38 [31] Each value.txt (1/2)

You! How dare you heal the flying dragon (that guy) that attacked the inn and then let him go!

It was Ristiane who came with a shout of anger.

He seemed to have finished evacuating the people in the inn town and came in a hurry to help Meldina and Cunaria, who had become a decoy.

''The flying dragon (this guy) was just frustrated and flailing around because he had an arrow stuck in his body. Now that he's healed and he's calmed down, why don't we let him go?

You're kidding me! There have been no deaths, but the innkeepers have suffered! We can't allow such a dangerous demon to get away with it!

”Glulululu!

The flying dragon reacts to Ristiane's killing intent and begins to threaten again.

Virum, who appeases the flying dragon while petting it, lets out a big sigh.

''It was definitely a person who put you in such a dangerous situation, right? Basically, flying dragons never leave the mountains where their pack lives. Either the prey in their territory would be depleted or they would be driven away by another creature. The arrow stuck in the flying dragon's (this guy) ass was definitely an arrow used by people. I don't know who did it, but it's clear that he was attacked by a person. Therefore, the reason why the flying dragon (this guy) was rampaging here is because of a person.

I don't give a shit! What's wrong with attacking demons that harm us!

Then let me ask you the opposite. What is wrong with this flying dragon attacking the people who harmed the demons?

'What? Yeah, but those people in this town didn't attack that guy!

'Can you distinguish between individual demons that attack you? Unless it's an individual with a lot of characteristics, the appearance of a different species looks all the same.

Ristiane's eyes narrowed at Wyrm's answer.

The killing spirit emanating from her gradually increases.

''...You are a human, yet you protect the demons?

Don't get me wrong. I'm not on the side of the people and I'm not on the side of the demons. The only thing I care about is my family and friends. The reason why I healed Flying Dragon this time is because I didn't want Meldina and Kounaria to fight with the wrong idea. If the flying dragon (this guy) had not followed my advice and continued to rampage, I would have killed him.

''...You're still an abomination. Normal humans wouldn't defend a demon that attacked them for any reason. If it weren't for the orders of the princess, I wouldn't have hired you...

I don't care what you think. I'm not going to change my mind. It's natural to respect our own species, but remember that it applies to them too.

The standoff between Wyrm and Ristiane continues.

Meldina and Cunaria, and for some reason, even the flying dragon is watching the outcome with a harassed look.

''Meldina-san! Mr. Cunnalia! Looks like he's safe, right? The flying dragon is getting quiet... what are you doing?

The one who broke the silence was Lumeria, who had let Ristiane get ahead of her and followed her.

She noticed Virum's Listiane glaring at each other with a killing intent and hurriedly interrupted her.

''Princess, let's not hire these people after all. This guy in particular can only be a harm to our country.''

Wait, Listi. It's my father's, the King's, request to take him away. And you know that we can't stop it, not on our own. What the hell is going on here?

He is surprised that Listiaane, who is usually always following his (Lumeria's) image and tends to be somewhat out of the loop and out of control, is staring at him with murderous intent without taking her eyes off of Virm, and asks for an explanation.

Ristiane tells Lumeria without wrapping up her interactions with Virum.

Vilm also didn't make any particular side-effects, and silently listened to the situation.

''I see. Listy is right.''

'Princess! Now then...!

Ristiane's expression shines with joy at Rumelia's reaction.

''But what you said, Virum-san, is also true. Our values are only what we see from a human perspective. The elves have their own values, just as the beastmen have theirs. As an abomination, he has been raised to live a life different from that of ordinary humans, so it is only natural that his values would be different from ours.

However, the reply that followed from her was not the one Listiane asked for.

Ristiane turned her resentful gaze to Virum even more than before, but because of Rumelia's insistence, she didn't jump at him.

'Whatever happens, I'm determined to take him to the kingdom. I know what you are saying for me and the kingdom, but this decision will not be reversed. Are we clear?

Okay, okay.

Ristiane steps back with an expression of reluctance.

Having finished speaking, Rumelia turns to Virmu.

It's a good idea to be able to have a good time with them.

''Well, Virum-san. I know I said that to Listy, but that doesn't change the fact that that flying dragon is dangerous. And I'm against letting it go. What the hell are they going to do about it?

So why don't we just take him there?

What about 「「「「・・・・・・? 」」」」

The four of them were stunned with their mouths hanging open at the unexpected answer.

I'd like to send her back to the nest, but if the client (Hime) says so, we can take her with us. If it's this big, it's safe for the five of us to ride it, right? Next time you don't listen to me and lash out, I'll just kill you... Huh?

He must have sensed the inordinate amount of killing energy that Vilm's squinting eyes emitted.

The flying dragon shakes its head so vigorously that you can see the afterimage.

''Wait a minute! There's no guarantee that that flying dragon will listen to you! I can't take you to the kingdom...
