Chapter 104: Dangerous, dangerous

“That was actually just a front. But that guy was incredibly strong. I was so surprised, look, I got a bit cut here see? Also, that katana had an amazing endowment. I still haven’t been able to release the carved seal it gave me you know? Well, at first, I was planning on just patting him lightly. But there were other guys coming, so I was troubled. I unintentionally defeated him. It may not serve as an apology, but I did leave some traces that were easy to follow and I gave him a protection spell, so his safety was assured”

With a strangely amiable smile, the so called Guild Master entered the visitors’ reception room. It was late at night, so I had Mio pour tea and now the three of us are facing him in our seats. Shiki has not returned yet. The talk with Rona-san must have prolonged.

This was an apology to Lime, so I was thinking about calling him, but he soon said that was only a front and turns over his sleeve, showing the faint remains of a wound in his elbow as he happily talks about it. Also, he really talks a lot. He is a person I just can’t understand what he is thinking. I get a feeling he is trying to explain that the fight with Lime was kind of an accident. He is fast-talking with a smile on his face, so just trying to hear him out is a chore.

“And well, about the real reason I came here. Ah, that’s right. Hey, the kimono Nesan there, this place has a peculiar fruit right? Can you bring those too along with the tea? I haven’t tried them yet you see”

The topic also changes so often. He looks the same age as me, but looking at his way of talking and behavior, I feel female-like characteristics. But, how to say it, he is a person that just engulfs you in his pace. I don’t know if this is part of his plan or what, but he is blurting out a lot of information. For example, the words katana and kimono.

Moving the corner of her eyes in a displeased manner, Mio doesn’t get up from her seat and just glares at him. But he doesn’t show a single trace of being agitated by her intimidation.

I exhale once.

[Mio, please prepare them for him]

“… Understood. Please wait for a bit” (Mio)

“Iyaa, I am looking forward to those. While you are at that, please bring more tea. Do you have a different flavor? If there is, please bring a different one, Oneesan”

Nonchalantly. At the other side of the closed door, I could feel the blood thirst around the place where Mio is. She is totally angered. I understand her feelings. Tomoe also has a protruded vein that pulsates every time he says something, and looks like she is displeased as she maintains her silence. I also don’t want to go along with this pace forever. Let’s quickly move the conversation.

[Now then, Guild Master-dono, could you tell us your business?]

“Aw Raidou-kun. No, should I call you Makoto-kun? Calling me Guild Master-dono, don’t treat me like a stranger please. Ah, there’s also no need to use written communication. I am not a hyuman after all”

?!

Hey hey.

[Sadly, I don’t understand what you are trying to say]

“Ahahaha, so cute Makoto-kun. Your writing is crumbling a bit you know? You are unexpectedly the panicky type huh. Just talk to me normally. You can, right?”

I tried my best to answer normally, but it seems I still showed my agitation. I still have a long way to go.

But, this guy, just what in the world is he?! Even if it is true that he is the Guild Master of the Adventurer Guild, there’s no way there’s someone that can know so much about me.

Also, the guilds are a system that has been in this world since long. Even in the books I read at the library, there were descriptions of the Adventurer Guild that was born in Elysion. In short, it is clearly sided with the Goddess. In that case, I have already been found out by the Goddess?!

“Fufufu, that face. Could it be, you are thinking that your existence and information has been exposed to the Goddess?”

“?!”

He can even read my mind?!

“Bull’s eye huh. You can be at ease. The Goddess has not grasped your present condition. Well, she is guilty of a lot of things after all. She is currently in a situation where she can’t move much. At that rate, it is probably going to take a while to make the groundwork”

“… You, what are you?” (Makoto)

“Heh~! Makoto-kun, that’s how your voice sounds! Nice. The voice of a man that has a bit of youth left. I like it. That’s right, if I remember correctly, Makoto-kun was a high school student. Still being a student, it must have been hard on you after coming to this world right?”

What’s up… with this guy? Seriously, what’s up with him?!

He knows all my details. Not only that, he certainly has information of my previous world as well!

I began to feel uncomfortable at the boy that has been talking to me since the beginning with a smile on his face. My field of vision narrows. This is bad. I can tell that I am being swallowed by the other party. Every time I talk, I can tell from his smile that he is feeling happiness about it. I feel nauseated by that.

“Don’t mess around and just answer. What are you?” (Makoto)

My voice trembles. Damn it, I’m scared. I can tell that my words are losing their composure.

“Calling me “you”, that makes me sad. I am the Guild Master. I have not lied to you”

“… I can only call you with “you”. I don’t even know your name after all” (Makoto)

And yet, he knows me in detail. Is he an acquaintance of the Goddess? He at least seems to be acquainted with her. He certainly doesn’t seem to be hyuman. My words work on him after all. In that case, the one that works as the head of the Guild that controls the adventurers is not hyuman. In this world of hyuman supremacy, is that even possible?!

