“Ah, has the bird transformed into a bone dragon after just a few days?” Lynn was a little surprised.
A good mount, aside from aiding in battle, was also a matter of face for its owner!
Driving a Mazda, no wonder you are stuck in traffic!
When going out, whether it was riding a bird, a griffin, a dragon, or an angel were all different.
Despite its appearance, the bone dragon might not match other dragons in terms of prestige, and its combat prowess could even be compared to that of the white dragon, known as the disgrace of the dragon clan. Yet, it was still classified among the formal dragons illustrated in the wizarding bestiary, not just as a dragon beast or sub-dragon.
Even the most basic model of a BBA at least had a logo.
“This is my companion,” the fly demon said with a hint of pride, introducing the bone dragon to Lynn.
Understanding this, Lynn knew that the bone dragon’s strength would not be significantly weaker than the fly demon’s own.
The dragon, with its yellowed bones, lowered its massive head—larger than a sedan—and fixed its gaze on Lynn. In its eye sockets, a flickering blue flame danced.
Up close, Lynn could even see the subtle cracks in the bones and the blackened patches on its skeletal frame. The bone dragon had likely seen better days.
“Human wizard, your scent is quite sweet and appetizing,” the bone dragon spoke slowly in the demon language.
“Really? I’d say your bones would make a fine stew,” Lynn replied in the newly learned demon language.
“Hahahaha.” The bone dragon’s laughter boomed arrogantly.
Suddenly, the four-armed brute force demon behind Lynn thrust out a fist and struck the bone dragon’s jaw with a powerful punch.
The bone dragon, caught off guard, crashed to the ground with a thunderous thud, its heavy body collapsing a small hill behind it.
“If your brain isn’t up to par, it’s better not to use it.”
Lynn’s smile vanished as he turned his cold gaze toward the fallen bone dragon.
His right hand subtly touched the ring on his left hand.
“Fly demon, we’ve had several collaborations as old friends, haven’t we? Your mount seems to be rather disobedient.” Lynn said, his eyes shifting toward the fly demon.
The fly demon’s expression changed slightly. It hadn’t expected the bone dragon to provoke Lynn suddenly.
Countless black specks, previously gathered as flies, reassembled into the fly demon. However, the fly demon’s aura was noticeably weaker than before.
“Forgive me for the inconvenience,” the fly demon said. “Consider this carcass as my apology.”
“I don’t think I need to test the quality of these weapons any further. I am quite pleased.” Looking at the weapon in the four-armed brute force demon’s hands, the fly demon nodded with satisfaction.
The quality was evident. If the weapons could slice through the bones of a bone dragon, their craftsmanship was unquestionably superb. They were top-tier, no doubt about it.
The previous batch of weapons had been subpar, almost like toys. Yet now, Lynn had provided such high-quality weapons, even considering the size requirements for demons.
The fly demon’s attitude toward Lynn, as a business partner, had significantly improved.
“Did you bring the ores?” Lynn asked.
“Ah?” The fly demon appeared confused. What ores?
Wasn’t this batch of weapons supposed to settle Lynn’s debt from the previous transaction?
“Ah, right. Here’s the contract. Please sign it,” Lynn said, producing the trade contract for the fly demon to sign.
“We agreed on a 50-50 split for the crafted weapons. I’ve already used half of the ores you provided. The completed weapons are here. Does that mean the remaining ores are mine?”
“Indeed, they are yours,” the fly demon confirmed with a nod. This had been agreed upon in advance.
Moreover, the quality of the weapons Lynn had provided was undoubtedly satisfactory.
“That’s right. So, our transaction is already complete. Of course, I have my people forging weapons with the remaining ores, but the ores consumption is rapid. Without ores, the work there will come to a halt,” Lynn said, spreading his hands.
“I didn’t bring any ores,” the fly demon shook its head.
The ores it had brought last time were all handed over to Lynn, and it had not received any weapons in return, so it was impossible to bring ores for this transaction.
“But can you handle so many weapons?” Lynn inquired. “The efficiency of weapon crafting is only going to improve.”
“Don’t worry, I can handle more,” the fly demon assured, then paused, “In half a month, I’ll bring the remaining ores to trade with you. By the way, do you need any demon slaves?”
“If their bloodline is of a higher level, I might consider it. I don’t want any with lower bloodline quality,” Lynn replied. Demons with inferior bloodlines were merely cannon fodder, and his own ranks of cannon fodder were already sufficient.
