Manowa

Chapter 226 - Let"s Have a Parent and Child Reunion

With the final adjustment of the prosthetic arm finished, Kazane and the others arrived at the East Dragon Village the next day at noon .

There were no particular problems during the return journey, and they were immediately ushered in after they reached the Great Dragon Palace and were readily led deeper inside .

◎ G.o.d Dragon Emperor"s Throne Room

「Husbandー!!」

『Fatherー!!』

The 20 meter Crystal Dragon inside the room with Ao had the figures of a small dragon and Kazane clinging to and rubbing against his nose .

『Hmm . Have you been well, Kazane? And Tatsuo . 』

Naga seemed happy .

Beyond making his dream come true, Kazane had even saved his life, and her Grandfather Attribute gave her a further boost, so Naga had strong feelings of goodwill towards her . Ao thought the oldest dragon having his heart pierced by this Shorty and falling madly in love was perhaps something that couldn"t be helped .

And Kazane was simple, so she basically liked people who liked her . Younger brother and old fogey types were NG, however . By the way, the reason why younger brother types were NG was, of course, Naoki . Prince Sieg"s misfortune was the existence of the younger brother named Naoki .

After a not short amount of time, the continuing embrace settled down and Ao tried to start a discussion, but they got excited again when they talked about how Tatuso"s journey had gone, with Ao making suitable short responses many times . Two hours pa.s.sed, and Ao was tired out by the time they finally got down to business .

「Mountain hunting?」

They had already heard due to Yumika"s email, but Ao groaned when he heard the story again from Naga"s mouth . That was also the reason Kazane"s companions weren"t currently there .
Advertis.e.m.e.nt
『Mhm . After the mist barrier disappeared, the surrounding monsters started approaching the mountain . Well, since wild animals were always able to pa.s.s through, this has likely become a well-kept-secret place . 』

Thanks to the barrier, the area around Mt . Konron had become a treasury of wild animals, and with the barrier destroyed, monsters were gathering to aim for food . Wild animals were also the dragons" food, so as it was a food shortage problem would develop with the monster invasion .

「Yumika is currently hunting in the east sector, so the email said she"d return after about two hours . But there"s an Adventurers Guild even in the Konron Mountains . I was surprised when I heard that it was a proper request . 」

Kazane"s was sitting and nestling close to Naga as she spoke .

「Since an Adventurers Guild can be found in any city . It feels like that hasn"t changed since I came to this world . 」

Kazane responded「Heehーis that soー」after Ao spoke . There was also an Adventurers Guild in Zexiaharts, so that should mean it had continued for at least 1000 years . Rather, it was perhaps surprising that the organization hadn"t become obsolete by this era . As Kazane was thinking such things, Tatsuo called out from the side .

『Motherー . Mother is part of the Adventurers Guild, right?』

「Yeah, that"s right . Various things happened, but I"m still rank C, however . 」

Ao added more after Kazane"s words .

「Based on ability alone, Kazane-san would be rank A, but rank is more about achievements than ability . Basically, being allowed to take the promotion exam depends on the difficulty and number of quests completed . 」

『Would I be able to join like Mother?』

Tatuso suddenly tilted his head and asked Kazane, and Kazane also said「I wonder?」and looked at Ao . Ao wryly smiled at answering falling on him and replied「It"s possible . 」

「There"s no problem with racial differences . As long as you can communicate you should be able to register . The guild itself doesn’t require much identification . 」

After punctuating, Ao added「However . 」

「I think it would be best not to register before you can communicate directly with clients . Right now it would be difficult for Tatsuo-kun to accept and achieve requests by himself . 」

After being told that, Tatsuo cried kueee and his shoulders dropped . Kazane stroked his head and said「Let"s do it after you"ve grown up . 」

「If you could learn the Humanization technique, there would be no problems, though . 」

However, Humanization was a technique that was primarily learned after becoming an adult dragon . There were individuals who were able to learn it earlier, but the Humanization technique was different from a Transformation technique in the first place; the body"s current age would be reflected as it was after the transformation . So even if Tatsuo could use Humanization right now, he would turn into a baby .

