“ ……”
Six was still so intimidated by Chris, that he couldn’t respond.
“Chris?” I said.
“Hmm, I guess you won’t be able to have a conversation if I’m around,” Chris said.
He understood the situation and disappeared from the window.
Six looks obviously relieved.
The moment Chris disappeared; the atmosphere suddenly changed.
Seriously that much? I thought.
“Are you okay?” I asked.
“Oh, yeah,” Six nodded and looked at me.
A faint hint of respect came into his eyes.
“I didn’t know you owned a monster like that. It’s more than I’ve heard,” Six said.
Owned, huh?
That’s how the world perceives, I guess.
Well, there’s no need to deal with this man’s perceptions every time.
“More importantly, I’ve decided to accept your request,” I said.
“Oh, yeah. Oh, I see.” Six said.
“ahem…”Six coughed to clear his throat.
I think it’s a way to make up for the disgrace Chris caused in front of him.
He succeeded somewhat, regaining the arrogant look he had when he appeared and took out a sheet of paper and an iron tag from his pocket.
He held it out to me.
“What’s this?” I asked.
“First, go to where the paper says and get the package. I’ll tell you where to take it along with the package.
“I see.”
I opened the paper.
It’s a pretty extensive map.
It shows the city of Boisroussel, the surrounding terrain, and the destination.
From the way the map is drawn, I’d say it’s about a day’s drive each way.
“Well I’ll… leave the rest to you,” Six said. starting to pack.
“Okay,” I said.
I nodded and sent off Six.
At the end of the day, he was even more arrogant than when he first arrived, probably because he wanted to make up for his mistake.
“It’s tough I guess…”
I wondered if he had to go that far to make up for it.
I felt a little pity for him.
☆
The next day, I left the city of Boisroussel with the dragons.
Louise, Colette, and Emma were walking side by side, and Chris was following behind them.
I’m riding on Louise’s back.
This road that the dragons are expected to take, is spacious enough for this line of dragons to walk.
“So, where are we going first?” Colette asked as we walked.
“Oh, the map says it’s an old fort. It says the name is …… Nealco,” I said.
“Oh, Nealco?” Chris responded.
“Do you know him, Chris?” I asked.
“I know a guy with the same name who charged into the middle of a hundred thousand people with eight hundred men and drove them back. He’s a pretty tough guy for a human,” Chris said.
“wow,” I said.
“If we’re talking about a fort, it might have been named after him,” Chris added.
“I see,” I said, giving a small nod.
“Going there and receiving the Dragon Tears Balm is my job Master?” Colette asked.
“Apparently so. They’re supposed to tell me where to take it.” I said.
“And I’m supposed to carry it?” Colette asked as we walked.
“Yeah, you’re going to have to carry a few extra things, but I’m counting on you, Colette,” I said.
“Hmm. Well, I’ve got plenty of room to carry things,” Colette said, passing the conversation lightly.
That’s actually the most important thing, but I’ll explain it later.
☆
The next day, after about a day’s walk as I had guessed, I saw the old fort.
There was a river in the distance, and an old fort standing against it.
That was probably Fort Nealco.
We walked closer.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
The four dragons, especially Chris, who looked like a medium-sized type-phoenix, were probably visible from a distance, and even though we were still a long way away, the people on the walls of the fort started to move in a hurry.
As we got closer, the door of the fort was tightly closed, but a man asked from above the door in a bellowing voice,
“Who the hell are you?”
“Is this Fort Nealco?” I asked.
“If so, what is your business?” the man shouted.
“Look at this.” I said, taking out the iron tag from my pocket and holding it up.
“It’s …… you, from that ridiculous guild called Dragon First,” the man said.
“Yeah, yeah.”
I wanted to argue when they said ridiculous guild, but it was pointless, so I let it pass.
On top of the castle wall, the man who had asked me questions gave some kind of signal towards the back.
There was some movement at the back, and after a minute or so, the door of the fort slowly opened.
The gate, which was large enough for a medium-sized dragon like Chris to pass through, opened.
We waited for it to open fully.
“Shall we?” I said to the four of them.
The four of us, including Louise who was riding with me, walked out at once and entered the fort.
As soon as we passed through the gates, we were for some reason surrounded.
The people inside the fort were dressed like bandits.
You can tell at a glance that they did not make a decent living, and they are surrounding us with their weapons at the ready.
“Cyril-san!?” Louise said.
“What the hell are these humans doing calling people over here?” Chris said.
“Master. I’m not sure what to do,” Colette said.
The three of them all focused their gaze on me at once.
Emma seemed a little frightened by the suddenness of it all, and Colette seemed a little pissed off by the moment.
I looked around.
I saw a man who looked like the boss walking comfortably from the back.
“I’ll handle this. Don’t do anything until I give you the signal.”
With that, I jumped off Louise without waiting for an answer.
Immediately after, the rough enclosure surrounding us cracked.
The man we had seen earlier, who looked like the boss, broke it open and stood in front of us.
“Are you the Guildmaster of Dragon First?” the man asked.
“Yeah. What the hell is this?” I asked back.
“This?”
The man looked around – at his own men – and shrugged.
“I’m sorry, but this is my first request, can you show me what you can do?”
“… Didn’t You guys asked me to come here?”
“It’s often the case that rumors are not as good as they seem.”
“…… I see.”
I didn’t need to ask what I should do.
The man took a step back and waved his hand for a signal.
Then all of a sudden, the people surrounding us attacked us at once.
“Master!” Colette shouted.
“……”
I remained silent and thrust my hands out to the left and right.
Then, I spread my ten fingers.
Immediately afterward, excluding the right thumb, flaming bullets flew out of the remaining nine fingers.
Skill【Nine Fingered Flame Bomb】
A huge number of flaming bullets were ejected from the nine fingers as if they were being “scattered”.
The flaming bullets attacked the surrounding men.
I didn’t aim at them at all but shot them anyway.
Since they were scattered in large numbers, they hit the target without aiming.
The lucky ones only took three or four shots. However, some took more than ten shots, and their whole body was on fire making them flail around the room.
When all the attackers were burned and there was no one left to attack, I stopped shooting the flaming bullets.
I looked at the man again.
The man had stepped back from the mess, so he hadn’t been hit.
The man’s eyebrows were twitching.
“… You did great” He said with a hint of defeat in his voice.
” I guess I passed your test,” I said.
“Yeah, fine. …… Follow me.”With that, the man turned around and walked away.
He shouted and called his other men to put out the fire and rescue the injured.
We followed him through the crowd.
“That was a bold move,” Chris said.
“Bold?” Colette wondered when Chris said that.
“You released all your energy reserves at once, didn’t you?” Chris asked.
” You can tell? Yes, that’s right, that’s about thirty percent of it,” I nodded.
This ability that I acquired through my contract with Colette.
It’s the ability to turn what you eat into formless energy and store it.
The more you eat, the more you can store, and there seems to be no upper limit at the moment, but it hasn’t been long since I acquired it, so I haven’t been able to store that much yet.
I used thirty percent of it in this one moment.
“Are you okay, Master?” Colette asked.
‘Yeah, it was a necessary scene,” I replied.
“Gwahahahahaha, that’s my true friend. It was a necessary moment. That was a great decision.”
Chris was praising me with a big smile on his face, as he always did.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
