"Well, I'm going home. If there's anything I can do... Put a piece of paper in this box with the information you want me to tell you and leave it outside.

I gave Jimbi the empty wooden box I had left over and urged Soleil to return to Agartha.

"Oh no! You can't just give it back to them without any hospitality..."

Jimbi rushes to push me away.

"No, if anyone sees me meeting with someone from this village, there will be a problem. I am an uninvited guest. I'll leave as soon as I've done what I have to do.

The villagers are calling my name. I walk down to Ilimo, raising my right hand and bailing. I look like a candidate in an election.

"See you later!

I got on the Ilimo with Soleil and we went through the forest. After a while, Cradle, the spirit of this forest, appeared.

"Master Soleil, Master Linos, I will show you the way.

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

Thank you, Cradle. Can you take us to the top of the mountain?

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

"Awe, sir."

Once again, the spirits' signposts shone brightly in the forest. We followed them to the summit of Mount Banzavi.

We soon reached the summit and looked down on the Irbezi River below. The border area between Agartha and Hideta is in full view from this high mountain.

"Okay, Ilimo, take care of the trip to the capital!

"Leave it to me."

Ilimo spread his wings wide and soared into the sky.

He turned north along the Irbezi River. The Juka and Lunois mountains are visible in the distance. It is almost April, but there is still snow on the ground, and the view from the sky is truly beautiful. I was thinking that the melting of the snow must be slow because of the high altitude of the mountains, when I was thrown into the air by a tremendous shock to my body.

"Master!

Soleil's voice comes down from the top of the fast falling toward the ground. I tried to re-establish my warding in a panic, but at that moment, my falling speed rapidly slowed down. I noticed that Soleil was holding me in midair, and her wings were flapping. It seemed that Soleil had used the wings on my back to hold me in place.

Slowly we land on the riverbank. And then Irimo comes down from the sky after us.

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

"Are you okay, master?"

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

"Yes, thank you, Ilimo. If Soleil hadn't held me up, I would have been seriously injured by now.

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

"I was surprised when I suddenly fell off of Ilimo. I'm glad you were not hurt.

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

"Oh, I got a sudden shock, and when I came to... gosh!"

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

I get hit again and am blown several meters off the ground. As I try to stand up, I get hit again and am blown away again.

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

"G... what? What the... Gah!"

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

I'm on my face after being blown off, and this time I receive a shock to my back. I roll over and try to escape from the impact. I look closely and see that the place where I was lying is gouged out and a small crater is formed.

"Juukaijikai!"

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

As I get up, I reattach the thick, shock-absorbing warding. Moreover, on the outer shell of the warding, I put a warding that has a tremendously sticky effect the moment it is touched.

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

Immediately after that, a hole like a thin straw is made in the warding. It was coming closer to my body little by little, but eventually it stopped moving. As I tried to get a good look at the tip of the hole, something huge shot up into the sky as if it was blowing out from there.

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

It was a huge dragon with light blue scales.

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

"A dragon...?"

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

I let out an involuntary yelp. The dragon stays in the sky, slowly moving its two wings on its back, staring at me. I activate my appraisal skill on the dragon.

...What is this? Is it garbled? ... This seems to have been intentionally rewritten. In any case, it means that he is skilled enough to block the appraisal skill. That means he is very skilled. We cannot be too careful with this guy.

The dragon in the sky lets out a gurgling moan, and a dazzling light shoots out from its body. I quickly reapply the hardest possible warding to myself, Soleil, and Ilimo.

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

When the light subsided, I saw a beautiful young man standing in front of me.

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

"...warding level 2..." he said. You've got to be kidding me.

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

The young man speaks to me in a neutral voice, which I cannot distinguish as male or female.

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

"That's just as well, isn't it? Who the hell are you? What are you assaulting me for?"

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

The young man grins and opens his eyes wide.

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

I am the Dragon King. I am the Dragon King, and I want my Shinjo back!

