Chapter 111
(Can’t move…)
I, in a situation of being a ghost due to death, gaze at the green dragon while being unable to move . This ghost state continues for two minutes and then, if you don’t take resurrection measures, you are forced to transfer to the front of the inn you last stayed in .
(Whatever the case, that last kamikaze attack was the correct decision . )
By the way, this ghost state can walk in a 2 meter area around your body . Of course, living people can’t hear you when you speak, and they can’t see your ghost form, but… if your companions are also ghosts then you can hold a conversation, so it’s possible to do things like discuss and reflect on things when your entire party is annihilated, for example .
(Right then, shall I obediently wait for 2 minutes…)
So thinking, I sat down cross-legged; at that moment .
Dossu~n, dossu~n, zu-shi~n
Three extremely huge shadows landed with that kind of loud sound . When I had just thought to see what was going on, a red dragon, a black dragon, and a white dragon landed . They came over here, but … did they come over to save their green dragon brethren?
“Begin quickly . ”
“”Yes sir . ””
As expected, they’re here to give aid to the green dragon, huh… so dragons are all of the same ilk, huh… so I thought as I watched, but for some reason they smeared tacky liquid over my own body . Furthermore, they’re not even looking at the green dragon; somehow, isn’t this weird?
[Someone is trying to revive you, will you accept? YES/NO]1
Huh? Why? And anyway, ways to revive are still unknown to players, but I can revive so easily? At any rate, there must be some reason they have to revive me, so I select YES .
“Uu, somehow, I’m dizzy . ”
It’s different from when you’re sent flying back to resurrect in front of the inn; I’m kind of unsteady . You get penalties and things when you resurrect with revival items in magic in a game; this might be one of those types of things that One More added .
“We are truly apologetic regarding the matter of this time . ”
When I look in front of me, the three huge dragons, the red, black, and white dragons, have plastered their entire bodies flat on the ground; even their huge heads are flat on the ground… uuuuh, the presentation is a bit questionable, but if I take this like a dog’s … Down! kind of thing … huh? Even though their faces are gruff, they’re kind of cute .
“Haa…”
I may have leaked out my true feelings, but if there’s a person completely the opposite of me who understands what is going on, please definitely introduce him to me . There’s a heap of things I’d like to hear about, but instead I’m not getting to hear about anything; that’s the kind of situation it is .
“You may have a lot of complaints about that, but first I’d like to explain the situation . ”
By the way, he’s still flat in the ‘down’ position .
“That green dragon you defeated, he was the Green Dragon Elder Emel, but … these past several years, we’ve had suspicions that he’s been recklessly using threats and the intimidation of dragons’ powers as the main core of his discourses . ”
Hm .
“We don’t know whether he’s doing so as he pleases or if he’s taking other measures, but he’s applied some method of averting the clairvoyance of myself and the Blue Dragon, so we have been unable to read into that guys’ actions . ”
N?
“Then couldn’t you send someone out as a spy or something?”
That kind of auditor would be necessary .
“It’s because you’re human that you have that sort of opinion… with the size of our bodies, do you think it’s possible to do covert activities…?”
A . I see, with that size…”
“No matter how much you try… you’ll be eye-catching . ”
Umu; the red dragon agreed like so .
“And so therefore the supervising was done with clairvoyance, but … we were splendidly fooled . Emel’s foul deeds were brought to light when a green dragon betrayed him, but… I think it’s the same for humans, but we needed definite proof; if we are unable to catch him in the act we’d be unable to punish him, no matter how much is said . ”
That hurts to hear . I know that stories like fabricating some sort of suitable evidence for a mistaken arrest is a common story . Did he have the same opinion? With a bitter smile on his face, the red dragon continued his story .
“But finally, this time’s incident has exposed it . He might have panicked as well, but when he was pursuing you and coercing the Fairy Queen, I was able to see the scene with clairvoyance by forcibly designating him by name . If it had not gone according to plan, I might have collapsed due to the hallucinations . ”
That’s going way too far, but…
“For that reason, we left the country intending to give out punishment to that Emel, but … for you, who is assuredly a human, to subjugate him is… I can say nothing, but splendidly done . ”
Just in case, I should probably ask, huh?
