"- Nevertheless, I know the society of human species is diverse, but I don't feel busy these days.Did something happen to other species on the same ship like this? "
When I finished my conversation with the captain and went to my daughters who were having a tea party, Ms. Cicerius asked me that.
"Actually, there was a big war between human species a while ago."
"Hmm? There's been a war. … That said, there's been a major magical encounter in the south of the continent recently. Is that it?"
... the Rogaldo Empire is located in the south of the continent.
After all, if this dragon is as powerful as it is, do you feel that way even if it is far away?
"Maybe that's it. It was a really big war, so the race relationship between the human species has changed dramatically, and there's been more interaction than before."
"Hmm... hello, what do you call" Your Majesty "?"
"Nh, oh, yeah. It made me emperor of the Rogaldo Empire."
"How did it go?"
I was surprised when I first heard that.
The two wives laughed and sandwiched their words.
"I see. I became a dragon king and even an emperor of human species.You seem to be walking quite a strange fate. "
Unfortunately, I do.
I was born in a different world.
"So... I'd like to continue with the previous conversation, okay?"
"Nh, what you wanted to hear was about the gods.--That said, I've already told you a lot about what you know.In the world, a creature called "God" lived.And there are still a few legacies left in this world. "
"Goddess...."
Shinto.
The living age of God.
... that's what Refi said one day.
The forest of demons is the land where God is immersed.
The god is probably a living, powerful creature by the time it is called.
I wonder if the Forest of Witchcraft has anything to do with it.
"You are right to go to the people of the mountains to know them.There are still ruins that may have been created by the Gods.See with your eyes, and hear from the people of the mountains. "
The people of the mountains are another name for dwarf.
I see.
Does this trip fit my purpose perfectly?
"And then... yes, let me show you this too."
That's how she shakes one hand gently, creates a rift in the space, and pushes her arm into it.
That's the equivalent of my item box.
After showing her how to fish for a while, she took it out.
"Nh, that's..."
Analytical skills will tell me what she has.
No... I don't have to use my analytics skills, but at first glance, I know what it is.
What she has is a bone-like texture (...), a samurai cane (...).
To a familiar design, this terrible intimidation.
I know him well.
And Miss Cicerius said.
"This is the Staff of God."
Wand:
Quality:????
The wand, huh?
... in this state, there may be more swords and axes.
"It's something you found on the next continent... that looks familiar to you, doesn't it?"
"... ahh"
One nod, I also open the item box and take out the spear of God from inside.
"! That's...."
"This is the spear of God. I got it from the oldest dragon, Rhodanus, in the Dragon Village."
"I see... did Grandpa Rodanus hide something like this?"
... from what I've heard, Miss Cicerius seems to be out of the Dragon Village, but from this reaction, didn't she know about him?
"Wow, what is that? Did you even have that kind of weapon?"
"It's kind of a terrible weapon...."
"Wow, it's a pretty bad weapon, so I rarely get it out of the item box.--Did you not know about this? "
To my words, Miss Cicerius answers with a headache.
"... it was only a few decades ago that Atashi got his wand.I've never seen it in the village, and if I didn't know there was a spear in the village, I wouldn't talk about it.And... that spear was probably given to you by some kind of gossip when you became the Dragon King? "
"Oh, I heard the dragon king left it to me decades ago."
"Then you wouldn't have told me what happened to Atashi.That grandfather is quite stubborn.... well, there was one in the village.I was pretty happy when I dug up the cane. "
Ha, and I'm smiling bitterly at her with a big sigh and a subtle face.
"Well, isn't it nice to meet you here?"
"... nh, that's really true. Yeah, let's just say I'm glad I found some good knowledge today.Dragon King, can I see that? "
When she handed over the spear to Ms. Cicerius, she carefully checked all the corners.
"... the same design, definitely the same maker as the wand.It seems to be made of bone, but there is a slight difference in the quality of the magic that is hidden.Are the materials different?And the accuracy of the whole magic circuit.This isn't really just an area where people can do it.... "
Her eyes, which are immersed in the analysis of the spear, gradually shine.
The smile grew bigger, and eventually there was a full smile on his mouth.
"It's fun, so the world is the best.What a leap of heart.Thank you, Dragon King. You showed me something good. "
"Did you find out anything?"
