Episode 38 30,000 Leagues in Search of a Dragon (3)
Ten days after that.
As the sun was setting, a snow wagon crossed the plain.
The sun disappeared beyond the horizon and darkness descended rapidly.
At the same time, the speed of the snow carriage gradually decreased.
The carriage, which had been moving along for a while, stopped and Fabro, the coachman and janitor, spoke into the carriage.
“I think we’ll have to camp here today.”
“Let’s do that.”
When the carriage came to a complete stop, Lois jumped out.
He smiled happily as he saw Fabro starting to prepare for camp as soon as the carriage stopped.
‘I chose a guardian very well.’
Fabro, who had spent his entire life on the winter continent, was quite familiar with the geography.
In addition, he was very dexterous, so even if the carriage broke down, he could fix it quickly, and he was a quick cook and even caught game with ease.
It was like that today too.
“Then I will prepare a meal.”
After setting up a tent and a place to sleep in a short time, Fabro made a bonfire and started cooking the animals he had caught.
Sizzling-
The five rabbits we caught on the move were cooked deliciously.
“wow… … .”
“Wow wow…” … .”
The twins, who had already woken up, squatted near the bonfire and looked at the rabbit meat being cooked.
“Dwarf, when will this ripen?”
“When does it end?”
“It will be over soon.”
At the guys’ urging, Fabro took out salt and pepper from his pocket and started sprinkling it on the rabbit meat.
As the fragrant scent rose, saliva flowed from the twins’ mouths.
Lois and the twins’ staple food was spiritual medicine.
Until he became Jackie Chan, he had to live with an elixir.
To them, regular food was just like a kind of snack.
The problem was that the twins had developed a greater taste for snacks these days.
Lois smiled.
‘Well, even if it’s called an elixir, if you look at it, it’s just like a zen meal… … .’
If something that is good for your body tastes good, it is no different from fraud.
As soon as people started eating regular food with seasoning added, the elixir was reduced to nothing more than a nutritional supplement.
“Okay, that’s it.”
Fabro handed the twins one piece of well-cooked rabbit meat.
The fern hand quickly snatched up the rabbit meat.
Ho Ho-
The twins feast on rabbit meat with soot on their mouths.
“Lois, please eat it too.”
“thank you.”
Just as I was receiving the rabbit meat handed to me by Fabro.
“huh?”
Lois’ head turned into the darkness.
Fabro asked about his strange reaction.
“Why are you doing that?”
“Something is coming.”
Ever since she was attacked by the Blood Ax Bandits the other day, Royce has always been in a mood.
Something had caught on to Lois’s mood.
“Is it a monster?”
Favreau picked up the war hammer he had placed next to him.
Snow horses were animals that were quite sensitive to energy.
In order to use the snow carriage, Lois and the twins had to hide their dragon-like energy.
Because of this, I was often attacked by monsters.
Of course, Fabreau had to suffer every time.
Lois shook her head as she looked at Favreau with a hard face.
“No, it’s a person. Alone. There’s still quite a distance… This is roughly 500 meters. But it’s coming this way… … .”
At Lois’ words, Fabro’s face was filled with admiration.
‘also… Is it a dragon… … .’
Royce so easily noticed something that even she, a tier 3 warrior, couldn’t notice.
And that was from over 500 meters away.
Since this kind of thing had been common for some time, Fabreau completely trusted Lois’ words.
After relaying the information to Favreau, Lois sat down next to the twins and nibbled on rabbit meat.
Seeing that nonchalant look, Fabro also put down the hammer and began tearing off the meat.
It seemed as if nothing had happened, but Favreau’s hammer was ready to move at any time.
How long has it been like that?
By the time the twins had almost finished eating the rabbit, Fabbro was about to tear into the second piece of meat.

Footsteps were heard in the darkness.
The eyes of Lois and the others turned, and Finn quickly hid himself under Lois’ clothes.
“Who is there!”
Favreau raised his hammer as if he had finally figured it out.
In the light of the bonfire, the hammer’s iron pieces shimmered orange.
A moment later, a figure wearing a flowing black robe appeared from the darkness.
Inyoung looks around the bonfire and pauses.
A voice came out from within the robe.
“You don’t have to be so alert.”
Inyoung came closer to the bonfire and pulled back her hood.
Then a blonde young man appeared.
The young man slightly lowered his head when he saw Fabro and the three children not letting down their guard.
“I am a traveler passing in this direction. I saw a light and came to see it despite my rudeness. “Could you please borrow some fire and warmth?”
Fabreau looked the self-proclaimed traveler up and down.
A robe worn out by a long journey.
However, the exposed head, hands, and clothes underneath were fairly clean.
His face was also clean, so he didn’t look like he had been traveling for a long time, and his unusually good-natured appearance was noticeable.
The traveler said with a small sigh as he looked at him with suspicion.
“My name is Jacob Trugan. “I am a silver-level mercenary.”
As he said that, he took out a silver card from his pocket and showed it.
The explanation was that his identity was certain, but Fabbro was adamant.
“I’m sorry. There are three young children here now… … .”
On the surface, Fabbro, who had to protect the children if something were to happen, was at a disadvantage.
Jacob seemed to understand this and nodded with an awkward expression.
“this… All right. Excuse me for being late. Then I’ll just… … .”
As he was about to leave, Lois was deep in thought.
‘Jacob Trugan?’
The moment I heard that name, I was struck by a strange sense of déjà vu.
Jacob Trugan.
It was a name that seemed somewhat familiar.
‘Did I know this name?’
