Chapter ?413 Encounter With Dwarves
-----
As we traveled through the skies, the beautiful mountain range finally came closer, its beautiful gray ash colors showing all of its details. It was quite easy to tell how many caves there were due to the many openings across the several mountains lined up together, which amounted to up to over twenty of them. All of these mountains stretched across this corner of the continent, forever covered on snow. The beautiful mountains were probably as big as Mount Everest because the peak of such mountains reached higher than the clouds themselves, most of them being covered by the clouds.
The beautiful scenario in front of me quickly shocked me, making my phantasmal heartbeat faster by the second. I slowly grew more and more excited. I've been only traveling across a small part of this enormous continent, seeing such a beautiful scenery impacted me so much that I couldn't help but look in awe.
"S-So this is the Mountain Range of the Ash Gray Mountains…" I said, barely mustering words to speak about the beauty of this place.
The mountain range was surrounded by thick forests made out of a variety of different types of trees, all of them were as resistant as pine trees against low temperatures and were growing even over the rocky slides of the mountains. There were several roads across the many mountains too, and we even saw some big carriages carrying ores from the distance, small people were carrying them across the roads, seemingly without even minding us at all.
"Wow, look, are those dwarves?" Asked Partner, pointing down.
The three dwarves looked down and then smiled.
"Ah, those are some of our guys!" Said Baldur.
"OOOOIIII!" Balladur roared from atop the skies.
"W-Wait, Balladur, we can't just show them we have a dragon with us!" Cried Darfu.
"What does it matter if we got a dragon friend here?! We just tell them he can transform or something! Not like there aren't any weird stuff in this world anyways!" Laughed Balladur.
Suddenly, the dwarves moving the cars filled with ores looked up into the sky, quickly taking a sight of the enormous size of Lucifer.
"What the…?"
"The heck?!"
"Is that a giant freaking dragon?!"
"A Black Dragon to boot!"
"HOLY SHIT, RUN!!!"
"Since when there were such big ass lizards in here?!"
The Dwarves suddenly dropped everything they were doing and began to flee for their lives, Balladur ended ruining everything.
"HEY! WAIT A MOMENT, YOU ASSHOLES!" Balladur roared back from the skies.
The dwarves, filled with shock, looked at one another as they ran.
"Did the dragon just spoke?!"
"What in the heck?!"
"Shit, it's coming down! We can't run! We'll have to hold on in our own!"
"FUCK!"
The dwarves, which also included some women and were not all just guys like it was often shown in popular media, took out their weapons and pointed them at us as Lucifer decided to fly down and tell them he was a "friendly dragon" or something.
At this point we didn't had many options. I took a closer peek at the dwarves, some men had smaller bears than others, but they all were bearded, meanwhile the ladies looked like human women, but more stocked, they had long hair made into braids that were wrapped around their necks to show as if they were beards, they honestly looked rather beautiful.
"Ready yourselves!" The Dwarf in front of the others roared, raising his shield and his ax, as he suddenly enchanted them with his Mana, turning bright red in color.
"OOOH!"
The other dwarves roared in unison, as if it was a daily occurrence for them to get attacked by giant flying monsters, they all got into a circular position, Shielders upfront while those that used magic and bows were left behind. I guess dwarves didn't just main melee weapons, there were some archers and magicians as well.
TRUUUMM…!
Lucifer arrived in the floor right before them, looking down at everybody menacingly. His very appearance awakened fear into their hearts, but the dwarves were more rowdy than normal people, arrows and magic quickly began to hit his entire body, his scales easily reflecting everything.
"Shit, nothing's working!"
"What do we even do now?!"
"We have to fend him off! I've got this Stink Bomb here, let me use it!"
"Wait, are you gonna act like bait?! You'll die! What about your wife?!"
"Tell her I love her!"
One of the dwarves suddenly ran in front, as if provoking Lucifer to eat him, he perhaps wanted to use the Stink Bomb and throw it inside of his jaws so the dragon would suffer from its toxic gases and run away, giving time for everybody to run into the caves.
However, Lucifer remained in silence looking at everybody without doing anything. It hasn't even been a few seconds when we arrived here after all.
"Fear not, brothers, we are back!"
Suddenly, the voice of Balladur resonated behind Lucifer, as the dwarves suddenly fell completely into silence.
"Did ya hear that voice?"
"That's… no way!"
"The old man?!"
The dwarves were shocked as they looked at Lucifer.
"Did he turned into a dragon?! He got cursed and turned into a Fafnir!"
"Shit! Nooo!"
"Brother!"
"Old man!"
"Agh, shut yer mouths!"
Suddenly, the two dwarves jumped out of Lucifer's back as he lowered his body down, all of us as well decided to walk down.
"What the…?!"
"They were mounting a giant ass dragon?"
"Who are you people?"
Although they were shocked to see the twin Blacksmiths that were famous due to their age and also the blessings they have from gods, which allowed them to forge amazing stuff, they were also shocked from all of us.
"We are visitors from afar. I am sorry for having scared you due to my appearance, I am not going to eat you." Lucifer spoke with a serious and cold voice, the dwarves flinched and stepped back as they heard him speak.
"A dragon that talks?!"
"Wait… can it be?!"
"An Ancient Dragon!"
