Reincarnated as a Dragon’s Egg ～Lets Aim to Be the Strongest～

Look lightly into the cave.

The cave is bricklayed inside, with pots lined up in the back.

I thought I'd take a peek at the kettle, but maybe not if I'm doing such a long thing.

It is possible that the host here will be back soon.

I turn to Yuno.

"Once we're done, we're turning back. Too many things are a little puzzling. If you stay too long, it won't be a big deal."

"Phew, good, I'm finally getting to that idea. Honestly, Yuno, I don't feel kind of alive when I'm here. Do you call it a wild survey, I hope it smells poisonous..."

The moment Yuno answered, the caveman said, "Gah!," he heard a dragon-like chirp.

I slammed Yuno's mouth and interrupted the words.

If a dragon catches you on such a narrow trail, it's not something I know what will happen.

Wait for a few seconds or so after the dragon stops ringing before I pull my hand out of Yuno's mouth.

"... you can't leave right now. Let's wait for that dragon to get far."

"Ha, ha no..."

At that time, things were heard from the back of the cave.

Yuno turns to the mushroom that shines quickly and towards the sound.

"Kissie!"

Big black lizard, honking as she stretches her tongue.

"Hey, what is it!" "Never be approached!

Benem Princess, it's a D-rank monster with the alias Princess Poison.

All powerful toxicity is at stake, but it is said that what is truly terrifying is the high level of its intelligence.

Fortunately, Benem Princess, Lecherta ran out of the cave avoiding us.

Good.

Fighting alone would not be difficult to win in and of itself, but perhaps both would have died without being able to detoxify them.

It's the D-rank, the most dangerous monster of all.

"Damn... what the hell is this place?"

I wanted to get out as soon as possible, but there might still be an earlier dragon outside.

We need to wait a little longer.

"Master Mertier, it looks like this pot contains spices. I've never seen him before."

"You think it's spices? Why are you here..."

When I looked at the contents of Yuno's peeking pot, it was full of red powder.

The scent stimulates the nasal cavity and increases hunger.

Only once, when I accompanied the merchant's escort, I remember smelling this scent.

"No way, red sand gold!?

"Uh, hey, is that Piperis?

Piperis is the plant on which this spice is based.

Because of its tremendously high value, Piperis, dried, crushed and powdered among merchants, is called 'red sand gold'.

In fact, the story is that some nobles have piperis as an asset.

It is often favored by pedestrians because the value fluctuates more than gold depending on the state of the country and economy.

The unit cost is high, but so much so that some specialist gold lending houses lend me a former hand in doing business with Piperis.

They tear into dreams because of it, and few pedestrians hang themselves......

The problem is the story of why that 'red sand gold' has about three large pots as a matter of course.

"Yuno! Yuno, I'm taking this with me! Just enough to fit in a handbag..."

"Ya, stop it! You're gonna stick your neck in a nasty case!

I finally see the whole story.

Perhaps this is a temple built by an old villager. That's for sure.

I know I don't have to build here, but I've heard the custom of building sacred buildings in dangerous places as part of demonstrating faith.

Either this place was another kind of it, or there used to be no more monsters here either.

But living here now is probably just a bunch of bandits.

I guess he's attacking a pedestrian, stealing 'red sand' and trying to hide himself here until most of it cools down.

Now I need to leave here to try not to irritate you and tell the other adventurers about this later.

With all this' red sand ', pedestrians should have hired quite a few escorts as well.

It must be a group confident in their arms to overthrow it, plunder it, and choose the depths of this monster-ridden forest as their safe haven.

Me and Yuno can't deal with it first.

There doesn't seem to be all of them now for some reason, but if the bandits come back... I don't feel comfortable thinking about it, I accidentally run my eyes to the exit of the cave.

A huge black tail looked stiff for a moment.

A dragon, the Lord of earlier ringing, is ambushing us outside the cave.

Silently I see Yuno.

Yuno also looks at me with a drawn face.

"Um... that tail..."

"Definitely. It still seems small, but it's a sickly dragon. Apparently, fighting is inevitable."

"Hih! Ya, a sick dragon is a pretty nasty dragon! Why, that's in this forest... Yu, Yuno, I don't want to fight that properly!

"... Relax Yuno, if that size is in the range of D-rank monsters... of, should be"

I desperately scratch and organize information from my head about the troubled dragon.

There are not many trustworthy records on the troubled dragon.

As it is, it tells the story of the low human survival rate encountered.

If it's like an anecdote, it remains, but I'd like to think it's just too exaggerated.

Eyed humans suffer and die sooner or later when hunting underground in brutal hobbies, they sometimes mimic the appearance of humans to shake, even in episodes of their hands, but are unlikely to be helpful.

If it's all true, the situation is packed now.

If the only information you get is despair, it's still better not to.

"We should cut the paralysis and show ourselves from the other side. Yuno will take the lead and create a gap. In the meantime, I'll take care of it."

"Ha, yes, no!

Yuno throws down the glowing mushroom and squeezes the hammer with both hands, then heads to the exit of the cave as he kills the footsteps.

I walk that diagonal back, with a sword to sharpen my senses.

Yuno shivers his pickles and temples and wields a hammer.

Yuno has a good idea. I guess I felt the enemy coming.

A monster who was staked out at the entrance finally shows up.

A man-shaped creature with a red and black, solid body surface.

Mannequins, but no eyes. No nose, no ears.

Only the mouth is large enough to cross the cheek, and from that narrow space you can see a line of sharp fangs.

The monster turned his wretched fingernails toward us.

It's definitely an earlier dragon.

Second, it reminds me of an anecdote about an ailing dragon.

Sometimes when confronted with an understatement and waved at each other, he said he could imitate what people looked like.

No way, is that true?

Because the two of us were considered inferior.

And now they're going to kill me.

I can't win. I can't.

After being ravaged, they are slaughtered.

I want my sword up my throat right now, and I want to keep hurting myself.

How many years has it been since such emotions erupted before the demons?

Yuno's anxious face caught my eye as I tried to change the direction of the sword tip to myself.

Right now, I'm keeping her life. I get noticed about it and manage to regain my spirit.

"Don't be cowardly, Yuno!

When I drink, Yuno re-grips the hammer that was slipping out of his hand.

"Ha, yes, no!

Yuno waves a hammer and punches a monster in the belly.

"Bugah!"

The monster flies lightly through the universe, but lands well in shape.

I step forward and put my sword on the moonlight.

I will use most of the remaining MP, but I have no ex or child to spare and be killed.

"[Luna Luchen]"

The moonlighted sword creates many spheres of light.

Light strikes a monster, causing a small explosion.

Break the body of the monster and jump to the universe. As it is, the monster strikes his abdomen to the ground.

"Gah, gah..."

You can't just take this and be safe.

It can't be, but I can't stay alert yet.

Yuno waves a hammer trying to stab Todome, but I send a signal with my hand and stop it.

It should be time for the nasty dragon to show itself.

To the extent that we have fought ahead, there is a large part of the battle that the diseased dragon is licking us to imitate the human figure.

Returning to the figure of the dragon should put both the movement and the strength of the scales out of step now.

You should get away with it before you can fight back.

Eye to eye with Yuno, then nod small, and we run towards the village.

I looked back along the way, but there was no way the monster was coming after me.
