――Ruunnn, quickly runnn

――Sood in heaven, please grant us your salvation-

――There is no way, I' to die in this kind of placeeee-

It felt like those kinds of scream of heart could be heard

「…………Tio」

『Wha, what is it, Goshujin-saht fluster When she turned around her head and looked behind, she saw the figure of Haji fro?」

『N, nooo, I think that art not really not the case……』

「But, no matter how I look at their reaction, it's like they are a victim that encountered the devilish ho pressure or anything Even though, I'」

『Ma, mayhaps, they art not used to huht of me as their fellow, they saw a creature that they hath not seen before and got surprised Surely that art the case here』

「Are they running away that desperately in terror because they are surprised? ……Recently I'ht that I have adapted a bit to live in earth but……」

『Goshujin-sa thy rare disheartened figure, but for no about we try chasing after the in this world that we finally discovered』

「……You are right Let's do that」

Tio rithing lightly seeing Hajime as somewhat dispirited

If it was hi like this would cause vein to twitch on his forehead before he shot the disheartened like this showed that he was in the process of accliht, but this was really a rare sight so she didn't say anything instead

In exchange, she urged Hajie in this world that they finally encountered so that it wouldn't get away

She flapped her wings once Tio began to fly glidingly The grey dragons that glanced back as though saying「They aren't following us? Are we safe already?」saw the following Tio――oron her back and their body twiiiitched and trean to escape with even more desperation than before

「……」

『Aa~, Goshujin-sama? This art surely that They don't look like they hath intelligence in the level of huenuinely a beast That's why, they art instinctually sensing Goshujin-saesture However, it was unclear whether her words reached or not Hajime didn't react at all while his soe bit by bit

The disheartened face turned into a fixed stare, and next it changed into a s for that kind of character from me then, aah, that's fine I should answer their expectation Ku-ku-ku-ku-」

『Go, Goshujin-sa with me!? Run away! All of thee, quickly run awayyyyy-』

The dely above Tio and widely spread his ar in the enemy His lips split apart like a crescentfiercely like a hunter cornering his prey!

Tio howled and urged the grey dragons to escape The grey dragons that looked back siht away

「Now, run, run, run! I'll leisurely hunt you down and devour youuuuu-」

They saw the deic pohile loudly yelling so like that which reverberated to the whole azure sky

Of course, it ithout saying that the body of the grey dragons twitcheeeeeeeeeed It also ithout saying that they were starting to run aith even more desperation than before Frohter resounded So around their eyes even though they were dragon――surely that was just an iination

Around thirtyHaji on Tio's back while grasping his knees Tio as taking the stance of "Let's just left him alone for now" finally called at Haji down and look ahead』

「Just leave usted with rowth ……If I don't reflect back on myself a bit then I'll turn coet upset and indignated……no, mayhaps, he wouldst be happy because his co about that, co like that and raise thy head It's worth it to chase after those dragon with soht that wouldstmy concern like that……well, certainly theabout the sight――」

Haji cruel about a certain friend with thin presence and he lifted his gaze And then, he lost his words while unconsciously rising voice of admiration「Ooo」

In theafter the grey dragons and they took distance fro And now it seeons were dwelling

「Is this a real Lap○ta huh」

『Aah, that h as for me this remindedwithout end since the place they appeared at the beginning until now There was only the sea of clouds as far as their eye could see It was possible that perhaps this sea of clouds was covering the whole world In that case, because the surface was ravaged by the black rain that was bringing fatality to the living thing, then where would the dragons rested their wings――the answer to that question was this

――An island floating in the sky

Yes, it was a piece of land that was floating above the sea of clouds without anything supporting it froh a piece of land had been reeled up as it was, below there was the exposed earth and stones, above there was the verdant green ground, there was even a forest covering the center of the floating island with tall trees Its size was around five or six Tokyo Doht that this is a fantasy world by the tion, but with this it feels even hly observe the floating island at the Holy Precincts I aons before art likely to be here too, so it's better to land at the edge as to not surprise them correct?』

「Yeah, do that I'll use "Presence Isolation" in advance」

The more Tio approached, the more a commotion happened at the forest at the center The trees were unnaturally shaking slightly, however, right after that the forest was filled with peacefulness Surely the dragons were hiding there

Tio landed on the edge of the floating island while feeling their presence She landed gently with a softness that didn't fit her large body Hajiround with his own feet

Right after that, Tio dispelled her dragon transforitation was spreading from the forest

「It looks like normal weed from the appearance The composition of the soil……it seems similar with earth and Tortus but……hrass with his hand, he then analyzed the soil composition with "Mineral Appraisal" And then, 「Oh?」 he blinked as though he noticed so

「What art the matter? Art there some kind ofit athat is really similar with a composition I'm really familiar with is mixed in What's more, it's scattered all over in wide scope like a fertilizer」

「Fa froranulatedTrans that it was faster to see directly, he ht after that, Haji a trans without the hand directly touching the

Sparkling sands were bursting out froe rivers of the cos stars with Haji above his palm

