104-Episode 104: Silver Dread, Golden Wit

What happened!

Before I knew it, I was flying through the air.

I'd come here to tear the human who humiliated Gold's to pieces, and yet Gold showed no desire to do what he wanted with the human.

I couldn't stand the sight of him, so I attacked the human who had caused it.

A human being is not going to ride on the belly of a dragon, it's too presumptuous!

My claws will swing down to tear the humans apart.

My claws will swing down, tearing the mortal into pieces, but I will let them be collateral damage as punishment for their corruption.

There's nothing to worry about.

If I get a scar that prevents us from mating, I will take it from you.

So don't worry if you get hurt.

I will even prepare the food for you until you are healed.

My hopeful vision of the future, which I had been drawing, is reversed.

What happened?

And the next thing I knew, I was slammed to the ground.

At first I thought that the golden one had played off my attack.

But no, it was not.

The golden one looked as unwilling as ever, and the human from earlier was standing on top of it, looking unconcerned.

''Don't tell me that this human threw me to the ground!

Oh, no way!　It's not possible for a human to throw a dragon!

I think there's been a mistake!

I stood up and let out an inspirational yell, and this time I jumped to tear that human into pieces.

And this time I could clearly see that I was being thrown.

No, was I really being thrown?

His own body keeps spinning and blowing away.

What is really happening?

I was confused by the sensation of my head being repeatedly thrown around.

When I finally came to my senses, I couldn't stand the sight of my own abomination.

You human!　I will not allow you to cause me this much embarrassment in front of the gold!

I stop holding back and attack them with the intention of turning them into pieces of meat.

There's a new human being on the scene, but I don't care what he or she does, he or she will turn me into a piece of meat!

I smashed the newly emerged human with my right claw, and without pause, I smashed my left claw at the hated human.

But when the human avoided my attack, it leapt to escape.

Hmph, you dodged it out of fear of a serious attack.

But it's too late!

The humans desperately avoid my attacks.

Every time that happens, the human from earlier appears in front of me a little bit, but I don't care, I blow it up and cut it to pieces and continue attacking the human.

.........hmm?　Does something seem wrong to you?

Why do the people who were supposed to be blown up or torn apart just now keep appearing in front of us?

I'm supposed to be the one who attacks you, not the one who tries to turn you into a piece of meat.

The fact is that I have been repeating similar exchanges dozens of times while thinking about it, but this exchange is starting to get annoying.

I don't know why, but it seems that the humans have the ability to withstand our attacks.

But that's all they can do.

The human attack that threw me off my feet earlier could not cause me to suffer a fatal wound.

Then, I should make them unable to detect my attack.

Having taken my distance from the human, I released a breath without performing a tame.

Of course, I don't expect to be able to defeat them with this.

It's a distraction breath.

I don't understand, but these humans are somehow different from those I've fought before.

I swipe my claws at the moment the human loses sight of me with the breath.

This is the end.

In fact, you've persisted this far.

As an enemy, I'll admit it.

I can feel the tips of my claws touching the human.

I thought it was over.

I thought it was settled.

But in that moment I felt the sensation of spinning in the air that I had just experienced again.

The next thing I knew, I was hitting the ground again.

I don't know what happened.

But I can see the humans I can see in front of me, and they are happy to see me.

As the hateful human points at me, the other human who threw me over looked at me.

With a horrible smile in its tiny eyes....

A shiver runs down my spine, a sensation I've never felt before.

Yes, now that I think about it, it was the first feeling of fear that I had experienced in my life as a dragon.

I didn't even know the name of my own emotions, but I was unconsciously emitting those emotions to the outside world.

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

You're not going to be able to do that.

The silver one screamed.

It looks like he finally understands the horror of these humans.

The silver one is blown away.

It is blown away while spinning around.

''No, stop!''

The silver one begs for forgiveness.

'Please!　This is unreasonable!

But alas.

They don't understand our language.

"Ta-help!

The silver one begs us for help, but no one is going to help us.

They know that if they go, they will get caught in the middle.

The people who were attacking the humans just now with the silver one have already stopped attacking and taken refuge in the sky.

Yes, there is no one to help you.

Honestly, I'm not going to help you or M-U-R-I.

".........?

He must have understood that no one would help him.

The silver eyes are tinted with despair.

And so, how long did the silver ones get thrown off?

Was it only for a few moments, or would it have been thrown for days on end?

But such a horrible time came to an end when the human who was throwing the silver one showed fatigue.

Hmm, humans get tired too, right?

I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this as well.

Oh, I see... when you've healed your wounds, you'll resume throwing.

Right, we're all going to resume our watch.

((((Yes! )))

My compatriots respond with their eyes.

I see, this is what hell is all about.

"Death, death... this time we die...

It's okay. They're not going to kill you in any way.

I never thought it would be so horrible to keep you alive without killing you, though.

And after being tossed around for an even longer time, the silver one was finally freed when the sun was about to set on the mountain.

I'm glad I'm alive, silvery.

But this time my fellow humans who had been taking a break came forward.

It seems that these humans will be the next to throw the silver one.

Silver's mournful cry echoed through our territory.

...it's no use, let's send a ship for help.

I got up and stood between the humans and silver.

"Oh, the gold?

The silver one stares at me with astonished eyes.

The other compatriots around me are also buzzing about the daredevil act of appearing in front of these humans.

To be honest, my heart is beating fast.

The humans are baffled by my sudden action.

I'm not sure what the rest of them are planning to do.

Well, I'll tell you.

No, I'll tell you why.

Goron.

I rolled onto my back and showed him my belly.

Yeah, now that's what I call total surrender!

There will be no rebellion!

I'm not resisting!

"...what?　Wait, what?　The gold?

Oh, shut up and watch, silver. This is how I take responsibility.

The humans began to discuss something with me, who once again showed a posture of total surrender.

And I guess the consultation was over.

The humans' will to fight was gone.

Yes, I was right.

If they didn't show hostility, these humans wouldn't attack us aggressively.

Thank you very much for not attacking us.

The golden....

"See, silver? You see why I did not want you to fight my people.

Ugh....

The silver one grunted as he realized what the humans were capable of.

'Now, what about you?'

I will not force you to do anything.

From now on, it will be the Dragon King's decision to make.

"....

The silver one was in thought for a while, but in the end, he decided to get up his wobbly body and went in front of the humans.

And then, when the body was down, he held out his horn to the humans.

"O mortal, I offer you my horn.

Offering horns.

It is a ceremony in which a dragon takes an oath to follow another species.

It is the declaration of a warrior in the service of the strong man who has sent him down.

He knew the meaning of the horn offering.

The human who had just thrown off the silver reacts.

Then he reluctantly took out a thin claw and shaved off the silver horn.

The ritual is now complete. I will obey you.

The silvery declaration drew a groan from the brethren.

''Mm,'' he said, ''in the last few hundred years, no one has ever given their horns to another race.

''They say that once we had a contest of strength with the humans, and we carried on our backs those who recognized our power.

He croons a tale of the ancient times when there were once jewels.

'Gold, you protected the silver one from those humans by recreating that era.

I wasn't thinking that deeply, though.

You're the gold one! I thought it was all just a plan to get a treaty of no war with those horrible people!

No, I don't really think that's what we're doing.

Man and dragon holding hands. Who knew such a time would come again?

A new era of dragons and men....

No, you guys dress it up, but that's not the same as the fact that you left the silver one behind with me earlier.

I'm sure you're just afraid of what's to come, right?

Well, I've been following the silver one, so don't worry about that.

Hahahahahaha!

It's another story that the silver one came to bake my care for some reason after that.
