My House Is a Magic Power Spot ~Just by Living There I Become the Strongest in the World~ - Chapter 232
I was going through Dragon King tutoring. Sakura and I sat on a bench in the garden as the lesson with Hesty began.
Ramiyuros was sitting in front of us stuffing tea cakes into her mouth.
「Uwaa, this apple cake is delicious! You made these Sakursan?」
「Yes. I have been wanting to increase the variation of my tea cakes. I’m glad that you like them.」
「Of course I do~ I never got to eat delicious things like this when I was flying around in the sky…」
She said seeming very serious.
I suppose part of it was that she was hungry, but Sakura’s cake was truly delicious.
「Nee, you think so too, right Hesty?」
「n, I do…」
Hesty said curtly but I could see her mouth moving happily as it chewed.
It was clear she was more focused on eating than talking.
「I’m glad you two enjoy it……how about you Master? Do you like it?」
「Yeah of course. I think it might be the tastiest one yet.」
「Fufu, thank you very much. It’s because I’ve been doing my best to improve every day.」
Sakura said with a small guts pose.
It looks like this was something she had great confidence in. It’s great that everyone liked it.
「Wow~ I’m really glad I came down from the sky. So delicious.」
「Ah, thinking about it…you used to just stay up in the sky and live there Ramiyuros? What did you do for food?」
「Un? Normally I’d just grab some monsters from the sky dungeon that seemed edible. Well many of them had tough meat and weren’t tasty at all. Sometimes my dragon friends on the ground would send me some food, but mostly I just lived off of the dungeon creatures.」
It looked like she had been living a considerably ‘wild’ life.
Dragon Kings usually didn’t fuss over their food, but it seems she was unique even amongst them.
I looked to Hesty to see what she had to say about this.
「Well, Ramiyuros is quite, the glutton…so she will eat, many things that others, won’t. That’s why, she got fat……」
「Waaaahhh, you’re so mean Hesty! I’ve even lost a little weight since coming down here~ It’s really hard for Dragon Kings to lose weight~」
「Eh? Really?」
I tried to get Hesty to verify as she made a difficult expression.
「For us Dragon Kings, our body weight, and height will remain, mostly the same once we reach, adulthood. We can change our appearances using magic, but our true body won’t, change too much. The Dragon Kings you have met, haven’t changed, much over the years.」
「I see…is it something like perennial youth?」
「In human terms, yes. Adult Dragon Kings won’t age much. They grow during, childhood……but Ramiyuros who has continued, to grow in her, adulthood is an exception.」
「Okay, roger that.」
「Uuuu~ I’ve even been restraining myself~ I think you’re too harsh on me Hesty~」
Ramiyuros complained and Hesty simply turned away and kept eating cake.
Their relationship is heartwarming.
…..but still since I’ve come to this world I’d met 5 Dragon Kings.
Plus Hesty had said there were 7 Dragon Kings. So it meant I had met all but two of them.
「…somehow it feels like my social circle is filled with Dragon Kings.」
「n, I’d say so. We can’t leave, your power alone, and it draws us. It can’t be helped.」
「That’s true. I could even feel your power when I was still in the sky. I’d say that the last two will end up coming over too.」
「I don’t need any more of that type of visitor though…」
I just wanted to live peacefully and happily.
Maybe it was because of the wolf people, Dragons, and spirits that came around here…but the monster attacks had lessened.
「Well, even if they’re a Dragon King, I don’t mind them visiting as long as they don’t cause a problem.」
「Haha, I like your tolerance Daichi-san.」
「Why thank you. It’s not really tolerance, I think it’s a normal stance.」
It’s just an ordinary wish for people to not cause me troubles. I thought…
「D-Daichi-dono~ Are you home~?」
A primary source of troubles arrived——Dianeia.
「Oh thank goodness. Here you are Daichi-dono……Eh? Wh-why are you looking at me so sorrowfully?」
「No, don’t worry about it. It’s just a premonition. What’s going on Dianeia? Did you come for some tea?」
「Ah….I’m happy for the invitation and will take you up on it a little later, but I have something else. I came to hand over your cash reward as usual.」
Dianeia said and dropped the bag of cash on the table like usual. But she didn’t stop there like she usually did.
「Also as I was walking through the forest I saw a child on the outskirts of your garden staring at your house. Is she an acquaintance of yours?」
「A child?」
「Yeah she should be over there.」
Dianeia said and looked towards the main entrance.
Our gazes were drawn in that direction and there we saw…
「……….uuuu……..」
A small child looking over uneasily.
「……who is that?」
「I don’t know…..so it isn’t a friend of yours?」
「I don’t know them either.」
「Then it isn’t Sakura’s friend either……then how about you two?」
We turned to look at the two Dragon Kings and saw their eyes blinking with surprise.
The child met their eyes and let out a sigh of relief.
「Oh Hesty-san Ramiyuros-san…thank goodness. You were here……P-please help me~」
and started running over unsteadily.
It seemed to be an acquaintance of the two of them, but I wonder who. That doubt was answered by Hesty’s quiet question.
「『Half-Strong』 Dragon King Nagini? Why are you here?」
Speak of the devil…….
It appears this small Dragon King had wandered on over.
