I checked up on the rewards that I received this time. Well, it seems I won't need to be worried about dragons as much as before. Not that I was much worried about them..
The 'interrogation' was merely a truth and lie detector test. We didn't tell them everything but said that our intentions were rather fair to them, to which they sighed and accepted. Though they forbade us to go to the higher mountain. Other than that, we can spend our time here as long as we don't cause any trouble.
Aarick went to talk with the head of the town, saying he might find something useful here. As for Diaspora, she went to check the village and will be back before the time ends.
"Well, we got about 40 more minutes. What should I do?" I questioned as I looked around the village while walking through the marketplace. There were a bunch of fruits and stuff, but nothing that caught my interest.
"What are you doing?" a voice called out to me, making me turn around. One of the younger dragonling asked me as she observed me with a curious face. Her eyes staring deep into mine. Though I was a bit surprised to look at her.. she seemed oddly familiar.
"What's your name, kid?" I asked as I looked at her, wondering if what I was thinking was really true or just a mere coincidence.
"Why should I tell you?" she asked as she looked at me with a haughty look, making me chuckle a little. She seemed cute, to be honest.
"I will show you some magic," I spoke as I looked at the broken sword in her pocket. With a simple [Inspect!] I could see that the sword is rather special.
"Hmmm.. okay. But you will also answer what you were doing looking around the market, okay?" She spoke with a slightly excited face. Seems like 'magic' fascinated her to some extent.
"Deal."
I smiled as I nodded at her words.
"My name is Diaspora," the young girl, who looked no more than 15, spoke out as she looked at me. Her eyes seemed to contain the same glow as the Diaspora who was with us.
'I guess, I could see why she brought us here. And I think I understand where she went,' I smiled as I patted Diaspora's head. Before answering," My name is Michael. You got a nice name, Diaspora. I was actually wondering if there is anything that I can eat here or perhaps find something that would be fascinating. I have never been to a dragon's market, you see."
"Eh? You are not a dragon?" she was surprised to hear my words as I nodded at her. I wondered if I should tell her I am an Ethereal or a human.. though in the end I went with,
"I am a Human."
"Human?" Confused, she looked at me. Her eyes seemed like she didn't know what humans are.
"Don't think much about it," I smiled as I patted her head again before she nodded and said," Now show me magic!!"
The excitement in her words made me laugh a little as I pointed to her weapon," show me that. I will show you something super amazing."
She was hesitant at first, and the other dragonling also observed me from a distance. But after a few moments, she spoke,
"Promise you won't run away with it."
"I promise," I nodded as she smiled before taking out the broken sword as she explained," it was a gift from my mother from 5 years ago in my coming of age ceremony. Though.. I ended up breaking it on the very next day when I tried to enchant it.."
She looked down with a regretful face.
"And there was no one who could repair it?" I asked, and she nodded," they said that even the best craftsman wouldn't be able to work on that weapon. It's too precious and too strong."historical
I took the weapon in her hands as I nodded. I looked at her," now look carefully, Diaspora. Don't blink, okay?"
She nodded as she focused on the sword.

And the dagger glowed brightly as the blinding light brightened the entire village.
"Halt!"
"What do you think you are doing?"
Two guards came from behind as they pointed their weapons at my neck. But at the very next moment, their eyes fell on the weapon, levitating just above my palms. The sword, which was dull and broken before, now was in its original shape, shining blue, in its prime.
"And there ya go. Like it?" I winked at the little Diaspora as I passed the weapon to her. She looked at me with a blank expression, as she was having a hard time believing it.
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
It wasn't just her, but everyone in the area just gawked at me. With their eyes wide open, just about to fall off its sockets, and mouth wide enough to fit a bunch of eggs in it, they looked at me without uttering a single word.
"Oi! What are you doing here?" Aarick, walking along with another dragonling and a bunch of guards, moved towards me as he shouted from afar. If I am not wrong, that person is probably the head of this town.
"A bit of this and that. How are things on your end?" I asked as I passed the sword back to Diaspora before moving towards Aarick. As for the guards who were pointing the weapons at me, they were too shocked to move.
"Huh? What in the world!!" The head, who was coming towards us, jumped at Diaspora as he took the weapon from Diaspora's hand and observed it with a rather surprised expression.
"They seemed to have almost proceeded fine until you went and did whatever you did.." he spoke, annoyed at me. His eyes looked at the dagger before speaking," you really did something absurd again, didn't you?"
"Kind of," I spoke as I looked at the dragonling observing me with greed now.
"I apologize. Mr. Aarick, but I am afraid I have to hold you down here.. what you have shown is something we cannot just let go anymore," the head dragonling's eyes turned deep blue as he observed us.
