Isekai Tensei no Boukensha

Chapter 6-3 The Value of Dragons

I screamed unexpectedly, but when I looked closely, it was a little different in shape from the dragon I knew.

The biggest difference is that the guy in front of you doesn't have wings on his back. And the appearance feels like he was stuck to the whole body of the 'commode lizard' with a big, hard looking scale. Would the total length be over 15m, pretty big, just say dragon, and the intimidation wasn't exactly the same with the demons there.

"'Appraisal'"

I don't know if it's because I saw it in person or because it came close, but I finally could use the 'appraisal'. This local dragon is a demon classified as a junior dragon, but as far as status goes, it's probably a strong category among them. Maybe if it's just strength, it's close to intermediate.

"In the meantime, I'll be the one. In that gap, you two need to rescue Ricky! If you can, keep going through the woods! I like to pass along the river. Because I will direct you to the other side!

If I were you right now, I wouldn't be the one to win a fight. But it's hard to fight in the woods. So we need to direct them outside the woods as easy to fight as possible.

"Are you okay on your own!

Jin says worryingly, but that ground dragon would feel like it had made the Wyburn subspecies stronger. It's an easy opponent to fight, depending on how you look at it.

"I'm fine. And Slalin and the others."

Besides, it's not a tournament, so you can use Giganto. That's enough change to come.

"Okay. Don't push me!

Using the words as a signal, Jin and the others split into two hands.

When Ricky and the others came this way, I took the sword out of the bag that I had bought for disposability.

It's an iron sword, but it's made thick and sturdy, and he's pretty sturdy.

"Ricky! Keep running!

When I gave the instructions, I flew straight to the dragon and waved my sword down between the dragon's brows.

"Ggah!"

The ground dragon stopped the movement with that blow, but just a crack in the scales between the eyebrows didn't seem to do much damage. By contrast, this sword has caused a terrible blade spill and is useless as a sword.

"Wow! That's harder than I expected... good with a disposable sword..."

I used disposables because I missed my attention and thought it was very damaging... but that's good. Even the guy I use all the time, maybe he lacked it.

"Next time, I'll buy a hammer or something...... I'll always be ab! I knew you'd get mad."

In the midst of making new plans since returning to the Wang capital, the earth dragon has tried to bite me.

"Do you want me to direct you?"

I adjusted my speed to invite the dragon and kept flying. There were times when the dragon was about to give up, so I occasionally poked him in the nose and peed.

And the dragon came after him out of the woods.

"Eat!"

I release a few shots of 'firebrit' but they all disappeared inhibited by hard scales.

"That's as hard as it looks...... then how about this!

I aim where the magic hits me earlier, three shots in a row and release a strong firebrit.

The magic aimed at the forefoot crushed the scales in the first shot, pierced the skin in the second shot and reached the bone, falling out on the other side in the third shot.

"Gugaaaa! Grrrrrrrrrrrr"

Coming here, the dragon began to be more alert. Finally, I think I have the strength to harm the Dragon.

The dragon began to retreat slightly, but was suddenly cut from behind.

"Gaw!"

Shiloumal. Shiloumal, who was chasing after the dragon, was cut with a 'slash' from behind the dragon.

However, only a few scales of ground dragon were peeled off by a blow all over Shiloumal, which could only do a small amount of damage.

However, to say the least, the ground dragon was surprised by the wound and tried to get down to the position where he could see both me and Shiloumal, but now Slalin's "Fireball" and Solomon's "Ray (Brace)" were attacked from above the ground dragon.

Both were not powerful enough to destroy the scale of the dragon, but the surprise of the dragon did not seem halfway to a sudden attack from the sky.

"After all, are junior dragons generally less intelligent..."

Seeing the local dragon about to panic, I remembered the Wyburn subspecies I had crusaded during this time.

"With that said, we need to get the Wyburn subspecies to Mr. Jean's."

I remembered that the subspecies of Wyburn remained to be tested, so I just decided to exorcise the dragon.

"Then let's go!

I recall Giganto while approaching the Dragon. Only my right hand has been transformed into the Great Sword that I had made in Kelly's workshop.

The earth dragon is stopped moving blindfolded by a huge arm that suddenly appears.

