In his visions, Elvie saw a scene of a young boy and his little sister being attacked by the Spirit Eater
It was a night up just as thehis own existence
However, this time the vision was different from the usual one
This tiets hit by a huge blasts, that ends up obliterating hiical stones, a silhouette of a creature can be seen
Ah, that's right, Elvie finally on that saved both of the attacked by the Spirit Eater, Marca lost consciousness and was alrandfather spoke a lot about dragons
He said that they were kind creatures well versed in all kinds ofthan the ones in his grandfather's stories, but still it offered a possible solution for his predica a contract with one
For getting the dragon to save Marca's life, Elvie agreed to let it inhabit his own body
The dragon said that that he was interested in Elvie
His reason being that he was interested to learn et about that?
「I et so that my observations would not be corrupted」
Elvie turned towards the voice, and there was a dragon standing right there
He took a deep breath,「That explains it… I cannot use ic because of the contract I made with you at that time」
Elvie tires to recall every little bit of infor contracts with the tih
「I see, that's right Thank you」
「Question Why are you thanking on was visibly confused
His appearance was inti at first, but for soely fa you for your help with the Spirit Eater I was thanking you for saving Marca's life Thank you」
He thanks hion re to think that he said soy I occupied your body and used your ic in the process」
Elvie's eyes widen in surprise
「No, I guess it was all written in the contract, but I was just unable to understand as a child There's no need for you to apologize」
「But, I 」
I see, so this dragon knows everything there was to know about Elvie
He could feel all of Elvie's grief, re that now, Elvie felt eon was always at Elvie's side
So Elvie said, while scratching his cheek and looking eood now I admit, at first it was really hard, but I don't think that anymore I was able to make up with Marca, and I was also able toI have chosen of my own volition So it's not like I hate you for that」
Elvie decided to speak to the otherwise silent dragon
「Were my memories helpful to you?」
「Questions, more and more of them」
「Is, is that so?」
Elvie felt a little bit disappointed that his on, but then he realized that the dragon was staring at hi an to stare intensely at Elvie
While the boy was clearly puzzled, yet another deep sigh could be heard
「Aaaaggh, geez, senpai! I told you that you need to say those things properly!」
There was another creature that appeared out of the dark, with jet-black scales cropped with red ones here and there
Elvie knew that figure, He heard about it randfather's tales
「Black Fla entranced, upon hearing it, the black dragon shook its head erratically
「Please, don't ever call on-san or Lava, either one of those is fine with ht, and after a few seconds what e woman whose hair was a mixture of black with red bunches
Her transforon and speaks to it with a calentle voice
「Come now, senpai」
Inspired by the words of a woon finally spoke to Elvie
「I will terminate the contract I made with you」
「Umm, this ain」
Elvie was so surprised by the woman's words that he couldn't really believe it in the first ht that comes out of Elvie's chest
He could only watch in amazement how the ball lifts upwards, and then disappears inside of the dragon
「Can I really use it again?」
He was finally able to reclaio
But even though they said so like that to him, he was unsure just how to feel about it
However, it was a little bit surprising that he ave up on it
「Yes, and as of now, you can use o once you wake up」
The woon
「Senpai, you should introduce yourself」
「…… Affir time, so it was only now that he realized that the sand-colored dragon brought his face closer
His steep expression was truly terrifying
It opened its long mouth, filled to the brim with sharp teeth
「My name is 'The One Who Becomes One with Wilderness」
「O, Okay」
It was as if his brain was understanding the words, but just didn't wanted to accept them
「I ask you for permission to be able to call you by your name」
「…… Huh?」
This ti at all
「No, senpai, I do believe that you need to explain yourself and your intention more properly, or otherwise you will just confuse the boy」
「…… Affiron responds to the wo a headache
This i less and less serious in Elvie's eyes
The sand-colored dragon looked to be in deep roughy then said,
「I will protect you for as long as my body and my soul lasts In return, I would like you to be ht I don't think the boy get what you are saying in the slightest」
「……Impossible to explain further」
The woman looks to the sky in exparations Elvie didn't understand any of that, but he chose to remain silent about it
Elvie then speaks,
「Umm, hmm If, if you feel responsible for the fact that I couldn't use ic, there's no need for you to feel that way Because thanks to you I aon that he is still alive, since it was always there when he was in danger
Wasn't this dragon the one who helped hiers in the first place?
「Since you are ed to keep you safe」
「Yes, since now you are no longer in a contract with me, there would be no reason for you to do so」
「However…」
It was strange for the sand-colored dragon to look so disappointed, but nevertheless, Elvie continued
「So, now that there are no rules or obligations bounding you, then what's the proble friends nor and not a dragon?」
Then, for soon opened their eyes wide
Being stared at by two pairs of golden irises, Elvie felt at a bit of a loss on what to do or say
「W, what?」
「You, the best」
「Uood? Afterall, I are of you, but you weren't aware of on asked, and Elvie was not sure if he understood his words at all
Then, the dragon continued speaking,
「I' tiether? So, isn't that a proble about each other?」
