Shadow Dragon Route

Meet the dragon —— the reunion was shocking.

When I was staying in the Elder Hobbit settlement, a "giant bird shadow" suddenly appeared.

As if it was an assault by the goddess's minions, they landed on the village square in an elegant flight with absolutely no hostility.

The surface of his body was shining golden (...).

It was a dragon I had never seen before.

"--Rage!"

But more surprisingly, it was a girl who had fallen from her back.

"Lark...?"

Raj's sister, Lark, was there to compensate for the family she killed.

She ran in a light footsteps and hugged Raige.

"Thank goodness...! You're safe, aren't you?"

"Lark... is it real?"

"You're definitely real!"Have you forgotten your sister's face!? "

As she leaves her body, her face is right there.

The long blonde hair is tied up behind me, and the flirty purple eyes are growing up in this short period of time.

When the thin lips under the firm nose open,

”...... Well, don't look at me seriously”

"I'm sorry."

He tried to push me away.

"Well, that's not true, why is Lark here!?"

Around the square, the Elder Hobbits are fully armed and surrounded.

For once, I could fight anything, but the golden dragon was yawning. It's a pleasant thing.

"When you were acting for the 'Unity of the World', I went to the 'Six Heavens Mine (Six Mines)'.That's where I met this dragon. "

"Dragon... is there a dragon in the mine?"

I am the Golden Dragon. I was born after taking over the experience of my ancestors.

All of a sudden, I look at you unexpectedly because I talked.

My ancestors...

"Could it be that you fought in the provincial capital, Youvermins...?"

Left. The dragon whose neck was slashed down by my daughter.

It's the rebirth of that dragon.

!? !?

I can see both Lark and the Golden Dragon.

Reincarnate? No, more than that, did you put the man who slashed his head on it?

"As the Golden Dragon says... you bought the wrath of the goddess."

"Eh......"

Each dragon has a different individual, but it has a unified mind.I know what the dragon, who calls himself the "Pharmacological Sage," was looking at. "

"Ah... yes, is the wise man safe?"

{Of course. It's the longest living dragon in the world... it's so cunning.He cared what happened to you.They blew me up and I couldn't detect where I was going. "

"I don't know the hard part, but I asked you to help me find Rage by listening to the Golden Dragon."

"Lark..."

The disarmed Elder Hobbits left a few guards behind to start their normal lives.I don't think it's okay to leave such a huge dragon behind, but apparently I'm here, so whatever happens, I think I'll do something about it.

How stubborn.

Then Lark met the Golden Dragon and defeated them immediately.

The reason is that Lark has always had the power to kill the Golden Dragon.

This Golden Dragon seems to be a strange person named "I like the stronger one" compared to the ancestors who were "serious about the mission" to the Golden Dragon. It seems that at a glance she knew who she was.

Lark honestly said that his power had been lost, but the Golden Dragon said, "Then I will help you return to your power."

But as we talked, the first priority was to find the missing me —— and it seemed like I was flying all over the world.

"There's a lot of trouble flying around here.Flying further from here, we were talking about gathering the dragon race.Of course, that dragon who calls himself the "Pharmacological Sage" will also come. "

I definitely asked the Golden Dragon to take me there.

And it was fulfilled -- met or reunited with twelve dragons, where we heard about the goddess.

Together with the two Shadow Dragons, I became the King of the Unstable Kingdom of Kulvahn.

I really wanted you to come to Lark.

However, her body was still shabby, and Lark herself,

I don't have the strength to fight with you anymore.

I said it lonely.

I couldn't press it and say, "Follow me."

I broke up with Lark at the deepest point of the undeveloped land of the Canyon.

This isn't your last goodbye, promise me you'll see the goddess again.

"--Well, there are many things that Shadow Dragon and I do together."The Shadow Dragon is amazing.I could use magic that blended into my surroundings, so it was pretty hard to find from the ground, and I wasn't caught up in the magic of the detection system.Of course, if you pass over it, the sun will be blocked and it will be dark for a moment. ”

Hmph. Yeah. The stupid golden dragon said I was "plain".

That's right, you're a smart dragon.

Two proudly say.

"... Raige, I get it, but was there no other way to get around?"

It was unusual for Mr. Dantes to say that with a blue face.

Right now, it's 5,000 meters above sea level.

It flies westward at speeds of about 300 kilometers per hour.

The merchants that go down the street are as small as grains of sand, but they also leave behind at a terrifying rate.

We were riding on the backs of two Shadow Dragons.

The wind pressure was quite reduced by the Shadow Dragon's magic, but the demonic cold was hard to come by, so I leaned over and managed with Wind Magic and Auxiliary Magic .

Because [Fire Magic] was very difficult to regulate temperature.

"Hey, how long will it take to get there!?"

"Don't worry, Mr. Mino."It's tough right now, but I'll move on pretty quickly. "

Mr. Mimino's face was obviously frustrated.

We have three more days to do something about it.

"Three days!?"

"--Mimino, Mimino? Hey, Mimino!"

* giggle * Dantes grabs Mimino, who has his white eyes peeled off.

