I Was Reincarnated As A Dragon
Chapter 168: POV Sira; The Deal.

Every day when Miss Shea falls asleep under the influence of Frenya's treatment, I always go to the labyrinth to challenge Ardner to stop making Miss Shea suffer, but defeating a true dragon race like him was impossible for me, I was repeatedly defeated by him and today I was again defeated by him.

Even so, somehow the situation even turned into a coyole with the arrival of Frenya and the water spirit that was always with him, he said, but in contrast to Frenya who looked annoying water spirit it just looks more sane and instead he might be confused by this situation.

"Yes..then I will be the mediator and the rules are very simple. 'anyone who loses will grant one thing from the winning side without any rejection', now what do you want?" frenya said with a smile.

What the fuck...? but.let's.

"I don't want this stiff guy to bother Miss Shea all his life" I said, staring at Ardner.

It's really surprising, maybe that's what I can think of after seeing this situation and somehow Ardner and I actually got into the game of Frenya, but because it's from Frenya, I feel like I have a chance to win it even more judging from Miss Shea's personality, she is very unlikely to be affected by Ardner.

And although this would only be a joke to Frenya it was possible that he had planned something behind this action, and whatever he's up to at least I'll follow him for a while and hope that Ardner's dragon won't bother Miss Shea during the game.

"Owh! interesting, then what about you?" ask Frenya.

"I'll get all those teeth."

"" ...? ""

Everything was immediately silent when he heard Ardner saying his wish if he managed to win the game Frenya, his words were very astounding to me because it reminded me of the days where I had bet with him and repeatedly always won by him, he said, this dragon had a very high level of luck and so I lost 28 of my teeth in that moment.

"Your request is too simple..but, if Sira is toothless..hm~ it seems that she will look quite attractive" said Frenya smilingly looking at me.

"Woi! are you two out of your mind!"

I felt a creepy atmosphere along with a look that immediately gave me goosebumps, the two people seemed to agree to drop me in this fight of belief, moreover Frenya looked more gripping than usual.

"Ehe-hehehe... Frenya, do you seriously want to make a game like this?" ask the water spirit beside Frenya.

"All right, everything's agreed. Let's start."

"He didn't hear me" he said again with a sigh.

Frenya is indeed very troublesome not only for us, but also for his own friend, I feel sorry for this one spirit because he seems very difficult to take care of Frenya who sometimes does not care about the surrounding.

"Just like you're talking, he's obsessed" I told him.

"Yes, it seems so" he said with a smile with a resigned face.

That listless and resigned smile greatly illustrated how difficult she was to deal with Frenya's attitude. Meanwhile, Frenya also looks elongated smile that sometimes makes me very disturbed.

"Before this game really starts, I'll say a little bit of advice that will probably make it easier for you.../"

"I don't need any advice from you, goodbye" Ardner said, cutting off Frenya's words.

"I'm not a good fortune teller, but I can see the winner of this game from the way you started it. You Ardner, you wouldn't have a chance to win it if you kept your distance from the girl... whoever is closest to him is the one who will be the winner."

I don't really understand Frenya's way of thinking, but he does have a good observation in everything including this game, he must have been able to guess what was going to happen in the future very accurately.

Frenya may have created this game to get his personal pleasure, but I'm pretty sure he has a hidden purpose, even more so he's kind of directing us on the path he's making especially for Ardner.

"Ahh~! I almost forgot, if you lose maybe we'll take your place as the master of the lower labyrinth."

" ... "

"I will consider" said Ardner as he left us.

Although it initially seemed unconcerned, but after hearing Frenya's words, Ardner's countenance seemed to turn very serious before he actually left this place.

I can understand that, after all who would accept if his hard-earned position and title suddenly disappeared because of one simple game, he said, but that is the consequence if doing this game, especially the game from Frenya.

"What exactly are you planning?" I asked Frenya.

"No, I just don't like him. I could have killed Ardner, but that would have caused new problems."

"You hate him so much."

Although there was a smile on her face, but her aura was different from usual and it was very scary, I rarely saw her offended or angry even almost never at all. But I think Ardner was lucky enough that he didn't have to see his anger.

"Ardner underestimated the boy too much, he was the one who had to see the truth."

"Yes. I think so."

Turns out he could be this good...

It was quite surprising to me that Frenya could be angry for defending others, but judging from his actions all along Frenya already had an interest in Miss Shea even though I did not expect it to be this far.

"Frenya don't you have a prophecy for me?"

"Owh~! have you lost your confidence to the point of hoping for something uncertain?"

"I just asked."

I'm pulling my words.

The look on Frenya's mocking face was so annoying, I hated it even after seeing her talk like it made me change my mind about her good nature.

He gave Ardner advice willingly, but when I asked for a bit of divination he mocked me, what an injustice in this game.

"Hah-hahaha.h-hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh."

"Take me?"

"Oh~! right too, hehehehe... Sira, you'd better help the boy, he's again acting recklessly with his strength." said Frenya, sighing.

"Ah.. This is critical, before that miss has suffered so much now will definitely be doubled."

Although still in a shitty state, I immediately dispelled all my frustration and focused on the state of Miss Shea told by Frenya, I should have gone with Miss Shea instead of fighting Ardner in the labyrinth.