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

"Sinjo? Oh, you mean Fairy? That's my pet. Give it back? He became my pet because he wanted to. Don't talk to me like I stole it. I mean, haven't we had this conversation once before?"

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

You're not going to give it back to me no matter what, are you?

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

That's what I'm telling you. I'm telling you... the faeries want us here. It's not a matter of whether or not to give it back, is it? Listen to what people have to say."

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

"I don't have a choice. Then don't ask questions!

The man who calls himself the Dragon King closes the distance in an instant and moves to stand right next to me. His right hand has already transformed into a dragon's hand, and its claws strike me. But the claws are blocked by the warding. The Dragon King stops moving for a moment. At that moment, I take out my Holy Sword from the infinite storage and swing it at his arm.

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

Kiiiiinnn!

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

There is a beautiful sound like the ringing of a bell. I am sure that I cut the Dragon King's arm, but his arm was completely unharmed. The Dragon King jumps up into the air and distances himself from me.

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

"It's no use. My body is protected by the sacred scales. Any attack is useless! Hmph."

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

The Dragon King smiles wryly. As I recall, the Holy Sword is extremely sharp against evil, isn't it? That means it won't work against the scales of the Dragon King. Thinking so, I quickly switch my sword to "Onikiri".

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

"Well, that's quite a fearsome sword! It's a very devious sword... Let's see if it can cut me!

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

The Dragon King charges at us again. I slash the Dragon King from the top of his head without hesitation.

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

The Dragon King caught Onikiri's slash with his left arm. This seems to do no damage to Ryuoh. I notice that Ryuoh's right arm is burning bright red.

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

"Get out of here!

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

Flames burst out from the Dragon King's left arm and clung to me. Immediately, I was enveloped by the red flames.

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

"Master!

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

Soleil's exclamation echoes. The Dragon King reacts to her voice.

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

"Hm? Are you... a Psyllus? And ... Unicorn Pegasus. You have some very unusual ones with you."

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

"Really? I don't think so, do you?"

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

I'm standing here completely unharmed. The Dragon King turns around when he hears my voice, his eyes wide open.

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

"You have survived my scorching heat..." he says. You are no mere warding master after all, are you?

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

No, I am a level 2 warding master. But you better not be too careful.

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

"Let him say it for a human being! Very well. It seems you want to suffer and die.

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

As he said this, the Dragon King became smaller and smaller. Then he disappeared.

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

"I see. So he was attacking in such a small size that you couldn't even see him. You've thought of that!"

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

I reapplied the same "soft warding" as before and prepared for the attack.

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

At that moment, my warding is shocked and cracked. One after another, my wards cracked. Just before my warding cracks, the attackers finally stop.

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

"Oh, really? I didn't think they could still break the warding even after all this.... Can you handle the divine warding after all? But that ward is no longer of any use, is it?"

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

Out of nowhere comes the voice of the Dragon King.

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

"I didn't think he would attack us by freezing the sticky part. The Dragon King is no joke after all.

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

To tell the truth, that attack was quite a rush. I increase the hardness of my warding again. This would not break the warding, but it would not damage the Dragon King either. I take out my "black sword" from the endless storage, while trying to catch my breath. I put the sword at my waist and assume the iai-nuki posture.

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

"I don't know what you're going to do, but if you give me back Shinjo quietly, I'll spare your life, won't I?"

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

"So, I told you, Fehri wanted to come to our house, didn't I? Are you an idiot? No, you're an idiot. I don't know why I can't understand what you're saying.

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

"Die!"

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

I close my eyes and use my presence and magic detection to search for the Dragon King's presence. I've got him! Just when I thought I had it, I drew my black sword. With a dull cracking sound, I felt the cut of something very hard. The Dragon King appeared in human form in the sky above us with a cry of "Goaaaaaah!

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

"How dare you! What if he gets hurt?

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

Hearing the Dragon King's words, I let out an involuntary laugh.
