I was visiting the port town of Hargay to meet the Dragon Slayer who
had defeated a flying dragon by himself.
He seemed to be a very famous person in this town, as no matter
who I asked, everybody spoke as if they knew him, and yet. "Why
does no one know his real name!?"
No matter who I asked, all their answers were along the line of,
"Dragon Slayer's name? What, isn't it Dragon Slayer?"
As if there was a guy with that kind of name. However, no one really
knew his name, so I was starting to wonder if I should call him with
that name, as well.
Well, he was a man of valor who could defeat a Flying Dragon with a
single dagger.
I thought that it was likely that after acquiring a combat technique
that specialized in taking down dragons, he had made it as his
occupation.
Even I, the saintess who had the skill "Sword Saint" and was
chosen by the Holy Sword, had a hard time dealing with dragons.
To have an ability to defeat them alone with a single short sword, it
was just like he was born to enter my party.
Therefore, I had to add him into my party at any cost!
Then we would go cut down a swath of dragons and show that idiot
Exa a thing or two!
Balling up my fist, I continued to search for the whereabouts of
Dragon Slayer with the luggage carrier.
But without getting any good results, my frustration was boiling.
Or rather, why do I, the saintess, had to sweat and go around asking
for information!?
Luggage Carrier, read the room a little and said, "Saintess-sama,
please take a rest at the inn," or something, would you!?
Why did you ignore the saintess and drink water all by yourself!?
Haah, this was why useless men are… kh.
"Oya, is there something wrong, Saintess-sama?"
"N-no, I was just thinking the weather is very nice today."
"Certainly. I can't stop sweating because of it." Hahaha, the man
laughed heartily.
No, why were you laughing!?
Didn't you know that your sweat was really getting on my nerves!?
"Oya, where are you going?"
"I am going to ask around a little more. I think the receptionist should
be back at the guild by now."
"I understand. Well then, I will go back first and wait you at the inn."
...Huh?
No, why didn't you come too!?
◇ ◇
Although I was getting a headache for making a complete mistake in
selecting a luggage carrier, I went to the guild.
Of course, after coming to the town, I had immediately gone to the
guild, but at that time the person in charge was absent.
But it seemed that she was already back.
"——Excuse me. My name is Elma, the saintess. I heard that
Dragon Slayer-sama came here, however."
"My, welcome, Saintess-sama. My name is Lisa, I am in charge of
quests. Pleased to make your acquaintance." The receptionist lady
——Lisa bowed her head deeply.
If it was her, who knew the most about the adventurers in this town, I
was sure she had some clues. "Yes, likewise. So, do you know
where Dragon Slayer-sama is?"
"Yes. He went to the southern volcanic island——Magrid by boat the
other day."
See, Bingo!
As expected of me!
"Is that so? I see. Thank you. Ah, and——" His name... she
wouldn't know it anyway, so I didn't need to ask, huh.
"?"
"No, nothing. Thank you very much for the information." I thanked
her politely like how a saintess would, before quickly making my way
back to the inn.
Just you wait, Dragon Slayer!
I would personally add you to my party!
