Disciple of Immortal

Act 4: Chapter 13: Entrance of The Peach Dragon Village

I decided to go to the peach dragon village since I had to meet the Dragon King to warn them that the 《Ruler of The Sky》 was aiming for the dragon hole.

But that was Ramiel request.

We also had our own purpose, namely gathering the information about the 《Ruler of The Sky》, and entering the treasure house to see the slate which said to record the magic used by Nyarlhotep and co as a mean to combat the higher being.

We rode on Urzottle's back, going toward southern direction of Polorock in accordance to Ramiel's instruction until we arrived in front of a valley.

I could see a huge waterfall afar.

「Peach dragon village is hidden with illusion behind that waterfall. You just need to jump over the waterfall to arrive in the village.」

「I see… Over there huh?」

「That's all for me, the rest is up to you! But I know that Kanata and co can definitely stop the evil plot of the 《Ruler of The Sky》!」

Said Ramiel as she clenched her fists.

「Won't you come with us, Ramiel-san?」

Ramiel shrugged her shoulders when I said so.

「I'm expelled by the 《Ruler of The Sky》 faction's false charge since I knew their plan. Returning to that village is the same as asking the 《Ruler of The Sky》 to kill me before I can even meet the Dragon King-sama…」

Ramiel's body trembled as she replied to me.

Surely, there were such possibilities.

But, I don't entering the Peach Dragon Village and meeting the Dragon King would be as simple as that without an inside connection.

「… That's a tough problem.」

「Don't worry, Kanata-san! The dragon and dragonfolk respect strong people regardless of their race!! Meeting the Dragon King-sama should be a simple matter for Kanata-san and co!」

「Even if you say so…」

「Even if you're a human, they will respect you as honorary dragonfolk for your strength! Just show a good result in the trial inside and they'll regard you as one of their own! After that, requesting a meeting with Dragon King-sama is a breeze!」

I unintentionally squinted my eyes upon hearing Ramiel's remark.

「Honorary… Dragonfolk?」

「So you folks really did look down on humans.」

Rosemonde was clearly pissed off.

「What are you dissatisfied with!? Becoming honorary dragonfolk is considered an honour for the human you know!?」

Ramiel raised her arms while puffing her cheeks.

「Everything, but if I have to point it out, it's that conceited attitude!」

Rosemonde stooped over in front of Ramiel and then pulled her cheeks.

「Stooph! Sto~ph! I don't mind if those two rude people over there did this but, you're far weaker than the~m!」

「Damn brat, finally showing your true nature eh!」

Rosemonde raised her hand, she was about to hit Ramiel.

Pomera moved in a hurry and grabbed Rosemonde's hand from behind.

「S-Stop, Rosemonde-san! Remember, she's just a kid!」

I heaved a sigh and turned to Ramiel.

「Anyhow, all we need to do is take their test of power inside and meet the Dragon King, right?」

「Power is everything for the dragonfolk. Even humans will be recognized as dragonfolk as long as they're strong enough alas, not even natural-born dragonfolk will be recognized as dragonfolk if they're weak. Though there's a saying that the dragonfolk is the one who protected the world, in the end, it's the world where they contested for strength… That's why, weakling like me… Well that matter aside, the point is to make sure you lots have an audience with the dragonfolk before it's too late.」

Ramiel spoke with tears on her eyes.

「Ramiel-san…」

Ramiel's level was by no means high.

Her level was the same as Pomera when I met her for the first time, she was forced by her party member to do the chores due to her low level.

Since dragonfolk's doctrine was strength, the weak one would surely suffer even more than Pomera from back then.

「That's why I have no choice but to ask the human to help me…」

Ramiel wiped her tears with her hands.

「… You have it hard.」

I looked over my shoulder.

Rosemonde who still glared at Ramiel from behind her mask was being admonished by Pomera.

「Oh right, I almost forgot about this. Please say that you save a dragon if they ask you about how you find the whereabouts of Peach Dragon Village. I'm a sinner after all… and if the 《Ruler of The Sky》 knows about your relationship with me, they might try to kill you. You can only divulge this matter to Dragon King-sama.」

「Understand, Ramiel-san, leave the matter of peach dragon village to us.」

「Yes! Now I'll go back to that human town.」

「… I want to ask Ur to send you back to the city but, I don't think it's a good thing to leave Ramiel-san on her own in the city.」

Summoned could only act within a certain range from their summoner. And their summoning time was limited to a few hours.

Though that was more than enough to send Ramiel back to the city, I'm afraid that the 《Ruler of The Sky》's lackey would use that chance to get rid of her.

「I'll go back with her. I've been going along with you lots until this place but, ha~h, I really have no intention to get myself involved in your mess. No amount of life is enough if I have to go along with you guys. In addition, I think it will be much better if I send a letter to that cunning old man about the matter of you lots subjugating the evil dragons.」

Said Rosemonde while grabbing Ramiel's shoulder.

That cunning old man must be referring to Gannet.

「Oi shitty brat. I'll have you to come with me until Manarak. And babysitting you during that time.」

Ramiel pointed at herself, looking up at Rosemonde with a dumbfounded face.

「Babysitting, me?」

「Rosemonde-san might sound harsh but, she has a rather meddlesome personality. So you don't have to worry about her, Ramiel-san.」

Rosemonde glared angrily at Pomera who said those words.

She clicked her tongue and then looked at Ramiel.

「Tch. Are you doubting my power or what?」

「E-Eh, no… I am just a bit surprised. And thank you for worrying about me.」

「Stop acting meekly like that, it's creepy. That tone sounds ill-suited for ya.」

Maybe because Rosemonde was quite embarrassed, she averted her gaze from Ramiel as she said those remarks.
