Hero’s Redo ~ A Hero That Once Saved the World Reborn as a Girl ~

The Dragon's Nest - that's where the dragons lived, which has existed since my active days. There are different kinds of dragons in this world… For example, green dragons and red dragons exist, but it is said that all kinds of dragons gather together to live in that dragon's nest. I think it's pretty big because one of the mountain ranges is a whole nest, but given the size of their bodies, maybe they're still small.

The dragon's nest is a little further west from the centre of the continent, a mountain range with countries hanging on their crotches, beginning with the Kingdom of Bordeaux. Even so, it's not long on the side, it's just a long mountain range vertically, so it's not enough to stop people from legging. By the way, it could be this mountain range that I lived in until I was lured out by the Karins. There was a distance from the central part of the mountain range where the dragon lived, so almost none of us encountered it.

"I'm tired......!

"I can't walk anymore. I don't want to walk!

Two people, Karin and Dieria, who also breathed incessantly, sat down on the floor to collapse. Siel and Rubias are in the middle of silent loads, not even energetic to utter their words.

"You're not dirtier than I thought."

The one we visited for a break was the cabin I used to live in. Looking through the cabin, it didn't look so different from when I left. I thought they were being vandalized by wildlife or demons because they were vacant for a long time, but there's no sign of anything breaking in. Probably because my signs are still dark, those creatures didn't come near me on guard. There is dust on the boulder, but as long as I clean it a little, it's fine. Extraordinary accommodation is a superior category.

Now, let's briefly explain how we got here. After we cleared up the Gotagotta in Strom Kingdom, we went back to the city and started getting ready for our journey. We made a long holiday application to the Alliance, leaving the maintenance and funding of the house to Maria and Sepia, and we proceeded on foot to the Dragon's Nest. Yes, on foot. We decided not to use any flying magic this time, but to walk on our own feet. That's not just a walk, either. Continue walking for a long time until you run out of strength at a rate that is about to run lightly. Because it's what I carry all the way to my luggage in my arms and armor, my face other than mine quickly got buttered. But I don't compromise to build strength and ankles. While I pinched my break many times, I stubbornly did not allow only the use of flying magic. Recently, I remember flying in the sky all the time, so I chose to walk even in the sense of regaining my temper.

This is the result. As soon as I took off my weapon and unloaded the tool bag I was carrying, I fell asleep on the floor and stopped moving.

…………

Silent times flow. I tried to speak up, and Ciel and Dieria were already asleep. Karin and Rubias seem to be awake, but it also looks like it's only a matter of time before they fall because they're upset.

"Oh man..."

If I let it go, I might freeze and catch a cold. At any rate during the day, it gets pretty cold around here at night, so we just have to light the fire. As I clasped my shoulders, I went outside the cabin and took to the stowage yard where the pile of firewood had been piled up.

"Good. Looks like we can still use it."

Most of them were exposed to rainstorms and rotted because they were left unattended, or worms gushing and useless, but fortunately they didn't seem to just wipe them out. Not as good as they are, but to the boulders. Now that I'm tired too, I wanted you to spare me picking up firewood by myself, so it would help, to be honest. Returning to the cabin with some firewood, you fall into the enclosure and magically light a fire. The patch and firewood exploded and a little smoke drifted, but that also became less as the warmth spread.

In the meantime, take the meat and just a little seasoning obtained on the road from the tool bag. When I sprinkled salt and seared the meat I stabbed on the skewer, the four of them woke up completely asleep whether they had been invited by the smell.

"Mmm... nice smell"

"... Sounds like you were asleep at some point"

"I'm sorry I even let you prepare your meal, Master"

"It smells delicious... if you say so, you didn't eat it."

If you're here to train, don't use the magic kind for your life as hard as you can, you can work out in many ways by using your own body alone, but it's also a hassle to go and get water from now to the river, so let's do it magically this time. I wash the pot I used before, add the tea leaves and steam them for a while, then pour the tea into each cup they have waiting now or now. I've been walking quite a distance, so I've been doing this all these days. I guess that's all the energy your body needs. This is going to make us all stronger.

