Following Mr. Lester, he leaves the dining room and goes down to the basement floor. This is basically the living space of the women and servants of the service, and the work places such as storage and laundry rooms are also gathered here.

The marine city of Amar and the Wang capital of Kurt Melga are not directly connected by the Transfer Magic Formation. For this reason, I have laid down a transfer magic team with ownership here, connecting one of Wangdu's transfer management buildings to the top secret.

I clean up the warehouse behind the basement floor, where I lay the transfer magic formation and the simulation magic formation, but there were two light points floating in one of those rooms on the map that floated in my sight.

"My lord, I have brought Master Schwartz"

"Thank you, Lester"

"Mom!"

Ashley and Yumil were waiting for me in front of a pale, glowing transfer magic formation.

Yumil, whose throat had been scratched by Ashley, sounded delighted when she realized I had come into the warehouse, approaching her pet and rubbing her nose tip.

"Yumil, did you get Ashley to do better?

"Cu ~"

Yumil rattles her throat, wrapping her thin, long tail around my feet and rubbing it up.

"Welcome back, Schwartz. Did you finish your errands with Mr. Marta?

"It's over. I had Mr. Marta arrange for Yumil's gohan. I want you to receive it from the Marida Chamber of Commerce in Wangdu before you fly to Torinto."

"Gohan!"

"Thank you. We don't have enough in Torinto to cover Yumil's meal… we can rely on the transfer from Wang Du"

"We pay the Marida Chamber of Commerce a lot in advance. Mr. Marta will continuously prepare demon stones just for Yumil."

"Ok... I'll wait for you to deliver directly with Yumil in Torinto"

Ashley doesn't need a goodbye word anymore. Last night - I don't think I could have allayed all the anxiety she has, but still Ashley convinced me to get ahead of the line.

Crusade the Labyrinth Dragon and I will return to where Ashley waits.

I hadn't decided whether that was Amar or King's Capital - but apparently, at this moment, the place was set for Torinto.

"Are you waiting for Ashu and Mom?

"Yes, Yumil. We'll wait for Schwartz's return together."

"Cuh!"

Ashley also moves from front of the transfer magic formation to my side, staring at each other as we scratch Yumil's eyebrows together -.

"Ho hong!

The moment Yumil's head tried to get zero distance from each other, Mr. Lester's wazzing cough sounded as he watched what was going on behind my back.

"My lord, if we don't move, we'll be late for the other side's reception."

"Well..."

"Oh yeah..."

The distance, which was supposed to be zero, was away at once, and Yumil was blinking repeatedly as she tilted her neck at what was about to happen overhead.

Refresh your mind and gaze at Yumil.

"Yumil, from now on Ashley will take you to a new land"

"Cu?"

"That'll be your new address"

"Sumika ~?

"Yes - Yumil, let's promise me again. of this country… I want you to be the guardian dragon of the Kingdom of Kurtomerga and protect the world in which people live from all malice, calamity and outrage"

'Promise! Okay!

I can see that Yumil's ringing sounds in my brain as a word, and that Ashley and Mr. Lester's expression loosens for accepting my words - I guess it also sounds in the brains of the two of us.

But a promise is also a pledge of something to each other.

"Mom promises too! My mom's always been Yumil's mom!

The moment that voice sounded - I felt like something ran through my brain and pierced my body's core, punching a wedge that penetrated deeper into my mind.

"Oh, oh... ok. As long as Yumir keeps his word, I'll stay Yumir's mom."

Yes, when I responded to Yumil, I felt like a wedge punched into the abyss of my heart blended into my whole body -.

"Shh, Master Schwartz... what the hell is the glow now...?

Mr. Lester shrugged behind his back - Ashley was looking at me with her eyes open, too, to see that some change had happened to me.

"I don't know...... but I just - maybe I did something like a contract with a dragon"

"I have read such stories in old picture books... that a crimson dragon living far east will be the patron saint of the village with a promise to be a small village living behind the mountains..."

"What's that promise?

Ashley told me an old story as she stroked Yumil's neck.

The story of a small village that existed far east - the village had left the Eastern asylum and lived a subsistence life deep in the mountains.

But since the mountain was a demon mine with abundant resources to sleep in, the powers of the East turned to their soldiers to drive the villagers out of the mountain.

But at the same time - invited by the magic of its demonic mine, a red dragon, still young, descended on the mountain.

In response to the two forces that visited the mountain, the village sought help from Dragon, a greater and greater being.

I want you to leave the soldiers of the East and keep the villages and mountains safe.

Despite reckless demands, the red dragon responded to the village's help. Exchange just one promise...

And the soldiers of the east and the dragons clashed, and the peace of the village was preserved.

The red dragon nested in the demon mine, and the village dug and served the demon stone for the dragon.

And in accordance with the promises we exchanged to protect the village, every year we dedicated one - the most enclosed demonic child in the village - as a sacrifice (nier).

What happened to it? Though one every year, it is impossible to continue to survive the village if we continue to dedicate the young children of the small village to the dragon.

The promise had been fulfilled for more than a decade, when the village, unable to prepare the sacrifice to be offered, was instantly burned by the haughty fire of the red dragon, which remembered the taste of man, devoured and burned down the eastern kingdom.

That's where the story of the picture book ends. This old story teaches the lesson of not cheaply exchanging promises with dragons - powerful ones - the champions of nature.

After all, was the promise between me and Yumil cheap -?

I got time for an unexpected old story, but I'm glad to hear it. Drop off Ashley and Yumil riding the transfer magic formation -.

'Cause I'm waiting for you in Torinto.

"Yeah, I'll be on my way as soon as I crusade the Labyrinth Dragon. Until then, say hello to Yumil. Yumil, listen to what Ashley has to say and remember your promise to me."

"Cuh!"

What a good word to drop off. I dropped off Ashley and Yumil, who were wrapped in curtains of light and transferred, and in one of the rooms in the basement it was just me and Mr. Lester.

"Master Schwartz, I apologize earlier. Nothing on your body?

"It's no problem. Besides, I'll be leaving soon."

"Yes, I did. The chef is ready to wrap lunch sandwiches. Please, have it."

"It helps."

"No - Master Schwartz will eventually be our master. We can do anything for you."

Just like making him Chancellor Ashley and Zepernell, Ms. Lester corrected her posture and slowly lowered her head.

"That sounds a little early...... still, if you think Mr. Lester and the others recognize you, that's not bad"

"All those who serve the Zepernell family welcome Master Schwartz. I look forward to the day I serve you as my husband."

"It's kind of embarrassing. Then...... I'd like a delicious tea leaf and tea set for Torinto. When I'm done with this big job, I want to take my time watching the nature of Torinto and make it tea."

"Yes, I did. We have the best and look forward to your return"

Torinto is located in a basin surrounded by rugged mountain ranges. The mountain ridge you see from there is a very sacred and majestic landscape, says it wraps the mind of the beholder with an overwhelming presence and beauty. Tea to drink while admiring such a landscape would also be exceptionally delicious.

I had fun after the Labyrinth Dragon crusade. With that in mind, he went up from the basement floor and received a loading cage filled with sandwiches from the chef to follow the Zepernell mansion.

The aim is the southern waters of the marine city of Amar, where we intercept the labyrinth dragon (Labyrinth Dragon) and settle for this series of disturbances.
