Reincarnated as a Villain That was Killed Before the Game Starts

[43] The dragon journey seems to resemble a wedding

“Come on Elliot, let’s take a nap!

After handing the jersey to Ixis, looking back, the horse beast man Elliot was pulling his lips together and leaning over.

“What’s wrong, Elliot?

If you ask me, my black eyes will stare at me in pieces.

“Hilda…… Mako likes Ixis?

“What!?

The same goes for what I was asked, but I didn’t know why Meiko and Elliot called me.

You shouldn’t know my name Mako except Claude or Ixis.

“Why do you have that name?

“Ixis, sometimes I call you Mako about Master Hilda. It’s like a secret just for the two of us and it’s sloppy.”

Asked in surprise, Pompous and Elliot spilled it that way.

“Mako’s the real name?

I wonder how far Elliot feels.

Those eyes are invisible in the back and the emotions are hard to read.

The eyes, which seemed dead until before, were pure as black with crust.

I was hesitant to lie.

Speaking of which, when I was obstinate with my first kiss.

Ixis felt like he was calling me Mako all the time to attract my attention.

Maybe a little too careless, Ixis!

With that in mind, I worry about what to do.

“I can keep a secret. Meiko, can I?

Elliot, staring straight at me, seemed anxious to be turned down.

My hand shaking my clothes is shaking a little.

I think maybe he’s been worried about it for a long time, and that’s why he courageously asked me.

“Okay. Don’t tell anyone else, okay?

After a little trouble, put Elliot to bed and tell her everything.

I thought it was full of things I didn’t know, but Elliot wasn’t moving at all.

You may be really surprised because your emotions are hard to read… but your expression doesn’t change at all.

“If Mako no longer belongs to Hilda, will it belong to Ixis?

“I mean, it belongs to Ixis, or he’s going to take me on a journey with him. I miss being alone in a ghost.”

If he answered the question, Elliot looked like he was thinking.

“Then stay Hilda forever. You don’t have to come back for real.”

Elliot hugs me all the time.

Actually, you think Hilda’s someone else, or that I was a ghost?

For Elliot, he doesn’t care about the neighborhood.

The fact that you need me made my tear glands seem loose by accident.

All you know about me is Claude, Ixis and Jimmy.

Claude and Jimmy are waiting for Hilda to return to this body.

Although Ixis was different, it was the first time he had shown me in his attitude that he wanted me to be here like this.

“Thank you, Elliot. Glad you need it.”

For the first time since you told me, I think you were careful.

Meiko is not inherently present here, in the precarious presence of a ghost.

Maybe that’s what I was wondering, like no one was looking at me.

As I always do, Elliot strokes my head gently.

I was kind of relieved to be able to take such care of myself.

“I need Mako, so…”

I hear Elliot’s soft voice as she slowly falls into the mellow.

– Meiko needs me, too?

The voice suddenly went low.

And I felt a soft feeling drop on my flutter cheeks.

“It is the flame of the Red Lotus buried in the darkness of the end. Break down the fantasy dragonfly and blow it up in the name of Hilda Austin! – The Sphere of Fire (Lipca)!

Spin the spell in a heavy tone and unleash the power.

In front of me, a firepillar rose that stretched to reach heaven.

The flames that just burn everything down are so huge that they’re going to swallow one castle easily.

That and this futile long dialogue and pose, shame strikes me later, even without people around.

It must be a dragonfly. In the meantime, I tried to say it because it looks good, but is it some kind of creature?

Well for now…… I’m really glad this is the desert with no eyes or nothing.

Right now this is the middle of the desert.

Ixis brought me across the space so I could practice magic.

What magic can be used for Hilda, and then which magic to use for a magical confrontation with the prince?

Me and Ixis had come all the way to a place like this in this heat of the middle of summer to think about it.

“It’s time for a break. Here, come on.”

Ixis rips the space apart and lets me into my room sweating.

Rooms in different spaces of Ixis that connect anywhere quickly are very convenient.

“But Hilda is horrible. All six attributes can be used, and all but the earthly attributes are of the highest class…… impossible. Are you sure you’re human?

“It’s a human and elf half, isn’t it?

“That’s not what I meant. Too much off the standard.”

Answer the squeaky Ixis, and Ixis exhaled heavily.

I came here today and tried some magic.

Surprisingly, Hilda was able to use all six basic attributes of this world, including the water attributes she granted to Feather.

Wind, water, flames, earth, light, darkness.

Among the six basic attributes, one or two can be used by ordinary people. Three in many.

Even if you have various attributes, you won’t increase the magic level of that attribute unless you use it.

Many people limit the magic to the first attribute, and the second and third attributes are mostly auxiliary or imparted to the user demon.

Rarely can all attributes be used in this way, and few people are able to extremes everything.

That is the kind of legend that can only be found in books called The Great Wizard, The Great Sage, etc.

