164-Seems to like dragons





"...nah, I see. So, you're saying that you're going to do this? In exchange for handing over the baby dragon to Mr. Miyama, Ryu, Ryu, the Dragon King will make a contract with us and send his men to us.
Yes, sir.
I'm sorry. It's just that my head refuses to understand.

 When I returned from the demon world and explained the situation, Gosha-san muttered in obvious confusion.

''.........Miama-san, are you acquainted with the Dragon King-sama?''
Yeah, yeah, well.

 .........It's not just Magnawell-san, but I know what would happen to Gosha-san if I said that, I know from Lilia-san's reaction in the past.
 Seeing me nod, Gosha-san is stunned for a while and then slowly opens her mouth.

''........That is, of course, grateful.
Is that so?
Yes, the Dragon King is like a god to those who belong to the peddling and flying dragon industry. I have one, and many merchants carry around a dragon decoration with a dragon as a good luck charm.

 Apparently, Mr. Magnawell has received many demonic gifts and created the foundation of the flying dragon flights, and has gained immense faith as a god of commerce.
 It seems that having a direct connection with such a Magnawell-san is a promise of success for business people, and they want a pipe so badly they can't wait to get their hands on it.

'If it's all right with you he said he would send a messenger in the near future.
''Yes, I understand. Then, once that contract is signed, I promise to give the baby dragon to Miyama-san.
Thank you.
Cui!

 Incidentally, it seems that Goka-san is also the person in charge of this flying dragon flight, so she also has the right to make decisions.
 Therefore, if Goka-san agrees to it, it can be said that the decision to take over the baby dragon is made once the contract with Magnawell-san is completed.

 And that's what the little dragon understands, or maybe it's me who looks happy to look up.

''Yeah. With this, I can take you with me the next time I come,''
Cui! Squeak.
"Ha-ha, that tickles.

 The little dragon looks really happy and rubs its face against my cheek and spoils me.
 I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make the most out of the situation.

















''Well........that's why.......''
''.........Haha, just when you think you've encountered all the supreme gods to the Sixth King, you start reaching for the demons this time.......''

 In front of me, who explained what happened, Lilia-san lets out a sigh with a dumbfounded look.
 I was prepared to be angry, and I was going to ask for a sincere request, but.......she doesn't seem as angry as I thought she would be.

'If it's as big as Belle, but if it's only a baby dragon, it's not like we need a new hut. Besides, Kite-san seems to be taking good care of Belle, so there will be no problem. You can keep it.
'What? No, but if anything, Zeke's taking care of Belle...
'No, I'm only allowed to play with Belle. It's mostly Kite who does most of the feeding and brushing...

 I was grateful to Lilia-san for easily agreeing to keep a baby dragon, but since Zeke-san is largely responsible for taking care of Belle, I was somewhat apologetic as I returned the words, but Zeke-san interrupted me there.

'No, Zeke-san taught me a lot of things and I'm only helping, but Zeke-san is the one who takes the lead.
'No, I'm just advising and helping. It's Kite who's doing the walking and...
But I think it's safe to say that you're quite similar to each other.

 As I'm having a conversation with Zeke-san that could be described as parallel, Lilia-san mutters again with a dumbfounded expression.
 With those words, the conversation is interrupted once, but soon Sieg-san turns to me with sparkling eyes.

''But what a baby dragon after Belle-chan........I'm happy. The white dragon's scales are as beautiful as pearls, and I think her dull eyes are also very pretty! Oh, speaking of which, what's the name of your baby dragon?
I heard her name is Lindblum, so we'll call her Lynn.
'Linn-chan.......that's a lovely name. To have a girl like that............Kite, it's wonderful!

 Animal-loving Zeke-san's tension seems to be very high already, and he's somewhat excitedly looking forward to the arrival of the little dragon.......Lin.
 I'm sure he must have seen her when we went to the Treasure Festival before, but at that time, he seemed to be concerned about us, the first time he rode a flying dragon, and was desperately holding back.

''........Zeke, don't bring him into the room.
"...what? Bell-chan put up with it....
'No! I mean, you're probably still sleeping in Bell's cabin with a pillow every now and then...
"...Belle, you're so bushy and pretty, aren't you?
Well that's not the point, is it?

 Apparently Mr. Zeke's love of animals is hardcore, and although I didn't know it, he had slept in Bell's cabin a few times.
 It's true that Belle's fur is full and she hasn't been brushed, so she's very comfortable to the touch... but Mr. Zeke... he was trying to take her to his room! Bell, it's almost five meters in size.

You can't speak for other people either, can you, Miss?
'What? What are you talking about? Luna.....
You've admitted to keeping him this time, didn't you, in a very desperate bid to keep him?
''Yeah, yeah, that's because... the baby dragon is small, unlike Belle...''

 Huh?  Lilia-san, you're the kind of person who can't lie.......

 Well, but if you ask me, he admitted it very quickly this time, and I feel a little uncomfortable about it.
 In fact, until I started talking to him, I was prepared for a complaint or scolding or two, but....

'Oh, by the way, Lili...'
Zeke!
'What? What do you mean by that?

 For some reason, Zeke seemed to agree with me and clasped his hands together, and I, alone and unsure of why, nodded my head.
 Then Lunamaria-san turned to me and gave me an answer to that question.

''.................The young lady likes dragons.
Luna?
'What? Is that so?
It's just that he wanted to ride the flying dragon.
....

 I wonder if Lunamaria-san's words were right on the money, Lilia-san averted her gaze in the direction of the day after tomorrow.
 I've been to the Treasure Festival, I still didn't know much about transference magic, but it's true that if you can use transference magic, it's certainly faster to use it.

 And the reason why he admitted to keeping Assari this time so desperately is because Lynn is a dragon... or perhaps the reason he warned Sieg-san not to bring her into the room... could it be that he was the one who brought her into the room... Maybe it's because I want him to be there.

'....because........dragons......aren't they cool.......

 While turning away, Lilia-san murmured with her cheeks slightly tinted...........................It's so cute. Maybe it's because she's usually so calm in many places, but this kind of gap.......calm? No, not really...

Mr. Kite?
'No, no, it's nothing!

 He glances at me as if he could see through my heart and I straighten my back in a hurry.
 And Lunamaria-san doesn't seem to care about that at all, she turns to Lilia-san and opens her mouth.

''The young lady doesn't concede by saying that it's the Dragon King-sama who has the best appearance of the Six Kings and the best appearance. That's the only part I don't agree with.
''The majestic appearance of the Dragon King is the best thing, of course!
No, the beauty of the Dark Lord is no match for it!
...why are you starting to fight...

 For some reason, a debate breaks out between Lilia and Luna Maria about who is the best looking of the six kings, and they both begin to talk passionately about the six kings they each recommend.
 Lilia seems to really like dragons and talks about how dignified Mr. Magnawell is.
 

 Also, if I had to say something else, in my opinion, Luna Maria-san's side..........Black is the best, but that would only add fuel to the fire, so I'll keep it quiet.


Yeah? What is it, Mr. Zeke?
I'll take good care of her, so please bring me more demons. I'd like to have a fanny rabbit or something.
....

 And Mr. Zeke was Mr. Zeke, and he looked the same as ever. His sparkling eyes were so pretty that I almost reflexively said yes, but I managed to swallow it.

 Dear Mother and Father - the conversation went well, and they agreed to give me Lindblum, the baby dragon, and Lilia-san agreed to keep him. And I didn't know it until now, but Lilia-san - I heard that she likes dragons.
