Chapter 272: Just replace the normal water with hot water
Chapter 272: Just replace the normal water with hot water
*(Ive flown over here while out for a stroll a few times before, but even on my latest visit, there wasnt anything like a village, much less a city, here.)*
Ignoring the shocked Dora for now, I made the park land near the village.
Were here, Dora. Welcome to our village.
M-mhm*(oh no! I was so preoccupied with the size of their village, I didnt notice that weve already arrived. Still, I must find a way to escape!)*
Oh, and you see that tower-like thing in the center of the village? Thats where I live.
T-that one?
Dora looked up at the palace and opened her mouth wide. I didnt know what she was thinking at that moment, but after a while she began to talk in a competitive tone.
n-not bad. Its a little tiny compared to my nest, of course, but its not bad.
Oh, as to be expected of a dragon. If you dont mind, how about we visit your nest next time?
I dont object*(next time? So theyre not going to eat me now? No, no, it must just be some kind of ploy to make me lower my guard.)*
Selen then cut into the conversation.
Drop it, Luke. Going to a dragons nest is like offering yourself up as a meal.
Ahaha, now that you mention it, yeah.
*(Isnt that exactly what Im doing now!? Are these people making fun of me!?)*
After that, I entrusted the hunters with handing over the wyvern we captured to the villages chefs and brought Dora inside the palace.
Dora, being a dragon, was probably not used to a large crowd of people. So, I thought of giving her a reception in my home with only a few people.
Alright, Im going to use teleportation now.
teleportation?
I brought Dora, Selen, Selius-kun, and Philia-san along with me to my home in the highest floor of the palace.
!? The surroundings changed all of a sudden!?
Yeah, I teleported us. Please take a look outside the window. Over there, thats where we were just a moment ago. You can even see the wyverns there.
We could have returned from the mountains through teleportation, but I asked myself where the fun was in that.
*(So youre telling me it was impossible for me to escape from the start!? Hiiiii!? He doesnt look it, but this boy is frightening!)*
I had no idea why, but Doras body began trembling.
Are you feeling cold? When you take on that form, can you feel cold like we humans do?
After a long winter, spring was finally coming to the wasteland where our village was.
That said, the days here continued to be cold. And since we flew back here, we obviously felt colder than usual.
Actually, why dont we get in the bathtubs and warm ourselves up until the food is ready?
Bathtubs?
Hmm, how do I put this? Do you dragons also clean yourselves using water?
Clean ourselves? We do, but only very rarely.
Well, just replace the normal water with hot water and youll pretty much get the bathtub I mentioned.
I didnt want to say it out loud, but it felt like she hasnt cleaned herself in a good whilein other words, she kinda smelled
It wasnt so bad when we were outside, but in a closed space like this where air flows much less, it was hard not to notice.
Millia, can you please guide her how to do it?
Yes, leave it to me, Luke-sama.
Through Satins telepathy, I had asked Millia in advance to come here and lead Dora to the bathroom. She should have the place ready by now.
Well then, Dora-sama, follow me this way, please. *(when I heard there was dragon who has assumed a humanoid form, I didnt expect to see such fine little girlahh, Im drooling. That being said, her charms doesnt come close to Luke-samas.)*
*(W-what? What just happened? I suddenly felt a chill down my spineis it because of this girl? I knew it, people here want to devour me)*
When Dora was about to leave, I observed that her face was a little pale.
She must have been really cold, huh. I hope shell take her time and warm herself up properly.
