I Was Reincarnated As A Dragon
Chapter 162: The Cry

"Oh yes Sira, can you please close the path that leads to this place? I don't want anyone else to take it."

"Yes, fine."

After picking up some crystals for the purpose of decorating my house, I then carried Sira on my stomach and intended to go home soon, but when I saw all the beautiful sparkles from the crystal stones in this place, I saw, I feel bad about leaving him.

That's why, I asked Sira to close the entrance to this place with her earth magic and leave only a one-way entrance from my house, you could say there is only one way into this place that is through the mouth of the cave from my way and if there are foreigners who want to take it they first have to face me.

...✧✧✧✧✧...

The gruss!!

"This is the last one, miss."

"Yes, thank you Sira, now I'm not worried about leaving her."

"You're pretty greedy, miss."

"H-huh?! I'm not greedy Sira…! I only protect what belongs to me, have you never heard.

"Ah~ turns out there's such a thing."

"After all, it's not just that I'm asking you to close this road, I don't want any lost monsters coming to my place, I don't want to fight."

"That makes sense."

"You still don't believe it?"

"Almost."

"Ughh! I'm telling the truth, Sira."

Successfully closing both lines with the ruins from the use of earth magic, I was really very happy because all the entrances were closed tightly, but when I wanted to walk home, I was very happy, Sira who was in my grip suddenly let out a strange expression while talking with her eyes closed, Sira's words sounded quite piercing, but it did look in accordance with what I was doing from her point of view.

It's hard for me to deny it because I do look greedy by not letting anyone else take the mineral crystals, but surely I don't want to think of it as greed because I did it to protect myself and the existence of the crystal was just a stroke of luck that happened to be in my path. So, I also want to protect her ehehe.

Even so Sira still seemed to not believe my words and let out a very clear smile was mocking me, yes it was quite annoying, but I could not speak anymore. So, I could only sigh in resignation while continuing my journey back to my house.

...✧✧✧✧✧...

"Bright…! we get there, just put the crystal in my room the rest of it let me take care of it."

"Well."

…

"Emh... ahh~! then I take a walk outside first.. Sira! I'll be gone for a while, please take care of the house while I'm not around!"

"Yes!!" he shouted from inside my room.

…

"Alright, I'm going ehehe."

Arriving in front of the house with a fairly rough breath, I immediately sat on the stone in front of the entrance of my house, my wall, while Sira I asked to put the magic mineral crystal I just took into my room for then I turned into a small knickknacks that would decorate my house because that was my original purpose.

Sitting in silence while gazing at the ceiling of the cave that dropped a few drops of water to the same place every time, I was completely bored with this kind of atmosphere that felt extremely hollow and desolate. Therefore, the, I then leave my house to Sira who is still in my room while I want to find a new atmosphere with a walk through the forest to see exotic creatures in it.

"Ahh~! it's a nice day, yosh! time to flap my wings again"

"Well, I hope today is much better than the days before" I muttered as I walked out of the cave.

Opening the curtains of the falling vines covering the mouth of the cave, I immediately grinned with a slight sigh as the sunlight began to pierce my eyes with its bright rays. But even so, I was quite excited to start my new day, even more so because it had been the last few days never to walk away from my cave. So, I hope it will be a good day and different from the previous days.

...✧✧✧✧✧...

"It looks like I'm lucky the weather is cloudy, yes, although it doesn't seem like a good sign" I said as I flew around.

After a few hours I flew over the forest, a good afternoon with the sunlight spreading out to the corners of the forest slowly dimmed as it was blocked by the clouds that were gathering, the, I like it on days that are not too hot, but I don't really like seeing thick, blackish-gray clouds that gather so much because it's a sign that it's going to rain where I'm passing.

"Bright…! looks like it's gonna rain, I'd better land first."

The weather was getting darker with the change in temperature in the air, I could feel the cold very clearly and therefore I then decided to land under the shady trees, which was very clear, I don't want to force you to fly if it rains.

"Little mistress yeah.it won't wet my dress anyway, but maybe it's good to just go home…"

DUARR!!!

"Eh! that…! can't anyone fight?!" I said back to flying.

Right after I landed, the water droplets began to fall with a clear amount that could not be counted, but because it was only as big as the morning dew grains, he said, the water droplets were so felt on my skin and all I could feel was the coldness of the wind blowing as I stretched out my hand to catch the water droplets.

"That's a big snake, but what is he fighting?" confused say.

...