Lightning struck Lois’s head as she continued to think intently.
‘Trugun… … ? ah! Trugun?!’
The name Jacob was not familiar to Lois.
His last name is ‘Trugan.’
That was the problem.
Lois urgently sent a message to Fabreau.
[Catch it with Fab!]
‘… … ?’
Fabro’s eyes ask what that means.
Lois sent out a message again.
[Get Jacob Trugan!]
“ah… … !”
Only then did Fabro, who understood Lois’ words, shout loudly.
“Now, wait a moment.”
“huh?”
Jacob, who had just taken a couple of steps, turned his back.
Fabro cleared his throat as he looked at him as if asking what was going on.
“greatness… Well, not so… I don’t think he’s a bad person… “Stay for a day or so.”
“ah… thank you!”
Jacob smiled broadly and expressed his gratitude.
I had no idea that he was approaching with light steps.
That there are eyes staring intently at one’s face.
‘Look at this?’
The corners of Lois’ mouth twitched slightly as she looked at Jacob’s bright face.
The person Lois knew with the last name Trugan was not Jacob.
Also, she was a woman, not a man.
‘Lavina Trugan.’
The owner of the Phantom Beast Gwangnoeho and a genius druid.
One of the warriors’ party who, in the distant future, together with the main character of the original work, take down the light dragon Generoker.
Her last name was Trugan.
Remembering this, Lois glanced at Jacob who came near the bonfire.
Jacob asked with a slight smile at the gaze looking at him.
“Why?”
“Are you alone?”
“uh?”
“Is there anyone else with you?”
“uh? uh… Yeah, that’s right. “I came alone.”
“and! You seem to have good skills! “Travel alone!”
“haha! yes!”
Jacob was flattered by Lois’ praise.
He said with a chuckle.
“I’m alone, but… “You’re not alone.”
“What do you mean?”
“What?”
“What?”
Before we knew it, the twins were on either side of Lois and were staring at Jacob with interest.
Jacob’s smile deepened as he saw the children’s innocent eyes.
“ha ha ha. “That’s it.”
Hwiik-
Jacob held his lips and made a long whistle sound.
At that moment, Lois could clearly feel it.
‘It is a mental attribute power.’
Although Jacob’s whistle was faint, it contained spiritual mana.
Hwii-
The sound of a whistle ringing in the dark night sky.
Soon something began to fall quickly from the sky.
Huh huh huh-
The bonfire stirred with the sound of huge wings flapping.
What appeared in the light of the bonfire was a huge bird.
Height exceeds 3m and has 3 pairs of wings.
It was a huge eagle with long dark red tail feathers.
Fabro picked up the hammer at the appearance of a 3m bird of prey.
Jacob waved his hand towards Fabro.
“it’s okay. “This is the child I take care of.”
However, Fabro’s vigilance would not be relaxed easily.
Because he knew the identity of the eagle with six wings.
“… Isn’t it the Six Wings and Blood Tribe? How on earth can that guy… … ?”
Six wings and blood ancestors.
It was an eagle with six wings.
Although it was not a monster, it was a ferocious beast that could fight a wyvern one-on-one when fully grown, and as its name had the word blood in it, it was a vicious beast.
Moreover, judging from its size, the six-winged blood bird in front of me was a fully grown adult.
Therefore, we naturally had no choice but to be cautious.
Jacob smiled as if he understood Fabro.
“it’s okay. This is the child I raised since he was a cub. You don’t have to worry because he follows my orders very well. “As long as you don’t touch it too hastily, I guarantee it will never attack first.”
“… Are you a druid?”
“That’s right.”
Jacob nodded to Fabro’s question.
Druid.
It was a branch of the Holy Law faction that used mental attribute powers to tame beasts or worse.
When Jacob admitted that he was a druid, a look crossed Lois’s face.
‘I think it’s really true?’
A druid who goes by the name Trugun.
I don’t know if it was just one condition, but two things were already meeting.
‘If this is really the ancestor of Ravina Trugan… … .’
In that case, Jacob shouldn’t have been sent back like this.
Ravina Trugan was a potential threat to Generoker’s life in the future.
Although he said that many things had changed due to his possession, it was better to eliminate any potential risks in advance.
Lois asked, looking at Jacob with a sullen expression.
“Uncle Jacob.”
“huh? Why?”
“Are you married?”
Jacob, embarrassed by Lois’ unexpected question, slightly shook his head and answered.
“Hey, getting married? “Not yet.”
“What about your lover?”
“My fiancé… “It doesn’t exist.”
“Then I guess you don’t have any children?”
“Ah, I guess so… ji?”
“Do you have any brothers, sisters, or sisters?”
“He is an only son… … .”
“Are there many people with the last name Trugan? “Something like collateral?”
“uh… hmm… “As far as I know, my father and I are the only ones with the last name Trugan?”
“hmm… “That’s right.”
“Why is that suddenly… … ?”
“Hehe, just like that. “I’m curious.”
“… … ?”
Royce ignores the unexpected census with a cute smile.
Contrary to his bright face, his insides were dark.
‘What should we do with this guy?’
How to eliminate Jacob as a potential danger.
Many things came to mind, but the best way was to kill Jacob or… … .
‘Shall I make you a eunuch?’
If Jacob doesn’t see his offspring, the future Ravina will never be born.
It just so happens that he is an only son and has no collateral blood relatives.
Could it be that Royce’s murderous heart was conveyed?
“Uh huh. “It’s cold.”
Jacob, feeling an inexplicable chill, shivered and clung to the campfire.
