CH 468

Its bright red scales shone in the sunlight, and it had a physique worthy of the name “Burn Dragon”.

The moment we landed on the ground, we were looking at it, thinking that it was a little bigger than Sarge who was standing in front of us, when the Burn Dragon opened its mouth.

A woman’s voice, as fluent as Sarge’s, asks us, her reptilian eyes narrowing. In response, Sarge bowed and began to speak.

Sarge looked straight at the dragon without hesitation and said clearly.

After a few moments of silence, the burn dragon began to speak quietly.

She sniffed at us and literally looked down on us, which made us raise our voices in disgust. 

“That’s some big words, even if I look like this, I still fought with Sarge and a demon. Do you want to see if how small I am?”

“Yeah! If you want to fight, I’ll fight you!”

“I don’t want to fight, but I will if you make fun of Sarge!’

“Sarge is my family!”

When I stepped forward to tell the Burn Dragon, Ryuuze, Nora, my brother and the others lined up to glare at her. So, Tigre-sensei also smiled wryly and pointed.

“You heard it. We are here to train, and we would love it if you could be our opponent.”

“Hmm. You’re stronger than those winged dragons, aren’t you?”

Fath-san also clasped one hand and snapped her fingers in a provocative tone. And then–

As Sarge squealed with delight, the burn dragon twisted her mouth and said something outrageous.

“W-What are you talking about ……!?”

“T-That’s …….”

Luciel is at a loss for words and wants to say something back. But before he can, Sarge shakes his head and says to the dragon.

“Are you sure? I think most of the people on this island are your friends, but it’s such a goodbye. We can go back home with Lars’ transfer magic circle, and we can stay here, right?”

Luciela said coldly to Sarge, who turned on her heel with a sad look in her eyes.

She probably didn’t really want to stay here, but she didn’t like the idea of the same species fighting over each other …… This may be the words of Luciela, who has made peace with her sister, Luciel.

“Aina will be with you forever! Let’s say goodbye to that stubborn dragon!”

“Kuoon!”

Aina and Ash are also spinning around on his feet and telling Sarge, who narrows his eyes and smiles. It warmed my heart to know that this guy really likes us.

“I thought she’d make a good training partner, though.”

“Well, you may consider our pairing. If we can train until we can eat the fruit Sephiro has–“

We discussed what we were going to do when we got home, wondering if we had any business on this island if Sarge was going to be shunned. As I approached the gondola to fix it, the silent burn dragon’s mouth opened wide.

“! Everyone, get behind me!”

“O-Okay!”

Unexpectedly, the Burn Dragon has shot out a huge fireball!

I quickly put up a barrier to protect everyone, and Sarge one-handedly flicked the fireball away. 

“Kyaaaaahhh!?”

“Calm down, Naru. It’s okay!”

“What the hell is she doing all of a sudden!?”

I was relieved to see that the auto-protection was still in place. But we have to deal with the Burn Dragon for now!

“That’s dangerous, what are you doing! I told you we’re leaving, didn’t I?”

“You ……!”

I was angry at the Burn Dragon that was laughing. The same was true for everyone else, as they each raised their weapons and glared at each other. 

As I was concentrating my magic to make the first move, Sarge moved first. 

I think this is the first time I’ve heard Sarge shout emotionally.

He stepped forward and hit her with his right arm, and the burn dragon held up his hand to catch it. But Sarge’s fist, which he swung out, sent the Burn Dragon’s body floating with the hand that was trying to catch it!

“Sarge!”

“Wow, he ripped open the flames with your breath!”