"Ughh! it's cold! I shouldn't be too tall."

Monitor the situation from every angle of my view carefully to find the origin of the startling explosion sound, I was quite surprised when I saw the head of the towering snake with a very large size even higher than the trees around it.

The big snake seemed to stare at something under it with a distinctive tongue of a snake that sticks out once in a while and a gaze that looks very terrible – yes I am not afraid anyway – and out of curiosity I immediately flew closer to the snake by being directly above it among the dark clouds, and I began to regret this action of mine as it got closer to the rain clouds, the wetter and colder my body is.

"Hm... The snake stared at... eh? how awful! they're in danger! b-but. i-it's big, argh! who cares about its size, I'm much bigger than you snake!"

…

"Yeah!!"

Duarr!!

"Curtain! turns out he's pretty tough! y'all..are you okay…"

DUARR!!

"Aghhh!!! I told you, I'm a lot bigger than you, you fucking snake!''

Groahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Bruk!

"Now my chance!" I said as I ran over the snake's body.

Noticing the direction of the giant snake's gaze, I was very surprised because it turned out that he was going to prey on a group of adventurers who had been injured, he said, actually I hesitated to help them because the size of the snake was very unreasonable with a diameter of about 3-4 meters and a length that was difficult for me to estimate, even a Titanoboa-class snake is nothing compared to this spiny cobra, especially now that I am in my human form that he can have in just one bite.

But, imagining such a thing there will be no result because it is precisely I who can swallow it whole –not in human form–, he said, and because it was in a desperate state I then immediately slid and landed a kick to the back of the snake's head before I finally landed right in front of all the adventurers.

But, despite receiving a pretty hard kick from me, in fact the snake can still rise as if nothing happened and even my ankles feel a bit sore after kicking it, and when I wanted to ascertain the state of the adventurers, suddenly the fluttering of a snake tail that was large enough to point quickly towards me, but because I was quite close to the five adventurers, but because I was quite close to the five adventurers, I couldn't do much to deal with the attack.

If I dodge then the people behind me will be hit by the attack and if I do an equally powerful attack they will definitely still be exposed to the effects of the attack, I don't really like things that stink of violence because it's not a job for an adorable pretty girl.

But, because I was desperate and had no other choice, I immediately stomped my feet and caught the snake's tail swing to stop it, and with all my might wearing this little body I lifted it up and stomped it hard, without wasting any chance of the snake's negligence I then continued my attack by walking on his body then leaping high before finally landing a single kick in the same place as my previous attack and ending with fading growling sound.

"Hahh, this snake is quite troublesome" I said as I jumped down.

Looks like this snake is still alive, yahh.

I walked over the body of the monster snake from its head all the way to its tail then jumped down right in front of the people before, but before I came to them I first made sure that the snake monster was dead or not and it turned out that he was not dead, yes he did have a hard skin and that was enough to reduce the damage from my attack.

Even so I was in a state of not wanting to kill him because killing meant eating his bountiful flesh and for the time being I did not want to eat meat. So, I let him stay alive.

"So, how's things going…"

"Don't come any closer!!! don't come any closer, don't come any closer." shouted one of the men from the adventurer group.

"I-I didn't mean to…"

"Don't come near!! I said don't come any closer. You're a terrible demon! stay away from the damned demon princess…!"

"Lt!" my screams held my wounded arm.

""Yeah!!""

Turning to look at the adventurers to ask about their situation, just a few words I said one of the men with a tense expression shouted loudly in a sitting position like someone who had been surrounded by something, aiming at the tip of his sword with trembling hands and body just like his comrades.

Their faces all looked very frightened when they saw me, but I didn't want this misunderstanding to continue without any resolution, I tried to get closer to correcting this misunderstanding and explained that I did not intend to scare them, but the man shouted back and desperately threw his sword at me.

I did not avoid that sword throw and just held it down which ended with a wound on my right hand, my blood flowing from my open wound, I liked the princess said on the first word of her speech, but I didn't like the word devil in the second word, they all screamed and ran as I focused on covering my bleeding wounds.

"Lady.gu...a..ku…"

Not a bad guy...

Tick. tick…

…

"Hiks hiks... Why again like this? hyx! OHHHHH!!!"

I wanted to reach out to them, but I couldn't move and just stayed in place without being able to say much, in the end I could only accept the cold rain falling down rapidly while slowly falling on the muddy ground crying loudly lamenting the same thing that always repeated –I can no longer.
