EroMobuseka 126 – The Dragon’s true desire is to kill those who belittle them
I cut off the saber Leonard’s dad makes, cut off the mana attacks he release, cut of the spots he tries to escape to, and a light stroke. The blade, which had been stopped just short so many times is slowly making cuts on Leonard’s dad’s neck.
Strangely enough, both of our clothing were based on the same white color. However, my suit remained clean while Leonard’s dad’s suit is stained bright red with his own blood. Having let too much blood flow, his gait is getting precarious.
ーIf this goes on, he might die from blood loss.
Even Kiryu with strong life force has their limits. He’s already entered the danger zone. Only in that situation someone finally tried to stop the match.
「Hey now, Alec-dono. I see that you’re passionate about your guidance, but I believe it’s been too long. Our ladies are impressed」
「Adon-san. That sounds good, let’s leave it to that for the day」
Adon who had fully recovered his war injuries, regained his original delinquent handsome look and said with a tired look. They know that I’ve been holding back for longer, but this must be the right time.
「Halard-dono. Thank you for your guidance. As promised before the match, I’ll handle the cost of potions, please don’t hesitate to use them」
「……」
When Adon-san had him drink the potion, the wound on his neck healed quickly and the blood lost seem to have recovered. Even the face that’s pale..Oh? It didn’t recover that much, maybe he’s shivewring because he’s getting cold.
「Adon-san, I’d like to take Halard-dono to the waiting room, but can I greet people before that?」
「Yes. Very well. Leave it to me」
I placed Leonard’s dad next to him and Adon looks around the audience.
「My name is Adon. Adon Sunvolta. Most of you already know that」
「Adon…The lightning」 「That’s a knight」「He seems close to the knight」were the whispers coming. The title of Grand Knight is something unofficial, but it’s given to the knights who are as excellent as the Great Lord. Adon’s an amazing knight, considering he was fighting over the status of the great lord against Philip.
「Alec-dono has become a lord, but he’s still young and he’s learning a lot. It’s inevitable that the time he spends away from his territory is also long」
I’ve received a territory as a reward, but I can’t stay as a lord forever. I can’t just leave Lina-chan and the girls alone, and if we’re studying territory management, it’s best to learn it at the academy.
「I will be serving as the official in Alec’s absence. Please support Alec-dono’s activities. Let’s get along well, don’t you agree, Halard-dono?」
「Hahaha, yes, that’s right…」
I asked Adon-san to take care of my territory as someone I could entrust to it while I was absent. He quit being Philip-san’s knight, and is now officially working as my subordinate.
The surrounding lords have changed their expressions. Instead of being a lucky boy who just happened to take down the dwarf boss, they realized that it’s powerful lord who possess strength to nullify a Kiryu’s mana attacks, kill one-sidedly, and command greater knights.
「Please handle the rest」
I tried to get through the crowd and the spectators parted to make way. Normally, I’d be meeting the other lords to deepen our relationship but that can happen on the next opportunity. If they are going to look down on me, then it’s better to have them fear and avoid me.
「Alec-sama! That was a lovely fight」
Nasha-chan and the girls are waiting for me, so I’ll leave the diplomacy to Adon-san and relax.
□
Adon watches Alec leave at a calm pace.
(What an outrageous monster. It makes you realize how foolish you were for treating that a child)
It has nothing to do with him being a Zatsuryu or being young. Physical ability supported by immense mana, martial arts skills to freely manipulate weapons, and the destruction and amplification fo mana value through weapons made of divine iron.
How many Kiryu there can stop Alec with all of it combined? Seeing how easily a mid-tier lord Halard was made a blood-sacrifice, most of the lords must’ve chilled as if it was their fate. The best way to break the heads hardened by their sense of privilege is to show someone a real example.
(Moreover, it’s not just military power. He’s also blessed with both luck and talent)
The great mine, the land Alec claimed as his territory. It’s a source of abundant minerals worthy of it’s names, and there exists an inexhaustible ore vein where minerals recover over time no matter how much you dig.
As for the precious metals in the mine, the female dwarves are skilled at craftsmanship, so they can have them made within the territory. The splendor of the accessories Adrine and Anastasia wore at this party has already gained a reputation, and the fame of the dwarf-made details is increasing even more.
Furthermore, since there’s a wonderful hot spring, the Kiryu from the northern parts of the kingdom who learned of it’s existence will rise up and gather.
(It’s a treasure trove. Many would want to make it their own. Hwoever, to obtain the dwarven homeland (Gold), they must defeat the new lord (Fafnir) Of course, I won’t show any mercy)
The greedy dragon Alec, and the great knight Adon. Furthermore, they Anastasia shows how close they are at the party, and the Grand Duke Philip shows that he’s backing him. The excellent lord will immediately understand what will happen if you make an enemy out of him.
(This is a big chance for me!! I’ll govern the dwarf settlement as a magistrate, and then Mira will win over Alec through seduction and my influence will be unshakable)
A brilliant future is calling Adon. A future where he becomes Alec’s adoptive father and become the right hand man in his rule, wielding exceptional skill and gaining fame greater than Philip.
(Mira should be able to do it. She’s my cute daughter. Alec is definitely going to fall head over heels before Mira’s charm)
Adon believed that his proud daughter, Mira would succeed.