She puts the returned spear into the item box and asks her questions, her eyes shine brightly.
"Regardless of the wand, the spear is a complete tool of battle.That there were enemies.I don't suppose we just made this for viewing.--Something happened (...). Something I had to build in the distant past, something like this. "
…………
"I don't know what that is.I've seen a lot of them, and I've looked into them, but I've never seen any descriptions of them.But... now that you're attacking me, you should be able to get more information than before.Let's start over from here.Hey, Russia is suddenly having fun! "
That's how she gets up.
"What's wrong?"
"It's been a long time, so I'll let you stay here.If you stay too long, you'll be a little miserable for the others anyway.Above all, now I have a big reason why I can't stay still! "
"... I'm sorry. I wanted to talk more."
"Fufu, I'm sorry, Miss Zayenne.But this isn't a complete goodbye.I'm also interested in your demonic forest, so I'm going to play inside. "
"At that time, now we'll have a delicious tea!"
I'm going to have a lot of fun!
Thank you, Miss Nell, Miss Lewyn.
After my daughters have spoken, I will also speak.
"Well... if your curiosity is throbbing, there's nothing you can do about it.Thank you for telling me so much. "
"I just want to thank you, Dragon King.If there's anything I can tell you, I'll tell you.Say hello to the Lady Lefiscios.- Bye, guys. Thank you for your time. "
At the end of her speech, she left the scene and asked the sailor who was waiting nearby where there was a hatch to go out- eventually a giant dragon appeared outside the airship, and it slowly moved away.
It has already been a few days since Miss Cicerius left.
That encounter was really meaningful.
That alone would say that this trip was the right one.
Though it was trouble at first, it was a graceful journey in the sky without any problems afterwards.
--Except for one person who started to break.

"My husband, it's not good. My love for the bath exploded and Nell's Intelligence started to deteriorate dramatically!"
"... nh, I can't help it. You should take it regularly in the bath.If I were you, I'd already be so nasty. "
... it's taken longer than our previous journey on the airship, but it seems that this has shaken Nell's bath tolerance gauge.
"Whoa, whoa, calm down, Nell. The dwarf toward which I'm heading is in the volcanic zone, which means there's a hot spring flowing from the land pattern.So when we get there, let's go in quickly, huh? "
I spoke to a slightly friendly merchant dwarf aboard this airship.
Sato is located at the foot of the volcano, so the natural water is springing there, making it a source of tourism.
In my words, while sitting in a chair, Nell, who was lying on the wall in a weird outfit, stood up.
"Really!? Wow, it's a hot spring!Lew, En-chan, it's a bath!It is our staple food and indispensable for everyday healing!Yes, a bath is a tranquilizer! "
"Nell, I love baths too, but unfortunately, Nell and Shi-chan are the only ones who feed on them.No, I don't think Si-chan is eating anything else, so technically, it's just Nell. "
"I don't care about details! We're all alive in the bath, protected by the bath.Yes, let's all worship the bath.... "
I didn't expect to be protected by a bath.
"... even though you're like that, you can endure it well in the country.The other house doesn't have a bath in particular, does it? "
Nell tells me that the rooms he spends in the Kingdom of Arysia are not equipped with baths.
In the first place, the world and the bath itself are luxury products.
Everyday luxury is limited to our homes, volcanic zones, and special environments.
"Ah, um, I was patient before... but now that my home in the dungeon is stained with a bath, I can't stand it anymore, so I actually said selfishness and had my dorm make a bath.It was selfish of me to say unusual things, so my request came through quite well. Ehehe "
I knew you liked the bath a lot, but I didn't think you were that much of a bath extremist...
Well, there's no doubt that Nell is also a "brave man", and it might be great enough for such a request to go through... but I feel a little sorry for the face of the church.
At that time, Nell must have had his eyes full.
It has an atmosphere that can never be said "no."
"... that's it. Nell's my guy after all."
"... nh, I agree. I see a lot at home."
They're telling me, Nell.
"Fuhaha, say whatever you want!I am the Bath Demon King!Everything is just for the bath! "
--A few hours after that, I forgave the bath extremists by myself.
The airship arrived at the dwarf's village.