“Even so, you’re the king of the same race; is it okay that I killed the green dragon?”
Of course it can be said to be bad, but I have no intentions on apologizing .
“I don’t mind . If you were unable to defeat him, I had the intentions of tearing him apart and devouring him . In other words, that guy had no path of survival either way . Are you not aware that there are things that require a king to be ruthless?”
I can nod to that . Although she was threatened, the Queen who prioritized her citizens of that of a single human guest is also like that; this red dragon made the merciless judgment to cut off and throw away the green dragon that has ruined the country’s reputation . A king is an existence that protects a country; in order to protect that country he will be called to make authoritative decisions to cut off and throw away . A king is one who will throw away 10 to protect 100 . A king that can protect everything is just an illusion .
“Maa, I understand the discussion on that kind of thing . But I am unable to trust your side fully at this moment . If you want trust, you’ll have to continue to make suitable reparations to the other races you’ve inconvenienced . ”
With pursed lips, my boss at the company says that it takes 10 years to earn trust and 1 second to lose it, and I also think that’s true . Whether or not the dragon race will be able to take back that trust is a matter from now on, I suppose . At the very least, I as a single person am unable to trust them .
“That is painful to hear . But it’s something that shouldn’t be forgotten, isn’t it … when I return to the country, I will relay it to all of the dragons . And furthermore, all members of the green dragons will be disciplined . ”
I see, so he will go that far in respond .
“Furthermore, I have confirmed the outrageous truth that you have as of yet not been compensated for the cooking you made . Therefore we would like for you to accept this as that compensation, as well as an apology for troubling you in this current matter . ”
The presented items are 800,000Glo cash, ??? Bow, and a complete set of Dragonscale Light Armor .
“Also, it is fine for you to take all the materials you can take from the body of that guy you’ve defeated . ”
When I checked, it showed Dragon Leather x 120, Green Dragon Scale x 110, Superior Green Dragon Scale x 22, Dragon Bone x 85, Dragon Meat x 60 . This, if I circulate it badly through the marketplace, it will cause a huge fuss .
“Hm, Dragonscale Light Armor, huh…”
I don’t have the Light Armor Skill though; looks like it will become an unused treasure .
“Be at ease; it’s an article that was in the hands of dwarves, so therefore the weight is exceedingly light . It has no more weight than what the humans call robes . ”
Since the red dragon said that much I tried wearing it; the appearance is quite the splendid armor, with the color being mainly blue, but the weight is truly light . It’s like misleading, this is, for the appearance to be armor but the dexterity to be better than leather…
“With this equipment, I’m practically a fraud…”
When I muttered such, the red dragon grinned .
“Only this would do as thanks; a half-baked item would affect our dignity . ”
So it had that kind of meaning . Even if I circulated these goods in the market, I probably wouldn’t be able to get my hands on this kind of equipment; or like, there are dwarves in this world?
“So about this bow…”
There’s nothing else written other than ??? Bow; it’s the first time that the Attack and all the stats are displayed as ???, and on top of that I can’t equip it .
“That bow is an item of a fairy that fought me directly in the past . The bow is a strange one that will only recognize one who owns it for a long time and meets its requirements . Although you cannot equip it now, if you keep it for a long time, it may open its heart to you . ”
So this is a weapon with a will? It seems like it’s become an even more troublesome matter .
“And one final thing; our dragon bones have a special characteristic of being like iron so the dwarves who made that armor said that it would be helpful to reference if you were thinking to make a bow out of the bones . ”
So saying, the 3 dragon-samas stood up and headed in the direction of the Fairies’ Castle .
“From now on, I will be going around on a journey to all the different races to apologize, so I must excuse myself . One day I hope that you will become able to trust us, for my daughter’s sake as well . ”
Leaving those words behind, he flew up, that Dragon-sama . From now on, the world is going to get even noisier .
—
A/n:The equipment is practically all new . Earth will spend some time recuperating .
