D-Rank – Chapter 71

Are you also trying to lay your hands on a girl?

[Good. Somehow we were able to save the four of them, but…..]

We were able to gather the four elves who entered the dungeon that each fell into trouble.

They were caught by the tarantula webs and couldn’t move, but we were able to save them before they were poisoned, so it was lucky that they only sustained minor injuries.

[….. I admit it. You’re abilities are superior to ours. And also, we could not defeat the evil dragon]

The young elf, Rou said so.

I wish they would admit it a little earlier.

[However, we are the guards of Ryuna-sama who has protected her since childhood! Even if it is for the good of the people, we can’t hand her to you!]

[That’s right!]

[It’s right!]

Rino nodded heavily, Lily and Ron agreed.

『Kukuku…..it’s a pity, but their Ryuna-sama was already tainted by someone』

Who do you think is to blame?

We had to leave in a hurry, but I will punish you severely later.

『Hee~, are you also trying to lay hands on a girl like me?』

Don’t say it in a way that can be misinterpreted.

Anyway, the four of them still doesn’t know about that matter.

I think it would be better not to tell them here inside the dungeon.

I think it would be nice to go back to the village, and tell them when they have calmed down.

At least that was the idea, but—–

[Lukas-dono has already made me his maiden]

[ [ [ [What!]] ] ] ] ]

Ryuna has revealed it…..

Why did you have to tell them in such a place?

[I-It can’t be…..]

[Ryuna-sama…..]

[With this man…..]

[I-It’s a lie…..please say it’s a lie…..!]

The four of them were stunned.

[It’s not a lie. Last night, I went to bed with Lucas-dono and we had a physical relationship]

She said it all in one sentence.

I really want her to have the ability to read the atmosphere, even a little bit.

[Grrrrrrr! Gau, Gau, Gau, Gau!!]

It was at that time.

Kuu began to bark suddenly.

[Huh! What something dangerous is coming!?]

Soon, we too came to feel something unusual.

Goudou goudou goudou goudou, The dungeon was shaking.

It was getting stronger and stronger—–

BOOM!! Something came out of the dungeon wall as it sends debris and sand all over the area.

What appeared was a huge snake—no, maybe it’s better to say worm.

Perhaps it was digging on the ground, half of it’s body was still on the wall.

It seems that it’s length is more than five meters.

[Is this the evil dragon…..?]

[It doesn’t look like a dragon at all]

[Y-Yes…..by the name of evil dragon, I imagined something cooler…..]

More than a lizard, it was completely an invertebrate animal.

『It is a worm, it’s a certain type of dragon. However, common worms look a little more like snakes. By the way, a dragon that has lived for a long time is called an elder dragon, and it’s normally has a high intelligence and reason, but this one is not so, the biggest characteristic of the evil dragon is that it becomes an idiot, although it maintains it’s power』

It has a long body from which you cannot distinguish between the head and it’s tail.

There was an open hole in the tip that seemed to be his mouth, and countless sharp fangs could be seen.

It should be one or two meters in diameter.

With that mouth, it seems that it is possible that it can easily swallow a human.

Thanks to Kuu we were able to avoid it.

If we don’t know where it will come from, we couldn’t have dodged it and we would have become its prey.

At first glance it looks like a worm, but it seems that its entire body was covered by scales.

[Arrows can’t pierce it!?]

[It’s very hard!]

Rino and the others fired their arrows, but were repelled by the scales.

For the time being, since the four elves will be a burden, it was decided to put them in kuu’s shadow.

[Gau, Gau!]

[What are you doing!?]

[Ryuna-sama! We will fight too!]

It seems that they are complaining, but now it is an emergency.

I don’t have time to listen to them.

[SHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

The evil dragon began to move, opened its huge mouth and attacked.

But, we were quickly able to dodge it.

[I will try to use my maiden power]

While saying that, Ryuna held a large crescent-shaped bow.

That’s the venus-replica she acquired.

When she prepared the arrow and pulled the bow string, an incredible wind was winded around.

The flow of the atmosphere converged to the arrow.

『That is your replica-venus “Heavenly Sky”. It’s【unique ability】is 〈AirflowControl〉. It’s suits perfectly to elves who specialize in bows!』

Immediately afterwards, the arrow was released at a tremendous speed.

It was accompanied by a swirl of air, and it accelerated further even after it was shot.

The arrow easily penetrated the hard scales of the evil dragon.

Then the arrow came out the other side, hitting the wall hard.

Having it’s body pierced, the evil dragon raised a big cry.

[Ah, it’s running away]

Although it was upside down, surprisingly the evil dragon escaped through the original hole.

I see.

It could certainly be said that it was the same as in the past.

However, if we don’t finish it this time, there will be no end to it.

[Let’s go after it]

[Alright]

[Very well]

[Understood]

We chased the evil dragon and jump into the hole.
