Dorei Tensei: Sono Dorei, Saikyou no Moto Ouji ni Tsuki

Episode 13 Meet Slaves, Some Adventurers

It is about ten days by horse from the merchant capital Mid River.

This is a settlement dotted with a few small houses in the mountains.

Now it's not popular, the house is empty, and it's better to take it away beautifully than to be vandalized. Probably escaped with the Argis dragon.

"There's only one settlement left," Celestia said in hassle.

"Don't look so disgusting. You want to attract top adventurers, don't you?

"Besides, you don't have to be that high."

"I don't think that's what anyone said when they talked about the Enraged Dragon Elias' crusade at the Guild Certification."

Celestia tried to say something, but she stopped and just turned red and stared at me.

--- Oh, no.

I can't keep up with Celestia... if I don't change the subject, it's pretty bad.

"The Argis dragon crusade was not the only request that came from the Cassandra kingdom. That kind of strength would take a lot. I'm sure the top adventurers and magicians will be there. In the meantime, if we can make connections with them, it will be useful later."

"... yes, Wallace is a slave, but he knows a lot more about the Crown system, adventurers and guilds than I do, and it's amazing."

"---and you're angry?

"I'm not angry. I'm just praising you for being amazing."

I wonder if it is my feeling that my voice contains anger.

When I was Arus, I remembered that Dallas, the Knight Commander, was angry at me for thinking about how I felt about him. It's been a long time since then, and I don't seem to be growing at all.

"Hey, hey, what's wrong with you? Are you okay?" Celestia shook my shoulders and apologized, "I'm sorry I said too much."

"No, I was just thinking. I'm sorry."

As you lower your head to Celestia, you will hear a cry that will tear the atmosphere apart.

"It's not me!

"I know. This is the voice of an Argis dragon."

The scream sandwiched a mountain, as if it had been heard from the other side.

Luckily, the horse didn't flee even in his present voice.

"We're on our way. Celestia, don't ever leave me."

"What are you talking about, Wallace? You know you can't leave me.

◆ ◇ ◆

The voice of the Argis dragon did not stop while he was running through the mountain, and it was thought that he was already at war with someone. All I could hear was the voice of an Argis dragon, and since there was no explosion, I quickly realized it wasn't a magical battle.

Fighting was taking place in the last settlement, where a dragon of Argis was surrounded by six armored warriors, and a man thought to be leading it, pointing a sword at the ground a little further away, and watching.

The Argis dragon's epidermis is hard and resistant to physical attacks and magic, but magic is generally considered advantageous. It is hard to cross the dragon without magic, just the six of us.

"It's kind of scary to hide your face with armor," Celestia says, hiding behind my back.

They are all united in purple armor, completely covering their heads and toes, and showing remarkable movement under control. Each and every one of them is stronger than the median adventurer, but collaboration is perfect, backed by trust.

"Everyone looks like a woman, and it's better to keep their faces hidden."

It's creepy that only the eyes are hidden in a hollowed-out mask, but the back is not that big, and all the armor is women.

The Commander, who was far away, seems to have noticed us, but he won't mind keeping the fight going.

"Wallace, you don't have to help me, do you?" Celestia said in a slightly frightened voice.

"That Argis dragon looks like O.S., and it won't be a problem."

The Argis dragon is more dangerous to a female than a male. The temper is rough, and sometimes even males attack and eat.

They attack when they don't have enough nutrients to make babies, or when they make a little noise during child-rearing. Well, in terms of seasons, it just hits them right now.

"Hey, Wallace, did you hear anything about the Argis dragon?

"Really?" I heard a voice from a distance, unlike the dragon in front of me. It was also approaching us with great momentum.

"Hey, hey, hey, look at that! They're coming this way!" Celestia grabbed my arm with a impatient voice, not like a king or queen.

Celestia is pointing at me in the face of the impossible, as if the heavens and the earth had turned over.

There was a dragon spreading its wings and descending suddenly.

Even in the distance, we can see that it is bigger than the dragon that is fighting in front of us now.

"... oh, that's the... female of the Argis dragon. It's big on boulders."

"Not if you're impressed. They're coming this way. We need to get out of here!

"It's no use running now, we'll catch up."

"Wallace, kill that dragon! Kill him now!

It seems difficult to keep a normal mind in front of a real dragon.

On serious orders from Celestia, I found my body completely in combat mode. This is the power of the Blood Deed Curse, and the smile leaks without feeling it for the first time.

"What are you laughing at? I can't do it anymore!"

Celestia sat down with her head in her arms.

If you don't even try to sing magic, you can't help it.

This is the first big thing that could affect your future journey.

"Stay there for a while," I said gently.

When I was Ars, I was able to finish this with a long range magic shot, but I can't do that right now. But it is also a good opponent to try this flesh.

The female dragon shook huge nails at me.

A blow from a sudden drop.

Originally, about 100 adults would be blown away, but now I can take it with one sword.

The moment my nails and sword hit me, the high sound of armor spread, and countless cracks entered the ground with shock waves that drove my feet into the ground.

"Not bad. Next, we need to see how much of that epidermis will be cut."

This female dragon is too large to be slashed with a single blow.

I put magic into my sword, flashing vertically from the dragon's head to tail, and struck a real blow.

Unlike before, there was no sound, no shock waves, no flashy shards, and the surrounding area felt quiet.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The female dragon does not move.

Not a drop of blood drips, just doesn't move.

I kicked the dragon's foot, saying it was strange that it would not react if it wasn't slashed.

It leaks out of my mouth without thinking, "I think it's slashed well."

When the female Argis dragon split in two from the head, it bled out and fell to the left and right.
