Translated by SoundDestiny

“『Little ones…..for what reason did you set foot in my realm and take the life of my servant!　If you have any righteous reason, speak!』”

“It spoke!? The dragon!”

A low voice shook Raidorl and Neferte’s earlobes.

The sound of the heavy voice, which seemed to echo from the depths of the earth, caused Neferte to shout, holding? his ears.

“Of course he can talk. He’s a dragon.”

Neferte was surprised, but on the other hand, Raidorl was calm.

Raidorl had once encountered a dragon in the Devil’s Forest.

The dragon also spoke human language fluently and had intelligence on a par with humans. For a dragon with power beyond the reach of humans, it was a simple matter to manipulate the human language.

“I apologise for entering your territory without permission.Fernigesh, the black dragon.”

Raidorl stepped forward on behalf of Neferte and attempted to interact with the black dragon overhead.

It is almost certain that the battle will be fought when all the dragon’s underlings are killed.

However, if it is still possible to avoid a fight.The only ones attacking human settlements are the big lizards, and the black dragon Fernigesh has not even been seen.

“My name is Raidorl Zain. I am the royal prince of the Kingdom of Zain and the holder of the holy sword Dáinsleif!　This time, your underlings have come down from the mountains and attacked a human village, so I have defeated them!”

“『………….』”

Fernigesh’s slightly red eyes narrow at Raidorl’s words.

It is impossible to read the expression on the dragon’s. But Raidorl can sense, if only vaguely, that he is in a sour mood.

“I apologise for trampling on your territory. But……It is with a good cause that we are defeating the demons that have ravaged the world of the people. There is no reason for us to be blamed!”

“『My underlings and I are not humans. When non-humans attack and eat people, it is not against any law!　You have no right to accused us of any wrongdoing!』”

Fernigesh retorts in a heavy tone.

A feeling of anger is conveyed from the dragon, which can kill a normal human and its own underling. The dragon still hadn’t attacked Raidorl and Neferte. But, it did not approve of what Raidorl and the others had done.

“Kuk……!”

Neferte’s expression is slightly distorted and he almost falls to his knees.

It wasn’t that the dragon did anything to him but he couldn’t bear the intimidation that was transmitted from Fernigesh.

“’Ugh, ugh …… I won’t lose, I won’t ……!”

He forces his legs, which are about to collapse, by slapping them with his palms and stretches his wobbly knees desperately.

Raidorl is talking to Fernigesh without any sign of fear. He resists the dragon’s intimidation and, showing to Neferte as the holder of the Holy Sword of the same rank, cannot fall.

With Neferte mustering his courage, Raidorl hurled his words at the dragon.

.

“It is the natural order of things that beasts and demons eat people. It is part of the law that governs the world, the law of the weak and the strong! But…..it is also the law of the weak and the strong that demons that ravage the human world are avenged by humans. If it was not wrong for your underling to attack humans, it must also not be wrong for us to avenge them in order to protect the humans!”

『It is only human beings who are obliged to obey the law of do not kill people』. Demons are not obliged to obey people’s rules.

But if the law of the weak and the strong is their law, then it is also reasonable for humans to destroy demons.

The villagers were eaten by the big lizards because they were weak. The big lizards then was defeated by Neferte because it was weak.A simple answer.

“『Hmph……a servant of a fallen god. You are a clever little talker!』”

Fernigesh spat abhorrently.

Spittle spilled from the dragon and fell to the ground below. Part of the ground melts and white smoke forms, as if acid had been poured on it.

“『My underlings attacked a human village because of tectonic changes caused by the witches, which led to a decrease in the number of plants and animals to prey on!　Don’t sing and chirp so loudly after involving us in the internal quarrels of a decaying god!』”

Fernigesh barks.

With a cry, the spittle with the nature of strong acid was sprayed at them, which Raidorl blocked by emitting miasma from his Dáinsleif.

“Your Highness Raidorl?!”

“Don’t worry, I’m good…..for now.”

While preventing acid saliva, Raidorl responds to Neferte, who shelters behind him.

“But……you’re a more painstaking opponent than I expected. I can’t believe that it’s not an attack, just a shout is lethal. That one is ready to kill. A battle is unlikely to be avoided”

Fernigesh has not even attacked yet. He just shouted in frustration at the answer given to him.

Shouted in frustration. It’s not a joke, because that single act caused a rain of strong acid to fall on him.

If Raidorl had not been the holder of the Holy Sword, his entire body would have been exposed to the acid and dissolved until he was reduced to bones.

“Your Highness Raidorl has fought dragons before, hasn’t he? Did you win?”

Nefere asked fearfully. The boy’s face was resolute, but there was a hint of frightened emotion in it.

“My assumption is that the Black Dragon Fernigesh is stronger than the Knights of the Apocalypse I fought. How did we defeat a monster with more power than the Witch’s Apostle?”

“No, I didn’t beat them.I didn’t even fight in the first place.”

“Eh……….?”

Neferte blinked at Raidorl’s unexpected reply.

Once, Raidorl had told Neferte that he had encountered a dragon in the Devil’s Forest. Was that a mistake?

“I’ve had a few encounters. But I didn’t fight it and I didn’t have my holy sword at the time. I’m not so conceited as to think I could beat a dragon.”

“No way, then there’s no guarantee that you’ll win this time either….”

“Oh, come on, that’s the way battles are always fought. There is no such thing as a battle that is 100 percent winnable. It doesn’t matter if the opponent is a dragon or a man. Battle is always where you come out on top.”

Raidorl waved his Dáinsleif and blew off the acid saliva.

The black dragon Fernigesh is still glaring at them. It had a hateful look in its eyes as if it was about to attack them at any moment.

“『Unwinnable battles』 and 『losing battles』are two different things, but……not fighting because you might lose is different. I’m not talking about recklessly taking on a battle you don’t stand a chance of winning. I’m just saying don’t lose with your courage against someone you can beat.”

“………..”

“The Black Dragon Fernigesh……is certainly strong, but it’s not an opponent we can’t beat. A fight is inevitable anyway. You should stand tall and keep your chest out. That’s what heroes do, isn’t it?”

“….. I don’t understand what you are saying. I don’t think I’m going to be able to understand His Highness Raidorl.”

Neferte shook her head emphatically.

In order to regain the kingdom of Athena, it is necessary to get rid of Fernigesh? and his underlings, who are obstacles to the march. Neferte is not timid, but has come to this place with determination for the sake of his homeland.

Even so, he is inclined to blame Raidorl for being reckless if he was going to challenge the dragons in an ill-considered manner.

But Raidorl’s mysterious careless is overwhelming.

Not for a moment does he believe he will lose. He is full of mysterious confidence, as if he has seen a victorious future.

‘Where does it come from? Where does this strong confidence come from? Can I be like His Highness Raidorl……?’

Neferte bites his lip and reaffirms his immaturity, but decides to seize the opportunity for his own growth in this battle.

“Negotiations has break down. Then by all means. If you are willing to kill me, I will be your opponent to the fullest……Fernigesh, the Black Dragon!”

Receiving Neferte’s gaze,…… Raidorl points the tip of his Dáinsleif at the black dragon.

The holder of the Holy Sword and the dragon.

The battle between the world’s strongest beings has begun.
