Who says evil dragons have to abduct princesses? A thousand-year-old retired dragon just wants to guard his treasure and bask in the sun, but his retirement plans are thrown into disarray when a rebellious princess breaks into his home! “From today on, this tower is mine!” The unruly little princess barges in with a weapon, turning the tables, and begins a hilarious life under one roof with the old dragon, who just wants to take it easy. She mocks the dragon’s hopelessly tacky taste, while he suggests turning the tower into a floor-to-ceiling window so he can watch her do yoga while he eats. They argue over the best way to pair lamb shanks with wine, and even team up to go easy on heroes so they can collect ransom.
As fantastical settings like clockwork cities and toy dungeons appear one after another, this seemingly silly companionship gradually grows into a warm bond that crosses species. With its subversive premise and heartwarming, hilarious everyday moments, this story will help you discover that “companionship is the greatest treasure” in a wondrous Western fantasy world.
“Dragon, what will you do if I die of old age?”
“…Scatter your ashes into the sea, like the last princess.”
“How boring. Then you’d better help me beat up my little brother first. He wants to trade me for land.”
And so the evil dragon crushed the royal authority. When the princess pointed to an ancient book and asked, “Can the elves’ Moonwell borrow another five hundred years from the heavens?” the dragon finally realized that, for the first time in his long life, a human’s time had given his own life a measure. An adventure about eternity and fleeting moments had begun with an awkward promise from a kidnapper to his hostage.
It's beautiful hahaha, I haven't been so happy reading a treasure book in a long time 😄😄😄
The concentration was so high that my aunt laughed before I knew it.
It's fun and there's something about the Northeastern dialect
