Chapter 57.4
“My daughter left many days ago with a group of young people, saying that if there was a precedent, she could do it too.”
“Are you saying they are now in the dragon’s lair?”
“Perhaps.”
According to the schedule, they should have already returned, but they hadn’t. So, before the sun set, the leader of the reconnaissance unit told him that he had confirmed all the deaths. Since the number of confirmed deaths was apparently lower than the number of people who had set out, it didn’t necessarily mean that they were all dead, and the corpses were so burnt that they couldn’t be identified. Therefore, there was no chance she was still alive. Although she might still be hiding near the dragon’s nest. But the possibility of victory had already vanished…
Sequence thought it was foolish. The opponent was a dragon. They weren’t like demonic beasts. They were cunning, cruel, vengeful, and wise. There was no way they didn’t have a way to deal with the threat to their lair. Even if they were able to hunt them down, there was always the possibility that they had some secret trick up their sleeve.
He told his daughter and the young ones surrounding her, but they refused to listen, saying it was nothing more than a big lizard. So why didn’t it land in Fortress Gije? Why did it only breathe its fire from the sky? Because if it landed on the ground, it wouldn’t be able to defeat us, they boldly claimed. The result would be its complete annihilation.
“She’s so foolish that I can’t believe she’s my daughter. If you’re fine with a girl like that, I’ll introduce her to you. So, do you want to marry her?”
“Are you sure? Is it okay?”
“You’ll have my blessing. If she’s still alive.”