“Ah, sorry! That’s right. I didn’t tell you my name. Makoto-kun, please forgive me for my rudeness. Then, I will introduce-”

“Stop with the farce” (Tomoe)

“… Cutting in as one’s talking and saying it’s a farce, that’s not peaceful, blue haired samurai-dono”

“Hmph! You know my name and still play the fool. What was that about not lying to Waka-ja. Even though from the beginning you were lying about being a Guild Master” (Tomoe)

“Yareyare. Did you sleep so much in the wasteland that you even forgot how to talk properly, Shen?”

“You too, there’s no trace of your previous self. “Myriad Colors” Dragon, Root” (Tomoe)

Eh?

◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆

“Root? Myriad Colors? Uhm, this guy… is a dragon?” (Makoto)

Is how it is right? It came from Tomoe’s mouth, so there’s probably no mistake. But I practically, no, I can’t feel a dragon presence from him at all.

“Yes, Waka. This guy is a full-fledged superior dragon. And a prime superior at that. Said to have gained wisdom and polished his skills, and hasn’t lost in his lifetime. Myriad colors means he has ten thousands of colors and it’s Root’s pseudonym” (Tomoe)

“Aah, not only did you intrude in my introduction, but you also exposed my name when I am here. What a boring thing you have done. You samurai junkie” (Root)

Prime superior dragon. An undefeated dragon. This guy is?

“Say whatever you want. You who tries to deceive Waka with a cool face, has no right to say anything to me” (Tomoe)

“Yareyare, I don’t want you who only slept the whole time and had no interest in the world, to say things like deceive, that would bring about misunderstandings” (Root)

Guild Master, no, the supreme dragon Root is talking to Tomoe with a stricter mood than with me.

A superior dragon, an existence that most hyumans and demi-humans would live their whole life without being able to see them. In the time that I was learning things in the library, I understood just how rare are the existences called superior dragons.

The peak of dragons. They are not affected by the passage of time, and when they grow old, they can give birth to themselves again and continue existing.

If I remember correctly, the names that were written in the library were: “Mitsurugi”, “Bakufu (Waterfall)”, “Sazanami (Sand Wave)”, “Akari (Crimson Light)”, “Yomatoi (Night Clad)”; those five. Myriad colors is the first time I have heard of it. I couldn’t find anything about the invincible Shen either. <About the names, don’t know which one you prefer>

They practically never get involved with hyumans, but there have been individual dragons that live close to hyuman territory. In rare cases, there are times when they lend their strength. When lending that power indirectly, people call it the dragon’s blessing.

Currently, the monarch guard knights of Gritonia have the blessing of Sazanami.

To have already encountered three of those super rare dragons, just what kind of luck do I have? The Invincible, the Sword Saint and the Myriad Colors. Tomoe, Lancer and Root! If approached unskillfully, this type of encounters could have killed me. A game where you encounter a boss class enemy while hiding inside a town, is definitely going to make people flame the creator. It reminds me that reality is not as kind as games.

“Did you abandon your dwelling? It was already in ruins when I saw it” (Tomoe)

“Yeah, a long time ago. It’s probably been like that since a thousand years ago. Are you done now? I want to talk with Makoto-kun. Because of Shen, there’s been misunderstandings, so I want to clear them out” (Root)

… The scales are way too different. One thousand years he says. Also, he was smiling that much at me, and yet, he barely raises the corners of his mouth at Tomoe and his eyes were not smiling at all. His attitude is too different.

“What do you mean by misunderstanding? There’s still several things I want to ask you. And also, I have already thrown away the name Shen. Its Tomoe now, remember that” (Tomoe)

“So noisy. Just because Makoto-kun is here, you are playing the strong one huh. Yes yes, Tomo-e right?” (Root)

“TO.MO.E!! Next time you get that wrong, I will cut your head off!” (Tomoe)

“Sorry Makoto-kun. This chick, she is a dragon but an eccentric one. She is definitely causing you troubles all the time right?” (Root)

“Listen, Root!” (Tomoe)

No well, aren’t you pretty weird yourself? I just, feel pretty sure about that.

Or more like, ignoring Tomoe and nonchalantly talking with me, he is quite the free dragon. If he is the peak of dragons, that means he is like the boss of Tomoe?

“I haven’t lied to Makoto-kun. I want you to please believe in me, Makoto-kun” (Root)

“H-Hah~” (Makoto)

“Something like deceiving you, that’s an outrageous misunderstanding. My feelings are more pure” (Root)

Right after hearing that dangerous speech, a sharp edge was pushed out in between my face and the face of Root that had gotten closer to mine. The sharp edge of the single edged sword was facing at Root’s side. Tomoe, that’s a short sword. Don’t draw that out so easily. If you are going to draw out, draw out a long sword instead.

“… You bastard, you have really changed a lot. There’s no trace of your old self that went shouting around about rules and discipline” (Tomoe)

Rules? Discipline? Both of those words didn’t fit that guy called Root, no, it doesn’t fit dragons.

