章節 83: The Reward is here~
Aeternum after a few days of the celebration night, had enter the usual atmosphere, almost all the undead collaboration army already leave New city and headed for their own regions. Of course the independent individual such as adventurer and small mercenary group still remained, looking for some odd job in the city, some already buying a properties with intentions to resides in The New City.
New City were also for the first time allowed the 3 neutral guild open their branch in the Commercial District, of course unlike the usual procedure that they 3 guilds opened for free, I decided that they had to pay a taxes. Of course the Adventurer, Mercenary and Merchant guilds tried to persuade us that they should be operated without taxes, saying that we will absolutely needs their power and their vast network. In the end with Andrea with and assurerance that Aeternum will do fine alone, and since the previous battle already prove that, the Guilds representative knew that they had to surrendered to the terms, because if they don't they will lose a profitable spot.
The refugee also has started their Mandatory citizenship program, the participant not only come from the Tri-Nation Valley but also from the other 2 border (Half of it, as some refugee on the border decided to enter the Dukedom and Hallerus). Still all the refugee attended the Program has reached 200 000 participant, the program had to be done in batches, luckily there's no problem arise at the compound.
Still Mina who in charge of Aeternum National Security reported that the whole program might took 3 months or more to complete and finally all the refugee will be allowed to entered New City, all that were still in acceptable time for Aeternum, as there still about 5 months before the new year and the estimated time for the Monster tide Months. Right now all the operations in Aeternum back to normal, the military were only given 4 days of holiday before resuming to assault the nearby dungeons and quelling the monster gathering spots.
As for me of course I went back my peaceful mansion tending to my garden. Though I only leave my mansion for only 1 and a half week, my Ygdrasil tree already lush with greens, It was very calming to stay near the trees which already reach 2 meter high, magic tree are really magical indeed.
[The tree is really happy…growing up with better treatment than any living being, if it doesn't grow fast I suggest that you just cut it out and make a chair out of it..]. (T.A.S)
There's a truth In T.A.S words because not only the whole garden was trim and fertilize but also tend with care, I also played a classical music for them.
"Even if it grow slow I still care for it…..it's a rare specimen…also my way of relieving my stress after all day of working..by the way where is my reward?..".
It's been a few days since I finished the quest but the rewards is still nowhere to be found.
['It' on the way..well look at that, it's already here…]. (T.A.S)
At that moment my whole garden gone dark as if the area was under a shade, instinctively I looked up. What I saw was a giant head, just the sight of it I knew it's belong to a dragon because it looks similar to Armadillo Lizard, it looks magnificent, the scale was darkish golden that gliters ever slightly when the sun light reflected on them. Unlike the rumours it's golden eyes were not filled with insanity nor savageness but it's reflected wisdom and warmth. AS I look at it I got a feeling that this Dragon was quite old, because it's under eyes were baggy and full of wrinkle.

[Now..that's a dragon for you…still for an ancient fragon this one is quite a rare one..]. (T.A.S)
It's true, because unlike your average dragon this Earth dragons seems to be a peace loving one.
"Well…Hello there..".
Looking directly at it's eyes, I decided to break the ice.
"Greetings O great High Human….it's an honour to meet the old emperor Kin….This old Dragon Griksu'um greet you..". (Griksu'um)
Unexpectedly he tilt his head to mine.
"The honour was also mine Ancient Dragon…to what pleasure do I owe the wise observer coming to my humble nation?..".
"Hohoho…to be called wise by a high human…your praise was wasted on this old dragon your highness…I'm here just to greet you, your highness…and also to discuss something that might benefits both of us….May I come in?..". (Griksu'um)
"Please come in...….um, do you want some tea?..".
I was wondering how he will get in to my garden while just it's head already as big as the garden. But suddenly the large head shrinks and turns to a figure of an old lizard demi-human wearing a grey robe and holding a long iron staff. He gracefully hover in the air and land in my garden right in front of me, following my gesture, he nodded and sat beside me, at my garden gazebo.
"What a great mana tea…hm?…you even have a world tree in here?….hmm?…it's from the old tree…how rare..". (Griksu'um)
The atmosphere was around the garden was like the normal afternoon tea time between 2 old friend.
"Old Tree?..".
"Yes..it's from the Old Mother Tree…The First Mother…it's impressive, the last mother tree was already destroyed by those wretched human 200 00 years ago..but seeing one growing happily here..what a great occasion….as always only high human was able to do such feat….". (Griksu'um)
As he looks at the small tree, hid eyes were watery, there's even a melancholy feeling to his gaze.
"so it was destroyed huh…well at least we got a new one growing just nicely here…".
"..By the way your Highness..I come here to discuss something with you…". (Griksu'um)
"Hmm?…well please go ahead..".
I knew this will come but, I just decided to play along.
"I would like to swear and oath with you…in return for some favour..".(Griksu'um)
