It wasn't until near the afternoon that the guards in Crowsburg discovered that their lord had disappeared - a coincidence, and that the servants had prepared lunch, but their lord had not come out of his study.

It had dragged on for too long for an old servant of sufficient seniority to dare to go to the top floor of the top floor of the Crow Castle to disturb their lord, only to find that the guards who were supposed to be guarding the gate were gone.

The old servant was astonished, and he pushed the door of the study, only to find that the wooden door panel had not moved, and that no response had come from the study.

The old servant, who sensed that something was wrong, called the other guards, and when they knocked open the door of the study, they were horrified to find - Kotaros? Lord Rafincrest's aide-de-camp, Disdale? Stareye and the two guards were lying unconscious on the floor of the study, and their lord had long since disappeared.

And so the whole of Crow's Castle boiled over - this historic castle was rarely so lively during the day - and the fully armed sentinels searched the whole castle and found no Cortalos? The whereabouts of Rafincrest until their adjutant Disdale? The awakening of Stareye.

Disdale? Stareye remembered everything that had happened in the study—though he certainly couldn't remember anything—but the wizards who had been ordered to come had reproduced everything that had happened in the room with their unique spells, and they could clearly see two young Night Elves and the priestess of the Moon Temple, with two strangers who had never been around the city of Sulama. Broke into the Crow Castle together and kidnapped the lord Kotaros? Master Ravencrest.

The Night Elves of Crowsburg were surprised by this fact and angry at the same time - in their opinion. This is not only a stupid and reckless move, but also a ...... Rebellion.

Without informing the Temple of the Moon God, Crowkeep sent its own guards, a pursuit force of mages and warriors, who vowed to take their lord back from the traitors.

Disdale? Stareye is the commander of this pursuing force - he is ashamed of his performance in the study, but he is not discouraged by this, and intends to wash away his shame with a victory.

……

Crassus wondered where he was, but woke up in a cave. Can't think of anything. Not being able to sense the presence of any living beings, let alone his kind, worries him. Could it be that the guards brought him here just to get rid of him? Did the guards want Crassus to die here?

The latter kind of speculation is the real danger. Pain and fatigue continued to destroy the slenderness of the magician's body. Crassus even felt as if someone had already torn half of him apart. Memories continue to frustrate him. He feared that all of these ailments would worsen over time, and that time was what he lacked the most!

No! I can't just give in! That's not me! He barely stood up and looked around. To humans or orcs, the cavern is almost pitch black. But Crassus could see inside it. It was as if the sun was shining inside. He could see the huge jagged stalactites and stalagmites, see every crack, and even notice the small lizards scrambling into the crevices.

Unfortunately, he did not find an exit.

"I don't have time to play these games!" He snapped into the air. The echo of his speech, with its repetition, seemed to be self-deprecating.

He's losing something. Of course, there must be a reason why he was left here, but ...... Why?

Soon Crassus remembered the way their race worked, the way it was for non-dragons. It's really cruel. A sneer crossed his cheeks.

The slender magician wore a turban and spun around slowly, without even blinking his eyes. Meanwhile. He began to recite the language of ritual greetings in a language older than this world. Repeated three times, each time emphasizing the nuances between them, as if he alone had learned the words from the source.

If there is no way to attract people who want to capture him, then there is no other way.

"It's like the words of the Creator!" Someone roared, "It was the Creator who made us exist in this world." ”

"It must be one of us," said another voice, "because he certainly wasn't one of them." ”

"Be sure to find out."

Suddenly, four red dragons appeared from the empty sky, and they received their world-covering wings majestically behind them, and then sat around Crassus, making his thin body recognizable. They glanced at the magician as if he were a bite of delicious food.

If they wanted to shake the primal feelings of the magician, then this time they failed again.

"It must be one of us." A huge male dragon said in a low voice. He snorted through his nose, his breath obscuring Crassus's path.

"That's who I am...... Why did I bring him? A little male dragon said resentfully, "He kept screaming. ”

Surrounded by comfortable smoke, Crassus turned to the second male dragon and said, "If you have inspiration from the Creator, you will immediately recognize who I am by who I am and the warnings I give!" We may be pardoned and leave from the territory of the king of the forest. ”

"I still don't know if it was a bad decision to bring you in!

"Where is this?"

All four dragons turned their heads in slight surprise. A she-dragon spoke: "If you were one of us, little dragon, you should know about it as much as you know your own nest." ”

Crassus cursed his rotten memory, which could only be one place. "In the cave of your own home? Or live next to the beloved Empress Alexstrasa? ”

"You do want to come here," the little dragon reminded him.

"The problem is still there." The second female dragon interrupted, looking younger and more sleek than the rest of the dragons, "Have you been further afield?" ”

"He can go where he wants." A new voice burst in, "As long as he answers me a simple question." ”

The four dragons and Crassus turned to find that a fifth, more mature dragon was suddenly sitting there. Compared to the original two-headed male dragon, this dragon's crown is even more impressive, running from the top of the head to the back. He was several tons heavier than the heaviest of the four dragons before, and even his claws were longer than the height of the little dragon. (To be continued......)
