Act 3: Chapter 14: Dogma of Fire Dragon

「You guys are adventurer, right? Which rank are you?」

As we guided the three knights, Bennett asked us.

「We’re C-rank adventurer.」

When I replied so, Bennett exchanged grin with one-eyed man.

「Hah, C-rank with that look eh. Well, Manarak is no good after all.」

「Kanata-san... Shall we unleash Philia-chan on them?」

This time, Pomera whispered to me with a sulking look on her face.

「Just ignore what they say, please just ignore it.」The original appearance of this chapter can be found at Ñøv€lß1n.

We walked for a while after that till we could see the adventurer guild building.

「Ah, that’s the building eh?」 Said Bennett as he raised his face upon seeing the building.

「Okay, this is enough.」

Bennet spoke as he shooed us away with a gesture of his hand.

... Honestly, I didn’t care about it but, I really wish that we could finish this without any trouble along the way.

At that moment, a man with shabby attire ran in our direction, and about to collide with the one-eyed knight.

The one-eyed knight raised his sword’s sheath immediately and throw that man on the ground.

The man fell right there.

「You’ve got some nerve for running toward me. What makes you run in a hurry like that?」

The one-eyed knight then pressed the back of the fallen man with the tip of his sword.

Seeing that spectacle, I heaved a sigh since they still ended up causing a ruckus.

At that moment, a woman came closer, and suddenly lunged toward a one-eyed knight with a knife in her hands.

Seeing that, even I had no idea what was happening now.

The one-eyed knight groaned and flicked off the knife in the woman’s hand with the sheath of his sword.

Suddenly, a scream resounded in the city.

When the other people were running away from this place, a group of armed people came and surround us.

There were dozens of them.

「Dammit, they got me this time! The knife is poisoned!」

The one-eyed knight suddenly screamed as he fell to his knee.

「Oi, Manrakians, you went too far!」

Bennet spoke as a frown appeared on his face.

But, he didn’t get the leeway in this kind of situation.

「It’s okay, right? I prefer this kind of excitement rather than this boring job.」

The purple-haired woman revealed a belligerent smile as she readied her sword.

「K-Kanata-san, this is...」

Pomera spoke to me while looking around restlessly.

「... It seems they’re aiming at those knights.」

I suddenly recalled Rosmonde’s reminder from a few days ago.

『Yesterday, a group of strange people came to Manarak. They carry weapons despite not being registered as adventurers. One of them resembles the man in the wanted poster that has been attacking travelers. Those ruffians who aren’t registered as adventurers are really standing out since they’re walking in the city when it’s still broad daylight with weapons in their hands, which is clearly strange. Even a stupid person can guess that those people are up to no good.』

「Y-You guys... What are you?」

The one-eyed knight who rolled on the ground raised his face as he looked at us with a dumbfounded look on his face.

「TCH!」

The purple-haired woman was landing near us.

It seems she was forced to retreat by the enemies’ attacks since her armour was damaged, there were bruises on her body too.

There was also scald from the heat of the exploded fireball from the flare drago.

... I guess the level of royal capital knight isn’t that high.

Those three were at least as strong as A-rank adventurers.

The purple-haired woman stooped forward, and picked out the magic pouch of the one-eyed knight.

「I’m going to look after this.」

「I’ll leave it to you... This is, the end of me after all...」

And then, the purple-haired woman escaped from the gap between the enemies.

The knights seem to come to Manarak to deliver something.

And the target of those assailants might be kept in the magic pouch.

「S-SOMEONE SHAVE MHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!」

Bennett’s scream resounded in the area.

When I turned to the direction of that voice, I saw the flare dragon-with Dogma mounted on its head- was holding Bennet in its jaws, dragging him along the ground.

「HYAHAHAHAHAHAHA! YOU DISSAPOINT ME, KNIGHT-SAMA! YOU’RE JUST A HINDRANCE! ANYONE WHO DARES TO STOP ME WILL TASTE MY WRATH!」

The flare dragon rushed toward me from the front.

Now I get a clear view of Bennett’s tears-stained face.

I might hit Bennet by accident if I used magic in this situation.

I unsheathed 《Hero Sword; Gilgamesh》, and slashed the approaching flare drago.

The flare dragon crumbled into ashes the moment 《Hero Sword; Gilgamesh》 struck it.

The flare drago’s head fell on the ground.

「OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO....」

It roared for the last time before it vanished.

I caught Bennet who fell from the jaw of the flare drago with my left hand.

「Hiha, hahahahahaha...」

Suddenly, I heard a feeble laugh from behind.

The owner of the voice was Dogma who fell from flare drago.

His limbs were broken from the sudden fall and bending to strange directions.

「You, are... Way too strong...」

Dogma barely kept consciousness and then passed out due to pain.
