I was going to freak out the crusaders in the form of black dragons, but something sucked.
Three men and women arrived near the cave, taken by four men dressed similarly to Hinata and the village chiefs, of whom I looked familiar.
Especially, guys suck better.
That's my alumni and my sister's husband, Hart.
I'm a complete dragonizer, and I'm a bummer with my bare hands.
The four men are probably those who went from the four villages that are in community with Hinata's village to the Adventurer Guild for help.
If so, Hart, as a crusader, will have come here.
The woman next to Hart, by the way, is Saira, a former Virgin. She's Hart's wife, too.
My bad sacred attribute magic is so strong because I'm a former Virgin.
If I fight, I probably won't lose, but I'll take a lot of damage, too.
Well, I would never fight Mr. Seira.
If I get my hands on her, Hart will kill me.
He can make me the world's most powerful colored dragon with a bee, because he has the power to make me disappear easily.
"We're here to defeat the Evil Dragon... you're not the Evil Dragon, are you?
"Chi, no! Never!!"
Hart asked, so he denied it with all his might.
Even if I joked, "I'm the evil dragon," Hart would attack me with amusement.
That's what he is.
Maybe Hart knows it's me.
But you're not gonna tell me that, so maybe you're trying to see what's going on here.
He is a wise man.
Very fast head spin.
So I expected Hart and decided to take the bet.
"I defeated the dragon."
"... I heard there was a girl who was sacrificed, what happened to that girl?
It's probably about Hinata.
It seems that the inhabitants of the other villages also told Hart that Hinata had been sacrificed.
"I helped. Still alive."
"Will you let me see that kid? Our client wants to make sure he's okay."
With Hart and Mr. Seira, a well-fitted warrior-style man approaching me spoke.
Could it be an associate of the Adventurer Guild?
By the way, the four men who have guided the Harts so far hide themselves in a far away rock.
"... no"
"Hey, why?
"I was the one who saved Hinata. I liked her. I decided to protect Hinata's village on condition that she would deal with me. So I can't let a man meet Hinata who doesn't know who he is."
"Well... this, excuse me. I'm Lawrence, the closest city to here, the one who runs Gareth's Adventurer's Guild."
The man who came with the Harts was the master of the Adventurers Guild.
That still means the Hults have come this far at the request of the Adventurer Alliance.
If you're Hart or Saira, you might not charge Hinata's village for the cost of coming out this far if I ask.
But I let the Alliance Master take me so far.
They'll charge you quite a bit more.
So...
"Lawrence and I, we've had enough of you. But I already defeated Evil Dragon. Then the village of Hinata is under my protection."
Be as high-pressure as possible.
I'm a black dragon.
Dragons are demons, but dragons who can communicate and protect humans are worshipped as patron saints of the area.
He said he looked somewhat great, so there shouldn't be a problem.
It's all about stomping down the quest for the Adventurer Alliance.
"No more interference... I won't allow it"
"─ - Come on!! Okay... let's do what I say, Lord Black Dragon's"
Sweat seeps through Lawrence's forehead.
My claim was accepted.
It was worth a little killing and trying awesome.
All right! Please, keep going home!!
"You got a minute?
A bucket of words, including my murderous temper, inquired with a cool face.
"... what?
"Like you're letting a girl deal with you?
Around Hurt, there was a swirl of magic.
Ya, yuck.
I think I mishandled something...
Hart's angry.
"Well, what's wrong with that?
"Is that... the will of a girl? You didn't impose it, did you?
There it is!!
Hinata offered me a meal, but if you think about it, it's because that's what I offered you.
If you call Hinata here and ask her if it was my instructions, it would be very bad.
Because I asked for it.
Stronger than Evil Dragon. If I asked for it, it wouldn't be strange if it meant I was forced.
……
Shit. I can't think of a good answer.
"Can't you answer that? The dragon that threatens a girl and forces her (...) phase (...) hand (...) of night (...) is like an evil dragon, right?
"─ What?"
Hart had very cold eyes.
And over my head, I create a giant spear of light.
Also, maybe you think I slept with Hinata!?
And you think I forced you to do that!?
I didn't do that!
I just asked Hinata to do the (...) phase (...) of the food (...) thing!
"Hey, hey..."
"... you've fallen, you"
Hart's hand was waved down.
The spear of light gave me...
"Master Lucin!
"Become!?"
Hinata popped out in front of me.
Spread your hands and protect me.
"Hinata!!"
Hart's magic was imminent.
Inevitable.
I surrounded Hinata with my own body and enhanced her dragon skin only around her.
If you concentrate on one dragon skin that usually covers your entire body, you can protect it from Hart's magic if you're alone.
Only Hinata, I will definitely protect you!
"─ Oh, that?
No matter how long I waited, there was no damage.
I give you a horrible face.
"I'm sorry I doubted you, Lucin"
There was a smiling Hurt.
It looks like you stopped the magic on the way.
"Looks like there's no evil dragon, and we're going home with this. See you tomorrow."
With that said, Hart left with Mr. Seira and the Alliance Master.
"Dear Lucin..."
Hinata, surrounded by the body of a black dragon, raised her voice.
"Hinata, you're in danger. How did you get out?"
"Because Master Lucin..."
Hinata made me cry.
"Oh, I'm not mad at you. I just don't want to put Hinata in danger."
"Even I am! I thought you said you wouldn't do anything dangerous - it's okay!!"
"... sorry, Hinata"
Return to the human figure and embrace Hinata.
Hinata's been putting her hands around my back.
"Dear Lucin, in the future, the only time you will look like a dragon is when I am beside you"
"Eh."
A little bit, a calm Hinata has said that.
"If Master Leucine is about to be attacked by humans because they mistakenly think he's a bad dragon, I'll stop it!
That's pretty dangerous, isn't it?
They don't always stop attacking you on the way, like Hart, and it's impossible for a normal wizard to cancel once activated magic in the first place.
- Mm-hmm?
Maybe Hinata thinks I'm in her village the whole time?
I have class tomorrow, so unfortunately I have to go back to Glendale.
"Hey, Hinata. I'm leaving the village tomorrow."
"Really? Then I'll follow Master Lucin, too."
Even naturally, it was answered instantly.
"... seriously?
"You can't, can you?
In Hinata's eyes, tears accumulate.
It's cheating... you can't say no to that, can you?
"I can't. If Hinata would come with me, I'd be happy."
"Thank you! Then I will serve you for the rest of your life as a family member of Master Leucine!!"
"Family!? No, I told Hinata I told her... no. Nothing."
"I'm her... does Master Lucin want to be with me, a man and a woman?
"It's okay, forget it"
"If you'll excuse me, I'd like to go out with Lucin."
─ Huh?
Hey, what did I just say!?
"I admire you, Master Lucin."
He looked up at my face as Hinata hugged me.
So cute.
A girl like this tells me she wants to be my girlfriend.
But what if...
I looked around in a hurry.
Because I thought Hart or Yoko might be teasing me with brainwashing magic.
There was no sign of them around.
There's nothing strange about my magic currents.
They're not dreams or illusions.
"... are you serious"
"I mean it. Dear Lucin."
Something seems like I could have a girlfriend.
