Chapter 17: Dragon’s Core
"Hey Ai what’s special with the dragon’s skin."Hajime asked while cutting chunks of meat
"There’s nothing special but money from the skin but the actual treasure is the core the core catches quite the price you can get hundreds of gold coins."Ai
"I understand so does it have a lot of power?"Hajime’s face turned to a bit of disappointment
"Yes the core is something else."Ai
"So that’s why the Man howlers were super
charged."Hajime asked with a confused manner
"So where’s this core you speak of?,because I wanna collect and get going,don’t got the whole day."Hajime
"Yes the core it’s inside the dragon’s body somewhere on the heart area."Ai
"Uh,I knew that!" Hajime lied trying to looking smashed poking his nose from the side
"I mean it’s between the rib cages of the dragon’s body so get cutting."Ai
"Stop bossing me around I’m no loyal dog to you."
"You are right you are no dog you are a slave."Ai fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
Hajime moping while cutting
"Nah!, This is impossible I’m getting nowhere with this is money worth all this trouble."Hajime
"Yes it is because if you get to a town without money you will starve to hell."Ai
"Good point."Hajime while struggling
After a whole hour of trying to cut the rib cages,"Open!!" he realized something he can cut the stomach open and take take it from there
"This is way faster and easier."
"Notice you will have to get inside the dragon body to get the core."Ai
It wasn’t making any sense until he realized his arms aren’t long enough to get to the core
"Oh, yeah I have to get inside it." freewēbnoveℓ.com
"Huh,for the love of money!!"Hajime quickly got inside the dragon’s body
He saw something shining the color violet
"Is that the core?"
"Yes you’ve reached the core."Ai
He pulled it out and he got out the dragon’s body in a flash but in a flash his grimoire opened and chains pulled it into the grimoire then it went full lock down
"Dammit!, That’s my money,my money!"Hajime screams as he bashed the ground
"Notice you are very useless."Ai
"Huh,I know."Hajime was depressed he stood up his removed some of the blood on his body and started walking
Hajime went to the nearest river even though it was freezing he took a bath
"I need to get a hot bath soon because cold water will drive me insane...I can’t take it!"He got dressed and headed out
"These clouds didn’t clear up for long."Hajime was looking at the sky when he said this
"Our destination is only several hours away."Ai
"I’m hangry I need to get myself a meal."Hajime
The monsters in the forest looked and ran to hiding
"Come on I won’t eat you...I’m a terrible cook."Hajime continued walking miserably
"You really are scary you’ve managed to scare them."Ai
"Shut up you know nothing." After this words he kept quiet and started looking around he felt like he was getting watched
"Hey can you sense something."Hajime was in battle stance
"Yes but but it’s secretive I get it’s correct location."Ai
Then it just vanished into the woods without showing itself
"Man Whatever it was gives me the creeps."
"This walking could make even the fattest of people fit."
"You are incorrect it takes more than this."Ai
"There’s no winning with you here, you are just to smart."
"Man my body still hurts from the dragon’s beating it was brutal."Hajime was checking himself out
"Hey do you think where we are going is safe?"
"Apparantly it’s 99% safer than where we are right now,you know why it’s because in this place you are pray to this creatures."Ai
"You can’t even sleep with both eyes closed."Ai
"Actually I do."Hajime
"Shut up because when I say two I mean one of the two is mine and I don’t sleep."Ai
"Oh."Hajime
