When I looked at the incision on the dragon's neck, I knew that a neat incision like this could only be made by 2 conditions:
First, either someone extremely powerful killed the dragon with ease, and of course I will refute this since that Dragon is about to become a God, how can it be killed by a human? . So there was only one possibility, it was attacked when it was caught off guard.
Second, this incision is the work of a medium-sized knife.
And I understood, what were those gold coins and Mithril knives meant for.
To kill this Dragon, of course.
But it looks like it's worse than that.
If I'm not mistaken, those gold coins are depicted as exquisitely as a key. And Dragon's hobby is collecting treasures. Especially they are crazy about yellow things. And it seems this Dragon is no exception. The experience of reading novels is now being promoted extremely effectively.
Just to be sure, it was very likely that the dragon slayer had left the other key behind on purpose. Anyway, the diamonds and stained glass on it are extremely precious. And if you deduce from this, then this key was originally just an ordinary thing. After the dragon's soul is inserted into it, it turns into a Legendary item and is also assessed as a living creature.
At this point I realized how terrifying the knife I was carrying was
I activated my Appraisal skill level 2, and the result was not unexpected
=Mithril knife
As a knife made of rare metal, it can cut any material and never wear out
-Level [ Myth ]
Effect: As a knife bathed in blood and killed many souls, it turned into a cursed knife. Capable of separating any creature's soul from its body=
Haha... My life...
Now I'm carrying a butcher's weapon. Are you kidding?
I guess I would faint immediately when I look at it.
My eyes are really heavy and my head hurts like never before.
The more I dig into this, the more complicated it gets, and it's like a puddle of mud dragging me down.
I glanced at the dragon
'You're lucky, at least you're alive...'
I looked at the corpses lying beside me and at the knife and the coin.
It seems that everything is completely clear now.
