Happy reading!
===========
"Who are you?" the dragon lizard asked, his tone heavy.
Staring at Ethan with predatory eyes, ready at any time if he becomes an enemy.
The Lizardmans didn't know what to do, hearing their rude remarks.
"Wait a moment, my brothers. He's the messenger, the one who guided us to the second floor!" Erd immediately explained in a hurried tone.
Afraid that Ethan would get angry again, didn't want that to happen.
Moreover, he knew that he was the one who slaughtered all the fire lions alone, without asking for help.
There is no wound, it has healed.
Well, although for the Lizardmans they have never heard of a envoy who can heal their wounds.
After all, they are just humans, without super regeneration.
If only they knew that Ethan wasn't human, they would definitely be very surprised.
"..."
Ethan's eyes suddenly flashed dangerously, but immediately restrained himself.
Seeing Erd immediately explained. Didn't move.
"hmph..." Ethan snorted softly, no longer intending to interfere.
But not for the dragon lizards, their expressions were complicated.
They didn't believe that Ethan was a envoy, judging from his energy.
The dragon lizards knew one thing that humans had no energy in their bodies. Like an empty body.
Even so, they restrained themselves seeing the serious expressions of their new friends.
"... Okay." answered the crowd of dragon lizards in a low tone.
Even though it took a while for them to talk, it didn't matter.
They also knew that envoys always did something unreasonable.
Soon, their expressions returned to normal.
Not intending to continue their feud. Immediately calm down.
"huft-" Erd suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, grateful they heard him.
After that, his expression was filled with a big smile.
The hearts of the Lizardmans were so happy to see one of their kind still alive.
It's just that the Lizardmans were confused about what was happening, seeing that there were wings on their backs.
Want to know what's going on, really know!
"By the way, what happened to the previous envoy?" Erd immediately asked, curious.
Wondering what happened when they were trapped on the second floor, seeing how absurd this situation was.
After all, the Lizardmans thought they were dead, but it turned out they were alive safely.
Without experiencing any difficulties, very strong.
When they were sparring, the Lizardmen had a hard time.
Feeling that their strength is much stronger than their race, it is very different.
A thought came to mind, but they quickly ignored it.
Considering this doesn't make sense, and couldn't possibly happen.
The dragon lizards didn't know how to answer, in the end they still told him.
"Ah, that happened about 52 years ago, when we and the previous envoy set foot on the second floor."
"At that time we didn't expect the gate to close without us realizing it."
"Maade us all panic, and immediately asked the envoy."
"Unfortunately..." before one of them wanted to continue speaking, his face took on a gloomy expression, "he didn't know anything, and told us to stay here." heavy tone.
Even though Ethan didn't pay much attention to them, he still eavesdropped. thought it was useful information.
Don't want to miss this opportunity.
'hm... So, he's not a bad person?' he thought to himself, thinking that his previous guess might be wrong.
It's just that he didn't know that the dragon lizards were very angry in their hearts.
They remembered the image of the messenger, slaughtering some of the creatures around the second floor so cruelly.
At that time they were still following him, before occupying this place.
Want to be useful to him.
Even though it was none of their business, it was still an unforgivable act.
From their perspective, it was disgusting.
A creature that follows its instinct to kill.
"..."
Erd and the other Lizardmans fell silent, feeling that what they had imagined was not that bad.
Guilt flooded their hearts, they desperately wanted to apologize to the previous messenger.
Slandering him like a bad person, committing heinous acts.
Indeed, some of their guesses were correct.
"I am happy too, my brothers." Erd bent his body slightly, tears starting to flow.
He was currently very happy, happy that they were fine.
Not only that, they even became stronger.
"We are also very happy to see you all come!" the dragon lizards answered, making the same movements as them.
They had great respect for their former race, very nostalgic.
They longed for the form of the creature before them, to see their bodies.
Remembering the times when they weren't as evolved as they are now, that's great.
The Lizardman on Erd's side also didn't want to be left behind, immediately lowering their bodies.
Even though it was late, they didn't care.
Like Erd, they are happy.
It went on for a minute until they finally stood up, with smiles on their faces.
"Since you are already here, how about coming to our village?" one of the dragon lizards immediately invited them, without any worries.
While stretching out his hand in front of them, hoping that his offer would be accepted.
Of course the Lizardmen were very happy, and immediately shook hands.
So many of them were fighting over each other, like worms.
