Chapter 110. The Spooky Town IV

Dragon King's Harem Chapter 110. The Spooky Town IV

"Can we take a seat, Sir Ar?" Evelina said. Not only was she tired, but she also didn't want to stare at the statue that could spoil her appetite any longer.

As soon as they saw Evelina and Jyne's pale faces, it was clear they didn't like this statue either.

"Okay," I said.

The inn owner invited us to sit at a table next to the fence. It was the best place to enjoy the two statues.

"What would you like to eat, sir?"

"Give us 4 mugs of Bloody Juice and today's chef recommendations," I said. I simply took this dinner as a food adventure.

"Right away, sir." After that, he left.

Jyne took a glance at the inn owner to make sure it was far enough before she leaned on Evelina who was sitting beside her.

"I don't get it, how can they live in a place like this and not have nightmares," she whispered.

"As you can see, it is the environment that influences this. So this is a normal thing for them," replied Evelina.

"B-But... How? And why? I don't get it. Why do they like things like this?" Jyne whispered.

I turned my face to the side to cover my smile. Although I could understand them, I still found this was funny, so rather than my laughter spoiling their mood, I let them express what they had in mind about this place.

My eyes fell on the statue in the lobby and my mind tried to guess the duke of the Dwarf tribe's purpose. Since several years had passed and nothing had happened, it might just be a coincidence. But, why would a Duke go to another tribe's territory by road? My guess remained on Sela. From what I remembered, the duke of the dwarf tribe was Sela's childhood friend. Maybe he wanted to do something or tell something about what happened in their tribe. Unfortunately, I had no clue about this. But since nothing happened after that, I would let it slide for a while. I had enough problems, I didn't want to add to them anymore. After all, he seemed to mean no harm to the Dragon Tribe.

The sound of footsteps accompanied by Eir's voice broke my mind.

"Did you see that?" he said in excitement. His hands were filled with our bags. But before he sat down, his gaze shifted to the other statue.

"Whoa!" His hands placed the bags near his seat before he approached the statue.

"Another masterpiece," he muttered. Eyes inspected the statue in detail like mine.

His words made Evelina and Jyne shake their heads from side to side.

"I think the dragon tribes have a strange sense of art," Jyne muttered.

"The person who defeated the monsters was using a high-level magic spell, so the statue is a symbol of the strength of the person who defeated him. And the dragon tribe likes everything that symbolizes strength or victory," I explained. If it was a formalin-preserved monster corpse or something, we wouldn't consider it a masterpiece.

Again, the women answered me by shaking their heads from side to side.

"I still don't get it," said Jyne. While Evelina gave me a wry smile.

After a few seconds of admiring the statue, Eir finally returned to his seat.

"The fur texture doesn't look as detailed as the previous one, but it's still really cool," he said happily. Not many people could master a high earth spell like this. Since the low level could only turn its victims into shapeless stones, that type of level usually only worked for low-level monsters.

"Indeed," I said.

Eir opened his palm and looked at him.

"Too bad I can't raise my earth skill to that point. Otherwise, I'll be happy to do it." The Dragon Mana's element was fire, so Eir was already good enough since he could master all the elements. But as a fire element creature, there was a wall that he could not destroy.

"Should I make one if we find a monster like that?" I tried to cheer him up. As long as I could get Terra, I could also do the same with that.

In an instant, Eir's face brightened.

"That's a good idea. We can put it at the palace's entrance as a decoration," he suggested.

Unfortunately, the idea was met with the women's pale faces. Their objections were visible on their faces.

"You want to put that at the entrance? Wouldn't that scare the guests?" said Jyne in refusal.

"Jyne's right, Eir." My words managed to put a smile on Jyne's face.

"The statue might be intimidating to guests. It has the potential to cause misunderstandings. They'll think we're trying to look more superior than them," I explained. I didn't mean to brag about my tribe since what I was saying was the truth.

And that managed to make the smile on Jyne's face fade.

A breath of disappointment escaped his mouth.

"I think taking it as a collection is good enough," he suggested.

"Does the Palace already have many statues like this?" Evelina said quickly.

Her words made Jyne turn to her in shock.

"The Palace has many statues like this?" she repeated.

"Yes. In the northern warehouse," Evelina replied. Yeah... It was the previous dragon king's collection.

"But we don't have the death element monster statue yet," said Eir.

"I think we should add one to the collection once we find a monster that matches the others," I said.

"Oh no..." said Evelina and Jyne in unison.

"Don't worry. I'll put it in the warehouse. So you won't see it either," I reassured them.

The women exchanged glances before turning to me.

"At least, it's better. Besides, the room was already full of it from the start," said Evelina. He was a king and it was his Palace, she and Jyne couldn't do anything to stop him anyway.

Then our conversation stopped as a fragrant smell of food tickled our noses. We turned in the direction of the smell and found two waiters carrying two trays of food.

"Your dinner, sir," they said. Swiftly, they put down the plates containing the food and four mugs filled with blood-red liquid.

In an instant, Evelina and Jyne's faces turned pale again.
