"--I'm going to do a grassland survey with me on the ground."

Islafil has begun to regain power, as demonstrated, and has various abilities. It is inevitable that it will be buried as it is. So I think it's not bad to accompany me to the grasslands and find a way to harness that power.

To be specific, it would be greatly appreciated if we could use this sturdy body to help domesticate the quasi-monster species. I forgot, but this is a dragon, and even if you don't have the ability to use beasts, you can get closer.

White-breeding sheep The breeding of the grasslands that I am about to visit is a popular activity. Can we analyze this from the dragon's perspective and reproduce it in this city? If possible, we can take another big step. Not only will it be possible to produce white-wool sheep's wool, but it will also be able to use its know-how to breed other sub-monster species.

Of course, the real purpose of Islafil is not to live and contribute to this pom d'or permanently, but to redeem arrogant sins and return to its original form by living rightfully. However, in the sense of fulfilling its purpose, it should never be a detour to get the insights that cannot be obtained in this city. Rather, if you can contribute to the city properly, the day when you can return to the original shape will be closer. ……maybe.

Yes, I explained, Islafil groaned with his arms crossed.

"On my ground ... and for humans ..."

"Do you hate it?"

"Um, I feel like it's being used somehow ..."

"Israfil, compassion has to be words for people. If you work for someone, it's something that returns to you. It's a dragon, but you've lived in this city for over a year, so you know that. "

"Well, there's no denying ... uh ..."

I guess it's such an annoyance, but I don't intend to say anything more than this, as the values are different.

Islafil's mother, Gabriel, also said that it was the Holy Dragon's duty to protect the vulnerable, but the actual life of Islafil was the opposite. He was arrogant and could easily shake the hand of the vulnerable seeking help. So there is now the punishment. He has fallen into the shape of a person who has received punishment and has lived in this city. It seems that his character has become quite round, but his roots are not likely to change.

No, he's hesitating to change. After all, the real age is 500 years old. Values evolved over the years are hard to change. If you change it, you'll feel like you've abandoned your previous life-Tatsuo.

The older people get older, the more stubborn and troublesome they become. However, he is not necessarily evil. However, having a flexible mindset is a hassle, and it only shows up in your everyday actions as arrogance.

I was 35 years old, and I think it was a sign of that now. It only came to an end to the common sense of toyokumo and wished for the release of the beastman, so he had no more time to stick to himself.

The 500-year-old Islafil, on the other hand, does not want to be here. It is the result of a combination of unwilling circumstances, albeit self-owned. Therefore, it's hard and wrong to work for others.

"Well, if you don't like it, then."

"Wait wait, wait wait!"

When I turned my heels and tried to leave, Islafil clung from behind.

"I'm looking for my power! Why is it so easy to withdraw?"

"No, because it wouldn't be good to force yourself ..."

"Don't give up! Where did my passion go when I was looking for my scales?"

"No, that's because it took human life ... now it's different ..."

"This great idiot!"

"Yes ..."

I don't know what but I got angry ... When she tilts her head because she doesn't know, Islafil keeps pointing at me.

"Even if it isn't for human life, you should look for my power in considering the development of the city! But just getting on the track, is it already a successful person? No one has forgotten his ambition and passion! "

"Yes ..."

It is absolutely correct, but is there any point in this situation that this guy is told? No, no. No one thinks how. Still, it seems to be a lot of hustle, and it seems to be troublesome to refute poorly. Let's match here with the acclaimed empty Islafil.

"Get hot, human! Get hot! I want to make this city even better!"

"Well, yes ..."

"Then don't pull it down easily! Don't give up! Sticky!"

"Huh ..."

"What do you need to do now! Look, there is !? You're looking for my power !? Look, look!"

“…………”

In short, this stupid dragon just pretends to be reluctant, and you really want to help? Do you want me to rely on you? Did you just make a lot of money just to increase your gratitude?

Me, troublesome!

I was like this. A person who likes the situation that is needed and depends on others and makes meaningless conclusions. I'm very sick. I feel sorry.

No, I would be grateful if you could help me, and I would naturally drop my head if I needed to. However, this time, it is not a level to bow down and ask, but only to propose that Islafil can return to its original form more quickly. But what do you want me to say?

To support that speculation, Islafil looks up at me with his cheeks and hopeful eyes. It feels like a dog that has been ordered to wait.

I don't want to say it. I just don't want to say "please" to such a guy. I have pride too ...

But there is a point in Islafil's words. If you think about the future, you should be more passionate about developing the city. No, not just the development of the city. There is also a great purpose to release the beasts who suffer on the ground. In the first place, the planned activities in the grasslands are for that purpose.

If so, what do you do if you can't drop your head to Islafil?

"... Islafil ... please help me. Oneigashimasu"

I was disgusted because I was too disgusted, but I was satisfied with the Islafil. She shows a smile like a large flower and looks happy.

"If you ask me so much, I can't help! I'll lend you my strength! I'm honored to be helped by this great Holy Dragon, man!"

"... yes, it's already ... yes ..."

I was almost crushed by the stress, but I managed to endure it. Because it's an adult ... It's an adult that can endure no matter how much mockery it is.

Well, anyway, it's not a bad result. Let's go forward.

"By the way, is there an understanding of beastmen in the grasslands?"

Asked by Islafil, I shake my head.

"There is no active expulsion, but it doesn't seem very good. There are no elves or dwarves and almost everything is human."

"So, is this okay?"

The little hand holds the corner of the head. Indeed, the current Islafil has begun to return, so it looks almost like a beast. Nevertheless, it is only natural to be worried about visiting lands that do not like beastmen.

"That's reassuring. There's a way."

"Is that so? Don't say, keep your robe on your head all the time."

"No way. With robes and hats, you can't hide the fine corners."

"Then, how is it?"

"I use a device that changes the perception from the outside. It is a ring-shaped device, and when it is attached, it looks like it looks like it is from the outside. `` It can be seen as something that is not about the corner or tail. ''

Although the device was frankly described, it was actually a joke goods from Jindai, and it was often used at parties. Items that can't show the appearance of giants and monsters, but can make larger or smaller parts of the body.

With this, even a beast-like figure of Islafil will look like a human girl from the side.

"Hmm, I don't really understand, but if you have that, you look like a human?"

"That's what it is.

Okay, it was when Islafil nodded.

"Eh, is there such a thing !?"

The girl's voice rose from behind. Looking back, Nao was curious and curious.
