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

― ― Halenae, the land of the desert.

The country is poorly resourced and covered with vast deserts filled with monsters, so there is no proper trade.

Such a Halenae still exists today because it is a sanctuary where brave men are born, and it is only because foreign countries are providing support.

There is no other way to survive as a nation.

However, the hero who was born 500 years ago died to protect the people from the evil dragon that appeared in Halenae.

"... you want to hear something strange, customer." I can't believe you're talking about the death of a brave man. "

"Yeah, that's why I came all the way across the Halenae Desert."

There was a big man visiting a small tavern in Halenae.

The man wears a thick cloak and hides his face.

A dark brown beard stands out from the slightly peeking face.

"... an adventurer, a customer?"

The man shakes his head at the words of the shopkeeper's woman.

"Not now." The monster bit me on the dominant arm's shoulder, and I couldn't move. I was still worried that I should keep my sword for my own protection, but I didn't like being a woman. I threw away my weapon, too. "

"... hmm. Any injuries will heal. It seems that an adventurer called" Dragon Hunting Volcker "is coming to this place, but that's not what normal people do."

The lady shopkeeper glanced around the man's right shoulder.

"Oh, it was real." That's what I want to see. "

Volcker's name was known to men.

A legendary swordsman rumored to be the strongest on the continent.

The two names are derived from the fact that he defeated the senior dragon by himself.

A monster-stained man jumped to the bottom of the cliff for training, but missed the boat, so he swam and chased after it, but that legend is not lacking.

When the monster broke its sword and ran out of goods, it was said to have bit the opponent to death.

As expected, it had a tail, but it was definitely a famous sword.

"Don't stop to ask about the brave." The church has a mouthpiece. If you don't listen well, you'll end up in the church. "

"If you're going to help me, I want you to be honest with me."

The man places a bag of money on his desk.

The lady shopkeeper frowns troublesomely.

Being a poor country, I'm happy with my unexpected income.

However, more than that, the female shopkeeper felt the smell of trouble when she looked like a serious man.

Leave him alone and this man will go around asking the same thing, and the soldiers will get into trouble.

"I don't know many of them either."

"It doesn't matter." More than the truth, I want to know how the people in the church are touching each other. "

"A wicked dragon suddenly appeared in the middle of the country and went on a rampage." At that time, the hero lost his life. At first, the church said that the brave man who tried to protect the country had lost his life... However, strange rumors about the brave people came out one after another. "

"Strange rumors?"

"I was about to be defeated by the Evil Dragon, and I tried to run away from the soldiers, or I was confused and slaughtered and killed the people..." At the end of the sentence, I had my travel companions, soldiers, and acquaintances in my hands before that... I tried to get the church to protect me and put the wrongdoing on the former head of the Knights of the country..... "

"That's terrible."

"I don't know how much it's true." But there was also the truth. Now the church says that the man wasn't a brave man... that a real brave man would appear in the near future. If you stand out and speak up, you can be put in jail... but in the shadow of everyone, I was wondering if it would be a good idea to keep a sign saying "The Land of Heroes"... would that satisfy you? "

"I see... if I asked from outside the country, there would only be something unusual." Thank you, I'm satisfied. "

The man sighed deeply after drinking.

"As advised, let's make sure to listen to them around here." I've done my part... but tomorrow I'll be in another country. I don't think there's anything better to be in this country anymore. "

"... goodbye. It's certainly a country for travelers, but... it's still our birthplace."

"That's not true, but... no, you said something bad."

At that time, the door of the store was flashily kicked.

Oh no!

The female shopkeeper exclaimed in surprise.

It was the six soldiers who came into the store.

Then, an old man in sacrificial attire appeared.

"What, what is this?!" Why are the soldiers in my shop?! "

The old man looked around the store and found a man and made his face steep.

"I found it! I saw you!"

The old man shouted with a rough voice.

Brave Killer Rebel… Former Commander of the Knights, Adolf Arrens!

"Former Knight Commander... you mean!"

The female shopkeeper shouted in amazement.

Man... Adolf Arrens stood up quickly, took off his cloak and exposed himself.

"It's been a long time, priests." But I'm sure you're not going to blame for this. The bishop said that to me directly. "

"I'm kidding! You said you were willing to reinstate me as Commander of the Knights, so I tried my best to make it easier!" Even so, you threw all your garbage at us and took refuge in another country! With the gratitude of the bishop, you put sand on it! "

The priest yells at Adov.

Once, Adov was about to be executed for buying a hero's grudges and dressing up as a guilty party.

At that time, the dragon saved my life and helped me avenge my hero.

It was a church that sheltered the brave, but on the occasion of the brave's death, his evil deeds leaked out one after another, and the church was afraid that it would lose its authority as its entourage.

I knew that Adov was wounded and unable to fight, but I tried to save the Church's authority by restoring him to the rank of Knight Commander in the form of a new symbol of Halenae, and at the same time by showing a farewell to the false heroes.

However, Adoff, who had already curbed the church, smelled his reinstatement and made the church admit that he was officially guilty of wrongdoing, then left a letter and left for another country.

Since then, Adov has been in other countries, but Halenae is his homeland.

With all the suspicious rumors coming out of my hometown, I went back to see how things were after the heroic commotion.

"I'm almost home." Can you quit? "

"Is that what you're going to do?" You know too much about the inside. I missed it if I could hold it, but if I didn't, I could let it get wild! Let's catch him! "

Hah!

Six soldiers surround Adov.

I'm retired as a warrior, I'm not afraid of you now!

"Be quiet and surrender. I won't take your life, Adov."

"You don't think you can do it without your hands without your dominant arm moving."

Adoff looked at their faces and then laughed with his nose.

"It's hard, I've seen a lot of faces like this."

"Hang on!"

At the same time as the priest's words, the soldiers flew to Adov.
