“Ah, has the bird transformed into a bone dragon after just a few days?” Lynn was a little surprised.
A good mount, aside from aiding in battle, was also a matter of face for its owner!
<em>Driving a Mazda, no wonder you are stuck in traffic!</em>
When going out, whether it was riding a bird, a griffin, a dragon, or an angel were all different.
Despite its appearance, the bone dragon might not match other dragons in terms of prestige, and itsbat prowess could even bepared to that of the white dragon, known as the disgrace of the dragon n. Yet, it was still ssified among the formal dragons illustrated in the wizarding bestiary, not just as a dragon beast or sub-dragon.
Even the most basic model of a BBA at least had a logo.
“This is mypanion,” the fly demon said with a hint of pride, introducing the bone dragon to Lynn.
Understanding this, Lynn knew that the bone dragon’s strength would not be significantly weaker than the fly demon’s own.
The dragon, with its yellowed bones, lowered its massive headrger than a sedan—and fixed its gaze on Lynn. In its eye sockets, a flickering blue me danced.Up close, Lynn could even see the subtle cracks in the bones and the ckened patches on its skeletal frame. The bone dragon had likely seen better days.
“Human wizard, your scent is quite sweet and appetizing,” the bone dragon spoke slowly in the demonnguage.
“Really? I’d say your bones would make a fine stew,” Lynn replied in the newly learned demonnguage.
“Hahahaha.” The bone dragon’sughter boomed arrogantly.
Suddenly, the four-armed brute force demon behind Lynn thrust out a fist and struck the bone dragon’s jaw with a powerful punch.
The bone dragon, caught off guard, crashed to the ground with a thunderous thud, its heavy body copsing a small hill behind it.
“If your brain isn’t up to par, it’s better not to use it.”
Lynn’s smile vanished as he turned his cold gaze toward the fallen bone dragon.
His right hand subtly touched the ring on his left hand.
“Fly demon, we’ve had several coborations as old friends, haven’t we? Your mount seems to be rather disobedient.” Lynn said, his eyes shifting toward the fly demon.
The fly demon’s expression changed slightly. It hadn’t expected the bone dragon to provoke Lynn suddenly.
Lynn saw through the situation. It was likely that Dyo—in an attempt to expand her influence—had recruited numerous subordinates, resulting in some conflicts among them. The bone dragon belonged to one such faction, and its proximity to the fly demon had been intentional.
The demons of the Abyss had limited intelligence, and their attempts to approach the fly demon and disrupt its rtionships were likely the extent of their cunning.
The bone dragon rose from the ground, letting out an enraged roar.
The four-armed brute force demon remained unfazed, stepping forward with a fierce re directed at the bone dragon.
The fly demon, head lowered, had its two antennae twitching uncontrobly, a clear sign of its current emotional instability.
<em>Boom!!</em>
Suddenly, the fly demon exploded, transforming into countless tiny ck specks.
Each speck was a flying insect, unlike any fly Lynn had seen before. These wererge, about the size of a broad bean, with menacing mandibles and four hook-like ws covered in barbs.
The flies swirled in the air, sometimes converging and sometimes scattering, creating a ck storm.
In the next moment, the ck storm surged toward the bone dragon.
The bone dragon emitted a mournful wail as intense energy gathered in its open maw. Lynn rapidly retreated, thankful that the bone dragon, preupied with the iing attack, had little attention to spare. The bone dragon’s head tilted skyward, releasing a st of frost breath. The torrent of frost spewed forth like a methrower, freezing all the flies before them into solid blocks of ice, which then shattered as they fell to the ground.
“Take this.” Lynn handed arge battle axe to the four-armed brute force demon. Considering that the weapon was intended for a demon, it had been scaled up significantly, so even thergest size would be manageable for the four-armed brute force demon.
The brute force demon grasped the axe firmly and charged forward, single-handedly grabbing the bone dragon’s head and forcefully mming it to the ground.
The bone dragon’s head struck the earth with a resounding impact. Its skeletal frame began to emit magical fluctuations, attempting to cast a spell. However, a thinyer of ck mist appeared over each of the countless flies covering its bones, halting the emerging magical fluctuations.
The magical fluctuations abruptly ceased, and the cold, metallic de of the axe descended heavily along the bone dragon’s neck.
The bone connecting the dragon’s head and neck fractured abruptly.
Even without its head, the bone dragon did not perish immediately. The headless dragon’s front ws dug into the ground, leaving deep gouges as it tried to grasp its lost head. The four-armed brute force demon intervened, engaging in a fierce battle with the headless dragon’s body.
It was not until half an hourter that the dragon’s severed head finally dimmed, its soul mepletely extinguished.
With a final thud, the headless dragon’s body copsed to the ground.
The dragon’s skeletal body was covered in awork of axe marks,rge and small.
Countless ck specks, previously gathered as flies, reassembled into the fly demon. However, the fly demon’s aura was noticeably weaker than before.
“Forgive me for the inconvenience,” the fly demon said. “Consider this carcass as my apology.”
“I don’t think I need to test the quality of these weapons any further. I am quite pleased.” Looking at the weapon in the four-armed brute force demon’s hands, the fly demon nodded with satisfaction.
The quality was evident. If the weapons could slice through the bones of a bone dragon, their craftsmanship was unquestionably superb. They were top-tier, no doubt about it.
The previous batch of weapons had been subpar, almost like toys. Yet now, Lynn had provided such high-quality weapons, even considering the size requirements for demons.
The fly demon’s attitude toward Lynn, as a business partner, had significantly improved.
“Did you bring the ores?” Lynn asked.
“Ah?” The fly demon appeared confused. What ores?
Wasn’t this batch of weapons supposed to settle Lynn’s debt from the previous transaction?
“Ah, right. Here’s the contract. Please sign it,” Lynn said, producing the trade contract for the fly demon to sign.
“We agreed on a 50-50 split for the crafted weapons. I’ve already used half of the ores you provided. Thepleted weapons are here. Does that mean the remaining ores are mine?”
“Indeed, they are yours,” the fly demon confirmed with a nod. This had been agreed upon in advance.
Moreover, the quality of the weapons Lynn had provided was undoubtedly satisfactory.
“That’s right. So, our transaction is alreadyplete. Of course, I have my people forging weapons with the remaining ores, but the ores consumption is rapid. Without ores, the work there wille to a halt,” Lynn said, spreading his hands.
“I didn’t bring any ores,” the fly demon shook its head.
The ores it had broughtst time were all handed over to Lynn, and it had not received any weapons in return, so it was impossible to bring ores for this transaction.
“But can you handle so many weapons?” Lynn inquired. “The efficiency of weapon crafting is only going to improve.”
“Don’t worry, I can handle more,” the fly demon assured, then paused, “In half a month, I’ll bring the remaining ores to trade with you. By the way, do you need any demon ves?”
“If their bloodline is of a higher level, I might consider it. I don’t want any with lower bloodline quality,” Lynn replied. Demons with inferior bloodlines were merely cannon fodder, and his own ranks of cannon fodder were already sufficient.
