"My name is Danos. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

The lich looked up at his temporary companion, the young red dragon was unexpectedly generous, he had been given an assistant as the leader of the dragon thorns, but this was not something to be happy about, when a red dragon was unusually merciful, it might be equating you with a dead man: "I know your name. The former immortal said that after reciting the name several times in his consciousness in lingua franca, dragon, elven, and abyssal language: "In the abyss this means red," and the lich said, "Have you inherited the blood of the devil or the devil?" He turned to look at Danos, who was as thin and slender, like many thieves, with an evil but charismatic face like most Grenadas, and this was the first time he had shown such a clear face to another person, who might have some kind of magical paraphernalia to obscure himself, the lich thought.

"I just thought we needed to get acquainted again," said Danos, and it wasn't a good thing to be sent by the Red Dragon to the side of the black-haired Dragonborn, at least as he left the Red Dragon's tent with a rather gloating smile, as it seemed that the previous events had angered the small-minded fool, and it was clear that staying neutral would be a betrayal and contempt for Kelmen: "Given that the next few days may not be so peaceful." ”

"You know?" the lich sat down behind the large desk, his hands resting on the open scroll, "I have always believed that calm, or tranquility, or order, is not what a Grenada wants to see, we love chaos, we love chaos, we love hurricanes, rainstorms, swords and fires, and death—this is a predestined thread in the thread of fate, and no one can change or correct it. ”

"I must say it was my mistake, Your Highness," Danos admitted deferentially, his eyes oozing a palpitating red as they lost their disguise, perhaps from which his name came from: "I just want to know ......"

"It's a dangerous, and possibly deadly, path," said the lich, "and we can't say what it will be." ”

"Now that you know ......"

"What do you think I should do?"

"We know, Your Highness, that you are very fond of Gredi," said Danos, "if you will—I have a lover, and she is one of Gredi's priests, and this time she is among the dozens of priests, and she has her own ...... Friend, they are more than willing to serve you, of course, with a small reward, and nothing can keep people silent more than profit, you say?"

"Will the priests call Gredy for me?"

"A secret sacrifice," said Danos, "I know that you have some slaves in your hands, if you wish to ......"

"I don't want to. ”

The lich's words immediately blocked all of Danos's next words in his throat, and the black-haired dragonborn glanced at the dragonthorn's acting leader with interest, just one glance, Danos's mouth stinged, he did not inherit much demonic blood, but there were two dominant inheritances, one was his eyes, and the other was his teeth- His teeth, when usually and deliberately concealed, were just like human teeth, except for being smaller, but when the need arose, shark-like triangular serrated teeth would emerge from the gums and instantly replace the harmless ones—at times, they had helped Danos a lot, but now, when faced with a warlock, possibly a mage's dragonborn, the change was not decisive.

He tried to control it, but the black-haired dragonborn threw too much force at him, and he tensed up, then grabbed the chair and slowly knelt down to avoid his spine snapping.

"The teeth of the seducer. The lich whispered, "You need not be so afraid, I mean, I don't think your wisdom and ability are too bad to escape, if only you." ”

"I'll be punished. Danos said in a lower voice, "I confess that I am not only for you, but also for myself, and that is a trap from which there is no return." ”

"Whatever it is," said the lich, "but you should not forget that I am also a Grenada." I am a descendant of Gredi, and am favored by her, that is to say, I cannot disgrace her, or Gredy's wrath will immediately be thrown upon me like thunder—as you have suggested before, I ask the priests to call her, but bring her neither victory, nor glory, nor anything that can glorify her, but a ridiculous refusal to serve her legions and daughters, what do you think our 'mother' thinks? The part of your body that belongs to the Red Dragon is so meager, but you know it, right?"

"I'm just ......"

"It's a lie that will keep you safe no matter what, I mean, if Gredy tolerates me, then we don't have to leave, and if Gredy decides to take back her favor, then her daughter doesn't have to go to such trouble for me to die. Anyway, you can continue to curl up under the priest's robe and enjoy your meanness and cunning. ”

Danos looked up, his teeth fully exposed, his lips split to the sides, his eyes filled with fear and resentment.

The lich just smiled, "Yes, it's you," he tapped his finger on the scroll, "There's something you may not know," he said, "I wanted to decline the reward, because I didn't want to have a cumbersome dagger from the back, but I didn't expect your reaction to be so fast." So I thought it would be nice to have a companion as interesting as you would be in the course of what was bound to be very boring, so I decided, Danos, that you have the night to prepare, and that we would set off when the first rays of morning light fell on the tower. ”

"I'm willing to ......"

"What?"

"I ...... I would like to play for you," said Danos, "please ......"

"Then let me see your loyalty," said the lich, "don't be too pessimistic, child. ”

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

After Danos left, the silence in the tent was broken by a loud clapping, and the little devil flew into the air with its wings, clapping with its paws.

"Wonderful! wonderful!" said it, as if it were a croak, "and it is a croak!" and it said flatteringly, "Below the bottomless abyss, may the poor idiot break his neck! Thy strength and wisdom are infallible, my respectable master, and he thought that such a clumsy trick would cover thy eyes." ”

"A lot of people think I'm cowardly, mild-mannered and indecisive. Said the lich.

"But you're not," said the little devil slyly, "aren't you?"

The lich stared quietly at the little devil for a moment, and when the little devil's hair stood on end and tried to escape, the silver rope that should have been cursed a million times pulled it back, and then carried it between the slender fingers of the black-haired dragonborn.

The little devil wailed silently.

Compared to Danos, who thought too much, the lich's mood could be described as calm and even a little indescribable joy, he had not indulged himself in a long time - there was no doubt that the man summoned by the evil red dragon would never be a pure and innocent baby.
