Sacrifice: Time of Mine

Chapter 190: Poor Dragon

My name is Freniard Danhan, a proud Rank Ey Elementalist from the Danhan Family.

Currently, I am the one who is chosen to be an envoy to a backwater island in nowhere, trying to tie themselves to us, the Danhans!

I am told by the king to listen to these weak families to learn of their offerings. The king is truly wise. There is no way for the Royal Families within Haliviana to have no treasures.

They are left ignored for so many years and there should be some hidden treasures among them.

Although we have placed some spies there a long time ago, we quickly lost interest. At least that's what our predecessors said. It takes too much effort and resources to move an army overseas just to conquer this little island.

There's too little reward upon success. But now, since they initiated contact and wanted to enter an alliance, they should have something good to offer!

Moving an entire army to conquer that poor country is too pricey, but how about moving a single person? Hehehehe... we don't need their resources anyway, our lands and seas are richer. I just have to threaten and trick them a little. Not that they could do anything even if they figured out that they were being played and fight back.

Four Rank Bih Kings? Hehehehe! This is going to be so much fun!

I haven't had a good vacation for decades. Once I got there, I'm going to enjoy myself to the fullest. I heard they have a beautiful princess. It has been so long since I have tasted a double-digit-aged woman, especially when that number starts with 1!

Hehehehe! I can't wait!-

And that... was my initial dumb plan earlier. I can't believe I was so happy at that time.

"Freniard, so you're saying that this small island is trying to ally themselves to you... hmm... uninteresting..."

"Yes, Benevolent Sir!" I quivered in fright. How many years has it been since I stoop so low? When I reached Rank Ey, even the king and queen don't have the power to even raise their voice at me, much less making me kneel.

"I have already said everything so, Sir Gamon, could you please remove the blade on my back now please?" I continued to plead.

"What? Did you say something?"

"No-nothing, sir." this old man! I will fucking kill you... once I somehow reach Rank Es which I will never will so curse you! Curse this life! How dare you do this to me!?

Even if you're so strong and so awesome for having five Rank Es Elements, could you not do this to me!?

I haven't done anything wrong! The world is so unfair! I have yet to even look at Royal Thighs and now you are doing this to me!? So unfair!

"But more importantly," another old man spoke. I knew this old man, this is the Might of Torge, Old Maytan, a Rank Es World Elementalist! So cool! Damn!

"We heard that one of the kingdoms there have caught a Scarfar, you know, that Rank Bih Water Elemental Beast, is this true?"

"Yes, Sir Maytan..."

"Oh, hear that, Cojier? You will finally able to eat a Scarfar again!"

"Grr... woof!"

Holy shit... 

That's the Prismatic Three-Tailed Wolf... holy shit. I'm done for.

But what's this?

I'm somehow feeling pride. I am doomed but the idea of being killed by legendary characters fills me with pride instead.

"What are you frowning for? Don't fear, Freniard, we are not here to kill you or do anything bad to you."

Old Maytan is said to be very kind, patient, and an old man that is greatly inclined to the side of justice! I think they are right.

However, if I may raise my voice, there's a fucking blade straight through my gut!

"Not here to do anything bad to you" my ass!

The suspect, Penta Elementalist Gamon is there, trying to teach his disciples as if he did not embedded me on this stone!

Where even are we!?

I just remembered that while I was traveling I saw a dragon... hahaha, I am not kidding you, a dragon hurling towards me! I was scared shitless and then I woke up now with the dragon gone but with several legendary Rank Es Elementalists surrounding me!

"Identify yourselves!"

Eh? What's that? I looked and saw that there are ships seemingly patrolling around. Behind them was a town and further ahead was a castle. Compared to the castle back in the Danhan Kingdom, this castle looks too poor.

Even my bedroom is bigger than this! Okay, just kidding... I need a distraction from the pain I'm feeling from my gut. Although I'm an old monster to others, have you experienced the Penta-Elementalist himself pierced a blade, conjured from five elements, through your back? No? Then let me whine more!

While I was feeling my gut, that was when I felt something fall upon me...

This... I shivered and even pissed myself. A Rank Ey Elementalist p-pissing himself... That was ridiculous, b-but I couldn't think straight to even feel shame at that time...

It felt like a world was dropped on top of me.

"Identify yourselves!"

Hm?

These idiots!

These legendary Rank Es Elementalists are trying to be composed and cool by only showing their aura but it seemed like you're too weak to even feel it!

I'm sure of it because I have done this a thousand times already and its your cue to be face-slapped before fainting!

"If you do not identify yourselves, we will have no choice but to..!"

Urgh! Stop! I think... I'm going to puke blood! Take a fucking hint!

"You leave us with no choice but to choose another option! If you don't want to identify yourselves, we have to resort to questioning!"

"Who are you!?"

Can't you see the wolf there!? It has three tails that are glowing in different lights! Does nothing goes in your head when you this monster!?

I'm just a Rank Ey Elementalist and I'm already so proud that I don't talk to Rank Dih weaklings and below. These seniors must be more proud than that! So please, take a hint!

"My name is Dragonian Sheran."

Finally, someone talked! But erhmm... who?

I know the Might of Torge, the Penta Elementalist, and the Three-Tailed Prismatic Wolf. Dragonian? Is she perhaps the dragon earlier?

"Okay, who are the others?"

Woah, there. No respect?

"Why don't you have no respect for Dragonian Sheran?!" her butler said my thoughts.

"But I don't know who she is. Who's the others?"

Eh? Did the Dragonian dropped her head? But don't they know what a Dragonian is? Even if they evolved from lizards, they still can transform into a dragon!

Maybe these people are far from civilization and know nothing about the world.

"Show respect, mortals, besides the Great Dragonian Shera are the Might of Torge-"

"T-the Might of Torge!?... Eek! I am so sorry! M-men, move out, give way! Give way! Hurry!"

Oh...

Poor dragon...
