Suddenly, a pink-haired girl in a maid outfit with a large bust (estimated L-cup) and a timid, nervous demeanor appeared before me.
This embodiment of innocence suddenly clung to me…!
“Hey, what’s going on, Jade!?”
“Who is she, big brother!?”
Men passing by and a pair of silver-haired sisters were shouting at me!
“Calm down, everyone. I don’t know this girl!”
Seriously, who are you!?
“Hey, you.”
“Your Majesty, I submit to you…!”
Huh?
“As a sign of my loyalty, please allow me to…!”
“What!?”
What is this girl saying!?
“Who are you!?”
“Have you forgotten!? You gave me this scar…!”
The mysterious girl grabbed the hem of her maid outfit and slowly lifted it, revealing a scar on her lower abdomen.
“See, it’s so clear…!”
“Is that a C-section scar!?”
What!? Why is she revealing this!?
“Jade, does this mean you…?”
“Did you have to perform a C-section because…?”
“No, no, no! I’ve never been with this girl!”
“Big brother…!”
The silver-haired sisters looked like they were about to faint. This is a mess!
Seriously, who are you, pink-haired girl…?
“Your Majesty, the Dark Dragon…!”
“Oh.”
So that’s the connection.
“I see. That’s why you were walking nervously through the human town, sniffing around, and had those strange eyes.”
“Huh?”
You’re a strange but cute one.
“Dark Dragon Majesty…?”
“Alright, let’s change locations. Come to my place.”
“The palace!?”
“It’s an apartment.”
I picked up the pink-haired girl and started to leave.
Oh, before that…
“Thirteenth Level Magic Cannon—‘Providence of Returning to Zero,’ super weak version.”
“Whoa!”
I released a weak flame of destruction, erasing the last few seconds of memory from the people around us.
That should do it.
“So, that’s how it is.”
I quickly brought the mysterious pink-haired girl into my room.
“Yes, let’s…!”
“Don’t start undressing!”
Don’t expose yourself. “My first time with His Majesty…!” No, don’t say that.
“That’s not the point. Who are you? You’re probably a monster disguised as a human, right?”
“Yes!”
I thought so. Clearly, she has no social skills and is too eager.
“So, what’s your name?”
“I am Basilisk, the ‘Stone Evil Dragon Basilisk.’”
“What?”
I had heard that name recently.
A female knight I know, Iris, had her arm turned to stone by a wicked noblewoman.
The whip that did it was covered in the scales of this Stone Evil Dragon.
“I see. I know your name.”
“Wow.”
“But that’s all. Have we met before?”
“Wow…”
She started to tear up.
Sorry about that.
“No, it’s fine. You’re incredibly strong, Your Majesty. I was a pretty strong dragon too, but I was defeated along with the other monsters…”
“Monsters? Oh, you’re a survivor from the ‘Holy War’ fifteen years ago.”
Yes, fifteen years ago, I was reincarnated as the strongest evil dragon and caused havoc.
As a former modern human, living outdoors was tough. I met humans and made a deal with the royal family for a more civilized life.
In exchange for providing me with a palace and food, I became their guardian dragon.
“I remember. The royal family requested a large-scale extermination to expand human territory.”
That was later known as the ‘Holy War.’
“You monsters formed a huge alliance, it was fun.”
“It wasn’t fun for me, Your Majesty…! The strongest dark dragon becoming a human king…”
“Not a king, but part of the royal family.”
Yes, I, the dark dragon, became part of the royal family.
When the ‘Holy War’ started, the royal family gave me a title to raise their status.
That’s why the knights and humans called me ‘Dark Dragon Majesty.’
…Though using ‘Majesty’ for anyone other than a king is disrespectful, so it was quickly forbidden after the war…
“The monsters wouldn’t know about that. That’s how I realized you weren’t human.”
“Ahaha… I’m glad you noticed.”
“I almost handed you over to the guards as a suspicious person.”
“Please don’t!”
Don’t cry.
Even if you’re a lower-ranked dragon, you could easily escape from humans.
“Hey, Bazi.”
“Bazi!?”
“Basilisk is too long, so Bazi it is. Anyway, why are you here? Knowing I’m on the human side.”
I placed my hand on her slender shoulder and looked into her eyes.
Just that made her tremble and sweat, knowing my true power.
“Hey.”
But I won’t let go.
A while ago, I was too kind to the scorching dragon Van and almost caused a disaster.
This time, I’ll be strict.
“Answer me. Why did a strong dragon like you sneak into a human town?”
Come on.
“Answer me. If you intend to harm my human friends with your power…”
Come on!
“I… I came to ask for your protection, Dark Dragon Majesty!”
…What?
