My name is Akatosh,

…… Those guys are actually planning to do it at the same time?

—4E, 201, Last Seed, 30th, 20:12 —

Lydia is so powerful, Arthur nibbles on a fist-sized red fruit as he drives.

The caravan I encountered this morning belonged to the kind of speculators who only conducted a simple market research and did not ask the locals about the specific situation, and dared to rush to Skyrim Province with their goods, and as a result, half of the goods were destroyed under the attack of the giants.

Indeed, Skyrim Province is very cold, except for the hardy few fruits, there are hardly more varieties, the batch of tropical fruits they transported from Serodil Province should have made a lot of money, but there are also mammoths and giants that do not exist in the south, although the mammoths like fruits, but these cold-tolerant varieties in the north all have thick peels, if the giants who raise them do not get them, they will hardly have a chance to eat them, so if they smell this kind of fruit convoy that can be eaten directly, and the smell has been wafting along the road......

After Arthur and his companions rescued the retreat and defeated the giant, the merchants not only gave him a carriage, but also accompanied a small half of the fruit in the cart, seeing that Ella and the two girls were eating happily, Arthur instructed them a little - don't go to the market in the plains, the simple and martial Nords have a taste of this thing at most, and it is most suitable to sell it directly to the lords who often hold banquets, and it is also convenient for those nobles to brag everywhere, and then how to catch the lords of various places depends on their own ability.

As for the giant who caused this incident, it was not unknown, it lived in a depression known as the "Dakur Shelf" under the northern slope of the Frostfall Peak, which had caused many poachers to return without success or even suffered heavy losses, and because of its location to prevent the wild beasts of the southern mountains from descending the mountain to some extent, the guards of the snowy man did not see it as a threat that had to be cleared, and even if it was attracted down the mountain by the fruit convoy this time, the guards asked Arthur to simply repel it.

Speaking of the heroes who finally succeeded in repelling the giants, Arthur looked back, Ella was sharing fruit with the girls, and Lydia was leaning on her shield to close her eyes, and the relationship between the two of them seemed to have improved a lot after fighting side by side.

Although the giant is tall and strong, it still has limbs and organs similar to those of humans, and Arthur, who wields a two-handed sword, cannot guarantee that he will not cause too much damage while repelling it, and if he misses it, many wild animals may enter the snowman territory through the "Dakur shelf".

After that, Ladia caught each of the giant's attacks steadily, and Ella shot arrows at the giant's position where it would not be injured or disabled, and finally succeeded in driving it away.

Although it is easy to say now, the giant's vigorous swing with the trunk of the tree, and the various attacks that rush up and kick from time to time, each blow will make the people nearby feel the ground shake, in this case, Lydia who faces them still does not have any panic or mistakes, at most she will whisper to herself "hold on, hold on", Arthur can't imagine what kind of training she has received to get to her current level, but she has a deeper understanding of her declaration of "protect the baron's safety with her life".

"Hey, don't fall asleep, we'll be in Loristed right away." Arthur saw Sophie and Ria holding the fruit, little by little, so he called out.

"You still can't carry a little girl?" Ella rejected.

Little girl? Well, Arthur shrugged and turned his head to continue driving, who knows why a young dragon would be sleepy at night like a little human girl, when he met her in the middle of the night.

It stands to reason that it only takes a day to get from the snow to Loristed, but the problem is that the cart is still carrying fruit that attracts mammoths, and when it passes by the "Sleeping Tree Camp", it attracts the mammoths and giants there, and it takes a lot of time to shake them off, and finally when you can faintly see the fields and villages of Loristed, it is already completely dark.

This is a bit troublesome, Arthur scratched his head, because there was only starlight in the darkness around, and he couldn't let Ria see the "farmland that couldn't see the edge at a glance" that she had promised, and because it was close to night, even if there were still chefs working in the inn, he couldn't do the promise to Sophie "let go of eating, guarantee enough", as an agricultural town that provided half of Xueman's grain production, there should be ingredients, but whether it was for the chef who met for the first time to work overtime overnight or let people see Sophie eating raw meat and lettuce, it was not very good.

Now, the best way to deal with it is to take advantage of the drowsy and dazed two little girls, send them directly to the hotel to let them sleep, and sleep until dawn, and everything is solved.

"Hmph...... A man who doesn't keep his promises. Ella despised Arthur for a moment, but took the initiative to pick up Ria.

Although it sensed that Ella had something to say, Arthur could only smile wryly and hug Sophie, and ask Ladia to store the carriage and sell the remaining buckets of fruit on it.