With an emission of crimson sparks, the item that was finally created by the co azure od crystal」

「Yeah Though it's different in the finer aspects It seeic power and condenses it to h」

To be od crystal, on top of that it also didn't have the power to create god water that possessed the recovery effect that wouldn't be an exaggeration to be called as regeneration However, its ability to take in ic power into itself and then created liquid with abundant nourishh those sequences were far faster and ree that couldn't be cood water

Hajie from the analysis of his smartphone that was equipped with the advanced function of analyzing using "Mineral Appraisal" and Creation Magic and Metaic Tio who received Haji and then she looked around

「So that's how a land floating in the sky couldst be this verdant The reason art because it hath that god crystal look alike」

「Looks like it Although, that's not the reason why this land is floating though……」

Haji island He was intending to go investigate there Tio also nodded and she was about to walk, it was at that ti out by their own initiative」

One dragon suddenly showed out its face fro at Tio

Hajime and Tio looked at each other For now they would try watching in silence Haji "Presence Isolation" in full pohile also for a pencil sized Cross Velt It wasn't an artifact for defense, but a barrier artifact that used space e It wasn't that powerful, but it more or less also possessed space isolation effect, so it blocked the body odor fro jii~ at Tio for a while, but seeing Tio wasn'tback at it with a caluard down just a little because it caon, 「Oi, is it really okay?」「Stop I told you! You are going to die!」the other dragons tih to say those

「It looks like they art calons that could be said to be char in a sense caused Tio to loosen up her face Perhaps Tio's aton in the lead was advancing a bit and stopped, then it advanced a bit and stopped again It was repeating that action while approaching Tio bit by bit

Before long, the dragon that had arrived until near Tio brought its snout closer to Tio and it sniffed her smell sniff sniff And then, it nervously retracted back its neck and tilted its head before it brought its nose closer again and sniffed her scent sniff sniff again

「Hon, or a hureat isn't it, Goshujin-sama It appears Goshujin-sama art not especially hated, this children seems to fear "human" itself」

『I see In other words, thatin this world』

Hajion wouldn't get spooked While the tere doing that, the other dragons also seemed to lose to their curiosity toward this h she was hu tions in the blink of eye She slowly reached out her hand toward one of the dragons that was bringing its snout closer The dragon twitched and drew back, but when it saw Tio waiting silently with her hand still reached out, it approached back slowly

Finally, Tio's hand touched the dragon's snout And then, when Tio caressed it, the dragon blinked in surprise before it started to narrow its eyes pleasantly Its shrill but low purr kururururu- seeon was pressing its snout as though to appeal 'ons also pushed their snout forward froon race of all things to be spoiled children like this every single one of thou? What a troubling children」

Tio chuckled while saying that Although, even though she was saying that, the eently caressed the truly like a ure of Tio surrounded by dragons while gently spoiling theh normally she was very much a pervert, but her true nature was a noble person that was overfloith prudence, kindness, and pride That was exactly the charuely feel a passionate gaze……no, Goshujin-sa attention only to these children?」

While saze at Hajie

It was a fact that Haji「Perhaps」 Getting that unexpectedly positive reply, Tio's cheeks blushed faintly It seemed she was a bit happy

To divert the attention from her shyness, she opened her mouth with a bit of rapid talk

「Goshujin-sama If it's now this children's wariness art lessened considerably, how about giving a try to pat the like this』

Hajime manipulated the pencil Cross Velt and deployed the optical cae as close as possible on his body He was also in thePresence Isolation in full force, so he should be able to pat the dragon if he reached his hand froon It was half closing its eyes fro even if he touched it a bit

But, it seeon that Hajime approached suddenly leaped back from that spot Furtherorously that for a moment there it felt like there would be a sound hyuba-

'Aon tilted its head「kuruu?」while looking around It seemed it didn't notice Haji a step forward The dragon took a step back Hajion took two steps back Hajion circled with a fixed distance preserved in between It was as though there was an unseen wall between Haji in circles without any change of distance between theon didn't understand why it was acting like this It frequently tilted its head

「Ma,it hate there?」

Tiohow Haji scornful

Hajions also took distance with natural ons would distance thenet of opposite pole There was no doubt that they didn't notice Haji him in subconscious level

Haji at the day after tomorroith a faraway look

But, at that tion clawed on the ground with its hind leg The soil that was hurled froh, like what a cat or a dog would do to filth……

「……Go, Goshujin-sarinned

Crions were still busy fawning on Tio They didn't notice how they had stepped on a land the barrier and Presence Isolation activated and he took position at the center of the dragons by skillfully ons finally noticed the strange air and they looked around restlessly

And then, they turned their gaze at the area centered around them that was for some reason was empty without anyone there

――Stand B~y! Stand B~~y!!

――Now, everyone, are you all finished with your preparation?

――It's starting you know?

――Pe~~ek, aa~~~~~~~~~……de!

The barrier vanished and the Presence Isolation was dispelled

What appeared was a bursting cri wideeeeely at the center

The result ithout saying

「「「「「PIGYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!」」」」」

The dragons' screah the clear blue sky
