"Morning Ezax."(Hikari)

"Morning.."(Ezax)

I said that as I am yawning..I lack asleep because yesterday accident...well for now let's help Hikari set up. While Seria and Eliza do their job by looking around the possible enemies..

"Ezax May I know who did you fight yesterday?"(Hikari)

"Why you suddenly ask that?"(Ezax)

"Because when you help us,your magic power already depleted severely,not to mention on our way there was a crater on castle wall."(Hikari)

She is surprisingly sharp on this little detail. Well As long I keep silent she won't ask any futher I guess...

"There is no corpse or anything. Based on your personality..the reason you didn't tell us it must because you worried about us..you also lack of sleep. From that I can conclude 1 thing. Ezax,you lost didn't you?"(Hikari)

"Pretty much."(Ezax)

"I see.."(Hikari)

I continued peel the potato with knife,once it finished..Hikari ask me again.

"There is no need for you to be low in spirit. Losing doesn't matter what matter you survived...."(Hikari)

"Thank you for concern. But this isn't about a shame or whatever..what matter is if I can protect you guys or not? She is far stronger than me and beat me easily. If such a person targeting me..how couldn't you be not afraid?"(Ezax)

"Ezax..don't worry even you won't easily die..I believe it. After all you have life strong as OX!!"(Hikari)

Is it just me?Hikari was being weird. Like she didn't hear me well or her thought was on different things. She must be tired..

"Hikari you are mistaken...what I am corcerned are not my life..It is you,Seria and Eliza."(Ezax)

"Eh?"(Hikari)

"After all  of your life is priority."(Ezax)

"Eh?really?"(Hikari)

Why you are blushing?As I wondering did she have a fever or not.

"I never expect you to fall me love this soon.."(Hikari)

Seriously?Are this girl an idiot?How did she conclude that from my words?

"It was you who is an idiot."(Fafnir)

"Stupid master."(Tiamat)

"Eh?Eh?"(Kulshedra)

"Ara ara ara,one-chan will be angry you know ?If you kept going dense like this."(Leviathan)

"Fools."(Bahamut)

"Even me who is also block head understand just what are you saying."(Typhon)

"Playboy who plays with woman heart go die!!"(Brionac)

...........holy shit,just what did I do to get all of your remark?Instictvely..

"Arg all of you missunderstand!!!It was for the quest !!!It was request from guild master to protect her!!!Beside if she died !!then I can't rest in peace!!after all my name will be forever remain as Princess kidnapper!!I don't want that!!"(Ezax)

I don't want my name was written history as someone who kidnapped this idiot princess!!

"Yes yes~~we understand."(Every dragons inside me)

FUh!!FUUUU!!!Why they didn't believe me..

"Ah you tsundere~~~"(Hikari)

"LIKE HELL I AM TSUNDERE!!!"(Ezax)

"Sight really all of my worry will be gone once I am talked to her..."(Ezax)

I can't even remember why I am so worried about this. really when you talk to her all of your worry will be gone in flash..I never understand why I be like this thought. Someone who can you talk without any worries..really..what an odd girl.I though that as I went down to the basement. Just in case I will check them throughtly...but then fafnir said..

"Wasn't it a good thing?If you marry hikari even thought your life is harsh..as long you with her..you live will be always happy. After all Hikari was such a worryfree which make the best wife."(Fafnir)

This dragon...Did he like hikari that much as your daughter in law?I don't know what he always like this...he never do this before..

"I didn't understand why I must marry that idiot girl..indeed it was good thing. Still her flaws..it was too much."(Ezax)

...even thought I said this..if Fafnir told me to say it one by one..I don't know what to say. After all she was indeed a good girl.

"She was a good cook,she love you more than anything,she was sharp..she was kind,she was gentle. see?She was full of good point!!"(Fafnir)

"...It doesn't mean you must marry that girl..as long your feeling wasn't there..then marriage same as failure."(Ezax)

"RIGHT!!!"(Every other dragons)

...It was rare for them to but in. But I was interested why they deny hikari.

"I absolutely refuse for weak girl like her to marry Ezax!!!Someone who marry ezax should able to protect both of herself and Ezax!!!Because it is ezax job to sniper enemy from her back."(Tiamat)

...Your preferance..I am 99% you will be forever alone if you do this..after all many girls want to be protected. thought not every girl. well forget about this idiot...

"What a bad prefferance,master I suggest you should marry Eliza instead.."(Brionac)

"Heh,Why you say that?"(Ezax)

To be honest I am surprised for brionac says this..after all I think brionac hate this kind of thing for sure with his knight attitude.

"Eliza,maybe indeed was lacking. But she was earnest and very knightly. I believe she will be able to separate her work and her love to you She also a responsible girl which will be a nice mother.Not to mention she also has feelings for you.that's why master should choose her instead."(Brionac)

'Maybe what you say was true,but Eliza feeling to me was like respect instead of love."(Ezax)

Hear this brionac turn silent..but I feel If I seen his face he will facepalmed..

