Chapter 441
Chapter 441
After a day of rest, on the third day after defeating the ice dragon, Elena sat in a carriage leaving the border of the principality and drove towards his hometown.
He came here only to improve. After defeating the ice dragon and satisfying his requirements, Elena had no more thoughts and had no intention of staying for sightseeing.
In fact, after defeating the ice dragon and passing the news to the guild, the local guild and even the nobles of the principality invited Elena, hoping that he could participate in the subsequent celebration banquet-like dance.
Although he was an adventurer from a foreign country, everyone wanted to get to know a dragon slayer like Elena, and even wanted to see if they could poach him.
For adventurers with greater vanity, it is easy to accept because of the desire to show off their achievements. Once they come into contact with these dignitaries, they will be tempted by the other party's various beauty schemes and interests.
After accepting the other party's things, they completely fell into the trap prepared by the other party. It is not so easy to get out of the relationship when they come to their senses.
Elena knew this very well, so he left without any hesitation. In addition, he was in a hurry and had no mood to deal with the people here.
"Hey, adventurer, have you heard? Recently, it seems that someone has conquered a real dragon in Winter Fortress. It has been many years since we heard of the birth of a dragon slayer."
The rumor that the ice dragon was conquered has spread. The uncle who drove the carriage to the foreign merchant said excitedly.
This man who looks only in his early thirties is quite young for this industry and is not a particularly experienced traveling merchant.
Maybe it's because of the boring journey. This relatively young merchant is very talkative like other people. He has not stopped talking since Elena got on the car.
"Yeah."
Elena replied lightly. He has heard of it. The ice dragon itself was killed by him. The magic core tastes great.
"I heard that he is also an adventurer and very young. From the description, he seems to be about the same age as you.
It's really enviable. He has achieved such success at such a young age. The honor of defeating the ice dragon is enough to make him famous, right?"
Elena's attitude was as cold as ever, but the young businessman seemed to not care and kept talking, as if he could talk all day even if Elena didn't say anything.
Elena didn't think that the other party was irritating because of his talkativeness, and he listened patiently. Speaking of glory and fame, when the information about the defeat of the ice dragon is completely collected and accepted, Elena's achievements as an adventurer will indeed be greatly improved.
It is no exaggeration to say that Elena can consider taking the gold medal adventurer identity card in a while, replacing the silver card with pure gold, and taking a step towards becoming a real star adventurer.
Unfortunately, he doesn't have the idea or time now. The exchange meeting will start soon, and he has to deal with this matter first.
He had not forgotten the battle agreement with Bart. Now Elena was confident that he could defeat him.
"But I believe that you, the adventurer, are not much worse than the dragon slayer. Please take care of me on this trip. If there are any monsters on the road, please help me."
As they chatted, the young merchant said with a smile, full of flattery, and his flattery skills were not particularly good.
There was no way. For ordinary people like him, this was the way to survive. Although he was a traveling merchant, he was not particularly wealthy.
Otherwise, he would not have driven the carriage to the distant kingdom without a guard.
He accepted Elena's request for a ride because of his identity as an adventurer.
Although he was not sure how much worse he was than the dragon slayer, the young merchant still recognized the silver identity card hanging on Elena's chest.
Although it was reluctant, with the protection of the silver adventurer, this trip should be relatively safe.
"Yeah."
Irena didn't refuse but just responded lightly. He was ready to take this ride. He was just a small guard, so he didn't have to be so arrogant.
Maybe he felt stuffy, so Irena opened the window of the carriage and stuck his head out. Sitting with so many goods, the air in this small space was not fresh.
The cold wind slapped on Irena's face, but he no longer felt the cold at this moment. The magic core of the ice dragon changed his physique. He was not afraid of the cold, and he was even more immune to such wind and snow..
Just then, there was a sudden sound of fierce horse hooves in the distance, and it seemed that someone was riding a horse and galloping behind the carriage.
At first, Elena didn't care. After all, this road was the main road of the principality, and it was not surprising to meet other travelers on the road here.
Even occasionally, soldiers from the principality's expedition could be seen. There were still quite a few people here until entering the mountains.
But soon Elena sensed a familiar breath, turned her head and looked behind, and a black figure was riding a horse and approaching quickly.
"Why is this guy chasing me?"
The person who was riding a horse and chasing me was none other than Fili, who Elena didn't have time to say goodbye to.
The world only knows that a young adventurer solved the ice dragon, but they don't know how many people died in the battle with the ice dragon, and which strong man took action before the crusade against the ice dragon.
For most people, they only need a hero. They worship individualism and prefer to hear legendary stories.
But for those at the center of the incident, the impact of the sacrifice is huge, and even if you want to avoid it, it is still a lingering existence.
The soldiers of the Winter Fortress suffered heavy losses, and even Governor Robert died tragically in the Ice Dragon Battle. As a member of the fortress, Fili's fate has also changed.
Since the end of the Ice Dragon Battle, as a survivor who barely witnessed the process, Fili has been forced by the authorities to write reports during this period.
After all, the Principality needs to know the detailed ins and outs, and Fili is the best person to get the news.
Knowing that Fili will be very busy during this period, Elena did not disturb the young girl too much. Anyway, the two of them just met by chance, and there is no need to make so many fancy things when they say goodbye.
But now it seems that the other party does not think so. After learning that Elena started to leave in a carriage, Fili immediately put down her work and rushed over without stopping.
Come to see Elena for the last time, not for any complicated purpose, just to say goodbye to Elena in person.