He still doesn't seem smart. Even though we don't stop moving here, we say there's only one way to survive a forced breakthrough.

"Guga, Goga, Buga, Guja..."

A blow with his left fist between Ground Dragon's eyebrows, a blow with his right sword around his neck, floating with his left upper, thrust the right blow into his throat.

"Oops, no body!

Blood erupts from the throat of the dragon. Demons in this class deserve blood, too. So I magically freeze the blood that falls.

At that time, large droplets fell from the sky. Slalin.

Slalin swallows the blood I've frozen. If this is Shiloumal or Solomon, I'll make him spit it out in a hurry, but if it's Slalin, there's no problem. Perhaps he sees me freezing blood, understands it's what he needs, and leaves it in a magic bag in his body.

Eventually the blood stopped and the dragon completely stopped moving.

So when I laid the dragon on my back and put it on the ground so that the rest of the blood wouldn't spill, Galat would run from afar, but I could see it.

"Ooh! Tenma, I'm here to help you... tell you what, it seemed like it was totally late..."

Seeing the lying dragon, Galat's face was drawn.

"What about the other two?

I thought Jin and Ricky were coming later, but apparently the two are waiting at yesterday's base.

According to Garratt, the moment he joined the two, Ricky fell because the thread of tension was broken. So the two of us transported him to base, but he was worried about me on the boulder, and a light galat went to see how I was doing, and if he could, he was going to go in for cover.

"Well, it was a complete waste of time. A little sooner, you might have claimed your share of the Dragon!

And he was slapping me on the back. In this case, the other three have contributed nothing to defeating the Dragon, so it will be my sole possession.

"Well, I'll split it a little. Within common sense."

"Seriously! There is!

And I was happy. In fact, I have not contributed to defeating them, but Zinn and Garratt have a right because they took part in the operation. Ricky... well, let's not interpret him as a discoverer.

I could have dismantled the dragon on this occasion, but I decided to take it home to avoid wasting as much blood as possible.

"But hey... where are we going to dismantle this?

Garratt's question is the most, but I only had one place in mind.

"The royal castle. I had to go anyway because of the Wyburn subspecies, so I followed him there. Soon there will be demolition personnel (knights)... and when we dismantle them elsewhere, there will be people (...) who come to the rarity and make a scene..."

Kings, grand dukes, military lords, princesses... and finally, Maria and the others come to anger and make a fuss. Maybe, I'm sure, absolutely...

If it is certain that there will be noise, you should choose a place where there is no problem with noise.

"As it were, well, Tenma is close to the royal family... just share after..."

Garratt doesn't seem to want to get caught up in such a commotion. Well, I don't want to get involved either...

"But if I auction this guy, I don't know how much it's gonna cost... definitely don't make a fuss"

"Oh, so I'm not letting this guy out! The interrupt process is a pain in the ass... by the way, is it tasty to be a dragon?

I've heard that Wyburn is delicious. I don't know the subspecies, but I think they might taste good. The ground dragon seems... solid, but if it simmers like a beef muscle for a long time, maybe I can.

"I have some in the auction, and I'm not having trouble with the money... even if you look at our members, you eat before you sell"

To the words, Galat was nodding when he saw Shiloumal and Solomon.

"Shall we head to Jin and the others? It's a big hunt, let's just go home."

I put the dragon in my bag and headed to Jin and the others, but there was more distance than I thought, so I grabbed Galat on the way and flew away.

"Oh Tenma, are you all right...... hey Galat! How long have you been a child of Tenma!

Early on back, Jin started making fun of us.

What Jin was trying to say was that he likened the way I was grabbing Galat's backpack and carrying it to the way my parent dog carried the puppy.

"Tenma, just a minute ago, you can skip the gin."

"Okay."

Jin, who doesn't know what that means, had a blast for a while, but when Garratt taught him what it meant, he was grounded and apologizing.

"It was my fault! Get me in a good mood!

Seeing Jin's very desperate dungeon, I decided to forgive him. Apparently, he rushed out to Ricky's place, so he left his prey behind. And when I went back, the prey disappeared.

Ricky seemed uncomfortable a little further away when Jin and the others were talking like that. That would be so. This is not the carelessness of Jin and the others, but the cause is also on Ricky.

