Chapter 205 \nChapter 205 â Heave-ho!\n
Benzel's dragon mount Raiel may have been the first to notice.Â
Raiel didn't participate in the Dragon Bear subjugation battle. It certainly would have been advantageous for the dragon Raiel to participate. But Benzel chose a more reliable path. In the end, Raiel immediately went to Mt. Konron to ask for rescue from the East Dragon Village. Kazane and the others flourished beyond what he had expected, so the dragon rescue wasn't in time in a good way, and the Dragon Bear subjugation was completed. Speaking of Raiel, he was exhausted due to flying to Mt. Konron at full speed and had collapsed at that time. Half a day passed after that before Raiel awoke.Â
The first thing Raiel checked after waking up was his master Benzel's presence or absence. Unfortunately, Benzel didn't seem to be nearby, but Raiel could understand due to the soul connection of the Dragon Knight contract that he was in a place a short distance away. And he was slightly concerned about Benzel's soul waves being a little quiet, but he concluded that Benzel was probably tired and didn't think about it too deeply.
It seemed like Benzel was headed toward the northern seal shrine. That was where one of the village's guardians, Northern Black Season Gen, lived. Raiel immediately took off to meet Benzel.Â
Raiel would later be discovered with a tragic appearance. But based on the result, Raiel's action may not have been a mistake. After all, Raiel's soul was certainly able to reach his master's side.
â East Dragon Village Zegan, Dragonewt City
After leaving the Great Dragon Palace and descending down Mt. Konron to fully enjoy themselves in the hot spring, Kazane and the others entered Dragonewt City, a city halfway down the mountain where the Dragonoids lived.
There were also places people could stay in the Great Dragon Palace, but they were very simple rooms, so people with a certain level of social status would be guided to this city.
Dragonewt City was a city with lined up Chinese-style buildings, and Kazane had the impression that it was flourishing beyond what she had expected. It seemed that Dragonoids didn't look very different from humans. Appearances like the Dragonoidized Yumika only happened when Dragonoids had considerably thick dragon blood, and this was a city of people with thin blood. Although that wasn't particularly a problem to Kazane.
The palanquin Kazane was riding was shaking.
Heave-ho! Heave-ho! Heave-ho! Heave-ho!
(âŚThey're merrymaking too much)\n
Kazane was astounded and was looking down while covering her face with both hands. She was conspicuous. She was abnormally conspicuous.
ăLook! Our God Dragon Empress is so deeply moved she's choked with tears!ă
ăShe expressly Humanized and came down before us Dragonoids! More, make her even more joyful!ă
Along with the shouts of the surrounding men, firecrackers of various luminescent colors were fired, and people with red-lined monkey and dragon masks were dancing madly.Â
Why did it become like this⌠that was what Kazane was thinking.Â
Apparently, the marriage with Naga was transmitted to the Dragonoid city more quickly than expected.
And according to what she had heard from Louise, it seemed the Dragonoids had abnormally strong faith in dragons. Not to mention that Naga, who could be considered a supreme deity to them, had a wife for the first time: Kazane.Â
By the way, to summarize what Kazane heard from the surroundings: Kazane was apparently a dragon princess who came from a foreign land, and as she was now their empress, she had come down to make an appearance before the Dragonoids and had expressly used the Humanization technique to interact with them. Was that so, I didn't know⌠Kazane was amazed by the new facts about her she didn't even know herself.
Her companions were riding in a carriage behind her, and since it seemed like Naoki would be troublesome in various ways, they had left him at the Great Dragon Palace. Jinrai said he would chaperone and persuade him, so they had no choice but to believe in him. And Benzel was apparently already familiar with the city, so it seemed he went to Raiel alone.
ăBut isn't this too big an uproar?ă
Kazane asked Byaku, who was riding the palanquin beside her.
ăIs that so? It's always like this⌠no, there certainly might be more people than usual. Well, it isn't a big difference?ă
It seemed this was as usual for Byaku.
