Chapter 254: End of the Battle
Chapter 254: End of the Battle
After defeating the Founding Dragon I took Nagini and her sister back to my house to treat them.
The treatment continued until the sun had nearly set and somehow a large group of acquaintances had gathered here…
「——and so that’s what happened.」
「I thought I’d sensed an enormous explosion of magic power to the south…..I wanted to go too!!!! I wanted to be there Hesty!!」
「Ahh, I sensed enough power to shock me awake too…it must’ve been hard Hesty~」
Karen and Ramiyuros said. They seemed to have sensed the battle that took place.
「I was wondering what the emergency contact from the Fort City was…huh, it was something incredible. I’ll have to ask you to get into contact later Dianeia-sama.」
「Umu, I’ll make sure to do so Knight Captain. Once the dinner meeting is over I’ll make sure to deal with various things.」
Even the Knight Captain had arrived from the city.
In order to celebrate Nagini rescuing her sister we were having a peaceful dinner out in the garden, but before I knew it we had gathered quite a lot of people. It became a banquet and information exchange before I realized it.
However, just by listening in on the information exchange it seemed like the matter this time had caused quite the unrest around the area…I thought when…
「n, thanks to you, this ended fairly peacefully…but it’s no wonder, things are in an uproar. If the Founding Dragon, had escaped and gone, on a rampage, it would be an unprecedented, disaster.」
Hesty seemed to read my mind as she explained the matter to me.
I was grateful she explained things so well.
「Master~ I’ve finished treating Nagini-chan and her sister. I gave them new clothes so they should be fine~」
Sakura said as she emerged from the house waving her hand.
Looking behind her I could see Nagini following…
「Teacher…I’m sorry for all the trouble I caused you ssu. Also thank you for everything you’ve done ssu.」
Nagini said as she stepped in front of me and bowed.
「Nah, don’t worry about it. I said I’d watch over you so I did just that.」
「Ahaha….I feel like you did more than that….but thank you ssu.」
Nagini said and quickly wiped the tears from her eyes as she took a deep breath.
「n….leaving my apologies aside…I should introduce my sister to you.」
「Ahh, so she woke up?」
She had been brought into my house while still asleep, and while they were being treated she apparently woke up.
「Yes ssu. ——to, Dora-ane, come on out.」
Nagini said and stepped aside. I then saw a girl who looked nigh identical to her appear.
Her height and appearance were very similar, but her hair color and eye color were slightly different. Also she seemed more adult-like.
The girl called Dora came before me and knelt down.
「It is a joy to meet you. This lowly one’s name is Dora. It is my greatest pleasure to make your acquaintance. I would be most happy for our relationship to last far into the future.」
She made an extremely polite greeting as she bowed on the floor with three fingers of each hand pressed down in front of her.
She approached me…but it was more like she was super close to me.
「Uh? It’s our first meeting right? Aren’t you…a little too close?」
This was clearly the first time we had met yet she was practically stuck to me. I wasn’t the only one who seemed confused by this.
「T-that’s right ssu! What’s going on Dora-ane! You never take this kind of attitude when meeting someone for the first time…you’re usually much more cautious!」
Nagini was panicking a bit.
In accordance with her adult-like atmosphere she acted like an adult with great politeness. But it seemed that this girl was acting different from usual based on Nagini’s reaction.
「C-could it be…that this is an after-effect of the Founding Dragon’s spirit ssu…!?」
As Nagini panicked over her sister’s change in attitude, Dora simply smiled and shook her head.
「It’s no such thing Nagini-chan. More accurately this is not my first meeting with Daichi-san after all.」
「Hm? Did we meet somewhere before?」
I didn’t remember that at all. As I was thinking back Dora answered me.
「Of course. As I was sleeping the connection between me and Nagini-chan showed me everything as a dream.」
「Hm? You mean?」
「The two of us are twin dragons, even while sleeping we are connected by magic. So even as a dream I was able to experience what Nagini went through.」
It was an explanation that both did and didn’t make sense but…
「In short….you’re saying that the time I spent with Nagini, I also spent with you?」
「That is the simple explanation, yes.」
「So she says, but you didn’t know Nagini?」
「T-this is the first time I’ve heard of it ssu…..」
Nagini stood there dumbfounded.
「Well, because of that….I know that Daichi-san saved us, is reliable, and has looked after us well….more accurately it runs in the direction of adoration from our side. As our Master and otherwise I hope for a long and fruitful relationship.」
Dora said and clung to me. Upon seeing that Nagini panicked again.
PICTURE
「W-wait, Master is my Master ssuyo!?」
「That’s right. Since he’s your Master then it also stands to reason that he is mine as well right?」
「Wai-, that’s no fair Dora-ane ssu!!」
It seems that Dora was acting far more lively than she usually would. It also looked that despite her troubled face, Nagini was much happier now that her sister was here with her.
This was surely what Nagini acted like normally.
「Nagini-chan. Let’s stop playing around for a moment and get to the main topic.」
「Ah, th-that’s right Dora-ane ssu.」
The twin dragons regrouped and knelt before me properly. Then the two of them looked at me seriously.
「With the defeat and destruction of the Founding Dragon, the two of us are the provisional supervisors of the Dragon Country.」
「However, from our point of view as the one who defeated the Founding Dragon, you have the most say in what happens going forward Master. Please do as you see fit ssu.」
「…..hm?」
What the heck are these two saying so suddenly?
「Umm, even if you give me the rights to the country or the land…I don’t really have any interest in it, so I think it best if you two simply act as the supervisors….」
I said and the two sisters looked at each other before bowing.
「We hear and obey. If that is what you wish for Master, then simply ask us if you ever need anything.」
「Yes. Even if there’s nothing on the land, you can exercise or take a nice walk. We will watch over it so you may make use of it at any time.」
「Okay then, I’ll leave it to you. Does this bring the matter to an end?」
「Indeed ssu. We had to bring it up at least. This should end our matter ssu.」
「I see. Then now it’s my turn.」
「Your turn ssu?」
Nagini tilted her head. Ah, now that I thought about it, the two of them hadn’t been told the purpose of the dinner party.
「Ahh…..the food today was prepared in celebration of Nagini achieving her goals and Dora recovering from her problems. Sakura and Dianeia are responsible for the spread we have here.」
That’s right. The garden had plenty of food and drinks set out for celebration.
「The two of you can eat and drink as you please.」
The issue they had to overcome was odd, but it was an accomplishment nonetheless.
As I finished speaking Nagini and Dora looked at me and cried out.
「….thank you very much Master!」
「Nagini and I will properly enjoy the meal Daichi-san.」
The two said with bright and joyous faces.
