Volume 2 - CH 247

I don’t know how hard it is to ride that flying dragon, but that’s only what I know when I see Jigal practicing.

When the dragons have finished eating, Jigal starts practicing.

“Hey. Why do you want Jiggle to ride the flying dragon?

“The main reason is to move around. The distance that can be traveled by the church’s magic circle is very limited. Even if you accept requests and improve your level in a place such as this, you’ll only get the same kind of requests.”

“Then why? Are you saying that you want him to learn how to ride for requests that go to places that can’t be reached by magic circle?”

“Something like that. It would take too long to get there by carriage alone.”

Well, it is true that this method of transportation can certainly get you to many places quickly.

It’s obviously faster than a horse.

Speaking of which, there are a lot of places where you can’t use a magic circle for gathering requests.

I haven’t received many requests yet, so I don’t know about that kind of thing, but if Yurie, an S-rank adventurer, says so, then it must be so.

I should probably keep this information in mind.

I might as well know where it is when I accept a request.

Jigal gets on the flying dragon under Roze’s guidance.

It seems that he doesn’t have any particular aversion to just getting on it.

I wonder what the problem is.

As I watched, the flying dragon began to walk.

Lacc is walking slowly, but …… something about his back is concern me….

Halfway there, it raises its upper body and drops Jigal off its back.

“Whoa!”

Jigal manages to regain his position and landing on the ground, but then he sighs loudly.

Apparently, he has been repeatedly done the same thing.

“Why can’t he do anything about it?”

“He’s probably trying to taunt him. First of all, Lacc is a male.”

“……eh, is that really relevant?”

“……”

Say something.

But is that even possible?

I guess there are some things that do happen, but …….

Jigal tries to ride it a couple of times, but ends up getting dropped.

Yurie says he’s being played, but what can he do to avoid being played?

Not sure what I have to do.

Thun thun thun thun

“Hmm?”

Something poked me from behind.

I looked and saw a wingless mounted dragon poking me with its mouth.

They seemed to be scared of me until a moment ago, but now they were interacting with me normally.

But one of them still seems to be scared.

What is it?

I tried to pet it by touching its chin or something.

“……eh?”

“It’s pretty smooth huh.”

“……, why are you able to pet them normally?”

“Hm? Eh, did I do something wrong?”

“No, it’s just ……”

I don’t know the name of this guy, but I’m quite happy to stroke it.

I remember this feeling somewhere, but I don’t know where. ……

The other dragon, which had been afraid of me, came closer to me.

It seems that it is still looking at me, but it sits close to me.

They are quite cute in this way, but they were impressive when they came close to me.

I was a bit taken back when I saw that, but then the mounted dragon pushed its face in toward me with a big yelp.

Wait, stop it!

Don’t push, don’t push, don’t push!

“Nuoaaah!”

“Why do they like you so much, ……? That’s not normal.”

“Just help me! W-whoaaah?!”

One mounted dragon grabbed me in its mouth and threw me into the air.

After being blown a little higher, I fall down by gravity, but my feet didn’t touch the ground.

Thump!

I was put on the back of a mounted dragon.

My groin is so sore.

If I wasn’t asexual, I wouldn’t be able to move for a while.

“What are they doing to me …………?”

“Ha-ha-ha! You are playing with you!”

Come on, what the hell are you talking about?

Why did these guys suddenly start doing this?

“Just what the hell is wrong with you, ……?”

“Garu~u! [Ricc!]”

“Ha? What the ……!”

Wait!

I can tell what this guy is telling me!

Eh, how come, how come, how come?!

No, but maybe I misheard it.

Wait, let me check it out …….

“Hey, Yurie. Is this guy’s name Ricc?”

“You heard it from Jigal-kun? Yes, it is.”

“……”

Seriously?

This guy seriously spoke …… No, it’s not that he spoke, it’s more like his cry has a language for some reason.

I can only vaguely understand it if I only listen to it now.

This is very similar to the feeling of looking at …… letters and somehow being able to read them.

L-let’s try to talk with this guy a little more. ……

“Ricc. So …… can you put me down ……?”

“Ghafu-u! Gruaaaa! [This guy! Understand us!]”

“Ha? Hold-!? Ghuaaaah!!!?”

Ricc runs off with the other mounted dragon.

I instantly felt a pain around my neck, partly because of the abruptness of it.

This mounted dragon is faster than I had imagined.

I think it is moving about three meters per step.

Moreover, the ride was extremely uncomfortable.

Ups and downs, left and right, it was constantly shaking.

My neck!

Stop, Ricc, slow down a little!

“Stop, goddamn it! Just stop and explain what you wanted to-! Ouch ouch oouch!”

It ain’t stopping!

And it suddenly stopped right after I thought that.

It stopped so suddenly that I was thrown into the air.

I was so confused and didn’t know what was going on that I failed to land on the ground.

But it seems I hit something else, not the ground.

“Grua!”

“Gohu!”

“Whoa!”

I hit Lacc, and Jigal, who was on it, fell off, and I hit my back and rolled on the ground.

Only Jigal seems to have landed neatly.

That’s hella painful. …….

Just what in the world was that ……?

“Garu- ……”

“Whoops.”

I opened my eyes and saw Lacc’s face in front of me.

It seemed to be staring at me, but for some reason it wasn’t scared of me at all.

I pushed it away with my hand because it was so close to my face.

“You’re in the way.”

“Gafu! ……!!?”

The moment I put my hand on its nose, it moved backward as if it sensed something.

Its body was shaking and it was frightened.

Suddenly, the other three looked at Lacc with a look of not understanding.

Lacc was still glaring at me, but it did not move closer from a certain distance.

Roze hurriedly approached Lacc’s place, but the trembling did not stop when Roze, the owner, came closer.

“Gurhyuaa….. [That guy is a bully….]”

“…… gawawaa [Scold]”

“…… you mean, me?”

The two mounted dragons nodded their heads slightly.