I thought Hilda was a high spec, but I didn’t think it was this far.

What a great wizard level it was.

“But if you’re so strong, there’s no need for me to protect you.”

Drink cold, chilled tea while Ixis does that.

“You won’t protect me?

I get a little anxious and look up at Ixis sitting in front of me.

“… you’ve decided to protect it. Hilda is definitely strong, but I’m worried about Meiko because he’s dodgy”

At the same time, I think Doji is a little terrible.

“Besides, it sounds like Meiko’s magic won’t activate unless he speaks that embarrassing spell. No matter how strong magic can be, it’s full of gaps.”

“… ugh”

Points out, stuffs your breath.

The magical confrontation with the prince is tomorrow.

I’ve tried everything, but apparently my magic doesn’t work without a spell.

Moreover, magic could only be used in mysterious long dialogues that were embarrassing and dressed in vain, as my brother had done in his previous life.

By the way, it’s more accurate and effective when you do it with Norinoli.

Besides, I can’t make any fine adjustments.

What I tried earlier, by the way, was the magic called Lipca in the initial steps of the flame attribute.

In this world, magic is commonly used when lighting lamps and pine lights, even on a daily basis.

It seems that the sphere of flame, which is originally about one fist, appears puffy.

But as you can see, if you try to light the lamp fire with my magic, instead of the lamp, everything in the building will burn out momentum.

Attack-type magic is too powerful, so I make up my mind to try not to use it against people.

“So, which one do you use in a confrontation with a prince?

“I figured I’d like the wind attribute. Then even if you run wild, it’s possible for Ixis to overthrow you, like before, right?

If asked and answered, Ixis replied yes.

“Is it time to continue? You want to be able to do this without having to use a spell, right?

“Yeah. I decided I just needed to be able to use magic, and I decided to give up. You’re tired of Ixis too, aren’t you? And it looks really hot.”

I shook my neck to the side against Ixis, who tried to stand up.

“… does Ixis only have those clothes?

“What’s abrupt?”

I thought to the lid and asked, and Ixis wrinkled between my eyebrows.

“Because even in summer, I wear costumes that hide all the way to the Dragon Nation’s neck. I thought it was gonna be hot.”

I was going to have a little public talk, but I found Ixis to be grumpy.

Maybe it was something you shouldn’t have asked.

“Oh, maybe the Dragon Clan has a temptation to only wear that costume? Is it annoying if I gave you a jersey?

Ixis said he was different if he noticed the possibility in the lid and said so.

“I’m free to wear anything else. It’s just… normal clothes don’t hide the scales.”

“Well, scales are important to dragons, so you shouldn’t show them, right?

I say to Ixis, who grumbled in a lower voice than usual, in a smaller voice that if you say so with the thought that it will be, it will also be different.

“… what”

“Huh?”

The blushing and whining voice was too small to hear.

If you ask back, Ixis looks disgusted and looks away.

I’m late. I’m late.

As I said I didn’t want to say, Ixis’ face was bright red.

“Going late?

“Don’t repeat it. Fool.”

If you speak unintentionally, you will be stared at.

“Oh, sorry.”

“No, it’s bad… it’s an eight hit. Besides, I need to talk to you before I go back inside.”

Ixis had hair or something and drank all the water, just as he was going crazy.

“If I were you, I’d be old enough to get a bride. I’m the fifth of the nine brothers in the middle, but I’m the only one who hasn’t found a scratch once.”

With his tired face, Ixis exhales.

I’ve seen this face before.

I think that was when I asked about the Dragon Bride when I went to Bird Nation.

Dragon tribes are born only men, and if they grow up, they travel in search of brides.

When I heard the explanation, I asked if Ixis was on his journey, and he looked like this.

She looks a lot like her fed up face when her sister (Sanjilu Single), who was her cousin in her previous life, asks her relatives if she will still be married.

Though I thought so at that time, it didn’t seem like a mistake.

“By the way, how old is Ixis?

“Four hundred and fifty.”

“Yo…… hiccup!?

I heard the dragon lived long, but it seems that ixis like late teens to early twenties actually lived long enough.

To me, surprised at my age, it makes me look like I didn’t want to tell you because Ixis was.

According to Ixis, although dragons vary greatly from person to person, they will leave the interior as adults by the time they are 100 years old.

And travel in search of the bride.

Most dragons will find a bride in less than a hundred years.

“You have Ixis too, don’t you? Aren’t you an all-you-can-choose bride?

“… I meant to choose, but the scales didn’t stain.”

In response to my question, Ixis leans down.

I don’t scratch while I wonder if you don’t deny what you have.

Because Ixis had a painful face I’d never seen.

Under the throat of Ixis, a water-colored scale, like a seashell upside down.

It’s called a reverse scale. It’s a connection – when you find someone who deserves to be a bride, they stain it in peaches step by step.

When it’s completely stained, feed it to the woman who will be the bride.

