The 5000-year-old Herbivorous Dragon

A swarm of strange birds over the city vanished in an instant.

I tried to appease you, but if you missed your gaze a little, a humane monster bird is flying in as if it were infinitely gushing from another direction.

As far as Laeko's strength in slaughtering a large crowd in one blow is concerned, this weird bird is not a major threat. The anxiety element is that Laeko crashes with an overuse of magic that runs out of stamina like noon.

"Ureko. Think of the big moves and the silly pacing? If it gets hard, you can go downstairs and take a break. Yeah?

"But the people in the city are those who will eventually be under the command of the evil dragon. You can't leave the demons in the hoax to make more sacrifices. Save as many as I can - all in the way of the evil dragon's death."

"Lord, I don't know if you're kind or not."

Fly into the center of the city surrounded by circular walls.

The city's residents will also be relieved of the burden of interception if the birds are restrained by staring into the air.

Although it is Laeko who is judging me to fly.

I thought so, and a warrior in armor screamed as he commanded the battlefield under his eyes.

"Novice! Here comes the new monster! A dragon of terrible and disastrous magic! Yeah, don't be frightened, guys! Anyway, intercept with the greatest means of attack -!"

That magic, it's not mine, it's Leiko's.

You're having such a nasty aura that you're reputed to be disastrous or something, this kid. I could have predicted.

"Shoot!"

The warriors who stood on the walls unleashed a simultaneous attack.

A demon bullet of light, a vortex of flames, a slaughter of wind emitted from the sword, an arrow depicting a trajectory of transformative freedom, a spear that rips through the sky and flies.

The special blow unleashed by the warriors almost stunned me in half because of its intimidation alone.

Well, I've lived a long time, and I don't know if I'll ever remember - when I almost prayed,

Ooh, wow, wow, wow, wow!

On my back, Laeko roared.

I am not an extinct demon. Or it's no longer a human voice.

If I didn't know it was Laeko on my back, I would have mistaken him for "a dragon so strong and evil roaring up close".

Besides, it wasn't just a horrible voice.

The tremendous roar spread spherically with physical shock and, as if it had joined forces, it had perfectly dispelled all attacks that flown in.

"You werewolves. Do you take revenge on the evil dragon with some ultimate force?"

Laeko's voice echoes softly in the night sky.

No more. It is entirely the appearance of a villain.

"Hey, Laeko. Wait, wait, wait. Lord, haven't you forgotten what you just said? I'm not an evil dragon, I'm just a wasting dragon. So, the Lord is not a family member or anything, but a regular dragon warrior. Keep up the good work and fix the route."

"... yes, it was. I'm sorry, I don't. I understand, I will, I have. effort, I will."

It was like the ventriloquism of a shitty entertainer.

Though the assumptions are intense, he doesn't like to play something consciously.

"Wrong, gentlemen. I am a righteous exorcist with a very sober heart. This is a safe dragon that has nothing on it but is very adult and easy for people to miss. The city burned. I've come to help you all because it seems like a lot. I'm glad you're welcome."

Silence ruled the night.

Only the sound of the patsy and city buildings burning is as swallowing as the fire.

"... what do we do?

"No, honestly, it's so frigid, but you can't win a fight?

"The attack just now was scattered with a single roar."

"Even the trap. Just get on it."

"Huh. You can stab me in the back with your side. Yeah."

"Okay. Let's just deal with it as an ally for one second. I would never believe it."

"That's settled."

"- You seem to be talking to Hisohisso about things like that. Do you think it would mislead our ears with that much whisper"

I didn't hear anything, by the way.

"Okay! Welcome! Keep coming down slowly. The turret on the walls is just empty. Land there."

Commander responds. Raco's manipulative black wings drop the momentum of the wings and descend into space as they glide away.

As I descended into the space of the turret, I was greeted by the adventurers who had made me feel like a killer. I already wanted to go home.

"There will be something in each other's bellies. But at least I'm lucky you're not enemies here."

And there was only one person who was less murderous. Or maybe he's good at hiding it.

Commander-like armored warrior.

As I walked over here, I slipped the long broadsword I was gripping into my back sheath and removed my helmet. Then, the bright red long hair flows straight to the waist.

A woman.

I wonder how powerful it is to be among these fierce men and to be in command of women.

"It's called Alliante. Please fight with us to save this city."

Carefully removed her armor. She has asked Laeko to shake her hand.

He does not appear to come to me. It doesn't fit the size of my hand enough to grip it in the first place.

"Nice to meet you"

Reko offered his hand back while slightly out of sight against Alliante, a knight who had sought a dignified handshake. I know you're just behaving suspiciously, but you look suspicious instead.

"I'm Laeko. And this is my main great evil dragon... not an ordinary dragon."

"Lord, didn't you do it on purpose?

"There is no such thing as disobedience to the life of the evil dragon."

"Look, I'll call you Evil Dragon again."

"Lord Dragon. What's your name?

And I turned my eyes round, when the lid asked me from Ariante.

I don't have a name. Because my species has a small number of individuals instead of longevity, neither two nor three heads gather in one habitat, and naturally there is no need for a nomenclature that distinguishes individuals.

But there was a stray bullet from an unexpected direction.

from the adventurers behind them who cannot hide their temptations.

"Hey, those black scales with pale eyes... aren't those evil dragon Leavendia worshipped in the southern village?

"I've seen it in guild arrangements. Definitely."

