Chapter 901 - Fairy Nest (2/2)
It was still the same now.
Rhode didn’t need to learn their language. The instant he became the dragon soul heir, he discovered that he unlocked another unique technique called [Language Proficiency]. This allowed him to easily understand the language of non-human races. In the eyes of outsiders, the fairies were happily singing and building their homeland. But he realized a problem from the lyrics to their ‘song’…
“There’s a wooden club… There’s a piece of stone… Too heavy… Can anyone help…”
The fairies turned to Rhode as he approached them. They didn’t seem to be cautious against strangers at all. They quickly surrounded him curiously, stopped singing, and began humming tunes among themselves.
“I’m the owner of this territory and I have come in the name of the dragon soul.”
Rhode introduced himself immediately. He scanned the fairies and they seemed like girls who were around 10 years old. However, they were only palm-sized. Their long green hair and eyes were symbolic of the fairies. They wore an outfit similar to the one-piece swimsuit from the real world, revealing their fair, slender limbs. On their backs were a pair of beautiful wings like butterflies, flapping constantly and releasing faint light dust which was known as fairy dust, a useful magical material only available in fairy nests. Although it would be helpful for Lapis, it was meaningless to Rhode now because at this moment, he was more concerned over the rights to the magic monster nest.
“I’ve come here to seek your assistance. According to the ancient contract, I need you to carry out your duties in serving me and I will protect your home from invasion and guarantee your safety. You will receive equal benefits as people in my territory. Now, are you willing to accept my invitation?”
The fairies pondered in silence before ‘singing’ again. But unlike the casual tunes, it sounded more like a harmony of sweet, pure voices. But Rhode knew that this was their way to ‘transmit information’ without speaking with words. Shortly after, as the harmonious sound became louder, more and more fairies joined their discussion. After a few moments, the gentle, melodious tune stopped and one of the fairies who appeared older and had a pair of silver wings flew nimbly to Rhode. Unlike the fairies who wore ‘swimsuits’, this fairy was clad in a pure, white gown and wore a tiny crown. She emanated a fascinating brilliance and stooped over to give a respectful bow.
“Greetings, supreme dragon. We’re willing to accept your invitation. I represent my fairies in accepting your protection. I swear by my spirit that we will follow you. If you don’t mind, I hope you can help provide us a suitable home. As our gratitude, we are willing to complete all missions that you appoint us.”
Perhaps due to Rhode speaking to them in their language, the fairy before him also responded in the same way. Rhode wasn’t surprised that the fairies would accept his suggestion swiftly because this was in their nature. They might be small and delicate, but their strength was otherwise. With them around and Agatha’s ocean elves, there shouldn’t be a problem in Rhode’s city.
“No problem, I have plenty of spaces for you in my courtyard.”
Rhode nodded and gave a decisive answer. The fairies instantly broke out in delightful cheers. Then, the leading fairy turned around and waved to her fairies.
“Everyone grab your stuff. We’re leaving this place and heading to master’s courtyard!~~”
The fairies chuckled and flew back into the forest. At the same time, the sweet-sounding voices sounded again. But…
“We’re moving to a new home… We have to get ready… Our master is beautiful… But doesn’t smile much…”
“…”
Rhode turned around as though he didn’t hear anything.
