I leave the lake and my mountain and leave behind my friends and the king and his kingdom. Now I am entering the lands of the Visigoths.

Flying, what a great feeling.

I'm not hiding anymore!

I am myself and I let myself be lazily carried away by the hot air currents. On my left I see the inland sea, La Mare Nostre (Mediterranean) in the distance and I decide to follow the coasts.

Here and there, I see a bell tower covered with white stucco and a bell in the cross. The tiles are red and where I go, I hear the bells ringing. It's funny, funny.

I have visited some villages several times just to hear the bells.

Ding Dong Ding Ding Dong, Funny!

And I pass

And I'm coming back again!

People start running happily at my sight. It looks like they're jumping on the spot! How I want to play! Bulls also start running, but not as fast as horses.

I also practice pirouettes in the sky and I love it. I'm really starting to control the flight. I'm overexcited!

Oh, a deal! Mm, it smells like fresh bread! The village is not too big and there is a church. It's mass and a lot of people are in it, I'm going to ask for some bread or sweets and fruit, kindly.

SPLAF, I landed on the church square and the bells haven't rung yet!

Priest: "And I repeat to you my brothers, You must ask the Lord's forgiveness and remain faithful to the commandments of Jesus.

The devil or the Beast prowls around and can strike at any time. That is why donations to the church are mandatory to help your neighbours and offer shelter and food to the poor. "

A faithful: "But my father, you tell us the same speech all the time! Beast here, Beast there, it only exists in your imagination and you ask the local lord for more and more taxes for worship!"

Priest:" You will see, believe me, she is closer to you than you think. She may even be here at this door!"

BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM!

The crowd is laughing! HAHAHAHAHAHA

BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM

CREEEEEAAAAAAAAAKKK I opened the door and saw a hundred faces bleaching with fear.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"

all at heart!

Me: "Sorry to frighten you, don't you have some bread? I'm hungry!"

Priest: "As I told you, the Beast is at our doorstep. Run away!"

But I was blocking the only way out!

People started moaning and begging! On their stomachs.

I said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you!"

Priest: "Go away!"

Me: "My father, I am a Christian! Look, I make my sign of the cross and I repeat my prayer every night"

The Priest is stunned.

You made the bell and the censer. He threw holy water at me and I didn't move.

"WHAT do you want Beast...?" The priest whimpered.

"Me? I'm not an animal, I'm Ivan. I'd like some bread and honey and a saucepan. I'll pay in game! I'm just passing through! I don't want to hurt you!"

The tension subsided and the people begged to let them pass.

I stood on the side and they all ran to lock themselves in the fortified house. at the top of the hill. The priest, more curious, stayed:

"So you're a talking dragon! And you believe in God? Where were you baptized?" asked the priest.

"Uh, 1971 in Liege, in the north. I'm 6 years old and I want to play around here. "

Padre: "Look, you don't belong here! Thank you for sparing people and..."

"But I didn't kill anyone, I don't eat people! I like vegetables!

I'm looking for a big saucepan to make broth!"

"Take this old bell from the shed, and it can be used as a pot and take this basket of offerings, there is bread, cakes and spices and honey."

"Thank you, Father. If you want, I can make you some ice cream, as it's hot here!"

And I went to the centre of the village and shouted, "Thank you!"

I then blew on the water fountain which froze and froze completely. The inhabitants will be able to have ice cubes for the next 2 days.

I saw a forest and found a clearing and settled for the night. In the distance I hear hunting horns, horses and armour rattling and the barking of hunting dogs.

But I didn't care and I made a big fire on which I was about to cook a boar to make ham. He was diced by my claws, which were as sharp as swords.

I place the bell and make a fire underneath and cook the bacon in its fat.

Men, hunters or soldiers, about twenty of them watch me cook my game but no human bodies.

I'm on a kind of stone promontory with a small cave cave cave. The stones here are ochre and softer than further north. There are palm trees there and there and a lot of cactus. It's drier here. Water and springs are also becoming scarcer.

Suddenly torches are lit and a procession of men with forks, gardening tools and arrive in large numbers.

Will they turn the vegetables over at night? Make their fields?

I fly away and land in front of them.

I am 4 to 5 times bigger than they imagined and a fear was felt on their faces!

I shout: "It's very early to go to the fields. Can I help you?"

People: " DEATH TO THE DRAGON! And they're running at me!"

Pic Pic, hihihihi, they look like chickens tickling me. AHAHA HA HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I twisted on the tickle floor

"Stop it, I surrender!"

"2 I said 2! "

"You tickle me, HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA."

The strongest men were afraid!

"SAVE WHOEVER CAN! He's too strong!"

Me: "Wait, keep going, I like to play with you!"

Many had left their tools on the spot So, in the morning, I gather the whole package and I arrive at the village square where I drop the tools!

I shout: "GROAAAR! You forgot this. Come back and tickle me again. It's fun! It's fun!

Come on, come on! That's not nice!"

The villagers were terrified.

Then there were orphans and a crippled kid, not fast enough to go hide and I catch him between me and the alley.

Hello you!

The boy fell to the ground, unable to get up, the crutch fell further away.

"Oh, you had a hard time walking, I see. Do you want to play with me?" I said to the unfortunate man

"To what?" Asked the boy.

"Do you have any cards? Or dice? "

"No," he replied.

"Ah I know, we need black and white stones and we're going to make a grid in the sand. It's called ladies. Can you play checkers?"

"No No?" replied the crippled kid.

"It doesn't matter, I'll explain the rules to you."

"Hey, what if I lose you eat me? "said the boy.

"Oh no! I don't eat people! Stop this nonsense!! I'm not a cannibal!"

"We played for an hour, then two and other lost children saw it and asked, you don't eat us? Huh?"

then one asked to climb on me and I was happy.

Four kids were riding me. It was fun.

"Come on, boo-hoo!" HAHAHAHA

"Come on, dragon, spit fire!"

They put a pile of wood and we were at the end of the village but still in the village. The villagers were scared and they didn't care about the children.

I had brought some wild boar and the carcass was cut up and roasted on the fire.

No one dared to approach, except children. We spent the night further up the hill in an old barn full of hay. The children slept on me, warm and safe.

When the rooster crowed, soldiers were crowded, but not enough and they arrived at the barn and threw torches to smoke me, but it was the children who suffered.

"Stop it, I shouted! There are children!"

A soldier replied: "No one wants it, let them roast in hell like you! They are servants of the Evil One."

The fire hurt me but I was resistant and the barn was transformed into an inferno

The children clung to me and I went back into the pile to break down the walls.

I made the burning straw fly, and the burning doors shattered, but I was received by a flight of arrows bouncing off my scales.

And I climbed on the roof, finally on the part not yet burned. And I blew frost to cool their heat.

Their courage fell into their shoes and the children were able to escape!

I left very quickly. They're getting more and more vindictive!
