit living in a spirit tree, so she followed me when I told her I was traveling alone.

"I'm not frightened. I'll protect you."

Ares is smiling gently at me with her hands against the wolves.

But at the end of both hands, the wolves kept hitting each other repeatedly toward something they still couldn't see, making blunt noises and getting bounced off.

"Yeah. Thanks for protecting me."

I get back on my feet. [M]

Maybe it was a loose idea to pick up Mistral, or to travel alone on Dragon Peak, or not get to the ground.

Traveling alone means you have to protect yourself all the time. There's no one to rely on.

That's the same whether it's Dragon Peak or Armored Domestic, right?

This time I picked up my life thanks to Ares.

If it's true, it wouldn't have been strange if my life had ended here.

"I'm sorry. But it's okay now. I won't be alarmed anymore."

I said, I put my hands forward like Ares did, and I worked out my dragon temper.

Look at me, Ares snorts, yeah.

"Hang in there, hang in there"

And Ares became a grain of light and melted into the darkness of the night forest and disappeared.

Something between us and the wolf disappears at the same time, and a pack of wolves approaches me at once.

"I can't let you guys get stuck."

I turn dragon qi into surgery and release it. [M]

A green, visualized gust of wind radiates from the tip of both hands, sweeping the looming wolves at once.

I capture a big wolf barking behind the blown wolves with dragon-hearted eyes.

Put your hands to the big wolf.

Thinly bind the dragon qi.

embodied into a single thin arrow and flew.

The arrow pierces the wolf in an instant.

Have a small explosion.

Several of the wolves around him were flown by the blast.

If you follow me any further, I will not forgive you.

I raised dragon air all over my body and stared at the wolf herd with a sharp glance of temper.

In an instant, the wolves stop moving.

"I have to pull it off, I'll turn it into a piece of flesh in an instant, like the wolf I am now."

Words don't make sense, but I think I've conveyed my power.

Werewolves retreating slightly with a twist. And when the first one wrapped his tail around him and fled, from there all the wolves turned their backs on me and fled to us and into the darkness of the deep woods.

I was temporarily alert and distracted even when I lost sight of the wolves, but once I made sure that the signs of the wolves had completely disappeared, I calmed my mind.

I managed to get through the crisis with Ares' help.

"Thank you."

I touched the wooden knife of the spirit tree and thanked Ares, who I can't see now.

Then I felt signs of flutter and tenderness in my ear.

Come on, let's get back on our minds and act.

It'll still be after midnight, but we'd better move.

I'm sure the smell of blood from the rash hasn't disappeared. Besides, it's killing these wolves and spreading the smell of blood even further.

I can't stay long in a place that might attract even more troublesome demons and warcraft.

When I quickly packed my bags, I followed the rocky camp.

If you let Dragon Qi live in your eyes, you can ensure your sight even in the back of the woods that are out of light.

I moved early while I was on guard.

First, return to the path that leads to Dragon Peak and move on.

The dark forest path made me feel like I was reaffirming my natural fears.

I still wonder if solo traveling is something that travelers and adventurers are used to doing.

'Cause nobody depends on you.

If you're traveling all day, for days, you can't fail to be vigilant.

If you're with someone, you can take turns watching them when you sleep. But if you're alone, you'll be completely defenseless when you're asleep.

Where do you put rest in your mind and body during your journey and how do you sleep with vigilance? It made me sad that I had a complete lack of knowledge and experience.

Mistral and Sleighsta must have been aware of the sweetness of my weaknesses and thoughts.

But even with caution, I didn't do anything to make you think.

I'm sure that's because I possessed a spiritual tree superior spirit named Ares, who knew I was protected.

I didn't even realize that.

What a shallow perception and readiness.

My impudence made me annoyed. [M]

"Everyone is stuffed. So you can practice."

Soon Ares showed up and graciously held my hand.

"The truth is, if I fail, I can't do it in one shot."

"That's not true. Sometimes even Mistrals fill up. But I haven't been able to support you yet."

"Yeah. Right. Ares, thank you for your support. One day, I'll be in a position to support you."

"Yeah. Shit."

Ares was looking up at me with a full smile.

I can't be perfect from the start. Until I can travel in public, which is pitiful, I hear Ares needs your help, too.

I'm sure the Mistrals, who admitted to my lone journey, know that.

I was wrong that I was the only one who could do it alone.

It is well understood that the Mistrals will be Ares' journey from the beginning.

Then I'm sorry, but let's spoil it now.

It doesn't make sense to be dead.

Relying on someone first is good, so steadily striving for Dragon Peak is more important than anything else.

I regained my temper and proceeded through the night forest with renewed readiness.

I kept walking all night without rest.

I thought I needed a break and some sleep, but last night's events kept me excited, and he seemed restless, so I switched to an inexorable degree of gait and walked through.

But perimeter vigilance alternated with Ares, so I arrived in the morning without getting so exhausted.

The depressed forest is the same.

The carved path remains the same.

But now in front of me was a village that built an outer wall with countless piles of marutai.

I got there.

The first Dragon Nation village, originally scheduled to arrive around lunch today.

Mistral said so. A day and a half from the western fort, there's a village full of dragon merchants.

People gathered here from all over Dragon Peak to join the merchants on their way to the king's capital of the kingdom of Armuad.

It is the easternmost village for the Dragon Nation and the first Dragon Nation village for the Dragon Nation.

There was no gate in the village that separated the outside from the inside.

There are piles of Round Tai lined up along the outer edge of the village, but there are no obstacles that separate the roads.

I entered the village without hesitation. [M]

I wonder if the dragon people would be surprised if people came early in the morning.

I wonder what kind of people live there.

I wonder if you'll welcome me. I might be treated in an evil way.

Entering the village with anticipation and anxiety, I was to see a large number of dragon tribes there.

That said, it doesn't look like a human race.

I also thought when Niemia and I went to Mr. Anemone's village before, you can't tell me from the people.

I just realized on my own that these people were Dragon people because they were in a Dragon people village.

As many carriages lined the side of the road as in the village, with a tenacious man, an active woman, busily moving around.

Oh, this is the Spring Merchant Corps.

In spring, the first dragon merchants of the year arrived in the king's capital of the kingdom of Armuad.

I guess the people who are carrying their luggage in the carriage at the end of my gaze are exactly those of the merchant corps.

It looks the same as a human race, and the landscape of putting luggage on a carriage is no different than a human merchant.

Even if you see this in the Wang Dynasty, you don't know it's definitely a Dragon Nation merchant.

As I saw the sight in front of me, a man noticed me.

"Surprised. How could a human child be here?"

In the voice of a man, the other dragon tribes around him notice me at the same time.

"Good morning,"

I gathered the gaze of everyone I was working on, and I made my body tense at the entrance to the village.