“Tomoe, you also changed. You showed no interest in anything and had zero trajectory, a dragon that only slept. But instead of being inelegant, you should have learned something before that, don’t you think?” (Root)

“I am no match for your wildness. This is something that’s been in my mind for a while… tell me that first. You, since when did you “become a man”?” (Tomoe)

???

“300 years ago maybe. I was tired of being a woman all the time. And so, I tried being a man. And it was comfortable. The first time I embraced a woman, I was deeply moved” (Root)

Tired? Of your gender? Eh?

I don’t understand anything anymore. To begin with, you are a superior dragon, so things like kids have no meaning at all. Of course, embracing and being embraced should be pointless as well, right?

“Tried becoming… you say? You shouldn’t be able to become one just by wanting it. And in the first place, I haven’t heard of a superior dragon making children” (Tomoe)

Indeed Tomoe. Even if you say it as if changing toys, there’s no way we can understand it.

“I was able to, so accept it. Also, I stopped rebirthing. I slowed my aging to the very limits and am thinking of enjoying this world. But you know, the ecstasy you get as a woman is actually bigger. That’s why I got tired of being a man pretty fast, however, my world changed in that fateful day!” (Root)

Why are you still talking about ecstasy? Or more like, is that true? So women feel it better than men huh. I have learned something… useless. When I think about it, I end up going “and so what?” Seriously, even if you talk about it as if you were talking about your favorite sport, it’s still troublesome.

“I don’t really want to know about your change of standards in that perspective though…” (Tomoe)

Same, Tomoe. It is so overwhelming I can’t bring this feelings into words, but I completely agree with you.

“One time, I had the chance to have a relationship with a man you see. How should I say it? Fulfillment of heart, drug to the body, maybe? Well anyways, I tasted a happiness from inside me that I never felt before! No well, I later returned to being a woman and tried it out between women, but as expected, it didn’t compare to the shock of that time” (Root)

… Root continues to talk excitedly words that I don’t understand one bit about. Talking about men this and women that, I just don’t get what’s happening anymore. Someone please tell me.

“The ultimate sensation a person of the same sex provides, that love! I trembled in excitement! When connecting bodies, there’s nothing compared to the one between men!” (Root)

Can you… please stop your speech already? My ears are rotting. My brain is also in danger.

“From what I see, Makoto-kun is inexperienced right? Don’t worry, I also love those as well. If you want your first time to be with a woman, I am fine with becoming a woman you know? No matter which body, I have the confidence of captivating you in a single day!!” (Root)

What are you saying?! Don’t blush your pure white skin! I don’t get you! Don’t be so insistent, it just makes me feel sick! I’m not inexperienced! I-Inexperienced? Uhm, not having experience right? Ah, he is certainly right.

“I refuse!” (Makoto)

I stand up from the sofa and put my distance from him. Luckily, he isn’t chasing. Instead, he retracts his body and sinks his body deeply into the sofa. He intertwines both hands in front of his abdomen.

“Being prejudiced is not good, Makoto-kun. My heart is that of a man and a woman you know? Just try it at least once, and if it doesn’t work, I will just give up” (Root)

You can still say that after your speech about captivating me in a single day?! Your sparkling eyes, just stop them…

I don’t intend to repudiate homosexuality. I don’t but, to coerce someone that’s not interested in it, I reject that! I don’t have any interest in that aspect!

“… You, what are you saying-desu no?”

Oh.

You didn’t need to return now, you know.

Mio, your timing is good, or more like, bad?

“Ah, the black Onee-san. Thanks for the tea and fruits” (Root)

Root is being Root and just getting happy looking at the contents of the tray Mio has.

“… What were you intending to do with Waka-sama?” (Mio)

“N? I was just seducing him a bit though?” (Root)

“Lovers’ tiff?!” (Mio)

“Because he is free. There should be no problems in me putting myself as a candidate right?” (Root)

“…”

Mio silently places the tray to the side. There was tea for the number of people here and cut fruit in a plate on that tray.

“Eh? If you leave them there, I can’t reach them though” (Root)

“Tomoe-san, this thing seems to be a dragon. Is there a problem if I do him in?” (Mio)

Pretty impressed that she could tell he is a dragon. After being told and concentrating on it, I can certainly feel it a bit though. But to see through him immediately, as expected of Mio’s instincts, terrifying.

“Well let’s see, this has to do with Waka’s chastity. We can’t let that happen. Mio, of course we do it” (Tomoe)

“Ara ra? Tte, even Makoto-kun?!” (Root)

I can tell that those two are going into combat stance. And I also do the same. This is one guy I have to repel. 100% for my sake.

“Root, I will at least hear your last will. There won’t even be bones left, so I will engrave it in your grave” (Tomoe)

“The meat of a superior dragon might be tasty. I will at least let you be of some use” (Mio)

“This is a threat like no other. I am sorry but, I will be bringing my all to eliminate you” (Makoto)

“W-Wait one second! Three at once is impossible. In the first place, today I didn’t come here to fight! Come on, calm down you three. Sorry, I messed around too much. Please let me fix the misunderstanding seriously. I beg of you, please” (Root)

Root lifts both hands and signals his surrender.

