Scouting
“Can a human even use such magic?”
“I don’t know. …But what other explanation is there?”
“They say that old dragons use magic. That sounds more credible to me than assuming it was a human that dispelled the curse on the stake.”
“…Damn that dragon. If only we were able to sacrifice this continent with the Universal Purification Device, we would have been able to save mankind… Now, the only path left to us is to be annihilated by the Black Dragon of Destruction.”
Apparently, they were throwing out the idea that a human was involved.
However, there were dragons who could use magic?
Such a dragon would be very strong…but I didn’t want to die from a lack of energy, so there was no way I would try and tame one.
“I don’t know if we can even survive until the appearance of the Black Dragon of Destruction. At this point, we are probably doomed if just one Red Dragon Herald shows up.”
However…these guys were talking as if they were trying to save mankind.
But these were the people who unleashed a dragon onto a town and tried to kill everybody.
Well, it seemed like they had no future plans now. And they had no way to hurt me.
I could just kill them here… But they were still a valuable source of information, so I should probably keep them alive for a little while longer.
As long as the slimes were here, I could use ‘Area Freeze – Medium’ whenever I wanted to.
‘For now, it seems like the Blue Moon of Salvation isn’t going to do anything. How are things over there?’
I asked Baozard after the scouting was finished.
And then…the slimes answered happily.
‘Things are fine here!’
‘There is some tasty fruit!’
‘So much food!’
…I was trying to talk to Baozard.
But at least I knew the slimes were okay.
‘Fruit!? Is it sweet!?’
‘I want to go too! Yuji! Let’s go and eat!’
After hearing about this delicious fruit, the other slimes suddenly became very determined to go.
That being said… There was a possibility that a very dangerous dragon would return. We couldn’t be taking things so easy.
In any case, I wanted information about this ‘Red Dragon Herald’ that was supposed to appear very soon.
‘Baozard. Have you ever heard of the ‘Red Dragon Herald’?”
‘Of course, I have. That is one of the enemies that I must destroy.’
Apparently, Baozard knew of this dragon.
I hadn’t expected to learn something so quickly… Our alliance was proving to be beneficial already.
‘…Surely, that dragon is not going to appear soon?’
‘It is. At least, if the Blue Moon of Salvation is correct.’
‘I see. …And what will you do, Yuji?’
‘It depends on how strong it is. I’ll go and fight it if it’s not too strong.’
Baozard had said that the Red Dragon Herald was an enemy to be defeated.
Of course, I didn’t hold any personal grudge like that.
If there was any possibility that I would lose, I would rather not fight it at all.
‘Hmm… That is hard to say. I know that I cannot beat it alone, but I will have a chance if you help me.’
‘…So I’m guessing it’s not the kind of dragon that will go down after 1 or 2 hits of Hellfire of Death.’
‘Indeed. That being said…if the dragon really is going to appear, we have no choice but to fight it. Running to a different continent just means we would be prolonging our deaths a little.’
How ominous.
The stories about the Blue Dragon of Delight had been similar as well.
Maybe all of the dragons from myth were like that.
In that case, the way of dealing with them was probably similar as well.
The Blue Dragon of Delight wasn’t that strong when it first appeared.
‘So, we should target it as soon as it appears.’
‘…Did you come to that conclusion just now? You are certainly a wise Sage…’
‘No, it’s just that I fought a similar dragon before. …However, that would mean we’d have to find it immediately after it appears…’
I had been able to find the Blue Dragon of Delight quickly because I was lucky.
I couldn’t expect that to be the case next time.
Or so I thought…
‘I know where it will reappear. It is close to my territory.’
Apparently, the dragon would return near Baozard’s lands.
Maybe Baozard was living close to it deliberately.
‘Alright, then I’ll be heading over there. …Are there any inns in the area?’
‘Yes. There is a nearby town called Baozaria. You can stay there.’
‘Yay!’
‘Fruits!’
Upon hearing this, the slimes started shouting happily.
Everything had gone just the way that they wanted.
