[ Tiamat POV ]

What was that monster I couldn't help but think about that man- no....what is he? How can he be fine like nothing happened even after taking that head-on? 

When I first saw him I was surprised because I couldn't sense him until he entered my cave and I thought it might be because he used some kind of treasure to hide his presence 

So I didn't think much about it because in this world only a few in numbers have enough power to rival my own

At first look, he didn't like any special at all other than his good skin and I thought he come here as some ignorant insect to steal my treasures or try to take me as familia

So I threatened him in order to him leave my place but he didn't even show the slightest fear of my threats even in standing in front of my presence which is rare

But It seems my prediction for him was wrong, he came here because he just wanted a fight me more like a friendly fight and the most shocking part is I found no lies in his words

At first, I was intruded on by this because this may be the first time someone so ignorantly come here and asks such a thing for the first time without any fear

And the most shocking part was that he came here without knowing this place as well as my identity, and what his name was. Something like Jinwoo? I don't remember anyone of this name before

Since he and I don't have any Eminity with him, I agreed to his request just because I thought it would be fun to play with him but I didn't plan to agree to his request for free and since bad treasure to hide his presence then surely he should have more other treasures as well 

Hearing this, he raised his hand and suddenly a rain of various gold, pieces of jewellery and gems happened in front of my eyes which was very shocking because I didn't feel even the slightest magic fluctuation in the air 

Even though I hate to admit it but all the treasures he gives me to have excellent quality and with that I don't see any reason to reject him but since he is so small, I decided to change form into my humanoid one in order to give him a chance to attack me and it also helps me to not accidentally damage my cave

But when that hateful man saw my this form, instead of being grateful he called me 'short', I managed to calm myself down after seeing the treasures he was willing to give me in exchange for this

He then suggested we should go outside which I at that time considered unnecessary mainly because I didn't consider him worthy enough to change places for such a trivial thing

As I rushed towards him with the intent to end his stupid game in one hit but against my all expectations, he dodged it without any effort but I assumed it was a fluke

So I continued to attack him with physical attacks but he evaded my all attacks with ease

At that time I admit, that my every prediction about this man was wrong, as I agreed to take this thing I more opened space in order to not let my treasure get damaged especially when some of my treasures here were priceless

As I brought him into more space in order to let us fight without worries but to make it more fun I decided to make a bet which I thought would be more beneficial for me

If he becomes mine then his all processions will be mine as well and I can use him to hunt down Ddraig processors after all that bastard still hasn't returned my treasures

Thinking of treasures he has taken from me, I couldn't help but grit my teeth because all the treasures he took from me are really priceless, not to mention how hard for me to acquire them

But that bastard took it without any intention of returning it and becoming a Sacred Gear, like that hateful bastard got no sense of responsibility and I swear to kill every Ddraig processor until he returned what originally belonged to me 

To his Response, he agreed to my unreasonable bet with a small smile on his face which confirmed my suspicious about being him completely clueless about me

I gave him to attack me, but I didn't expect him to suddenly appear before or should I say his speed was so fast for my eyes to catch his movements 

Not only that, as he appeared right in front of me and seeing him I got a dangerous feeling as I tried to defend myself, he already punched me in my guts without any mercy

Even with my scales, his punch made me want to puke, and I was barely able to stand up, I also saw him say something but at that time because of pain I couldn't understand a thing he said 

But I am sure he was mocking me because of how confident I was and now I was the one who was on her knees and as one of the proud dragon kings I couldn't able to take this humiliation, at that moment I decided to go all out on him and make him beg for his life

Unfortunately, nothing went like I thought it would because no matter how I attacked him, it was worthless because he either blocked it or dodged it and his physical attacks were more powerful than me

Even my fire was not effective, with every one of his attacks, made me even more humiliated in the end I was the one who was on the ground as I coughed blood meanwhile he was completely fine and looked like he didn't even take me seriously

With this, I lost my mind and wanted to just destroy but unfortunately or fortunately he was even able to stop that attack which almost cost my life without any injuries as well as he also saved my life which I am grateful for

But before I blacked out I saw his hand which was completely covered before with his cloth, his hand had scars….burn scars and I am sure it was not me who caused it, so I couldn't help but wonder who in the world was capable enough to hurt this monster

Looking at him who is now staring at me, I slowly get since I have a promise to fulfil and as dragon king I can't go back on my words
