"Dragon, please change the terms. We are companions on this journey, and I won't give up on any of them!"
Shard resolutely said, while stuffing Mia into the inside pocket of his coat, ready to act.
To be precise, whether a Flame Demon or a Dragon is stronger depends on their age and specific race. But since they were able to defeat the Flame Demon on their first visit, under the "Traveler Mode" where it's unclear if the enemy was weakened or they were strengthened, perhaps they could also defeat a Dragon.
Clearly, Shard wasn't the only one who thought this way; the golden horn of the Unicorn was already glimmering, and the Witch was even angrier than Shard.
"Change the terms?"
The enormous dragon head pondered for a moment:
"Then it's only money, lots and lots of gold, or a powerful Relic, or valuable ancient books."
Shard obviously didn't have these, and although the Witch had brought some tools that might help, they weren't extremely valuable.
