122 Episode 122: The Dragon Emperor Knights of Resurrection

◆ Liliera ◆

"You're Princess Ryu."

On his way back to the inn, a man in a hood suddenly appeared in front of him.

Um, maybe he's from back society again?

But why did you come straight from the front today when you said you've been hitting me so hard?

Maybe you're just gonna let him get off guard and hit him from behind?

Shall I activate the physical enhancement magic just in case?

Weaken them so they don't get distracted.

"You're wrong."

"Play. We know that."

Yeah, you have no idea.

"I'll call people."

"I was wondering if I should stop that. What if you don't want to involve the inhabitants of this town?

"I wonder what that means?

No way. Now you're gonna take the people in town hostage?

Even if you're a person in the back of society, isn't that just too much to do with a squid hammer?

If you turn all the inhabitants of town to your enemies, it'll be hard to do that either.

"We have a favor to ask you."

"Do me a favor?

You said you've been attacking me scattered, and now we're discussing it? Well, they're taking the people of town hostage, so it's still not going to be dastardly enough.

"We want to negotiate with His Majesty the Dragon Emperor."

"Huh?"

Dragon Emperor? That? Wasn't that the former tightening of the Squid Sama fraternity?

No, well, I did hear the Dragon Emperor was being targeted.

No way then...

"Yeah... maybe it was one of your guys who attacked us before."

"Exactly. But that's Princess Ryu and his people. I didn't expect to get all of our elites back."

"I was so weak, I thought it was the work of the shoddy bandits..."

"... Huh?

"... ah"

And, shit, I accidentally got the real deal.

Don't, I think I've been dyed by Mr. Rex's standards lately. You have to be careful.

"Mm-hmm! And that's it. We seek to negotiate with His Majesty the Dragon Emperor. The price is the lives of the inhabitants of this town."

◆

"Oh, my God, what happened?"

Upon her return to the Inn, Liliera explains to us what happened on her way home.

"It's not hard for a town to be a hostage.

"Yes, you need to report to the Guards and the Adventurers Guild in a hurry."

"I think we should stop doing that. If they see you go explain the situation, the worst people in town could be attacked to show off."

Mr. Megli will stop Mr. Norb from telling the guards that they should report him immediately.

"I agree. They'll be watching us more than they've done that far."

"So what are you gonna do, brother? Are you honestly going to go to Soitz and the others?!?"

In my words, Gyro, you look worried.

Yeah, it's good to have your buddies worried.

"Hmm, you should stop that, too. They say they have a look at the Dragon Emperor, but as far as I can remember, their aim is definitely Dragon Emperor's life."

Right, I don't think the person who's been after the Dragon Emperor will solve it with more discussion now.

I can see that pretending to talk about it and targeting your life because they can hardly defeat it is a pattern that has often happened in previous lives.

Yeah, I was often targeted for my life.

"But do we have to drink more of their demands than the people in town are being held hostage?

Um, we need to hurry up and take some action on this.

……

And, in the meantime, I notice Mr. Lune shivering with a bright blue face for some reason.

"What is it, Mr. Lune?

"Huh!?"

Mr. Lune shook his body with a victory when I called him. [M]

"Mr. Lune? What's really going on here?

I know it makes you nervous to hear that the people in town are being held hostage, but this fright on the boulder is odd.

"Shh, excuse me, Master Rex..."

"What's wrong, Lune? Why are you apologizing?

I notice something wrong with Mr. Lune, and Mr. Liliera asks what she means by her words.

"Me... my, my fault!!"

All of a sudden, we were surprised at Mr. Lune for saying it was his fault.

"Hey, what is it!?"

"This is what happened because I couldn't be a Dragon Knight sooner!

Yep!? Why does that happen!?

"Because I, the descendant of Princess Ryu, couldn't prove it quickly!

"Mr. Lune is the descendant of Princess Ryu!?"

What the hell is going on?

"Relax, it's okay, Lune"

When confused by the disturbed Mr. Lune, Liliera gently hugs Mr. Lune and forgives him.

"Huh!? Well, then"

"It's okay, calm down"

Gently, Mr. Liliera strokes Mr. Lune's back as she softens the child.

"Ah..."

It was Mr. Lune, who was excited, but he regained some calm as Mr. Liliera stroked his back.

Um, I'm thankful to have a lady companion at times like this.

Honestly, we couldn't have forgiven Mr. Lune so quickly if we were just men.

And Mr. Leune, who has regained his composure, begins to talk about the situation.

"I am a descendant of a child born between the Dragon Emperor and Princess Dragon..."

Mr. Lune began to talk about what had once happened so that he could chew slowly.

