Chapter 69
Before any disaster strikes, there must always be an accompanying thought of, what could go wrong?
*Whoooosh*
Poison gas was sprayed on everyone in the confines of the Tomb.
Urfff!
Uuuuuuuuu!
The dwarves clutched their necks and suffered from the poison gas that was suddenly sprayed, and then collapsed one by one.
As befits the strongest life form in the world, it seems that even the farts of the dragon boasted immense toxicity close to a biochemical weapon.
Otto was no exception to the effect of the fart of the dragon in front of him.
[Notice: Abnormal Status!]
[Notice: You have been Poisoned!]
[Notice: Health will decrease gradually due to the status abnormality!]
[Notice: Health has been decreased by 10]
[Notice: Health has been decreased by 10]
[Notice: Health has been decreased by 10]
[Notice: Health will continue to decrease if no antidote has been administered.]
But that is only the beginning anyway.
Y-you, Please Tha- enough stop
Otto begged the dragon, but that did not change the current situation.
*Prufff*
Otto despaired hearing the noise.
*Pujjiiyyyyyiiiiiyyyy!!!*
A catastrophe ensued, but that was not the end of it.
-Great, Splendid. Hehehe
The dragon whipped its tail wildly, sending excrement flying in all directions.
(Painting shit on the wall), which is often used to describe a patient with dementia, has become a reality and unfolded before his eyes.
Otto just stood there blankly in the pouring poop rain.
Because there was no way to evade and solve this terrible situation with Ottos power.
*Chhiik*
In the meantime that he stood there stupefied on the spot, he was even hit in the face by an excrement.
Feeling the damp and wet shit on his face, Otto internally despaired.
-Ah! Lets go see the baby dragon! Mmmmm, hehehe
The dragon looked back at Otto, who was asking did he do well? while making a face.
No
Otto let out his anger in a desperate tone.
Smearing shit on the wall abou you dragon
A mixed voice of resentment, anger, absurdity, shame and other emotions flowed from Ottos mouth.
But thats the only thing he can do right now.
Ah
Otto was about to scream out in anger, but a thought struck him at the moment and he shut his mouth.
-Did our Dojin already ate? What are you trying to do when youre so skinny? Grandma will cook for you in no time just wait here.
It reminded him of his grandmother who passed away a long time ago.
Right, My grandmother also suffered from dementia., were the running thoughts of Otto while looking at the happy dragon shaking his tail wildly and scattering poop here and there.
Grandma suffered from dementia for about three years before she passed away, and Ottos family had a very difficult time at that time.
No matter what anyone said, the person who suffered the most was his grandmother herself.
-I I want to die What kind of good things to see, to live up to this age and show such ugly things I cant even recognize my grandsons face
Grandmother was very distressed when she realized that she had Alzheimers.
The pain of the family was not the only one.
-Emiya! Why dont you feed me! Are you going to starve your mother-in-law?
Every time Grandma showed strange behavior, the feelings of the family who watched it from the side were indescribably devastated.
-Little one, Who are you? Why do you seem familiar?
Grandmothers condition worsened, and later she did not even recognize her beloved grandson.
The day she died in a nursing hospital, and finally closed her eyes.
It wasnt like a catastrophe of painting the walls with shit like the dragon, but it was a very painful and devastating time for him.
After the incident Dojin never laughed again.
-Ah! Lets go! Dragon Baby wooo.. wooo!
-Dad, Im getting it right
Y-yeah.., you did
Otto wiped the excrement off his face and tried to smile at the dragon.
It reminded him of his grandmother who passed away from dementia, so he couldnt get angry at all.
* * *
But where is this?
Otto thought he was very fortunate.
Why?
Because it was better than a dragon running amok.
Among the typical symptoms of dementia, there were many cases where the personality suddenly changed and became very violent and aggressive.
Dragon, the strongest creature in the world, going crazy and rampaging?
*shivers*
Just imagining it happening was quite terrifying.
Of course everyone here will get killed in the process.
Dozens of cities would be raze to the ground and millions of lives would be lost.
It is nagging him to say that a baby dragon acting cute is better than the fearsome rampaging dragon who does indiscriminate destruction and slaughter.
Painting the wall with shit wasnt great, but..
uh Did my baby poop well?
-Ahh! Its great!
Yeah, yes! good job! oh my my baby pooped was pretty too!
-Rurrrrrr rrr rrrr
When Otto tuned in and even praised the dragon, the dragon loved it like a baby with a bright smile showing his fangs(Otto didnt know if the scene could be described as bright)
Driving me crazy. I lived after waking up a dragon and now I even pay attention to a dragon with dementia. Oh lets treat him like my grandmother.
For a long time, wrapped up in a sense of shame, he teased and comforted the dragon.
Like really treating a baby
In the meantime.
Is my baby hungry? How can your father even have one ogre-
-What do you mean?
The dragons clarity has returned.
-Oh no! W-what is this?! Keugh!
The dragon who came to his senses crumpled his face when he saw that the surrounding area had become a glorious scene full of shit.
-No! How the hell did this happen! Why is everything suddenly a field of poop!
Y-yeah.. That is
When Otto saw that the dragon had come to his senses, he carefully told him about the catastrophe that had occurred earlier.
-W-what? Me? Do I have Dementia?
It may be hard to accept, bu-
-cannot believe it! How dare you deceive me, a dragon!
