Ancient Dragon Eruhaben was quietly standing on the walls of the Caro Kingdom's Dubori territory while looking forward.

The soldiers could only peek at him but could not approach him. It was because he was giving off a presence that made it hard to approach.

Shhh.

Eruhaben hair fluttered in the wind.

The wind that had been blowing from the sea to the land during the day and changed direction from land to sea as soon as midnight passed and a new day began.

‘Eruhaben-nim.’

Dark Elf Tasha had explained to him about this sudden change in the wind when she snuck out in the afternoon to see him.

‘The wind always blows from land to sea when the dead mana smoke is rising in the desert.’

That was why it was rare for the dead mana smoke that started at the center of the desert to reach the Dubori territory.

‘Furthermore, the Dark Elves also have members who use Wind Elementals and mages to make the wind stronger in order to be careful about any potential changes.’

Eruhaben had thought that the Dark Elves were very nice when he heard that.

The Dark Elves were living underground as they were hiding from humans and other races who tried to kill them.

But according to Tasha, they had worked hard for a long time to make sure the dead mana smoke didn't reach the Dubori territory.

‘That is not the case. Eruhaben-nim, this is not for the Dubori territory nor the humans. It would be bad if the secret of the desert was revealed and the Caro Kingdom ends up finding us while investigating it. We did it because we were afraid we would lose our home.’

Tasha was saying that it was not for the other living beings, but the fact that there were humans living happily in the Underground City showed that the Dark Elves were generous beings.

“Leader-nim.”

He turned his head after hearing a voice.

Shaman Gashan, the chief of the Tiger tribe, smiled while looking at Eruhaben.

Gashan could not call Eruhaben by name nor call him Dragon-nim right now, so he was temporarily calling him leader. Eruhaben slightly bowed to the person he saw once Gashan took a step to the side.

Crown prince Valentino was standing behind Gashan. Behind him were some of the nearby territory lords with stronger forces.

“How dare he in front of his highness! This, that arrogant-!”

One of the territory lords in the crown prince's faction was starting to get angry at the fact that Eruhaben's actions were rude, but Valentino waved his hand to stop him.

“Enough.”

“Your highness! But look at the way that guy greeted you! He dares-”

“Enough.”

The noble shut his mouth at Valentino's repeated response. He knew there would be no benefit if he argued about it once more.

“I wish for all the territory lords to head down. I have something to say to him in private.”

The territory lords looked confused at Valentino’s comment but they soon bowed and headed down from the city wall.

Valentino, whose complexion had gotten significantly worse over a single day, looked toward the nobles with a tired expression before turning toward Eruhaben.

“I don’t know how to address you.”

“Whatever is easiest for you is fine, sir.”

“…Sure.”

Valentino thoroughly observed the only two members of Cale’s group that were left at this castle.

The shaman, Gashan. He treated Valentino in a very respectful and cheeky way even though he was quite old. However, Valentino could tell that Gashan was a strong individual through his gentle demeanor.

His large stature gave off a natural sense of pressure, but he had also seen how Gashan had controlled the crows in the Dubori territory. Furthermore, he could not treat him like his own subordinates after learning that he was a Tiger and expecting that he would have extreme physical strength as well.
