Chapter 297 - Let's Receive a Scolding
『The power running around inside me is from a Devil King class monster Core . Consequently, it seems it's still rampaging wildly within me . 』
When the other members of the Four Guardian Sword Dragons, East Blue Season Sei and South Red Season Suza, also arrived at the room the White Party and West White Season Byaku had rushed to, Naga opened his mouth to explain . His voice was full of vitality, as if he had returned to being the God Dragon Emperor Naga he was before the devil attack .
『Naga's Dragon Spirit feels ferocious like magma instead of a clear stream like before . However, it's clear the power rivals his previous strength as God Dragon Emperor . 』
South Red Season Suza said with a nod . The Naga before his eyes was certainly emitting stronger and more invigorated Dragon Spirit than when he was using the Power Orb (small) . The feeling that he was barely alive when he was using the Power Orb (small) as a Core was gone .
『Compared to when I had a Rainbow Heart, it's about 80% as powerful? However, this Dairokuten Maou's Blood Orb still has room for growth . When I get used to it, I should be able to use it a little more skillfully . 』
『But I wish you would have told us you were changing your Core beforehand . I sensed an outrageous presence and rushed here from my Seal Palace . 』
East Blue Season Sei said with a sigh . Everyone in that place had felt the same thing, so they nodded .
『Sorry . Against my better judgement, I made merry in a manner unbecoming of my age . 』
Actually, since Kazane's smiling face was saying「Praise me! Praise me!」so excessively, Naga was influenced by her and said『Then shall we exchange it?』However, there was no way Naga would pin the blame on his wife .
After Naga's words, Jinrai alone nodded and said「That can't be helped . 」Some people around Jinrai thought (you've been making merry too much recently), but Jinrai didn't notice . In the first place, he was a man unfit for being a father who did whatever he wanted to do with no regard for his family . He was fundamentally a self-centered person, so that couldn't be helped .
『Well, since you're safe, it's fine, but please let us know in advance when you do such things . You are an indispensable existence for the dragons . 』
The only Oriental dragon in the room, West White Season Byaku, said . Naga apologized once again with a bitter expression .
『Nevertheless, a Core replacement? That usually isn't something that's so easily done . 』
West White Season Byaku continued with a sigh . The tuning hadn't gone smoothly when they tried to put in the Power Orb (small) the previous time, so in the end, it was connected by Kazane .
「Is that so?」
Yumika asked . Yumika's summon, Demon Wolf Kuromaru, was a monster who had replaced his own Core with a Childstone, so she was curious about what Byaku said .
「Yes . For monsters, that is to say, existences that rely on magical power as their main energy to live, the Core is their most important part . Even if their Core is replaced, if the power tuning doesn't go smoothly, they'll immediately die . Well, there's no mistaking that doing something like that is putting one's life on the line . 」
「But tuning can be done without any problems with the Window's functions, right?」
Kazane responded to Ao's explanation . Ao nodded to confirm Kazane's words .
「That's right . With the imitation of Zexiahart's Window that players possess, it's possible . It can reliably tune without any disorder at all . 」
「Haa, as ever, it has nonsensically high performance . 」
Yumika said with a frown . While she herself had been helped by the Window's abilities many times, its true character being completely unclear made it peerlessly eerie .
「I think it can be categorized as a so-called『cheat』 . To this day, I don't understand what it is . 」
Ao shrugged and replied to Yumika's words .
「Ao-san has been alive for 800 years, right? You didn't investigate it during that time?」
「I investigated it . The only thing we understood from the investigation was that we couldn't understand it . It is unmistakably constructed with very advanced magical techniques . . . but its structure is too complicated, so it's beyond our capacity . 」
「It's that difficult?」
「Its structure is made up of a tremendously high number of overlapping magic formulas . Each formula is connected one by one in an extremely complex manner, compressed, and arrayed into millions of units . I don't know of a single person who can unlock even one, so naturally, the contents are unidentified . The magical formulas are so advanced that they're like a CPU's circuitry . 」
Kazane, Yumika, and Naoki made mixed expressions after those words .
「Well, the operation alone is guaranteed . There have been no bugs in over 800 years . 」
Ao bitterly smiled and ended the conversation . He had resistance to using things he didn't understand . But this Window, which brought game concepts into everyday life, was too convenient . Ao desired power for the sake of dragonkind's prosperity, so not using it wasn't an option .
『Well, at any rate, sorry for causing you worry . 』
Then Naga brought back the conversation .
『Not at all . However, can't you restrain that ferocious Dragon Spirit a little?』
West White Season Byaku replied to Naga . Certainly, everyone could feel their skin tingling due to the intimidating Dragon Spirit emanating from Naga . Tiara and Emily in particular had pale faces due to being too strongly affected . It was genuine『Devil King's Intimidation』 .
『It's because I'm not used to it yet, but, well, it'll probably calm down when I get a little more accustomed to it . I apologize again, but I'll be inconveniencing everyone for a while . 』
『No, for Naga-sama, I think the impact of this level of tingling is for the better . 』
「Indeed . It feels like our Dragon Knights will become unable to stand when they see him, though . Well, that could be something to look forward to in its own way . 」
It seemed Naga's transformation was welcomed by East Blue Season Sei and Rynox . Though the transformation itself was also welcomed by the other Four Guardian Sword Dragons .
