Weirdly enough, when Noemi noticed the wry smile on my lips all her brightness went back to normal.
«Oh, it's one of those again...» (Noemi)
I don't know what she means by that or by "again" but I won't say anything for now. I don't want to say something I'm not supposed to.
After that awkward event, I signaled everyone to go do their things until the time of departure.
I focus my attention on the direction Kit just mentioned so that he won't realize.
-That means that the only one left is the orc...-
I walk into the village and book an inn for everyone. Everyone except for Alais. She preferred to stay in the forest.
I do a little stroll around while appraising for potential good skills. Sadly, nothing really worth appeared. Since there's no one with good skills here, I decided to finish perfecting my claw weapons in the plains.
The genuine version of this novel can be found on another site. Support the author by reading it there.
Meanwhile, a large earth dragon appears.
-Aren't you just perfect to test my weapons on?-
I ready my claws and the dragon instantly lowers his body height.
-That title is frustratingly useful...-
I dash forward while dodging the dragon's bite sideways. I pass one of his legs and slash the inner part of his knee with a spinning slash. He shouldn't be able to use it for a while.
The dragon quickly moves and spins to strike me with the bowler he has on the tip of his tail. I quickly retract my claws and make the massive shield that I gave Gonzo.
I block the dragon's tail by putting the shield diagonally, deflecting the attack upwards and opening the dragon's "backside" for a counter attack.
The dragon screamed and drops to the ground while covering his genitals.
-Alright, this title is just a bit too much.-
After a few seconds, I had an Idea.
Kit happily struts by me and goes to talk with the almost crying dragon.
After a few minutes, Kit hurries back.
Kit sounds as surprised and perplex as a little big fox could get.
(Kit)
Kit hurries back and a single minute after the dragon gets up.
As Kit talks to the dragon, I open a portal to a parallel dimension. It's basically the upgrade of the inventory skill since I can store literally anything in there instead of just objects.
The dragon reluctantly walks into the portal which closed right after him.
-Since time doesn't flow the same way in there, he won't really be bothered. I think.-
