Leech was reading a book in the shade of a tree in the courtyard.
The late Baron Wado had truly been a seasoned magical beast enthusiast. He had collected a great deal of information and biographical tales, the majority of which were about dragons. Leech even found some of Baron Wado's personal notes, which explicitly stated that dragons were creatures of supreme intelligence and immense longevity—not magical beasts.
The notes also mentioned that a dragon's power is tied to its age—the older, the stronger. Thus, one should never provoke an ancient dragon, not even with the might of an entire nation.
If you encountered an elder dragon, your only option was to pray, for humanity stood no chance.
'He writes so well, it's as if he saw them with his own eyes.' Leech skimmed through Baron Wado's notes. He figured the Baron must have been obsessed to a certain degree, and absolutely loved world-building.
