"Hey? Alicia! It scared me to death. It's really... No, why did you transform so fast this time? And how did you put on these clothes?"
I put away the holy light ball and stared at the other party in confusion and asked.
"Miss, actually we transform into human form so quickly. It was so slow last time because of the requirements of the ceremony. It doesn't mean that we can't transform quickly. As for this set of clothes, I don't know why I can change with Gu. Anyway, three
The lady told me that I don’t have to worry about not having any clothes after my transformation.”
It turns out that the clothes given to her are also goddess-like things that read as clothes and write as skin... By the way, this dragon maid can't be fake, right?
"come here."
I nodded to her, and I wasn't worried at all about what if she turned out to be a bad guy and attacked me. What a joke, I've died twice, would I still be afraid of any attacks?
"Okay, young lady, I'm here alone."
The dragon maid walked up to me obediently.
"Hmm...this smell is definitely that of Alicia. I'm worried that you turned into some other monster~"
I sniffed her chest vigorously to confirm that this royal sister was the real person.
"You don't have to worry about this, Miss Third. Our dragon clan is protected by the gods, and no evil thing can disguise itself as us. If you see a giant dragon, then she must be a giant dragon." Dragon Maid
He said in a calm tone.
"Okay... you came just in time, let's go back quickly. This road is so eerie, I'm scared to be alone." I held the dragon maid's hand and said.
"...Yes, let's go quickly, Miss."
The dragon maid's answer was a little slow for some reason. I looked at her cold face and felt that she seemed a little nervous?
"What's wrong with you? Are you nervous?"
"No... no, I'm not nervous, I'm just a little uncomfortable, young lady."
The dragon maid's words were even more stuck. I could feel her body temperature rising through her gloves~ This guy, isn't he also a lily? Let me go?
"Are you... shy because I held your hand?"
I deliberately got close to her face, narrowed my eyes and stared at her and asked.
The dragon maid did not dare to look directly into my eyes, but kept scanning the surrounding scenery with her eyes: "No... No, Miss, I really feel uncomfortable. The environment here makes me feel uncomfortable, very
It’s an uncomfortable feeling. I feel like something is not right about this area, so it’s better for us to leave as soon as possible.”
Huh? Is that the reason?
"Isn't it right? Isn't your home on the mountain over there? You actually feel uncomfortable near your home?"
"Miss, Gu has been feeling very irritable recently. I thought that this uneasiness was caused by those humans digging into the mountains to extract rocks, but now I feel it carefully, it doesn't seem to be the case. There seems to be some kind of disturbance in Gu's territory.
The bad change is that the environment here makes me feel uncomfortable."
The vigilant eyes of the dragon maid were constantly scanning the surroundings like a radar. Her look made me immediately believe what she said.
"The environment makes you uncomfortable? Is it caused by the pollution caused by smelting ore here?"
"Miss, you are joking. Gu is a black dragon born in magma. Things like sulfur and poisonous smoke will not hurt Gu. There is something else that makes Gu feel uncomfortable, but Gu doesn't know what it is.
What. Gu feels that everything around him is hostile to Gu, and has become different from before... You are right to say that it is contaminated, but this pollution is not caused by polluting elements, but some kind of... indescribable
Evil force."
"Hey~! Don't be so ridiculous! Look at the beautiful mountains and clear waters around here, how can there be any evil force! Aren't those polluted areas supposed to be dark with bones everywhere!"
My heart trembled, and I couldn't help but hug the dragon maid's arm tightly.
"Miss... Miss! You hugged her too tightly!" the dragon maid said in a panic. Yes, her tone was panic.
"It's not like you said those things to scare me!"
"The arm is going to be broken! It's going to be broken, Miss!"
"Ah! I seem to have tried too hard! Sorry, sorry! By the way, you are a black dragon, why are you so fragile?"
I let go of the dragon maid's arm and rubbed her gently while scolding her.
"That's because, Miss, you are too powerful..." the dragon maid replied in a weak voice.
"Oh, how can you be so weak as a black dragon! How can I rely on you like this! Be tougher!" I slapped the dragon maid on the butt.
"I'm sorry, young lady, it was Gu Da who made a fuss, and Gu became hard now."
After the dragon maid finished speaking, I immediately felt that the jade arm in my hand became tight... no, it should be said that it turned into a steel pipe!
"What...are you doing?" I looked at the dragon maid with a blank expression.
"Gu Jiang's skin has been hardened to the strength of dragon scales. Didn't you make Gu become stronger?"
"No...that's just a description, alas..."
"I'm sorry, miss, I don't understand very well."
"Of course you don't understand. This is a cultural difference across the world~ Forget it, let's go back quickly! You said such evil things about this place, I don't want to stay any longer!"
"Okay, young lady. But Gu also wants to tell you that actually the mining area also makes Gu feel uncomfortable. Although the degree is not as strong as here, it is obvious that there is also a polluted area."
"...Olysia."
"Alone."
"Go back immediately and leave with Ellie and Pachi! We don't want any more of these evil mines!"
"But the eldest lady..."
"Nothing! This is your hometown. You have said so, so I trust your judgment! Isn't it just a mine? At worst, one will be built specifically for Hutt!"
"Ah?" The dragon maid obviously didn't understand what I was saying.
"Oh no nonsense, let's go back quickly! Alicia, turn into a dragon now and take me back!"
Because the flying skill is locked (actually it has never been unlocked), I can only ask the Dragon Maid.
"Miss, you can actually fly without turning into a dragon."
"Ah? Really? Then how can I ride you?" I blurted out and asked.
"You can...let Gu Hu hold you and fly..."
The dragon maid's voice became weaker again. What on earth is this guy thinking?
"Okay, hurry up!"
I stopped and moved aside, waiting for the dragon maid to take off and take me with her.
"Shua~~~!"
The huge black wings suddenly spread out from the dragon maid's back, looking extremely evil under the dim moonlight. I know that the black dragons in this world are decent characters, but they really look like demons like this~
"The moon is out~ It's just right, you can hug me and fly~"
"Okay, ma'am."
The dragon maid hugged me with a somewhat slow movement. After a moment of pause, she changed to a position where she put her arms through my armpits. Then, she flapped her wings gently and soared into the sky.
"Wow wow wow~~~! Your thrust is a bit strong!"
Being afraid of heights, I immediately exclaimed, and then I realized what a stupid idea it was to let her take me flying.
"Are you saying that Gu Fei is fast? Gu is very confident in his speed."
The dragon maid said in my ear. Because there was a magic barrier nearby, we were not messed up by the wind.
"By the way, do you still use magic power to push forward directly?"
