Chapter 92: The Only Clue
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
「Female Knight, are there any clues for searching for them? If not, I’ll just head for the neighboring country Granard.」
「Yeah…」
Immediately after leaving Peryudōna, Doradora asked for the destination.
Ariante herself just received the report, so she doesn’t have any idea herself.
「But even if we look for them in the plains, we won’t find anything. The search team is already hunting for any clues there. There’s no big difference even if we go there. 」
「If so, should we go to the garrison where you stopped by before? The disappearing gold mountain is near there. 」
That is a reasonable suggestion. But there’s little hope there too.
If we take Rēvendia’s personality into account, he probably won’t be able to fool the garrison soldiers and kidnap the general’s daughter. He would have left for the capital peacefully.
The sudden disappearance of their footprints probably happened because something unexpected happened along the way.
Then, where we should search is not the destination, but the plains along the way.
「I wish I had the means to contact them in an emergency. 」
I clicked my tongue lightly.
I tried to limit my support so that the kin girl won’t suspect me, but I’m worried when something like this happens.
Even if it wouldn’t be a means of contacting them, I should at least sneak something into their luggage that would allow me to know their location.
「Hm? 」
That moment, Ariante thought about one thing.
A weapon in the shape of a black claw that Rēvendia showed at Seren.
「What’s the matter? 」
「It’s nothing, I just remember that Rēvendia was given a weapon by a local god around here. It was made with magic power, so the creator, the local god, may be able to track it’s whereabouts. 」
Since it is basically a weapon that is integrated in the claw, it should not be possible to drop them.
「I see. Then, it’s okay that I head towards the local god, right? 」
「That’s right. Can you do it？」
「No problem. 」
Doradora turned his wings. In the direction he is going, I can see the agricultural town Seren.
「Hey, Doradora. I’m just confirming, but the local god I’m talking about is not that town’s saint. 」
「……I know that. I’m just accustoming my wings a little. There’s no way I can make such a simple mistake. 」
「You. You really have a habit of distorting facts for your convenience. 」
Ariante sighed once.
「Anyway, fix that habit if you want to be stronger. It’s only by admitting one’s own faults that one can improve. You can’t grow stronger if you turn away from your weaknesses, you know? 」
「……Sorry. It’s embarrassing, but I misunderstood that the local god was that saint. I’m still not good enough. Now that I think about it, there’s no way that such an unreliable looking god could make a weapon……」
「That’s right. It’s easy to understand if you think about it for a moment. That’s great, with this I improved my judgement of you a little. 」
It must be just my imagination that I heard a sneezing sound from Seren below me.
Ariante recalls the story when Rēvendia showed his weapon.
「Certainly, he said that he met that god at an underground ruin that some bandits were hiding at. 」
「An underground ruin, that’s convenient. 」
Doradora showed a fearless smile, as if he suddenly got a lead.
「Do you know the place? 」
「Don’t know. But, if it’s something like an underground ruin, it will be easy to find. Wait a bit. 」
Doradora opened his mouth and began to shoot weakened breath in all directions on the ground.
「What are you doing? 」
「I’m the Proud Dragon of Fierce Winds. Manipulating the wind is the same as moving my hands. Exploring the terrain with the breath that echoes on the ground is as easy as twisting a baby’s hand for me……」
「Is that so. Anyway, there’s a fairly large hole over there in the plain, maybe that is the entrance? 」
「Fuh. Listen to me, female knight. The great wind has shown me the entrance—it’s right over there. 」
「I don’t think that has anything to do with the wind. 」
Ignoring Doradora, who insists that it’s all due to his credit, they landed in front of the ruins.
Well, it would have taken more time if we didn’t search from the sky, so it can be said that it’s his credit.
「Anyway, wait here. With your size, there’s no way you can enter—」
When Doradora turned around, Ariante reflexively pulled her sword.
A humanoid figure with black silhouette and a row of white teeth forming a smile. He started pulling a bow from a bush aimed toward Doradora.
「Get down！」
At the same time, perhaps because he has detected a killing intent, Doradora evaded out of the way. Then the black arrow is struck down by Ariante’s sword.
「Who are you, are you a demon!?」
「Mu? 」
In response to Ariante’s question, the black shadow tilted his head.
「This dragon, your pet? 」
「Yes, this guy is our town’s cute—」
「Wait, that’s absolutely wrong. I am a proud dragon. I’m not a weak being that is kept by humans. 」
Putsu~, an arrow stabbed between Doradora’s eyebrow. It’s an unstoppable shot.
「GUOOO! An arrow! There’s an arrow on my head! 」
「Wild dragon. No shortage of prey. Hunt. 」
「Hunt? Don’t tell me, you are this place’s Hunt God? 」
The rolling around Doradora is left alone. Unlike Rēvendia, he is a magnificent dragon. His wound will heal soon.
「That’s right. 」
「We are not your enemies. Rēvendia……a friend of the herbivorous lizard that you taught.」
The moment I said it, the arrow stuck between Doradora’s eyebrows disappeared like a fog.
Then the Hunt God came out.
「My bad. Thought that dragon is a prey. 」
「I don’t mind. Everybody makes mistakes. 」
「Hey you guys, don’t reconcile without me, the victim. 」
The dissatisfied Doradora walked up to me, but I ignored it.
Fortunately, when I flicked my sword, he read the air and closed his mouth.
「I will ask you straightforwardly. Hunt God, we are looking for Rēvendia’s whereabouts. Can you grasp Rēvendia’s location from the weapons that you gave him? 」
The Hunt God’s expression changed. His expression can only be seen from his white teeth that formed his mouth, but now the smile floating there has disappeared and it looked serious.
「That guy, bad situation right now. Trapped by demons. 」
