Dragon’s Bloodline

As though emerging from the bottom of a deep lake, her consciousness gradually surfaced.

As she awoke from her slumber, the existence known as Ria was being reconstructed.

Her senses returned. She clearly experienced her sense of touch.

(I.. can move?)

In the dark, she reached out. Something crisp broke, light flooded her eyes.

She could shift her body. From her fingertips to the tips of her toes.

She recalled that memory. Shed needed to cut off her leg. Did Lulu reattach it?

Still not entirely lucid, Ria wondered what happened to her as she got up.

She was sleeping on a bed in the nude. It was a cabin with a strong wooden aroma. There were black fragments from something on the bed, it seemed to be what had surrounded Ria.

(Where is this?)

Daylight streamed in from the wooden floor. If she were out of the dungeon, why was she in a cabin like this?

A change of clothes were left for Ria on top of the chair sitting next to the bed. There were boots left below it as well. All things she had given to Serge before the battle.

There were neatly folded underwear. On that subject, though she told Serge he didnt have to do something strange like that earnestly, he answered with a discouraged expression.

Nee-chan, Im not at the age where sexual desire comes out yet. Besides, Im just not interested in the contents.

Smiling while recalling that, Ria dressed. There were neither weapons nor armor. Neither was the magic bag there. They probably all melted in the giants stomach. There was the dagger with the seal.

Though her equipment felt very disheartening, Ria left the cabin.

Wow

Filled with light, a field brimming with flowers extended before her.

The sun was almost directly above, yet it shined with a gentle light. There were large trees spread out here and there, producing shade.

From the nearest tree came a figure running towards her.

Nee-chan~

It was Serge. Though he was running with a smile on his face, he was worried about Ria.

Thats good, you woke up.

And Maal?

Though she vigorously clapped the boy on the top of his head in an embrace, Ria worried about the other persons survival.

I conveyed the message to Maal. Ive been waiting for Nee-chan to hatch from the egg.

He said something that she couldnt ignore.

For the time being, after finishing her self introduction, Labyrinth spoke with a smile.

Being born as a princess was a great use of points~

Though that was a misunderstanding, it was easily corrected. Labyrinth had a Gift called Fairys Minds Eye and could use Identify on Ria.

Dragons Bloodline huh? Thats the same Gift Anaia had. Though it seems you have more skills than Anaia, you still havent drawn out the power of the Gift.

While casually saying momentous things, Labyrinth filled me in on information from after the Cyclops was defeated.

After Ria fainted, her body was immediately covered by a black shell. In front of the two other confused people, Labyrinth appeared.

Labyrinth said that she was the lord of the labyrinth, teleporting the two and the egg to this area.

Since it was a dragons egg according to Identify, she recommended to wait and see what happened. The two people agreed.

Before teleporting Maal to the surface and the egg to the bed, they received their rewards. After that, she had reminiscent talk of Japan and the like with Serge, watching him practice magic.

Reminisced about Japan? Even though its been a thousand years

Rias question was reasonable, though Serge already thought that at first. Due to reincarnating into this world, twenty-first century Japanese seemed to be scattered through the ages. When she heard what year Labyrinth died in, it was just a little before Ria.

I chose the Gift of Genesis Magic. Then by raising my level in the Great War a thousand years ago, my Gift sublimated into Labyrinth Creation. Since then, Ive always been training adventurers.

She didnt say explorers. When Labyrinth made this labyrinth, that title was more common.

Why train them?

It will be time for another Great War soon right? In preparation for that, Im raising the mankind sides strength.

However, she shook her head. It might have been too gentle of her to not allow casualties.

Though they wouldnt lose everything when they die, since she cultivated them at such great pains, she wanted it to be more intense. Though in the last one hundred years, only one person other than Rias had made it to the final floor.

By the way, what was that persons name?

Not telling. Its personal information. Well, I believe youll meet them naturally in the Great War.

Though she thought the Ogre King said the person was named Ars, confirming it didnt matter.

She forgot about it due to the reincarnation-related talk, there was something else important.