"Ah you guys no fun at all. The best woman of course must be a girl who is older than him.that girl also must be who care her family the most and knows you like her backhand!!after all no matter how bad is she~~as long she care her family and know what you family need.You will be happy.(Leviathan)

"That was interesting. But I am agree with that kind of idea..after your partner don't need to be perfect to lead  a happy. Still leviathan I never met that kind of girl as you describing."(Ezax)

 "I know. I hope you can met this kind of girl soon~~I want to see your child~~"(Leviathan)

Thought your previous words was greed..but your peverted personality can't be gone huh?Then it was kulshedra turn.

"Umm,Master can I talk?"(Kulshedra)

"Sure."(Ezax)

Fafnir and the others was like parents..but for me kulshedra was like little sister. She was so innocence..if only she had a nice fur~~ it will be perfect.

"Master, I think master should found a person  who can master trust and trust master more than anyone. Trust between each other much more important than anything."(Kulshedra)

"Well,Trust like that will be rare..after all not everyone can open their heart to each other like that..But I will do my best."(Ezax)

"nn."(Kulshedra)

Once this over this time it was typhon.

"Ckckckc!!You guys have no sense..the best girl of course must be the girl who has the best intelligent!!As long she was clever surely she can made Ezax do his work easier."(Typhon)

....I rather expect this from typhon who likes books more than anyone else. If fafnir was a wise,then typhon will be genius. After all his memory was too far to amazing..Then everyone response was one thing.

"yeah,yeah..she will be more interested in her research and book than Ezax."(Tiamat)

"I think a girl like that will treat the marriage as only sort of ceremony..Ezax won't be happy with that kind of marriage."(Leviathan)

"Boring~~if she can't play with me then I don't like it."(Kulshedra)

"Not to mention a clever girl like that often used others.. I don't like the relationship by using each other.(Fafnir)

"A clever girl like that will often do cheap way. You must fight fairly if you can.."(Brionac)

Hearing their remark...typhon only said one words.

"FINE!!!!!I know I am lame!!"(Typhon)

Yep he is sulking. A person with a lot of knowledge wasn't always wise..what fafnir says was true. Then bahamut was silent finally orpressed by others..this wasn't this a bullying?

"Hey bahamut!!tell us!!What is your type!!"(Tiamat)

"I am also interested in your opinion in this. If you don't mind please share it with us."(Brionac)

"Tell one-chan please~~one-chan was interested in little mut mut (little bahamut nickname) preferance."(Leviathan)

"Oni-chan,would you please tell me?"(Kulshedra)

"Bahamut tell Ezax,after all it concerned about our future you know!!"(Typhon)

"Hmm!!I don't have anything to tell you!!"(Bahamut)

Bahamut roared in anger. I expect this from anti social dragon...thought sometimes I wondering..was he a guy or girl? Well I never check him in dragon forms..so I expect he was a female  until fafnir says so..fafnir must thinking this was fun. Anyway fafnir who try to make some mischief..

"Fafnir is homo so there is don't need to ask.."(Fafnir)

...Fafnir.....you know..you musn't joke like that..as I thought that I felt they were fighting ..well the winner is obvious thought..as I thought that I descend..and then once I arrived at 

"...We met again Ezax.."(??????)

"You..why you are here?"(Ezax)

The mysterious girl already waiting with behind her the corpse of child. As I thought that suddenly the door where I came in closed.

"The time limit is 1 hour. If you failed to get out of this place in that time..all of your friend,the villager of this city. They will die.."(??????)

"WHAT!!!They are innocence!!"(Ezax)

"...I don't care about that. the only way for you to get out of this place...break the stone I prepared for you."(???????)

As she said that a huge stone appeared in front of me....this stone.

Pain reflection stone!!!What's more this purity. It was 100%. Pain reflection stone..It was 1 of the rare material that said can't reflect pain..depend on the purity..the pain that reflected can be 5 or 10 times. This stone can't be used as armor because it was really fragile..from the purity. It will be 100 Times...If I can hold out..then I will die!!

"What's wrong ,for every seconds you hesitate..your friends life will also slowly dying..after all their camp was attacked."(??????)

This stone is big..I can't chip it slowly. But if I make mistake..then my friends willl die..what I SHOULD DO?There is no way I can't fight her..her barrier was also very strong..even thought this stone was a fragile..it will need at least to use a silver hammer to break it in one go...but 100 times of that.....Can I hold it?this is matter life and death..she only stared at me with cold eyes...then she take out some orb...and then it shows everyone was attacked by horde of mutant...not to mention..there was kind strange mutant that lead it...

"...IF you don't have guts..then you can watch your friend die..one by one.."(?????)

"I will protect them!!I will protect them even if it cost my life!!"(Ezax)
