Comp died so we’ll have a mass release today and tomorrow First up, thanks Jon Mitchell! This chapter is for you sier than usual, sorry for the delay
(I already bought a new laptop though I feel like I’ve been translating just this chapter the whole week…anyway, editors are inactive on the Sundays when I’m active hahaha )
Chapter 30
“Well then, dear guest, please be at ease”
“Thanks……”
I gave a reply but sed my saliva due to the atmosphere in this place
We caon’s Te
The ceiling was so dark, I can’t tell how high it was I can see that it should be high enough for dragons to fly around
The enore torches at various places We were in front of a Elder-san as sitting on a pedestal-like place
On his right was the red dragon who suppressing his heated look
Finally, on the left side was that ero kid who had a refreshi+ngly cool expression
How should I say it… it’s a room for a Last Boss
Even now, it feels like the Boss’ BGM is playing (T/N: background music)
I decided to take the lead in order to eliminate this atmosphere
“Thank you for inviting me in this occasion! I’ll have to bother you!”
Greeting and greetings!
Properly bon your head and don’t forget to smile
I wonder if it’s somewhat better now
“No, please take it easy Would it be alright to start with some questions?”
My hand was destroyed in an instant
What……start with some questions…… he says?
Let’s reevaluate, by proposing this interrogation, another kind of tension was rising
I sed a direct attack to uts
And it had a treon’s scary look
“?…… is that fine?”
“O! Of course, you can ask away, as long as it’s so I can answer!”
I hurriedly nodded then the Elder-san finally spoke in a serious tone
“Well then, have you any intention of destroying us?”
It’s a terribly simple, yet incredibly rude, question for me
To nuance, I have a pretty closetold such
“……why do the people of this world bring forth such violent topics the moment they look at a person’s face?”
Going back to it, that question was sickening
There’s no way that that’s the case
In the first place, there’s no sense on doing it
Could it be that my face looks incredibly evil?
With a mirror, I wanted to check how they had the ihed atso
“Hm…… do you not understand? Since you don’t seem to be concious of it, I shall tell you
If I had power like yours, I’ll definitely do so Sn my conditions unless you want to be destroyed It’s very simple, everyone fears death”
“That’s quite violent Though you look like you can s ulp”
I may say it like that, but I would feel fear when I’on
On that note, I sighed at that plunderer-like mindset
It ht easy indeed, but whether or not it’s acceptable is another story altogether
Besides, if the enoron in front ofthe ‘yes’
“No no, our dragon race may indeed surpass most creatures, and we pride ourselves for that
However, it’s not like we’re invincible
In truth, there’s a monster in front of us that can’t be defeated even with a horde of dragons Inyears of life…… I could feelyou”
“Does it really warrant that level of alarm?”
After hearing that I’ like an indiscriminate murderer, I honestly feel empty
At e eyes and scoffed He answered as to rebuke me
“H of one’s own strength
Understanding the difference in power coly want to go up in a fight against someone like you I’m the same”
Elder-san pointedly stared at the red dragon beside him
Once he noticed it, the red dragon defended for himself
“That’s not true! I do not fear!”
“That’s why you are foolish…… enough of that He just doesn’t know the value of his power but he certainly knoield it Or what? Are you saying that you want to teach him another purpose for it?”
“……fuu”
The red dragon sniffed at the Elder’s words but he kept his mouth closed anyway
To that reaction, Elder-san redirected his gaze back at me and my answer
He quietly said,
“Actually when it co that I could do, it would I keep my pride or would I keep my life
It will be a choice between those two
In the first place, either will be dependent on your whims I can’t tell you how relieved I am to know that you have no hostile intentions”
I don’t knohat to do after that tired and resigned statement
“The Fairy Queen was completely armed and declared that she won’t yield to threats, you know?”
“Fufufu, that sounds like her Ihad I been the first toon an opponent that you have no chance of winning against, that’s a fool who doesn’t know his own strength, or so as e you in person, my impression of you actually isn’t bad”
“……that’s quite an impressive sentiment”
If it’s athis far is incredible
Even so, talking intelligently like this, there’s no longer that i a monster
Perhaps, if I was an ordinary man, I would only see him as a monster until the end
That not being the case, it’s thanks to this power that I’m able to think this way It’s ironic
“If you felt uncoize However, I had to make sure”
“Of what?”
