Succubus' Life in Another World

Chapter 137: A Name for a Dragon

Gururu Ah, I didnt forget, I still remember, okay? Dont be so down

As we restrained the culprit Glen while hearing the details, the tiny dragon still laying flat on the ground let out a depressed cry. While the treatment of Glen can be handled with the academys cooperation later after handing him over to the academy, this dragons situation is different.

Gugyaa Mmm, I dont hate you, alright? It wasnt your fault in the first place. Gyao Theres the issue of location and stuff, you see?

The tiny dragon asked if I dislike it and hate it for attacking Urania. It did attack Urania. I cant deny getting a bit too heated up because of that, but I understand that this dragon had its reasons for doing so. The reason Im reluctant to take the dragon is due to space and money reasons.

Gurgaa Ahh In that case, I dont mind, but Uhh, Lily? Hm? You can understand what its saying?

Now that she mentioned it, I just realized that Im communicating with this dragon without any particular issues. Up until now, Ive encountered various magic beasts, but Ive never understood what they were saying back then, so its not as if I have the ability to communicate with them.

For some reason I can, I wonder why? Ufufu~, thats because~ You made the dragon submit. When that happened, a magic pass was formed between you, and you can exchange at least simple thoughts. Ahh! She explained everything!!

Arytte is making a ruckus as her precious screen time was taken from her, but according to Urania, making magic beasts such as dragons and sub-dragons submit occasionally causes a magic power connection called a magic pass to be constructed. Those connected by this can understand what each other is thinking even if they dont speak the same language or so.

Im surprised that you know that sort of thing, Urania. Nn, forgotten knowledge since there are no sorcerers capable of making dragons submit nowadays. Even the book I where I read about it was pretty old, it was hard to read it. That old? Probably more than three hundred years old. There should be more writings in the Empire, but this kingdom doesnt have any dragon knights, so the information is limited.

Just as how this country has highly developed magic and magecraft thanks to the efforts of the sages, the Empire neighboring this country has great advancements on the technique called Taming Arts, she said.

Being able to tame powerful magic beasts is a symbol of status in the Empire, and among these magic beasts, the dragons are highly valued as expected. The Empires top, in particular, the emperor, is referred to as the Dragon Emperor, and emperors for generations have tamed not sub-dragons but true dragons which fly with them on the battlefield.

While the royalty of this kingdom are the descendants of the hero that defeated the demon lord, the imperial family are the descendants of the hero that subjugated and tamed the evil dragon that rampaged in the past or so. Since this world is always under the threat of monsters and magic beasts in general, the nobles governing the lands and naturally the kings that founded countries would not have been in their positions without more than adequate power.

So, what did it say? It seems like it still has work to do back with its pack, so itll procure food and a place to live by itself. In exchange, it only wants a name. Thats a good deal for me, but are you really fine with just that? Gururaa

As I asked for confirmation once again, the dragon gave a pretty pleased reply. It said that itll generally be living with its pack, and that I only need to call for it when I want help. I asked if its alright to only call for it during weekends, and it replied that its fine. This dragon is a bit too loyal, its making me feel like Im a bad master.

I see, Ill be your master then. Now, a name right? Gugaa Lets see, then Serra, how about Serra? GUGYAAAAA!!!

The name means mountain range. While they have tiny in their names, for me tiny dragons are plenty big. Seemingly happy about the name, Serra joyfully roared. Its somewhat noisy but Im glad she liked it.

I left the handing over of Glen to Sola and the others while Urania and I headed to the dragons nest to return the egg. Sadly, todays training session ends here. We cant really just keep the dragon egg on us after all, and Serra wouldnt allow that as well.

Incidentally, the reason I didnt bring Sola and the others along is that they arent strong enough. To begin with, they couldnt do anything upon encountering one tiny dragon and could only escape thanks to Urania.

Moreso since were heading to a frenzied dragon nest. Serra insisted on bringing the egg back by itself, but Id hate it if the dragons living on this island started becoming hostile against humans just due to one guys fault. To tell the truth, the original plan was that only Serra and I would go, but Uranias scent has completely stuck on the egg. Urania also adamantly insisted on wanting to apologize, so I had no choice but to bring her along.

With Serra leading the way, we reached the dragons nest in no time. Exiting the forest, we reached a cave at the foot of a mountain, which seems to be the nesting place of the tiny dragons.

As we arrived at the entrance of the nest, several tiny dragons immediately surrounded us. Each and every one of them has bloodshot eyes, but because Serra stood before us, there arent any signs of them pouncing on us.

GURURUGA GUUU GAA!!

Serra seems to have begun a conversation with the dragon standing in front of the pack. I can somewhat understand what Serra is saying, but its weird how I cant understand the other dragon. Serra is sayingThey are not the egg thief. They helped take back the egg. They came to return the egg.I will not allow harm against them. and the like.

A while later, the other dragon seemed to have been convinced by Serras persuasion and reluctantly accepted us.

Gurugaruu Gyaou Lily, what did it say? Come along and bring the egg.

Saying so, two dragons walked ahead of us and entered the cave. Urania and I exchanged glances, but since theres no use in staying here, we followed after the two.

Behind us, the other dragons surround the entrance, as though to defend it. It was as if they were making a fence to prevent us from escaping.