Just how serious is he really?

It’s the first time I have met someone of his type after all. It’s hard to infer his true intentions. Moreover, it is hard to believe in that serious face as well.

“If it’s about your out of order inclinations, we have already heard enough of it. There’s no need to explain it” (Tomoe)

“To try teaching Waka-sama such a dubious preference, there’s already no need to clear the misunderstanding. I don’t care. Your extermination is already set-desu” (Mio)

“No well, it was just a bit of skinship you know. Just touching has filled me already, so I won’t say it anymore. I want to talk regarding the topic of Adventurer Guild master and things like that, with the otherworldler Makoto-kun” (Root)

“… About the guild?” (Makoto)

Ah, the joke about being the Guild Master huh. There’s no way a pervert like this is the top of an organization. It may be a lie, but there’s still more?

Tomoe, Mio, and I have registered just in case. And Toa-san and the others are also members of that organization. If he wants to say something, I will just hear him out.

“That’s right, about the guild” (Root)

“Understood. If you are not going to mess around anymore, I will hear you out” (Makoto)

“Waka!” (Tomoe)

“Waka-sama…” (Mio)

“Mio, I don’t mind if it’s already cold, so bring the tea. Let’s hear what you have to say” (Makoto)

We once again sit in the reception 3 to 1.

Root also maintained his serious face and began talking about the Adventurer Guild.

  1. These people… ^^

    “Tomoe, that’s a short sword. Don’t draw that out so easily. If you are going to draw out, draw out a long sword instead.” Yes. The length of the sword is obviously the problem here. XD

    It’s wonderful to see how Root can instantly unite a team…against him.

    Enough random comments. Thank you for the chapter, Reigo-san. 🙂

    1. this guy might be the joker from batman
      he makes all the enemies fear him and then fear batman.
      now root
      he/she makes all of them fear for the chastity of makoto and then fear more the chastity of MAKOTO

  2. castidad en peligro ruuuuun makoto ruuuuuuuun
    gracias por traducir esto al ingles
    Chastity in danger ruuuuuuun makoto ruuuuuuuun
    thanks for translate this
    i love it from the 3 chapter
    the first 2 i was like
    what i am reading then boooom fallen in wastland i mean in love
    anyway thanks for your work/hobby

  3. Man, the author really managed to make me instantly hate this guy.
    Maybe he’ll grow on me, but probably not.

    Still, thanks for the chapter. 🙂

    1. Not even sure it’s bi cause it’s only interested in males… And it’s a it.

      I know there is a label for this, but god knows what.

  4. Regarding the names I like this format sorry for creating more work for you but with the Japanese and English side by side I can actually hear the names and understand their meaning xD

    1. She probably means in the context of reproduction and his resurrection. It’s obviously fun to them physically.

  5. Thanks for… the……chapter………

    More rare than a unicorn, a multi-sexual, thousands of years old, rainbow dragon. Who likes Girl on Girl and Guy on Guy. And has taken a liking to Makoto. The story is heading in the oddest direction ever.

  6. The whole chapter is about from the front door to some character intro while having a chat on the couch. thats all. Then leaving the juicy info to the next chapter.

    Thanks Rei, even in your exam season you still give us a chapter. Very much appreciated for the consistent effort.

  7. So, she was a woman, then turned into a man, then become tired of it and started go after mans again, so is she/he gay or just some weird standard hetero? I think either way makoto will start to use a sakai to repulse dragons around him.

    1. well, basically they were a woman on man, then a man on woman, then man on man, then woman on woman, now they are back on being man, hitting on Makoto and saying they’ll return to being woman if it’s what Waka-sama wants

      so it’s not gay, it’s even further than bisexual, it’s “let’s try everything-sexual”

  8. woman? man? yuri? yaoi? wat wut?
    my brain is like makoto… can’t understand the entire thing about this Dragon….
    (s)he suddenly spoke out all of it like a rainbow….. full colour ~ and full confusing….

  9. There are a few things a guy would defend with his life: his love, family, pride, honor, face, ass’ chastity…

  10. I think Root would be perfect for Trashmoki. They’re made for each other. I thought the gender bender stuff was interesting, but the behavior and attitude was 100% turn off. It goes to their place, acts like a fool/jerk, makes a move on Waka, pisses off everybody, then pulls the ‘wait, wait, I’ll be serious now crap’?! Root deserves to be with Trashmoki.

    1. I know right. He could’ve been a pretty fun guy, like a joker-type character, or the mature teasing type – y’know, him having lived many millenia. Nope. Let’s make him a grossly stereotyped hentai okama. Because obviously that’s soooo funny.
      Well, at least the serious chapter should be interesting.

  11. Well, I remember laughing at this chapter when I first read it via Google Translate. But thanks to Reigo-senpai, it’s even better. Root is one of the best characters thus far. And a safe spoiler, Makoto’s chastity is going to remain in danger for a long time, but still safe.

