Chapter 94
TL: Yuki
ED: Filip
The children all got up at almost the same time. Probably because of everyone eating regularly, their hunger came at the same moment. A chorus of stomach growling could be heard.
The first thing they all noticed when they woke up was that they were surrounded by a gigantic red dragon.
Normally, one would react as if it was a life or death situation, but the children knew quite well who the dragon was, and that instead of being afraid, some were even leaning against its warm body and were starting to doze off again.
The next thing they noticed were two familiar looking people sleeping on a Slime. Cielo who also got up gestured them to watch quietly and be silent.
And then they thought.
It wasnt humans who helped us
Mika happily strokes the heads of Aidle and Arena, who were showing lovely sleeping faces, with her index finger. The two were comfortably smiling while asleep. Of course there were no children rude enough to try and wake up their tiny benefactors.
Nn?Oh, is everyone already awake?
When I woke up, I was greeted by the faces of the children surrounding us. It seems they were confused and didnt know how they should react, as they were only staring quietly. If I suddenly humanize, they would probably be surprised.
UmmYou are, Aidle-san right?
Yup, good morning everyone. Sorry for asking this so suddenly, but can everyone keep this a secret?
The children immediately nodded in response. Thats good, but its also fine if they actually talk about it. Anyway, for the time being I transformed and then took Maurice and Arena and put them under my hood.
Thanks Maurice, you can absorb a little bit
When I said that, it absorbed around 10% of my magic power. Its a little more than usual but its fine. Ah, thats right, theres also the situation with Cielo.
Ummm, Cielo? About La Veil
About that, why dont we have a meal first?
Cielo stopped me halfway and then looked at everyone, an act followed by grumbling stomachs. Even mine was grumbling. Well, I guess we cant talk properly in this situation.
Then, shall we start preparing for now?
Ha~i
The children quietly replied as if to not wake up La Veil and Arena. I should take them all home back to Ladaria.
Hm? Something smells good
Oh, youre finally up La Veil? Were almost finished preparing meals
Nu, ah good morning master. Good morning everyoneah I forgot that I was in this state. Sorry, Ill transform right a-Good Morning La Veil!! whoops!?
The children carrying plates rushed towards La Veil who just woke up. She probably didnt expect to be liked by humans in her current state and was a little disturbed. She was also moving strangely to avoid hurting the little ones. Ah, shes crying.
Oh, I just felt nostalgic being treated like this by humans
Everyone here is grateful to you after all. Now, why dont you humanize so we can start our meal?
Umu
When La Veil returned to her human form and started eating, Cielo sat next to her. La Veil wanted to move away because of the awkwardness, but Cielo immediately started talking about the main subject.
Um, you, you were the Holy Dragon, right?
UghWell, I guess I was indeed called that before
I was wondering what she would say, but well, she seems to be worried that Cielo who was seeking salvation would feel delusional or betrayed after knowing about her. After all, what was in front of her was the very being that they have been worshiping for a long time now.
I understand. I know that we enshrined you without your permission. I also know a lot about what happened in the past since Ive been reading books about past literatures. I was skeptical because the said being was nowhere to be found. But now that I have actually proven that such legendary being exists, I somehow wanted for you to be our Support without realizing the burdenIm really sorry for being such an unnecessary burden
When Cielo bowed her head to apologize, La Veil was surprised by that. After all she was expecting her to seek salvation or ask for help like the usual worshippers do, without thinking about her feelings. Well, after listening to the stories about what happened to La Veil before, it would have been inevitable for her to think that way. However, La Veil was still troubled by the unexpected response.
At that time, I knew that the masters were inferior to the Demon King.At best, I was the only one that they could rely on at that time. However, I couldnt understand the concept of trying to survive that the masters were talking about even if they joined together.Probably, if not for how I am now, I still wouldnt be convinced that anything like that matters. Thats why I ran away, because I was ashamed of myself, I am not a noble being worthy to be enshrined and worshipped the way they see it. So you dont need to apologize
The two faced each other as they talked. It seems like both sides have reasons that are just contradicting each other. However, they no longer need to hide how they feel.
Right now, I am just La Veil. And you are just Cielo. I wont be the Holy Dragon of La Veil Radd, not now nor in the future. However, if humans believe that I could bring them salvation, then I will try to see it happen with my own hands
Yes
But well, if there are people that actually need help in front of me, and my Master is willing to help them, then Ill be happy to lend a hand. Thats how it is
La Veil smiles as she smoothly caresses Cielos head. As she turned her face towards me, I smiled and gave her a thumbs up in response.