"They flew in from that direction, too."

"You're lying. I can't believe the great monster who makes a double with that demon king woke up..."

Stunning. I had a big name on me.

I've never named Ravendia or anything.

When I heard that conversation, Leiko regained his energy like a fish that got water.

"Huh. Isn't your nose clever for humans? I can't help but be enlightened. It is precisely this way, Master Evil Dragon Leavendia. But be honored. Master Evil Dragon has no intention of harming you. The enemy of the moment is the reckless and foolish Demon King who tries to ravage the world as it should be ruled by the evil dragon."

"Will your lord also not observe in norinoli? Let's stick it more."

"Originally, the glory of the evil dragon is not something I can hide from my acting."

"Wow, I've been shifting the blame"

Alliante stiffens his expression,

"I didn't think so, but it still was. And yet - you're good at hiding magic. For a moment, I thought you were really just a big lizard."

"Do you fool the evil dragon?"

Leiko sharpened his eyes and set up a dagger of gems. But Alliante doesn't move.

"I know. I've already outgrown myself because of you who just became a family member. That's the only way to guess the power of the body."

Hmm? And I leaned my neck. Leiko asks as if to represent the question.

"How do you know I've just been made a family member"

"You'll see. Compared to the magnitude of power, the treatment of magic is not as if. It's horrible."

The fact that it has not been treated means that, in other words, there is still room to stretch.

More than anyone else here, there were no other warriors.

"But not if we're talking long stories right now. To hear the story of defeating the Demon King again later, we must first put out the fire in this city. Fortunately few injured, but if we stay like this, the city will burn down."

"Huh? Are you burning and not harming people?

"What is it, dragon, dissatisfied?

"No, no. I think it's a good thing. If you get hurt or die, it's tough."

"... that's something to say about swallowing"

Aliante coughed up just saying things were going crazy.

"Anyway, look at the city. He's the monster that ravages the city."

I stretched my neck and looked down at the city.

It was - the skeleton - that was destroying the city's buildings, setting fire to them, and doing everything possible to destroy them.

Even so, it is not just a human skeleton. White bones combine innumerably to show a free-flowing movement in the form of alien monsters and in a shape like a siege weapon.

Besides, that's not the whole thing, running around the city as much as it takes.

"At first it was just that human-bird raid. We had a good interception in the anti-aircraft attack, but when the birds' bodies accumulated, the bones came out of the bodies and began to move. Fortunately, if you fight, you're weak, but on top of the large number, you start to regroup and move no matter how crushed and finely fragmented you are. To be completely powerless, you have to burn down the prototype until it's gone, and you have to use a lot of means to dissolve it."

I see. It is a dirty two-sided operation common in demons.

Laeko stared at the sky,

"Like earlier, if I and Evil Dragon attack, I can erase those birds without even leaving a bone behind"

"That's right. I want to ask you guys for an empty one. If we run out of bone supply, we can go down the tunnel, but we can reduce the number."

I didn't like it. If I fly in the sky again, it's not like I know when I can get you off.

But if I don't take any action, I'm going to be certified as a demon and slapped.

"Laeko, this is a good workout opportunity. Just go, Lord. Can you fly?"

"Not to the evil dragon."

Bubba, and the black wings grew from Laeko's back. This kid says, "Can you do it? When I say," I feel like I'm going to do more or less. Other than acting.

Then we will destroy them.

"If you get tired, take a good break, okay? Why don't you sleep in the air?

Did you hear any caution at all? At such a speed that the remnants remained, Laeko rose to space and began to paint silver-light claw marks on the night sky.

And I remember.

I was surrounded by adventurers, and there was no escape anywhere. There is no existence that would protect me if Laeko were gone.

"It's Ravendia. Are you okay with just the daughter of your family?

Alliante stares sharply at us.

"It's not the mountains I want to help you with, but when I fight, the aftermath alone will destroy this city. You don't want that either."

A hasty quote, blew a generation of horas.

As a matter of fact, I don't think I can even break one private house by advancing with a whole body of spirits.

I try to distract the adventurers with utterly natural advice.

"Behold, I will rest here, and the LORD will find the neck to stop the bones as soon as possible. I can hardly find it in the mortal bird's corpse..."

"'Necromancer'? What are you talking about?

Because for some reason Alliante didn't seem to understand.

"What is this bone monster? - It's the main body of the head. See, the one that takes the shape of a human neck and manipulates the bones in its sight. We'll be moving all over the city, so I guess we'll roll somewhere high."

I think it was a fashionable means a little while back to cover up in a demonic corpse with a human face and send a head rolling in and attack down the city with an army of bones. I used to be fed by humans when the figure wasn't as big as it is now, but the city of the inhabitants who were feeding me was attacked down with that hand.

I remember "what a vile M.O." a lot because I was sad then.

"Everybody! You heard me! Disperse in the corpse of a strange bird and look for his head in an unnatural position!

The adventurers scattered like they were bounced.

Thoughts and, just a few seconds later, someone roared, and bones all over the city lost their tears and power.

"Ex-executives of the Demon King's Army. You're familiar with the abilities of demons. There was no such information in the literature of the Alliance."

Whether you're praising me or being sarcastic, I can't read Aliante's true intentions with a serious face.

I sweat inside wondering if my inadvertent remarks made me wonder. And think calmly and think back.

It was over 4,000 years ago because I was a little girl.

Well, there's nothing left in the literature.
