Chapter 159 - 159. I Can't Stand Stuffiness! (3)

"A seal...?"

Daedroth, who closed his eyes and put his head on the question of the two, continued with a plausible explanation.

"Yes. Since it was obtained from a labyrinth created by a sage, I wonder if it is a dragon that was subjugated by a party of warriors in the past... If they subjugated the demon king, it would not be so strange to say that they subdued the dragon. How do you seal the dragon in an orb? I'm not sure if I could have done it, but maybe a sage would have had a way to do it."

"So, what's the situation now? Could it harm Miss Yuri? Orb didn't talk to me."

At Zeto's worried voice, Daedroth waved his hand and answered.

"The reason why only Miss Yuri can hear her voice is because she's connected to her. It's a pretty complicated story, but to put it simply, it's like they're connected mentally... I don't know why, but the bond between Miss Yuri and this red dragon is quite strong. This sounds good. Zeto, I don't know why it didn't connect with you... But it won't do you any harm anyway. So far."

"Then can I use it as an Orb normally?"

"Plain Obra..."

Daedroth muttered as he recalled Yuri's question.

He felt guilty for her pure, clear eyes.

Deidros continued her story, trying to avoid Yuri's stare at him.

"...It seems that it is still possible to increase the power of magic, but if you find out the true name, it might be possible to use the power of this red dragon. Of course, it will not be easy to find out the true name. "

"..."

When Daedroth mentions his true name, Zeto's mouth is firmly shut.

Dedros wouldn't know.

That Zeto knew the dragon's true name, which was never easy to figure out, and that he knew his true name.

"Can I try to communicate with this dragon for a while? It seems like it's not too much to connect for a while, but I don't know if I can get this dragon's cooperation."

"Then I beg you. If you can use the dragon's power, you can become stronger, right?"

Yuri, who was the owner of the sphere, nodded lightly at Deidros' suggestion.

"It can be strong. However, if that happens, the bond will be stronger than this, and it will be exposed to the power of the red dragon to that extent and it may affect you. Is that okay?"

"As for the influence...?"

"Well, it's because it's a red dragon. Usually, it starts with getting a little angry, and in more severe cases, it's hard to wake up in anger..."

"...That much should be taken into consideration. I am not the only one who overdoes it in order to become stronger."

As Yuri answered, she looked at Jeto who was next to her.

"Then let's talk for a while."

"Uh, by the way... Orb has been talking a lot less since a while ago, is it okay? Originally, he was very talkative and very noisy..."

Yuri raised her eyebrows and said to Day de Los, who stood up after picking up the sphere.

"Don't worry about that."

Just be quiet

With that thought in mind, Deidros moved to a quiet room in his mansion.

Soon after closing and locking the door, the Daedroth left it on the table in one corner of the room as if throwing a sphere.

He immediately raised his hand over the sphere.

Then his hand glowed, and he briefly broke the link between the sphere and the glass, and then connected it to himself.

Unlike the case of Yuri, a temporary weak connection for a brief moment of communication.

Daedroth let out a big sigh after confirming that he was well connected to the sphere.

"Haa... If you hear me, answer me."

Daedroth was currently spitting out the dragon's own language.

The reason why he bothered to use the language of the dragon, which had become unfamiliar after a long game, was because Jeto, who had excellent hearing, had to overhear and tell a story that had nothing good to say.

[ ... ]

However, the sphere did not answer.

Dedros confirmed the connection again.

Even if he pretended to, he deliberately refused to answer.

Daedroth's cold gaze followed.

There was contempt in his eyes as he looked down at the sphere.

Soon he opened his mouth again.

"Orb? Orb? That's not even funny. Did you think I wouldn't know what this object is for?"

[ ... ]

"I couldn't bear to let them know the truth. The dragon's status will fall to the ground. It's like having your soul trapped in a tool to get pleasure... It's pitiful."

Yes.

The sphere was not an 'orb'.

To humans, it might look like an ordinary sphere containing a huge amount of mana, or something like an orb, but this sphere was a female dragon's 'self-defense device' that existed from a very long time ago.

