10 Tiamat (2) (Edited)

[Level of skilled [Spirit of relief] went up from 3 to 4]

[Skill of title [Tiny hero: Lv 1] was obtained]

I woke up to the sound of these two notifications. Now, where am I?

I looked around. I'm looking at the trees in the forest.

Yawning once, I confirmed my status.

I haven't fully recovered, but I'm halfway there. As much as I wish I could make a full recovery, I need to hunt for food.

"Are you awake?"

That's a familiar voice. I look in the direction the voice came from and see a beautiful woman with pale blue hair.

I was instantly alerted. I can feel it-- that terrifying dragon aura surrounding her. A dragon so powerful, there's only one of such level in the area.

Tiamat.

"Who are you?"

I asked carefully. Even though I knew who she was, I couldn't give myself away. I'd already revealed a lot of things before, and I couldn't screw it up anymore.

"I am Tiamat. The dragon of Karmic Chaos. Now boy, who are you?"

Me? Who am I? I don't remember much about my past life. Just a little bit about the DxD and FATE worlds, but not much about my own life. What was my name? I don't remember, how sad...

Damn goddess... She said she was gonna keep my memories.

"I don't have a name."

I was honest. There's no point in making up a name. I'm a fatherless baby dragon, no matter how much I have the title dragon king's son.

To my response, Tiamat was making a thoughtful face.

"I see, so... Can I give you a name?"

Is she going to give me a name? Okay, whatever she wants. I'm nodding my head to show that I agree with her suggestion.

Tiamat smiles. Why does she seem genuinely happy?

"Cough, I've decided. From now on, your name is Draco."

Draco... You're not the most ingenious woman, are you?

"Thank you very much!"

I don't dare be rude to her. I don't want to die yet, you know?

"You don't have to thank me. Something like naming a little dragon is too easy for me."

You're not serious, are you? Tell me you don't mean it.

"Well, why don't you get healed for now?"

"Me? Heal me?"

"Yes, yesterday I saw you cure that human girl. You should be able to heal yourself."

It's true. I healed that human girl yesterday. Am I stupid? I also healed myself when the old man hurt me.

[Heal]

A faint light wraps around me and heals my body just a little.

The HP restored was only 2, whereas MP decreased by 8.

Although it's a drop in the bucket, it's better than none at all, huh.

I may acquire it as a skill if I practice repeatedly.

I repeated rest for 5 times continuously.

In the 5 attempts, I recovered approximately 3 points twice.

Yeah, if I raise it patiently this way, it should become something useful eventually.

Because it will restore about 30 points if I keep shooting it with full MP now, there isn't a reason to call it entirely useless.

Well, it's a little bit useless, actually. I guess there's still a long way to go before it becomes a useful skill.

Tiamat is looking at me with eyes full of interest. I'm getting a little scared.

"This... Tiamat? Can you tell me where we are?"

"Right, I guess you don't know anything since you were born recently. Well, let me enlighten you with my knowledge."

Yeah, yeah. I just want you to tell me where we are.

"This planet is called Earth. We are in a world where all kinds of supernatural beings exist. But among all those beings, we, the dragons, are the most powerful. At the same time, we are the rarest race. That's why we should all get along, not like those two heavenly dragons who lost their lives fighting each other."

Wait, wait. Did you say two heavenly dragons? Is she talking about Ddraig and Albion? Are we in DxD?

"Heavenly Dragons?"

I had my doubts when I first met Tiamat, but it looks like I'm in DxD.

I have to confirm. If we really are in the world of DxD... This could be a dream come true!

Damn goddess... looks like you're not so damn. Maybe I'll get a little fond of you.

"Yes, the two heavenly dragons, Ddraig and Albion. They were given to fight among themselves and annoyed the three biblical factions while they were at war. Fucking idiots, they ended up dying and being sealed upon Sacred Gears. But that's not the worst of it. That damn Ddraig... making my treasure disappear... When his new porter shows up, I'm going to demand he find my treasures, or I'm going to burn him to death."

There's no doubt about it! This is the world of DxD. The problem now is, what year are we in now? It looks like Issei hasn't woken up the boosted gear yet.

Now, now... What should I do? Should I save Kuroka and Shirone? Should I save Akeno's mother?

Mmm... I know what I'm going to do!

I'm going to train for now.

What the hell, how am I gonna save them when I'm so weak? I have to kill monsters.

[Strong] [Become strong]

Yeah, I'm gonna do that. I'm going to kill more and more monsters...

Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill!

"Thank you very much for saving me, Tiamat. I owe you a favor."

Yes, just like the human girl before, I now owe Tiamat a favor. I don't like to owe anyone a favor.

For something like this not to happen again, I have to get stronger.

Stronger, stronger, stronger.

Tiamat's eyes are glowing. She's thinking about something suspicious, it's too obvious!

"Will you accept any request I make?"

Hey, hey. Stop coming near me. Are you a pervert? I'm a baby, you know?

"Your parents don't seem to be in the area. So you're most likely an abandoned baby. Since that's the case, why don't you become my son?"

Tiamat is looking at me. Now that I look, her eyes are glowing with anticipation.

I'm stunned. I didn't expect her to come out with a request like this. Fuck, having Tiamat as a mother, it's not bad.

"Yes! I accept!"

Tiamat smiles. What a beautiful smile... Why haven't I made her my wife? No, no, that's impossible. I think I'll die the moment I mention it.