(Well, with the time needed for Humanization, it"s another question if he would want to register with the Adventurers Guild by that time . )

Ao thought Tatsuo"s position would be well established by the time Tatsuo could learn the Humanization technique . Even at the earliest, that would be after a few decades .

『That"s right, Kazane . You ordered something in the city, didn"t you? It was completed, so they brought it here, and it was placed in your room . 』

Kazane tilted her head after Naga said that to her . Her question wasn"t about the ordered something, but her room .

「My room?」

『Mhm . You"re my empress, so this is also your house . A room was prepared for you, however . . . 』

Naga looked at Kazane anxiously after speaking that far . After seeing Kazane"s bewildered appearance, he was probably worried that he had done something unnecessary; perhaps it seemed like he was trying to forcibly detain her . However, Kazane smiled afterwards and said she would go and see it, and he made a relieved expression as he watched her be guided away by one of the outside bodyguard dragons . Tatsuo tilted his head and said『Father?』when he saw that, and Ao wryly smiled at the situation .

(My oh my . Nagsama, you"ve genuinely fallen for Kazane-san, haven"t you)

Ao was watching with a longing gaze at Naga"s reaction, which was just like a lover worrying about displeasing the older Onee-san he had just started dating .

(What kind of enviable story is this? Being dominated by a loli wife with a fully displayed childish personality, imploring with that kind of expression? Me, who was fully devoted to 2D lolis; me, who has already lived as a dragon for 800 years, to feel like this . . . as I thought, G.o.d Dragon Emperor Naga, it seems your capability is far beyond mine)

My leader isn"t capable of that… Ao felt so again . It seemed it was very difficult for a dragon leader"s abilities to be recognized . At least according to Ao"s standards .

◎ G.o.d Dragon Empress" Room

「So huge!?」

After being guided to her own room, Kazane entered and was astonished by the room that was clearly made to suit her dragon size . Although, of course, there was also s.p.a.ce suited for a human being .

『There"s a room over there for when you"re Humanized . 』

The escort dragon who guided her named Tolls pointed to the corner, which had furniture like an ordinary bed and dresser . In terms of area, it was the size of a normal room .

「So small! . . . . . No, it"s normal? Isn"t it normal!?」

While being strangely deeply moved, Kazane proceeded to that corner . There was a gauntlet-like item that could cover an arm up to the shoulder on the table next to the bed .

『It was delivered from Dragonewt City . Is it unmistakably what you requested?』

After the escort dragon"s words, Kazane said「Unmistakably」and nodded, then promptly started disa.s.sembling the gauntlet for confirmation . Although it was likely designed as requested, she was also concerned that the real thing might be different than she expected .

She ordered this gauntlet from the arms shop before leaving the village . It was made with a combination of Black Rock Dragon scales and Beared Dragon hair . While confirming the movements, she fitted it to the Muscle Clay prosthetic arm she had completed during the journey .

Beared Dragon hair was st.u.r.dy and repelled magic . That was knitted together in a highly elastic way and combined with Black Rock Dragon scales so that it could withstand the expansion of Muscle Clay . It would be meaningless if the gauntlet couldn"t cope properly during converted times, but it seemed it had been made as requested .

The gauntlet was finished after around an hour, and with it in hand, Kazane moved to the courtyard with her escort dragon Tolls . After doing trial runs for a while, another dragon came to inform her about Yumika and the others return . After that, Kazane fixed the disastrous scene before her with Golem Maker as if it had never happened and turned back toward the G.o.d Dragon Emperor Throne Room, but the escort dragon Tolls was dumbfounded by what had happened and was still staring .

『If human beings started making such things, even we would be in danger』 . . . while thinking so, Tolls obeyed his duty and returned to his escort mission .