I heard that by taming the dragon’s power, he could turn his opponent into a dragon clan.

By the way, it seems that only a human woman can eat scales and become a dragon clan, and the dragon child will give birth.

“I went out with all kinds of women desperately trying to find a bride. I end up swinging at a woman every time. They say you didn’t really like me. It doesn’t stain the scales, so I just had to be told that. Then you can’t take the bride forever.”

I think Ixis may have been troubled the whole time.

In his eyes was a shadow falling, and there was a mocking sound.

“When I was little, I dreamed of having my own bride one day. My brother and I are going to get ahead of each other, and my mother will try to make me make a noisy match. My twin brother, who doesn’t have a bride, just like me, insists that we go numb him. Honestly, I’m tired. I’ve been pulling into different spaces.”

The image changes a bit to the unexpected Ixis confession.

After all, I seemed to be used to women, so I assumed on my own that I was the type of person who played freely.

It’s like this… is a young man tired of marriage.

By the way, where Ixis was pulling due to marital fatigue, Hilda showed up and was forced to make a pledge, and he was supposed to play guardian dragon.

“Except me and my brother right up there, they’re all already married. My brother Augusto has found several connections that stain the scales, but they fail because they don’t think of them. Well, it’s only because I’m scared of my face, and I’m easily misunderstood… and I don’t choose the scales to connect with problems I had before that. It doesn’t stain.”

Ixis looked like he’d given up already.

“Even though it’s been a long time since I got home, if I didn’t take the bridesmaid candidate home, they would surely say it loud. That’s why I wanted the role of lover, even if it was Mako.”

In a way that seemed like a compromise, Ixis turns his gaze away at me.

Although I’ve been a little cocky, it’s impossible for Ixis to be my lover, so I just have to say that I am.

“It’s hard for Ixis, too.”

“… ha, don’t cry when Meiko pities you”

It’s this attitude when people are showing you corner empathy, but Ixis.

But the appearance also seemed depressing.

The inability to find a bride for the Dragon Nation may be a pretty hard thing to do.

Travel all the way alone until you find a connection that allows you to be a bride.

It is only since adulthood that Ixis will have spent three hundred and fifty long months alone, even in simple calculations.

I felt a little lonely about that.

“Hey Ixis, how do I know they’re connected? I wonder how reverse scales can be dyed or something?

“Ask me that.”

If you ask with interest, Ixis has a grudge. He turns his eyes.

“Look, me, after you get out of Hilda’s body, you’re going on a journey with Ixis, right? I was hoping to help you find your wife.”

“I didn’t ask Meiko for anything like that. Are you going to be a matchmaker, Baba?”

Speaking of kindness, Ixis speaks that way with a frustrated face.

“I want to live without thinking about any more annoying things. They all know it’s connected at first glance, but I have no idea. If you like them and think about them all the time, the scales dye naturally. That’s what I heard, so I tried to think all the time about the one who became my lover, and it never stained me”

He used to write his opponent’s name all the time on paper, and sometimes he didn’t leave the side all four or six times so he had to think about them.

“But I couldn’t. Be nice to the woman, stay on your side, whisper sweet words if you want. Woman is such a hassle and I’m mentally tired, but I tried so hard to be patient. Yet there was never any achievement. I want to make it easier now, but I’m not taking you on a journey if that’s what you mean until Meiko”

Stubborn way of saying it.

I thought you were on my side, but you betray me.

It was such a childish seeping tone.

“If you don’t like Ixis, I won’t. It’s just, for once, I’m a woman, too?

“Mako… doesn’t really feel like a woman”

When I was this dragon, he would say something terrible.

To me, there must be plenty of places that are feminine.

… I can’t think of anything on my own wherever they say!

“What are you angry about? I didn’t mean it in a bad way. I complimented you. Try to be fat like Meiko, don’t look over there. I just wanted to say that I don’t and I’ve never seen a woman laughing like an idiot under any circumstances.”

“No, that’s not a compliment at all, is it?

Though I accidentally put in a scratch, the talking Ixis face was serious in itself.

“Anyway, if you’re Meiko, you can put it on your side and take a trip”

Ixis laughs.

With me, I don’t need a connection.

I’m unintentionally thrilled with words that can be taken that way.

For some reason it was selfish and felt sweet.

Isn’t Ixis fond of Maria?

That’s what I think and I notice the pretense.

Because Ixis doesn’t stain the reverse scales, he said he might like Maria but he’s giving up.

… Then I wonder if Ixis will stay with me the whole time.

I hope so.

Return from Hilda to the haunted Mako and travel with Ixis.

If Ixis had a lover… what a thought.

When that happened, I thought I was lonely.

I can’t believe I’m thinking this.

Even Ixis really wants a bride, but this idea goes hand in hand with wishing Ixis misfortune.

But.

– If you’re Meiko, you can put it on your side and take a trip.

to the words of that Ixis.

I felt my heart fill strangely.