Slalin approached the jinns for some reason as Ricky took the prey out of his bag and tried to give it to the jinns.

And spit out pigs and deer.

"Whoa! That's the pig I hunted!

"This is my deer!

Slalin swallowed pigs and deer one at a time again after spitting out the gin and the others' prey.

The Jins are confused by the behavior, but Slalin is trying to tell me something.

"What?... yeah... oh, I see, okay. Jin, Galat, and Slalin say," I saved the prey I left behind, so I'll get some of my prey for the reward. "

Slalin is affirming by letting his body play. Is that why the slurrins were a little late then... you can't get out of it.

"Become!"

"Seriously!

The Jins were surprised, but it's not a strange situation if Slalin doesn't recover it and all his prey is gone.

Slalin's methods are a little dirty, but Jin's actions in these cases are often seen as' waiving the right to prey '. Besides, since I get my share of the dragon, it seems like I thought I'd make money from it, and I didn't complain.

I just regretted it a lot...

I'm not hunting animals (edible meat) today, so I guess I secured them myself.

"Well, shall we go home? Let's wrap up the story of the Dragon's share as we go home."

This time, the Dragon is not going to redeem in the Alliance, so Jin and the others' share of the material was supposed to be part of the material. So I decided to decide which material I want first.

Jin is one fang up and one down, Galat is the forefoot nail, and Ricky is the sharp thorn that was growing on his back.

It was decided to divide one scales and a few kilograms of meat into each. I still don't know if I can eat meat, but it's junior dragon meat, so even if I couldn't eat it, there should be a lot of pickups for research.

Where Wang du was nearer, I saw some sort of frivolous group.

If you look closely, it's a familiar group.

"The carriage there! Stop!"

A man at the head of the group comes up on a horse.

"Do you have any idea where you came from, and the information that the dragon came out?

The man is speaking to Ricky, who is in your seat.

"Then I'll take care of it. Squad Leader."

Turned to Ricky, and I answered out the window. The person who came in here must have been the First Knights Squad Leader.

"Ha?... and Lord Tenma! Is that true!

He still seemed to be the first Knights squad leader for sure.

This man was being thrown in place of a weapon by Mr. Din when he had previously participated in the Knights' Auditorium. Well, back then, I kicked this guy in the air...

Then when I showed my face to the royal castle, I remembered because I said hello several times.

This group appears to be organized with the First Knights and Adventurers.

"Was there a convocation for me to have an adventurer?

They say the answer is YES. But it was after noon yesterday that the convocation took place, and we weren't there anymore, so he gave up.

Here are some of the members who played in the tournament, including 'Dragon Squad', 'Roen Glynn' and 'Blue Hornet'.

However, since there was no one at the house banquet, I asked the Squad Leader that they were not all in a position to move.

First, "The Sword of Dawn". Since Jin and Garat are not here, they do not participate due to lack of fighting power.

"Seigentheimers A B C" is a hangover.

"Gunjo's Hua (Three Daughters)" eats too much.

Amur also eats too much.

Blanca prioritizes her wife's souvenir search.

Grandpa is hungover.

Others, out of battle.

They are... but most of the reason is not busy!

Fortunately, it is not compulsory, so there are no penalties. Originally, the members who were attending the banquet were adventurers from other cities, except the people from Kukri Village, so it was not calculated, but the person who went to ask for them would have been surprised.

"Anyway, if you knocked me out, let me out once. I want to make sure with these eyes."

So I took the dragon out in front of everyone.

Everyone seemed to think they were a little smaller individuals, surprised they were bigger than expected.

"The four of you..."

"No, that ended up being Tenma alone. We didn't do anything."

Jin ran out of words to the outgoing squad leader.

Show the other adventurers their surprised faces about it. Whatever, "we're not helping ourselves in any way," because we could possibly damage our reputation.

Normally if I said that, they would say, "Somewhat but I helped" or "I was dedicated to cover".

"Well, I can't help lying. Instead, you made a big deal out of him not to pull Tenma's leg, like you gave him that kind of cover!

The way Garratt said it was weird, but it seemed to make sense to the other adventurers.

