Chapter 316: I think there’s a high likelihood of that

Chapter 316: I think there’s a high likelihood of that

The samurai girl pulled out a second knife from her breast pocket and once again tried to disembowel herself. Selen swung her sword again to knock off the second knife.

Why wont you let me dispose of myself!?

Look, why dont you tell us your name first?

The samurai girl somehow calmed down after that. At last, she was going to tell us her name.

I am called Akane. I am 17 years of age. I was born in Edou, the nation of the samurais. I have been devoting myself to the way of the sword ever since I was young. And to prove my skills, I have resolved myself to accomplish that which no has ever done: to traverse the vast mountain range.

However, somewhere along the way, when she was exhausted and was about to die, Dora rescued her.

From what I could observe, we are in a western nation, correct? I was certain I was doomed when that dragon caught me in its jaws though

Akane-san said so and tilted her head, confused.

That dragon is over there, by the way.

Yes, Im the one who saved you!

Eh? Sorry but no matter how simple-minded I might be, I wouldnt fall for a jest like that.

Except for the horns on her head and her tail, Dora looked nothing more than an any ordinary girl, after all.

It was really me, you know! Observe!

From a room in the highest floor of the palace being used as the village chiefs residence, we moved to a balcony. Otherwise, it would have been quite troublesome if Dora was to transform into a dragon inside.

This balcony was very large, containing things like a pool and an open-air bath. Dora often used this spot as her landing point whenever she visited the village as it had no problem even with her larger size as a dragon.

Do you believe me now!?

It, it was the truthI thought you were simply having a laugh at my expense

Akane-san said so and then put her hand inside her breast pocket.

Surely not, right?

I apologize for ever doubting you! Alas, I could not imagine a satisfactory way to apologize! I suppose, the best I could offer is this life

Enough with that already!

She had a third knife and with it tried to disembowel herself once more. Of course, we stopped her again.

Seriously though, just how many knives is she hiding

With my human transformation magic, I can make myself look like a human. Im from that mountain range, but thanks to this and that, Im in friendly terms with this village. Ive been visiting this village quite often lately.

To be this friendly with a dragonthis villagejust what!?

Akane-sans words trailed off, unable to finish her sentence.

And then, her eyes wandered to the village spread out below the balcony.

T-this is a village!? Dont you mean a major city!? Further, isnt this building were in unbelievably high!?

Well, I suppose in terms of scale, it would be better to describe our village as a city, but

But since the whole place was built through my [Village Building] Gift, I felt like calling it a village was the only correct option.

And there are plenty of buildings Ive never seen beforeso this is that rumored westernwhat should have been a sight reserved for when I made it across on my own power!

We hurriedly moved to restrain Akane-san.

Mm? Whats wrong?

we thought you would take out another dagger and try to disembowel yourself again.

Hahaha, something like this is no reason to commit seppuku.

Akane-san laughed as if to ask what sillyness are you talking about?.

I completely dont get what criteria she uses when deciding to disembowel herself.

That aside, what do you say to me giving you a tour of the village? This isnt how I imagined itll go though, since youve already seen the village.

Mmthen, I think I will take you up on your kind offer, Luke-dono.

say, Philia, if this is the first village someone sees on this side, do you suppose theyll think this is the norm here?

I think theres a high likelihood of that, Selen-dono.
