"- What a way to treat us!　My dear children in chains!"

　The dragon was understandably enraged.

　The three baby dragons that were found were cute little creatures, only about one meter long.

　They had been chained to their necks with iron fetters inscribed with magic and chained so that they could not move.

　Even though the dragon was a threat, it was still an unpleasant sight.

"Wait for me, my mother will save you now!"

　The children were listless, but when they spotted the burning dragon, their faces lit up with joy.

　They must have understood that he had come to help them.

　Hearing the three of them squealing, the mother gripped the chains, trying to tear off the fetters.

　--A moment later, the chains discharged and made a sound of rejection.

"-- d*mn you!"

　The dragon's supple fingers burned, its claws popped, and fresh blood danced in the air.

"What the hell was that?

"You'll do a d*mned thing. This thing is enchanted to harm you if you try to force it out of its bonds. This could harm the children if they try to release them."

"Albert did this?　What the hell did you do that for?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... I don't think Albert is capable of such finesse, though."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Indeed."

　I can't help but nod in agreement with Günther.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is unlikely that Albert, a fire power idiot, would be able to do such a detailed job. There must have been someone else who could have helped him.

"Then let me take care of it."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Wait!　You'll get the same thing!"

"I know. But I want to try something. --Skill release, Kirisakumono.

　If they harm us when we try to remove their fetters, let us destroy them before they do so.

　Sam released his skill and traced his fingers across the shackles and chains that would deprive the dragoness of her freedom.

　The next moment, the fetters and chains restraining the dragon cub are broken without a sound, and it falls to the ground.

"You fool, you, that's..."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Thankfully, it's my skill set."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"If I had fought you like that, would I have been cut down?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Worst case scenario. Yes!　I've cut it all off, I'm free!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　When all the restraints were broken, the children, who had fallen down helplessly, stood up and cried out when they saw their mother.

　The burning dragon rushed toward the children and embraced them with all his strength.

"Oh, my dear children!

"Squeak, squeak."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I'm sorry. I didn't think you'd be kidnapped while I was away!　Forgive my mother!　I'm so glad you're safe!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The burning dragon is bursting into tears, rejoicing that his children are safe.

　The cubs also shed tears from their eyes and rubbed their faces against their mothers' and cried.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Whatever it is, I'm glad you're all right."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes, it is. At least we can consider the national crisis ...... over."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I don't know. Someone takes a child from its mother for personal gain. This country is in danger.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Certainly. But I hope you realize that not all aristocrats are like that.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I hope you're right."

　Sam looks on, conversing with Günther in a low voice so as not to dampen the reunion of mother and child.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　From the burning dragon embracing the children, Sam could certainly sense a maternal quality that she did not know existed.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She must be a kind mother in her own nature.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　That is why she turned into an angry dragon when her precious children were taken from her.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Sam was truly thankful that her children were safe.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After a while, the mother and the child of the dragon were happy to see each other again and turned to Sam and Günther.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Wiping his tears, the dragon approached Sam and opened his mouth.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

You have brought my child back safely. I thank you - your names are Samuel and Günther, I believe.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Just call me Sam. That's what everyone close to me calls me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well, Sam, and Günther. My sincerest thanks to you both.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She kneeled down, put her hands on her chest and bowed her head.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Perhaps this is the dragon's way of saying thank you.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"You don't have to thank me so grandly. It was our fault to begin with. Now get your face up."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... got it."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I'm sorry, human. I'm so glad you and your family are safe.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

You don't need to apologize. I don't think all humans are bad. Although, when I was in a rage, I wanted to kill them all.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Is it safe to assume that you are no longer hostile to humans?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The dragon nodded at Günther's question.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I'm angry, but now that I have my child back, I don't care. Besides, it was humans who took the child, but it was also humans who helped us rescue it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Thank you for your mercy."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Günther expressed his gratitude for the forgiveness.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Sam follows his example and bows his head.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　We have learned more than enough from this incident that dragons are a threat.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　One can only hope that the foolish nobles will not do anything stupid in the future.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well, it's depressing to stay in this dingy basement forever, let's go outside..."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Mm. I'll do it. Now, children, follow your mother.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Squeal!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Günther leads the way up the staircase that connects the underground to the ground.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　On the way up, Sam notices one of the baby dragons staring at him and gives a small smile.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Then, one of the little dragons made a "squeal" and rubbed its head against Sam's. Sam looked at the little dragon with a small smile.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Hm?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well, the boy has found out that you are his benefactor, and he likes you."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I'm glad to hear it. May I pet you?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

No problem. Be gentle with him."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　With his mother's permission, Sam reaches out and pats the dragon cub on the head.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The scaly skin was a little soft, perhaps because it was still a child.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Sam thinks the little dragon is cute as it squints and squeaks pleasantly.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　On that day, his opinion of dragons, which he had only thought of as dangerous, changed a little.
