"Huh??? A Dragon? What are saying lowly wyvern?!" Faunia asked with a frown on her face. She resembled a little brat who has a tantrum.
On the other hand, Ragas could only force out a smile and step back in astonishnt. Unlike Pedrowho was kind and understanding when they first t, Faunia was arrogant and a tad bit hot-headed, which was the typical characteristic of soone from the Dragon-kin.
Thus, out of fear, Ragas imdiately bowed down towards Faunia and said, "F-Forgive this lowly wyvern, oh great ancestor! I was disrespectful at your presence due to shock I hope that you could spare this lowly wyvern's life!"
Faunia simply sighed in response as she grabbed Pedro by his head and took him from Ragas. Then, she raised Pedrojust enough to keep him in a standing position despite being unconscious.
In a blink of an eye, Faunia releases his grip from Pedro's headconsequently making Pedro fall towards her, as she follows up with a punch aid towards Pedro's stomach.
"Wake up, weak ass human!" She grumbled.
Faunia's punch landed on Pedro's stomach that was strong enough to make the wind blew past everyone else. Consequently, Pedro coughed out blood as he sohow got back to his senses. Ragas and Clara could not help but be worried towards Pedro. That said, they did not dare to even move a muscle out of fear towards Faunia.
As for Duke Ersi and the Kingdom Soldiers, if Clara and Ragas would not dare act against Faunia, they would not even dare go against the little girl by themselves since Clara and Ragas were several leagues above them in terms of strength. They could only watch from behind and see what happens to Pedro.
At this mont, Pedro was coughing frantically, resembling soone who got rescued after almost drowning in the water. On the other hand, Faunia glared towards Ragas and asked, "What matters do you have with this weak ass human?"
"I I am" Ragas stuttered out of fear in response. However, before he could finish his words, Pedro interjected by raising his handsseemingly wanting to tell Faunia to stop.
"He's He's with us!" Pedro said whilst coughing out several tis.
Ragas simply nodded in response that consequently made Faunia talk with Pedro through their minds.
'What is this wyvern saying? A servant? Since when were you able to ta a wyvern, human?' Faunia asked casually deep inside.
Pedro simply forced out a smile in response and said, 'I did not ta him He seed to have noticed the presence of a Dragon's Blood inside my body. So, he decided to follow after eting him in the Kingdom's Auction Den. Rest assured, they are not here to hurt !'
'If that's the case' Faunia sighed out of relief. But in the next second, her face wore a frown once again as she stared towards Pedro while saying deep inside, 'What are you doing, acting like you are still injured? You only got shocked by the sudden transfer of whatever Senior D gave to you! Other than losing your consciousness, there's nothing else that needed to be concerned about! So... Hurry up and get us out of this situation! I don't like getting stared at! Else You want to take care of these pests'
Pedro could only scratch the back of his head and said deep inside, 'Fine! Fine! I know what to do! Just sit back and relax! You're still in recovery after all! It would be a lot more troubleso if Senior Fate and Senior Death return just because of you!'
Faunia could only smile in response and said telepathically, 'Don't say that, human! It would be a disaster if that happens!'
Pedro could not help but to force out a smile and simply agree to what Faunia said. At this mont, Pedro was able to stand casually as if nothing had happened. Then, he used his left arm to wipe the blood on his mouth and said, "Anyway I am alright! It just happened that I got an extre headache for so reason! Fortunately, I only so punch to wake up So, you guys don't need to worry about !"
Then, Pedro glanced at Faunia and said, "This little girl is Faunia! She is like our fleet's little sister! Unfortunately, she got injured after fighting so incredibly strong monsters! Thus, the two n earlierwhich were our seniors, took action by themselves and helped in the recovery of Faunia. They must have a special task That's probably why they needed to drop Faunia to as soon as possible!"
Faunia simply nodded in agreent as Pedro glanced towards Duke Ersi and said, "That said I hope that you can simply ignore what had just happened, and I would like to proceed to discuss sothing with youDuke Ersi, regarding the weapon that I was able to make!"
