Chapter 23 (2/2)
They felt the most terrifying warning in their lives!
“If you don’t stop, then all of you will become my food!” That was what Alexia’s roar sounded like to them.
The chaos that had lasted for more than a month finally stopped under her threat.
However, what they did not expect was that Alexia’s roar had also attracted many unwanted human guests.
Although Joshua was exiled, many forces had still sent people to spy on the area to observe the situation, just in case of any sudden changes regarding Joshua.
The dragon’s roar made them very interested to know more!
This was because there were not many dragons in their entire continent, and all dragons were under the control of a single entity.
Alexia’s roar made them mistakenly believe that an unknown dragon had appeared in this undeveloped area. Soon, the news spread to all other countries.
They sent people to this undeveloped area one after another, ready to find the dragon’s home.
After ending the conflict between the various demi-human races that surrounded them, Joshua once again sent a patrol team from the village to explore the surroundings.
He asked them to search for more resources, mineral veins, magic ores, and so on…
Although this territory had developed very quickly, it was still not as developed compared to the rest of the world. It did not even have the most basic automatic tools.
Therefore, he decided to start a careful exploration of these areas after the chaos ended.
At this time, on the beach to the south of the village, a ship fell from the sky and landed on the beach.
The merchant group’s captain, Mondette, shook her fists at the sky and roared, “You bastards! I told you to be careful while flying and you even dropped me! How could you be so careless? You didn’t even open the shields!”
The person piloting the skyship immediately ran out of the cabin.
He apologized to Mondette who had fallen to the ground, “Captain, I’m really sorry! I really didn’t mean it!”
“Who would have thought that a dragon would suddenly appear in this place and it would even be a full adult one at most?”
Hearing this, Mondette immediately stood up from the deck. The first thing she did was to rub her buttocks, which had been bruised from the rough landing.
Then, she asked doubtfully, “Was it really a dragon’s roar? Are you sure you didn’t hear it wrong?”
“Of course I didn’t hear it wrong. I saw it with my own eyes through the magic lens in the cockpit! It was a huge white dragon, and its scales were glowing with a faint golden light!”
Hearing the description, Mondette immediately frowned. She had not heard of any dragon from that family having recently snuck out from the Floating Plane!
Moreover, it was a holy dragon. This kind of creature was the closest to a god, so how could it be out here in the wilderness!
Mondette immediately treated this matter as a joke. Then, she said to the crew, “Since we’ve landed, please think of a way to fix the ship!”
As she said that, one of her crew members unfurled a rope that touched the shore. Mondette grabbed the rope with one hand and immediately slid down from the deck to the beach.
Seeing that the captain was acting on her own, the crew felt very helpless.
One of them immediately put up his hands in defeat and said, “I knew you wouldn’t believe me, so I’m not going to bother pushing it. God knows why there’s a holy dragon here!”
He muttered those words and went down the deck to go to the mechanical room to repair the skyship.
