Chapter 234: Preparing an Automatic Training Environment
?P-please honor this request ssu!?
Nagini begged and bowed with the same spirit as a dogeza.
But perhaps she had done it too forcefully….
?Uguueeee……?
Her face turned pale once more.
?For now just calm down Nagini. You were staggering and dizzy…you can’t just move so quickly. Just go lie down on the bench.?
?U-uu, I-I’m sorry ssu….?
I had Nagini lie down on the bench as I looked at Hesty who was drawing closer.
?Hey Hesty. Speaking of training and such…I’m not really the kind of person who can provide that kind of thing. Can you take over in my stead? I think you’re the best out of anyone here at taking care of people like this.?
I said but Hesty responded slowly after thinking a bit.
?n….I may be, one of the best, teachers amongst Dragon Kings…but I’m not good, at increasing strength.?
?Hm? What do you mean??
?I’m able to teach, people how to make magic tools. But, that doesn’t have much relation with getting stronger. It was the same, when I raised Anne up. At the very least I wouldn’t, be good for, training. I’m incompatible with, Nagini’s goals.?
?I see……in that case Karen would be the most suited in this situation.?
She was training the Princess after all. Wouldn’t it be fine if she just watched over Nagini together with her? Or so I thought…
?Daichi-dono…that might be impossible. Karen-dono has returned with my little sister to the Royal Capital.?
Dianeia quickly informed me.
?Eh seriously? Will they not be coming back??
?Well, they were saying that they wanted to come visit you soon Daichi-dono so I doubt they’ll stay away for long…but I have no idea how long that will be.?
?So Karen’s not available either…….Anne and Manaril have their own jobs as well.?
?By the way, even if you ask Ramiyuros, she’s not suited, to teaching. Look for another, candidate.?
Hesty quickly added. It seems like it’ll be hard to find a Master amongst the Dragon Kings…
?Woah….as expected of the ?Ruler of Dragon Kings?-sama…..knowing all of these Dragon Kings and calling them so casually ssu…?
Nagini voiced her admiration as she lay sprawled on the bench.
?Well, they’re my friends. In fact it’s about time you stop calling me ?Ruler? and such. I have a proper name, Daichi.?
?Ah, ussu. Roger that Daichi-sama.?
?The -sama isn’t needed but that’s fine too. Anyways…what shall we do??
It looks like I won’t find any trainers amongst the dragons…but in that case her goal will remain unfulfilled.
It seems she’s come from a long ways away and I’d feel bad if she left empty handed. It made me want to find something for her.
?n, I have an idea. Remaining near this house and in the, environs of, Prussia could be, training in itself.?
Hesty proposed.
?Just living around Prussia is training? What do you mean??
?n, just looking at her you can see….Nagini is exhausted, just from staying here. She can’t handle, the magic power, from this house and that, can be utilized.?
I followed Hesty’s gaze and looked at her.
?haa……..haaaa…..?
She was lying on the bench panting laboriously.
Her complexion was better than before, but it appeared like she still wasn’t used to the magic around here.
?It might be, dangerous to train here, specifically……but if she spends, time in these areas soaked with magic, her body can be strengthened.?
?I see. As expected of Hesty-sensei, how well-informed……but was Prussia a land with such strong magic power??
?n~, before it might not have been…..but now thanks to you it’s, become more powerful.?
?Eh??
Something new just popped out. What does this mean?
I looked at Hesty with confusion and she passed it over to Dianeia.
?Dianeia, you should know better, than I would. Explain please.?
?Y-yes of course. It is as Hesty-dono said. It was the result of a recent investigation but…..since Daichi-dono arrived the environs and Knights of Prussia have increased in fighting strength and magic power.?
?Hm? Isn’t that just the results of the knights’ training??
?Well…certainly they’ve increased their training….but it utilized your power Daichi-dono. After all, it wasn’t just the Knights or Witch Squad that saw improvement, but everyone in town who trained.?
?Is that proof of the land itself getting stronger??
I asked and both Hesty and Dianeia nodded.
?You’ve done various things in the area surrounding here right Daichi-dono? Like changing the terrain and increasing the magic concentration in the land at incredible speeds.?
?The former wasn’t entirely on purpose and the latter is something I don’t remember doing.?
?W-well for those reasons after you arrived the magic power concentration of Prussia and its surroundings have been increasing at remarkable speeds. When people live in such conditions for long periods they begin to adjust naturally.?
I see. Now I understand what they’re saying.
?In short this is all because my house’s magic is soaking through the surroundings.?
?n, that’s right. If you, live daily in, this type of environment your, body will adapt. Even just by living in, the town there will be a, strengthening effect. It’s just like, if you climb a high mountain, and live there, you might suffer, but eventually you’ll become acclimatized.?
?It means that places where Daichi-dono has stayed for a longer amount of time or where he lives will become good training grounds.?
?I’m not some kind of high-altitude training area…?
Well, now I’ve learned that the places that are affected by my house have an improved environment for such things, that I could accept.
?Then if I live in a place like this I can get stronger….strong…..ugueeee…..?
Nagini suddenly got up from the bench with excitement and immediately barfed again.
This child has plenty of motivation…but it seems like she doesn’t understand the limits of her own body well enough.
?n~, I believe, that Nagini’s current abilities make living here impossible, for now. Her mind and body, will break before she gets, stronger.?
?Hiii!?
Hesty’s explanation scared Nagini.
She said such a terrifying thing so casually.
Well it’d be best to use such grim statements to prevent her from trying to hard and breaking herself.
Plus if she just stood around vomiting all over my property it’d be a problem.
?Nagini, I think you should first start, with living in this forest, or the town first…what do you think??
After hearing the explanations Nagini slowly nodded.
?U-umm……then I think I’d like to live closer, to town first, I think ssu.?
?So she says Dianeia. Could I leave her housing to you??
?Yes of course! I’ll prepare her a nice place to stay. There’s no loss in gaining the gratitude of a Dragon King.?
?I’m grateful ssu……..! I’ll be in your care ssu…! Ah…but I don’t have much on hand so please don’t make the rent too high please ssu.?
As I watched their rent negotiations I thought to myself that Nagini was very much like a human for a Dragon King.
Her height wasn’t much different from Hesty’s and I found that a bit amusing. I looked at them in comparison and…
?n~, what??
She looked at me in response.
?Well, I started thinking when I look at you and Ramiyuros…Dragon Kings really have different dispositions and it’s quite amusing.?
?Well, there are individual differences. I feel a bit, complex at being called, amusing though.?
Hesty said with a wry smile.
And so my surroundings gained another Dragon King.