      1. well, i know two 4 digits servants who very much want to be his firsts, trying to get his virginity instead of them is courting death for sure

  12. The hentai dragon finally appeared….oh god i never expected for it to be this perverted…to add it’s even aiming for makoto…. Also just woke up from my last 2 days of sleep…

  13. Well damn! Should’ve seen someone like this coming eventually, but didn’t expect it to be a dragon! KILL HIM TO PROTECT WAKA’S CHASTITY!!!!

  14. One word for that guy: ANNOYING.

    Seriously, that was one of the longwinded, obnoxious character introductions ever. Hopefully the next chapter has interesting information.

  15. Root is more dangerous than any hidden boss I’ve yet encountered. I really would like to see how long he would last against those three.

  16. “I don’t understand anything anymore. To begin with, you are a superior dragon, so things like kids have no meaning at all. Of course, embracing and being embraced should be pointless as well, right?”

    After this chapter I’m convinced Makoto has a mind ofa 5 year old with regards to romantic relationships. It reeks of the author’s desperate attempt to flat out reject any romance in this novel, yet continuously throw female characters at him. Idk if it happens in the future chaps but, at the moment, Im terribly ill humored. If you don’t want any harem or love interest to show, then just don’t do it. No point in reminding the readers time and again.

    Im not irritated at the fact that Makoto isn’t interested. In fact, i don’t give a flying fuck and was just seeing if it happens in the far future. But. When you spend a whole friggin chapter about how he is soooo~ uninterested and soooo~ effin pure that it looked like you are talking about inappropriate things in front of your child with your housewife friends, it may seem humorous to most readers, it just feels wrong to me. There are tons of materials to use as a filler, Author-san can mostly use anything under the sun, but he just had to pick this one.

    1. Makoto has had no relationships, not even dating. He decided, for some reason that was not explained, that he wanted to be the one that fell in love with the female, not the other way around and that a female confessing to him was a turn-off. Can happen in teens that they get weird ideas and stick to them for no particular reason but they get stubborn and don’t want to change their mind.

      Makoto had a girl confess to him and turned her down because he had not fallen for her first and confess to her. He probably read a book or saw a movie where the guy confessed to the girl and it got locked into his mind that that is the more romantic way for things to unfold. His mindset could be overcome if a girl was stubborner then him and just kept at it till he relented. Unfortunately no one has tried that yet, although the girls around him seem more like the kind that will not take no for an answer, long term, and will keep after him. He is kind of busy right now though and they are willing to wait. The sisters might go for him agressively, as soon as they can figure out an angle to hit him from.

    2. Its not purity that the author is building up to I think. I think the point the author is trying to make is actually one of sexual repression, the main character does not want to fuck mio or Tomoe but they wont anyone else who fucks him live. This leaves him repressed and I think the dam will burst soon, plus roots a guy and no female beside tomoe and mio have made any serious moves yet. Stufff remains to be seen before we judge it as the author shoving that purity with no motive crud down our throats.

    3. I agree. It’s a siily, over used, and annoying trope prevalent in way~ too many LN. I am beginning to see why ppl hate the harem genre. A 100+ chapter cock tease aimed at the middle school reader demographic is annoying. I don’t care that Makoto has a completely unrealistic view of human courtship. That’s fine. Please don’t put him in a harem situation with tons of females that are interested in him, then constantly remind us of his unrealistic view.

      BTW, I have never met a real life human that said that they could only court someone if they were in absolute love with them. Definitely not a high schooler who has no real concept of what a relationship even is.

      Just stop reminding us of it Author-sensei. Get on with the plot. The joke has expired and lost it’s flavor.

    1. No!!! Because no “Normal” person can be at the head of such a organization as the adventures guild!!

      Also, all mighty translator-sama I humbly thank you for this blessing you have bestowed upon us of another chapter 🙆🙇🙆🙇🙆🙇

      1. I agree. Strong adventurers are always eccentric (you gotta be to devote your life to that job). So it makes sense that the strongest would be the most eccentric.

  17. I have to agree with suzushina, For crying out loud…. Makoto is in his late teens, why is he being treated like some kid that was just introduced to sex. Come on, this is why i hate japanese novels sometime, creating massavie harems with literally no ending because the protagonist is fearful, embarassed, stupid enough to be like a kid that is pure and innocent…. THERE ARE LITREALLY SOO MUCH SEX NOW ADAYS EVEN KIDS KNOWS……

    This novel is good but the way Makoto acts is frustrating me sometimes… I mean he is OP for goodness sake , atleast have that to boost upyour self confidence to not be scared of everything that comes up to you….

    It just leaves a bad taste in my mouth when he acts like a scared rabbit. its alright if he doesnt know he was OP… But he does, he has beaten mio and tomeo for evidence if he still cant see that he atleast doesnt have to fear everything in the world.. And this novel will NEVER have any romance, that i can tell… Literally no point of giving hints of romance for fan service. Makoto’s attitude and temperment is the only downside to this otherwise great novel.

