??<strong>Take off your equipment and I’ll spare you</strong>


    <em>S-Silver Dragon?</em>


    Belus was a bit stunned as he dumbfoundedly looked at the ck dragon’s armor-like scales as it entirely covered Meryer’s body and skull.


    …<em>This ck dragon, could it be that it’s insane? Did its head got some loose screw of something? </em>


    Furthermore, a ck dragon promoting justice? And…it even said that it personally knows a true god?


    Eternal lord above, why this is the biggest joke he has ever heard!


    Based on its size, this young dragon would only be around no more than three hundred years old at most. What a load of bullsh*t, how can it meet a true god when there hasn’t been a single deity that descended into the mortal world for more than a thousand years now.


    Moreover, how could a true god be interested in a young dragon? One has to be at least a legendary dragon, in order to gain some bit of attention from the gods, right?


    Also this dragon even ims that a god has provided it some messengers to attend to its needs…


    <em>Ha ha.</em>


    As far as he knew, most messengers of a true god have arrogant disposition, how could they possibly stoop to serve someone much less a fledgling dragon?


    <em>Who does it think it is?</em>


    Nidhogg, the Dragon of Despair?


    As expected of a ck dragon, the most despicable and shameless of all colored dragons, it doesn’t even bat an eye despite telling utterly oundish lies.


    Belus let out a coldugh.


    However, he also knew they really had no way to contend against this ck dragon considering the overall strength of their caravan.


    This time, they didn’t bring enough experts. If they had really fought, then it would have been obvious that their side would have been defeated.


    Belus looked deeply at Meryer and suppressed his anger.


    “We can give up all our goods and leave this ce, but Lord Dragon, you should not push us too far. Otherwise, I will have my men destroy all the goods…including those captured elves!”


    “You dare threaten me!?”


    Meryer’s face suddenly turned dark.


    Hearing the ck dragon’s unfriendly voice, the yers in the live broadcast room alsoughed.


    “Haha, how silly…he even dared to threaten ckie.”


    “Does this stupid guy know what ckie hates the most? Its being threatened. Meryer’s just a simpleton but he can be obstinate at times as well.”


    “It’s done, rest in peace man. Let’s give this old mage a funeral in advance.”


    “If the ck Dragon attacks, won’t his dragon breath destroy all the equipments?”


    “Listen guys, can’t we just pretend to agree with them first? Promise them something and then turn on them after we get what we want…?”


    “I agree. Let’s just stab them in the back! It’s even better if we can trick them out of their equipment! It will also weaken their overall strength.”


    “That’s not a bad idea, plus I heard that this mission’s rewards doesn’t include any extra lives at all. If someone dies, the our side will be at a loss.”


    “Pfft… Does Salty Cat even cares about a few loss of contribution points?”


    “Well she probably won’t, but what about everyone else?”


    “You guys are looking much into it. What if that caravan leader doesn’t believe it in the first ce?”


    “Idiot! Let Salty Cat do the talking instead! The ck Dragon’s reputation might not be credible enough, but what about the elves?”


    “Why…you guys are so devious!”


    “How is this devious? It’s strategy! It’s tactics! We’re yers, after all!”


    Little Salty Cat’s eyes flickered with an idea as she watched the barrage ofments within the live chat.


    “Hey, Meryer! Listen…”


    She suddenly leaned in close to the ck Dragon’s ear and whispered a few words in a low tone.


    Belus saw that after the elf whispered a few words, the ck Dragon’s eyes brightened slightly, and his expression no longer looked so angry.


    This made him even more curious.


    What was the rtionship between this elf and the ck Dragon?


    However, he gradually realized that the ck Dragon was not actually the superior one, but was probably the female elf instead!


    Perhaps she was not the leader, but she could indeed influence the ck Dragon’s decision!


    What was going on with this ck Dragon?


    Could it be that the elf had tamed it?


    <em>This…can’t be right?</em>


    Belus became more and more confused.


    However, since he discovered that the ck Dragon was influenced by the elf, his worries somewhat dissipated.


