Chapter 288: Going Ho, Finding the Maid, and Getting So Food
Actually, it wasn’t just Lucy who was almost scared to death. The other girls on Yulin were also nearly scared to death.
“Uwah…”
“I… I really actually rode a dragon…”
Lumia and lika were rather dizzy up where they were on the dragon’s back. It’s unknown if their brains simply haven’t caught up or if it’s because they were overexcited, but they both looked completely dazed.
“Yeah. We really did ride a dragon, and it’s that famous black dragon of Ataru at that.”
Vivian helped lika keep upright as she spoke reminiscently.
Diere was silently holding Lumia up, but she was also staring at Shien with an emotion that no one else understood.
As for Airi, she was instead the calst person there. After Yulin landed, she imdiately jumped off, completely nonplussed.
“Eh?
Lucy, who was about to charge up to Shien to demand answers, stopped for a mont at the sight.
Where did this little girl co from?
Also, why did she co out of the canyon with Shien and the others?
Plus, why did she feel like she can’t relax her guard when looking at the girl?
“A cute little girl holding a pillow?”
Lucy thought it over a bit. She keeps feeling like there’s sothing familiar about that, like she heard soone ntion soone like that before.
Lucy’s descent into thought made the female knights behind her sowhat misunderstand.
“Please step back, your highness.”
“Please be careful.”
“That’s the black dragon of Ataru after all.”
The female knights were under the impression that Lucy didn’t dare to approach Yulin, so they spoke such things guardedly. At the sa ti, they looked toward Shien and the others who got off the dragon with shock still remaining.
Those people actually ca out of the canyon riding the black dragon of Ataru. Could one of them have tad this high leveled black dragon?
That’s a dragon after all!
The creature known as the king of demonic beasts!
Every single dragon bears extrely strong pride, so they’re basically untamable. Even the master tar of the Kingdom could only ta wyverns, not true dragons, never mind a powerful dragon at over level 90.
This is a dragon who had dominated the Ataru Canyons for 400 whole years. A dragon that the Kingdom had given up on subjugating. Yet, now it may have been tad. How could anyone not be shocked at such news?
Just who managed to do such a thing?
Who could possibly have such abilities?
The female knights were both shock and uncomprehending.
As the person in question, Shien simply jumped off from Yulin’s head and landed on the ground without any concerns.
“Growl!”
Yulin let out a growl, giving an obedient impression from the tone.
“Good girl.”
Shien extended his hand, petted Yulin’s lowered head, and used the [Taming] skill to bring out magic power and slowly directed it into Yulin’s body through the hand he was using to pet her.
Yulin’s eyes squinted in comfort.
And seeing that scene, all the female knights’ hearts shook.
So it’s him!
He’s the one who tad the black dragon of Ataru!
All the knights directed their shocked gaze to Shien.
Even Lucy also finally ca back to herself.
“You… You tad this black dragon?”
Lucy let out a shocked and confused voice at the sight.
“Well? Amazing, right?”
Shien raised his eyebrows like he was showing off to Lucy.
“This isn’t a question of being amazing or not here!?” Lucy spoke in sowhat of a daze, “You have the [Taming] skill? What level is it? How was it able to even ta the black dragon of Ataru? Just what did you…”
“Stop, stop, stop! Where did so many questions co from?” Shien hurriedly stopped her and spoke grumpily at the flabbergasted Lucy, “Calm down a bit princess. The reality is already so, so you should first confirm and accept the reality. You can talk about the rest after that, alright?”
Hearing this, Vivian and the others showed a resigned expression from the side.
It’s because Shien had already said those words once, back when they also ended up flabbergasted upon seeing Yulin.
To think that not even the princess could be spared from getting lectured like that by that guy..
Lucy also realized this, so she sneakily gave Shien a glare before speaking up in an unfriendly tone.
“Just what had happened here?”
Lucy had already beco impatient to learn the truth here.
Whether it’s the matter of the black dragon of Ataru being tad or the matter of the National Knight order, Lucy wanted to properly do so interrogation for both.
It wasn’t just Lucy either. Vivian’s party also looked like they were kept in the dark as well.
Vivian and company still haven’t heard Shien give any sort of explanation for the matter with Yulin.
As for the matter with the National Knight Order, Vivian and her party might not have known anything about it, but they were utterly stunned with shock at the sight of the cratered wasteland over to the side.
Everyone had realized it that a lot of things seed to have happened over that single night yesterday.
As for what exactly happened, perhaps only Shien knows the whole of it.
Shien just shrugged though, before imdiately getting ready to explain everything to Lucy.
However, just then, a voice entered Shien’s ears via magic power.
“It’s best to not let the Kingdom know about the matter with Demon Lord Spawn or the Demon Refining ritual. If that happened, it could end up causing unexpected problems.”
Only Shien was able to hear those words.
The voice was quite familiar, so Shien recognized it imdiately, and his gaze shifted to the side in response to it.
There, Airi was caressing Yulin’s wing. She also looked back then, eting Shien’s gaze.
Natually, Airi had spoken those words just now.
Shien also knows why she said those words.
For one, both the Demon Lord Spawn and the Demon Refining ritual were stuff that ca from the demons. If humans found out about it, who knows what kind of issues that might cause, which may end up causing the demon race to be denounced.
For two, Airi had continuously claid that this matter was the sha of the demon race. It’s to the point where Shien only learned so of it from her mouth after entering the canyon. Jacinta was also unwilling to disclose this matter, which is why he moved in secret when abnormalities started cropping up around the Capital’s surrounding areas even despite the Kingdom’s suspicions.
Therefore, this matter should be one that the demons really do not want to be known by the mortal races or the gods, right?
Shien doesn’t really mind keeping this secret for Airi either.
After all, other than Lucy and Vivian’s party, there are also a lot of female knights here.
Therefore…
“I’ll tell you about this matter after we get back.” Shien changed the subject, “Right now, we only need to do two things for the ti being.”
“… What is it?” Lucy was silent for a mont before choosing to let the matter go. She instead rolled her eyes and asked Shien to continue.
Shien spoke without hesitation.
“The first matter is to quickly send people to seal off the canyon. There are a lot of disgusting monsters in there. If they end up running out, then things might get a bit troubleso.”
Those words made Lucy turn serious.
“Monsters?” Lucy really wanted to ask for more details, but in the end, she instead decided to swallow her questions and nodded, “Then what’s the second matter?”
The second matter is simple.
“Go ho.” Shien calmly stated.
“I’m hungry.”
With that, Shien turned around and got back on Yulin’s back.
And with Lucy in the lead, practically everyone who was seriously listening to Shien’s words nearly fell on their faces.
What the heck do you an by go ho!
What the heck do you an by you being hungry!
Gaaahh! I want to hit you!
Lucy and the others were on the verge of exploding.
Shien however didn’t care.
After all that had happened, there’s no way that he’ll be able to take it easy in the aftermath.
In that case, how’s he going to keep going if he doesn’t properly have so food and a bath?
Therefore, he’s going ho, finding the parents, and getting so food.
No, it should be going ho, finding the maid, and getting so food instead.
That’s what Shien wants to do the most right now.
