However, giant dragons live in places rarely trodden by humans. In the civilized world, most encounters with dragons are just the stuff of legend, with only occasional rumors of mercenaries slaying dragons. But in reality, what they slay are usually just sub-dragon species that have some dragon bloodline.
But Charlotte was puzzled.
What puzzled her was, if, as Luf said, there really was a giant dragon that fed on mithril beneath the Castel mines, then the mine would definitely not suppress this news.
On the contrary, they would widely publicize it, recruiting mercenaries to slay the dragon in order to avoid further damage to the vein.
But in fact, the nobles in charge of the mine simply announced that the vein was depleted and closed the mine.
And what was even more surprising was that even the other nobles of Castel didn't seem to have any objections to this.