Originally, to defeat this class of demons, you'll need a handsome adventurer on a ten-man basis.

Therefore, if it were normal, it would seem natural for me to exorcise myself.

But I have a history. The Alliance records treat it informally, but rumors are spreading from nobles and officials in Kukri Village, and there is a history of saying 'dragon kills' that has come to fruition because of the power shown in the tournament during this time.

Besides, at the heart of the adventurers here are the adventurers who fought me.

Sometimes it's more convenient for them to lose to "Dragon Killer" than to lose to "Just a Child (Newbie)".

So I don't know where it really is, but I think I believed it on the surface.

"I'm sure this guy is the dragon of the earth that was in the report. But I came back because I had been exterminated more than headed for a crusade with my life from His Majesty the King, and I can't report it. I'm sorry, but tell me more about where the dragon was. The crusade is gone, but there's nothing left to investigate."

Even as a Knights, I went out of my way to hire adventurers. I don't care if I go back, I don't get dressed unless I achieve results.

That's right. I wouldn't tell you to give me the ground dragon, but that's what you'd want to say on the inside.

"I would like to have this local dragon examined with the Wyburn subspecies, is it possible?

So I decided to offer a little help. If I take the Dragon to the Knights, that alone will increase the Knights' work. To say that there will be more work is to say that there will also be more reports to the upper management, and it can also be said that trooping was not a mistake. Simply put, it means more money and pay for your activities.

The Squad Leader was very pleased with my proposal. Because without labor, it's like the handles have been rolling in.

But this is only a deal (...). There (the Knights) will be given a record (...) that says' I was involved in the case of the Dragon of the Earth ', and this (me) will be able to secure a free (...) workforce for the dismantling of the Dragon of the Earth and sell favors to Lord Lyle, the head of the Knights. Of course, I have the right to all the material of the Dragon, so I'll just tell him about it properly.

Once only orally on this occasion, I could not make any promises, so I asked the Squad Leader to write a brush, and one of the knights took it and went back to Wang Capital. The contract will be judged by Master Lyle.

Well, it's going to be eighty-nine. Anyway, that guy, he's been messing around a lot since the first time he met me, so he's managed most of his salary by Maria. In short, even though he's the head of the military, he's getting a penny from his mother.

I feel sorry for this, even though I just deserved it.

"Tenma! Well done!

When he broke up with the crusaders and went back to the King's Capital and went straight to the Royal Castle, Master Lyle was waiting at the gate.

There are also escorts and gatekeepers waiting around. Master Lyle's first voice seems to be rather telling them to sound deliberate than telling them to turn to me.

(Tenma, sorry but match me)

Master Lyle whispers as he slaps me on the shoulder.

"Ha! I discovered the dragon, so I finally exorcised it"

My words surprised the guards and gatekeepers around me.

Naturally. By mistake, an organism called a ground dragon is not the kind of thing that comes down with (...).

Originally, if you discover it, you'll do everything in your power to escape. It is a bragging story of a single organism if it escapes, and there is a possibility that there will be a bounty just to report it.

"Come on... that's just great! Okay, let's go!

We're headed to the Knights' training ground on Master Lyle's guidance. There's no way to get a dragon out on this spot, so the training ground was chosen as a big, dirty place.

"So, Tenma... excuse me, but you went to that forest because I gave you my instructions, so why don't you do it? Of course, we will pay for it, and we will not claim the right to the material. Just let the knights bite the dragon."

Don't let the guards around you ask you, Master Lyle, you'll bring me a consultation in the carriage. Apparently, it's what I expected.

"Fine... there are quite a few conditions, aren't there?

Five gold coins for each of the four of us as a condition of this offer. This also includes a stopping fee.

Besides, the purchase of the materials we took. I decided to get more than the market price for this.

With regard to the purchase of materials, I decided to have them bought off three things, except me, and something that I hunted jointly.

As for the dragon, I said no, so I was sorry, but instead I was going to accommodate some material from the Wyburn subspecies.

"So Lyle hitched a ride to Tenma."

Early on in the Knights' practice field, Master Lyle was caught by Master Maria. When one of the escorts went to secure the training ground, Maria found him and seemed to be ahead of him.

