Chapter 72 (2/2)

There’s a limit to being rude . Why don’t you guys just obediently believe what I say? What a let-down . Although I did dramatize it somewhat, but me and Mr Lizard going through an equal matched battle is a full-fledged fact .

That was when the boy said “Now that I think about it” and began talking .

“I got the gist of the circ.u.mstances of this dragon over here, but what about you? He called you a Saintess or something… Could you be this town’s clergy?”

“Yes, you were listening well! I’m the guardian deity protecting this town of Seiren! You might not believe me with Mr Lizard, but saying frankly I’m stronger than that Mr Doradora over there!”

“Aaah, I got it . You are an amazing person . ”

Even though this time she said the truth, the boy only looked at her with unconcealed sadness in his eyes . No matter how one looked at it she was mistaken as a pitiful person .

“Mr Doradora! Don’t stay silent and explain please! Tell him how amazing I am!”

“Sorry but I don’t remember losing to you . ”

Lady Saintess’ face dyed red from her anger .

Did he really forget how he was sent back without breaking my barrier countless times in the past? Since it’s come to this I guess I should just leave him unable to move inside the barrier―― Just when she was in the middle of considering her options, the boy let out a long sigh turning his back to them .

“Well whatever, I’m going back . I need to hurry up and return, the penalty for running away is freaking scary . ”

“Wait a minute boy . I was able to understand that it’s the human’s style of tempering trainees but… You serious? You’ll die, you know? Or maybe you’re into things like that?”

“Say that I like it one more time and I’m gonna send you f.u.c.king flying . It’s obviously to become strong . ”

Hearing these words, Doradora heaved a deep sigh .

“I see . The reason for humans being able to excel us and become strong is because their thirst for power thwarts even the fear of death . In that case, I also must abandon my attachment to life…”

“What the h.e.l.l are you saying?”

“Climb onto my back brat . My bad for hindering your practice . I’ll send you back as quickly as possible . And then, I’ll try challenging those adventurers once more . ”

“Nah it’s better if you don’t . I think they know no mercy when fighting demons . ”

“I won’t become as strong as possible if I value my life . To fight that Evil Dragon, this little recklessness is a par for the course―― Right, brat?”

The young boy held his breath as if shocked, and eventually he wordlessly climbed on Doradora’s back . It seemed like for some reason a strange sense of fellows.h.i.+p was being born, but the left out Lady Saintess found it only to be unpleasant .

“Well then Saintess, stay well till the day we meet again . ”

“I’ve no clue who you are miss, but see you later―”

Doradora spread his wings with a snap and flew away .

Those two will no doubt go through many beatings in the name of their training . By all means, please let them suffer . It shall be their divine punishment for making light of this Saintess .

Just when sulky Lady Saintess was diving back into her waterway, it suddenly hit her .

―― Come to think of it, I revealed to that long-haired demon before that Mr Lizard is weak . I wonder if it’s going to be okay?

She worried for around ten seconds, after which she decided it surely would turn out fine . Feeling completely refreshed, she dived into the waterway and just like that returned to her temple’s spring .
