The giant dragon stared down at Polyphemus, with Polyphemus sweating in nervousness, ans chuckling nervously.
"Um... Hey there! I'm just a traveler, i... Um.. Come in peace, you must be Aurelius." The Dragon looked over to the dead sheep that Polyphemus shot down.
"YOU.. Killed my sheep..."
The Dragon looked at the sheep, with tears.
"My favorite sheep.." Polyphemus looked very scared, knowing he killed Aurelius's favorite sheep, until Aurelius's tone changed into an angry tone.
"Just what gives you the right to deal with a pain so deeply.. And having the pain you so deeply seek.."
"Well.. I didn't know you had favorites."
Aurelius scoffed.
"Then it means you truly don't know who i am, if you knew, then you would have realized the pain you've just put me through, hm?"
Polyphemus sweated nervously.
"Very well, so tell me, murderer.. How do you choose to die?"
Aurelius's throat started to glow, and Polyphemus thought of an idea.
"Hey hey hey! Let's make a deal what do you say huh? I give you my greatest treasure, and you spare me? You can try the best tasting wine ever!"
Aurelius's throat suddenly stopped glowing.
"Wine?"
Aurelius tilted his head.
"Um yea!" Polyphemus snapped his finger and a golden barrel appeared.
"Here, have a drink, and witness the power that is in your very own hands."
Polyphemus pushed the barrel towards Aurelius.
"A wine, so fresh you'd never want to eat human flesh again."
Aurelius looked amazed, hearing that a wine can make him stop eating human flesh.
"Interesting.. Tell me, what is the secret ingredient into making it huh?"
"Umm.. It's just the umm.. Young grapes! Yea! Young grapes and mixed with sugar, and umm.. With honey as well! And there, the best tasting wine ever!"
Aurelius looked Concerned.
"But doesn't that make anything in my mouth slimy hm?"
Polyphemus sweated even more, Aurelius became more concerned.
"Tell me.. What else is in the wine?"
"uhhh... Uhh.."
"Uhhh-What." Aurelius mocked Polyphemus, and Polyphemus got it.
"And with Orange Juice! And with that it doesn't make your mouth and saliva or anything slimy, but it can boost your immune system."
Aurelius looked confused.
"I'm immune to sickness, why do i need to boost it anyway?"
"Look, just drink it, it's really, really delicious!"
Aurelius looked even more concerned, but accepted the offer.
"Fair enough." Aurelius grabbed the golden barrel, and opened the lit, and dranked the wine inside of the barrel.
"Ahh... I'd like to thank you." Aurelius placed the barrel where it was once.
"Stranger, what's your name by the way?"
Polyphemus looked surprised by the response of Aurelius asking him about his name.
"Oh my name is Polyphemus and i was from a different universe, however... It was destroyed."
"Hmm.. Polyphemus, well i must admit, the wine you offered me, was delicious, and as a trading, you may freely, leave this place."
Polyphemus chuckled nervously.
"I'm glad, i managed to pay the price for the murder of your sheep, forgive me.."
Aurelius laughed.
"No worries, he was near at dying of old age, but atleast you've put him out of his misery."
"Alright then, I'm on my way."
Polyphemus walked away while Aurelius spoke.
"Yes... You'll be the final man.. To... Die..."
Polyphemus stopped walking and looked at Aurelius.
"W-What?"
Aurelius smiled.
"You didn't think i noticed hm?"
"N-Notice what?"
"THE POISON YOU IDIOT!" a tail then whipped the back of the barrel, with a skull on it, meaning danger or poison, Polyphemus looked even more nervous and scared.
"Do you really think you can fool me that easily huh? I KNOW that Mythes sended you here to kill me and he also brought Agnar with you hasn't he?"
Polyphemus backed up in fear.
"What? Did you think I'm some sort of a mindless and dumb animal? Oh you are mistaken.. I am a wise dragon i know everything and i know what happens next."
Aurelius looked around the walls of the basement.
"SHOW YOURSELF AGNAR, I KNOW YOU ARE HERE."
A loud thump was heared from behind Aurelius, and then something striked the back of Aurelius.
"THERE YOU ARE!" Aurelius Spewed Hell-Fire towards at Agnar, however Agnar was fast enough to avoid the flames and kept on running at the stairs.
"Run Polyphemus! Get to the upstairs!"
Polyphemus nodded and ran away from the battle, he got up and ran outside from the Mansion, trying to catch his breath, until suddenly a loud sound was heared, Aurelius broked through the walls of his Mansion, and flew away from it.
Agnar appeared in front of Polyphemus, disssapointed.
"Dam it, we let him escape."
"Ohohoho! You absolute idiots!"
A voice was heared from behind, a golden armored individual with horns and a Golden Halberd.
"You do know you've just angered one of the MOST dangerous Dragons in Cosmopolitan Creation huh?"
The Individual sighed.
"I should have expected more, from a demon, and a Demi-God."
"We may have Angered Aurelius, but it is for a good reason you know, now we just need to know where he'll go next."
The Individual looked at Agnar concerned, until he sighed.
"Heimdall will be the judge of that." The Individual walked onto a path. Polyphemus and Agnar followed.
"Alright, you 2 did worst jobs, so that means we must go back to base."
Polyphemus thinked about the individual's appearance.
"Wait a second, your appearance is familiar, are you... Are you Hermes?"
"Correct."
Polyphemus nodded, knowing the individual's name is Hermes.
"Alright, now stand near me so i can take you back to the base."
Hermes standed and raised his arms, the 2 standed near hermes.
"How are you gonna take us back to base?"
Polyphemus asked nervously.
"Like this."
"Like Wha-" Before Polyphemus could finish his sentence, suddenly the trio zoomed through at light-speed.
This traveling was so fast that can make even a deity vomit., until they arrived in the base.
"Alright, we arrived."
"Wait a second, i gotta do something."
Polyphemus walked while being dizzy, walked into a near-by bush and vomited.
Hermes looked confused until Agnar spoke.
"He's a new recruit."
Hermes nodded.
"Okay, now we're good."
Polyphemus got up and walked along with the trio, back into their base.
