There at the foot of the mountain was a huddled figure of a dragon resting on its wounded wings.

A Wyvern dragon.

It is a relatively major part of the dragon species. They are a race called flying dragons, and while they are not very valuable as food, their scales are valuable as material for various weapons and armor.

”I hope you can fight a little, right?

Well, a little bit.

I'm sure you'll be happy to know that I'm not the only one.

I'm sure you'll be able to find out what's going on.

I'm sure you'll be happy to know that I'm not the only one who's been in this situation.

You will be able to find out if your opponent's injuries are too severe to do this.

But the strong scaled armor blocked the blow.

The dragon brandishes its claws to counterattack the Lily who has injured herself.

As if to cut off its claws, my claws flash.

Lily is slightly startled by my instantaneous support, but she listens to the dragon's roar of pain and thrusts her sword back into the defenseless belly that was about to fall on its back.

You can also have a look at the following information

I'm sure you'll find that most of them are not very good. Yeah, of course you're talking about taste.

After the battle is over, Lily, who has been writing something in her diary that allows her to send the same letters to a distant book, suddenly opens her mouth.

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you want to do. But I don't like hunting demons just for the sake of this kind of point. And even more so when it's a guy who tried to escape despite being hurt.

I saw the expression on Lily's face as if she were me.

Killing demons is not in itself evil. But a hunter never kills more than is necessary.

If you can do the minimum amount of hunting necessary to live, it's better.

She closes her diary before I can say anything to her.

Okay, that's it. Later on, the craftsman will be here to get this dragon. For now, we're done. So let's go back.

Then she puts her hand on my shoulder and starts to walk away, but as she is leaving, she looks back at me as if she remembered something.

Oh, that's right. You're surprisingly strong. Thank God.

Her smile as she thanked me was beautiful, but at the same time, it was sad.

Oh!　Lily!　Just in time!　I was inspired by Jack's soybeans the other day and tried to grow a soybean monster, but it's growing like crazy!

You're an idiot. Regular jewelbeans are fertile as a weed. From what I've heard, they grow their own nutrition and other things by themselves.

”Oh!　That's right!　This way of growing up for nothing!　Wow, that's a lot of field meat!　Seriously!

You'd better be a little more deliberate in your cultivation of .......　What's that flower popping out of the fruit!

”Whoa!　The peanut butterflies are maturing and scattering fruit like stars!　Ta, evacuate!　Evacuate!

When she came back, she was having an idle conversation with the boy named Kyou, as she usually does.

However, their expressions are very lively and joyful, and their smiles are not the lonely ones they showed me earlier, but pure smiles.

Seeing them, a warm smile naturally appeared on my cheek.

So you're really going to leave now?　Oh, how about peanut butterflies and jewel beans, if you like?

No, this killer plant fruit and all the other stuff you gave me was enough.

I see. Then you have a good day.

After that, I stayed with a man named Kyou for a while, and I made a new decision to leave.

After spending time with them, I've come to have a clear reason for my departure.

I'm going to try to create a truly productive world where people and demons are in harmony, just like you.

”?　Huh?　I'm not sure what you're talking about, but good luck with that one too!

You can't help but giggle as he gives you a thumbs-up.

Then, you thank the girl next to him again.

Thank you for your help, Lily. You've made me think about many new ways.

I didn't do anything. I didn't even thank you for saving your life.

You will be able to get a good idea of what you can do with it.

You'll be able to find out the best way to make it happen. It's the first time I've felt beautiful when I was in a brutal battlefield.

”What?

I'm not sure why my face turns red in response to my heartfelt praise, but for some reason I became silent and rigid.

Did I say something to offend her?　I knew I should have compared it to a butterfly instead of a flower, but it's too late now.

I waved back to the frozen Lily and Kyou and her demons as they rained down on me, and once again set out on my journey.

There's nowhere to go for now.

But still, if I can spread what Kyou was doing to this world, even if only a little, it will bring about a big change and progress for this world.

That's what I was thinking when I was walking down the street.

Hey, good to see you. Hey, Mr. Ferrido.

There was a figure I knew.

”You can go to ......

I need your help. I need you to help me, or at least our plan.

I was puzzled by the man's request for help, and I hesitated, wondering what to say to the offer, which should not have been there, but then I was shocked again by the man's words.

Lend me your power to change this world. I'm ”Heroic Hero” Ferid, one of the Seven Heroes.