There was talk about getting a wish when you capture the labyrinth

By all means, dont hold back. So long as I am capable.

She pretty much confirmed it. Seeing this labyrinth, she could do considerable things.

In truth, I was a man in my previous life, but

You cant return to being a man? Thought Labyrinth, folding her arms and pondering the question.

This is the first time Ive heard of having a different sex than your previous life That aside, it is easy to become a man. It can be done with magic. Though you dont just want to look like a man, you want to have all functions of a man as well?

Ria nodded. Labyrinth had an apologetic look.

If thats it, it is possible. Though, since it requires your genes to be rewritten, youll have to start over again from a baby

Due to that, the wish is impossible. Is there anything else? If youre a warrior, are you not interested in amazing weapons?

Speaking of a weapon

In the fight against the Cyclops, I used all of my weapons, but I wonder if they could be fixed if possible?

Eh? Id do that much for free. Here.

When Labyrinth waved her hand, all of Rias armor and weapons appeared in front of her. Of course, that included the exploded katana.

It was a bonus that Carlos crushed and distorted armor was restored as well. The shield wasnt a magic item so it was okay.

Ah, the magic bag isnt there. Since its a magic item that uses a bit of power, that needs a wish.

By the way, what did Serge and Maal get?

When she asked, Serge proudly took out a thick grimoire.

In the grimoire was written all of the magic known by Labyrinth, including magic lost nowadays. Though he couldnt use it yet, it even had genesis magic, hed never let it go. It was under a special magic that made it so only Serge could read it.

Maal seemed to receive the ability to use magic. More accurately, it drew out her talent for magic. Having Fairy Eyes, Maal already had aptitude for spirit magic, so it manifested as that. For more information shed have to ask Maal.

Simply, I want to be stronger

In order to get stronger, this labyrinth is here. Though this is the ideal environment for strengthening, its impossible for it to happen instantly.

She had a point.

But Ria was still troubled. When the wish she wanted granted the most became impossible, she couldnt think of another one.

She was the princess of a country after all. If it was something that could be solved by money, she could manage it somehow.

How about a magic sword? Inexperienced nobles bring them in, there are a lot.

Unfortunately, she didnt excel much at handling swords. Even though her Swordplay Skill was high, she found katanas more manageable.

Katanas were a comparatively minor weapon in this world. There was complexity in its manufacturing process too and almost never existed as a magic weapon.

Though I want a katana, there probably arent many katanas better than this one.

It was the katana that the Ogre King gave her. But Labyrinth didnt understand the merits of katanas.

If you want a katana so much, how about I make one?

Seeing Rias devotion to katanas, Labyrinth proposed such a thing.

What was a katana? It wasnt something that could be made so easily. Ria knew it well from her previous life.

That is, with genesis magic. If its not a magic item, its pretty easy to make.

Labyrinth, I was given the chance to see many katanas referred to as famous in my previous life, but to be honest, the katanas of this world are almost nothing compared to the Wazamono.[TN:Wazamono]

Thats how it was. Even the katana the Ogre King gave her was incomparable to Nagasone Kotetsu. If she had Nagasone Kotetsu, that fight against the Cyclops would have been effortless.

If youve seen a lot of them, I believe youcould make more. The manufacturing method and manufacturing process, do you know them?

Of course. Not just once or twice, Ive actually seen them temper the blade.

It was to the point she could release a book about it.

Using genesis magic, you can ultimately manifest your own imagination. If you have your ideal katana inside yourself, you can make it.

If so, if thats true, it was definitely attractive.

I could divide a part of my ability, giving you a magic called Weapon Creation. At worst, you could produce the same katanas that youve seen. Ah, magic weapons are still something else though.

She could make an identical katana. That was sufficiently attractive.

Then lets go with that.

She readily nodded. Labyrinth placed her small hand on Rias forehead.

The ability will flow across for a moment. Be careful not to collapse.

Along with Labyrinths voice, she felt something warm flow into her.

It had the appearance of a flame.

Heating iron, the flame forged it.

It was a nostalgic thing. It was something she yearned for.

Together with the memories filling her mind, Ria was awarded a new ability.
