By the way, suicides are not included in the death toll.

Is that so?

　Apparently suicide is a no-no.

　So if you do, does that mean someone has to kill you or you have to die of disease or life expectancy?

　Maybe asking someone to 'kill me' would be suicide?

　It may be quite challenging.


Also, reincarnation does not mean going through the six roads in order. What you reincarnate into after you die is random.

　La, random?
　You mean that not only the human race can be reincarnated?

Excuse me my dear Ancestor Dragon, I'm sorry. I don't know much about reincarnation or the Six Paths.

''Originally, reincarnation was transmitted to us by Haruka, a person from your world. To begin with, there is no such thing as the Six Dao in our world.

　So reincarnation and the Six Paths are about the world I was with?

　Ah. Come to think of it, I've seen a trailer for a movie where the main character repeatedly reincarnates in an attempt to escape from reincarnation.

"There are no Six Paths in this world, but an evil god who thought it was interesting to hear that story somehow imitated it and created 'The Curse of Reincarnation'.

　The Six Paths are said to be the six "worlds of the lost": hell, brat, d*mnation, shura, human, and heaven.

　The real reincarnation is to aim at getting out of samsara by going around the six paths. By the way, you can only get out of samsara when you are on the human path.

The curse that was placed on you will allow you to return to your original place, original time and original body if you die six times without committing suicide. So far so good?

Yes, sir. I'm fine!　By the way, asking someone to kill you is....

'That's probably not a problem. It's only that the death of one person's actions directly caused by their own alone doesn't count.

''I see. Oh, how do I know how many times I have to die left?

　You have to make sure that you die every time you die without problems.

　Dying many times for nothing is hard, indeed.

You can find the rest of the times on the status board.

　It's in there!

S-open status!

　See the status board.


　Status: cursed (reincarnation: six remaining)


Really?

　It was really on there.

　By the way, all of the items except for 'State' were garbled and could not be read.

''The blue dragon's body, which now contains your consciousness, was forcibly created by a curse.

　They are essentially non-existent individuals.

　That's why most of the items on the status board are said to be strange.

'I was also in a very high state of mind when I thought that a colored dragon had been born for the first time in thousands of years, but...'

　Ten thousand years ago at this time, the dragon population was still very small.

　I feel sorry for them.

''Oh. I'm not blaming you for anything. The only ones to blame are the evil gods.

That's very kind of you to say.

What? You're a victim, too. It must be hard for a human being to experience death so many times.

　I know, right?
　It's traumatic even once.

　Like having to die six times........

　If I could return to my original body, wouldn't it be okay to put the power of seven times and hit the evil gods?


　Okay, I'll do it.

　I've made up my mind.

''Master Ancestor Dragon. Thank you for teaching me so much.

This is all right. You're not going to get to tell my children in the future about this, right?

　Well, what is the offspring?
　I'm very curious....

Well, I have a desire to help you. Don't hesitate to rely on me.

　I'm curious as to why you're helping me, but it's reassuring to know that I can rely on Ancestral Dragon-sama, who knows everything.

''There will come a time in your several incarnations when you will need my magic power. If you want to come to me, lay your hands on the earth and call to me.

　If I did so, Ancestral Dragon said that he would transfer me to this place (the demon world).

　By the way, the magic power that you lend me at that time will be the magic power that was taken away the last time I met the Ancestor Dragon.

''I understand. At that time, I'd like to take care of you.

"Mm.

And I'm sorry to be the one to tell you this, but...

　I hate to ask you to do this, though.

Yeah. I know.

　Even though my body was forcibly created by a curse, I am now one of the strongest colored dragons in this world.

　It is not poisonous and does not get sick.
　I have a life span of over a thousand years.

　In order for me to die like that, I have no choice but to ask the Ancestral Dragon to cooperate with me.

''Then let's all go at once, shall we?

Yes.

　Master Ancestral Dragon holds a huge claw above my head.


　Scary.........

　I haven't been damaged since I became a status "fixed".

　The fear of death that I haven't felt in a long time.


''Hang in there, Halt.

　Master Ancestral Dragon's claws were swung down.