"Geez! You're making me feel better!"

"For once, it's tightly wrapped with rope, so even if you fall asleep, it won't fall off."

"Can I sleep?!"

Certainly, even by air on magic airships, many people seem to faint because they can't stand the fear of "falling."

In that case, the dragon's speed is terrible.

But what they say is, "If you're serious, it'll be faster."

I didn't want to scare everyone, so I didn't say that.

At night they went down to the earth to rest.

There are areas in the Keithgran Federation where no goddess shrine was built, and they landed there —— of course, if the Shadow Dragon was found out, it would be a fuss, so it would be sneaky.

As soon as I entered the inn, Lady Eva was trembling with a pale face, and I slept when I ate elegantly.

On the contrary, Mino-san, who had fainted, was fine, and with an unexpected toughness, Arsha was fine, and we came to the tavern next to the inn.

Ah, Zelie went out to the casino.Say, "It's easy to sleep on the back of a dragon all night."

"... I can't believe it. The kingdom of Kulvahn is far away, isn't it?"

Mimino said while drinking something with plenty of honey in the warmed milk.

Asha was a hot wine, and I received the same as Mr. Mino. [M]

It was quite crowded in the store, but we were able to blend in well.

After all, the Federation of the Keith Glen has a lot of countries with a lot of human race, and the Half Ring's Minnow and the High Elf's Arsha will stand out.

"So... I'd like to talk to you a lot, but first of all, is the dragon an ally?"

The dragon's back wasn't very calm to talk about.

I nodded to Asha's question.

"Yes... I think so. At least I believe in dragons."

To Arsha and Mino-san, the "pharmacological wise man".

And I told him about Lark.

Why are the dragons against the goddess?

--Nature should be put back where it belongs.

That's what the "Pharmacological Sage" who met again in the middle of the unexplored land "Canyon" said.

For far too long, they have reigned as mediators.

Sometimes he fights with men, sometimes he fights with beasts.

It is impossible for me to know the accumulated thought for such a long time. [M]

However, I know that the "Pharmacological Sage" helped me, and there was no reason to doubt that if they wanted to kill the goddess.

"What are the dragons doing now?"Are you heading to Lake Brunstoke with the Shadow Dragon? "

"No, they said they had no power over the goddess."It's a contract with a goddess who made a deal with the world before. "

A contract made when the dragon became a "mediator".

It still seems to be tying up the dragon.

The same "mediator", the Fantasy Demon, was of course in the same position, but the dragon said that he didn't know what the Fantasy Demon was thinking.

For now, I seem to be keeping an eye on my condition, but maybe I'll become a goddess.

At that time, I was going to fight the Fantasy Demon —— those black shadows.

"In any case, the dragon can only support you."We need to fight the goddess directly. "

"...... you're a real person, aren't you?"

“Yes, but we have to fight”

A being who calls himself God even though he is not God.

The world that the goddess manipulates by brainwashing... it's a dystopia.

Maybe there will be no more war and peace.

But all those who have knowledge are like domesticated animals.

The goddess is a single player, and it's like playing a simulation game...

If that's what people want.

However, the goddess has begun to "covenant" and has begun to brainwash unilaterally.

I don't think that should be forgiven after all. [M]

”Rage-kun, this... it's getting late.”

The dagger that Mimino had placed on the table was a familiar one.

I got it from Uncle Mule, and I asked Mr. Dantes to fix it because he had been in a lot of battles.

"Did you fix it!?"

Yeah. Anyway, it seemed like it was a very special forging method to improve its robustness, and I struggled to find a blacksmith who could fix the warped blade.

"Wow..."

At the same firm weight, when pulled out of the sheath, the blade appeared emitting a dull light.

To my regret, the name of Mule Frontier was still stamped.

"Huh. Something's wrong with the shine."

"Everything was introduced by the guildmaster of Valhalla, Giorgio-sama, to the blacksmith, who was a dwarf of the changed--"

"... no, wait a minute, what are you doing now?"

Strange Dwarf

"It's not that!" Did you ask your guildmaster to fix this!? Top of the continent!? "

Yeah, Giorgio was happy to introduce you to the craftsman when he heard that you were using it.

…………

Wow... there's a lot of great people out there.

"That blacksmith dwarf is weird."It's just that it's boring to train the blade, so it's been strengthened by magic. "

”Nah... I thought there was some kind of magic in it”

A piece of silver (mithril) was planted inside the handle, and magic was engraved on it.

…………

Mithril?

It's a rare metal controlled by the state.

Isn't that what the pope uses for his scepter?

Isn't it the kind of strategic material that makes the Gnome race and the Dwarf race contest each other?

Giorgio said, "I wonder if you're like Rage."

…………

"I wonder where Giorgio-sama's evaluation of me came from..."

That's the radiance you deserve, Rage-san.

I guess I'd better use these weapons.

Arsha said with enchanted eyes, and Mino-san also said "naturally".

But Mino-san said, "My child is amazing," so it's still fine.

"...... I have to live up to my expectations."

