“Alright, Shiro. Take me to where the Dragon King lives.”
“Sure.”
Shiro then turned into a dragon and I climbed on her back.
Apparently, the Dragon King is her father.
In other words, we’re currently heading to her hometown and her parents’ home.
We soared through the sky at breakneck speed for a few hours before eventually arriving at an island in the sky.
It’s a Sky Island!
Lucifer used to live on this flying island, too.
More accurately, he was held prisoner on this island.
Apparently, there are some Sky Islands that are constantly moving about and others that stay in a static location. This one was the latter, and a pretty big one at that.
The Black Dragon village had a very rural feel to it, with paths that you could just barely call roads and houses scattered around the roads but the location where the White Dragons lived was quite different.
“That’s my house.”
The building that Shiro was pointing at with her sharp claws was a domed palace that looked similar to a mosque. The exterior was painted a pure white, perhaps being meant to symbolize the White Dragons.
Each generation of Dragon King is supposed to, and has lived in that palace after their coronation. The exterior and interior are repainted according to the respective Dragon King’s liking every time a new ruler is crowned.
The palace might be painted pitch black if the Black Dragon’s get their way, since the title isn’t restricted to White Dragons.
We landed in the square in front of the palace.
I was about to activate the 《Stealth• Extreme》 skill when Shiro spoke up.
“There is no need for that.”
“Is it alright for humans to be here?”
“No one cares.”
Shiro transformed and told me to follow her, seeming to want to give me a tour of the palace.
I stepped into the palace under her guidance.
There was no sign of guards. On the contrary, it looked like there wasn’t any sign of life at all.
The first time I encountered someone in the palace was after walking for quite some time.
That person was lying face down on the hard floor and breathing softly in his/her sleep, with his/her face hidden by silvery-white hair.
It seemed like an odd location for a nap, if you ask me.
After using Identify, the following information popped up.
Pemupemu
Race: White Glittering Dragon
Level: 84
Skills: [Roar], [Dragon Breath], [Limit Break].
… Pemupemu?
“I’ll introduce you. My older sister.”
Apparently, this was White’s sister.
Hang on, how can you introduce us to each other when one of us is still fast asleep on the floor?
And her name’s Pemupemu! Is that a joke? Please tell me this is a joke. If this is for real, it would probably be better for the Black Dragons to be ruling.
”This way.”
I guess Shiro thought that she’d finished introducing her properly, because she began to walk off.
“Wait, wait, wait. This is your sister?”
“Yes.”
“And her name’s Pemupemu?”
“That’s right. It’s a really cool name.”
I don’t understand the coolness of what dragon’s consider to be cool…
I wonder if Shiro will also give others such strange names in the future……..
『Shiro is still quite a decent name, considering their naming style huh?』
“Wouldn’t the Dragon King’s daughter be the princess? Why is a princess sleeping in the hallway?”
“She’s always enjoyed sleeping with her face on cool ground.”
“You’re not wrong, but still!”
Lets just turn around and go home.
”Hmm……..”
Shiro’s sister moaned softly and squirmed a little as if roused by our voices.
Or so I thought before she turned over and started rolling around in circles,
slamming into the wall and falling asleep again.
“She has to change position every once in a while so that it’s nice and cold again. She might not wake up for two to three days.”
“Oh, so in other words, she’s just as weird as you.”
From the look of her face, which I only saw for a moment while she was rolling, she might look extremely beautiful but just be another disappointment on the inside.
Are the White Dragons mentally alright?
After walking a little further, I came across another dragon.
“Oh my gosh~ It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a human~”
The woman with the smiling face and a big smile on her face was, according to her appearance, around 30 years old.
She is quite a beauty.
But given that she’s an adult dragon, she’s probably over a hundred years old by now.
Perrone
Race : Rainbow Dragon
Level: 102
Skills: [Roar], [Dragon Air], [Breakthrough].
Perrone!?
“I’ll introduce you. My mum.”
It seems like she’s Shiro’s mother.
“Hold on! She’s not a White Dragon?”
“That’s right. Mum is another type of divine dragon. Rainbow Dragon.”
A closer look revealed that her hair was changing color little by little.
Apparently the characteristic feature of the Rainbow Dragon was that the color of their scales gradually changes over time, and that feature seems to appear in the hair when they take human form.
”But White Dragons were still born from that pairing, huh?”
《The rainbow shining dragon is a dragon species that’s something like a mutation. They’re not terribly strong, but they’re far superior to other divine dragons in terms of rarity.》 Nabiko said.
‘Ufufu, did something happen~? It’s unusual~ That you’ve returned~”
She greeted Shiro with a somewhat laid-back voice.
It was a peaceful scene that showed no sign of being aware a coup was being plotted .
“Is dad around?”
“Dad? Ufufu, he is~. Please let me see your face more often in the future, okay~, I’ll be really pleased~.”
“Sure.”
“Oh? By the way, who’s that over there~?”
I was finally noticed.
“Karuna.”
“Hi, I’m Karuna.”
”Oh my gosh, it’s unusual that you’ve brought a friend home~” says Shiro’s mother happily.
It doesn’t seem to her what kind of person I am.
”Anyway, so you’re Karuna-san~ That’s a really interesting name~.”
I don’t want to hear that coming from you!
After all, the dragon’s sense of taste was incomprehensible.
Then we came to the Dragon King’s throne room.
Dragons are the king of the monsters, and the ruler of the dragons is the dragon king, so
I was a little nervous as I went in.
“That’s, Dad.”
And in the direction Shiro pointed to, was…
“… A dead body?”
I could see the back of a chair that looked like a throne, where something in the shape of a person appeared to be just hanging there, like a rag.
It appeared to have signs of life, or more accurately, just be sleeping.
Chomuchomu
Race: White Dragon
Level: 122
Skills: [Roar・Extreme], [Dragon Ki・ Extreme], [Limit Break].
Another weird name appeared.
“Shiro-san, where’s the Dragon King?”
“That’s him.”
… I guess that’s the Dragon King after all.
“Ufufu, Chomuchomu-san~ Likes to sleep in all different sorts of poses~” Perrone tells us.
Isn’t that too different of a sleeping pose?!
Shiro’s sister was awful too, but this was on a level that made hers seem cute.
”Huh!?”
The Dragon King twitched.
Oh, he’s the kind where you can tell the quality of sleep from his movements.
A painful thump occurred when the Dragon King fell off his throne’s backrest and fell to the ground head first.
You could still hear the uninterrupted, quiet sounds of his breathing after the fall.
“You managed to keep sleeping through that?!”
… Seriously, will this Dragon King be alright?
『No. That’s probably why there’s a coup about to happen.』
It’s just as you say, Nabiko.