"Baron, Miss Sophie seems to be very afraid of dragon corpses, is this okay?" Lydia shifted into the driver's seat, ready to drive towards the stable, when she suddenly pointed ahead.

Arthur turned his head to see the entrance to the village of Loristted not far away, and a blue dragon stood on the spot leading to the central square, but the faint light of the torches around him could tell that it was a dead one, and although the head was barely fixed around his neck, he could still tell that it had been smoothly cut off.

"Well, this must have been done by that 'dragon slayer' of Loris Tide, and it looks like a good trick," Arthur picked up Sophie, "but it's okay, she's asleep now." ”

There is a similar monument in Snowman, the "Millmenier" that Arthur himself eliminated in the western watchtower, and Sophie refuses to approach it when she is playing with her friends in the city, after all, she is also a dragon herself.

Perhaps Lydia had known that the top of the Brotherhood were werewolves before she was sent to serve as the Baron's guard, and that there was no doubt about Riya's transformation into a wolf girl or the purpose of the mission, but Arthur wasn't sure she knew about his ability to transform into a dragon and Sophie.

With a click, Arthur took a step forward and broke a branch in his path.

The distance seemed to be just past a certain tipping point, and the blue dragon that had been deliberately fixed in the shape of teeth and claws suddenly burst into flames, and as the flames kept burning the dragon corpse, bursts of dark red light surged from the dragon's corpse towards Arthur.

Ah, sure enough. Arthur, who absorbed the dragon's soul again, was not too surprised, even if ordinary people killed the dragon, they would not be able to absorb their souls, after all, it was a special ability belonging to the "dragonborn".

[Yol], this dragon rune is completely formed in Arthur's mind, and it will not be used after he has to transform into a dragon, but this rune seems to breathe fire from his mouth? It seems to be very ruined, and it seems that it is not suitable for display in a place where there are many ordinary people.

Arthur was thinking about something that he didn't have, when he suddenly felt Sophie's body suddenly become bigger and heavier, so he subconsciously let go of his hand.

Boom! The prototype of Sophie, which had not been seen for a long time, the white dragon that was more than half the size of the normal dragon, appeared in front of Arthur, and it watched blankly as Arthur sucked the dragon corpse into a skeleton, and then screamed and flapped its wings and flew away.

"[(Dragon's language) Help—]"

"Hahahaha!" Ella hugged Ria and laughed until she fell, and Ria who was woken up looked like she couldn't figure out what was going on.

"I'm not that scary, am I......" Arthur touched his nose depressedly, saying that he had indeed never slaughtered a dragon in front of Sophie, was she really subconsciously still a little afraid of her "dragonborn"?

"Even if it's an ordinary child, if you wake up and see your father eating people, you will be scared out of the door." Lydia seemed to answer with no surprise at Sophie's transformation.

"Anyway, I'm going to have to get her back—no, wait, I've learned a new way before." Arthur said as he stopped Ella, who was about to come over, after all, Ria had woken up, and that kind of almost intimate behavior was better not to be seen by the child.

"Hmph-" Ella stared at Arthur disapprovingly for a moment, then turned her hostile gaze to Lydia.

Although I don't know what Ella misunderstood again, the first problem now is to recover Sophie, as a dragon will not have any natural enemies, but if you meet someone who can easily decapitate the dragon corpse in front of you, it will be troublesome.

“【Kaan Drem Ov】！” Arthur sent out the spit that he had previously received from the Golden Tree of Gina Lace.

Huhuhu - not an instantaneous transformation with no intermediate process like being bitten by Ella, but can clearly feel himself constantly getting bigger and deformed, and finally turning into the giant red dragon, unable to speak normally in this form, Arthur simply nodded at Ella and Lydia, and flapped his wings into the night sky.

"Scared?" Ella walked over with Ria in her arms and said to Lydia, "Go back if you're scared, you can see that he doesn't need protection." ”

"It's not as expected, if the 'Dragonborn' who hasn't appeared for hundreds of years is an ordinary baron, I'll be disappointed," Lydia looked back at Ella, not flinching at all, "I will protect Lord Baron with my life." ”

"You...... Hum. Ella snorted and turned to the villagers of Loristed, who were gathering to notice the movement, and began to talk nonsense.

"Yes, there was a dragon attack just now, probably dissatisfied with this 'monument' you built, and burned it."

"That's right, Lord Dragonborn happened to pass by, just chased the dragon away, and is now chasing after it."

"Are you going to stand here and ask for the night, or do you want to let us in and rest first?"
