We Live in Dragon’s Peak

"Yes, a question! Are you saying that Mr. Alex's hometown is the Kalmar Empire? Was Mr. Jewel the god general there?

Here, let's sort it out a little bit.

Aside from me, people who are not familiar with the circumstances of the Divine Nation are about to be left out of the subject.

My question was answered by Mr. Wender, a friend of Mr. Alex's.

"No, it's not. The country ruled by our emperor is the Belisarius Empire. It is a sacred country, built by the Emperor in a generation. And Lord Jewel was serving the Kalmar Empire, a small country west of the Bersalia Empire."

Geographically, it seems that the Belisarius Empire has vast areas of dominion in the far south of Dragon Peak and the Kingdom of Armuad, as well as the Kingdom of Yortenitos.

And it is the empire of Karmar that has territory all the way south of the Heavenly Mountains, which is dimensioning the demonic ruling areas on the west side, Ms. Wender says.

"The empire of Kalmar is a small country, but it was protected by Kakane and has long been antagonistic with the Belisarius Empire"

"But Mr. Jewel is already..."

The Belisarius Empire had the ambition to stretch the prints west. It was Mr. Jewel, who was said to be an undefeated god general, who stood before that ambition.

But Mr. Jewel was deprived of his position by betrayal and chased after his country.

Then what happened to the Kalmar Empire...

"Still no news of the fall of the Kalmar Empire"

Listen to Mr. Wender and look back at Mr. Fufu and Mr. Jewel.

Mr. Jewel was listening, without changing his expression in any way.

By killing emotions, I endure the memories of a hard past. That's a sign.

"By the way, Mr. Wender is very familiar with information inside and outside the country, isn't he?

Mr. Alex's old friend means Mr. Wender lives on the border, too, right?

For that matter, it seems familiar with the circumstances outside the country.

Then Luvent, resurrected from his stun, began to brag with his chest stretched so that it was still about him.

"This is why people... Do you mind, Master Wender is a Thousand-eyed Martial Arts God, with the blessing of the Emperor? If it were you, you would always sit on the rear left side of the emperor and rarely be seen even with the god tribe, would you? Such a person bothered to take us to such a border. Thank you."

"Yeah!?

Surprise me.

But it was the demons who reacted more than I did.

"Heh, a thousand eyed martial arts gods. Ah. A martial arts god in the west, isn't he?

Luilara smiles like usual. But I'm obviously upset.

Apparently, I overreacted to the word "martial arts".

"So, what's martial arts? You're not like the god general?

Mr. Wender answered my question once again.

While putting corrections into the story of Luvent.

"If I've given you misunderstandings and vigilance, let's apologize. To be precise, I am a former martial arts god. For the record, I took the time to leave the Emperor's side."

Mr. Wender says so, but tensions were beginning to arise on non-demonic people, especially people.

To date, there has been little interaction with the kingdom of the divine family and those living there. In other words, only some people, such as me and the Listeers, became acquainted with Mr. Alex and Luvent in the matter of the Resurrection of the Holy Sword.

In general, yeah, if it's more specific, almost all of the people in the human race are strongly aware of demons and divine tribes as "horrible races that do themselves harm".

In fact, in demonic and divine nations, people are treated badly as slaves.

Still, lately, under my influence, I have developed a very friendly relationship with the demons of a country ruled by a giant demon king.

So even if there are advanced demons and demon kings on this occasion, there is no one to set themselves up with hostility, even if they are nervous.

However, there is no good relationship between the Divine and Heavenly tribes.

There, the nearest side of the emperor who rules the empire of the divine family, and if someone comes along who excels in martial arts, then I'm nervous about it, not just the arm-written adventurers and soldiers, but even me.

I mean, I'm a friend of Mr. Alex's, but what's the real purpose of coming to the Fei Long hunt?

I said ex-woo gods and myself, but you have no proof to back it up.

Besides, even if you were really down from your martial arts status now, it's a temporary procedure and you might be reinstated as soon as you get back.

From the standpoint of vigilance, you look around at the country of the people because they have become ordinary people and later use it as information for aggression, right?

Then, feeling the vigilance of me and the people, Mr. Wender raised his hands as troubled.

"Really, I'm sorry I misled you. I just want you to believe me. My purpose is not here."

"And even if they say so?

Louis Lara, half-heartedly, or blatantly, looked into suspicion.

"Even for me, I'd like to hear Mr. Wender's sincerity. 'Cause I don't like it when the next disturbance starts because of people who come together at my request."

I'm sorry for Mr. Alex, but depending on Mr. Wender's story, I have to force him to leave, even if he does.

You read my vigilance and my readiness for the future, and Mr. Wender told me the truth about his visit to the land with Alex and the others in trouble.

"In the first place, I have accompanied Alex for his purposes, not that. One way or another, I just took a ride to Lord Jewel's purpose."

"Mr. Jewel's purpose?

