Level 1 Strongest Sage ~

Book 9: Chapter 16: Ryuushin on a Rampage?

Ryuushin-sama! Please quell your fury!!

More than a hundred humans are currently prostrating themselves before me.

Im not really that angry

Was the sacrificial maiden not to your liking?

Uh, Im not really asking for a sacrificial maiden, you know. Besides, its not like Im a dragon

You do not need a sacrifice? Then, does that mean that one isnt sufficient n-no, are you planning to destroy the entire village!?

Hi, hiiiii!!

Its no use. Its the e-end for us all

Daddy, Im scared

H-Hush. You might anger Ryuushin-sama!

Please, please, I beg you, only my daughter, please save her.

.......

Why the heck is this happening?

Its been a while since I went out on my own so I decided to do just that, and yet it turned out like this. I decided to re-think about the possible cause.

The week after Ifrus Academy of Magics long vacation ended, I noticed Luke wearing a shiny little ring on his left hands ring finger.

My classmate got hitched before I noticed.

Theres another male in our class a human named Halt but that guys already married, too.

And its not to a single person only, mind you.

Halt has several wives.

My older sis Ryuka is also one of them.

Im his younger brother-in law.

Not only that, Lukes wife is the younger sister of Leaffa, another of Halts brides.

Erm, so how am I related to Luke now?

Is Luke kinda like my younger bro-in-law?

In that case, I have an older bro-in-law and a younger bro-in-law among my classmates.

Er, sounds complicated.

Well, doesnt really matter.

Im already used to this situation.

Actually, if you stay beside Halt, stuff like this aint really that surprising anymore.

The problem here is that there are three males in our class, but two of them are already married.

Humans of this world grow at a relatively slow rate from their birth until they are about five years old, then theyll become closer to their adult appearance by the time they reach ten. Its also said that they quickly mature mentally, too.

As for the rest of the people be it an Elf, a Beastkin, or even Dragonoids like us we mature at relatively the same rate as everyone else.

And so, youre considered an adult when you hit 15 years old.

Its the same for all the tribes.

After a person reaches adulthood, the lifespan will vary depending on the race, but most people age gradually.

By the way, those who have human blood from mixed parentage also grow the way humans do, apparently. I wonder, was that the case with Teacher Tina?

In Ifrus Academy of Magic the academy I go to humans enroll at the age of ten, while the rest of the folks enroll at sixteen.

Its so that the students appearances and mental age would match their peers in the same class, apparently.

Not only that, non-humans can also delay their enrolment by two to three years, apparently. In my case, I entered the academy at sixteen.

Im in my second year, and Ill be eighteen this year.

My point is, Im already at the age when I can also look for my marriage partner.

And yet Im still single.

Even though everyone in my class took the plunge, you know.

Yeah.

Every single person EXCEPT ME already tied the knot.

Well, the majority of them are Halts brides, though.

Funny, right?

He couldve left even just one for me.

The prettiest girls in the entire academy are in my class.

And ALL of them became Halts brides.

Including the teacher, to boot.

He couldve left even just one for me!!!

We dont really get to see the other classes outside our inter-class battles in this academy.

Besides, Im living at the mens dormitory.

Well, were near the central city so I can meet girls if I go there, but

I dont have any contacts!

We dont have anything to talk about!

Its impossible for me to flirt and seduce anyone!

Ive been with Ryuka since were lil kids, but I never had any chance of playing with other girls back then.,

Thats why Im totally clueless on what to say to any other girl aside from my older sis.

And that folks is the reason why Im still single.

Urk, so lonely.

Theres another thing thats causing my depression.

Bracelets have become trending among my classmates, for some reason.

Halt has matchy-matchy ones with his wives.

Luke also has one, and he said its a pair with his bride.

Some of them had rings while some didn't, but all of them, except me, wore bracelets on their right wrists.

And you know, some of my classmates would even gaze at their bracelets while grinning.

Why did you leave me out, huh!?

Give me one too.

Im also your younger/older bro-in-law, you know

And then it happened. Halts bracelet changed while Im passing the days preoccupied with such thoughts.

Two tiny gemstones, one blue and one red, were added to his bracelet.

I could feel a faint power coming from them.

I was totally ignorant of those things back then, but now that I could completely dragonize, Im more sensitive to the power of others.

Actually, its not because Ive learned how to do perfect dragonization. I think I got this keen sense after being beaten black and blue by Halt because I got too carried away when I first turned into a complete dragon.

While Halt was beating the heck out of me, I totally regretted being carried away, and I also wished that I would have the power to discern my opponents power.

Halt beat me till I fainted.

That was one heck of a pain, yeah.

Can you believe it? I, the person who perfectly dragonized into the strongest colored dragon in this world, was beaten black and blue to the point of fainting, and thats using bare hands, to boot.

Oh, I guess I was lucky he was unarmed.

Thats him being considerate in his own way.

If Halt used that sword of his

U-Urk. Stop thinking about it

I might pee my pants just by imagining that happening.

I was already back to my human form when I woke up.

It was also then that I got the ability to see through other peoples hidden power.

I looked at Halts power again using that ability.

Rubbish.

Halt didnt have a speck of hidden power or anything.

Theres no way thats true!

He didnt have any secret power, and yet he punched me so many times!? That doesnt make sense, right!?

Im sure Halt got some major power that could even fool my ability.

Im sure thats it.

Thats when I decided never to let my guard down when it comes to Halt.

By the way, I also peeked at Youko and could faintly sense that she also has a secret power. As expected of a Nine-Tailed Fox.

That means my ability is working perfectly fine.

Oops, were getting off-topic, huh.

Alright, back to Halts bracelet.

Halt told me that those added jewels were gifted by Mai and Mei.

Thats when I had my eureka moment.

Lets get a gem or a crystal and give it to Halt and Ryuka as a wedding present.

Ill pick a small one that will fit a bracelet, and a rare one, to boot.

Halts the kind of guy who has a strong sense of duty, so hell definitely send a return gift.

Ill try to request that he set part of the stone I gifted him into a bracelet.

It doesnt have to match with the bracelets of all his wives.

Maybe we can buy or make thin, matching bracelets for me, Halt and Ryuka, and add them to the bracelets theyre both wearing

Thats pretty stylish, I guess.

Halt doesnt really wear necklaces and stuff like that, but I dont think he will mind wearing a lot of things on his wrist.

Yeah, its a pretty cool idea.

And so, I went to visit the dragon who creates gems and ores, but

Whi is it? T-this is my turf, Im gonna k-kill anyone who comes here.

...What the heck.

The guy that was formerly an earth attribute dragon had turned into an evil dragon.
