「Please excuseanyone know that I was here Oh Chaos Dragon, my name is Kyle, and I thank you fro the life ofbriefly with Nectar and exchanging infor man introduced himself

Here and there in their conversation I happened to overhear such words like 'oath' and 'language' spoken in ancient dialect, so I also told him that Nectar entered in a contract withman, and so they also spoke about the content of his oath

Not only that, but Nectar also spoke slowly, explaining things in suchmy nickname, for exaician one day

「Thanks to you I could be with Nectar Thank you veryokay?」

「Ah, yeah It was only a scratch …… Oi, Nectar Are you really sure this is the black Chaos Dragon? He doesn't feel like it at all」

「Like Lava said, when he wason its own and intercepted you without second thought I myself don't understand that all too well, but it seems like a defense mechanism that was intended to scare the intruders away, but instead it leaves some number of dead people」

「……Seriously What the hell was our country even thinking?」

Then he told hi froed on

Although it sees, since he was Nectar's friend I proposed the infor Nectar to interpret for me, I took it upon myself to explain properly

From what he said, it seems that his retarded (no, seriously, it's OK) country had a constant proble rid of the evil spirits because of the frequent attacks of the beasts andrid of the to ons inhis eyes closed and nodding his head froot it, at least I think so There is still much that I sih」

Still, I was surprised that he si once

Like, 'What kind of nonsense is this!?' or 'There's no way for that to be true!' I was seriously hoping for so like that

「Do you seriously believe ht as well be soether with on, so please stop saying things like that about yourself!」

「Oh, umm, sorry about that I understand, so please interpret that for et it」

Kyle see with reverence at so like , he rather kept the words to hiician who's affiliated with the ical power in this place was extraordinary In addition, since the appearance of black Chaos Dragon ten years ago, I was looking through the archives to find as on I possibly could Because it is the stuff of legends, there were many false statements, but all in all it was pretty funny Everywhere where the Dragons were present tends to be rich and prosperous, but before their arrival the beasts and deical poas severely depleted Before the Dragons, those places were not suitable for any forons are taking the s, humans alone would not be able to make them suitable for habitation and decrease the number of monsters over the course of 10 years alone But it is still open to debate whether or not this has soon, or siical powers of the land That soon was speaking of, correct?」

It was nothing short of a splendid logical deduction I wanted to applaud it, but then I suddenly noticed that soht

Wait a second, did he said 'for ten years'?

It was ten years since Nectar entered the laboratory at the Royal Palace and began his servitude

I don't kno long Magic School can be, but I a the course of your education you would at least twice see the battlefield, and it would be safe to assume that the people who finished it would be at the very least 30 years old

「…… Uain?」

「My age? I began my education pretty early, so I should be around 40 years old What about you, Kyle? You should be slightly older thanhis eyes between me and Nectar in puzzlement, so Nectar repeated the question, this tie He hurried with his answer

「Oh, yes, now I understand Is there soon Ear was unable to catch the very last feords that he said, but Nectar cae as him, but…… Both of them looked to be in their twenties at best to ical potential is high enough, it could also influence your lifespan!!

So in this world there

Leaving the lifespan aside, keeping almost the very same appearance from the moment of your birth to the moment of your death was another mystery that this another world posed to , as he cleared his throat loudly

「Getting back to the subject at hand, it seeon, and take everything in in for an established fact He may not look like it, but he is also the smartest person in our whole country He continues to be one even in danger And he is beyond doubt that you are not the ordinary, but the Chaos Dragon Well, I ons were able to speak, but……」

In other words, you have faith in Nectar and trust everything that he says?

If he did not, he would have never coer

…… How nice It's al

Even I could feel the htly e all that

So he is the ent person in his whole country, huh?

Certainly, maybe it was all because I was able to wrap my head around the conversation so far, but I could not think of any other word but brilliant when I was looking at hi called an idiot…… He seeot constantly misunderstood He clearly looked like the type that would spend his whole day holed up inside of his laboratory, doing research for the authorities and developing new theories anddiscoveries

I wonder what caused him to end up like he did Maybe it was that the results of his research were not to the authorities' liking? Or maybe he committed some other serious cri to say, oh Chaos Dragon You can say without any doubt that this ic, but he never crossed the line that he shouldn't have crossed His execution was based on false accusation over the by-products of his work, fabricated by those who did not like his research」

Kyle's face suddenly got all tense, but it was then that Nectar interrupted him

「No, Kyle It's because I couldn't deliver the appropriate results in time, and it has made its toll on the ecosystem」

「That's only because they ordered you to deliver practical results of the project that was still in its theoretical phase! Besides, all of your research materials were stolen from you, and you were forced to take most of the blame upon yourself, to the point they even broke your staff!!」

I looked at their argument with my eyes wide open

Nectar's silence was all that Kyle needed to confiretting yourself killed by that Dragon, weren't you?」

「I thought it was strange You were allowed a huge a your research, so why couldn't you come up with any kind of explanation for your delay? It would surely end up in soical experih The country had nothing to gain fro you executed ------ Aside froainst you for being the leader of y This is why they wanted you executed and called for the Acadeon」

「…… If you know thatNectar's words, Kyle couldn't help hiht about it a whole lot, but theface of yours, looking at that Dragon like soht I was prepared, but it looks like I was the fool here」

「Kyle……?」

「Thanks to the Chaos Dragon, the Death curse has been lifted froht? That's perfect The country won't be able to deal with the Dragon if no report at all comes back to the to share with you the extra provisions that I brought with e, right? And there is stillover to the land at that」

「The country has finally realized just how severe the situation is in reality Fro to serve as a backup for those who fight the de As for the leakages, the ht without a minute of sleep to come up with a solution So, for a while the security at the border should be pretty lenient You should be able to go in an out as you please, even without your staff As for the contract with the Chaos Dragon, do as you ith it But never come back here」