Making it difficult for the dragon lizard to move, it felt a little painful.
But he held back, not wanting to disturb their reunion.
As they exchanged greetings, footsteps were heard.
It can be seen that the Lizardmen who were beaten by Ethan before, they have recovered.
Which now shows their faces filled with fear. Still feeling pain.
Though not as bad as the first time he hit them.
"u-ugh..." they all groaned a little in pain while holding their chests.
That was the place where Ethan landed his punch. Still looks bruised.
But Ethan didn't care, even though he had seen them.
He remained indifferent as if nothing had happened.
Feeling the situation has eased, thinking it's good.
His heart became calm, he did not feel any enemies around him.
That meant he could rest.
It's just that Ethan doesn't want to do it, he's curious about their hometown.
After that they started walking away, towards the depths of the forest.
Several tens of minutes have passed, with Ethan and the others in a beautiful place.
Around it there are various kinds of animals such as horses and even deer.
It's just that the horse is white, even the deer is very strange.
Black in color.
This made Ethan suddenly become even more curious, becoming very interested in this place.
Turned around, looked at the sky.
It felt like real, it was warm.
He began to wonder whether the sun was real or fake.
Moreover, there is a red moon on the first floor, very confusing.
A thought appeared in his head, remembering a world like the blood realm.
That's where the vampires live.
Realizing that this place might be real.
[...] the system just kept quiet, not wanting to say a word.
Don't intend to tell everything and anything about this place.
Not long after, the lake around started to foam.
There are a lot of them, maybe almost 40.
This suddenly made Ethan a little alert, ready at any time if something unexpected happened.
Luckily something like that didn't happen, seeing as it was just a bunch of dragon lizards.
"huft...-"
The dragon lizards that had just emerged from the water immediately lowered its head, knowing who they were, "Greetings brothers." in a respectful tone.
Some of them also looked at Ethan a little, realizing what race he belonged to.
'Human...'
But they soon gave up their plans.
After all, their ancestors originally came from lizardmans, which was natural.
And knew that Ethan was the one who guided their family here.
"Hello, my name is Erd, I'm a melee fighter!" Erd immediately introduced himself, impatient.
Really wanted to see what their hometown under the lake looked like. Definitely beautiful.
The dragon lizard who listened to his introduction just smiled, not thinking too much about it.
"My name is Emer, and I am the leader of the Westdragons, nice to meet you." The dragon lizard also started to say his name.
Voluntarily, without suspicion.
He had quite an old appearance, though not as old as the Lizardman leader.
The muscles around his body looked tough.
Very prominent.
On top of his head there was hair, short.
It's just that the shape is curved backwards, the color is dark purple.
Likewise with other dragon lizards. The same.
It's just that their skin is no different from the lizardmans, it hasn't changed.
"nod-" "nod-"
The Lizardmans immediately nodded their heads, slowly.
After hearing who the creature in front of them was, they knew that it was the village chief.
"Greetings, village chief!" they immediately bowed their bodies, showing respect.
For lizard people, a leader deserves respect, they are the ones who also guide their race to the end.
That has become their principle, every century it will change.
"nod-" "nod-"
The Westdragon leader was satisfied seeing their attitude.
Happy because his brothers from afar have not forgotten the ethics taught by their ancestors.
Soon he moved his head somewhere, right around the crowd.
Looking at Ethan who is now casually crossing his arms directly over his shoulders.
'So they are a new species?' Ethan muttered to himself, feeling curious.
Felt they were much stronger than the fire lions, for sure.
After all, they are a new species. Looks very similar to a dragon.
Surely they also have fire resistance, like him.
The two of them were currently staring at each other, without any feelings of hostility.
Friendly.
"I welcome you, honorable envoy." said the leader of the Westdragons, bowing directly in front of him.
Even though he knew that the messengers were cruel, he still believed that they were good people. Aware of their current situation.
If it weren't for that person, they wouldn't have been able to reach a species that was so much higher than their previous race.
He was very indebted to him, unlike his subordinates.
Their thoughts are not in line with what they think, instead they become hateful.
Luckily they didn't do anything rash, otherwise it wouldn't have a good impact on their race.
The leader of the westdragons knows the secret of the envoys's power. Every time they killed, they would become stronger.
"..."
Ethan who heard that could only smile a little at his sudden action.
He realized that the westdragons didn't like him. Seeing from the way they looked at him at the beginning of their meeting.

I hate my real life!