    Because elves would never annihte their enemiespletely!


    He believed that as long as their side met any of the elf’s conditions, the female elf would then convince the ck Dragon to let them go!


    If they suffered losses then it can’t be help if they suffered any losses. But they would find a way to make up for itter on!


    At this moment, Belus also heard the voice of the ck dragon once again.


    “Alright then! This Lord has changed his mind, so our previous deal doesn’t count anymore!”


    “You don’t need to cut off your hands anymore but instead, just give me all your treasures and the captive elves, plus you must hand over all your weapons and equipment as well! Hmm…you only have one chance!”


    Belus “……”


    This dragon actually wants their equipments!


    This greedy and evil bastard!


    He red angrily at Meryer.


    The ck dragon also stared back withoutpromise.


    “This lord has a bad temper! I repeat, you only have one chance! Hmm, this the deal my elf friend decided on!”


    After a moment, Belus reluctantly gave in and said in a conflicted tone, “Alright…we’ll do it!”


    While saying this, Belus didn’t look at the ck dragon, but instead at the female elf.


    The silver-ranked ck dragon’s strength was really something they couldn’t contend right now.


    However, this cunning ck dragon was not trustworthy at all…


    But it’s a different story if it’s a deal made by the elf since these long eared folks are faithful and kind. They do what they say they will do!


    Thinking of this, Belus breathed a sigh of relief.


    Luckily…


    Luckily, this ck dragon had an elfpanion!


    If it was really a crazy young ck dragon, then their caravan would probably have been already wiped out by now…


    Although he didn’t know how they got together, it seemed that this elf could still influence the ck dragon to some extent…


    Actually, it now made sense.


    Only when influenced by an elf would this ck dragon talk about pursuing justice, right?


    They would be safe just as long as they got the promise from the elf.


    It seems…after returning this time, they should report to the higher-ups and equip the caravan with some more experts to counter stronger threats.


    <em>This setback, let’s take it as a lesson.</em>


    He, Belus, will definitely get his revenge!


    Little Salty Cat was momentarily puzzled as she caught Belus’ pointed gaze.


    However, Little Salty Cat quickly understood and her eyes rolled before saying with a smile,


    “Yes, we’ll do as we promised!”


    Upon hearing the elf’s promise, Belus eased his demeanor.


    He gave a deep nce at the ck Dragon and signaled the other members of the caravan and mercenaries to start removing their equipments…


    This time, Belus made a note of it but sooner orter, he made a vow to himself that he would make the ck Dragon and the elf pay for this humiliation!


    The yers in the live stream were stunned as they watched every humans in the caravan began removing their equipments.


    “What the…they’re really taking off their gears…”


    “Lmao Did Salty Cat read this idea? I can’t believe it actually worked!”


    “Hahaha…these human NPCs are so honest. They actually took off their equipments!”


    “What happened to their intelligence? Did it got nerfed lmao?”


    “Are they stupid? How can they have any strength left without their equipments?”


    “The intelligence of these NPCs is too low! One star review!”


    “They believed in verbal promises? If it were me, I would demand a sworn oath to the true god!”


    “Haha…How can they swear? you forgot, in his eyes, the elven race no longer has a patron god.”


    “Whether they take off their gear or not doesn’t matter right? They’ll all be killed by the ck Dragon in the end anyway…”


    “Rofl, he actually believed what Salty Cat said!”


    “Because we are elves after all!”


    “I didn’t realize that the credibility of the elves was so high! The NPCs will believe whatever they say…”


    “You’re only realizing that now? It’s always been like this you know! After all, it’s a character setting included in the game’s lore!”


    “Hmmm…when you say it like that, I suddenly thought of some bold ideas…what if we go to every human towns and abuse this exploit…”


    “Oh shiet, eh heh heh heh…..”


    “Eh heh heh heh heh……xD”


    “( ?° ?? ?°)”


    “Come on guys! We should stop disgracing the reputation of the Elves!”


    “Forget it! Don’t embarrass the elven race anymore!”


    The live stream was filled with cheerful vibes.