"When Princess Ryu's child was born, several generations later, my ancestors were born. But your ancestors were born with a serious illness, and one day they went to a doctor in another country to treat them."

"Huh? They sent you under the doctor even though you're royal? If it's a serious illness, I think I'll call a regular doctor."

And, Mr. Norb tilts his neck.

Yeah, it's normal to call a doctor if you're royal or noble.

"It seems that your ancestors' illness was a difficult illness to treat, and that they were to be treated in a strange spiritual area with both curative and curative powers."

Yeah, there's certainly a strange land that greatly amplifies the resilience of creatures.

I've done it for research in previous generations.

And you also needed the help of such land to treat Mr. Lune's ancestors.

"Happy or unhappy, the terrible epidemic that took the lives of the dragon knights happened when your ancestors were out of the country to treat the disease," he said.

I'm fortunate to be unhappy, but Mr. Lune laughs bitterly.

"And he was an ancestor who had successfully completed his treatment, but was unable to return to his hometown in the years leading up to the end of the epidemic."

Well, that's right. Even if the corner disease heals, this time if you have an epidemic disease, you have no ex or child.

"And after a few years, your ancestors, who confirmed that the epidemic had ended, were finally able to tread on the soil of their homeland."

Mr. Lune's expression remained sad when his ancestors said he was back in his hometown.

But back home, there was no family, and the country was ruled by the prime ministers.

Oh, speaking of which, the dragon emperors and dragon knights at the time were wiped out by epidemic diseases, and the prime ministers and nobles ruled on their behalf.

"Is that it? But that's weird."

"Yeah, the royal family that draws Dragon Emperor's blood is back, so the Chancellor has to return the throne to Lune's ancestors, right?

Is that everybody? and shake his neck.

Mm-hmm. It's starting to get kind of disturbing.

"He said your ancestors were very surprised. In the country, the Chancellor announced that all royalty had died."

That was the beginning of the tragedy, Ms Lune says.

"At first, he was an ancestor who tried to meet the prime ministers and inform them of his return, but for some reason he was suddenly attacked when he said he was a phony who cheated on the royal name"

Wow, it's a mess to attack without even checking the authenticity.

"Wasn't there anything to prove whether it was real or not?

Yeah, nobles have rings to prove their successors, too.

"They said it did, but it was lost in the assassin raid."

"You can squeeze even if you say you're a real royal, as long as you take away the evidence. That sort of thing."

Guess what the prime ministers do when Mr. Megli, who is always calm, seems unusual and grumpy.

And that's such a forceful way to do it.

It was a long time ago, so I can't be sure anymore, but maybe epidemic diseases were caused by the prime ministers...

It's also suspicious that even though the royal family was wiped out except for Mr. Lune's ancestors, the Chancellor and the other nobles were safe.

"The ancestors, who were attacked by assassins on several occasions, decided that the prime ministers were definitely after them, and they disguised their deaths. And to take the Prime Ministers' proclamation backwards, they secretly joined the surviving Dragon Knight disciples and began their training. To be a dragon knight myself."

"Well done. I'm surprised there was such a conspiracy behind that old story."

"Yeah, but there's more to it than that legend. There's an eye for reversal if you can even follow the dragon. It was then that we had the chance to name ourselves the heirs of real royal blood."

But Mr. Lune drops his shoulder.

"It was difficult to reproduce the moves of the lost Dragon Knight, and many of our compatriots lost their lives in the battle against the Dragon. And a few years ago, my father died of illness, and I was the only survivor of the royal family."

You remember your late father, Mr. Lune stroking his own spear in loneliness.

"I was about to give up when I was alone... but that's when we met. Princess Ryu, no to Mr. Liliera!

"Huh? Me?

Suddenly she talks to herself and Mr. Liliera circles her eyes in surprise.

"Yes! When I met Liliera, who manipulated the same, no more sharpened, dragon emperor's dragon emperor, I was braved from the bottom of my heart to say that I was not the only one carrying on the royal blood and dragon knight's moves!

"No, that's why I'm not..."

"Yeah, in the end it was my mistake, but I could still meet Master Rex. Thanks to your help, I was able to descend the Silver Dragon and become a true Dragon Knight!

As far as it goes, Mr. Lune was detained for discipleship to Mr. Liliera because of that circumstance.

But after I say that, Mr. Lune drops his shoulder.

"But it seemed too late. I can't believe they did this... at least if they could have followed the Silver Dragon a year earlier, they would have been able to proclaim the royal resurrection to the people at the last ritual of Princess Dragon. That way, the anti-dragon imperial outburst... because I was too late..."

Ms Lune blames herself for her immaturity causing their rampage.

"I wouldn't say anything if I could meet Master Rex sooner. But I don't want to spend the days from your father's death to this day for no reason, and I wish I was more willing to die and build a workout..."

