Dragon King's Harem Chapter 75. Whitevalley Vilge III

  The botes on our table were empty. What was left were s of beer in my and Eir's hands, also two cups of tea in front of Evelina and Jyne."You mean the Lizard tribe's Baron is here?" Evelina said just as I finished my story about the Wyverhieves.

  "Yes. With his assistants and knights," I said in an emphatie since I was sure that's why all the rooms in this Inn were full. My hand brought my mug closer to my mouth and I took anulp.

  Meanwhile, clear displeasure was evident on Eir's face.“The Lizard King only sent a Baron to meet you?” he said in a disbelief tone. He tightehe mug handle in his hand."How dare he..." he hissed in anger.

  "What does The Lizard King want from you?" Jyne asked.

  I put my mug oable and smirked."Chee. What else?" I said in a rexed tone.

  "I believe The Lizard King doesn't know that His Majesty has awakened," Evelina added to my expnation.

  "I know. But… why did he send a Baron?" asked Jyne again. She knew a king would not send a Baron to another king as his delegation except in an emergency such as in war to ask for help.

  "He just wants to mock the king," Eir hissed. Although I didn't want to think badly about this, I couldn't think of anything else besides that. After all, I had been asleep for 10 years and in the past, a Dragon King never slept lohan 1 month. The Lizard King had good reason to start belittling me and I was guessing he sent his Baron to find out what my subordinates could do in my absence.

  - Brak!

  The sound of the door opening loudly startled us. We turned in the dire of the sound, looking at the group of Lizard Tribes that had just entered.

  "Speak of the devil," I said casually. My hand brought my mug to my mouth again and drank the rest of my beer. My eyes were still fixed on the group of Lizard Tribe who were wearing the Lizard Tribe's Knight uniform. It was easy to tell who was the Baron since he was wearing the typical dark green Lizard Tribe's noble uniform. From his face, he also looked older than the rest of the Lizardmen. The Lizard Tribe Knight's uniform was very different from the Dragon Tribe uniform. Sihey didn't have armour skills like the Dragon Tribe's, they needed real armour to protect their bodies. So a typical medieval Knight armour covered their bodies plete with Lizard Tribe's signature on on their waist, M Star.

  "Where are those stupid bastards! Didn't they say they would bring my order today!" the Baron snarled in ahe sound of their noisy footsteps following him with the noise of the chairs being pulled as they filled the empty seats in the room.

  "Maybe something deyed their journey, My Lord," said one of them. And I knew who they meant.

  "But they're too slow! I'm tired of staying in this pathetic rotten pce!" said The Baron as he plopped to his chair."And I'm tired of this Inn's disgusting food!" he pined shamelessly even though the Inn owner was hem. Although I could say the food at this Inn wasn't good, I couldn't pin si was just a small vilge in the middle of a harsh enviro.

  "As usual, My Lord?" asked the Inn owner politely, it seemed the Baron has been staying here for a few days so he already knew his nature.

  The Baron turo the Inn Owner and gred at him."Do you have anything else besides that disgusting food?" he said in displeasure.

  "Okay, I'll bring it right away," said the Inn Owner with a smile. Then he bowed a.

  The Baron turo one of his knights."Is there any other news from those slow creatures yet?" His tone did not ge.

  "As you know, there's no word from them yet, My Lord," said his Knight.

  The Baron snorted in annoyand turned his gaze in another dire."Tch! Dammit! Is it that hard to get that thing?!"

  "You have to be patient, My Lord. That's a high-level mohat's why 'that thing' is very valuable and hard to get," answered one of the Knights.

  "They have arrived he forest, maybe something happeo them there. They should arrive tomorrow m," said another.

  The Baron turo the Knight and gred at him."It doesn't make me feel aer," he hissed.

  That knight could only lower his head in sorry and pressed his lips.

  The Baron turned his gaze forward, his fiapped the table ilessness."This pce doesn't even have a brothel. How I have fun in this b vilge?" His grumble was more suitable as a pint si was too loud. Unlike prostitution in my inal world, in Igixar, prostitution was a terrible thing for women. Because women who wao take up this profession had to drink a potion that no man could cim to be their wife. Unfortunately... The potion also sacrificed one of their basic abilities as a woman, their fertility. So if someone had decided to be a prostitute, she would not be able to live a normal life anymore.

  Upon his words, Evelina and Jyne quickly covered their heads with their hoods sihey didn't want to be that Baron's target.

  'The Lizard King has sent his 'best delegation' to see me,' I thought. A smirk on my lips. I knew some nobles do have bad manners, but I had never seen anything this bad before. After all, except for the king and his desdants, a lowly noble like him shouldn't dare to do something like this in another kingdom's territory.

  Seeing his bad behaviour, left me with another specution.'Did The Lizard King send him to make a fuss here on purpose?' That guess suddenly popped into my head. Although the guess sounded random, it strengthehe reason why he let The Baron take the road and also the reason why he sent a Baron to me. Since even though the Baron had the lowest rank in the aristocracy, he was still a noble, his position was above the oners. Oher hand, if a Baron made a mistake, The Lizard King could sacrifice it without hesitation since a Baron's power was insignifit. In fact, he could silehose who try to rebel because of this i with ease. So it could be that The Lizard King wanted his Baron to make a fuss with the oo lower my people's trust in me.

  "Here ya go, My Lord," said the Inn Owner as he pced the same bowls of soup as us and a pte of bread oable. Two other people also helped the Inn owo serve the others.

  "Do you want some beer, My Lord?" asked The Inn Owner.

  "I don't hat shit!" The Baron cursed unhappily.

  "Alright, I'll bring you your usual drinks," Then The Inn Owner bowed a.

  After that, they ate in annoyance.

  “I've never met a rude noble as bad as him before,” Jyne said in displeasure. Her voice made me turn to her.

  I could see her irritation and how bad she held herself. So was Evelina. They were royalty so they knew how nobles should behave.

  I knew I had to engage him to solve the Wyvern Egg problem, but I didn't want to involve Evelina and Jyne. Especially after they said they were looking for some women. Unfortunately, even though we wao ght to our room, we had to pass them to get there. I was sure they would be happy to block us sihey needed some 'eai' in this pce. And I didn't like him disturbing my women, so we had no choice but to stay here until they left.