“Well…… I wonder what Perhaps of what kind of creature you are?”
“……and? Do you think you’ve met the one you wanted to see……?”
“I wonder? But I think it was the right decision to invite you over as a guest I must thank the Fairy Lord
Well then, my speech ends here”
Concluding the discussion, Elder-san nodded in satisfaction
We~ll, he’s seenlike that?
How he sees it is up to Elder-san himself If that’s over, then I’ll move onto another subject
“Yosh Now then let’sI want to give you”
“Oh, which is?”
“About this……”
I’ve been preparing for this day, to present the best instrument
A ic purse
“……what’s that?”
The dragonfly didn’t say anything until now, but I pulled out soobble up She’s quite gluttonous
Wait wait, the main show is after this
“This has a ic purse!”
Why a ic purse, you ask? That’s because a pocket is too fale, why skirt over Doraemon?)
Though I didn’t dare say it
It doesn’tfro it
It is the debut of my PC
When I presented my prided computer, the Elder’s eyes zeroed in on it
“What is this? Might this be too small for us?”
“You can transforh? I heard from your son that you can Anyway, since you’ve let me look around, I would also like to have you look at so”
“Hou? Will this fit our standards?”
The Elder happily asked and I eagerly nodded
“Of course You ent Therefore, I think you can use this well Of course, you’re receiving this froive some consideration for that
I’ll lend a hand if anything should bother you How about it?”
We~ll it’s kinda strange to give things ahile also giving out favours, but it can’t be helped this time
New things take time before they are accepted
Besides, it’s evencannot show its true value unless a lot of people use it
However, Elder-san declined my consideration
“Hmm…… no, we shall accept this as a proof of trust However, can you explain what this is?”
“Ah! Of course! Then shall we have a brief explanation?”
I was nervous for linted
Then let , this is not a personal computer
Rather, it’s closer to a modern mobile phone
As a single device, it cannot do cos
What it can do is to write sentences and drawings, or even edit ies
The mirror has a touch screen system but it is also attached to a keyboard, as well as a mouse
Further
To make a sentence understandable, it has a real-time translation function to make the person on the other side of the e
It is the application of the ot from Kawazu-san
There are also other accessories, you can take preserve of what you’ve seen using a crystal, a camera in short
Just hold it on your hands and you can save what you can see with your own eyes using the “start” and “stop” keywords
This crystal uses e time is about one hour
It has a stand, and you can recharge it by connecting it to the main body
It sends the videos to the main body, then you could edit them
Of course, it’s possible to cut scenes to make a picture It can also be saved as it is, like a movie
It is also possible to take a picture by the usual keyword, “cheese”
And the function of the centerpiece, that is to communicate
There are twomode and conversation mode
The writing e It is the application of ic to store information, it is a mode to input and accumulate information
Create a space for yourself and edit the information within it
Or share a coorized places
Send es to individuals, as you would letters
And so on
These inforical machine, you can view and edit it at any time
Of course, mail is different
For the conversation mode,it’s, like a TV phone
Magicall speaking, it’s a h the mirror
Use the power of the nate the other party, and it will be just like a conversation
Different froic mirror, you don’t have to use your own mana Also you can even hide your face
With this, a dragon and a hu to each other
But well, it’s just like this right now If everything goes well, we’ll add s you can do
For the tined to be as easy to use as possible
It’s just enough to get used to
It was satisfying to finish the explanation without a hitch
“We~ll, that’s about it? I ic, so I think even a small child can use it
But it will explode if you disassemble it so be careful, okay?”
“…… the explosion won’t be small, correct?”
“Of course it will be a small explosion just for this to be destroyed, I don’t think it’s anything serious It’s just so that it won’t get disassembled”
“…… h troublesome comes up?”
“My, then if such a thing comes up, your seller will run to the rescue This is a mechanism that anyone can use, so you don’t have to worry”
Even after I finished my explanation, I panicked from the bad reaction from the Elder
