“A real Dragon?”

Nobody reacted to something one of the attack team member’s mumbled. No, they couldn’t react.

Only one individual reacted.

“Yes. I am a Dragon. I’m sure this isn’t your first time seeing one?”

Although he was surrounded by gold dust and half of his face was covered by a mask… His white gold hair and eyes were radiant.

“Mm.’

Chief Eaen gulped.

She knew that there was a monster behind her back but she couldn’t easily take her eyes off of the Dragon.

‘…My goodness.’

Marquis Helson had said that there was a black Dragon by the purifier’s side. He had said that it was a young Dragon.

However, there was a different Dragon in front of her right now.

Of course, it was possible that the black Dragon used dye magic to dye his hair gold before appearing, but the gold dust and gold mana that this Dragon was using did not show any signs of hiding anything.

‘He must be shocked too.’

The video communication device had been silent since earlier.

Marquis Helson was unable to say anything despite seeing everything.

“…Ha.”

Eaen turned her gaze for a moment after hearing someone sigh.

It was someone whose identity could not be properly investigated.

Mercenary Zero was sighing.

‘Hmm?’

Eaen thought that Zero’s eyes underneath his disheveled hair looked a bit odd.

‘…He looks a bit crazy?’

Zero mumbled to himself at that moment. It was extremely quiet.

“…Unbelievable.”

Zero felt his fingertips going numb.

His gaze moved toward the First Imperial Prince’s helper, the other Dragon.

This black-haired woman… She was unable to move at all and was completely focused on the man who was glowing white gold.

“Ke, keke.”

Zero smirked. His eyes lit up with passion.

‘I thought that it was weird.’

The Dragon that the First Imperial Prince had brought with him…

When he first saw this supposedly extinct creature in the party hall, he assumed that she was really a Dragon because everybody was calling her a Dragon.

‘A real one is like this.’

Now that he experienced a real Dragon, he could tell that a real Dragon needed nobody to tell him it was a Dragon for him to know the truth.

‘Yes, this pressure, this power that seems out of this world, and-’

The mana swirling around the Dragon…

Although it was different from the black vine waves that were headed toward the attack team not too long ago, a large golden tsunami was surrounding this Dragon.

This tsunami looked as if it could turn into violent waves at any moment to destroy everything around it.

“…Boss.”