Soon the dagger was scabbarded and we left the store.

I thought it was a bad idea to have to fight with a matching sword, but I got an unexpected famous sword.

Good night, then.

Yes.

I broke up with Mr. Mino and Mr. Arsha in the corridor of the inn.

…………

In the dark corridor, I think I'm alone.

It carries the expectations of many people.

"--Rage?"

There, in the hallway, Miss Eva came out.

"Lady... what's wrong?"

"When I fell asleep, I woke up.Are you going to bed now, Rage? "

"Ah, yes..."

Looking at me, the young lady,

“--Talk to me a little bit.”

said.

The lodge was large, and there was a balcony at the end of the hallway.

From there you can look down on a secluded boulevard.

The lady is an unfamiliar bunch of lodgings, and she can't carry a change of clothes, so she looks like a dressed bird.

"I'm used to living like this."

The young lady became tough at some point.

Even if it's a dusty trip, it still keeps it clean, and the only thing that has a dusty beauty is "that's right".

We lined up on the balcony. [M]

The sky has a thin moon rising, and it is about time that it will be a new moon in a little while.

It is late at night and no one goes down the street.

"--Rage, what are you under pressure for?"

Huh?

The young lady tells me to look me in the face.

"I know that much."

…………

For about three years, I lived as a lady's escort.

In the meantime, I kept my eyes on the young lady —— because she was the one who thought about it and did it.

(... I wasn't the only one watching)

The lady was watching me too. [M]

“Sometimes it's easier to talk, Rage.At least this isn't a matter for you to bear alone.I'm not your master anymore, but I dare say this because I don't think you want to talk to me.--Tell me, Rage, what you have in your heart. "

I don't think this guy has a head —— that's not why I'm a civilian and your daughter is an aristocrat.

Perhaps Lady Eva is born with the power to bear the suffering of others as we do.

I think that the "Inspiring Demon Eyes" of the Lady is only available because she is a Lady.

"... do you know about Elle, a high priestess?"

The young lady nodded and told me.

The discovery of El in the burnt state of Lake Brunstoke.

After that, they found El's hidden study and wrote down that I might be eliminated by the goddess.

I heard from the dragon that El-san was a mediator created by the goddess in the past.

"...... Wasn't that a magical life form?"

"That's right. Instead of choosing a race like a dragon or a fantasy demon, the dragon said it wanted to act as the mediator set by the goddess."But there were some problems with that. ”

It is the role of the mediator to divide the world into two parts and to ensure that the covenant is not violated.

However, at the time when the opportunity to restore the world came in two parts, it was unpredictable for the goddess.

Therefore, it was difficult for magic life forms with activity limitations due to aging and magic catalyst wear to bear the responsibility.

After all, although Elle-san was created —— according to the dragon, there seemed to be dozens of other magic creatures similar to Elle-san, but after hundreds of years, almost all activities were stopped and Elle-san remained miraculously -- the mediator deserved more than someone who could survive as a race, so even if he died, the dragon that would transfer his memories to the next generation was chosen as well as the extremely long-lived fantasy demon.

Elle gradually lost her memory of the past during the long period of her activities, and became involved in the founding of the Kulvahn Kingdom and eventually became the keeper of the Altar of the Day (First Alter).

"... when the goddess descended, I was summoned along with the Covenant Maker and the Mediator to be the Reincarnator of the Otherworld."I didn't realize it, but it looks like Elle was there too... Elle was also in a discussion at Blanstalk about the "union of the worlds". ”

I told the lady about Mr. Elle's last.

I burned myself to protect me.

"...... Why did Elsa help me?"Why did El, the existence created by the goddess, act against the goddess's idea?I know neither, so I can only imagine. [M]I'm sure that Er... would like you to stop the goddess. "

If it hadn't been for Elle, I would have died there. [M]

For the goddess, I am an intrusive being.

I--I was kept alive by Mr. Elle.

Thinking about it, my heart was in pain after all.

As adventurer guildmaster Giorgio can expect from me, I feel a lot of pressure when I feel someone's feelings.

"... when I fell into a pinch, Rage helped me."

The young lady said something was wrong.

"I'm sure that if Raige is a pinch, I'll help her to stay tense."But the feeling at that time... it's not like you want me to feel a burden. "

"Lady..."

"I don't know what El-sama was thinking."But, Rage, I wish you were you.Elle-sama protected Rage like that. "

I felt each word gently stinging.

He really looks at me and thinks about me.

"Are you like me...?"

The young lady laughed fluffily.

"Act as you see fit, Rage.That's why the dragons and everyone here are going to fight together.I'm always in the rage of nature-- "

Saying that, the young lady shut her mouth.

Lady?

"...... Let's go to bed. I need to build my strength to fight the goddess."

The young lady is right, it's a lot later at night.

I was a little curious about what the young lady said, but I decided to go back to my room.

The weight of my mind before was like a lie, and I slept well.

Start traveling the next morning and book a place to stay along the way.

It was a short distance to Lake Brunstoke, but there were only a few places where there was no goddess temple.

The morning of the showdown comes.
