Chapter 127 He Might Be the Most Kingly of Them All (2/2)
The view above his head certainly is quite the picturesque scenery.
The majestic nature spreading out below me looks as if I was looking down from the top of a mountain, unconsciously making me overwhelmed.
I didn’t notice it from below, but there was a large number of dragons flying around Magnawell-san, making me see why he was rightly called the King of Dragons.

Thereupon, Magnawell-san started walking. His gait looked quite slow but…… To begin with, with his tremendous size, each of his steps is outrageously large, making the scenery quickly pass by.
[……The Demon Realm is a really beautiful place.]
“Is this your first time seeing the Demon Realm? Miyama Kaito.”
[Yes, it’s amazing.]
As I unconsciously voiced out my impressions as I looked at the beautiful greenery of this vast prairie, Magnawell-san reacted.
“That’s right, the land around here has changed a lot over the years…… about 20,000 years ago, that area used to be……”
“……So, he’s started huh…… Kaito-san. Magnawell’s story of the past would take a long time.”
[……Ehh?]
When Magnawell-san began to speak in a somewhat nostalgic tone, Lillywood-san muttered with a sigh.
Errr, what is this…… I guess he’s like those old men who like to tell stories huh? If that’s so, it really might take us a while for him to finish.

“……And so, the beings living in that area have changed.”
[I see, then, the greenery in this area is really influenced by Lillywood-san’s presence here huh.]
“Umu, that is so, it is the earth that is…… Hmmm? We can finally see it huh.”
[Eh? Whoa!?]
And then, Magnawell-san’s stories were really long, and we ended up talking about the past along the way.
Nearly an hour into the storytelling, I was starting to feel tired of the story……. But right just in time, I saw the land covered in ice out of the corner of my eye.
I’ve never been to those places before, but I feel like it would be like the North Pole or the South Pole, as the land covered in ice is beautiful, yet it somehow makes me feel lonely.
I mean, it really looks like it’s cold here…… Eh? Wouldn’t I freeze to death here wearing thin clothes……
“It’s alright. Kaito-san, you have Shallow Vernal-sama’s blessing.”
[A- Ahh, I see……]

Apparently, Shiro-san’s blessing will keep the cold out too…… Seriously, it seems like my blessing has just about everything huh……
As I was exchanging such words with Lillywood-san, Magnawell-san muttered as if he found something strange.
“……What is this? Is something wrong with that Isis fellow? The magic power of death around her has become really thin……”
“It’s the other way around. Isis is in an incredibly good mood right now……. She has been like that for hours, feeling happy as she restlessly waited for Kaito-san’s arrival.”
“Fumu, she really likes him huh.”
“Yes, that is so……”
It seems that Isis-san was looking forward to today, and I was somewhat happy and embarrassed at the same time when I heard that.
And just when we were near the icy land, Magnawell-san slowly stopped.
“……This is as far as I can go. If I take another step forward, the ice on that patch of ground will crack.”
“You’re right.”

Nodding at Magnawell-san’s words, Lillywood-san levitates me again and lowers me to the ground, before looking back at Magnawell-san.
“Thank you very much. Magnawell.”
[Thank you very much. I’ve learned a lot from your stories.]
“Hohoho, you’re quite the diligent one huh. I see why the other members of the Six Kings like you, you’re a pleasant young man.”
Magnawell-san smiles somewhat happily as I thank him.
“Alright, youngster. I’ll give you an allowance.”
[……Huh?]
Then, just like a grandfather who has just met his grandson, he moved his face…… and placed in front of me an enormous scale that could easily have been over five meters high.
“It’s my scale, you can sell it or make it into armor, you’re free to do whatever you want with it.”
[Ah, errr, thank you.]

“That’s great. Kaito-san, with Magnawell’s scale, you could easily build a castle or two if you sold it.”
[ ! ? ! ? ]
He just gave me something extraordinary!? I- Indeed, just hearing that this is called a “Dragon King’s Scale” makes it feel like an extraordinary object.
I- I honestly want to politely refuse, but it would be rude not to accept it here, so I thanked him and put it away in the magic box.
“Miyama Kaito, next time you’re around south, you should come to my home. I’ll be able to tell you many more stories.”
[Y- Yes. If I have the opportunity, I’d love to come.]
“Umu. Farewell, and give my regards to Isis.”
Happily smiling one more, Magnawell-san slowly moved his body…… and along with the earth rumbling once again, he left.
Dear Mom, Dad——- Generally speaking, Magnawell-san is humongous, with a kingly dignity, and a wealth of knowledge that showed the long years he lived. How should I say this, among the Six Kings I’ve met, in a way—— he might be the most kingly of them all.

Isis: “Kaito is coming…… he’s coming soon…… I want to pick him up…… but…… I also want to say…… welcome…… I can’t wait to meet Kaito…… Kaito…… Kaito……”
…and she’s been repeating this for several hours now.