Miss Shea has always been reckless with her powers as long as I'm not around, I know that because Miss Shea did target her while going alone, because if I go with me maybe I'll forbid him from doing that reckless thing, I felt that miss would be fine since she had just recovered and was unlikely to use her strength for quite a long period of time, but it turned out to be beyond my expectations.

I don't mind Miss Shea's kind nature because it's good for her, but it's Ardner's chain that worries me, the chain of curses that are made to add pain to the person concerned, if the lady had almost gone mad by banging her head over and over again then what would happen now to her?

"No need to worry, as long as he hits the ground it should be the kid's going to be a little better."

"Hahh, yes, thank you for helping him.../"

"It's too early to thank you, you'd better be quick to help him before the boy actually cries beside the lake."

Although still worried about the situation of Miss Shea, but after hearing her words that relieved Frenya I feel calmer, although not immediately healed miss at least I was greatly helped by first aid from Frenya.

"Thank you aa...?"

"Call Lolovi" he said with a smile.

This one spirit was indeed very different from Frenya, his smile looked much more sincere than the goddamn green one that was always full of hidden intentions, he said, I was very grateful to her for helping me heal and even though it was a little late for the introduction, but I finally knew her name.

"Yes, thank you, Lolovi."

"Sama-sama" she replied while smiling again.

"Alright, I'll send you right to his place" Frenya told me.

...

"Hiks hyks... hurts!"

After my injuries were healed, Frenya then used teleportation magic to send me to the place where Miss Shea was on the edge of the lake, and the only thing I heard upon arriving at the lake was the small sound of Miss Shea's crying.

"Miss?"

"Sira..."

"What's the matter, miss?"

"Hey Sira... Do you think I'm stupid?"

" ... "

Miss Shea was tightly embracing her legs with a red face and full of tears, I could barely say anything when I saw that fragile face, this child is so strong, she said, but also weak in terms of his feelings and all I can do is help by supporting him as much as I can, and give him the answers he needs so he doesn't feel burdened.

"You're just being yourself, miss, there aren't many people out there who care about other people's circumstances, I think what you're doing is a good thing, it's just that you shouldn't overdo it to the point of forgetting your own circumstances."

"That's it.." he said with a lethargic smile.

"Can you help me stand up?"

"Sure, miss."

I sat down beside Miss Shea, staring at the same lake while giving an answer to her question, even though I was not so sure of what I said, but after that Miss Shea's face looks much better even though it is still quite difficult to smile cheerfully as usual.

After feeling quite calm Miss Shea then stood up while holding on to me and I also helped her walk along the forest road until entering the cave until arriving in front of the stairs of her wall house.

"Thank you Sira, from here on out I can walk on my own."

"You sure?"

"Yes, it's okay."

"All right."

After Ms. Shea stopped holding onto me, I then lay down on the stairs to take a short nap while the lady walked up the stairs to her room, everything went smoothly and I was able to sleep for at least a while.

Bruck...

"Hm... What is it? ah. it turns out that..."

It's hard to believe, I can barely even digest this state, miss's body is still weak, but I didn't expect it to be difficult for her to go down the stairs when it was so simple, though, she only needed to step her legs one by one as slowly as when she rode her, but it seemed that Miss Shea could not do so judging from her current expression.

"Hiks... Sira. I can't go down..."

"Y-yeah.wait, miss. let me help you."

.

.

.

"Thank you, Sira."

"Yes, just call me later if you're done."

"I-yes sure."

After seeing the difficulty of Miss Shea, I then helped her walk down the stairs to get to the front door of the room which was actually a wall hole in the kitchen that Miss Shea deliberately made to enter the bath, and after delivering the lady there I then lay down on the table to wait if the lady again needs my help.

…

" … "

"Eh! miss?!"

Long enough I lay closed my eyes, suddenly Miss Shea came out of the bath in a hurry and a panicked face holding onto something, but it was no more surprising than the state of the lady who looked very fit different from before, Miss Shea could run without falling even a little while before she seemed difficult to walk.

Tok tok...

"Who's visiting this place?" I said as I walked into the living room.

Not long after Miss Shea went to her room, I was quite confused by the sound of knocking on the door, because this place is very remote and only a few people know it is very unlikely there are guests who come or people who accidentally knock on the door of this wall house.

"Wait a minute! eh?! wait up?!"

Walking out to the main door, I passed Miss Shea who also came down from the second floor with a confused look on her face.

"Sira, you just got out of here?" ask Miss Shea while going down the stairs.

"Yes, that's it, miss."

Hm... miss looks fine, has her condition improved? uh! where's the chain?!

Miss Shea's face really looks confused when she sees me, as well as me who is confused by the current state of Miss Shea, especially regarding the Ardner chain that has disappeared from her neck, after seeing that I instantly activated my magic to find out who the uninvited guest was and it was true that the aura I felt really belonged to the dragon Ardner.

Is he here because of his chains!? I won't let it!

When Ms. Shea and I arrived at the main door, Ardner's aura became clearer, but I felt no threat from her, even so, I remain vigilant to block him if at any time he intends to attack Miss Shea.

"S-welcome..." said Ms. Shea as she slowly opened the door.