I want Cielo to be allied with La Daria so we will also be saving La Veil Radd. Well do our best to help
Is what she said
HaiThank you very much. Im really grateful
Listening to our conversation, Mika hugged Cielo after. Mika was also in tears but she was smiling as she sensed that her best friends heart is now at ease.
Its a good thing that the misunderstanding was settled without problems. Now they can be much more open to each other. Well, we havent really told the kids about us yet.
Everyone Aidle-senseisFairy Lessonsare about to start gather here first before we start out departure
Hai
Well as expected, some of the children were quite surprised and some of them looked as if they were moved. Umm, Im only going talk about what fairies are like normally though? However, after what Forna told me, I was quite amused about what the tales about fairies were like. When it comes to what I think about though, the very existence of this world would be the fantasy itself
Well then, first is that we are not humans. Considering that, are you still willing to follow me? If anybody doesnt want to continue, well escort them back to the entrance
Were fine!!
Considering the situation, I have expected this answer, but it sure is very nice to listen to their uniform reply. I was so happy about it that it felt as if tears would fall out of my eyes. I patted the heads of the children who agreed with me with a smile, and told them to get ready for our departure once more.
Also, I have finally checked my status after all those level ups, something that didnt happen for quite a while now. Ah, this is already going insane.

My attention was drawn to the Awakening+ part close to my name
Nope, lets not think about it. This time after all, we were kind of in a pinch because I couldnt use magic, so the growth of my physical abilities is Lets just say it makes it easier for me to protect everyone. Though if possible, I want to stop this ridiculous way of level grinding.
Next is, why do I have a Divine Sword sword skill? Why is it in stage 1? No, its definitely because that weird sword is similar to a holy sword or maybe something else. But I definitely dont need something like that
Divine Sword1st Stage
Allows the use of Holy Attribute Magic.
That was the only description displayed. Speaking of Holy Attribute Magic, is it something similar to what Kousaka was using. Will it be similar to what the heroes are using, or will I be able to unlock more abilities after reaching certain stages?
I went to ask Mika.
At the moment we arrived in this world, we were already able to use the effects of our Holy Swords?
There were no stages?
I dont remember anyone having such conditions. Or rather, the sword that Aidle was using was a Holy Sword?
No It was only a sturdy sword we found when we bought equipment for La Veil
If I knew that it was a Holy Sword, I would have destroyed it on the spot
Just how much do you hate Holy Swords? But well, Im just glad that I didnt get the title of Hero. Though it also adds more questions as to how I was able to learn to wield the Holy Sword? For now, I took a look again at Mikas Status.
Hero
A title given by the goddess to Heroes of the World, and is manifested by fulfilling missions given by the goddess
Ooh, so I wont be able to get it. That makes me feel relieved. After all, even if I am also a reincarnated person, I seem to have gone through a different process. I dont have a mission nor know anything about it. Freedom is the best after all
For the time being, I dont really need this sword so can I throw it away?
That should be for the better
Eh, youre throwing it away!?
Hoooooooo~~yoisho!!
And so I threw the sword beyond the horizon. I only used it because it was a good sword and bought at almost zero price. Its just the right time to change to a new regular weapon.
I could hear the sound of the sword hitting the ground from a distance. Mika on the other hand tried to tell me something in a hurry, but I didnt really understand it. Now then, time to refresh my mind andhuh?
Me: With far sightI thought I was just imagining it but
Mika: With eyes shining in excitementWhat is that function? How envious!!
La Veil, who had a bitter smile as if she had already given up: That seems interesting master, it seems like you have created an infinite projectile weapon
Cielo: Who was panicking, You! What if we suddenly receive divine punishment!?
Ahhhh. It was definitely using the skill as a beacon to return. I wonder if I could erase the Divine Sword skill with Fairy Magic.Gyaaa the moment I attempted it, I was assaulted by a feeling as if my head was going to explode.
AidleGood Morning
Sigh, it cant be helped. Arena is also finally up
Hmm?
Do you still like me even if I ended up with this?
I like Aidle always, you know1
Arena who came out of my hood whispered happy words to my ear, which healed my depressed self, and so we enjoyed our meal for the day. As for the swordwell, it was a sturdy blade so it will be useful at least.
Alright, time to prepare and make sure that we dont do anything out of the ordinary for today.
Seriously, this Divine Sword is quite sturdy and wont even chip after I swing it at full powerConverted all status to ATK
Now that I think about it, you were able to easily crush that heros Holy Armor with your bare fistsIs this weapon really something that belongs in this world?
Ummm, you two. Dont you know that the power of the Holy Sword depends on the power of the owner?
I immediately threw it into the horizon once more, but once again, the Holy sword came back.2
