Grandmaster Date slowly walked down the streets, and the changes of Mejepoltan day by day made the old dragon man more and more uncomfortable with the bustling Mejepoltan here.

But what drove him to come to this place reluctantly...

Gluttony in the stomach.

He hadn't drunk for a while, and he had to put down what he was doing to satisfy his desire after a slow cultivation.

The problem is that his disciple Elam went out to improve his skills in the hunt, and he...

No money.

After casually looking at a piece of bamboo holding wine, and then using his air blade to catch a few delicious black fish in the river, Grandmaster Date walked towards the city with a tattered hat on his head.

Soon, he chose a restaurant, and the smell of wine from it made Grandmaster Date churn in his stomach.

Striding in, Grandmaster Date found a middle-aged fat man who looked a lot like his boss.

"Hey. This boss. ”

Grandmaster Date carefully controlled his strength so as not to stab the person in front of him.

"Can I get some wine?" Use these fish. ”

The fat boss looked at the tattered Grandmaster Date and frowned, then flipped the fish that Grandmaster Date had brought.

"You filthy old man, you're fooling me with these cracked Arowanas? Can these fish cook? ”

The boss, who didn't know the great role of the Broken Arowana in the manufacture of crossbows, clearly knew that these fish must not be slammed.

"! I don't have the heart to serve you! ”

The boss did not hesitate to give the order to evict the guest, but Grandmaster Date looked at the fish in his hand in confusion, but he was reluctant to leave for a while.

I rely on this old man!

The fat boss scolded in his heart, he was really a little afraid that this old man who was a little tattered was rolling around here.

After filling the bamboo knot brought to Grandmaster Date with the worst sake, he once again ordered the expulsion of the guests.

Grandmaster Date shook his head helplessly, and as he walked out of the restaurant, he filled his wine cravings with sour sake.

Kida, who was walking on the road, suddenly felt a feeling of electric shock coming from his whole body, he looked around suspiciously, and finally saw Grandmaster Date walking slowly on the road.

A burst of warmth welled up in his heart, and Keida watched with tears in his eyes as he gradually moved away from his back.

It was he who taught him how to use the Qi Blade, and it was he who enabled him to go to a greater world...

Keida strode forward and embraced Grandmaster Date into his arms.

————————————————

After a long absence, Grandmaster Date expressed enough shock at meeting Keida again, and then Grandmaster Date, who had satisfied his drunken cravings, returned to his daily self again.

Silence, focusing on the air blade.

Then he followed Grandmaster Date to his residence... Grandmaster Date's residence was built in a very remote bamboo forest in the wild of Mejportan, which is almost identical to Grandmaster Date's residence outside of Kantas.

A dilapidated but neat little bamboo hut, and then there are the hats and fishing rods.

Everything from the past was reflected in Keida's eyes, and there was another burst of tears.

Then, Grandmaster Date began to explain his doubts: it was clear that his qi blade was countless times stronger than when he first debuted, but now he had a lot of trouble destroying an electric dragon.

Kida, who had opened the conversation, finally couldn't hide the words that had been hidden in his mind for a long time, and he began to recount everything about himself. This includes the bravery of hunting the Horned Dragons with his teammates in Kantas, and the fight to the death against the Scourge Dragons in the final battle of Kantas. Until recently, it appeared in the village of Millard.

Meet Instructor Lily, learn the hunting techniques that were untaught at Kantas, challenge monsters, and then hunt powerful and terrifying creatures.

also told the process of fighting with the sword brake wolf and the electric dragon.

Feeling much better, Keida looked at Grandmaster Date in front of him, and his body weakened for a while.

The starry sky covered the earth, and it was also midnight, and the two of them seemed to have no sleep.

After a long time, Grandmaster Date, who was immersed in the story of Kida, muttered, "Are you wondering why your strength has dropped? Why can't you play your strength? ”

Kida nodded repeatedly.

Grandmaster Date was silent, and he pressed his head close to Keida's heart, and Keida watched his movements suspiciously.

The dragon Ida, who is more than 280 years old, is also more than 90 years old when converted to the lifespan of a human being. Grandmaster Date's dragon-man ears were wrinkled, and he was unable to resist the gravity that had been working since birth.

"Bang."

"Bang."

"Bang."

It was still beating vigorously, but Grandmaster Date could no longer find the youthful and energetic beating of Kida.

After a long time, Grandmaster Date retracted his head and took the Demoiselle with him again.

"Your heart has changed."

"Huh?" Grandmaster Date's serious words left Keida confused.

"You've lost a strong heart, I don't know where you were or when you lost it, but there's no doubt that you had it back then, and you were at that time - far stronger than you are now."

"A... A strong heart? Keda looked at his hands, incredulous.

When did you lose your enterprising spirit?

When hunting the first dragon? Or was it when you were disgusted with hunting beaver beasts before? Or was it even earlier, when he fought to the death with the Scourge Star Dragon?

I don't know, the gloomy road ahead made Keida cower and dare not move forward.

"If you want to regain this strong heart, you need to think about yourself."

What do you hunt for?

Why fight?

Grandmaster Date's words slammed into Kida's heart like a heavy hammer, causing her to leap and throb.

Grandmaster Date disappeared in front of Kida's eyes, giving Kida plenty of room to remember, while Kida looked at the river in front of him, wandering quietly.

Remembering my own past, the original beginning.

Himself and the herbivorous dragon are a little piece of happy Zhang Da, carefree.

Then in the lie that "the Great Monster Bird is the most powerful creature" compiled by the hunter Urul, he spent the first half of his dull life.

However, the fateful moment came, and the hunter team from Kantas showed Kida about the vast world outside.

It's not just the big monster birds that are terrifying in the world, but also the flaming female fire dragon.

After fighting side by side and defeating the Flame Female Fire Dragon, he decided to leave the village that would imprison him for the rest of his life and go out into the wider world.

And then, it's just a constant hunt, a constant getaway...

During this time, he met many people who gave Kida the joy of life: Bell, the giant crossbow hunter, Elusa, the head of the Knights...

Where does that powerful heart come from?
