High in the sky, the tense atmosphere eased as the two spoke, and Bellora officially stated his request—for the Giant Dragon's scales.
He also made a promise.
If Ronin was willing to provide the Dragon Scales, Bellora would grant a request of his in return.
Although Bellora specified it had to be something within his power, for a Great Mage of his caliber, what could possibly be beyond his abilities?
This promise carried considerable weight!
Ronin could ask for many things: High Level Magic or Combat Skills, a sum of Magic Crystal Stones, or even for Bellora to save his life a few times should he find himself in mortal danger.
He could even secure Bellora's support for any major power shifts in the future.
Thinking of this, Ronin patted the Giant Dragon's massive body. "Carlos, what do you think?"
The Giant Dragon snorted in displeasure, its two massive nostrils puffing out clouds of white mist.
To Bellora, it was obvious the Giant Dragon was furious and unwilling.
