Koko wa Ore ni Makasete Saki ni Ike to Itte kara 10 Nen ga Tattara Densetsu ni Natteita Chapter 138

Chapter 138 - Ancient Ruins Protection Committee

Ancient Ruins Protection Committee

There was a possibility that the dark ones were using more than just the machines in dragon ruins.

They might even be using their magic.

“It seems unbelievable… But could it be that there is a dragon who is helping them?”

“Locke, what are you saying? We dragons are very proud. There is no way that we would do such a thing.”

Kathe said. But there were many types among a single group.

Perhaps there were those who did want to help the dark ones.

Eric looked very serious.

“I don’t like thinking about it, but there may even be humans who are helping them.”

It was not out of the realm of possibility.

And so it was something that we had to be wary of.

Not only that, but whoever they were, they were likely in the capital.

Eric’s Privy Council was in the middle of investigating this.

Kathe looked surprised at Eric’s words.

Her breathing became hard and wind started to blow in the room.

“No! Aren’t dark ones and humans mortal enemies?”

“We are.”

“Right? You agree too, don’t you, Locke? A world ruled by the dark ones will be a world where humans are used for food!”

“I agree with you…”

“See.”

“Still, the possibility is still there. And it’s quite high. That is why we are so troubled.”

“…Are you sure?”

“Unfortunately, yes.”

“I see…”

Kathe looked as if she could not believe it.

She was not used to thinking of such things.

And to be honest, there did not seem to be any logical explanation for why humans would help the dark ones.

“Still, aren’t dragons wiser than us humans? Surely there are no dragons who would do such a thing?”

“Yo-you think so? Goran?”

“Aye. Besides, dragons are also much fewer in number.”

“What does that have to do with it?”

“A lot. The larger the number, the higher the possibility of there being strange types.”

“Oh, I see. You may be right.”

Kathe said grimly. Then she took a sip of tea from her barrel.

I also drank some tea from my bowl.

It really was quite delicious.

Then Eric sat up straight and said,

“Kathe, uh, Miss Kathe.”

“Wh-what is it, Eric? No, Mister Eric.”

Kathe said frantically.

Not that that was much of an excuse to start copying the way Eric talked.

Eric pretended to not notice as he continued.

“Friend of Locke. I have a request to make. Not as Eric, but as King Eric Mendilibar of the Mendilibar Kingdom.”

“Oh, Oh. Then I shall hear it, not as Kathe, friend of Locke, but Kathe Celeste, Ruler of the Wind Dragons.”

“Hm? Ruler of the Wind Dragons?”

I had never heard Kathe say anything about that before.

However, Eric continued.

“I would like for the Kingdom of Mendilibar to form an alliance with the dragons. What do you think?”

“Hmmm. Indeed. I cannot speak for those who are not wind dragons…”

“So you can still make decisions for the wind dragons then…”

I muttered. And Kathe said seriously,

“No, even then, I must discuss it with my father and grandfather… But they would not object.”

“I see. Thank you. Even if this alliance is not possible, we would like to stay on good terms with you.”

“Yes. I think so too!”

Kathe said as her tail slapped the floor heavily.

Kathe was a huge dragon now. And the sound was deafening.

I made a suggestion.

“I agree with this alliance, but perhaps it would be better if it wasn’t made public?”

“Why?”

“Because as we were discussing, there is a possibility that there are those in the city who are connected to the dark ones.”

“I see. It will be harder for the enemy to react if it is a secret alliance. What do you think, Eric?”

“Yes. That would be better.”

Kathe folded her arms.

“What is it?”

“Oh, I was just thinking. We will have to think of a name for this alliance.”

“I do not think that we have to?”

“What? No, it is very important.”

Maybe it was important for dragons. Then she should do as she liked.

After thinking for a while, Kathe smashed her tail on the floor again.

“Alright, how about the Ancient Ruins Protection Committee?”

“I don’t mind.”

Eric said with a smile.

I couldn’t tell if it was because he didn’t care or actually really like it.

“Alright, then. It is decided. I will make an organization chart later!”

“Thank you.”

So saying, Eric and Kathe shook hands. It was a handshake between a human and a giant dragon.

So it was really just Eric grabbing the tip of one of her claws.

Still, Kathe seemed incredibly happy.

And so I asked her,

“Kathe, you are the ruler of the wind dragons?”

“Yes, why do you ask?”

“Why didn’t you tell me before?”

“You never asked.”

“But…”

“Announcing it when no one has asked? How could I do something so embarrassing?”

“I understand that.”

Said Eric. I guess it was a king thing.

“But there is nothing embarrassing about it, is there? It is a great occupation. You are working for the people.”

“And yet you were hiding the fact that you were Ruck, the Hero.”

“But that was…”

“You became the Great Philosopher, Our Saviour and Great High Sorcerer by saving the people, didn’t you? You should not be embarrassed about that.”

Well, I couldn’t argue with that.

“Well, I am also Grand Duke. That could cause political strife…”

“Still, that is nothing compared to being a king.”

“…That’s true.”

“Hehe.”

Kathe looked very smug.

“Looks like you lost this one, Ruck.”

Goran said with a boisterous laugh.

The Hero’s party was attacked by a large group of powerful devils. The party will no doubt be annihilated if this were to go on. One member of the party, the strongest mage, Rakku, decided to stop the enemies in their tracks. 「Leave it to me here and go!」 「But……」 「Hey, I’ll catch up immediately, alright?」 Rakku mindlessly defeated the enemies, over and over again. Using his special skill, Learning, Rakku learned the devils’ magic. As he studied and utilised the devils’ abilities such as Drain Touch, he continued fighting, without rest nor sleep. The devils got stronger and stronger, but Rakku too rapidly grew. Rakku battled for 10 years, until no devils came at him. Rakku returned to the capital, and was surprised. His own name became the currency, and a gigantic statue of him, albeit fairly beautified, was erected. Due to him relentlessly absorbing the vitality of the devils, he had become young again. An appearance unfitting of his age. Godly abilities. 「I stand out too much」 Rakku concealed his true identity, and decided to pretend being a novice adventurer. Rakku, disguising as a F-rank warrior despite being an S-rank mage. His adventure in this now peaceful (?) world starts now!
