Chapter 21
At the Dragon Ranch
After hearing Shion’s advice, Ares headed to the Schwarzer clan’s Dragon Ranch on foot .
The dragon ranch started operating a few years ago .
When he got the chance to talk with everyone, Shion said
[If we have a dragon rider squad, it will greatly change the battlefield . ]
That’s what he said . He didn’t seem serious, and his tone was casual at best . The others, thinking that it’s impossible, also smiled .
However, Sigurd became motivated with this remark .
[Dragon Rider squad… . . doesn’t that sound exciting? It’s worth a try . ]
If Sigurd, the one who was raised by the Ancient Dragon said that it’s possible, then who wouldn’t go along?
Therefore, Ares decided to leave it to Sigurd .
Sigurd first prepared a pasture as the dragon’s breeding ground with his close friend Arnold, then tried to gather the dragons with the plan to use them as cavalry unit in mind .
Gathering the dragons was fairly easy .
By making use the Ancient Dragon’s「Intimidation」, they managed to capture several adolescent draconic creatures . The main aim is the red dragon salamanders and the winged dragon wyverns . However, both have rough temperament and totaled buildings when they go on a rampage . The problem of them attacking each other also born .
Even so, Sigurd marched on . Starting with Arnold, his subordinates, who were former gladiators began to raise complaints……but Sigurd ignored them all .
[If I can ride them, then anyone else also can . ]
That was Sigurd’s reasoning .
But Arnold and the others…
[Don’t compare someone who’s been raised by a dragon to regular people]
I wanted to say that . But Sigurd didn’t appear to be fazed . And so, Arnold and the others could only follow through .
But then……it seemed that their effort was worth it, as they became able to climb on the dragon’s back .
[Why do I, who was used to swinging a sword, have to act as a farmer and keep a ranch running?]
That was how Arnold, a former gladiator, later complained .

When Ares arrived at the Dragon Ranch, he immediately consulted to Arnold .
[Hi, Arnold . How are you doing?]
[Ah? Milord . Well, the dragons are doing fine… . . ]
There was a breaking sound in the distant .
[…… . I guess they are too healthy… . haha]
[Ah, I see . That’s good to hear . Then . Here is the main subject, is there a dragon that me and one other person could ride on?]
[Well… . . before that, what is Milord intending to do?]
[Ahh… . I wish to bring Sharon flying in the sky……]
[He? Milord, don’t tell me, that Milord is going to use the dragon on a date?]
[He? Milord, don’t tell me, that Milord is going to use the dragon on a date?]
Arnold returned the question with an incredulous face .
[No, I don’t plan to do that . But, there is… the usual thing that happened . ]
[Ah, atonement for your fight?]
Saying that, Arnold laughed, and pointed at two dragons .
[I think that Fire Dragon Salamander and that Winged Dragon Wyvern could be considered adults already and should be fine to be ridden . ]
Looking towards where he pointed at, there was a red dragon salamander and a blue winged dragon wyvern lined up quietly .
The fire dragon salamander is a fire-based draconic creature . It’s a magic beast characterized by its powerful fire breath . If it appears, usually this heinous creature cannot be put down unless one army division is deployed .
The winged dragon wyvern is a draconic creature that specializes in flight . They attack from the sky with their powerful claws . An army is also needed to take it down .
[Well, aside from the winged dragon wyvern, the red dragon salamander is definitely an adult already . ]
[Good gracious, it’s such a hard thing to do . But, the other dragons are gradually getting used to being ridden . Perhaps the dream of having a dragon rider squad is not so far off anymore?]
[Well, aside from the winged dragon wyvern, the red dragon salamander is definitely an adult already . ]
[Good gracious, it’s such a hard thing to do . But, the other dragons are gradually getting used to being ridden . Perhaps the dream of having a dragon rider squad is not so far off anymore?]
Arnold then laughed .
[I suppose Milord is satisfied with this? If the time allows, please bring Sharon-sama along next time . ]
