The Possessor Has No Desire To Be a Protagonist

77. Dragon’s Nest (1)

I have already purchased the things I need to get a chance.

It was a brown bag. It is a backpack type with nothing special at all, and it is an ordinary design that can be seen in the market.

In the original story, a drunken Arthur leaves his bag at the tavern. And the next day, someone mistakenly carries Arthur’s bag instead of his own.

That was the first step to getting a chance.

“Arthur, shall we go for a drink?”

I asked in a nonchalant voice. And Arthur, of course, couldn’t refuse my offer.

“a drink? yes what Where are you going to drink?”

“There’s a good bar I know of.”

Come now and act according to the original story and get a chance?

Although many things had already changed, it was ambiguous not to try. In addition to that, I decided to believe in Arthur’s luck with me.

Above all, the novel itself was written based on the game. And today’s date is also the third night of the festival, the same day mentioned in the original work.

“Where is it?”

“It’s called the Sleeping Giant’s Tavern.”

“The two of us?”

“uh. It’s okay to have a drink with men sometimes.”

Why don’t you sing Sepia and Vivian?

This time, the more people there are, the more disadvantageous it is. There is also a place where you don’t know what variables will work.

As in the original story, Arthur has to drink and get drunk and lose his brown bag, but if Sepia or Vivian bring it, it’s ruined.

So we headed to the Sleeping Giant’s Tavern.

The festival continued for three days, but the exhilarating atmosphere did not seem to go away.

From all over the tavern, the sound of clinking glasses, laughing and chatting happily, and the boasting of drunken patrons could be heard.

There were so many different people gathered there. Some of them left the barrel and drank from the glass.

And as if it were natural, a bet was being made. First of all, the atmosphere seemed to be as described in the novel.

“Come on, let’s cover the best weekly party! Who is the next challenger?”

In the original story, Arthur and Sonny engage in a drinking bet at Sonny’s suggestion. So it seemed I should encourage Arthur. Arthur himself is unlikely to participate in the bet.

“Arthur, shall we join that bet too?”

“Want to drink?”

“Hey, don’t you think it would be fun?”

“Well, it’s a festival. great.”

As expected, Arthur coolly agreed. Due to the nature of Arthur, who drinks alcohol in moderation, he had to participate in the betting. Arthur headed to the drinking table with the brown bag I had left for a while.

“Can I join too?”

As Arthur got into the crowd, a giant looking scoundrel looked him up and down. Soon, he laughed out loud, as if he was laughing.

“You look young enough to drink, don’t you?”

That spurred Arthur on.

“I am old enough. And long and short, you have to deal with it to know.”

“okay? Shall we see how long it is?”

The man who had been drinking just sat down on the floor shouting surrender. The winner was a giant. The giant raised both hands like a champion in the ring.

“Come in. kid.”

“good.”

Arthur smiled and sat down in front of the giant. Sometimes Arthur laughs like that when he burns his fighting spirit. That smile is Arthur’s own secret sword.

“Okay, let’s start with something weak in the beginning.”

The giant handed Arthur a beer.

The two made a salty toast and started drinking in gulps.

widely!

Arthur set the beer mug down on the table first. And wiped the foam from his mouth.

“hahahaha, this is my friend. The condition for betting is to drink a lot and endure. It’s not about drinking fast!”

Arthur just shrugged. After that, the drinking continued.

widely!

Next, the two drank wine, honey wine, whiskey, and strawberry wine in turn.

Even though it wasn’t a quick drinking bet, Arthur quickly emptied his glass. It was the same pace even after quite a while. In the end, the giant raised his hand first.

“I lost! I lost! Brother, why do you drink so well?”

“Brother, no. You look older than me… .”

“If you drink well, you are all hyungs! I’m sorry. underestimated hahahaha.”

The drink was paid for by the giant. 50,000 eles bet on it. Arthur grinned at the gold coin he was holding.

“now. Challenge anyone! I am the Lord of this District!”

Arthur had already been drinking quite a bit. Because of that, there were those who wanted to bet on this time.

“If I’m that confident, I’ll try too!”

“like! How much are you going to bet?”

Arthur won a drinking bet with both of them after that. It was surprising that he drank that much. Drinking more than the original portrayed?

Of course, in the original work, Arthur and Sonny swept the tavern.

“Hey Arthur. it’s okay?”

“Then, of course it’s fine! Hey!”

done. It’s a success. They said there is no business in front of alcohol. I tried to help Arthur and get out of the tavern. It was time to close the tavern.

First of all, I followed the progress of the original. All results were to be determined the next day.

“Hey! Ah, Ethan! Do you think I can drink more?”

“Let’s drink it tomorrow too.”

“no! Let’s just eat and die today.”

I put a bottle of whiskey in Arthur’s hand. Taking a quick glance, it seemed that Arthur had left the brown bag I had left somewhere in the tavern.

“Then, let’s go and have a drink.”

Arthur drank as he walked. That’s how I dragged the drunkard and barely reached the front of the inn.

the next day.

As soon as morning came, I got up and woke Arthur up. Arthur jumped up and blinked his eyes.

