Sensei 20

[=] Chapter ~ Start [=]

When I woke up with the two women holding on my sides, I was not surprised.

Looking at another direction, the same woman that I have healed had already woken up.

We started at each other, before I looked down to be in luck that the blanket had covered the lower parts of my body.

"Yo. How does it feel to be alive again, princess?" I spoke out with a small grin while crossing my arms.

She was silent for a moment.

"I thank you for saving my life, stranger." She said.

Then, she introduced herself as Tio Klarus, the princess of the last remaining Dragonmen of this world, slightly related to dragons, which they can transform into using a skill unique to then.

When I confirmed that I did save her, it was noticable that she is opening up on me even more, though was skeptical if I would try to abuse her kindness.

I assured her that I would not even do that, as I have some other things to do.

[=] Some Time Later.... [=]

[=] PoV: 3rd [=]

It was a normal dating day in the current life of Satoru's party, now with Tio included.

Well, Satoru hasn't really started dating Tio yet, but the dragon princess had already grown a little fond of him.

His interactions with his harem members were all as if he was chill with them, never once flirted, maybe rarely. He was no dense person, and just by being near him was enough to cause a strange reaction to her.

It's as if she was simply a daughter to someone, and that someone was Satoru, even though there was no sort of connection from her and him in blood.

Right now, he had already took the utility tent with him inside some sort of pocket dimension, as he called it, the [Inventory Dimension/Inven-Dimension].

It would be amazing to know more about him, but it seems like he's not in such a mood.

They were peacefully walking towards a certain direction, towards Urdea Lake and the Lakeside Town.

That was until they all stopped for a moment when Satoru did that first, glancing towards Aiko then looking around him carefully.

"Satoru, what's wrong?" The petite woman asked, and yet Satoru did not answer, only suddenly appearing right behind her and blocking a magic attack with his bare hands, surprising Aiko and Tio.

"We're getting ambushed. Also, I hate to say this to you, but it's not nice to do that!" He said, as if he expected something like this to happen. Satoru was glancing upwards in disappointment over this.

In reaction to this, several mana beasts have surrounded them, and everyone was alert as Melusine and Satoru were guarding Aiko.

Tio, however, couldn't really watch as she evaded a strike from an Ogre, and counterattacked with a palm strike to the solar plexus in reflex.

They fought many mana beasts while Satoru noticed that the one who attacked them had already temporarily retreated due to the failure of probably killing Aiko. He was just disappointed over this show of stupidity, though.

After a little while, many trees have been destroyed, and incredible amounts of destruction were present.

Satoru figured something out: If there were many mana beasts attacking them, even though there should be less, something was brewing up.

Using his sensory ability, he sensed many beasts gathering further up on the north, around 25 thousand, all as powerful as a higher ranked beast or even more powerful than that.

"Well, I've noticed the lack of beasts on these areas three days ago when we ventured here to have our private time. So I guess it was very suspicious." Satoru said, before he looked at the defenseless friend.

"... Considering what happened earlier, their target must be you." He concluded whilst remembering that there were spies from Hölscher Empire sent to kidnap Aiko, earning a gasp of surprise and realization from the petite teacher.

"Satoru, I definitely don't know who or what tried to kill me, but I'm sure that it's not a mana beast." Aiko spoke out, feeling scared about the feeling that she'll die, even with Satoru near her.

Satoru could do nothing but sigh and comfort her, before he looked at Tio with a small grin.

"Tio, you can transform into a dragon, right?"

It has been a few days since Aiko, Satoru, and Melusine mysteriously vanished. Or so their thought.

They have been looking for them around the forest outside the Lakeside Town, and it began to worry them, even though mysteriously there weren't any mana beasts that they would have normally encountered in the forest.

They weren't sure if something bad happened to the three of them, but they all wanted to return back to the town right now. The students can search for them again later.

A strange thing happened later when they did return to town, as a black dragon was approaching Ur.

Knights were scattering around, trying to get ready for a possible battle against a long lost legend.

In fear of the unknown, they were tense.

But...

"STOOOOOOPPPP!!!"

That voice.....

"Aiko-sensei!?"
