Andy ordered his troops to clean up the battlefield and sort out the mess

Everyone's eyes were on the dragon who flew in lazy circles above us before landing on the town square plaza, a few spaces in front of me

”Is this the powerful enemy you mentioned that frequently attacks you?” He tilted his head and slightly tilted one wing to point to Morgan's frozen troops

I blinked for a , ”Yes”

So it turned out that Fruys was actually listening to everything I had said back then

He snorted out two puffs of air and said to me, ”This can't even be called a war”

I looked at hi

He said, ”This is merely a scuffle”

A scuffle, that is, a skirs I think that's what he meant

I expressedI could do for him

I initially thought that he would want nothing- after all,he would have considered valuable

However, I was taken aback when he bluntly told me, ”I want treasure Lots and lots of treasure”

I alht I misheard

In the end, I brought him to the lord's private storeroom- in theory, this place ned by my o off to war Every ti back the three most valuable treasures he personally picked froive toall of them

A pair of ice blue eyes narrowed slightly as they took in the collection of items inside

”It's much better than I expected,” he finally decided, and then brazenly ordered me to leave

I watched Fruys shrink his figure, then squeeze into the storeroo outside to wait for him

The wandering bard once told ons liked to kidnap beautiful princesses and hoard old and silver ordinary people could only dreaons would crush anyone who dared challenge the their predestined hero

I wondered silently to old for a good night's rest? Did Fruys intend to turn the storeroo nest?”

However, it was soon revealed that I was overthinking things

After three hours with no signs of Fruys co the door to take a look

Fruys, who had shrunk in half, was sleeping soundly on the floor, surrounded by scattered bits of black, yellow, and red metal Save from him and the scraps, the storeroom was completely empty

Included in the things that disappeared were the scratches and scrapes on Fruy's body, and were now replaced by a layer of faint gloss covering his scales

I didn't know if it was htly lighter in color

At this moment, Fruys opened his eyes I asked with difficulty, ”What happened to everything here?”

”I absorbed all of it,” he respondedto breathe
