Chapter 414 Hilarous Small People
"Yeah, I am an Ancient Dragon." Lucifer said without even caring much anymore.
Unlike the annoying Humans, Dwarves seemed to be well knowledgeable about the dragons, especially the Ancient ones, and seemed to suddenly open their eyes in surprise, without feeling fear anymore, when Lucifer proclaimed himself as one.
"Woooah… Not only you\'ve brought us Baldur and Balladur back, but you\'ve brought visitors…"
"What is your wisdom, ancient dragon?"
"Please share some words of enlightenment!"
The dwarves asked some ridiculous things to Lucifer, he immediately refused to tell them anything and remained in silence, quickly turning back into his human form as I stored the seat that was wrapped around his body.
"Ah, he can even transform into a humanoid form?!"
"He\'s so tall…"
"He kind of looks like a Majin like that!"
"Can\'t you become like a lizardman?"
"This is the art of us dragons named Polymorph Magic." Said Lucifer. "And no, I won\'t turn my appearance into that of a lizardman, stop annoying me!"
Lucifer\'s roar and his menacing aura only pumped up the dwarves even more, as they seemed excited to talk with someone like him from all things. However, the twin dwarves quickly calmed them down and explained everything to them with the help of Darfu. We were also introduced by them as the saviors of the dwarves, who were all caught and turned into illegal slaves.
"Damn humans, I can\'t believe they were turned into slaves…"
"Humans really love their slaves, don\'t they?"
"They\'re scrawny and lack muscle, so they can only force others to do all the job for them! Lazy ass Beardcutters!"
"Damned humans! I remember when they tried to assault our home some years back, we beat the shit out of them, gahahahahaha!"
"They don\'t even know how to get into the mountains properly!"
"Dwarf creations are superior to their feeble magic and skills!"
The dwarves began to mock the humans. Nobody of us here was one so we didn\'t even cared much about them being racist against them in general, especially after all the shit they did to them, apparently. Nonetheless, we couldn\'t simply mock humans and not do anything else.
"You guys, can you guide us to your home? We came to buy products and sell potions." I said flatly, the dwarves looked at me and some were a bit taken aback.
"This lady\'s a Majin, right?"
"She got some aura of death into her, like the dragon."
"I don\'t know why but she really reminds me of the ghosts we have to purify sometimes when we find them in the depths of the mountain\'s roots."
"She\'s a Majin, yeah." Said Darfu.
"Everybody is one except her." Said Baldur, pointing at Emeraldine.
"Knife ear!" Said one of the dwarves.
The next thing he saw was my fist landing into his face.
B A A A M!
"AGGH…!"
"Don\'t treat my wife as a knife ear or you\'re all getting smacked." I said, the dwarf that fell over the floor was groaning in pain.
"W-What the heck?!" He cried. "Lady, you\'re freaking strong!"
"You respect the strong, right? So try to comply with my request." I said.
"Y-You don\'t have to go so far!" Said Emeraldine.
"Oh, did she said wife?"
"Is she gay?"
"Are you gay?"
"Agh, you guys lack of manners is really annoying, but no, I just swing both ways, now stop asking embarrassing shit…" I sighed. "Are you interested in potions or not?!"
The dwarves looked at one another and then nodded.
"We really need some, the alchemist we got are freaking slow!"
"There are not many good ingredients for potions growing around the mountains, so they\'re usually super expensive too."
"If you brought them here, you could sell them at a good price."
"Alright, let\'s go! Let me also apologize for my rudeness, lady. Your strength really captivated me, so for you, we\'ll keep ourselves shut." Said the dwarf that offended Emeraldine, he was a black bearded dwarf with a rather sharp gaze, he seemed captivated by my strength, apparently.
"Oi, you bastard, you got a wife, don\'t go flirting now!"
"He really loves them strong, eh?"
"Your wife\'s already breaking your hips at bed, give it up, black bearded rat!"
"Pff… Hahaha! You guys are so weird sometimes, dwarves are really hilarious!"
I couldn\'t resist anymore and I ended bursting into laughter. Dwarves simply had such a charm with their way of speaking an acting, they were not at all like humans. I really liked them I guess, even though I just smacked one. The dwarves seemed to smile as they were glad to be complimented.
"Alright you guys, lead the way, where\'s home? I\'m sure it is in the next mountain, right?" Wondered Baldur.
"Yeah, yeah, it is like four to five hours walk from here, but we\'ll use our Flying Dragoons, so we can get there super quick." Said the black bearded dragon.
"Flying Dragoons?" I wondered.
"Wanna see them, lady?" Asked the black bearded dwarf with a cheeky smile.
We were quickly guided into the nearby cave, suddenly ending at the end of it, which led to the opposite direction of the mountain. Right in front of us there was three light aircrafts made from black and gray steel and decorated with paintings from dwarves.
Wait what?!
"What the heck is this?! Are they aircrafts?! In this medieval world?" I asked.
"Medieval world?"
"Whatche talking about?"
"These ain\'t aircraft, these are dragoons!"
The dwarves quickly explained to us that Dragoons were small flying vehicles powered by Magic Crystals/Stones from Monsters and Spirit Stone of lightning and fire element they mined from the mountains. They unloaded everything into the storage parts of these things, and then quickly got up, inviting us to take a ride, there were enough seats for all of us, although it ended being a little cramped.
"Amazing, I can\'t believe dwarves had invented a way to fly through the skies!" Said Emeraldine.
"You guys are always in your mines, right?" Wondered Partner.
