The story of the man does not end there.
More shocking stories continued to flow out of his mouth.
“According to rumors, she is also called the first witch.”
“……”
The entity he encountered inside the illusion magic.
The entity that warned him not to trust the dragon.
She was the first witch.
What other words can be added?
‘My father....’.
Ian was very confused.
Fran Paige is his father.
He never thought about it.
There's no reason to do it.
‘The first witch?’
How is that possible? It is said that the first witch was the teacher of the dragons. With that, it meant that he was a human who had lived at least thousands of years ago. How could such a person meet Ian's mother and give birth to her? Did he live for thousands of years?
‘…..It is also not entirely impossible.’
There was someone like that before his eyes.
An expert craftsman who had lived for an incredible time.
The man who wants to die now.
“Are you okay? Your Continents ...”
The same guy talked to Ian.
He must have seen Ian's expression.
As the continent changes drastically, the reaction is logical.
“…..I'm doing fine. Please continue the story.”
Ian calmed himself down.
There are still many stories left to hear.
“Before that, I want a definite answer from you.”
The man was also not free to share information. From his point of view, Ian's identity was also important. If he was truly a descendant of Fran Paige, the man also had a desperate request to do even though it meant holding onto the tip of Ian's pants.
“Are you really a descendant of Fran?”
“I Ian Paige.”
“Again? It just means ...”
“As you think.”
Ian drew the line at that moment.
He saw no reason to reveal that he was a son.
At least that's what he thought this time.
“A descendant has been looking for us...”.
The man nodded with an expression that was hard to read.
He spoke with a glint in his eyes.
“Are his descendants also able to use the power of language?”
“I can, but still less.”
“Then by chance, can you lift up the gift of eternal life that is not a blessing, that Fran once gave us, the expert craftsmen? If you want, I'll give my all to avenge you. ”
The man's voice and tone were filled with despair.
Ian doesn't know how.
“This is an impossible task for me right now.”
“…..Was it? No, I understand.”
Desperation quickly turned into disappointment.
Soon, a sense of loss began to appear.
“At one time, we were the best craftsmen, and Fran had borrowed our skills and in return, gave us the blessing of eternal life. What a real blessing at that time. We are very excited at the thought of learning and leaving many masterpieces unceasing.”
“What do you mean by actually borrowing your skills?”
“Dragon, Fran always misses dragon.”
“Dragon?”
Fran Paige, Ian's father, misses a dragon who is like their first disciple?
The man continued to speak because Ian had trouble understanding what was being said.
“He craves the perfect nature of the dragon body. In the human body, there was a limit no matter how strong the power could be used, but in the dragon body, it was impossible to even be possible. He often talks about things like that.”
“Dragon body...”
Even Ian had experienced the body of a dragon. Wasn't the spirit of Resees Rajendu, the king of the Time Storage dragons, a body that had displayed incredible strength despite not having any power or not having the ability to use its true nature?
“He wants to overcome his limitations as a human being and has borrowed our skills for that purpose. Creations that can increase its power, I believe it is called an artifact, now this.”
The story is that he chose an artifact to overcome the limitations of being human. It seemed the same reason as Ian's reason. Although there are some differences, the overall theme is the same.
‘It was also for me that I wanted to protect myself from dragons.’
That was the same reason why Ian wanted expert craftsmen. In order not to be a pushover by a dragon, all he needed to be stronger than the 8th class he was in his previous life.
Therefore, as one method, he wanted a special artifact that was more powerful than any other artifact known in the world.
‘It really ….. Weird.’
Inevitably Ian felt strange because like the first witch, who was probably his father, Ian made the same choice.
“Then from some point in time, Fran went from us. I mean, he's completely hidden himself from this world. And after Fran disappeared, those dragons also disappeared. I'm not sure what happened between those two super creatures, but maybe it wasn't a coincidence.”
The man also tells a story similar to the spirit of Reees Rajendu who lived in memory thousands of years ago.
“With the fact that you came to look for me based on that diary and that you have found this place at Craven's request, there must be something you want from us. Like Fran, am I right? ”
“I won't deny it.”
Hiding him is inappropriate, he thought.
Ian answered honestly.
“I need help from expert craftsmen.”
“Can I ask you the reason need help?”
“…..It's similar to my ancestor.”
“Dragon, maybe?”
Ian nodded in lieu of an answer.
At the same time, the man's eyes narrowed.
“Did the dragons reappear?”
“I think so.”
“Then...”.
The man asked as if he wanted to be sure.
“How about Fran....?”
“I've also met him.”
“Oh, is that true?”
“It seems like there are some restrictions in his movements, but he did appear before me. He even told me not to trust dragons.”
Ian truthfully recounted all the details of his encounter with Fran Paige, the first witch. He keeps his personal relationship, but he doesn't hide anything about him.
‘I must first reach my destination.’
Ian came to this place to obtain artifacts. In order to achieve that, he understood that expert craftsmen also needed encouragement.
‘I have to make them help me no matter what.’

They are unable to meet Fran Paige, whom they have waited for many times in a lifetime, and that the only one who can help the craftsmen is Ian Paige. He wanted to instill such hope and confidence in them.
“Do not believe in dragons, do not believe in dragons..
The man spewed out those words.
There did not seem to be a single minute of disbelief.
“…..So, you came to look for me and my people to prepare yourself for the chance to meet the dragons? Borrowing our skills like Fran has done for a long time?”
