Chapter 24 (1/2)

Coming out of the forest, Shin moved towards the entrance.

The entrance had no door and was in the shape of an arch, nothing more basic but at the same time no need to make a box as it is only for humans.​​

Dragons can fly over it after all.

Shin walked into the crowd which was not only made up of soldiers but also citizens.

The citizens went out to look after the cattle next to the walls and to fetch water from the river or the well.

The surrounding area was fairly secure with the two dragons stationed at the entrance and dragons patrolling in the air all around Dragnof.

However, in general, enemy dragons did not usually venture so close to Dragnof so citizens could go in without worrying about danger.

There were even travelers coming to Dragnof which was quite surprising for Shin given the threat of dragons outside.

He didn't know if he should say he was brave or stupid.

Or maybe they had reasons for it.

Anyway, Shin melted into the crowd and approached the entrance.

Along the way, he received glances of curiosity, but no more.

Good, I don't seem to attract more attention than that.

Glad he could pass by without being stopped, Shin watched the two dragons guarding the door as he passed through to see their reaction.

The two dragons didn't seem to care about Shin, their eyes crossed but they quickly ignored him.

Well' Shin moved forward and finally entered Dragnof's kingdom.

Finally entering the streets of Dragnof, Shin was impressed by the medieval architecture of the city. He was not used to seeing buildings in this style. This architecture gave an atmosphere and beauty that was not unpleasant and the good humor and harmony radiated by the humans and dragons was very comforting and nice to see.

Thinking that this place would sooner or later disappear saddened Shin, really.

He could understand why Queen Irene was trying to protect this kingdom and its inhabitants.

He continued to venture deeper into the streets as he admired and looked around.

He seemed to be on a commercial street as he was surrounded by a large number of stalls.

There were stands of food, clothing, jewelry, restaurants, stores, everything to experience a small paradise.

Everyone seemed to be happy and no one seemed to be short of money.

He didn't say that they were all rich, but there didn't seem to be any citizens who were so destitute that they were homeless.

And that was what made him so charming according to Shin.

Shin could see that looks were always cast on him but never malicious.

While he was admiring, a scent came into Shin's nose.

Smelling this smell, Shin began to drool involuntarily.

Completely conquered by this smell, he decided to follow it to find out where it came from.

The smell Shin was following took him to a stand that sold large meat skewers with a yellow sauce he didn't know.

Seeing these skewers and smelling the smell that had become stronger, Shin's eyes were filled with stars and reflected a great dėsɨrė.

He rushed to the stand and saw a grandmother behind the stand.

She was the seller of these beautiful skewers.

The grandmother who saw Shin approaching his booth was surprised by her appearance that she had never seen before, but she came to her senses and her working spirit.

”Hello” said the grandmother politely.

The grandmother's words brought Shin out of his state and came back to his mind to see the grandmother.
