So, Question.
Are the dragons that inhabit the vicinity of the city good dragons or evil dragons?
"Yes, brother!
Oh, Rio, it was quick.
When I nominate him, Rio answers with a strained chest.
"We're near the city, so it's a good dragon, right?
"Hmm. What makes you think that?
"What...? Duh, why...?
When I returned the question, Rio went awry.
"No, because... if you're near the city, doesn't that mean that the dragon is friendly with the people in the city...?
He asks how Rio seems anxious.
I'm gonna put my hand on Rio's head like that, and I'm gonna do it with me.
Rio rang "Wahoo" and made it look like it was all over again.
"That's the thing. Being physically close to each other and both of them surviving means that coexistence is formed in some way. That means at least you're not the kind of dragon that will try to destroy you as soon as you see a human. ─ ─ Yes, Illis."
I'll nominate you, because Illis was raising his hand as a jerk.
In a rough way, Illis has been asking questions.
"But if that dragon is good, how could that... moon ore? Have you stopped picking that up? If you need it, you can ask Mr. Dragon and let me pick it..."
Mmm, good question.
I think Illis is a clear kid after all as he asks the question of the part that becomes a steep point, after a good understanding of things.
I'll answer that question while I do what I do with Iris.
"A good dragon means just as much to a human being as a good race. The dragon will also have a sense of territory - and most importantly, the market has decided that the dragon is generally difficult. I don't think ordinary people want to get as close as possible to someone they can imagine might pester themselves if they get a little upset."
"Funya... hey, I see..."
Iris was dyeing his cheeks because of me.
On the other hand, next, Mayfa asks questions.
"... that means that we, too, could be roasted round with flames throwing up from our mouths if we get in a bad mood for dragons?
Mayfa herself didn't look frightened, but when she heard the word Ur screamed "hi-ha".
I answer with a bitter smile at that Ur reaction.
"I can't even say it's impossible, about that. - So, Mayfa, don't be too rude in front of the dragon, okay?
"... Mmm, inevitable. I don't want to be roasted all over again because of that."
Apparently Mayfa is also aware that her usual words and actions are rude.
But even so, Mayfa doesn't say, "I don't want to bend myself, so I'm going home."
That's not what I hate about Mayfa.
"But, brother, back to the beginning, how strong is a dragon after all? Stronger than your brother?
Once again, Rio asks me that.
The answer to this question is a little difficult, isn't it?
"Uh... as I said earlier, there's a pinkie spot even when it comes to dragons. It also depends on the type of dragon - for example, whether it's a red dragon, white dragon, or... And most importantly," how long have you been a living dragon? "
"Eh... I knew a long-lived dragon was stronger"
Ul pinches his mouth with a snack.
I nod to it.
"Oh. Humans are grandfathers, when they become grandmothers, they lose fighting ability, but not dragons. The longer you live, the stronger the dragon is. If a young dragon (Young Dragon) hasn't lived in a hundred years, it's not so strange that Rio, Illis, and Mayfa can cross each other one-on-one now, but if it's an ancient dragon (Enchanted Dragon) that has lived for more than a thousand years, it's going to be a rough opponent for everyone, including me, whether it takes a bunch of them or not."
"" "" Hih-heh "" "
The children scream.
Here's what I'm going to add to those girls.
"Though we're not brave enough to see a thousand years of ancient dragons alive."
"Really...?
"Yes, it is."
I will do even more with Iris at hand.
Ilis was ringing, "Nah..." to give him an inadvertent look.
Um, because of the cute reaction, don't want to follow me without anything.
This sucks......
Well, aside from that.
The people we meet when it comes to dragons are usually young dragons (young dragons) less than a hundred years old.
Even if we rarely encounter something that is not, the Magnificent Dragon (Adult Dragon), which has lived for about a hundred to two or three hundred years, is the mountain of Sekiyama.
A thousand-year-old ancient dragon (Enchanted Dragon) is a miracle once in a lifetime.
Besides, the story I've heard in the city's Brave Alliance is that the young dragon (Young Dragon) will be ahead of us now.
Even the youngest young dragon (the Young Dragon) is the youngest Chenglong, but it is a giant monster about fifteen meters from the top of his head to the tip of his tail. If he is a brave man, he is not an enemy until he becomes a bunch.
But my boys have already far surpassed the realm of what they call the parallel brave, and naturally I'm not on that level either.
In other words, for us, the Young Dragon is not so fearful.
─ Well, talking to the kids like that, we move on through the wilderness.
Eventually, we set foot in the reddish rocky hills.
Around here, it would already be within dragon territory in a broad sense.
It is said that the dragon's territory usually extends from the nest hole to several kilometres around it.
By the way, the mining ground where the moon ore can be mined is a short distance from here, but I didn't want to be bothered later because they thought I took the liberty in the territory, so I decided to head to the Dragon's Nest where they taught me in the Guild of the Brave first.
Dragons say they recognize their territory as something of their own where human society says it is.
I don't know what you're willing to live in, but there's no other way for us to break the harmony and understanding between the city of Ravilton and the Dragon.
That's why we're going on a steep hillside for a while.
As the night book descended into the world, relying on the [light (light)] lights, I eventually saw a huge cave in my hand.
By the way, Ur had been beastified from around the hillside and proceeded to look like a werewolf.
Me, Rio, Illis, and Mayfa, the brave men, are moving on with their rugged terrain, but they can't keep up with their athletic abilities or their physical strength in a human wolf, so they gave up and bestialized them from the middle of nowhere.
Ur, who had somewhere repelled his appearance as a werewolf, but by the time he had traveled through the hills for a while, he had said, "This appearance also seems to be useful once in a while ~" and so on.
Well, we came all the way to the Dragon's Nest Cave with four brave men and one werewolf.
In the night darkness, the entrance to the cave, illuminated by the lights of [light (light)], is so immense that the three-story dwelling is likely to soak in, it conjures up the uninterrupted sense of size of the Lord of this cave.
I breathed heavily in front of the entrance and then raised my voice.
"Sorry! Mr. Dragon, are you there -!?
Then a little bit, from behind the cave, a loud voice echoed back from the bottom of the earth.
"Oh, are you human? This is unusual. I don't care. Come on in. '
The children who heard the voice look at each other.
The same goes for Uru, who looked like a werewolf.
And next, the four of you will look at me.
I turn to the four girls and make them nod.
"He said you can interrupt the nest hole. Let's go."
When I took the lead in [Light] lighting and stepped into the cave, the kids followed me like a surprise.
