"Long time no see, Claudia"

"I didn't expect to come from you at the same time as liberation."

I can hear men and women in calm condition. The voice was felt not from the mouth of the water dragon, but from somewhere else. I can hear a slight treble all over the audible range. Maybe he's establishing a conversation with some kind of magic.

"Yeah. Morning. How do you feel about waking up?

To Claudia's inquiry, the water dragons narrow their eyes. Claudia doesn't seem familiar to me.

"It's not bad."

I'm a little hungry.

Claudia laughs, too, at the words of the male dragon who joked slightly.

"That's more than anything. Can I introduce you to each other?

As the water dragons nodded, Claudia introduced us to each other as it was. The water dragons say their husbands are Pernas and their wives are Invel.

As for me, it was an introduction called fiancée... but the couple of water dragons look like they're taking a serious peek at me.

"I see...... Is that why you're acting with the royal daughters?

Claudia laughs bitterly at Invell's words.

"That's the place. May I take the treasure?

"If the Lord of the Labyrinth and the royal family of Verdogal are all here to receive the treasure, we must not have either."

"From the beginning, we're working together to do that."

"Thanks"

During its long history, Verdogal seems to have emerged various kings. Some wise kings, like King Melvin, and some tyrants, he said.

As a result, he said some generations interrupted the inheritance. However, Claudia, who wanted the stagnation of the situation and the safety of the labyrinth village, did not actively engage with the royal family even if it was Goto.

So... I guess this whole water dragon thing is part of what the royal side has forgotten too... I guess the water dragons haven't forgotten the promise they made with the royal family.

If so, I'd like to hear a lot about the jewels. I was thinking about that, and they turned their gaze from the other side.

"I don't mind handing over the treasure... but I'd like to have a word with my fiancée. All right?

"I don't mind. He wanted to hear a few words from me, too. In the meantime, I was wondering if you could get me some jewelry. No other golem or gargoyle seems to be in place."

"Okay."

To my word, everyone heads to the Spirit Hall. I dropped that back off and then turned to the water dragons.

"Can't you be afraid to face us alone? That gallbladder is good."

"Well... if you're afraid to fight demons, it won't start."

"Really? You are with the devil... The sophistication of its magic, often that much..."

I narrow my eyes slightly dazzled and say, as if Invel were to identify what is beyond the light.

"We are surprised by this. I could say I'm interested in you. I didn't know Claudia acted with her royal daughter and laughed softly."

"Claudia was originally kind. Because I recognized that there was something sweet about me, I don't think there was much I could do about it."

Even if he was badly betrayed and left unrelated, I think he came out worried because the time for sealed liberation was approaching, and it doesn't change the point that he consistently continues to shelter the allies of the people on the ground and the residents of Labyrinth Village.

"... maybe. It's not like we're immortal. Different places to live. We can't even face each other for a while if we fall asleep."

"So I wanted to exchange words with you."

Right...... You're worried about Claudia.

"I want to destroy the Last Guardian and set Claudia free from the labyrinth."

"I see..."

Invell says with his eyes closed.

"Can I ask you about jewels and beads, too?

When I say, they shake their heads vertically.

"But do we know what you want to know?"

"Our promise to the royal family is to keep the four jewels."

"Not just the jewels here?

"Mm-hmm. When the treasure is in the hands of the unsuccessful man, he shows the royal family where it is and has a role to play in getting it back if necessary. That's why I don't know much about seals. It will prevent us from extracting a lot of information."

For example, because you don't know what will happen if you go outside and fight demons. In fact, they were injured in the battle against the demons. That's why I work with the royal family to get things right - that is, I suppose there is also a purpose to keep passing on about the treasure.

Instead of being tied to its charge, the water dragons make this demonic water vein their place of rest.

Guardian of the Spirit Hall of Water. They say they can metastasize wherever they are in the Devil's Light waters. They also say it's possible to get out near Term Wills... There's something like Tefra around here. Whether you say you have a contract and assume the role of guardian of the treasure doesn't seem so disabling.

Nevertheless... the water dragons know where the jewels are.

If so, you should think that you can do the same about the beads. Again, there is a risk of concealing or destroying the beads.

"What about the demons of the day?

"Those guys have been the same for a long time... but I think the times when there was an Alliance Lord were more streamlined than they are now"

"The Allies... what power do they have? I don't even think those guys will follow just because they're strong."

"The Alliance Lord said it would lead the demon to awakening. Nevertheless, they cannot compare it to the lower demons awakened by the Allied Lord and the higher demons who have fulfilled their own awakenings."

I see. The ability of each demon blossoms.

Being able to raise the bottom of a battle is certainly a threat. It leads to the strengthening of an entire species, not of individuals, but of demons. Besides, the water dragons are not the only ones who know about the Allies.

"I'm sorry I didn't mean to be too helpful"

"No. It was helpful"

"Please wait a moment"

Invell dives to the bottom of the water...... slightly before returning. That's how I put what was on my mouth on the scaffold.

Is this a scale? And more than one.

"I hear humans weigh our scales and fangs rarely. This has been reborn before and I intended to choose one that is in as good condition as possible...... can this help you guys?

"Too much"

Dragon scale. Sharpen it out and it can be used for weapons and protective equipment. I have to think about a variety of uses.

Grace and the others also return from the Spirit Palace. A jewel was shining in his hand.

"We've been in this place forever. If there's anything you can do to help us, please come anytime. Step into this place and we'll see."

With those words, the water dragons slowly swam into the vast space that stretched behind the Spirit Hall. Another one along the way - a little water dragon shows his face.

Turning around, he lowered his head to meet the family and disappeared into the water.... I see. Now, it's a family of three.

I have a gaze at everyone who was closing their eyes and dropping off the water dragons. They all have something to think about the sight. You think it's the water dragon's situation, or the discipline that still keeps the promise of a long time ago?

"Shall we go home"

"- Yes."

When he said that, everyone smiled and nodded.

"Dragon Scale......!

"And the water dragon -!"

Deliver the jewels to the royal castle and report back on this backdrop. He later brought the dragon scales into the workshop.

The tension between Viola and Miriam sees the dragon scales rising, but it's amazing inside. Miriam had come to report because she had finished arranging various plaything orders that were in the Chamber of Commerce.

"Sa, can I touch it?

"Go ahead."

Answering, the two take the scales and cheer.

"Ooh...!

"Light -! It's light! I thought it was heavier!

And I'm still excited.

"How to process, what to do"

Alfred smiles bitterly at the sight.

"Hmm... I guess I'll start with protective gear. You think it's a breastplate that can be worn under armor or clothes?"

Anyway, I have enough to go to all the party members. It is neither thick nor light enough to interfere with the movement. I want protective equipment so that I can focus on areas that become steep points, such as the vertebrae in my neck and heart. Enchantment should lead to considerable defensive improvements.

If we can get all our protective gear together and then use the end material for the giant arrows of the Illumhilt, or reinforce the edges of the Mallane saucers, we can strengthen our power in good shape.

"Copy that. Well, then, I'm going to get my gear in order."

"Yeah. And then it's the magic props around the ritual hall... well, I've been thinking about a few things. You think it's a bubbling technique, or a water pumping or flushing technique? I'll show you later."

"That's exciting."

"It's not that difficult."

I would like to prepare jacuzzis, water sliders, saunas, etc. for the eyeballs of the popular bathroom. In popular bathing areas, bathing fees would be taken by offering rare entertainment, and instead such objects would not be placed in Yuji grounds, which would be clearly differentiated by making them places for therapeutic purposes.
