Episode 268: To Earth Height

"Dragon!? No way......"

"Liar! That's... impossible..."

……

Roy and Allie were stunned by my words and Shirley looked pale and trembled without saying a word.

"With the dragon... I heard rumors... but I didn't know there was anything else Hal had defeated..."

"Was there really a dragon?

"I heard rumors in Pope Lars that no way..."

"Besides, it doesn't look like the whole thing. That's why I'm going. Everybody just wait here."

There's no more protection for me and everyone than the other guy is a dragon. In addition, the existence of a dragon is likely to overwhelm the target just by confronting him, and his body will not be able to understand what he is saying. That's just a nasty opponent.

Besides, Shirley will have trauma against dragons who have lost their parents and have had a life-threatening experience of their own.

"No!! Hal, if anything happens to you..."

"Shirley......"

Shirley trembles and grabs my arm.

I hate to worry about Shirley but what can I do......

"Then we'll all have to go!

"Rat!?

"What are you talking about!? You know what I mean? A dragon!?

"Sonnin, are you worried about me?

"Chi, no! That's more of a dragon!?

"But there's a senior Hal who defeated the dragon, isn't there?

Everyone's gaze gathered on me in Rat's words.

"You think it's safest to be with Senior Hal, who defeated the dragon? Besides, I saw the power of everyone in the dungeon, but they were all stronger than I'd ever seen before. So if we don't win, isn't it over? Then I think it's better if we all go."

Silence flows through Laat's words.

Maybe Rat is right, for sure. But fighting dragons would be pretty dangerous.

"You're right about Rat. We should all go."

"Brother!?

"Right. Plus, if they're dragons, they'll use Earth Height artifacts, not without winning."

"Mr. Roy..."

Roy agrees with Will on Rat's point.

"... Me too... Hal, I'm going with you more than just waiting for your return!

"Shirley......"

Shirley raises her voice desperately as she suppresses her trembling body.

"I'm going with you, too, Roy!

"If your brother says so, so do I.!

"I will stand up to the dragon as a witch too!

"Guys..."

Everyone will have anxiety, they will be afraid, yet they are making their feelings waver.

"Then it's settled!

"Rat...... ok? Until you have nothing to do with Earth Height."

"I'll take the boat! Plus, when I get back here, my master will piss me off!... Oh, I'm sure you'll be pissed off even if you go"

Everyone laughed at Rat's words. The air soothed a little.

Totally, what about the guy in the lat?

"All right, then let's go! To Earth Height!"