After coming here, Kazane realized she had been mistaken about various things. Among the dragons, her marriage certainly possessed the meaning of being for form's sake, and that recognition would be sufficient for those who only lived among them. But Kazane lived in a different society than the dragons. She finally realized that she should have thought about it more.
(Ahăźjeez, what do I do?)
Kazane was perplexed while in the middle of great admiration.Â
But Kazane and the others would be perplexed by a completely different thing immediately after that.
It occurred in a place above their line of sight.
â Great Dragon Palace, Guest Room
ăThat is to say, Aneki was being pressed by the king of Tsuvara and the prince of Minshiana!?ă \nWhile Kazane was perplexed in the middle of the Heave-ho! revelry, Naoki, who had been left behind at the Great Dragon Palace, was stunned by Jinrai's words. That was because Jinrai finally revealed Kazane's marriage proposal stories, which had been concealed from Naoki.
Jinrai's Old Man Battle Maniac part gave the strongest impression, but the truth was that he was fairly eloquent, and he was considerably smart. His unique two spear style was born from him thinking thoroughly over how to overcome his lack of talent, and in the first place, it was largely thanks to his intellect that Jinrai with human specs was able to surpass monsters.
And Jinrai was trying to use reason to persuade Naoki, who was in a frenzy from the marriage. Namely, he was highlighting the mercenary part that Kazane decided to stop considering: the possibility of rejecting marriage proposals from royalty.
ăMhm. The king of Tsuvara is famous for his lechery. You should already know how he surrounded himself with mistresses to the point that his wife finally ran away.ă
Naoki also knew that Tiara's mother was in Hyvern. Naoki was grinding his teeth as he thought of the king of Tsuvara he hadn't seen yet. He never thought his sister would be seen by such a man with sexual eyes. Seeing my sister with such sexual eyes, such an erotic⌠he could only repeatedly think such things. Pure anger was dominating Naoki.
ăAlso, the prince of Minshiana possesses maturity unsuited to his age, and when he and Kazane kiâŚâŚă
ăNo, anyway, he started aiming for Kazane.ă
He and Kazane kissed⌠Jinrai thought he should drop that subject. He sensed it was a dangerous line to cross. That was the crisis sensing ability only a first-class warrior possessed.
ăBut Aneki didn't consult with me. That's too distant!ă
The clever Jinrai instantly drew conclusions that could answer Naoki's grumble. Probably because you'd make a fuss. Probably because you'd be tiresome. Probably because you'd rage. Probably because you'd be annoying. Probably because you're gross. Plenty of certain answers came to the keen Jinrai's mind. And after carefully examining them, Jinrai put together the appropriate words.Â
ăHmm. She probably didn't want to make you worry.ă
Marvelous. It was the perfect answer. Naoki saidăIs that so?ăand nodded. He completely believed it.
ăYeah, Aneki and that dragon's marriage is merely for form's sake, and me and⌠no, it's completely unrelated to marriage between people.ă
ăHmm. Well, if you understand then that's sufficient.ă
Jinrai knew he was obviously about to say something else, but that was good enough for the time being. After all, Jinrai was tired of talking to Naoki about Kazane. Honestly, he wanted it to end already.Â
ăThen, if you've calmed down, should we also go to the hot springs?ă
ăOk. I want to immediately catch up with Aneki.ă
Jinrai bitterly smiled after those words. Jinrai also had an older sister, and while their relationship wasn't particularly bad, it wasn't particularly good either. He thought she was still alive, but they hadn't met in the last few decades. Although there were wicked feelings as well, he smiled at the difference between them as he saw a younger brother adoring his older sister to that extent.
(Returning to the village after a long while might not be a bad idea)
They had plans to go to Elsta Floating Kingdom before they returned to Minshiana. Jinrai thought they might be able to do it then, and he decided to consult with Kazane.\n\năI came to take Hagasu's heart?ă