"Guys, listen up because it's good to eat. I have plans for tomorrow."

I hit the meat, chewing, but everyone's eyes pointed this way. And although I'm a little hesitant for a moment, I cough up one and then start talking.

"First of all, we will start tomorrow from the cabin, which is the current location, and we will go further behind the mountain range. Its topography is also rugged, and the flora, fauna and demons in which it lives increase in strength"

"Um, Lapis."

"Hmm? What's going on?

Karin raised her hand and blocked the conversation. She is beheading herself with the attitude she said she couldn't understand right now.

"I said animals and plants and demons I live in, but what do you mean, animals and demons have strong plants anyway?

"Oh, there. I meant what I said. Moving from here to the depths, plants may attack, too. There's a bug plant, right? That big guy. There are people who can have a drink."

…………

Karin in an outrageous sentence. The other three also had their mouths open and pokanned. Well, I guess I can't even be surprised. It's a plant you'd never encounter if you lived normal.

"... I'll keep talking. So, while breaking through such difficulties, it's ultimately the deepest part of the mountain range called the Dragon's Nest. It's a dragon's nest in the literal sense. There is the Dragon King, the king of the dragons, so I will fight the Dragon King and everyone to be strong."

The air has changed. Everyone's eyes are dotted and the hand that was reaching for meat is also stopped in the air. They forget to even breathe and stare at this one with a stunned look. Inside the cabin only the patchy sound of firewood exploding.

"Hey, wait a minute!

"Oh, it moved out"

It was Dieria who recovered first. She stuffs on me and rocks my body raggedly as she spits.

"Are you insane, Lapis!? Dragon King is that Dragon King!? It's legendary, isn't it? God's next most powerful being, so he's the one they say even brave men and demon kings can't win, right?!? Is there such a thing? And you're going to fight!?

"Oh, hang on..."

"Can this calm you down!

Dragon King is simply the strongest individual in the dragon. It's a dragon that they say has an infinite lifespan, so maybe I'm just making a replacement because I don't know, but as far as I know, there's only one dragon king. He and his dragons boast tremendous strength, each and every one of them, and that's strong enough for me to be in danger at the height of the season. But instead of their strength, they don't seem to be interested in anything. It's active when you're a young dragon, but that's what an old dragon is. It's not uncommon to spend decades or hundreds of years without wandering, so I guess you're not even interested in human or demonic strife.

Well, anyway...

"Hey."

"Ugh!?

Flip over and contain Dieria, who is unlikely to get excited. Then you finally settled down, and she slapped me in the arm firmly just saying it was a surrender.

"Calm down?

"You say you're calm... you say you're calm... I couldn't breathe."

Jito, I'm turning my attention. I dare to ignore her.

"Because their strength is real. If you stay in the dragon's nest for a month, you'll be strong enough not to compare."

"Master, isn't that... dangerous?

"That's dangerous. If you suck, you'll die. But if we keep fighting the Demons while they're weak, we're sure to die, and we're all ready for that, right?

I smiled at Rubias, who was out of line, and I stood up on the spot.

"Guys, when you get here, get ready! This is an opportunity to be strong. If you're going to name a brave party, let's jump into danger from yourself! I'll help you as much as I can!

"Ugh...... yeah. Right. I'm a little scared, but Lapis is right."

"This isn't the first time Lapis has been impotent. I can't help it, so I'm gonna go out with you."

Karin nodded and Ciel agreed with me as she clapped her shoulders. Looking at the two remaining people, apparently they've decided to be ready too.

"Master, give me the edge of the brave too. You don't have the option to get away with being told that much! Be sure to let me join you!

"Oh no. I hate to be scared... but I don't like leaving messages alone any more. I can't help it, so I'm going out with you."

I laugh bitterly at their apparent responses. But that's settled. Later we actually took a trip to the Dragon King and we just need to fight even. Looking forward to seeing them get stronger now.
