Chapter 251
I was clad in my wood armor so I was able to catch Nagini as she fell out of the entrance . She spoke haltingly as she was out of breath .
「Intruding… . you pierced through the Mausoleum’s barrier ssu…? A barrier that can withstand dragon attacks…you… . . 」
「Ahh, yeah I heard that if I entered the Mausoleum without doing anything about it I would get attacked by lightning…so I broke it a little bit following Hesty’s instructions . I’ll fix it later so forgive me for that . 」
So I should say, as expected of Hesty . She was able to analyze this wall barrier, how it was made and designed . But at the moment I’ll leave that aside and focus on Nagini .
She was covered in wounds and I could see blood all over . Even so she hadn’t let go of the girl she was carrying in her arms . Most likely the one in her arms was her elder sister .
As I checked over her sister I couldn’t see any wounds on her body .
「Ah…I see . I see how hard you’ve worked to protect her Nagini . 」
I said and Nagini’s face warped as tears began flowing out of her eyes .
Then her tottering body collapsed onto my armored body .
「Oioi, are you okay?」
「u,uu… . I-I’m sorry ssu . I just felt so relieved…that my body loosened up…」
「Don’t worry about it . If it’s just the two of you I can easily bear the weight . 」
「T-thank you ssu… . . Master……」
Nagini said as she looked up at my face . At nearly the same instant,
「WHICH BASTARD BROKE MY CASTLE…!!!」
A huge shout echoed out as eight dragon heads broke through the tree wall I had created in front of the entrance .
「So that’s they Founding Dragon that tried to kill you guys? It looks more like Yamata no Orochi . 」
「Y-yes… . ! I deeply apologize for getting you involved in this ssu…!」
As Nagini confirmed my words the Orochi over there finally caught sight of us .
「I had thought I sensed something strange when Nagini arrived… . so it’s a human and Dragons in human form who have come for some reason…」
It said glaring at us with bloodshot eyes .
It was a gaze filled with rage and mixed with some surprise .
「… . . no, it doesn’t really matter that some dragons have arrived . The most important part is that something like a human has intruded upon our matters…it’s a grave crime . Those things are mine . Those are my flesh yet you… . . 」
The Founding Dragon continued to speak and grew more irritated . He pointed towards Nagini and her sister that were protected behind my back .
「… . Human…If you hand them over I can let you go with only taking a limb or two . I’ll spare your life . Give them to me . 」
「Oioi, I’ve got plenty to say about that but…these girls’ bodies are their own and no one else . You’re really saying some mistaken garbage there Founding Dragon . 」
At my words the Founding Dragon’s face warped and it bared it’s teeth .
It was a bit difficult to read dragon faces but I got the distinct feeling it was even more irritated now .
「… . little human worm…you intend to cover for those failed materials?」
「Of course . 」
I said and Nagini gripped onto me with her arms .
「Master… . you’ll stay by our side ssu…?」
I simply nodded in response .
Lightning and flames began overflowing from the Founding Dragon’s heads .
「I see…so you’re saying that you don’t want to live…」
It appeared to be filled with anger and its motivation was at an all time high .
「Those things were raised by me . No matter how I treat them…it’s my business . How insolent to cut in and tell me how I should handle them… . !!」
「Well you know if it was just a normal household issue I wouldn’t interfere…It wasn’t my intention to interfere in your family plans in the first place . 」
But this time was an exception .
「Since this girl came seeking to be my disciple she’s shown me that she is nothing but an admirable and good girl . I have no intention of stepping aside and allowing you to harm her . 」
At the very least I would not let this girl who I had watched over die on my watch .
Furthermore…
「Founding Dragon…you said that you’d crush the people of the city and the forest as well right? I can’t let that pass either . That’s where my house is and the location of some of the people I like best…」
That’s right . If he had his way he’d crush both my disciple and the places I loved… .
「—In that case…I’ll simply crush you here with all my power Founding Dragon…!!」