    1. He is OP but has a Goddess hunting for him to try and get him killed. He is OP but was almost killed in his first real fight. Of course he acts like a scared rabbit, a God literally has it out for him and the first serious fight he got into he lost several fingers and was close to bleeding to death.

      He will probably remain a nervous person until he knows what kind of powers are out there and has counters for them. When you have no defense to being literally picked up and dropped in a random place with no warning if you are found being nervous is a fairly normal response. When he has a way to deal with the Goddess randomly dropping him in unknown parts of the world, a way to counter the throught transmission blocker and some practice with using his abilites he is sure to calm down.

    2. That was just his first complaint, and Tomoe complained about the same thing. I don’t think it’s a matter of being “sacred”, I think it’s just that baby-making is obviously the primary point of sex.

  18. “This is a threat like no other”. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

    That was priceless! Thanks for the chapter!

    1. It’s you. To their world, all dragons are wackjobs. 🙂
      They gone so wackjob that people sees this as “normal” for them.
      Our standards are still high. 😛

  19. What an obnoxious character. Definitely need to be put in their place.

    And I don’t really mind him acting pure here. Nice to have a character not obsessed with sex, and when you meet an obnoxious pervert like this, it only seems natural to push them away.

  20. I knew it! from the talk about him being a dragon , plus the fact that he knew the bug, plus knowing tha makoto was an otherworldler. the only answer was: the other invincible dragon that lancer and tomoe talked about: the”myriad colors”

  21. that guy was a super pain in the ass, even if they were a member of the opposite sex, there’s no way i would lay my hands on him/her even if I didn’t know about that gender swap.

  22. “I am no match for your wildness. This is something that’s been in my mind for a while… tell me that first. You, since when did you “become a man”?” (Tomoe) —> Eh? What?

    Can you… please stop your speech already? My ears are rotting. My brain is also in danger.—> same here

    “From what I see, Makoto-kun is inexperienced right? Don’t worry, I also love those as well. If you want your first time to be with a woman, I am fine with becoming a woman you know? No matter which body, I have the confidence of captivating you in a single day!!” (Root) —> Pervert! a pervert dragon!

    “This is a threat like no other. I am sorry but, I will be bringing my all to eliminate you” (Makoto) —> I would react the same.

    Thanks for the chapter

  23. Thanks for translating this chapter, but well… That was long winded and this chapter was quite boring.
    Apart from the fact that it is a superior dragon and it seems to be a joker/crazy/unstable character, there not much in this chapter, only a lot a redundant stuff going around in a circle.

    To resume my feeling about this chapter, I think that the purpose of the author was to bring a “toxic sharp-bladed with a lots a goosebumps” feeling from this, but I felt just a “wonky and boring repetitive toy hammer, slowly going up and down with a lots of squeaky noises”…

    Could had been written better with a deeper impact and more concision but you can only blame the author for not managing well his effects again (as it’s not the first time that he (she?) failed to deliver while trying to work around a complicated narrative style outside of his strandard usual writing and expertise… Let’s hope it will be one the last).

  24. I think it’s not that Makoto have no interest in love, but he’s just value the felling. He doesn’t want a one-sided love. And just think, if Makoto is a type of MC that quick into bed relations, this novel will never be the same anymore. Other MC in another series that quick to something like sex and the like is just because they have the ‘pervert’ property in their personalities from the first, that or they are really already an adult (in mentality).

    Makoto is a high school student character with no ‘pervert’ property, but of course because he is a normal male, so he eventually will have that kind of interest as well.

    1. Agreed. Most ‘normal’ guys (even teenagers) don’t immediately try to bang every girl who walks past, even the guys who do hit on every girl they see. Unless the guy has personality issues, he’ll likely to imitate parental/adult guardian behaviors he’s watched growing up. Makoto described himself as living a happy life with his family (though being weak and sickly at first), so his natural inclination would be to find an emotional attachment to someone (female by his stated preference) before engaging in physical adventures, unless he would somehow be overwhelmed in an unusual circumstance. An example would be if he were to be in combat again, severely injured, escapes into Asora again, found by Mio, and during the healing process things becoming intimate while he’s disoriented.

  25. Unlike the others root dorsnt bother me much, actually think he/she’s a pretty fun character, i can understand the plight about how much he talks though, just doesnt bother me, or i should say im used to it, since i grew up with sisters who talked a mile a minute

  26. I dislike people with his character the most… The three of them should just gang up on him and let Mio cook a dragon meat feast in Azora. I have also heard that dragon scales and bones make good equipment.

    1. 1- Those were the names in the library. Makoto says he didn’t find anything about Shen, or Root right after;

      2- Virgin MC is an evil that assolates several LN’s, specially harem ones… sigh… let’s use logic here: if you are a 17 year old, and a gorgeous servant offers herself to you, would anyone here refuse?! Of course, if you aren’t gay or doesn’t already have a girl. I can understand Tomoe (thousands of years old, big sister type, it might be embarassing to approach… AT FIRST), but Mio is completely open and straight foward! Come on!

