"...You're quite funny Harold. So you almost got our pledge broken to that Mir or some ancient dragon?"

Eleanor taunted, her voice laced with mockery.

With a knife-like sensation on my throat, I quickly and concisely conveyed everything that happened, leaving out unnecessary details.

Her response was half-hearted, responding to me with 'Are you telling me to believe that?' and 'It's interesting, keep trying.'

As if she didn't fully believe what I was saying. Part of her seemed intrigued and urged me to continue. She looked at me with an expression that was both subtle and hard to describe.

Despite some progress in resolving the issue, she still seemed skeptical and didn't fully believe me. She maintained her cold, empty gaze and narrowed her eyes as she stared at me. In response, I met her gaze directly, trying to convey confidence in the truth of my story.

"Hmmm, I don't think you're lying, Harold, and you better not. So now, tell me the detail."

Fortunately, it seems like I have been successful in persuading her to some extent, and the chains binding me are slowly being released, allowing me to tell her the full story.

I take a deep breath, feeling the air fill my lungs, now lighter with the freedom that has been granted even just a little bit.

My heart continued to beat vigorously, a lingering ferocity still coursing through my veins. I knew I needed to calm down and regain composure before continuing.

With utmost concentration, I reminded myself of the stakes at hand.

The consequences of missing a single word or inadvertently saying something foolish could result in an avalanche of troubles.

I couldn't even fathom the magnitude of the problems I would face if I failed to be cautious and precise when telling the story.

The gravity of the situation had etched itself deep into my memory, leaving a lasting impression akin to a traumatic experience.

I told Eleanor everything that happened with as much detail as possible, making sure to not miss anything because I'll get into trouble again if I did that.

As Eleanor listened, she nodded in understanding, her expression showing a mix of different emotions.

"Hmmm..."

After hearing the story, Eleanor put her chin in her chin and gently closed her eyes as if in thought for a moment, but that was only for a moment...

Thud!

"Goddess..? ㅡ Huh?!"

Suddenly, she dug into my arms and hugged me, rubbing her face against my chest and taking in a deep breath.

Ssssppp!

She took a deep breath, inhaling my scent in a single big breath, and then furrowed her eyebrows in response.

"It smells disgusting... but it does smells like a bitch of a dragon and also the smell of corruption. It's like the scent of a pathetic creature I've encountered before...."

I'm not sure if she's fully convinced yet, but I managed to persuade her that I didn't intentionally try to break the pledge.

"Is she really the dragon that Goddess knows?"
