Volume 5 - CH 18

Chapter 18 -

«The apostles of Goddess Liliel. Will you be kind enough to save these kids of mine on the Floating island?»

“Please wait, Grandpa! We will fulfill your wish! And, why do we need to rely on outsiders!?”

“Indeed. Are you going to ask outsiders when we don’t even know if they’re capable enough?”

Just like how I was baffled by the dragon’s words, the angel Shael and the Dragon warrior Yahada also raised their voices in bafflement.

«We’re going to have a more serious discussion. Shael, Yahada, leave.»

“"……Yes."”

However, the dragon they called Grandpa asked them to leave, regardless of what they had to say.

Shael and Yahada, complying with his words, unwillingly pulled their friends outside, and left for the settlement we came from before.

«Now, make yourselves at home, visitors.»

“Hmm, alright.”

“Let’s sit down!”

Then, as we sat down on the ground, the mythical beasts who had tagged along came out to support us with their warm, fluffy bellies.

There were also mythical beasts who had secretly followed us and nuzzled themselves on our laps or arms. The colossal dragon watched all of this with loving eyes.

«You’re really loved by mythical beasts whose intuition and instinct far surpass that of humans. Indeed, you’re just the right person to entrust with my request. Speaking of which, my self-introduction is still due, isn’t it? I’m the ancient dragon of Verdigris — a senile old dragon who has been alive for 10,000 years. Everyone calls me Grandfather though.»

“Nice to meet you. ——I’m Witch Chise. And also the apostle of goddess Liliel.”

“Yeah, I guess so.”

Receiving my approval, the dragon grandpa bowed his head.

«You have my gratitude. Indeed, just as Goddess Luriel-sama said in the oracle. You will become the key to bringing my children back to the surface from this ark.»

And in this way and on a peaceful note, my first encounter with the dragon grandpa — who looked as if a weight had been taken off his shoulders — came to an end.

T/N - Beretta’s - Master, please bring more guests.

Chise - Alright. (Bring-in whole legion of Mythical beasts and demonic race)

Beretta - Master, when I said to bring more guests, that wasn’t what I meant.

Somehow, this meme automatically replayed in my mind xD.