If it was a dragon, I had no choice but to know.

After all, it was such a famous product that rumors circulated that it was a requested item among dragons.

Deadros couldn't bear to explain that the lofty and noble soul of a dragon was contained in a vulgar tool to comfort himself, so he chose to tell lies.

The plausible lie that he was sealed by the wise man.

"I didn't do it for you, so you don't have to thank me. Go ahead and answer me."

Said the Daedroth and drew a line at the nameless, stupid female dragon.

Eventually, the sphere also began to speak.

However, as he said, he showed no sign of gratitude at all.

[ ...Thanks? Why should I give thanks? Seal? It's not even funny... I'm not weak enough to be sealed by a mere hero. ]

The red dragon got angry in reverse.

Daedroth, who had no face at this, ate and laughed.

"Ha, I thought you knew the subject because you said you were keeping your mouth shut, but wasn't it really like that. There's no way to be sealed by a hero... I don't think that's what four years old, whose souls were buried in such a vulgar tool, would say. I was convinced by the answer, that the four years were not unintentional, but voluntarily."

[Ugh, ugh...]

Deadros' words must have been correct, but the sphere closed its mouth with a strange groan.

The red dragon contained in the sphere became silent, but for some reason the sphere began to vibrate and hum.

The original function of the sphere as a tool was being operated.

It was unknown what had triggered this vulgar vibration, but Daedroth felt it hurt his ears from the rattling of the table, so he hurriedly brought a piece of cloth and wrapped it around the sphere.

"...How on earth can it be like that? Is it because red dragons are all stupid people who don't know how to get angry?"

Deidros, who had to feel dejected at the sight of himself covering his sphere with cloth, fired at him with a sharp voice.

[ Ugh... Shut up...! I was just wondering...! ]

"...What?"

[That's... This, if this tool became part of me... What kind of pleasure would it add...]

It couldn't have been more shocking.

No matter how difficult it is for dragons to find their mate, it should be considered a 'tool' designed for this reason... But this was too severe in some cases.

Did he suddenly transfer his soul while trying to share his senses?

No, is that what you're talking about?

"..."

Deidros, who had not expected the process at all even after hearing the explanation, shook his head in a daze.

"...As expected, cooperation is something that never existed in the first place. I will destroy it right here and now."

[That's not possible...! It's too early to die like this...! I haven't even mated yet! ]

Dragons basically don't have a strong sexual desire, so it felt very strange that they were obsessed with mating, but in this state, mating in the future is almost impossible.

Deadros, who had reached such a concern, was able to understand the use of the function that connects the senses found in the structure of the sphere.

"As long as you've already confirmed that a beast like you, whose head is full of sexual desire, is a dragon, it's hard to call it a dragon, there's no other way. I can't make that mistake."

Just as the Daedroth was about to break the sphere by tightening its grip, the sphere exclaimed urgently.

[ For a moment...!! The true name... I will tell you the true name...]

"...True name?"

[I don't know how ruthless you are, but my master is seeking power for a reason! If she breaks me under that circumstance, she'll be disappointed...? ]

"...Hmm."

The Daedroth salivated.

'It was just something I said, but I'll sincerely tell you the true name...'

For all dragons, 'true name' was never something that could be easily told to others.

This is because orders or contracts containing true names have great power, so there is a possibility that they can be easily swayed by the target who informs them of the true name.

Thus, when dragons serve someone, or to a companion who will be with them for the rest of their lives, they used to announce their true name as a meaning similar to an oath.

Even Daedroth, who had lived for a long time, had only revealed his true name once.

To tell a human who had just met such an important true name was incomprehensible to common dragon common sense.

[Hee hee. You can't break it like this, right? Besides, it's not even your thing. I heard that gold dragons pay special attention to things they don't own? ]

"..."

Daedroth thought as he looked at the orb, which let out a mean laugh.

It's been a long time since I've lost any pride or pride as a dragon for this stupid bitch.
