When they entered the room, they were met by Andre and a couple of people. He was sitting in one of the seats at the round table. There were only 10 chairs. One of them was much taller than the others, and Matthew sat on this one without hesitation. Anyone who knows anything about the Alliance should know that if they come to them with peaceful intentions, it must necessarily be goblins and a couple of orc guards. Even those who are their royal family always come in the guise of a goblin. This little thing often prevented misunderstandings. But because they are goblins, they are smaller than humans, so they give them higher tables as a courtesy.
After he sat down, they started their conversation.
-Glad to see you, Mr. Diplomat. May I ask why you decided to come? -Andre asked, feeling his aura of royal green.
- We planned to send an ordinary goblin here, but my brother(1) said that I'd better come myself. At first, I was skeptical, but after that, the next day, a message came, a report on the end of the battle. I was shocked to learn about it, and not only me. I came here mainly because of that creature, I would like to ask about it... him. Please note that not only I want to know this, but also all the leaders of the alliance. We would like to know who he is, and we would like to know what kind of creature he is.
Andre, after thinking for a while, finally spoke.
- We will answer your questions if it doesn't bother us. Our lord is from a race that disappeared a long time ago. His race called themselves Dragons. Our race has its strength only because we have the blood of this great family in us. And we will serve our master forever.
- Hmm? - he frowned after hearing that the Dragonoid, they're used to be the of the most powerful races of the continent, and said that it's only thanks to having some blood of another race? Can just blood have such power? He was afraid to imagine how strong a representative of this race was. - Ahem, then may I ask what your master's plans are?
- Alas, we do not know his plans. I think enough about this, may I ask if our countries can conclude an alliance?
After a pause he said
- Of course, you can. We can ally, and we are ready to provide you with resources of rank 5 and higher (AN: Here he means 5,4,3,2 and rank 1, not 6,7,8,9 and rank 10)
- May I ask why so generous?
- Consider it as the goodwill of our country. And also our desire to form an alliance with him. We are more than ready to help you in the creation of the country. Do you have any other requests? We will help you if it is not difficult.

After thinking a little Andre said
- If it's not difficult for you, could you give us books on magic? Our race has a couple of promising magicians, but we don't have enough books on magic.
- Of course, I will personally make sure that you get books of magic, to what level do you need books?
-If it doesn't bother you, then perhaps book up to level 10.
- It's not a problem. I'll also probably stay for a couple of days, I think you don't mind.
-Of course, you can stay as long as you want
…
The next day I finally reached Mount Tian. The path was much easier than the last time. Thanks to the wings, I walk the same distance much faster.
When I came to town, Sean met me. He expressed the joy of my people that I had returned. After that, he explained everything that had happened during these days. I gave him the snakes and told him to take care of them. After that, I met a diplomat.
…
PoV Matthew
I went to the *room* of Augustine, I didn't know what nickname to call him, so I chose the most neutral one.
- Hello Lord Augustine, or should I call you King?
"I don't care what you call me diplomat."
- My name is Matthew. Nice to meet you.
"Likewise. What did you want to talk about?"
- I would like to ask about you personally, I hope you don't mind?- I had a desire to find out more about this creature.
"Of course, if the question doesn't bother me."
- Are you a warrior or a magician?
"I am a magician, a warrior of me is quite weak."
- If one of you is a weak warrior, then what about those who are weaker than you as a warrior? Okay, may I ask where you grew up?
"I prefer to not answer."
It made me think, that either means he has an incredible background and he doesn't want to talk about her, or he just doesn't want to talk about something so personal about himself.
- I see, then may I ask at what age you are.
"I think I'm still a child, I hardly reach adolescence"
-What? So you're still a kid?
"Most likely"
It's shocking. If he is so strong as a child, what kind of monster will he become? I doubt very much that he is a child. But just in case, it's better to believe him and start building a good relationship. And even then, he has no reason to lie so ridiculously.
- Unbelievable, you have a great race.
"Not only is my race great."
- ... - I didn't know how to answer - Ahem, can I ask if there are others from your race?
"Not yet."
- Yet? Okay, may I ask what are you going to call your country?
"Hmm, perhaps the Dragon Kingdom."
"Accepted, then are you the Dragon King?" I asked seriously
"You can do that."
- I think that's it, I have to go. We'll talk later.
"Of course."
After that, I left the room, considering how best to proceed.
…
After he left, I started thinking about what I should start doing. I don't have many plans, but the biggest one is to start building castles and strengthening my army, maybe I should try to subdue others, but I'm not sure about that. I decided to prioritize raising the level for now, after all, this is my personal strength, without which I can't go anywhere. And if I believe that hint, in the end, there will be a battle between all the players. Only the full number seems to be known only to me.

Looking at the characteristics, I was somewhat satisfied, but I also really wanted to raise this level. I think it will take weeks, if not months.
