The dragon initially didn't care much about the figure approaching it.
It only bared its teeth, a scorching red glow emanating from deep in its throat, readying to kill the fool who dared appear before it.
But after Lann nonchalantly finished speaking... Smaug's teeth were no longer bared, and the human-like mocking expression on its dragon face vanished.
It was solely its gaze at the figure in its sights, a look that sent shivers down one's spine!
However, Lann seemed completely unaware.
With a 'click,' he reset the crossbow cannon's bolt.
"Looks like I was right, oh great, brutal, powerful King Under the Mountain, the mighty dragon Smaug?"
The dragon had once boasted to the Hobbits of its body and strength atop the Golden Silver Sea of the Lonely Mountain, along with its brutality and irresistibility.
But now, hearing these words from the mouth of someone who had just hit it three times with an unknown weapon, even making it land unsteadily...
"Hiss~"
