"Polkenny, your age... in human terms, you are only eleven or twelve years old."
She should have been younger four hundred years ago. In this way, it seems that we can understand why she is so naive. After all, she has never seen other dragons, which means she has no elders to teach her, and her understanding of the problem depends entirely on her own growth.
Polkenny's expression was stunned, and then he slowly looked down at himself, and then at Chelsea, as if... he was really like an eleven or twelve-year-old girl.
"I...the dragon's age cannot be calculated like this. I have experienced thousands of years, and this appearance can't explain anything."
He raised his head slightly, his eyes a little evasive, more like convincing himself than telling Shen Fu.
"It's nothing. Don't worry too much. Polkenny, since your injury has healed, I'll take you back."
There is also a big elf here who has lived for four hundred years. If we don't look at wisdom and just look at personality, there is not much difference between Beatrice and an eight or nine-year-old girl.
"Well, I also keep my promise, Shen Fu, and you will become my second friend."
Polkenny came over and stretched out his white palm with a solemn expression, but he didn't realize that Chelsea, who was still hanging on his body, had completely ruined the atmosphere.
"It was an honor."
After holding that hand, the first friend should be the Lion King who has been buried for four hundred years. For some reason, Shen Fu still felt that it was more exciting to "hold the claw" with Polkenny in dragon form.
After explaining to everyone in Night Raid, he took Polkenny and Beatrice back to Zero World. As for Ji Ming and others, he had already sent them back.
"Are you going back? Or are you going to stay with us for a while? I didn't forget to help you build a new residence."
Shen Fu did not take Polkenny back to his previous residence, but directly to the base. Since they are already friends, it is normal for friends to live together. How can you watch your friends suffer in that kind of place? ,Right.
"The wound has healed. I will take care of the rest myself. I have received a lot of help from you."
Polkenny showed hesitation on his face. He originally wanted Shen Fu to help expand his residence because his actions had not changed, but now he can do it by himself. It is nothing more than digging up the mountain a little... As long as it doesn't collapse.
If her thoughts at this time were known to the dragons who live in luxurious palaces in other worlds, they would probably think that this child is really pitiful. She has lost her parents since she was a child and doesn't know how to take care of herself...
"Okay, don't worry so much between friends. Leave these matters to us. Well, you can stay here in human form for a few days first. You can also go and see the country you protect. By the way. , do you know that this country is currently electing a king?”
Shen Fu patted Polkenny on the shoulder and cleverly changed the subject. Although this was a bit shameless, seeing how miserable she had been before... it would be better if someone raised her... ahem, it would be better if she had someone to take care of her.
"Of course I know. Although I can't come in person, I have been communicating with the humans in this country through the alchemy items left here to observe the situation here. The five 'Dragon Witches' who participated in the king's election were also selected by me."
Polkenny nodded, as if all this was taken for granted. Only then did Shen Fu really feel that the little girl in Gothic clothes in front of him was indeed the patron saint revered by this country.
"Then why choose five? Wouldn't it be better to just choose one? In the end, it's all up to you to decide."
There are actually many questions about this king's election. For example, why all the members of the royal family died suddenly. If it was fate or a curse, then why was Felt left? Another example is that as a half-elf Why did Emilia become the Dragon Witch? Every candidate except her has a close relationship with Grunica.
Since the person who controls all of this is right in front of him, then just ask him carefully. Shen Fu told his questions one by one.
"For the sake of observation, I agreed to that person to protect his country. Although I will not interfere in their own civil strife, the king is still very important to a country. Naturally, I need to choose the most suitable one. As for the half-elf. .....”
When talking about Emilia, Polkenny frowned slightly.
"It's also for observation. She is too similar to the Jealous Witch, and the magic power in her body is enough to destroy the world. I need to know if she poses a threat to the world."
Even Polkenny didn't know what was going on with Emilia. He just vaguely guessed that she must be related to the Jealousy Witch. Knowing this was enough to take her seriously. She didn't want to have that battle again.
"I see...Civil unrest?"
Shen Fu shook his head. Although Polkenny did not explicitly tell the reason for the death of the royal family members, she had actually answered that if there were external forces involved, she would definitely stop it, but if there was civil strife, she would not care. .
In the entire Kingdom of Grunica, there was only one person who could and had the ability to do such a thing, Roswaal, who had a copy of the Book of Wisdom. The dragon he wanted to kill was right in front of him.
"Shen Fu, did you also support a King's Chosen One?"
Just when Shen Fu was thinking about how to deal with the hidden danger of Roswaal, Polkenny suddenly looked at him. She said that she knew about the Huaxia Kingdom before, and it was not nonsense. She could know something about King Grunica through the Dragon Calendar Stone left behind. Of course, it is also clear about the major events happening in the country and the fact that a distant powerful country comes to visit and occupies a territory.
"Yes, we support Ferut, Polkenny. If Ferut hands over this country to us after he becomes king, does that count as breaking your promise to protect it?"
Shen Fu admitted it directly. This question also needs to be asked clearly. Rather, if Polkenny doesn't care, the result of the king's election has basically been finalized. What is a safer way to win than directly dealing with the referee.
"As long as you don't send troops to attack, I won't care about their internal affairs. The king also has the right to decide the fate of the entire country."
Polkenny shook her head. If she wanted to stop it, she would have intervened long ago. After all, she didn't care what happened to greedy humans. Protecting the country from invasion and natural disasters was just because of her promise to the Lion King. If the country were to perish on its own, she would be freed from this contract.
