"Ungh! My head hurts…" Dick groggily opened the door.
"We got to move, the dragon's back."
"Wait, who? Who are you?" He was confused. If he wasn't drunk I'd have probably punched him.
"This isn't the time for this you, moron. Did your brain malfunction or something?"
"Daarc? Wait what the hell is going on?"
I sighed in frustration. "You gotta be kidding me. How could you already forget my face?"
He groaned. "How could this be! Damn! I didn't even get the chance to kiss her yet."
I stared at him without a word. Did I seriously need to go through this now?
"Anyway what's up with the commotion?" he held his head in his hand. He was barely awake. And the fact that I wasn't a girl anymore bothered him more than anything else.
"The dragon, he's back. And he brought friends."
He pondered for a moment and let it all sink in. "What!" He stretched his surprise somewhat and glared at me. "Maybe I shouldn't have agreed to take you with us in the first place." He sighed. The guy had a bad case of a hangover.
I guess all of this was a bit too much for him to handle for his dehydrated brain.
"Too late now."
"You talk like it's not your problem." He groaned again.
Siren like bells started ringing. It was more or less the middle of the night. So the siren felt rather loud. "Looks like they're already here."
I really wished they hadn't but this was bad.
"They? You don't mean?" His face went pale- more like paler.
"He's bringing friends: Didn't you hear me before?"
Small drops of sweat appeared on his face.
He probably thought one dragon was trouble but manageable. But the idea of multiple ones was something he didn't even want to have nightmares about. "Te-tell me, how many friends are we talking about?"
"Ten-twelve maybe?" I knew one thing for sure, I didn't know anything. "I'd suggest you to run away while you have the chance. I'm pretty sure it's coming for me." I'd already dragged him in my business more than enough. I didn't want to endanger his life any further.
"What are you talking about? Aren't we friends?"
I actually didn't expect that. "And you'd throw your life for a friend you don't even know about?"
"Yes!" I might have misjudged him. "Besides, how can I just abandon all the ladies of this town? And if I let you die I'd never see that your beautiful face again!"
Okay, I definitely misjudged him.
"Anyway, get ready." I had to do something about the whole situation as well. No matter how I thought about it, it seemed more or less like my fault. I couldn't just drag in innocent bystanders in this.
"Understood." Servesta was listening to us rather attentively.
I hadn't seen him but if he heard what I said then I had one less thing to worry about.
At least someone understood things.
"Looks like you're already pretty ready," Dick pointed at me.
I was rocking the new armor and Boriosa's robe: it functioned more like a cape though. I looked flashier than I wanted but it was the best I could hope for.
I was even wearing Boriosa's pants. After a wash, all of his clothes came out neat and clean. The clothes were the best I saw in this world and I really hoped he'd forgive me for wearing them.
I grinned. "Alright since they're here for me, I'm going out of the town. Maybe I'd be able to negotiate something. But if that fails at least the town won't be in immediate danger. Meanwhile, you can do something about the dragons if they appear. And since they know about the mystic stuff, let's give 'em a good show."
"Not the best of plans. But I don't have anything better. goo'luck!" He spread his arms for a shake. After a brief second, I spread my hand and met his. His attitude towards me sure had changed when I changed back.
This guy only ticked for women, I guess.
"See ya later." I didn't mind it though.
I ran out of the inn.
***
The whole city was in a panic. Sleeping people woke up in the middle of the night hearing sirens. I'd have been surprised if there was no panic.
People ran around, aimlessly. The guards were overloaded with stress and the sheer magnitude of the panic.
The sky was littered with black things that had wings. They hadn't attacked yet. It was almost as if they were waiting for something.
So you really are here for me.
Was I wearing something like a trouble magnet? Why did these things always have to target me?
"Daarc!" Lianne ran towards me. "What now?"
I guess she was done warning the guards.
"I'm planning on getting out of the town and negotiating with him," I said.
"But that's reckless!" I was glad to see she didn't mind my transformation at least.
"Well, we don't really have a choice."
"And why are you like this? The monster won't be able to recognize you! Turn back." I might have spoken too soon.
"Oh, he'll recognize me alright. At first, I thought we were connected or something. But he was beaming onto me like a missile. He was using my subconscious to find me."
And more importantly, he could smell Trerortra's blood in me.
Well, it was more like my theory because no matter what trouble always found me no matter where I went.
She held my hands. "I won't stop you. But promise me you won't do anything rash."
Why is everyone talking like they won't see me again? Come on people be a little more optimistic.
I smiled. "Of course. Take care of the little bunny, will ya!" I ran. I didn't let her say anything. I knew she'd worry but I didn't have a choice.
Speaking of the bunny, I actually hadn't seen the little devil after waking up.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