"That's not him. Whoa!

"Huh!?"

Surprised by a sudden loud voice, Mr. Lune trembles with a victory.

And it was you, Gyro, who raised your voice.

"You're not bad! The bad news is they're anti-dragon imperialists! You're not bad!

"Ja, Mr. Gyro......?

"You were just trying desperately to do what you could! My family died and I freaked out! If I'm in the same position, I'll be worried sick! So stop saying bad things about yourself, too!

"Uh... hey, the..."

Gyro, to your momentum, Mr. Lune is black-and-white his eyes.

But thanks to his surprise, Mr. Lune seems to have regained some calm.

"Yes, Lune's not bad. You've been working so hard to make your way home as a successor?

"Yes! The bad news is they're the nobles who took over the country!

"Not all the nobles are bad, though. Some of you will be on your side."

"Yeah, we're on our side."

Everyone encourages Mr. Lune to follow you, Gyro.

"That's right, Mr. Lune. Mr. Lune has worked so hard not to give up, that Mr. Lune could be a Dragon Knight."

"Master Rex... thank you, all of you..."

Good, Mr. Lune seems to have been relieved thanks to all of us.

Yeah, yeah, this is who friendship is, isn't it?

I never met anyone in my previous life who could have been in this relationship, but it was really nice to meet Mr. Lune.

When Mr. Leune, who has regained his mind, rises up, he bows his head deeply towards us.

"Excuse me, Master Rex. Even though there were circumstances, I kept a secret from my master, who taught me Dragon Emperor Liu. Because my late father had ordered me not to reveal my identity to anyone until I gave proof of Princess Ryu. I'm sorry about all of you."

"No, never mind. If that's what happened, it's the only way."

"Yeah, well, I care too much. There are things that no human being can tell you."

"Yeah, everyone has important secrets"

Beat Mr. Lune on the shoulder and comfort him that Mr. Mina and Mr. Megli don't care.

And Mr. Lune also leaks a sigh of relief by finally being able to tell everyone about the situation.

"But Master Rex needs to figure out a way to do something about the Anti-Dragon Empire..."

When I thought of it, I remembered the anti-dragon imperial threats and dropped my shoulder again.

"Uh, that's it, but I have a good idea."

"To Master Rex?

"Yeah, so leave it to me."

Too much to take the people of town hostage because of how much their power is threatened.

This is the most noble thing a nobleman should do.

It's called Mr. Lune's case. Come on, we have to fight back from here.

"Hmm. This is a hunch of commotion."

You're done with the killer.

Exactly. I'm still in the mood for that, guys.

Nevertheless, I intend to initiate action!

Come on, it's time to fight back!

◆ Town residents ◆

The sun rises and the hens squeal.

"Uh, I can't sleep."

Rubbing my sleepy eyes, I open the kitchen window.

I had a late drinker last night, and I'm late for bed, too.

"Well, why don't we go to the market today?"

No matter how sleepy you are, you can't be late for purchasing.

If we don't hurry up, the others will take the good ingredients.

Open the back door to get to the market in a hurry.

Then...

Gasha, gasha, gasha.

A knight in black armor passed by who had never seen him before.

"To?"

Who is it?

Besides, if you look closely, the knight is not alone.

Dozens of knights walk down the back streets in creepy movements.

"Hey, why is there a knight here...?

And after a while, the knights screamed from ahead on their way.

"Hey, what the fuck!?"

Besides, screaming isn't one thing. I heard it coming from all directions.

"Hey, what's going on!?"

◆

"Wow!?"

Screaming all over town today.

Strangely enough, no one panics in such an unusual situation.

Yes, because for the inhabitants of the town, this scream had already become a normal sound.

A little later, the knights of black armor show up from the alley with the likelihood of a galloping man.

"Hey, aren't those the bandits that are keeping the slums in their territory?

"The Black Knights have caught the bandits again!

The men can tell they're bandits, and the people in town cheer.

They came from somewhere one day, and this is how they found the villains in town, and they captured them.

A bunch of armor that doesn't know any traits.

It's obviously suspicious, but they catch bandits and criminals, so the people in the town who were anxious at first are now treating them favourably too.

"Hey, maybe you're the one who said Mr. Rex had a good idea?

Ask questions that I was somewhat afraid to ask answers to, although I thought maybe.

"Yeah, you're right."

"I knew you were Mr. Rex's associate... but where did you get those people from?

They're definitely a bunch of skilled men who can capture all the villains in town with a lot of momentum.

That out of common sense investigative ability to find villains all over town, while also gaining strength to capture villains.

Obviously, it's not normal.

Who the hell is Mr. Rex who can bring those people in this short period of time?