At this mont, Duke Ersi was still trying to process everything that happened. But because of Pedro ntioning his na, he could only shake his head to calm himself and said, "O-Of course! It would be a great help to the Kingdom if we can use such weapon!"
"Then, I would be troubling youDuke Ersi, to spare a bit more of your ti! Please lead the way to a room, where we can talk privately!" Pedro said as another wave of monsters started to charge towards them after Old D and Fate left.
"O-Of course, Sir Aron!" Duke Ersi forced out a smile in response as his attention was unconsciously averted towards the Kingdom Soldierswho just seemingly woke up and were just a hundred ters away from the new wave of monsters.
On the other hand, Pedro understood Duke Ersi as if he had read his mind. So, Pedro simply clapped his hands and said, "Aron says Stay hot!"
In the next second, the 'Aron Burner' activated and the monsters who enter its range get burned into ashes. With nothing to hold Duke Ersi back from leaving that area, Pedro can't help but to smirk and say, "Shall we go now?"
Duke Ersi could only nod in response as he and two more Kingdom Soldiers with him lead the way to a nearby building that was being used by the military as a command center for the northern gate's troops. Together with Fauniawho was seating beside Pedro and was 'happily' eating food, Clarawho stood on Pedro's right, and Ragaswho stood on Pedro's left, Pedro had a conversation with Duke Ersi about the 'Aron Burner'.
Of course Their eting went as planned by Pedro. Duke Ersi stated his desire to obtain a few more of the 'Aron Burner'. However, Pedro did not agree imdiately to Duke Ersi after receiving so offers worth hundreds of gold coins.
It was not because Pedro wanted to gain more gold coins and he simply changes his mind to put the 'Aron Burner' into the auction, but It was because he wanted to use this chance to take advantage of Duke Ersi's connections and obtain as many magic crystals as he can. Whether it would co from the Tarala Kingdom or other strongholds, Pedro could not care less.
And considering the good relationship Pedro was able to build with Duke Ersi and Duke Albert, he simply settled with 200 Gold coins paired with 20 Magic Crystalswhich would cost around 2 Gold Coins each, as paynt for a single 'Aron Burner'.
With the additional request from Pedro to Duke Ersiregarding the patent of his creation, Duke Ersi had personally agreed to Pedro's conditions and placed three additional orders of 'Aron Burner' other than the one currently operating near them.
Unfortunately, Duke Ersi would need to leave and go back to the main command center of the Kingdom's Military to prepare the Paynt that Pedro required. That said, out of goodwill, Pedro kept the first 'Aron Burner' active. This way, Pedro would look, not only like a weapon trader, but also a good man who's simply trying to help another human and was just charging only necessary expenses needed to be able to craft the said life-saving weapon.
Of course, Duke Ersi imdiately left after their deal was settled. So that he could prepare the paynt that Pedro required and, at the sa ti, took care of Pedro's requests/conditions, including the patent or 'the right to manufacture' of the 'Aron Burner' magic weapon.
On the other hand, Pedro and the rest were left at the Northern Command Center of the Tarala Kingdom Military Departnt as Faunia satisfies her hunger. After all It's been days since she was able to eat food. In fact, even Pedro needed to borrow the kitchen to avoid cleaning the food storage of that Command Center.
After all, there was a shortage of food in the Kingdom due to the monster wave. And the food stored within that command center was allocated and designed to feed the Soldiers who were risking their lives to protect the Kingdom from monsters.
Out of respect to those soldiers, and not wanting to cause trouble to Duke Ersi, Pedro used his resources and simply cooked Faunia so food out of the Flocoloso Bird.
At this mont, Pedro could not help but smile as he glanced towards the 'satisfied' Faunia after cooking food for her non-stop. He murmured to himself, "I even needed to take over and cook her food! Well That is alright! What's important is that she's alive!"
