 Colorful petals are scattered in the darkness of the night.

 

 Each petal is tinged with a faint glow, perhaps due to magical power, and it is the most fantastic sight of all.

 

 

“Eh, this must be a dream…” (Villager)

 

“He’s defeated the dragon… a ten-year-old child did…” (Villager)

 

 

 Adults muttered dreamily while watching the petals flying in the air.

 

 Now that we have a little time before they come to their senses, I should make the most of it.

 

 I’m quite happy to see my former subordinates again.

 

 

“… Alraune you got quite the strength now.”

 

“I’ve had gained a lot of experience since you’re gone, and now I’m level 51.” (Alraune)

 

“You’ve gained over 30 levels since then! At that level, you can evenly fight a dragon!?”

 

“No, I’m sure I’ll be able to be rid of it, I have a new super-short magical chant—[Flower Chant].” (Alraune)

 

“… Woah! A plant monster is now stronger than a dragon.”

 

“You taught me well.” (Alraune)

 

“What did I taught you?”

 

“That if you work hard enough and in the right direction, most things can be accomplished.” (Alraune)

 

“… You’ve really worked hard.”

 

“Thank you.” (Alraune)

 

 

 Alraune smiles with a carefree smile.

 

 I’ve never seen a hard worker like her.

 

 

“Well, thank you for your hard work, Alraune, I’m saved.”

 

 

 It might be just a habit of being a Mid Boss (manager), I shyly gave her shoulder a pat for working hard.

 

 Alraune was also embarrassed by the gesture—then, a magic formation appeared at her feet.

 

 

“… Hey? What is this?” (Alraune)

 

 

 Alraune makes a surprised voice.

 

 However, it intensified, Alraune’s whole body began to shine.

 

 …… No, no.

 

 Alraune herself is becoming “light”!

 

 

“Well, did the previous words signal the completion of the pact…?”

 

“What!? That’s it!? I’m already going back!?” (Alraune)

 

“… It seems so.”

 

“Don’t be joking one me! I still have something to ask you! I want to know what happened after you were stabbed or why are you human now…!” (Alraune)

 

 

 While saying that, Alraune’s body began to become transparent.

 

 

“Hey, I’m disappearing!? Narugoa! Summon me again soon! Okay!?”

 

“… That’s a difficult order.”

 

 

 I looked around.

 

 The eyes of the villagers are gathering at us.

 

 In such a situation, I can’t seem to make time to chat with her again.

 

 

“Oh, it’s time! I promise!”

 

 

 Alraune, which has almost turned into particles of light, approached me.

 

 

“–Be sure to come back to the Cave of Silence! Everyone is waiting for your return–!” (Alraune)

 

 

 At the end of that word, the figure of Alraune melted into the darkness.

 

 The magic formation that has finished its role disappears, and the night became quiet, like the Cave of Silence.

 

 

“……Hooray!” (Villager)

Advertisements

 

 

 

 Then someone muttered.

 

 And this signaled the braking of the silence.

 

 

“–He did it! Narugoa did it!! Narugoa defeated the dragon!!” (Villager)

 

 

The night echoed with cheers that erupted as if from a dam.

 

 A wave of people surged from all directions and immediately surrounded me.

 

 

“Narugoa! No way you could summon such an advanced monster! Why have you been silent until now!?” (Villager)

 

“I’ve been a magician for a long time that monsters cast magic without chanting, but I’ve never seen or heard of that!?” (Mizael)

 

“It seemed like they were talking about something for a long time…” (Villager)

 

“Well, please! Call that beautiful lady again! Narugoa, such a catch…!” (Dana)

 

 

 Uncle Dana, who was confused by something strange, pointed it out, was soon being pulled by the landlady.

 

 

“Wow, you were amazing, Narugoa-kun!!” (Timora)

 

 

 As I was being congratulated by the waves of people, Timora was impressed and hugged me.

 

 Adults shout “Ooh!?” to the action that Timora boldly made, and soon everyone moved away for a bit.

 

 

“You young things!” (Villager)

 

“Hahaha! I envy you! The best beauty in the village will bless you!” (Villager)

 

“Narugoa summon that beautiful lady again…! This time I’ll burn her image into my eyes…!” (Dana)

 

 

 Uncle Dana, who kept saying stupid things, was beaten down by the landlady while the adults whispered.

 

 …… I think I heard some people making weird remarks, but to not make eye contact with them.

 

 

 Thinking this, I turned my eyes and saw Rigat, who crawled in a place away from the crowds.

 

 He wetted his pants and immediately sobbed.

 

 

“Narugoa… why… why…!” (Rigat)

 

 

 

 I don’t know what he means by “why”, but it’s pathetic it had to come this far.

 

 So I pretended not to see him.

 

 

 A lot of things have happened, but… this is the end of it.

 

 

 I have a lot of work to do, but it is probably not wrong to bask in the afterglow at least for now.
