“Tch, unlike the dragon material before, this one is …….”

“Is it hard?”

“Yeah, it’s a lot harder. This is going to be a long fight.”

“Then can you repair the old equipment for now? I’ll come back for the equipment made from the Burn Dragon.”

“I’m sorry, I said it would be quick, but this is just pathetic. You’re right, I’ll start with the ones I can finish first.”

The next day, Arjan-san, who had been struggling to process the Burn Dragon’s fangs and claws since early in the morning, told me with a reluctant face.

Apparently, they’re even stronger than Sarge’s, and the shaping process is already difficult.

“Can you give me one more day? We’ll focus our efforts on that today.”

“Okay.”

I stayed another day and found that Ryuuze’s armor, the greatsword and my equipment had been successfully restored. They were polished so carefully that they looked as good as new.

“Are you leaving?”

“Yes. I still have a lot of work to do, after all.”

“Take care. I’m sorry, but I’ll have it done in ten days.”

“It’s your first time using the material, so it can’t be helped. Originally, we only needed to repair the equipment, not the materials for the Burn Dragon. “

“Really? Anyway, don’t you die out there. It would be boring if you guys died.”

When Arjan-san looked at us with a smile, Ogure-san nodded and replied.

“I’m going to fight to prevent that from happening, of course. Thank you for lending this.”

“Oh, please! I’ll take care of your sword, too.”

After the request was accepted, Arjan-san and the others saw us off and we left the town.

“So this is the end. There’s no need for come, right, Teacher?”

“No, that’s not true. You never know where they might come, and if Lars-kun can’t move, we can at least come and get him.”

“I don’t think that’s going to happen, though ……”

“I don’t know about you, but if Asmodeus, Adramelech, and Lucifugus are in Gust’s town, it’s going to be pretty tough to take on just one of them, and that’s if they resurrect fast enough. You were lucky to escape, weren’t you?”

When Lilith responded to Irumi’s opinion, she said with a sense of disappointment. Then, Basleigh-sensei opened her mouth.

“That was quite something, wasn’t it? I have the power of Regal, and I’m just about even with him. I’m sure that if you were to take advantage of your immortality like Retzel-san and do a kamikaze attack, you would be able to beat him by taking each other out.”

“That’s harsh …… But that’s probably the best I can do right now. I’m not training at all right now, after all.”

“It’s because you’re always in the dark.”

Reiss smiles wryly and sarcastically, but when you think about it the other way around–

“So there’s still room for improvement for Retzel.”

“I don’t deny it, but I don’t think I can be of much help to you, since my skills are not really suited for fighting.”

“Still, it never hurts to have a little power, right?”

“…… Are you sure about that? If I get stronger, won’t that get me in trouble?”

“I’m going to be stronger than that, so don’t worry. I’m going to stop you if you do anything like you did back then.”

“Fuh, I’ll keep that in mind. Then maybe we should go to Dragon Island.”

“Huh, training …… I don’t like to get muddy.”

“You don’t have to fight, Irumi. You should take care of yourself.”

“……”

“?”

Retzel says something unusually considerate, and I raise an eyebrow. It seems that he’s been with Irumi and Reiss for a long time, so maybe they’re important to him?

While we were having this conversation, we arrived at the forest where Angriff was.

This is the forest where we landed when Sarge brought us here a long time ago, and since Angriff can’t get smaller, I decided to have him wait here.

“Hey, Angriff, are you there!”

“You’re back, Master.”

“Thanks for waiting. Are you all right?”

“No problem. I’m fine. I just knocked down monsters that came at me.”

Angriff’s gaze was met with the bones of several new monsters that he had probably preyed on. As expected, the dragon species is very strong. You can’t beat them unless he’s in the same class as Me or Tigre-sensei.

“So we’re off to Luitzar Country again, huh.”

“Yes. I hope they found Yogus, though.”

“I’m sure he’ll be fine. We’ll get the information through the guild too.”

“I’m looking forward to it. Hmmm, I think I got the order wrong. Maybe we should have asked Sarge to bring us here ……”

“It can’t be helped. We can’t find Dragon Island without Sarge, and we don’t know when we’ll find it, so it’s a good thing we left first.”

That’s what Urka told me, and I thought “That’s true.”. But considering the amount of time it will take to get there, it’s a bit of a waste, that’s for sure.

“Then, let’s get going.”

“Okay. Well, I’m counting on you for a little more.”

“Neigh♪!”

“Brrrr♪.”

The horses neighed vigorously, and we drove the carriage away from the Orpha Country.

Later, we met Yogus in Luitzar, and after explaining the situation to him, he agreed to accompany me.

The area around the town of Gust hadn’t changed much, and after confirming that Hauzen-san, Mizuki-san, and the others were safe, we headed straight for the royal capital Illuminate.

It’s going to take about two weeks to get there, but I wonder how Makina and the others are doing? 

I can’t wait to see your face–

“Kukuku …… Lars told me that hamburgers are delicious when eaten between two pieces of bread like this. “

“What, that’s not fair!? You still have some leftover!”

“Of course, I’m not a gourmand like you, am I?”

“Even though you’re the one who ate the most ……”

“Ha-ha-ha, I’m jealous that I can’t eat, you know.”

–That’s what I thought when I saw the noisy carraige–

※ I’m sorry it’s a little short, because I’m not feeling well and it’s too hard for me to go any further …… I’ll be doing on Makina and the others tomorrow …… Ugh ……
