Chapter 11

A tiny hero

…………。

…………………。

Vaguely, my consciousness returned .

My body is painful all over . It’s heavy . If I slightly pay attention to my body, it’s covered by painful looking injuries all over .

I don’t want to do anything .

I’d like to sleep on the cooling earth of the forest the whole time already .

No good, I seem to be succumb to the pain and suffering .

My current state……At any rate, I ought to understand my current state .

What happened to Milia? What happened to me?

I directed my awareness before my eyes .

A grey wolf came into view .

Seeing that, I was convinced that I lost .

If perhaps, when I woke up there is no wolf and Milia is also safe……such an expectation is cut down with a single stroke like this .

It’s so, damn it, it’s your win .

Do as you like . It’s troublesome to stand up too .

Kill me quickly .

“ ”

Probably because my consciousness has not recovered, I do not understand what the grey wolf is howling .

However, without finishing me off uneventfully, the grey wolf disappears into the depths of the forest in a hurry .

Ah, what is it?

Which reminds me, there is a out of place feeling from my mouth since a while ago .

What have I been holding in my mouth all the time?

The power of my jaws is approaching its limit, and the item held in my mouth drops to the floor naturally .

It’s a bloodstained grey wolf .

[44 Exp obtained]

[Due to the skill called [Walking Egg : Lv–], additional 44 exp is obtained]

[ Level of [Baby dragon] increased from 22 to 23]

… . . Ah, it seems like I will evolve soon .

When I raise the neck that was even troublesome to move and try looking left and right, the portion of remains for 2 grey wolf rolls over .

Did I bring them down? These guys, I defeated them?

Even if I consider from the speed the level rose, it seems to be correct .

It’s consistent to think that I rampaged after losing half my consciousness when I was close to death just now .

That’s right, Milia……where is Milia?

Milia? Milia?

Ah……

I spot Milia who had fallen on the ground, and rush over .

She’s alive . Still alive .

Although her HP continues to be shaved off by bloodshed, she is still alive now .

Carrying her on my back, I started running, dragging my tattered body along .

I pulled out of the forest before long, and rows of raised soil comes into my vision .

Is that… . . a field? Then, is there a human habitation nearby?

In time, I made it in time .

It’s bad but because I do not have the strength to take a roundabout way, I stepped over the field and cut straight through it .

Whenever I took a step, I even felt the illusion similar to my body becoming light .

Something like a house came into sight .

I walked into the village while staggering .

As it’s at night, the figure of people are not readily found .

Milia doesn’t seem like she has such a long time .

She needs treatment even right now .

I raised a loud voice when I came to a place in the middle of the village .

“GUOOOOOO!”

Somebody, please help Milia!

Come out!

“GUOOOOOOOOOO!”

“GuuOOOOOOOOOO!”

I cried over and over again, pleading desperately .

And with a [Kyi] from behind, I heard the sound of door opening .

Good, Milia would be rescued with this .

And, I am already close to dying too .

Earning their trust through Milia somehow, I want to rest my body .

If it goes smoothly, I might remain in the village and abandon the life of the forest from today .

Learning [Gurisha language : Lv 1], mutual understanding should slowly be possible sooner or later if I am taught carefully .

Hunting with humans, I may be unexpectedly useful even if it’s fieldwork even just because of my strength .

I turn around towards where the sound was .

There was a man’s face peeking from the opened door with a half vigilant feeling .

「τέρας！」

Immediately following, an intense pain ran through my shoulder .

An arrow was stuck deeply .

The man who shot me, glared at me like that while preparing his bow .

Biting my lips, I stood up although my feet were trembling .

Is that so……that’s right, I am a dragon .

Then, there is no choice but to attack if a dragon walks to the middle of the village at night and howls while bringing a bloodied human along .

The man stop moving when our eyes meet .

He might be regretting for not defeating me in a blow .

Looking at the status, there is no big difference with Milia without skill .

The person seemed to understand too, that he couldn’t fight against a monster directly .

I dropped Milia in that place, and ran away from the village .

The man drops his bow, and the sound of his knees dropping is heard .

Surely, Milia will be saved with this .

This is all right . It’s good with this .

Anyway, I will look for a place that will allow my body to rest .

[Level of skill titled [Spirit of relief] went up from 3 to 4]
