Episode 448 St. Palmyro and the Blood of the Dragon King

I thought back to Quette, who was hospitalized after being hit with an ultrasound breath. Since he is a member of the team, I decided to take his horns and retrieve them from another head. After consulting with Shekhar and the others, it was decided to share one of the horns with Quette.

　As we were stripping and retrieving parts of the carcass of the Vasuki Dragon King, Thai military and adventurers' guild officials rushed to the scene.

Thank you, everyone, for defeating the Varski Dragon King."

　An Adventurer's Guild official speaks up to thank him. Shekhar noticed that the army was about to carry the carcass.

What's the Army Doing?"

The carcasses of demons are priceless if they are not dealt with quickly.

　Blood is particularly susceptible to decomposition. The climate in Thailand is also a factor, but blood seems to deteriorate after a few hours.

You don't seem used to it. Are you okay with it?"

　I made sure I saw the military guys flopping around.

No one is accustomed to working with such a big fish. We'll try to process it as quickly as possible, but blood may be a no-go."

　The meat and skin are apparently fine. While talking with the guild officials, I heard that Quette, who had been taken to the hospital, had regained consciousness. Gilbert takes out a magic-disabling sword.

I'm going to have to give this sword back."

I have to deliver the antlers, so I'll take them along with me."

　I take the magic-disabling sword from Gilbert and head for the hospital where Quette is staying. When I arrived at the hospital, I asked what room he was in and went to his room.

　Quette was lying in bed, watching TV.

Are you all right now?"

I'm sorry for the trouble I caused you. I was a fool to get carried away. By the way, have you seen my sword?"

　I took out my magic-disabling sword and handed it to him.

I'm so glad you brought it. I appreciate it."

This is Mr. Couette's share.

　I gave him the horns. It was the horn of the head that was breathing cold breath. Quette seemed to think that he might not get his share, and was quite pleased.

This story originates from Royal Road. Ensure the author gets the support they deserve by reading it there.

　Quette deserves credit for damaging the two necks of the Varski Dragon King and creating the opportunity for him to hide in the hole. He is entitled to his share.

　After Quette told me what happened after he passed out, I headed to the Adventurer's Guild.

　When we were shown to the branch manager's office, Sjökar and the others were talking with a man who was the chairman of the Adventurers' Guild.

How was Quetto?"

He said, "He seems to be okay. He said he would recover after a couple of days in bed.

　Shekhar and the others seemed relieved. The fact that they defeated them without inflicting a single casualty is to be commended.

　The chairman of the board, a representative of the Thai Adventurers' Guild, thanked me repeatedly. Shekhar looks at me and then replies.

The reason we were able to defeat them this time was because of the presence of Mr. Sakaki, a living magician.

I have heard that life magic is popular in Japan and France. It is necessary to nurture those who are talented in life magic in our country as well.

　It seems that all the hard work of coming all the way to Thailand was not in vain. The carcasses of the Vasuki Dragon King will be distributed, taking into account their activities and other factors. We also declared what we had stripped and collected ourselves, so that portion would be deducted.

　We talked it over and decided on the percentage of distribution. I got the most, but that's because I was recognized for my success.

I really admire what you did, Mr. Sakaki. The power of that magic weapon was fearsome."

　The guild president said, and Gilbert nodded.

What kind of sword is that?"

I am Clau Solas, the Light Sword."

'Great. That's a magic weapon that's classified as one of the major mythological class. And it's cutting off three heads with living magic."

　Everyone seemed to agree, so we decided to get about a hundred kilos of meat from the back part in kind and exchange the rest for cash. We had enough for one neck, so we had the skin and fangs. So, I only wanted the meat that might be tasty.

　Incidentally, the Thai government takes taxes when it cashes in, so the higher the Dragon King material sells, the more the Thai government profits.

By the way, is the meat of the Dragon King really that good?"

　Gilbert asked.

At least it doesn't seem to be poisonous. But we don't know the efficacy or taste yet. The person who wins the auction will investigate. But the skins would make excellent armor.

　Most of them decided to redeem the items for cash instead of the actual items. However, since they are auctioned off, it will take some time for the cash to be transferred.

　I received the Dragon King's hundred kilograms of meat and returned to Japan on a special plane, escorted by the Self-Defense Forces. When I returned to Shibusi City, I reported to the branch manager.

Grim reported that you were the most successful. I am really proud."

By the way, how come you didn't notice the appearance of the lodgerless in the Ayutthaya dungeon?"

There was no particular reason, just that they weren't managing it properly."

　Kondo, the branch manager, showed his anger and said.

　After I finished my report, I returned home and stocked the Dragon King's head and a hundred kilograms of meat that I had stored in a storage armoire into a large freezer in my warehouse. I had purchased these items to store meat and other items in case a large demon made a dungeon error, but I had never had a chance to use them before.

　　　◆◆◇◇◇◆◆◇◇◆◇◆◇◆◆◇◆◆◇◆◆

　St. Palmyro, who was giving a cure in England, learned that three days after the Vasuki Dragon King was defeated in Thailand, his flesh was to be auctioned off.

　St. Palmiro learns about it from a newspaper left at the hotel and calls his squire, Luberti.

　When Rubberti read the newspaper, he didn't seem to understand what it meant.

What is wrong with this?"

If the Dragon King's flesh is being auctioned off, that means the blood may have been collected as well."

"...... You don't mean to say, 'Blood of the Dragon King'?"

Yes. The blood of the Dragon King, the material for Amrita, may be available."

I'm sorry, sir. I will confirm that the "Blood of the Dragon King" has indeed been recovered.

　Luberti called four of his men and dispatched them to Thailand.

　He then found out that the Thai army had recovered and dismantled the carcass of the Vasuki Dragon King.

The army and the Adventurers' Guild of Thailand dismantled the Vasuki Dragon King, but they were too slow and delayed in cooling the carcass.

　St. Palmiro's eyes became severe.

'No way, did I ruin your precious blood?

"It would seem so."

"Idiots. ......."

I just got some powerful information."

What do you mean by information?"

It seems that Sakaki, a Japanese adventurer, brought one head and neck back to Japan frozen on site.

　Hearing this, St. Palmiro's eyes glittered.
