I’m a humiliated, incompetent person, but I alone can talk to dragons, so I can choose all the SSS skills and loophole items I want to. I’m going to become famous and respected, so, to the people who humiliated me – Go die in a ditch - Chapter 49

“So, what do you want me to do with the requests?”
“Well,…….”
I thought for a moment and then answered Rose.
“I’m sorry, but with so many coming in, I’m going to have to pick and choose.”
“Yes, that’s better. You’re not the man you used to be anymore, you don’t have to sell yourself short.”
“No, that’s not what I mean.”
“Yeah? Then what is it?”
“It’s a request for the Dragon Knights Guild. It’s a request for a dragon to move.”
“That’s right. Well, in this case, a few of them are like, ‘I can’t miss this big wave!’ and not in that category.
Rose shrugged her shoulders and said with a slight chuckle…
“Is that so?”
“Some are just wanting to make a connection with you. I’m sure there’s a good mix of nominal requests that have nothing to do with dragons.”
“Oh.”
So that’s how it works.
“When you were just starting out, you went to work for the nobles for free, right?”
“Oh, ……, that makes sense.”
I nodded and agreed.
If that’s what it is I get it.
In fact, Miss Catherine’s case was less lucrative than the others, but I still took it.
Even if the payoff was small, I would have taken it if I could have made a connection.
In other words, I’ve arrived at the position I was looking up to at that time.
When I thought about it – I felt a little moved.
“Well, that’s all well and good. Normally, you’d let the dragons do the work.”
“Yes, usually.”
I brought the conversation back to the point, and Rose nodded.
“It’s not like I’ll be going to take every single request and abuse the dragons.”
“Is that what you mean?”
Rose chuckled.
Rose was deeply involved in the launch of the guild and Dragon First.
She’s the first person in the world who’s been exposed to my policies.
“That sounds like you.”
“I should say it’s my obsession.”
“Whatever the reason, I’m all for choosing a job. What do you say, do you want to pick something? Or do you want to turn them all down at least once?”
“Can I see what you’ve got?”
“Okay.”
Rose stood up, opened the door behind me, and called out to the outside.
I held the door open.
About a minute later, a man walked through the open door.
The man was carrying a bundle of papers.
He placed the bundle of papers on the table in front of me.
After putting it down, I asked Rose.
“Are you sure? I haven’t sorted out the details yet.”
“Yeah, I’ll take care of it.”
“Okay.”
The man nodded and walked out of the room.
After seeing him off and closing the door, Rose sat down in front of me again.
“This is all the request form. By the way, I heard there were twenty-seven more between now and then.”
“Really?”
I picked up a piece of paper from the stack.
It was in the form of a request form often seen on the bulletin board of the government office, so I could easily grasp the contents.
Most of them were decent requests, but Rose was right about some of them.
“There’s some really unimportant stuff in there.”
“Yeah, it just means you’re getting that popular.”
“I won’t do this kind of thing.”
In terms of give-and-take, the other side is giving me something, which is not so good.
I took out the proper request and looked at it.
“……?”
“What’s up?”
“This is …….”
My hand that had been sorting through them stopped.
I stared at the single request form.
Rose leaned over and peered at the request form.
“Rescue of a dragon cub that couldn’t get off a cliff………… that’s rare, if it’s a kitten it’s common but,” Rose read the request.
“Yeah.”
I nodded.
Occasionally, I am asked to rescue a cat that has climbed up a cliff or a tree and cannot get down.
Even if it’s hard for a human to climb the tree, it is easy for a dragon.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
That’s why dragon knights often receive such requests.
The rewards are usually low, though, so people don’t like to accept them.
This request was no different.
The reward for rescuing a cub dragon……… that was stuck on a cliff was only 5 reals.
“I’ll take it.”
“Are you sure?”
“A cub dragon is in danger, and I can’t let that happen.”
“That’s so you. Well, have it your way.”
Rose shrugged and laughed.
The words were those of a dumbfounded person, but Rose’s smile was more of a good-natured one.
☆
Louise and I headed for the cliff where the cub dragon was said to have gotten stuck.
It was close to the area where we had rescued the princess before, so I headed there with Louise, who had been there before, in order to get there quickly.
I rode on Louise’s back as we made our way.
“So you’re hoping I can help again?”
“‘That depends on the situation. If Louise can help, I’ll ask you. If it’s too difficult, I’ll do it.”
“Can you do that, Master?
“If I can turn into a dragonborn, yes. Rescue shouldn’t take too long, so I should be able to transform in a flash and save it in a flash.
I see. What kind of cub is it?”
“That’s one of the reasons I brought Louise, you here, from the description my client gave me that didn’t know much about dragons, based on the characteristics, I think it’s a Balaur-type, same as you.”
“I see. Then we have to help it.”
Louise seemed to be a little more motivated.
She seemed to be motivated by the idea of helping a child of her own species.
Riding on Louise’s back, they easily reached their destination.
It was only a few dozen meters away from the place where the princess had crashed.
You can see a small, dragon-like creature from a distance at a small ledge on the cliff.
“It’s shaking……. Poor thing.”
“Can you make it, Louise?”
“Well, the cliff doesn’t have any footholds, and the cub is too small it may get out of control…….”
“Okay, then I’ll do it.”
“I’m sorry, Master……”
“Don’t worry about it, you could do what you can do, but you can’t do what you can’t. No worries.”
“Thank you, Master.”
Louise was a little relieved when I said that.
I once again headed in the direction of the cub dragon.
“……transform.”
I mumbled and changed into the form of a dragonborn.
I can feel the energy draining from my body at that moment, but it’s not a problem.
With a thump, I kicked the ground.
In less than a second, I jumped up onto the cliff a few dozen meters away.
Before the dragon cub could even recognize me, I snatched it up and held it before it could get out of control.
Then I kicked the cliff wall and came back to where Louise was standing.
It took him less than three seconds.
“Master, that was amazing! I could hardly see anything!”
“Phew…….Thank you.”
I returned to my human form.
It took a lot of energy, even if it was only three seconds.
I knew I couldn’t use it too much.
I lowered the dragon cub in my arms to the ground.
From the top of the cliff to the ground in an instant.
The little dragon didn’t seem to understand what had happened and was puzzled.
‘Are you okay, are you hurt anywhere?”
I’m not sure if it’s because they’re the same species, but Louise spoke to the cub in a gentler tone than usual.
“Who are you, sister……?”
“I’m…what?”
Louise was about to say her name when she noticed something and stopped.
“What is it, Louise?
“This cub is not Balaur.”
“What?”
I looked at the dragon cub.
The newborn dragon cub, about the size of a puppy, was sitting on its haunches, looking up at us.
At a glance, it looks like a Baler cub.
“She’s one of the originals.”
“The original……?”
“Yes, um…”
Louise nodded.
I looked at the dragon child in surprise.
The dragons in the Dragon Knight’s possession were “farmed” by humans, so to speak.
And of course, there were dragons that were once beyond human control.
These dragons are called the “origin”.
They are very rare, probably only one in ten thousand dragons.
“It’s a Balaur Origin.”
“Balaur Origin.”
The first time that I saw the origin dragon, it stared back at us with a cute, puzzled look on its face.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
