Chapter 64 - Let's Get Down To Business Now

“It’s dragon cuisine.”

When Ian opened the lid of the dish, everyone’s eyes widened.

All present in the place peered inside with trepidation. 

It was only natural.

‘Did he really cook dragon meat?’

‘With that… that dragon?’

They still hadn’t erased the image of the dragon that appeared in the royal castle from their minds.

The royal guards, who usually boasted that they could even catch dragons, were quiet for the moment.

‘What, it can’t even be compared to a Lesser Dragon.’

It was the first time for a man to lose his will to fight just from a single roar. That’s why they were surprised that the Seventh Prince even brought such a fellow.

‘I can’t believe you’re going to cook with it.’

‘We may be punished.’

They never dared do that. 

So the aristocrats and the royal guards secretly trembled.

But regardless, Ian smiled for a purpose. 

“Hurry up and try it. Here’s the soup.”

Ian kindly explained how to enjoy the dish, but the envoy’s hands only trembled and could not hold the spoon.

The soup was transparent enough that the bottom of the bowl could be seen.

And it turned out to be an excellent royal hors d’oeuvre, but the content was…

‘T, that dragon earlier.’

The envoy’s face hardened.

Ian deliberately made a bewildered expression seeing the envoy’s frightened appearance and quickly retracted his smile. 

“I’m sorry. They say the Cantum Empire doesn’t touch any food unless it’s fresh dragon meat.”

The envoys of this Cantum Empire did not have a good reputation. 

There were several large and small countries around Kaistein, all of which were poor countries where dragon meat couldn’t be served every time. 

Still, Kaistein was a powerful country, so they were fine, but the neighboring countries were greatly humiliated.

Anyway, those countries were better than the eastern empire that took away Kaistein’s land in the past.

Cantum, who had recently been riding the tide and playing empire, had their nose too high in the air.

However, Ian pretended to be clueless and made an apologetic look to the envoy.