We talked about him coming from a village in the country, but he's not a regular village dweller, no matter what you think.

Are you sure you're the Dragon Emperor?

"No, I didn't call people. I made it."

……

To Mr. Rex's words, we lean our necks.

Uh, I think something strange just flew...

"" "" "" "... Made it?

"Yes, Tyran's policy during this time was to produce a large quantity of magically moving armor."

Blatant and Mr. Rex will make the seed.

You used the magic of moving armor in the meantime to the point of becoming.

Sure, then it would be strange if a bunch of people appeared out of the blue to act like Mr. Rex...

"" "" "" I made it. Ahhh!? "" "

"Huh!? Wait a minute!? Did you make that bunch of armor?!?"

"How do you move all that number of armor when you move by magic!?"

"My brother made all that! Awesome!"

"When did you make so many!?"

Everyone who understands what Mr. Rex said late stuffs Mr. Rex in the mouth.

"Uh, those armors are a kind of golem. I didn't know who the anti-dragon imperial executioners who came into contact with Mr. Liliera were, so I ordered them to be captured as soon as I found a malicious person."

"I said something terrific!

I mean, it's easy to tell malice or something!?

"So all those black armor guys in town were golems!?"

"Yeah, but I didn't have a lot of material, so I can't do very complicated operations."

"Ha!? But you said hello back to the people in town!? You can only act like a golem!?"

Mina is told that the golem can only make simple moves, and she absurds her voice when she doesn't believe it.

Or what's that tone?

Mina is right. The golem can only act monotonously...... Apparently.

I've never fought, but I remember people actually fighting the Golem saying that.

But although the golem we saw was speechless, the movement didn't seem like a very crop.

"Fortunately, the gemstone I got from the Megalo Whale was used in the core of the device in a good way, so I just made some armor that was gawa and moved it."

"Sake it, you can't make it that easy with armor, can you?

"Oh, I let Golem help me with that, too. Let the first few golems do the easy machining work, and I'll have less trouble. And then every time the number increases, the working speed increases and increases."

Well, then there's nothing I'm not convinced of...

"But you've often been able to gather this much armor material. You must have used the dragon material you used to hunt to intercept these demons."

"Well, thanks to you, the scale of the dragon we hunted sold at a high price!

Well, that was a pretty good income.

Honestly, a few times as much as I did a few months ago, no. Dozens of times as much.

My hands still tremble when I think I've got it on my own...

"Yeah, that's why I just went to Dragon Peak and hunted the scales of the dragons. Nevertheless, I hunted too much in the meantime, so this time I didn't take my life, I only got scales."

"" "" "" That's cool "" ""

Wow, so by now the dragons at Dragon Peak are like chickens with their hair wrapped...

I hope you don't have trauma for humans...

Is there something wrong with what I'm saying?

"Um, I understand the situation, but with all this fuss, why aren't the guards in trouble with Master Rex's golem? I don't think the guards will be able to keep their mouths shut if they do their own town security work."

and asks the question as Lune leans her neck.

You're absolutely right if you ask me.

Even if the guards favorably accepted the Golems' activities, they would probably ask about the circumstances.

Then there's nothing you can do with a mouthless golem.

"You don't have to worry because you're talking to the mayor of town through the Adventurer Alliance's Guild Manager. All you have to do is interrogate the men you've caught and find out who's the anti-Dragon Imperial assassin."

It's all woven up.

Um, when this happens, I feel sorry for the bandits caught in the convoy.

Something completely different.

"Really, who the hell is Master Rex...? It would be more believable if you could just say His Majesty the Real Dragon Emperor..."

Yeah, that's me and no. We agree.

"Oh no, I'm just an adventurer everywhere. I don't know about the golem.

Anyone who researches magic items can make them. "

"" "" "" I can't make it "" "" "

Here, there, huh? Why don't you look at me?

... That's how the anti-dragon imperial assassins who held the town hostage were caught at the root.

The town is safer and everyone is thrilled... what.

There was only one trouble, wasn't there?

Because...

"Hey, maybe those knights are the knights of His Majesty the Dragon Emperor?

"I'm sure you are. You're so strong!

"I know. Those knights' gear processed dragon scales."

"Someone must have given up a lot of dragon material in defense, even during the demonic raids."

"No doubt, His Majesty the Dragon Emperor's Knights were really there!

"I can't believe you not only protected me from the demons, but even made the town safer, that's His Majesty the Dragon Emperor!

Yes, you took the knights who suddenly appeared and thought the people of town were Dragon Emperor knights.

"" "" His Majesty the Dragon Emperor Banzai!! Knights of the Dragon Emperor Banzai!! "" "

Yeah, I don't know.
