The parameters of the "Dragon Vein" skill are now displayed after casting a ward.



The King's territory "Ryuju Castle

　Lord of the castle: Lisette-Luge
　Relationship: Sister-in-law (Race: Dragon Bloodline)
　Warding effect: Keeps away demons
　Additional effect: 15% increase in defense
　Chain of Custody: None.



"...... chain?

　I know what a defense increase is, but what is a chain?
　...... I'll look it up when I get home.

There's a lot I don't know about this skill.
"Brother Shoma!

　It came out of nowhere.
　Lysette came up behind me and hugged me.

"Thank you!　Brother!　Thank you, .......
"Lysette, ......?
"Now Lysette is useful to everyone. No more demons will come to the abandoned castle, and we can clear the forest around it. It's all thanks to my brother ....... ...... That's right!

　Lysette clapped her hands happily.

Look at this!　I'm not sure what to do.　I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that.

　Boom.

　I'm not sure if it's a good idea or not.
　It struck and gouged the ground near the castle wall. The blast also collapsed part of the castle wall...

You're not supposed to destroy your own castle!
"I'm sorry, ......, I just... I was just happy to see you. ......

　Lysette clasped her cheeks and turned her head away.
　It was like a child whose mischief had been discovered.

　I'm sure you've heard of it, but I'm not sure if you have. She's only 15 years old. I'm in my 30's and I'm dazzled.

"That's a lot of power ...... Liz sister.

　Haruka rolls her eyes.
　Then she scratches her long red hair and smiles mischievously...

"Maybe this will make your dreams come true. Liz!
"Wow. Haruka, you're in front of your brother Shoma!

　Lysette is turning red and waving.

"A dream?
Yes. She has a dream, you know.
...... Can you please stop laughing?

　Lysette looks at me with tears in her eyes.

I'm not laughing.
I have two dreams: to find and defeat the enemies of the world, and to change this helpless world.
".............
You laughed, didn't you?　Brother.
I'm not laughing. I'm not laughing.

　I'm not laughing at ....... At least, I have no right to.
　Because that's the same ....... as me when I was a child.

It's just a childish dream I've had since I was a little girl. ......
Liz grew up without knowing her father, and her mother died when she was very young.
When my mother died, I thought. I couldn't believe that such a terrible thing could happen. There must be bad people in this world creating tragedies.
That's why they used to drag me along to find the bad guys.
I'm ashamed to admit it.
I was a little girl. I can't help it. Hey, big brother.
............ Oh, oh.

　Ouch, ouch, ouch.
　It hurts so much to hear that.

But you've had this dream for a long time, haven't you, Liz?
"It's hard to tell other people about ...... 'defeating the enemy of the world' or 'changing the world'.
............ Ugh.

　I know why I thought ...... Lisette was "dangerous".
　It's because she's like the old me.
　I guess Lysette and her friends are much, much more realistic than I was back then.

"Don't you laugh?
"No, I'm not laughing.

　On the contrary, I'd like to help .......


　I couldn't have done it on the other side.

Hey. Shoma!　Lisette-sama, Haruka!
I don't know why I was able to defeat the demons so easily, but what the hell is going on?

　I'm not sure what to make of it.
　We explained the situation to the two startled people.
　I'm sure you've heard of it. The range of the demon repellent has been expanded.
　Mr. Garunga kept nodding his head, as if he didn't quite understand.
　When I finished speaking, he clapped his hands and said...

"Tonight we're having a sakamori... ────!

　He raised his fist to the sky and started running toward the village.
　I'm glad you like it. .
　I'm not a drinker, so I can't go out with you.

By the way, I'm going to stop by the Dragon Emperor's Mausoleum on my way back, Lysette, will you accompany me?
Of course. But what are you going to do?
I'm going to see if Lysette can get into the Dragon Empire.

　If I awaken the Dragon Seed, I can open the door.
　And then Lisette will be able to get in. I want to see if the dragon emperor's dream reacts to Lysette too. If she can use the same skills as me, we should be able to defend the village more easily.

Since Lisette became the lord of the castle with the Dragon Emperor's skills, maybe the Dragon Emperor will approve of Lisette.
"I understand.

　I'll try.

I'll give it a try. I'll give it a try. My brother Shoma, who has the power of the Dragon Emperor, will send me. It's the same as the Dragon Emperor calling you.
"What about Haruka?
Hmm?　Of course I'll go with you.

　Haruka puts her hand on her chin and nods her head yes.
It's the first step to her wish to change the world. I'm going to ask the Dragon Emperor to make my dream come true too.
What's Haruka's dream?
To find the home of the demon tribe.

　For some reason, Haruka said with a faraway look in her eyes.
　She nodded, holding her large chest with one hand.

The demon tribe's home is not really here. It's said to be a more peaceful land with a beautiful lake. That's where the first demon princess gave birth to and raised the first demon tribe.
There's a myth about that. ......
It's more of a history. My great-grandfather heard stories from the people who lived there.

　I'm not sure what to make of this.
　Of course, that means there were towns and villages where they originally lived. It's natural to want to go back there, right?

There's a legend that it's the dream of the demon tribe to one day find their home, and that the demon princess will grant their request to those who fulfill it. I dream of one day taking everyone to my hometown and having them do me a favor.
"I see. So, what's your wish?
"...... secret.

　Haruka, for some reason, held her chest and slumped down.

I'll just say that it concerns the future of the demon tribe. I'll tell you about it sometime.

　Then Haruka fell silent.
　There seems to be a deeper reason. There's no need to ask.

　What I'm going to do is the same. I'll defend the village and support Lisette and Haruka.
　I'll do what I can to thank them for their help.
　If possible, ...... I'll even make Lysette and Haruka's dreams come true.

So let's go home and relax.
Yes, brother Shoma, let's go home. Brother.

　And so we started walking towards the village.
