“W-w-w-what are you saying?”

“Nii-chan, your eyes are swimming.”

Shouhei rested his chin in his hands and looked at me.

I reflexively sent a glance at Aoi, she was silently eating her tonkatsu set meal with teary eyes.

Are you still eating?

“It looks like I hit the mark.”

Mikuma’s voice was on the quiet side, it seems it was so that the surroundings couldn’t hear her.

“Ichika-chan, what we’re going to talk about now needs to be kept secret, okay?”

“Is that furi? I won’t understand even if you tell me things that aren’t that difficult.” (TN: I think furi is a reference to boke and tsukkomi, not too sure what it means though)

“Not furi, it’s a request from me.”

“I understand.”

Like a two man comedy show, Mikuma and Saeki nodded.

“Um, Mikuma?”

“Yesterday, this video was uploaded to the Internet.”

Mikuma operated her smartphone with fluid motions.

After a bit, she turned her screen towards me.

“It’s kicked up a fuss on the Internet since yesterday, it seems like a bunch of people are verifying it right now.”

I took a quick look at the screen.

It was a famous video sharing site that I’ve seen a few times.

It was the ones where the comments were flowing from right to left.

The video player was running and the video began to play.

『Uwahh! What is that! What is thaaaat!』

A rough middle-aged man’s voice. Hm? It feels like I’ve heard it somewhere before.

『John Dayuu! Over here John Dayuu! Don’t bark John Dayuu! I’ll be darned, what is itー!』

The video shook all over the place. I have no idea what was being shown.

This was, a tiger’s face… ah!

『Look John Dayuu! This is not the place for your walk broadcast! This is the end of the world! Hey, John Dayuu! Where are you going John Dayuu!』

This uselessly flashy tiger embroidered jersey and that corgi wearing that fluffy sweater.

The uncle from the supermarket!?

『John Dayuu! It’s the god of lightning! It’s the end of the world! John Dayuu! Run away John Dayuu!』

John Dayuu has an impressive amount of fans!

I completely understand your dogs name.

After showing their feet, the video angle climbed, showing the black clouds squirming in the sky and the incessant downpour of lightning that filled the screen.

『Listen up viewers! After I brought John Dayuu out for a walk, terrible things started to happen! This is something I felt that I was obliged to do! I’m, finally the messiah!』

What the hell is the uncle saying.

【God has comeー】

【Masatsugu, escape!】

【Doggy run away】

【Finally, the day that Masatsugu will become a legend ……】

【Messiah Masatsugu’s Legend】

【Masatsugu! Now is the time to inherit Taeko’s will!】

【You practiced yesterday, didn’t you! Now is the time to fusion with John Dayuu!】

【No, this is bad, isn’t it】

【This, is the national highway from the neighboring prefecture… I’ve been there】

【Farewell Masatsugu】

【Taeko is waiting on the other side……】

【Don’t kill him off, how imprudent guys】

【What’s happening?】

Tension was running high in the flowing comments.

Was this uncle Masatsugu?

『Woaah! Something huge is coming! Impossible! Taeko! It seems like I can’t go over there yet!』

The uncle filmed the huge silhouette that covered the sky, after revolving he started to run with the dog.

He got into a car with rough breathing and the video ended there.

“I know this from a link that was posted to a certain site, but did you see the large shadow at the end?”

“Masatsugu was very impactful.”

It was the truth.

This video is a comedic video no matter how you look at it.

“Please don’t joke around, I’m being serious.”

“Sorry.”

But, this is bad.

That disturbance, was the guy who took the video there?

The last thing that you could see was without a doubt Aoi.

“This is the town that Kazamachi-kun moved to, right?”

“Hmm, I-I wonder? This much isn’t enough.”

“Kazamachi, your eyes are crawling.”

Saeki pointed at me with a delighted face.

“Nii-chan, you’re really bad at lying, huh.”

While drinking orange juice with a straw, Shouhei looked at me with half-open eyes.

I can’t express myself well, I’m really sorry for that.

“It’s a site I often go to since I like fantasy novels and movies, it’s a forum where they verify legends, folklore and such about the world.”

“When we were elementary school students there weren’t many times you had such gleaming eyes, so I know.

When I said that, Mikuma’s face turned red.

“You remember…

“It’s because you were talking about it so happily.

“Yuuno, it’s good that you’re happy, but can we advance the talk?”

Saeki’s voice brought Mikuma back.

“And so, the site verified that it was a dragon.”

“Dragon…”

They were able to analyze so much from such a short scene?

This is definitely bad.

“There’s practically no actual photograph of dragons, and there isn’t a single one that’s clear, but they are described in past books and legends. There are things that I don’t know whether they’re true or not, but there are also some that are lies no matter how you perceive it.”

This is bad, Aoi clearly becomes a dragon afterwards.

There was a strong light and she wasn’t a dragon for a long time, but if there’s a video that caught that instant, then we’re done.

“How is that related to these guys?”

I acted calm, I can’t reveal myself.

With my stupid response, it was possible that everything was going in one ear and coming out the other.

Mikuma straightened herself out and looked at Jaja.

“This child, um, Jaja-chan?”

“Aah”

Jaja was sleeping in the baby stroller and sucking on her right thumb.

Huh, she wasn’t sleeping like that yesterday.

“This is also true for this shopping mall, but public places, especially the interior of the buildings, have flight obstruction magic.”

That reminds me, the security guard from earlier also said something like that…

No, I know that flight obstruction magic was used for important buildings.

“It’s because there’s a lot of people here, so if would be dangerous if there are a lot of people that can fly.”

“Nii-chan, you don’t go to places with a lot of people, so you don’t know. You don’t have enough experiences, please reflect.”

Saeki was nodding and I told Shouhei to be quiet.

Wait a minute, this isn’t the time to humiliate me.

I looked at Aoi.

“…Yes. It’s a bit difficult to fly. Just a little.”

It’s a bit difficult to fly even for Aoi who has better control of flying than Jaja…

“That’s it Aoinoun-san. It shouldn’t just be ‘difficult to fly’. Expensive magic tools are used to control it, so it’s strong to the point where attack magic can’t be used either.”

“B-but Jaja flew… I can also fly if I felt like it.”

Why do I feel a bit proud…

“It’s not affected by the obstruction magic because the flying ability is stronger or as strong as it. These two aren’t realistic. Flying ability doesn’t change much even between different species, magic beyond this is military level destruction magic. The country is quite restricted and controlled, the individuals that can use magic are limited, and in the first place it’s unlikely that such magic tools are widely circulated.”

It’s becoming more complicated… but I lacked thought to continuously think about it.

But I can understand that it’s something that’s fairly dangerous.

“And so, not using the magical power that is the source of magic, and flying in a different way from the usual flying abilities.”

I gulped.

Mikuma’s serious expression, and that silent pressure, for some reason it felt like I was being cornered.

“Dragons are said to utilize a different method of flying, with spirits and dragon aura. In other words, the only ones that can fly in this building are dragons…”

For some reason, Mikuma looked at me and said with an apologetic expression.
