Chapter 368: A Comfortable Cruise

Chapter 368 A Comfortable Cruise

Hund-kun pretends to be calm, but it’s clear that he’s getting excited inside. Fortunately, the others seem to be busy with something else, so no one noticed Hund-kun’s state. I wonder if I should point this out to him. More or less, he’s got some pride as the Great Eight Demons…. No, I guess it’s a trivial matter compared to the problems Lily made. Okay, since Hund-kun is full of motivation, let’s use him this time. There’s Zex here, so I’m sure it’s possible.

「Chinatsu, let me touch your forehead for a moment.」

「Eh? Ah, sure….」

I put my hand on the forehead of Chinatsu, who’s suffering from trauma, and use Refresh. This should stabilize her condition. She can use it on her own, but the trauma seems to be deeper than I thought.

「Did you feel better?」

「… Thank you very much. Deris-san’s magic is on a whole different level, huh. I feel so much better now.」

「Shishō, me too! Please use it on me too!」

「Ah, not fair! Me too!」

「There’s no point in doing this to you guys who are fine from the beginning. Well, I don’t mind, though….」

Rather, the one who needs it these days is probably Hund-kun. However, he has pride as a Demon King, and now he’s absorbed in the sea. I won’t use it on him unless he asks me to. Even though we’re acquaintances, it’s like touching the head of another company’s president without permission and then taking off his wig. It’s something very rude.

「Ah~, the stress I got from Lily-shishō is alleviated~….」

「It’s so refreshing!」

「FUHAHA! Now that everyone has calmed down, allow me to tell you how to get to the Dragon God’s Island! A little to the west of here, there is a regular water dragon service that’s making a round trip between the island and this coast! For a relatively low price, you can ride on a dragon ship, which is a rare transportation service in itself! It’s also very popular among tourists!」

Zex started to explain how to move to the island. Did he appear here just for that?

「Hee, a dragon is pulling the ship? That’s certainly something I’ve never experienced.」

「It’s the sea version of the dragon carriage, I guess? But the Dragon’s Island is the territory of the Great Eight Demons, right? Why would dragons do that?」

「That’s because the inhabitants of the island and Rimudo-dono have made various vows. That is one of them, and I heard that immature dragons are more likely to grow if they are carrying a heavy burden. Well, maybe it’s part of their training.」

「They act as a bridge while training! I see, that’s something nice!」

「FUHAHA, that’s right! If you’re trustworthy enough, they may let you fly on their back! Not that I want to destroy your dream, but if it’s me, I can fly on my own!」

「No, I think that’s dreamy in itself!」

「Hey, let’s go to see the water dragon. You guys have seen earth dragons, but I’ve never seen any dragons up close *Excited*

It seems that they are getting excited. Now, it’s a little hard to bring it up.

「Well… I’m sorry to interrupt your excitement about dragons ――」

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

While feeling the peculiar scent of seawater, we’re enjoying an exhilarating voyage. The speed can’t be compared to that of a water dragon ship, and the cruise is the most advanced cruise, which provides a stable voyage without unnecessary swaying. With this, I’m sure that the disciples, who were enthusiastic about the story of the dragon, won’t complain.

「Kuhaha, the sea is the best after all! My body is pleased with the fresh saltwater!」

Yeah, the one pulling our ship is not a water dragon, but Hund-kun, the Demon King of the sea. He has taken the form of a sea snake, his strongest form in the water, and he’s heading toward the island at a tremendous speed. The very excited Hund-kun is pleased and can train, while we can quickly get to the destination for free. It’s truly a great plan.

「Hmm, it’s certainly pleasant, and he looks like a dragon in a way…. Well, it’s a plan that Danna came up with, so I’m fine with it.」

「I thought that we were going to swim to the island.」

「Swimming around the Dragon God’s Island without permission is prohibited. The official reason is that there are dangerous creatures and some humans died every year. Well, this is one of the vows that the residents made with Rimudo. In fact, it seems that most of the victims are poachers, and they probably became food for the dragons that protect the island.」

「I see, it’s a measure to keep suspicious people away from the territory, huh. By the way, there are a lot of dorsal fin-like things sticking out of the surface of the sea. Could it be….」

「I think they are all water dragons.」

The latest_epi_sodes are on_the novel35.COM website.

「Uwaah….」

「Shishō, is it okay for Hund-kun to swim?」

「Yeah, we just got permission from the island through Zex. He’s not human, and he’s originally the Demon King of the sea. The application was approved immediately.」

By the way, that body of Zex couldn’t leave the mining site, so we parted again at the beach earlier. I have a feeling that he might pop up again somewhere, so I didn’t feel sad or anything when parting with him.

「Well, even I can go this fast, you know? As for the dangerous creatures, I can just mow them down, right?」

「No, no, we have to get permission. Also, you shouldn’t beat them just because you can.」

Even though we got permission, the water dragons are still watching Hund-kun. In Nell’s case, I’m sure they won’t give their permission since the aftermath of the impact would be terrible. If we were to ignore it and defeat the dragons, in the worst case, we would end up antagonizing Rimudo. On top of that, I can easily imagine Nell’s figure trying to fight Rimudo head-on. If they turn this place into a sea of fire, even I, the fire-extinguisher Deris, will turn pale. So, please stop.

「Hund-kun, please go to the nearest island first. It’s supposed to be the gateway to the island.」

There are eight islands in the Dragon God’s Island. However, most of them are residential areas for humans and resorts for tourists. In fact, it’s said that less than half of the islands are actually inhabited by dragons. But then, the big islands are completely inhabited by dragons. As for Rimudo, he’s located on the largest island, that rocky mountain.

「Got it! I promise you a more pleasant cruise than a dragon!」

「I-Is that so? That’s reliable, haha….」

I’m the one who made Hund-kun do this, but he finally said it himself…!
