The 5000-year-old Herbivorous Dragon-Chapter 114 - Important Matters That Were Completely Forgotten

I’m tired, but the battle is settled for the time being.

I settled down and looked over the plains lined with familiar faces. But I didn’t really understand the relationship between Ariante and Doradora in particular.

「You really have no idea? 」

「Let’s do it like this then. You really think I could lie? 」

「I don’t think you could…… Damn, this is troublesome. Moreover, it’s not an ally this time, but an enemy. 」

Ariante complained while scratching her hair. It seems that she is quite angry that she missed that self-proclaimed kin.

「Listen. Anyway, the next time he appears, you’ll have to fight him Rēvendia. It’s your win if you can nullify his attacks already. 」

「Ehh……I will have to fight such a scary guy? 」

「No one else can do it except you. Be prepared to do it without complaining. 」

「Well, I wonder if I could even restrain his movements……I wonder if I can really do it…… 」

Ariante’s knife hand struck my head, even though I was already slumped down thinking about the future.

Please stop reprimanding me, I was hoping for encouragement.

「You can do it. You just went and protected the kin girl just now. That was a great act of courage. Well, it was a good result at the end, but it was kind of a stupid tactic if you carefully think about it, though. 」

「I just moved reflexively that time. It isn’t an act of courage or anything like that. 」

「When I was beating you at Peryudōna, you just sat down and couldn’t move at all. Even if you are just moving reflexively this time, it was a great progress compared to that time. 」

After that, Ariante carried Raiotto, who was on the ground, on her shoulder. Then she reaches for the cursed sword that is pierced on the ground.

「Ah! Don’t do that! If you touch that sword, you will be controlled! 」

However, I was not able to warn her fast enough, and Ariante grabbed the handle.

「Haha! Idiot! This time I will—Tteya?!」

「Don’t lump me with this kid. I haven’t trained so poorly that I can be controlled by this kind of curse— but this is sure a decent sword. 」

「Sh*t! Let me go! I won’t lend you my power! 」 𝐟𝗿𝚎𝐞𝓌e𝒃𝑛𝒐ѵ𝒆𝑙.c𝚘𝓶

Ariante ignored the cursed sword’s words and slammed it into a sword’s scabbard to block its voice.

「Well, we should go before this reckless kid wakes up. 」

「Ah, I would like to thank him if possible. Because Raiotto helped me a bit. 」

For him, I was an existence that was equal to Rēko’s enemy, but he still helped me escape.

「It’s no good. He may rampage around if he regains his consciousness, or he may go and try to persuade that kin girl. It’s unlikely that she will be persuaded by him— but, it is clear from the battle just now that the kin girl sees him as a friend. If he says something strange, her beliefs may fluctuate and she may run wild. It is a good idea to just bring him home from here. 」

「That’s a shame…… Then, when he wakes up. Tell him this, “Someday, Rēko will be a normal child”. 」

「I will be in trouble if I don’t. 」

Ariante nodded with a bitter smile. Then she waved her arms and called Doradora.

The silver dragon came in a lawful manner, but he was staring at me with a terribly scary face. 𝐟𝓇ℯ𝒆we𝒃𝘯𝒐νe𝑙.co𝚖

「Ah, umm…… I have been curious about this for a while, but why is Dragon-san here? Moreover, he gets along with Ariante. 」

「Ah this guy. He is sticking to me because he wants to get stronger or something like that. He is so persistent about it so I am using him instead of a horse. 」

As I was nervous and frightened by his eyes, Doradora snorted.

「I see, so this is the true character of a strong man. To be able to take the “Great Claw” without even a scratch—I admit, Evil Dragon Rēvendia. You are far above me. But, remember the me right now well. Even if I am not an enemy right now, I will grow up as a mighty dragon comparable to you one day. At that time, I will break this abominable name of Doradora, and regain my true name—」

「Err. What’s wrong with this guy. He suddenly started to talk a lot. 」

「Ah, just leave him alone. He says something similar to that three times a day. 」

「U-umm? 」

Even if I gently distance myself, Doradora continues to declare his determination without any sign of stopping. Perhaps he had something important in his heart broken that day when he was trained by Rēko.

For the time being, I bowed a little to apologize.

「Oi Doradora. Go over there, let’s fly home. 」

「—Ah. Understood. 」

「See you again Rēvendia. But, are you sure it’s okay? Isn’t that stuffed animal monster still alive? I can take care of it here if you want. 」

Ariante, who threw Raiotto on Doradora’s back, pointed at Rēko and the others.

Sousou’s ears were grabbed by Rēko and was completely restrained, and the ikemen-san who seems to have difficulty even standing is being watched by Sheina. By the way, spirit-san is sitting next to them.

「I don’t think that they are bad demons from the very roots. I’ll try to convince them, maybe they will be friendly demons, just like Doradora-san. 」

「Is that so…… I hope that it works, but if you fail to convince them, get rid of them on the spot. It will be a problem to leave a root of evil alive. 」

「Don’t say scary things like that. 」

After telling me the scenario that I didn’t want to imagine, Ariante ordered Doradora to take off.

The silver wings shook the grass on the plains, and they started to ascend, casting a shadow on the ground. They floated to a high point in the sky, and disappeared in the direction of Peryudōna.

「Then. I’ll try to convince Sousou-san. I hope she will understand……」

However, I remembered an important concern that I had forgotten, when Rēko was grabbing her ears and with a terrifying aura sent a gaze as a signal to Sheina.

「Hah! Come to think about it, I haven’t explained to Rēko that the royal capital was a fake! 」

Sousou’s life might have been as light as the wind now.
