Chapter 209
I asked Kathe as she played with Grulf .
Kathe . Have you introduced Mors to Danton yet?”
“Oh, not yet . ”
“I see . ”
And then I turned to Mors .
“Please follow me . I would like to introduce you to Sir Danton Woolcott . ”
“Yes . Thank you . ”
As I started to walk, Mors called me with an apologetic voice .
“Um, Mister Locke . ”
“What is it?”
“It’s probably very insolent of me to even ask this of you, but…”
Mors said .
Then he asked me to talk to him more casually .
“Ah, but you are my instructor now, Mister Mors…”
When I said this, Kathe opened her mouth and let out a boisterous laugh .
“But you don’t talk to me like that . And I am the ruler of the wind dragons . So it’s no surprise that Mors would feel awkward . Don’t you think?”
“Really?”
“Yes . Besides, the water dragons see you as a great hero, Locke . ”
“They’re exaggerating . ”
Mors heard this and declared in an enthusiastic voice .
“It’s not an exaggeration at all!”
“I-I see…”
Kathe grinned and said,
“I suppose so . In any case, I think they’ll be very angry with Mors when they find out he’s been forcing you to speak to him like this . ”
“I don’t think so . ”
“…Yes . They definitely will . ”
Mors agreed quietly . But then he quickly added,
“But! Mister Locke, you must, of course, use whatever you are comfortable with!”
If Mors would get in trouble because of it, then I suppose I could change the way I talked to him .
“In that case, I will be less respectful . ”
“Thank you . I hope it’s not a problem?”
Mors said apologetically .

“No, it’s obviously much easier . ”
“Thank you!”
Mors said with visible relief .
And then we headed for Danton’s room .
Grulf led the way as if it were the most natural thing . His tail proudly pointed upwards .
“Grulf, you want to lead us?”
“Groof . ”
I had an idea where Danton was .
He was likely in the chief’s room .
Grulf sniffed the air and advanced slowly .
“Mister Grulf . Thank you . ”
“Groof!”
Grulf’s tail wagged as Mors thanked him .
And then Grulf stopped in front of the chief’s room .
So Danton was here after all .
“Thank you, Grulf . ”
“Groof!”

I patted him on the head . Grulf’s tail wagged happily .
When that was finished, the door opened from the other side .
Danton looked at us .
“Ah, Locke . I was wondering why you wouldn’t come inside . ”
“Sorry . I was just petting Grulf, since he escorted us all the way here . ”
“Ah, well . That is important as well . ”
Danton said with a nod .
Beastkin had good noses and ears .
He had known we were behind the door all along .
And then he had become tired of waiting and come out to greet us .
“Groof!”
Grulf pressed into Danton .
“Good-good . ”
Danton petted him as he looked at us .
“And who is this?”
“Mister Mors . A water dragon . I brought him here to introduce him to you, Mister Danton . ”

“I am Mors . It’s nice to meet you . ”
“Danton Woolcott . I am one of the beastkin chiefs . Please come inside…”
After these introductions, he invited us into the room .
At the same time, he ordered for someone to bring us some tea .
And so we sat down .
Grulf sat next to me and rested his jaw on my knee .
Grulf liked both Danton and Mors, and was able to relax around them .
Mors quickly bowed .
“Thank you for all the help you have offered us water dragons . ”
“No, thank you for giving us such a treasured sword…”
Mors and Danton thanked each other .
When it seemed like they were finished, I said,
“By the way, about why Mors came here . He is going to help me create the magic tools that will be installed in this mansion . ”
“Thank you so much for that . ”
Danton bowed his head to Mors again .
There was a possibility that someone who had been ‘Charmed’ by a vampire had infiltrated the settlement .
And so we would create tools that could detect them .
With Mors and Dorgo helping me, I believed I could make something truly spectacular .
