"Ah, the dragon of that time!?

I shouted at the man.

... hah! Shit!

Dragon?

The doorman looked at me with a suspicious look.

"Wow, wow! Chi, no! This one....."

"Who's this guy?

I kept pointing my finger at the man.

"I'm a dragon researcher! In the city I used to live in, this guy was looking into dragons. And because I said" dragon, dragon "all the time, my nickname became" dragon "...."

Honestly, I thought it was a painful excuse.

'Cause I didn't expect to meet you here all of a sudden... there's nothing I can do about it.

But the gatekeeper,

"I see! Did you know Master Eliane?

He seems to have convinced me.

Good... I guess this guy wasn't much of a thinking type.

"I'm not a dragon researcher-- Ngugugu!

Before the man ran over the extra things, I blocked his mouth and walked a little away from the gate guard.

"... why are you here? Besides, why do you look like a human...."

I whispered so that the doorman wouldn't hear me.

That's right.

This man... or dragon, he was one of the few people to talk to when I was in the Kingdom.

That was when I was confined to the royal castle and free.

I tried to fly my thoughts far away with a distraction that I couldn't even go out.

Nevertheless, there are quite a few people who are able to receive reminders. Because you have to have as much magic as you can to cope with the story.

That's why I tried it almost with a feeling of waste of time...

"Who is it? Who's a fool trying to talk to me in person?

Someone answered me.

I didn't think anyone would answer, "Eh!? I was surprised, but immediately began to communicate with him.

"Who are you?

"Me? Surprise me. I am the dragon that dominates the world."

I felt the dragon's chest tightened all the time.

No, I just felt like I couldn't see the other person.

I thought it was a joke at first.

But as we continued our conversation with him, it turned out that he was really a dragon, not a joke.

Apparently, the dragons were free, and we became "mindful friends" who were not communication friends, and we talked about not having other love.

"Listen to me. My fiancée, Prince Claude, looked at me like I was garbage...."

Hmm. I've always thought that Claude was a real scum. I know how spicy you are. "

I don't know.

The first one was, "Is it a scary dragon? Surprises and accidents. When I talked to him, he turned out to be a good listener and easy to talk to.

And now.

Speaking of which, when you banished the kingdom, you forgot to tell the dragon...

I didn't expect to see you again here.

"I can't be real and show up in front of the city. He's in the shape of a man so he doesn't get confused."

I see. The dragon has a point.

But... how could you be such a beautiful boy!? You get nervous when you talk to such handsome people.

"Yet, Elaine, you soon realized you were my dragon."

"Of course. A vast amount of magic like yours, no. I'm good at discerning people and monsters by magic."

I see.

Hmm... I can't believe it, but it was a dragon back then.

Even though power is suppressed by being a person, magic is not so easy to change.

"So... let me ask you again, why are you here? You certainly lived in a dragon's nest near the kingdom?

"Hmm... that's all..."

Then I heard a quick story from the dragon.

Apparently, after I was banished, the dragon realized that the border had disappeared and headed for the Kingdom.

So when they heard about my exile, the angry dragons were traveling around the world to distract themselves...

It's a dragon. It will also be possible to fly around at high speeds.

Even so, you're going on a world trip with the ease of saying, "I'm going to buy dinner tonight."

"And when I was passing through this neighborhood, I noticed a boundary that completely covered the city. There's only one person, Elianne, who can make this connection."

"Oh... is that so?"

I didn't think the boundary would produce such an effect.

"But the dragon. It's good to see you again after a long time. I'm looking good, above all else."

"That's our dialogue."

But... I can't believe my friend's dragon is so handsome...

I'm a little confused.

"Stand up and talk. It's Elaine. It's been a long time. There will be stories."

"Fufu, is that Nanpa?

"Nanpa...?

"It's an act of inviting a favorite girl on a date."

It's been a long time since I've seen a dragon, and I was in a good mood.

That's why I made such a joke.

But the dragon doesn't change its complexion.

"Hmm... a favorite girl. Then there's no doubt about the number one. I love Elaine."

I said something terrible.

Eh...? The dragon told you about me?

I wonder what I really think!

Now I'm pretending to be handsome, but the man in front of me is a dragon! Dragons and people are different species in the first place!

I'm sure what he likes means by 'as a person to talk to'.

"Ah, thank you... well, the dragon is inviting me, so I can't go anywhere."

And I managed to give it back.

Breathe, breathe, breathe.

Let's go back to my pace...

"But I can't go into the right coffee shop."

"Why?

"Well... you're not a human being, and you have a lot of problems."

Just because you're a good dragon doesn't mean you can't let me into the city.

"I'll ask Nigel."

Nigel, what is that?

"I can trust you."

Nigel has a duty, and you can't hide anything...

Nigel, what would you look like if the dragon came?

Because it's about him, I don't think I'd do anything wrong if I explained it politely.

I took the dragon to the gatekeeper for a moment and returned to the royal castle.
