「What? You want to go to Raiotto’s village?」

Rēko, who was shaken awake from her nap by Ariante, rubbed her eyes with a bitter face.

「Yeah. It’s urgent, I have something I want to find.」

「Why do I have to go out for your investigation?」

「I have permission from Rēvendia.」

「Tell me that first. If it’s Evil Dragon-sama’s command, I’ll accompany you to the ends of the world.」

I smiled and nodded to Rēko, who looked at me for confirmation.

「Please, Rēko. I have something to do there, so do listen carefully to what Ariante says.」

「Understood. I’ll make sure I’ll accomplish this mission.」

I will remain at this cave.

I don’t know why, but I shouldn’t get too close to people if I became a demon. The worst could happen if I ran out of control.

At that point, there is the Hunt God, Sousou, and the Saintess here. So even if something goes wrong with me, they can deal with it. Doradora, who has been lying down for a long time due to lack of magic power, will be counted out.

「Then, please, Ariante.」

「Yeah. I’ll be back as soon as I get some clues.」

As she said so, Ariante touched Rēko’s shoulder. And when I said “please” to Rēko, she teleported to the village by activating some mysterious space magic.

「…fuh. I didn’t think that I would become a demon. I hope Ariante finds something.」

「You, are unexpectedly calm.」

「It’s not like I’m calm, I just don’t really feel like it.」

To be honest, the feeling of my body is the same as usual. Besides, even though I became a demon, I might become a god later like the Saintess and Sousou, so I don’t feel so sad. I might be treated as the god of weed processing.

「Wait, Rēvendia. You shouldn’t look down on being a demon, since demons inevitably sprout aggression against humans.」

「That’s right, you know. You knew how evil of a demon I was, don’t you.」

Both the Saintess and Sousou-san nodded. But why, I wonder? It’s not really convincing to be told that by these two.

However, If I say that right to their face, they might get offended, so I looked at Doradora who was sleeping on the ground,

「But, even though Doradora-san is a demon, he seems to be getting along with humans, right?」

「That’s, not getting along. He’s being trained. Pity.」

I groaned at the Hunt God’s remarks that hit the target. Certainly, he may just be getting pulled along by Ariante and Rēko.

Sousou also looked at Doradora with sympathy.

「Weak demons can be subdued with force, but it’s rare for such a strong dragon to become so quiet…」

It’s probably the result of the strong trauma inflicted by Rēko.

Here, the Saintess yawned.

「But, it’s still a big problem if Lizard-san becomes a demon. You won’t be able to come to my town to play.」

「Won’t it be okay if that chibikko make some holes so he could pass through the barrier?」

「Uuun… I’ll be a little surprised if that happens. Do knock before you make a hole.」

And then.

「!」

My body felt dread.

I felt a terribly unpleasant sign from the entrance of the cave.

「Ev-Everyone! Someone is approaching!」

I hurriedly called to the Saintess and the rest, but all of them tilted their heads.

「Is it an adventurer?」

「But, there is no one, scheduled to visit, today.」

「I can’t hear anything but… should I look for it for the time being?」

Certainly, there is no sound from footsteps. However, I can feel a terrifying presence burning my skin.

For a herbivorous lizard, it might just be a feeling peculiar to the weak.

I stare at the entrance of the cave, suppressing my quickening heartbeat.

The shadow of the intruder soon emerges from the twilight of the inside.

When I saw “It”, I was terrified.

—this is bad.

I think that my eyes have improved to some extent after meeting strong people such as Rēko and Yoro-san.

And those eyes of mine were telling me.

Even with the saintess and the rest, they cannot beat “it”.

And even if Doradora were to revive and join the battle it will be just a drop of water to a burning stone. All of them would be killed instantly.

Only Rēko can compete with “it”.

No.

If it’s the me right now, maybe I could.

「Everyone, I’ll get rid of “it”, so I’ll go!」

Shivering, I formed the black wings on my back. The magic power can be used according to my image after all.

If I had Rēko-like magic power dwelling in me, I might be able to overcome this situation.

Remembering the moment when I fought Yoro-san, I inspired myself.

Ignoring the voice of restraint echoing from the cave, I rushed toward “it”.
