Hone No Aru Yatsu – Chapter 21: Hone Chosen by the Stars Arc (End)

The next day

As soon as we got up, we started to brainstorm some more ideas. Although I don’t have a brain, I can still come up with ideas.

But no matter what, we couldn’t think of a sure way to kill the dragon. Thus we decided to prepare these following four:

– A sword

– A s.h.i.+eld

– Full body Armor

– and a ride to the mountain where the dragon is

I was thinking that perhaps I should borrow a horse, but thinking about it now, I don’t know how to ride a horse.

“Teehee.” I tried to stick out my tongue when saying this but I forgot that I don’t have a tongue.

Misery, who was tired from yesterday events was still asleep in the room.

Emily told me that now was the chance to go if I still wanted to go.

The people who were seeing me off were Emily, Marga and the Earl.

“Well then, I am off.” (Hone)

Emily started to laugh a bit when I said that.

“You really look reliable in the outfit.”

‘But… I will always be waiting for you,’ was what the smile she gave me said.

I got on the carriage.

This carriage did not have any walls or any roofs, but it did let me see the scenery much more clearly.

When the carriage started to move, I looked back and saw Emily running towards me and waving, Marga bowing, and the Earl looking at me silently with his hand together.

After pa.s.sing through the city gates and the outer wall gates, the carriage slowly sped up.

The wind must feel good at this speed but since I wearing armor my bones can’t feel it.

“Hey, how far is Nevillie?” (Hone)

Neville is the name of the mountains, and the coachman said that we would reach it in about half a day.

“Mister, I have the money for returning you safely to the town, do you want me to wait at there?” (Coachman)

Hmm, I wonder if should make him wait…nah.
