Chapter 94: Gathering of Dragon Kings and Gathering of People

As we started walking, Anne’s gaze focused on Ramiyuros who was carrying all my boxes of apples.

「By the way, who is the one who turned into a dragon? They have quite a lot of magic…」

Oh, that’s right. Anne doesn’t know about Ramiyuros.
I thought as Hesty responded in my stead.

「This is, the Sky Dragon King. Ramiyuros.」
「Oh is it really!? Nice to meet you, I am the Earth Dragon King and my name is Anne.」

Anne bowed politely…but Ramiyuros smiled bitterly.

「‘Nice to meet you…huh? Don’t you remember I took care of you along with Hesty when you were young?」
「R-Really!?」

It seems like a lot happened to this trio in the past.
It looks like these two have experience raising kids huh…
Setting aside Ramiyuros, Hesty seems like the caring type.

「Fumu fumu, I’d like to hear more about that but……」

Anne said while looking ashamed.

「That’s right, I need to report to Dianeia about any new Dragon Kings arriving in the area.」
「Oh, so that’s your duty? Sounds like a job and a half.」
「No no, Dianeia has helped me with various things. Well then Daichi-sama, would you mind if I borrowed Ramiyuros-sama for a while? I’d like to take her to report if that’d be alright?」

I don’t know why she’s asking me…but I don’t really mind.
I looked at Ramiyuros and she looked a bit troubled.

「What’s wrong Ramiyuros?」
「Un, well if I went ahead, then I wouldn’t be able to carry the luggage. I was wondering if it’d cause you trouble Daichi-san.」
「Oh, so that’s what it was. I can have the golems carry it so don’t worry.」

She’d helped us get here easily so I can just make some golems to finish off the trip.
I should make their bodies. They’d be the normal large sized golems, so I think they should be able to carry the twenty boxes pretty easily.

「As always, you’re quick to come up with a new plan. This isn’t even your magic power spot……」
「Well, I’m used to it. ——Ok, I’ll do some simple molding, and everything should be fine.」

I mounted the golem’s shoulder…now all that’d be left would be to carry the boxes.

「We’ll be alright here, so don’t worry and go ahead.」
「O-okay.」
「Then excuse us for going ahead. We will see you in a while.」

Anne said and took off with Ramiyuros towards the castle.

「……well then, let’s get going to the store.」

We set off in their footsteps as we continued on to the city.
****************************
We continued into town with the golems carrying our luggage.
My store was right near the castle so I wanted to look at the town as we traveled there. That was how it should’ve been but,

「Somehow…the streets look pretty empty…is it my imagination?」

There were plenty of people when we entered town, but it seemed like the area in front of my golems was pretty barren.
Actually it seemed like my golems were the center of attention.
I didn’t think that wooden golems would be that rare of I sight…I wonder what’s going on.

「Umm, I’ll tell you. Golems, this large, are usually, impossible.」
「Really?」
「n, war golems, are a little smaller than, these. Normally, they can’t move well, if they’re this big.」

I’ve never seen war golems so I can’t compare…but I understand.
I finally get it.

「Wow! Amazing! Are they from the circus?」
「Amazing!! I wonder how many people are inside of them?」

I heard cheers from around me.
I looked at the ends of the street and saw people looking at the golems with eyes that glittered like those of children.

「Well, it’s rare that they have things that are so interesting come to town.」
「Oh, I kinda understand how they feel.」
「Also, well, your body lets off so much magic power, that the people who can feel it, avoid you.」

Hesty pointed and I saw some people dressed in swords and armor. They were adventurers that seemed disciplined, they moved smoothly and naturally. They seemed to be knights from another city.

They walked down the road and when they saw me, they tried to keep as much distance as they could.

「The people, who avoid you are strong, and the ones who don’t are normal people, confident people, or idiots. But still…this town has quite a lot of strong, people. They are properly, keeping their distance.」
「Well……there’s a lot I’d like to say, but this does make it easier to get to the shop so I’ll leave it as it is for now.」

And so we continued to travel towards the store on the golems.