      1. About your second point there was an interesting view of the aftermath of accepting a sex offer from a unknown woman that had fallen from the sky in Empowered (an Adam warren’s comic) : Space MST that changed the guy in a putrid blob ;o) !

        They might be a lot a rotten apples in the ones too easy to get…

      2. actually, in our world there is something called STD’s. married couples generally have their blood tested before they seal the deal since it is possible to have an STD while still being a virgin.

        secondly, there are people who wants a relationship beyond just sex. relationships built on sex generally don’t end well. there are many reasons for a high divorce rate so it’s best to make sure you are willing to stick with someone for the rest of your life.

        i don’t disagree that Mio is a go though. even with the yandere side, i would have already started dating her by now even if i didn’t outright go straight for sex..

      3. @franckoa First of all, da fuk you reading?!😧 Second, would you recommend it? And third, that is the scariest std I’ve ever heard of.😨

      4. I understand your concerns.

        Indeed, if someone tries to seduce you from the get go, you can easily get suspicious… specially in a world where magic applies. Who know which STC’s (“C” stands for curse) you can get from a sleepover! All the more true if the original species stats still apply!

        However… that doesn’t really apply here. Makoto trusts them. He treats them as family. That’s just how close they are. After the inicial suspicions or fears, he opened up to the girls. So, is(are)n’t a (couple) wife(s) part of family as well? Makoto’s current inexperience is completely unjustified from my perspective!

        P.S. But, honestly… if that kind of thing bothers you… never, EVER read “Tale of wedding rings”… forget about being a failure as a ring king, that MC is a failure as a man…

  27. My god how can this MC be any more suck then he already is…..didnt the author lead us to believe that Sukontoes (Makoto) was a modern times 17 to 18 yr old teenager? HOW in the bloody damn hell can he be so damn stupid pure or what ever in regards to relations between men an women…..does the author really expect us to believe that a normal non mentally deficient teenager has never googled anything at all in regards to male an female body parts? Are we supposed to believe that he hasnt even been curious about his own body? Has he never had morning wood an even bothered to ask anybody why? This purity crap is getting out of hand really damn quickly…..im not saying i expect him to cram his ham into every clam he can find but gosh damn enough is enough……it was kinda funny an cute 50 or so chapters ago….now its just as stale as his personality….

    His constantly cower in fear mentality is getting old as well….i didnt expect him to be a chu feng or li feng…..but gosh damb after 105 chapters id hoped for some kinda growth but sadly its just not there

    Anyway ty 4 the chap

  28. I will try to defend makoto for the no-sex part.

    I think he refused the girls from his club because he has an inferiority complex
    he refused tomoe and mio because he don’t want their link to be altered by sex
    he refused root because he is a guy, and the reproduction question he ask was (I think) “if they can just lay eggs by themself, why do dragon have reproductive organ?”
    he see the rambrant sister either as girls under suspended bridge effect, or had order from their father to traite him well

    after that, he followed the whore (adventurer)
    he nearly accepted a proposition from a girl by his taste, condition of first wife that she refused (I think, I am not sure).

    Yes, he is not alpha but he is not dumb eithier.
    I like his behavor, because if I wanted a guy that fuck everything, tomoki would have been a better MC.

  29. true i have the feeling that everybodie hate tomoki but at the same time they want makoto to act like him and jump every woman.

  30. Makoto should have written his own scriptures (being of deity level) with an appropriate effect (read as curse). Then he could have inflicted them on the pervert dragon.

  31. Thx for the Chapter.
    Btw am I the only one, that think Makoto should just somehow force him into a her and add to harem. Just another perverted onee-san added would be kinda nice.

  32. ““The ultimate sensation a person of the same sex provides, that love! I trembled in excitement! When connecting bodies, there’s nothing compared to the one between men!” (Root)”

    Oh god… The BL character… Instead of Shiki becoming that way like Makoto feared, the BL character showed up in the middle of the night and blind-sided the party!!
    The readers too!
    wtf !
    Now I feel like the comment about Shiki was foreshadowing, even though Root showed up so randomly. Good job, author. You’ve made me unable to decide if I think this is random or not.

  33. wait… based on his conversation with makoto, he dont just capable of changing his gender but even can casually change it anytime he want to?

  34. I was honestly getting angry with his behavior, but it was so refreshing to for once, see Makoto going full Exterminatus along Tome and Mio xD

  35. And yes, because of this trait, because of his personality and fetichs is that I never understood how to feel about Root, it just to complex, I also don’t know if he really could enter the harem or things like that, Root is a total mess.

  36. Damn I forgot how much this guy marches to the beat of his own drum, considering that later on they simply learn to ignore his ramblings

  37. I R ROOT!
    The root of chaos!
    The root of disease!
    The root of disaster!
    The root of misunderstanding!
    The root of Groot!

