�W, what is that?�

The snake�s tail that was covered in red scales. He could see the cracked bell at the tip of the tail.

�That�s where Cale just threw his water spear!�

The Mercenary King�s gaze quickly turned toward Cale. Cale raised his head and looked up.

The shriek had come from above.
He saw the fog-covered forest. Cale then found the large snake�s head that was looking down at him through the fog. The eyes that were as red as the scales looked ready to gobble Cale up.
The snake opened its mouth at that moment.

Screeeeeeeech-!

Bud covered his plugged ears with his hands as well.

�Ugh!�

He turned pale as well.
His body had curled up on its own after hearing that loud screech.

�What is this? Why am I acting like this?�

He didn�t need to think about it for a long time.

�I�m scared.�

He felt fear for some odd reason after hearing that noise.

Mercenary King Bud was not the only one who felt this way.

�Ugh! I�ve, n, never heard this noise before��!�
�Ugh.�

Bobe curled up his body while shaking and the Dragon half-blood was barely still standing.
On and Hong jumped back into Beacrox�s arms as they shook in fear.
Cale started to frown as he watched this happen.

� H, human! I, I�m a bit scared too! I�m scared even though I�m a great and mighty Dragon!

�Damn it.�

After he heard their youngest, Raon�s voice, Cale tried to activate an ancient power in his body again.

�I�m scared.�

He was scared as well. JrNovels.com
