Part 5
From Rember’s story, it’s not like I’m going to meet them directly, so I think it’s okay since it just involves escorting them from a relatively isolated place.
As for why I came to the vicinity of the Rox kingdom, it’s to gather the ingredients to create a goddess.
I recalled the conversation I had with Modes before I come to this place.
「I need a dragon horn. Moreover, we can’t make a goddess unless the horn is from a dragon king」
Modes told me that when I asked for my compensation.
Surely, it’s not like I will receive my compensation in an instant.
But, it seems that special ingredients are needed to create a goddess, and it seems that we can’t make a goddess unless we use those ingredients.
I was told that a dragon, hailed as the holy dragon king of silver, is living in the vicinities of this the Rox kingdom, and we definitely can make a goddess by using that dragon king’s horn. By the way, it seems that Mona is made by using the horn of the dragon king that was hailed as the demon dragon king of lustrous black. Maybe that’s the reason for Mona’s beautiful black-colored hair that’s different from Rena.
Nevertheless, the matter of acquiring the horn of a dragon king is a highly difficult subject, right?
When I researched about it, the dragons hailed as dragon kings are considered terribly strong. I don’t think that acquiring the dragon horn will be an easy matter for me.
It is as if I’ve completely become an errand child for Modes.
Or else, it’s maybe because he judged that it’ll be an easy matter for the powerful me.
Moreover, I didn’t want to hurt a dragon just for my own desire.
It’ll make me remember Glorious.
Thus, I rode on Glorious all the way till this the Rox kingdom. Though I heard that the people without permission will be chased around by the holy knights of Elios, those holy knights were already annihilated by me.
To be honest, I’m reflecting on my actions that went overboard. That evening, I lost my temper, so I just crushed everyone who came toward me without thinking much about it. Before I noticed, it seems that I had already annihilated the holy knights. On hearing about their annihilation, I still wonder how much damage I caused to them. I can’t confirm it even now.
Well, since there are no holy knights, it’s mean that I can ride on Glorious.
Compared to Nargol, the majority of the expanse of the skies of this world is beautiful with a perfectly clear blue sky like the one from my world.
In that matter, riding on the back of a dragon while flying under the blue sky was truly wonderful expression.
Though I can fly with flight magic, flying on the back of a dragon feels much better.
I definitely won’t be able to forgive anyone who wants to take the horn of Glorious, since he made me feel the wonder of flying under the sky.
That’s why I couldn’t get excited with the matter of killing off the dragon king who’s similar to Glorious.
Moreover, the reason why I came to this place is because I have nothing to do.
I thought it’s better to have something to do than nothing; thus, I traveled on Glorious all the way till here. By the way, Nut isn’t with me right now.
I first arrived at a certain tower in the forest, since I can’t enter the city with Glorious in tow.
It seems it is an abandoned tower with no life. The hollow on top of the tower is the most suitable place to hide Glorious.
I came to see the situation a while ago, but it seems that Glorious liked that place.
According to Ruugas, it seems that dragons will eat when it’s the time to eat and eat nothing when it isn’t the time. It seems that Glorious is currently not in eating mode.
I immerse myself till my shoulders while thinking about those things.
Currently, I’m inside the public hot spring in the Rox kingdom.
The other guests are also bathing along with me.
Though I’m still reluctant about the matter of acquiring the horn, I’m extremely grateful for the existence of this hot spring. I think it’s worthwhile to come to this place just for this alone.
The hot spring established by the Rox kingdom wasn’t built in an elaborate manner; it just contained a rock bath.
There’s a liquid foam made from the oil of a certain plant, and they even have sauna-like rooms – complete with the equipment. While immersing myself in the hot spring, I recall about Japan.
Not even one month has passed since then, but I’m already feeling homesick.
I wonder if everyone is alright?
Can we go back safely?