Please calm down and listen to me
Otto had to say, and repeat what he had been saying for 10 hours to convince the dragon.
It was because the dragon did not accept the fact that he had dementia, and the conversation itself took a hit because his mind went back and forth when he wanted to understand it.
As a result,
So my conclusion is that the elderly dragon has dementia.
-Oh my god! I I have Dementia This Quran is suffering from dementia
A dragon who finally learned and accepted the truth.
No, Quran, the Dragon with Dementia, shed tears like chicken droppings.
Ahhh..
When she was diagnosed with dementia, the image of his grandmother came to mind, and Otto sighed in regret at seeing such a scene of Quran weeping.
But even in the middle of this, there were some guys who couldnt grasp the atmosphere.
Ohhhh!!
Quick!
The Dwarves who regained consciousness, were scooping up the dragons excrement with a shovel to study whether it was worthwhile as material, came running in a hurry when they saw Quran shedding tears.
Then they began to catch and receive Qurans tears in a bucket.
Like excrement, they wanted to study whether dragon tears were valuable also.
Hey!
Otto opened his mouth at the dwarves.
Anyway, dwarves.
Are creatures who know nothing except forging, crafting, smithing.
Bastards who do not know how to could not sense the atmosphere for the sake of crafting.
Bastards who dont know the meaning of time and place.
These ignorant bastards running around and shoveling poop and catching the falling tears of the dragon.
-Ive lived far too long. How did I live for over 9,900 years theres nothing good living this long. When you get old, you have to die
H-hey?!
Otto was horrified to learn that the dragon Quran was close to 10,000 years old.
He thought the dragon lived for at least a thousand years, but never thought it would actually be close to ten thousand.
Hes very old
When he first saw, Quran, he was surprised that he didnt know what to do, but when he learned about this detail, he realized that it was quite an old dragon.
The wings are torn in various places and have holes in them.
Maybe it was hair loss, the scales fell off quite a bit and the skin became exposed in some areas of Qurans body.
His beard was also drooping, giving off a strong impression of an old man overall.
Its not just that he has dementia.
While thinking so, Otto soothed Quran.
Old man, calm down. It may hurt to accept it at first, but what could you do? Its because youre old. You have to put your mind at ease first.
-How can I put my mind at ease? When Ive done something like this? With such ugliness, how can one maintain this kind of tough life? When youve already reached this certain age.. One must die since I already lived far too long.
Quran said that and started banging his head on the floor.
He cant overcome the shame and wants to make an extreme choice.
Ohhh, Old Dragon! D-dont do that! Old Dragon!
-When youre this old must die
P-please! Dont do that Stop! Being old is not a sin! Isnt it natural for the living? to grow old and get sick?
-I-its only natural to get old.. and sick?
Sure! After all, isnt a dragon a creature with a beating heart? So when you get older, its natural to grow old and sick. And Im not sure what the life expectancy of a dragon is Didnt you get old enough to live a long life?
-Thats right. Its not easy for even a dragon to exceed 9,000 years of age. I lived another 900 years, so I definitely lived a long life.
Then.. its not strange that dementia occurs.
-Thats right, but What am I going to do with a life like this? As long as I have dementia, I wont be able to take care of myself properly. So this is going to be a tough life for me.. better to cut oneself off.
I will take care of you!
-Huh?
I will see to you. So you dont suffer too much and dont blame yourself. Please dont even say youre going to end your life.
-Is that true? You want to take care of me, an old and sick dragon?
It wont be easy, but Ill do my best. So stop being sad.
-Hahaha.
please
Ottos words were sincere.
Seeing Quran in agony after having learned of having a Dementia reminded him of his grandmother who had passed away, and he couldnt help himself to look away and ignore it.
So calm down and talk to me step by step.
Then Quran answered.
-Who are you?
Otto wanted to bite his tongue.
* * *
In the end, after several hours of persuasion, Otto decided to attend the Quran
In the middle of the ongoing conversation it didnt work out because of Qurans dementia, but somehow they came to an agreement after hours of constant talking.
-Okay, In the future, dont feel burdened and indebted to me..
Well
Otto answered in a hoarse voice from exhaustion.
-It will never be easy for you, a human being, to take care of me. I will make it easy for you to take me.
Y-yes?
*Gurrurrr*
The dragons body shone brightly and began to shrink rapidly.
a few seconds after that.
It wont be difficult for you to take me in now.
The curly old dragon, who was about to end up in a coffin, smiled at Otto with a wrinkled face.
Oh? I didnt know you were able to transform?
Its not that difficult for me a dragon.
Ahhh
I might become a rampaging dragon and go wild, so I even sealed most of my power. So you can take care of me with peace of mind.
Great.
So Otto became the guardian of Quran, an old dragon with Dementia.
It was like carrying a huge burden all of a sudden, but Otto did not regret it one bit.
Ill do better.
Otto remembered his grandmother who died back then with Dementia and regretted the past.
Good job
Kairos praised Otto.
I didnt know you had such a special caring side.
W-what?
If you do something good, it will definitely come back. This is also fate, think of it as accumulating merit, to serve you well in the future.
Is that so?
Anway, the case with the dragon has finally been settled, and Otto moved to the place where the coffin of the great sage was kept in order to obtain his original purpose.
The Scripture of Reconciliation.
****
TL/N: Otto did several hours of Talk-no-jutsu to Quran
