The first-ever Rainbow Dragon Special Individual… I didn't expect for
such a thing to appear, and upon hearing Dr. Vier's words, all of us
stiffened.
In the midst of all this, the Rainbow Dragon, after emerging from its
egg, slowly approached Sieg-san.
Seeing its movement, Sieg-san gently reached out her hand, to which
Rainbow Dragon began fawning over her, rubbing its face against Siegsan's hand.
[…S- She's so cute…]
It seemed that the Rainbow Dragon's cuteness won out over Sieg-san's
surprise from her existence, and she picked up the Rainbow Dragon,
her lips slacked, forming a smile.
The Rainbow Dragon didn't put up any particular resistance, and just
quietly nestled within Sieg-san's embrace.
[…She doesn't squeal at all huh.]
[Rainbow Dragons were originally very quiet dragons. They rarely
squealed, and didn't cause any trouble unless they were harmed first.
That's why the diamonds in their tails could be mined.]
As Dr. Vier gave an explanation in response to my mutters, Lilia-san and
the others gradually began to recover from their astonishment.
[Sieg… Isn't that child hungry?]
[Ahh, you're right… Errr, Dr. Vier, what do Rainbow Dragons eat?]
[They are omnivores, so they eat basically everything.]
Hearing Lilia-san's words, Sieg-san consulted Dr. Vier, before taking out
some food that she must have prepared beforehand.
She then brought it close to the Rainbow Dragon, which stretched out
her neck and began to eat.
[…It's so cuuuuteee…]
It seemed like the Rainbow Dragon's appearance was to her liking. I'm
glad to see that Sieg-san became happy.
[Ummm, everyone… Wouldn't it be better if we left this place already?]
At that moment, Neun-san spoke to us, sounding somewhat flustered.
Hearing her words, all of us looked around… And saw a ridiculous
number of people glaringly looking at us.
The first-ever Rainbow Dragon Special Individual… Anyone would think
that its value was probably immeasurable. So, of course, there are lots
of people who would try to negotiate with us to sell it to them…
It seems like the situation has become troublesome… Can we even
escape from here? If the situation required it, we could use my
Teleportation magic tool…
"Hoohhh… I've never seen a Rainbow Dragon Special Individual before."
Thereupon, as if to crush that atmosphere, a heavy and majestic voice
resounded. The owner of the voice was, of course, the King of Dragons…
Magnawell-san.
"Young girl who became the master of the Rainbow Dragon… What is
your name?"
[Eh? Ahh… I- I'm Sieglinde!]
"Umu, I'll remember it. All dragons are my family… I hope you raise her
well."
[Y- Yes! I'll take good care of her!]
"Umu… There are fools who target Rainbow Dragons because they are
rare and those who ask for their jewels, I dare you to cause trouble and
incur my wrath… Though I'm sure there wouldn't be such fools here.
You can raise them in peace."
[Yes!]
I see, Magnawell-san called out to us to restrain the others… The
Rainbow Dragon Special Individual was extremely rare, so it wouldn't
be a surprise if some people went after us.
They might try to buy the Rainbow Dragon for a pile of money, or even
use their power to pressure Sieg-san to part with her because she was a
commoner.
Of course, if that happened, I'd do everything in my power to protect
Sieg-san… but I don't think that will be necessary anymore.
After all, to summarize what Magnawell-san just said, "If they bother
Sieg-san, the master of the Rainbow Dragon, or try to take the Rainbow
Dragon, he wouldn't forgive them".
"If I'm not mistaken… You are Miyama Kaito's lover, aren't you?"
[Eh? Ah, yes. That's right.]
"I see. Then, I, as well as the other members of the Six Kings, are on
your side. If you have any problems, you can always come to us."
[Y- Yes! I- It's my honor.]
And then, he ended it by making sure that Sieg-san herself wouldn't be
messed with… As expected of the reliable king Magnawell-san.
As for my name being mentioned as if it's a matter of course… Well, this
would help protect Sieg-san, so I'll put up with the embarrassment.
Anyways, I was thinking that this would end everything… After
finishing her meal, the Rainbow Dragon moved her tail and touched
Sieg-san's hand.
[Unnn? What's the mat——– Eh?]
As her tail circled around Sieg-san's palm, a black and incredibly
beautiful jewel appeared on the tip of its tail. Even though it was black,
the jewel was translucent, and rainbow-colored light could be seen
glowing from within. It was like a rainbow in the night sky… I'm not
very knowledgeable about jewels, but even I could tell that it was a very
expensive jewel.
[…Y- You're giving me this?]
[...…]
When Sieg-san asked, looking like she was at a loss, the Rainbow
Dragon silently nodded.
[…I see, so this is how Rainbow Diamonds are made huh.]
[No, you're wrong, Rainbow Dragons… It usually takes them a year to
slowly build up the jewel in their tail… They can't make a Rainbow
Diamond like that in an instant. In addition, the rainbow colors of this
jewel are much clearer than those of ordinary Rainbow Diamonds…]
[…Eh?]
[I knew that since she was a Special Individual, she would have abilities
that were different from the normal ones in some way but… perhaps,
this child… It might be possible for her to "create jewels as many as she
wants"…]
[ [ [ [ [ Eeeehhhhh!? ] ] ] ] ]
Hearing the words Dr. Vier muttered with a shuddering expression on
her face, we screamed in surprise again.
Dear Mom, Dad————– Black Bears have the power to command all
of their kind, while Bell has the power to manipulate black lightning…
Special Individuals have abilities that normal individuals do not have.
And it seems like this was also the same case for Sieg-san's Rainbow
Dragon—————– She had an astonishing ability.