Mr. Jewel was chased after his country for betrayal. And still, assassins are after me. In the meantime, you met Mr. Alex on the run, and this is how you came to the hunting ground of the Fei Long with Master Larsa.

I know Mr. Jewel's past and circumstances because I just heard them.

But you hadn't heard the purpose in the first place.

Everyone's gaze has now shifted to Mr. Jewel.

"One of my aims is to get the gracious Lazar safely to his hometown. I would have traveled to Dragon Peak if I had, and taken you home to a place you knew."

Say, Mr. Jewel sees Lady Larsa.

The Larsa smiled bitterly as she was in trouble again.

I mean, Lady Larsa had a blame on Dragon Peak for the alter thing, and you couldn't honestly go home to everyone.

"It was Alex who gave me advice on what to do."

Just now, I was gathering a lot of collaborators.

I'm sure I can solve the problem, Alex introduced me.

"So I stopped by to deliver Lady Larsa."

"Stopped by, which means you have a destination to head to again, right?

Yes, and nodding, Mr. Jewel.

"I taught Lady Larsa how revenge is a vain thing. But I must take the sword again, not revenge, but to stop my former friends and men."

And then Mr. Jewel sees the Dragons and the Dragons in a meaningful way, plus the two Demon Kings and the Demons, and finally, he turns his gaze back on me.

"We can no longer stop the ambitions of the Belisarius Empire and its emperors alone. Still, to fight the despair that awaits, I want to head west. To the land, the temple city, where people believe."

Mr. Jewel's destination was an area ruled by the people, far west of here.

Temple religion, its sanctuary and a temple city ruled by the Witch King.

Neither have we ever crossed the Heavenly Mountains to the west.

But Mr. Jewel says he really needs to head out to resist the ambitions of the Divine Clan.

And Mr. Wender also spoke with strong determination.

"I couldn't agree with the Emperor this time either. So I begged..."

Mr. Wender, who could not stop the emperor, returned to his homeland with his disappointment in his chest.

So, listening to Mr. Alex, who came into contact with many people and cultures in his homeland, Ms. Wender also became interested in other countries and races that she only recognized as information.

"Though he was treated as a martial arts god on the side of the emperor and has waved his sword on many battlefields. I was ashamed to have lost sight of the fact that the Divine, the Heavenly, and those other than my own people lived there and lived there."

And finally, Ms. Wender told me with embarrassment that the ambition of the emperor had led me to turn my thoughts around about those who would be sacrificed.

"There can be no more casualties. And no one can stop the ambitions that have begun to move anymore, but they can stop future sacrifices. That's why I want to go west."

Why, west?

Someone leaked a bump.

Then Mr. Wender hardened his expression and taught me the ambitions of the Belisarius Empire.

"The Emperor intends to conquer the Kalmar Empire and go further west. And we are ready to destroy the nations of the people and confront the demons."

"Become!?

And many of them were cut off from it.

The emperor of the Belisarius Empire is ultimately willing to destroy the demonic kingdom as well. To this end, we are trying to extend our forces west and enhance our national power.

"Maybe this area is dangerous too!?

From now on, when it comes to defeating the demon king, I know exactly what the crisis is.

But Mr. Wender dispelled my worries.

"Is there a deeper forest to the south than here? So far, the Emperor has no intention of dealing with the dragon tribe of the ancient species living there."

Even for the Belisarius Empire, the southern part of the lake, which extends south of the dragon forest, seems to be a periphery across the border. So Ms. Wender told me that we have no idea how to go north from the border until we contend with the dragon tribe of an ancient species stronger and scarier than ourselves.

I mean, by Old Sleighsta, this area was protected from the invasion of the Divine Clan, right?

Thanks, Grandpa!

"So, Mr. Jewel and Mr. Wender want to head west from here, right?

I see, I see the story.

I mean, if you sell me a favor here, I might benefit the Dragons and the Dragons over Dragon Peak. And by pretending to be the Demon King, you two will be safe even after entering the demonic kingdom. Is that so?

So, Mr. Jewel just saw dragons, dragons, demons, and demon kings who seem distant and uninteresting.

"I don't know, I have a dangerous feeling!

Shit, I shouldn't have left you alone too much!

I see, and listening to Mr. Jewel and Mr. Wender and checking his surroundings, the problem was just about to break out right now.

"Look, just do it. If you refuse, you won't forgive them, will you?

"Damn. Why do I have to be used until I come to such an unknown border land!

"Come on, come on, Duke of Cats. Wonderful things to fulfill His Majesty's request, please?

The blonde transverse-haired Grand Demon clan is grabbing the root, is it, or Duke Astel? And beside Astel, the demon king of the giant, laughing and urging.

"Ernea, stop it!

Like me, Mistral sees the crisis and rushes out.

"Hey, hey, wait. Ahhhhhh!

But my screams are vain...

The next moment.

In the hunting grounds of the Fei Long, a huge castle fortress appeared neglected as far as it could see.

"Ahhhhhh..."