  38. “This is a threat like no other. I am sorry but, I will be bringing my all to eliminate you”
    Lol makoto was just about to get serious

  39. I just remembered after like 2-4 years break why i dropped reading it, Makoto is so dumb xP he spotted trace of dragon on the place where root fought with that hyman ninja, and still didint get that root is dragon, even thought if he tried he could feel it?

    1. Yeah. I don’t really need a level of genius from MC, just have a brain at least…
      But well, i think i can continue reading this story for now

      1. i mean it doesn’t affect the story in the slightest;
        Plus he can totally beat off any dragon if he wishes to.
        So no need to think about things like that

    2. “he spotted trace of dragon on the place where root fought with that hyman ninja”
      Read the chapter again, root purposely left his trace so they can investigate where Lime was taken.

      “didint get that root is dragon, even thought if he tried he could feel it?”
      Root is just good at hiding it, but after they told him that he was dragon, he can connect the dots. It’s like someone told you a very subtle joke and you didn’t catch it, but after he reveal it you feel some revelation.

      Sure he is not smart, but your comment is bs.

    3. Again, he’s inexperienced. He’s literally still learning on the job. It pisses me of people still saying garbage like you’ve said. It gets old real fast. The info is there in the story. Just because you’re not picking it up, doesn’t mean it’s not there. o_ 0

      1. Him growing doesn’t change that he is still dumb, not my type of hero (and not a type of hero for at least 9 other people who liked my comment xP) so I can comment what I hate about him, pretty sure comments are made to share our feelings so if it pisses u off to read comments like that just skip over them ¯_(ツ)_/¯

        1. But, he’s not a hero. Being an MC doesn’t make you a hero. There are series with a main character where they’re the villain even or anit-hero.

          1. Hero not as super hero or white knight on white horse saving damsel in distress, but as main hero of this story xP Maybe it’s language difference, in my language u can say hero as both, but I meant main character not hero, my bad

          2. Understandable. I just assumed you meant Hero = hero since your English was good but I think that Makoto is doing good. Not sure how far you are but I’ll post a spoiler if you’re not as far if you wish to read.

            When he fights Sofia again later on, you can tell he grew since he was able to notice not only Sofia being charmed by Tomoki but also that Root was using her as a spy camera.

            Right now, he’s OP in his magic and strength and also still innocent to everything since things are going well. Like Root mentioned in the next chapter, Makoto hasn’t had any triggers for any explosive growth other than his fight with Tomoe, Mio, and Sofia.

            Later on, he has other trigger with his interaction with Rotsgards merchant guild and Rona’s betrayal (granted she only just left out info that wouldn’t be considered a lie).

          3. I’m pretty good with English, but most of my comments are written at night so I’m not focused at all and sometimes even forget what language I’m writing in 😂. About that spoilers i saw both of these moments and dropped far in future. I think this novel ain’t bad, but I got to fed up with japanese MC’s that mostly can’t say NO etc. And I will probably come back to it after some break 🤠

          4. If you come back, you’d be coming back at a good time about I’d say. From what I’m understanding, this series is on the last arc so should be completed soon. As far as not able to say, “no”, I guess the Japanese are the type who mostly do that? I’m unsure since I feel I’d be the same way (since I think my personality is probably close to his).

            I’m older now but at his age, I’d say it would be hard for me to say, “no”, unless it was something I couldn’t say, “yes”, too.

    4. That’s not dumb. You do know that some people are more experienced than others. Root has lived longer than Makoto and even Tomoe.

      Tomoe knows Root from their past. Mio is an instinct time so can’t use her as a comparison.

      If you ever watched anything where people need to track someone, sometimes those being tracked will fake their tracks because they know how. The fact that Makoto was able to notice after concentrating shows he’s able to grow.

      Heck, if you compare the other hero’s, they probably didn’t notice Root as a dragon (other than the trash guy since he has a dragon trainer by his side).

  40. “. To begin with, you are a superior dragon, so things like kids have no meaning at all. Of course, embracing and being embraced should be pointless as well, right?” What. The. Hell. Is wrong with you Makoto? xD

  41. Some have seem to miss this in the story. Root allowed his aura of a dragon to be felt. Which means it was to lead them to find Lime. Otherwise he normally hides his dragon aura. Also the mc is still learning on the job as it were. It’s why he’s reading so much. So he can learn as fast as he can about that world. And knowing about an being like root, is normally not something others know about. Because it’s even mentioned that normally superior dragons don’t deal with others. Even sleep for long periods of time. It sounds like the only reason root stopped doing that was because they found a partner to be with. Which makes sense, because that is what happened to Tomoe and Mio. Otherwise they would have either been still sleeping or in Mio’s case, going around eating everything still. I don’t get how people can call the mc dum. Lack of knowledge and being straight up dum are literally two very different things. In the case of lack of knowledge, everyone is dum. Because everyone has a lack of knowledge in an area of life. lol There’s no one excluded from that aspect of life. That’s why we all try to gain wisdom.