“Arthur, what about the bag I left yesterday?”

“uh? Where are you? Did you leave it at the tavern?”

“You left your bag behind?”

“sorry… . I think I left it at the tavern… .”

We headed straight to the tavern.

As soon as the tavern door opened, I grabbed a brown bag from the tavern and left. A smile spread across his lips. Even from the outside, it was worn out compared to the bag I bought.

As in the original, the bag is reversed.

I wanted to shout hurray as it was. Still, just in case, I carefully checked the items in the bag.

It contained a large egg, a bag of coins, an iron dagger, a potion, and a brown diary.

There is no way to figure out the identity of the egg. Because it was a dragon egg. As soon as I saw Arthur, I returned the egg to the bag.

“What do you like so much about?”

“uh? Ah, nothing.”

My mouth was already twitching at the thought of getting a chance. So, the owner of this bag stole a dragon’s egg from the dragon’s nest.

anyway it’s great Anyway, I stole the dragon egg.

Stealing a dragon’s egg? Really, it would be impossible without great guts and skills. The important thing is that I mistook it for my bag and changed it.

“But hey, I think I changed my bag?”

“The bag has changed… ?”

I calmly showed the bag. Arthur scratched his head as if in trouble.

I opened the bag and showed Arthur the egg and journal.

“Well, it’s a very plain design, so someone must have changed it. But Ethan, what is that egg?”

“I don’t know either?”

“Then, may I read the journal first? You have to find the owner.”

At that suggestion, we opened the journal and read it. In the journal, the process of the thief digging the dragon’s nest was recorded.

The other party had a wild dream of robbing the nest and settling down in the countryside.

On the last page, it was written that he was going to drink a lot for today in the mood of congratulations for stealing countless jewels and eggs.

“uh? So, is this a real dragon egg? No, isn’t some crazy guy just using bullshit?”

“Well, I’m not sure about that either.”

Of course, this is a real dragon egg.

“What if this is a dragon egg?”

“Of course we have to find the original owner.”

“Um, is that so too?”

Now it’s time to enter the second stage.

Sooner or later, a brown thief comes looking for the bag. Even now, somewhere, they will be watching us.

The opponent will launch an ambush the moment we leave the village. Since it was during the festival, there were more guards than usual to raid here.

I told Arthur what I expected.

“Are they really going to attack outside the village?”

“Or maybe I’ll surprise you while you sleep.”

“That’s a bit difficult… .”

Whispering, we left the village and walked along the shore. With the feeling of waiting to bite the bait.

Just then, a man in brown leather armor approached.

Like the original novel, the guy declared an all-out war instead of a surprise attack. It meant that he was confident in the battle.

“Hey friends. Sorry, but that’s my bag. I have to give it back.”

The thief, half-hidden with a mask and hood, threatened.

“Sorry, but that would be difficult? We intend to return what is inside to the original owner.”

It was an answer worthy of Arthur Pendragon, the protagonist of justice. It was early morning. There were only three people on the shore, us and the thief.

“You saw what was inside. Then, I have no choice but to kill and take it.”

I’m just grateful that he blows his plan so smoothly. This is why villains shouldn’t talk too much. Thanks to that, I can shake off even the slightest bit of guilt and face the opponent.

Taat!

Kicking off the ground, the opponent attacked straight away.

fast.

Certainly, he moved swiftly, befitting a thief who stole eggs and treasure from the dragon’s nest. Arthur and I drew our swords at the same time and confronted the thief.

Caang!

A metallic sound echoed across the quiet beach. The two daggers held in reverse created a silver sword.

It must have been because he had the confidence to deal with Arthur and me at the same time in the first place.

“Arthur left!”

“yes!”

We dug into each other from each direction. The porridge fit well as if they had been breathing together for a long time. However, the opponent moved his right and left hands freely.

While deflecting Arthur’s sword with the dagger in my left hand, I caught mine with the other dagger.

Three streams of green magic surged up on the shore.

“If you return my bag right now, I will spare your life. My little ones.”

The lines are also really third-rate villains.

I took a slight step back. While I gathered my magic, Arthur blocked the thief.

Linchester Swordsmanship Type 2, Sword Soul!

As it was, the form of a blue dragon hit the opponent directly. Since you stole the dragon’s egg, give the dragon some peace. I turned to the side and took the wrong direction for Arthur.

As soon as I poured out my mana, Arthur rolled his body to avoid it.

The opponent must be a fairly high-ranking thief. However, no matter how great they are at stealing dragon eggs, they are far weaker than us.

[The swordsmanship has become faster and stronger than before. Lord.]

It was as it was said.

The sword soul I poured out became stronger and faster than before.

Quaang-!

As it was, the hem of the opponent’s clothes was torn to shreds. Then he knelt down on the spot and fell down.

“Wow… , Ethan has become really strong.”

I swung the sword around and returned it to the scabbard. I checked the brown thief’s pulse just in case, but it didn’t seem like anything to worry about.

The opponent was out of breath.

All you have to do now is return the egg to the dragon’s lair. A smile came to my lips at the thought of eating already.
