A human with a face that falls within Setas aesthetic range was looking for Seta.
Seta sensed it and tried to find the human, so he had no choice but to step his feet in the mountains.
Sure enough, he can only sense it. Still, its hard to pinpoint a person in this huge world! At first, he didnt even know it was Olivia who was looking for him.
A human close to the human called Laritte, but not that female human!
Setas aesthetic standards were slightly different from those of ordinary humans.
When a human feels that it fits their aesthetics, the face usually feels beautiful, too.
Seta, however, was more demanding and paid attention to subtle differences that humans could not tell apart. Even if the position of the eye was only 0.1 inches higher or lower, it was out of Setas standard.
Of course, Olivia and Laritte had differences in their faces, and Laritte was more suitable for Setas standards.
Still, its not just the more the better The more beautiful faces, the better! He took out only the sa red wings with red hair, and flew through the wind and floated in the sky. He didnt seem to be cold, even though it was still winter.
He flew towards Olivias approximate location, to be precise, he went to the Dukes residence.
It was a pity so he wanted to see Laritte one more ti.
So, after half a day, Ian was finally able to et Seta. It was the day when Ians long-awaited dream ca true.
This damn dragon!
Ian clenched his teeth as if to grab Seta by the collar, sitting on the hallway window.
Seta was bewildered and could not land down the hallway. He stopped, grotesquely caught in the fra of the open window.
What? What, what?
I cant afford to chat right now. If you have any dragon material, bring them all right away! Sell it!
He had to find a permanent way for Laritte to escape from the magic in the air.
First of all, he ran out of dragon material, so it was urgent to replenish it. Seta gave Larit a dagger made from dragon ribs the other day. That said, there must be plenty of other things in his nest!
Seta poked his lips in anger.
Do not order ! I am a dragon!
There is no ti. Laritte may die soon I will pay any price, please!
The forr Duchesss dragon scale dress, worn by Larit, was the only thing left in the Dukes residence.
Seta hung from the window sill in a tearful face. He cant let that female human die, but its disgraceful for him to comply with a humans favor.
Dragons have a tendency to like jewelry or expensive things.
Anything in the Setas Rare is precious and uncommon. He actually contemplated the dagger that was given to Larit before giving it away.
Seta lowered his voice and shouted, even as his heart was shaking.
I dont follow the words of a human being!
Looking at the flow of magic in the first place, even if he brings her a few, she wont last long!
That was then.
Laritte saw Seta from afar in the hallway and approached her in a pleased mood.
She is always willing to people or dragons that are kind to her.
Seta? Whats going on here?
Not knowing that Ian was threatening Seta, she smiled softly.
Setas red pupils shook violently like the earthquake that struck an uninhabited southern island a decade ago.
To turn down Ians request, he had no choice but to leave before seeing Larites face.
Its already haywire.
Shit! Shit!
I I can never give away my precious rare treasures!
Of course, imitation of Larittes face is the greatest treasure!
Not even after a thousand years!
He resolutely drew an X with both arms, but after a while, his arms were filled with objects made from dragon remains.
Damn humans.
Ian took the things. Seta trembled as the treasures in his arms disappeared one by one.
Touch it carefully! That headdress was made from the sternum of my second-generation ancestors! Ah, thats the 34th backbone of the Red Dragon leader who died two hundred years ago This double-edged sword was bought from the human royal family six thousand years ago
It was a aningless rant.
Laritte did not understand what was going on, but noticed the treasures Seta had brought and smiled brightly.
Are you giving it to us? As expected, youre so kind. Thank you very much.
At the sa ti, it hasnt been long since shes wearing the dress.
Lets take off the dress right now!
The joy that the dress would be safe was greater than the joy that her own lifespan was slightly increased.
A fan of her face, Seta, unknowingly stopped getting angry after looking at Larittes smile.
Forgetting why he was angry, he ca down the hallway with dirty feet covered in dirt from the foot of the mountain.
Laritte took an old sword from Ian.
First of all, I will quickly change my clothes and co. Everyone, please wait for a mont.
