“Are you really okay? Does your stomach hurt? You didn’t eat anything bad, did you?”

Peering into my sickly looking face, Lady Saintess quickly raised a ruckus .

“Uhh, it’s nothing . I was only thinking about something . ”

“Is there something worrying you? No need to be so distant; don’t hold back and tell me everything! You just said we’re best pals after all!”

“Well, even if I ask you for advice I really can’t see the situation getting any better…”

Nevertheless, I was fairly dispirited . I’d certainly be thankful if I could share some of my heavy burden by talking . After glancing around the shallow riverbed and making sure no one else was here, I explained to Lady Saintess the matter of Rēko’s awakenment . That was also including the possibility I realized earlier of the dread towards Rēvendia drifting over to her .

And the conclusion Lady Saintess gave was,

“What, isn’t that easy? Then wouldn’t the power transfer over to Mr . Lizard if you only behaved a little like an Evil Dragon?”

“Ah?”

She not only believed me unexpectedly easily but even suggested an inconceivable solution .

“After all, originally that dread was gathered consciously around Mr . Lizard . It only drifted over to the nearby Lady Rēko because Mr . Lizard was too miserable, so if Mr . Lizard stands up straight and turns Evil Dragon-ish it surely should return to its rightful place . ”

“R-Really? Rēko will return to being a normal child if I become a bit more like Evil Dragon?”

“Yes, I’ve no substantial proof but somehow I’m sure about it!”

Since Lady Saintess’ face was beaming with confidence I also got a little excited and started wagging my tail . Once I returned Rēko to normal I could bring her to a human village while I could yet again seclude myself deep in the mountains . I was gus.h.i.+ng with hope .

Feeling already as though everything was solved I jumped into the creek and immersed myself in the pleasantly cold water . The chilly sensation began was.h.i.+ng away my stress, so much so that I even found Lady Saintess, who also soaked herself in water, messing around and shooting a water pistol at me refres.h.i.+ng――

“… Huh? But what should I do to become more Evil Dragon like?”

I had a role model (Rēko) nearby, but I absolutely never, ever could act like that . When I was fretting over what to do while blowing bubbles on the water’s surface, Lady Saintess gently placed her hand on my shoulder .

“Please don’t worry Mr . Lizard . Don’t you remember that I once was a demon? In other words the former pro of evilness . You can leave the coaching to me . ”

“Ah, I’m good . ”

I refused with a never seen before ease .

“Why’s that!”

Screaming in protest, Lady Saintess raised a splash of water .