Because I asked Maria why she was ahead of me, and she said, "Because Lyle seemed to be up to something".

"Mother, the story was a deal between me and Tenma on the basis of 'convinced by both sides'..."

At present, Master Lyle is seated in front of Maria. I was told nothing in particular, so I'm letting the knights prepare for demolition after I've positioned myself to serve the Wyburn subspecies and ground dragons around the middle of the practice field.

Not exactly in the form that I'm ordering, but in the form that Tida is ordering my instructions.

"Lyle, I'm not mad about the ride. The angry thing is that you tried to keep it from us and put it in the hands of the Knights (for your own dime). You know?"

Maria's sermon continues.

"Mr. Tenma, what do you do next?

"Ahhh... this size reptile doesn't have to be rusty... can you gather up some cutaway blades, tools for dismantling that might be used, and later someone who has had experience judging junior dragons?

Listen to my words, Tida gives the knights instructions.

"Fine, Lyle. This is a case that could be in history! If you're going to make a deal, you should build on that! Luckily, it's good because I realized that if you do poorly... no, you don't have to do poorly, you'll be attached to other nobles!

The sermon is still going on.

"Mr. Tenma. We have all the blades and tools, but the stone doesn't have anyone in the castle."

"Then to the guild... I don't know, maybe Grandpa would know. I'm sorry, can someone go?

"Then we're coming!

At the corner of the training ground, Jin and the others, who were having a tea party (outside the battle power of the name), ran for it and rented the carriage out of the knights.

"Fine! That's how I hear you always have the habit of thinking things over easily...!

Sermons that have stepped out of line are still going on.

"By the way, Tida, what about Luna?

"Luna is studying. Maybe he's doing it with his grandfather and uncle."

I used to say it in a way that bothered me, but I would say I can't come here.

"I don't know what else to do... let's take a break until Grandpa gets here"

I'll put out a table on the spot and take out tea and sweets.

Fortunately, there are a lot of topics to talk about to kill time.

Maria couldn't hear me as I was picking sweets with Tida and talking about the dragon.

Turning around, the sermon seemed to be over, and Master Maria was approaching us. Behind it lies Lyle, who has a vain eye.

"Can I stay here?

Master Maria lowered her back to the empty chair before hearing my reply. Behind him stands Master Lyle with a vain eye.

"How would you change the deal for Diryu?

I opened my mouth when I saw Maria sitting down.

"That's right. Well, we're not changing the terms on the Tenma side. The change is for the counterparty to say," It's not Lyle, it turns into Teeda "and to say," At the royal behest, I did not exorcise the Dragon (...) "

I know the first reason. The point is to make the achievements of Tida, the "future king candidate," and to strengthen Tida's connection to me. This change is understandable because it's a story that benefits me, too.

The problem is second. If you want to make Tida's achievements, you should leave the material with royal instructions.

Maria told me with a smile that you felt the doubt about me and Tida.

"It's a simple story. I can't believe the royal order was given, given the circumstances. Perhaps the nobleman will poke me about it and make me suffer unnecessary hardships. Then you should write in the dossier that Tenma favored (...) the royal family. It's easier to do it later."

That's why.

Master Lyle's method may be "the royal family used its power to give me the dragon of the earth," etc. Those close to you won't think that, but the average person might believe it, and even the reformists, will certainly use it.

Therefore, it is said that we will minimize criticism and make the most of the facts.

I don't care for it myself, but if you ask me if I'm going to be attached to either a royalist or a reformist, I'll be a royalist I know a lot of.

A while ago, I said I didn't want to join the faction, and I might go somewhere I don't know, but I'm pretty sure how involved I am in the current state, so it would be more convenient to clarify my position.

At any rate, the top royalists and I are close at the moment. I don't have a hand in not using this.

"No problem...... but I am only a favored collaborator (...)"

"Yeah, nothing wrong with that. Tenma just likes the royal family, just (...) ordinary people, right?"

Teeda and I are pulling on Maria, who talk a lot of things, but she seems to understand that she has something to do with the center of the story.

It should be noted that in the course of the conversation, Master Lyle did not make it slight, but she was shaking her body as she blued her face, responding only to Maria's laughter (...).