When Laritte left, Seta went back into his irritated state, recalling why he was angry. He murmured, moving his mouth non-stop.
You robbers! Didnt I say? Its a short-term ans to survive with things that have magical powers. Its best to stay far away, but you dare ignore this dragons advice and even rob the dragon? Those who will be punished by Godwicked people
Ian understood all of Setas personality. Instead of begging for forgiveness, he asked urgent questions.
How long can Laritte last with these?
Its only a week! I did say short-term, right? The erroneous incident because you humans t will affect more and more over ti.
The attack of the magical power that has made the world was getting more and more severe.
Seta drew a picture in the air using magic. A crooked tree appeared along his index finger.
It is the sa story that like how a tree grows, it prunes more and more branches.
There is always one way for that female human to live within a fixed lifespan. You get away very far, forever.
Those words sat down on Ians lungs like a death sentence. Before Laritte ca back, he hurriedly asked in secret.
But how is it? In one ancient book, it was said that there was another way besides getting away or dying.
Seta clicked his tongue.
That would be borrowing the power of an object with magical powers to beco safe for a short period of ti, human.
It was actually a lie.
Ian and Larittes presence together interferes with the forward direction of the magic flow.
From that point of view, there is also a way by interfering with the world itself and changing the course of the magic flow altogether.
But Seta didnt say anything. To do that, they needed the help of all the dragons.
To dragons, humans are what humans see as ants are.
It is sothing that arose from the eting of two humans who should not have t. There is little possibility that dragons with strong individualism will join forces for the sake of humans.
As Ian kept silent, Seta scratched the back of his head as much as he could.
Soon after, Laritte changed into another dress and returned. Seta looked at her face and rembered why he was here.
By the way, female human, is there anyone with similar facial features to you? I was searching for such a human being around here. Of course, its a bit inferior to your aesthetics than you, but
There was only one person who looked like Laritte. Olivia.
My mother stays in the Duchys estate.
Where is that?!
Laritte who was trying to tell the erratic Seta Olivias village and the house number, then said.
Ah, you shouldnt be bothering Mother.
Seta preached how rciful a dragon was to humans by default. He said sincerely for ten minutes that especially if the human has a face befitting of their aesthetic, the compassion would multiply trendously.
Laritte thought. Its actually hurting my ears a bit
Eventually, she gave Olivias address.
Laritte realized as she watched Seta flew out and left. Co to think of it, she had just called Olivia mother.
Well, it could be. She thought so.
* * *
Olivia was slicing vegetables in the kitchen of a small house.
Green and yellow vegetables were cut to length with a repeating sound. On the table is a simple loaf of bread worthy of a rustic basket.
It was Olivias modest lunch.
A pleasant sll filled the small house. Because it was small, even with a small fire, it was quite warm unlike the outside air.
Just then, soone knocked on the door from outside.
Who is it?
No one should be coming.
Olivia opened the door with a cleaver in her hand.
A tall man was grinning against the backlight.
Thats right. You are the person I sensed! Nice to et you, human!
Oh Young man, do you know ?
I am the great Red Dragon, Seta!
Seta was satisfied.
Just because Olivias face is wrinkled and aged doesnt an shes against his aesthetic. Of course, she wasnt as good as Laritte. Only Seta knows Setas standards.
Olivia recognized Seta too. First, she politely bowed.
Its the dragon the Duke said about. Did you happen to et the Ducal couple?
You know?
Then you must have told them a new way to keep Laritte safe!
It was when Olivia was about to relax her heart.
Seta shook his head frankly.
No? There is no such thing.
Olivia looked at Seta silently.
The eyes that saw everything in the world pierced Setas lies. In fact, Seta had lived much longer than her.
She clenched the cleaver in her hand. Although she had gone out with the instincts of her dancer days, now Olivia was no longer concerned about the future.
Olivia spit out sullen remarks.
Cant you tell the truth?
The cleaver stuck on the open door fra between Olivia and Seta.
Seta broke into a cold sweat. What?
It was the age of the dragons suffering.
