Overgeared

Chapter 1817

“From now on, we are companions.”

[Evil Dragon Bunhelier’s Dragon Words have set a new law in the world.]

Companions—it was a relationship where they had to trust and rely on each other. At the very least, it meant to not be hostile.

The new law established by Bunhelier was unconditionally beneficial to Grid, just like the epics that rose and fell through the mouths of people even at this moment.

[Evil Dragon Bunhelier won’t antagonize you and humanity.]

“Of course, there is the premise that you don’t betray me.”

Bunhelier himself looked even more perplexed after Dragon Words was triggered. He hurriedly added a way to escape. It was to prevent situations where he could become powerless. However, it was more of an attitude that nailed in the fact that he wouldn’t betray Grid first.

“What does ‘we’ mean?” Biban asked on behalf of the flustered Grid.

“To be companions means… it isn’t a relationship that can be made because one side wants it unilaterally.”

“I know. We need to be able to trust each other.”

Bunhelier fully understood Grid’s position. He even nodded and responded to Biban, who pointed out his attitude. He was very confident.

“So there is no problem. I have given you enough trust. Do you think there is anything in the world that is more reliable than Dragon Words?”

“......”

“......”

Both Grid and Biban couldn’t refute it. They couldn’t provide any reasons for doubting it even when recalling the fact that the other being was Evil Dragon Bunhelier, who had betrayed even his own kind. It was purely the power of Dragon Words.

Bunhelier was relieved at heart. He recalled the conversation that Grid had with the daughter of the Insane Dragon the other day.

“It is true that I worked together with Bunhelier, but we didn’t become friends. So let’s kill him together later. Huh?’

Looking back, he was dumbfounded. Saying to kill him in front of him. It was even directly after they had just joined forces to overcome a crisis.

‘He is a twisted guy.’

Grid was somewhat crazy from the perspective of an Old Dragon, who wasn’t bound by common sense. He didn’t want to get involved with Grid. If it wasn’t for Baal, Bunhelier would’ve tried to never run into him again. However, Bunhelier had to defeat Baal. Even if he was reluctant, he had to cooperate with Grid.

Then he had a justification. It was the justification that humans were rapidly becoming stronger.

Bunhelier decided to take advantage of this opportunity. He decided that he would rather have Grid, who would one day be a threat, as an ally. He had faith that Grid wouldn’t be able to resist.

Surprisingly, Grid hesitated. He didn’t answer hastily. Naturally, Nefelina was on his mind.
