Chapter 37 – Suspicious Pink Girl (4)



“Humans are known to age quickly…”

Hindrasta spoke, eyeing me up and down.

“But why haven’t you changed a bit?”

“I’ve been living a carefree life for the past ten years.”

“How nice for you. Some of us have been living days filled with shame and anger.”

I laughed out loud at that.

“Isn’t ten years just a blink of an eye for a dragon? You’re still as dramatic as ever. Just like back then.”

Hindrasta’s eyes twitched.

“But…”

Instead of replying, she looked exaggeratedly over my shoulder and around us.

“Is that yellow-headed sidekick of yours dead?”

“Oh, you mean Linus, the hero who drove off the troublemaking lizard Hindrasta?”

Her eyes twitched again.

“Far from it. He’s doing very well. We even had drinks together recently.”

“So why are you alone?”

“He doesn’t work here.”

“He’s not here?”

“No.”

“Then where is he?”

Hindrasta pressed for Linus’s whereabouts.

“Honestly, I don’t really know. But he’s not here, that’s for sure.”

“I see… That yellow-head isn’t here…”

She fell silent, deep in thought.

“If you’re planning to get revenge on Linus, forget it. Don’t cause trouble only to be completely eradicated this time.”

But Hindrasta didn’t seem to hear me. She didn’t respond.

I took the opportunity to study her closely.

A youthful, cute face with a petite figure and striking pink pigtails that drew attention anywhere.

Even when polymorphing, she chose that appearance. Quite the peculiar taste.

White Dragon Hindrasta, also known as the Trouble Lizard.

Considering the lifespan of a dragon, she’s relatively young, but during the Four-Year War, she was an incredible nuisance to the human coalition.

She appeared out of nowhere across the continent, reversing nearly won battles, cutting supply lines, and causing entire legions to starve.

Many commanders suffered from nervous breakdowns and hair loss because of her.

Surprisingly, she never engaged in direct combat.

She would appear suddenly, unleash her breath attack, use the dragon’s special skill ‘Dragon Roar’ to throw the battlefield into chaos, and then vanish.

The first time I was tasked with dealing with her, the battlefield was a mess.

As soon as Hindrasta appeared, everyone, human or animal, fled in panic, destroying tents, spilling food supplies, and abandoning weapons….

Even in this fantasy world, dragons are considered semi-legendary, extremely rare creatures.

What’s funny is that even the demons on the field would scatter in fear, so her appearance guaranteed that both sides’ plans were ruined.

In response to this, the Imperial Intelligence Department came up with the analysis that Hindrasta appears to have participated in the war simply to cause ‘chaos’.

She seemed to move with the Demon King’s army but never fully cooperated, raising questions about whether there was any contract between them.

Her sudden appearances, throwing battlefields into disarray without mass casualties, earned her the nickname ‘Trouble Lizard’. Eventually, Linus and I, who had just been promoted and became members of the Special Task Force, were tasked with eliminating her.

After months of scouring the continent, nearly getting portal sickness, we got intel that Hindrasta was targeting the rear of the retreating noble army.

We almost captured her there, but unfortunately she slipped away. During this mission, I befriended Duke Toulouse, one of the commanders.

Perhaps even then, Hindrasta did not intend to exterminate the noble army, but simply wanted to see the humans running wild in fear.

Anyway, after that, she completely disappeared, and we assumed she either died or went into hibernation post-war.

Who would’ve thought I’d meet her as a pink-haired girl at the academy?

Why in that form, though…?

While I pondered this, Hindrasta stood still.

Getting hungry, I spoke up first.

“Hey, are you listening? Just stay quietly. Don’t make trouble.”

Since Hindrasta hadn’t caused direct harm, it would be difficult to hold her accountable for anything specific.

If she argued that she was just taking a stroll outside her nest and we misunderstood her intentions, I’d have no counterargument.

On the contrary, she could even claim that we should be thankful it ended there and didn’t escalate, which would be a headache.

Therefore, unlike the demons and other traitorous intelligent species who faced war crime trials, Hindrasta wasn’t hunted or tracked down, and was gradually forgotten by the world.

So if Hindrasta kept a low profile and lived quietly, she would be able to live a long life without any trouble.

“Do you understand? You’re smart, so you get what I mean, right? Even though Linus and I beat you up, you’re a dragon, so you recovered quickly…”

“Thank you.”

Hindrasta interrupted me.

“Right. It is something to be thankful for. What human would give life advice to a dragon? If you understand, go back and…”

“I wondered what would happen if you had died in the meantime.”

Hindrasta interrupted again.

“I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to get my revenge, but I’m grateful that you’re still alive.”

“What?”

I felt a slight current in the air around Hindrasta’s body. It was the aura that only extremely powerful beings like dragons could use.

Ah, she really is…

“Foolish creature. You shouldn’t have told me that yellow-headed bastard isn’t here.”

Hindrasta slowly approached me, her aura flaring up.

“Letting your enemy know you’re defenseless, are you really that stupid?”

“What are you talking about? It’s not that I’m stupid, it’s just that whether Linus is here or not doesn’t really matter. And you!”

I pointed my finger at Hindrasta’s feet.

“Stop coming closer!”

Hindrasta grinned.

“Are you scared?”

“No, but you’re damaging the ground!”

The paving stones beneath Hindrasta’s feet were cracking under her aura. There were already a dozen or so cracks. Repairing those would cost money.

If it were just about maintaining old facilities, that would be one thing, but this would require unnecessary academy budget expenditures.

We already have plenty of places where the budget is needed, sigh.

“I’ll kill you here and wash away the shame of ten years ago!”

Aura surged violently from Hindrasta’s shoulders.

Seeing that, I realized talking wouldn’t work.

Dragons are arrogant and stubborn; once they decide to do something, they see it through to the end.

Moreover, Hindrasta had a history of humiliation from being beaten and driven off by the humans she looked down upon.

She had decided to take revenge, and with Linus not here, she probably thought she could easily take me down. Nothing in this world could stop her.

Even though I didn’t want to fight a dragon I had no personal grudge against, I had no choice.

If she reverted to her true form, this residential area would be destroyed.

Considering the cost of rebuilding, it would be cheaper to take her down here.

And I had another reason.

This idea came to mind as soon as I realized that ‘Sophie’ was Hindrasta in polymorph…

“Die!”

Hindrasta charged at me, shattering the paving stones.

As expected from a dragon, her aura was so dense it felt like an invisible wall closing in.

If that hits the ground, more paving stones will be ruined….

Making a decision in the brief moment of her charge, I tore her aura apart with my hands and grabbed Hindrasta by the neck.

“Kuh!?”

Hindrasta looked at me with startled eyes.

“How… how is this…?”

“Why do you think? It’s the natural result.”

“But… you’re alone….”

I pulled Hindrasta closer and kneed her in the stomach.

“Argh!”

With a short gasp, Hindrasta’s body went limp.

If a human could beat a dragon, it wouldn’t matter if it was one or two humans.

Did she think she could kill me without transforming into her true form?

How stupid.

I’ll have a talk with her once she wakes up.

I had a good idea.

If I used her correctly, she could greatly contribute to the development of our academy.

I slung the unconscious Hindrasta over my shoulder and headed to the infirmary.
