Chapter 385 The Delinquent Students, the Teacher, and the Parent

The seventh island has been conquered. The forces were concentrated on the beach, so once they overcame the climax, it automatically became like that. The sea and the sky were also the same, thanks to the efforts of Hund-kun and Touko. The sea is covered with floating dragons, and the land is covered with fainted dragons. It is a disastrous post-war scene, but it is surprising that no one died. I am very happy to see the growth of the disciples.

「It is pathetic to see you fall down, Yuba! You could give your all, but you lost!」

「Shut up, you idiot! You bastard lost in a comical way. Also, why the hell did you nonchalantly come to the seventh island? Have you no sense of shame?」

「I lost while still having a lot of remaining power, so I still can do it! That’s why there’s nothing to be ashamed of! If I become a dragon and do my best, I might be able to win!」

「I don’t understand how much you have to shrink your brain to come up with such a shallow idea. You were lucky, you know? If it were a real battle, you would have been dead without even showing your real strength.」

「You picking a fight!?」

「Haah?」

「「「「………」」」」

So, what are we being shown now? After conquering the seventh island, a huge dragon flew from the sixth island and suddenly started to quarrel with the general of this island. The contents are worthless, and they keep quarreling endlessly. It’s a good thing that their subordinates fainted, but it’s not something that someone who stands above should do.

*Whisper* (Shishō, what should we do?)

*Whisper* (To be honest, I’d rather just ignore them and move one, but… you see, Hund-kun is trying to arbitrate for some reason.)」

「Stop it, you fools! Good adults shouldn’t do that in front of women and children!」

「Haah, it has nothing to do with you, blue old man! This is between me and Yuba――」

「――Even so, it’s the right thing to do to correct the mistake! Now, sit there!」

「No. I mean, I can’t even stand up.」

「Bfft, you can’t even stand! I can stand, you know? I can stand!」

「Hm? I feel like I heard a pig squalling from somewhere. Ah, it was Zuha’s voice, huh? They sound alike, so I misheard it.」

「Don’t underestimate a pig!」

「Listen to me!」

Hund-kun joined the dragons’ quarrel, and the situation became even more chaotic. How should I put it… it’s like a quarrel between delinquent students, and a teacher is trying to stop it.

「…… *Smiles*

Ah, this is bad. Nell is starting to smile more and more. This is two steps away from exploding, and it’s better to deal with it now. Otherwise, this beach will turn into a scorching hot beach.

「Now, now~. What are you doing in front of our guests~?」

「Geh!?」

「T-That voice is….」

A woman’s voice and the sound of flapping wings came from above. The dragons, who weren’t stopping at all until a while ago, are now completely stopped. Their reaction speed is not something that can be achieved unless they’ve been scolded considerably.

「I’m sorry that my son and daughter have caused a lot of trouble.」

「It was heartwarming to see from above….」

「Satella-san and Wee-chan!」

Well, everyone is scared of their mother. The beautiful green dragon Satella and Weerel, riding on her back, descended to the beach. The noisy chief guardians are terribly frightened, even though nothing has been done to them yet. Yeah, this is definite evidence that they have been scolded considerably.

「M-Mother, you see…」

「You there, I will hear what each of you have to say later, but for now, just keep your mouth shut, okay? We’re in the middle of the trial after all ♪」

「「Yes…」」

「Good ♪」

I’m not sure if I should be happy with this. Well, I’m grateful that she silenced the dragons, but the fact that Satella went out of her way to show up here means that she probably going to participate in the trial. If possible, I would like to avoid fighting Satella who’s as strong as Lily. If that happens, there is no way they can do it safely, and even if they win, you wouldn’t be able to afford to climb the mountain.

「Don’t worry, Deris-san. I entrusted the children as the guardians of the trial, but I have no intention of getting involved any further. Ah, I’m at work, so I will use honorifics, okay?」

「Well, you can do as you please about that.」

…… It seems that she read my mind. Haru clearly looked disappointed, but I’m relieved to hear it.

「The reason I’m here is to make my husband’s trial go smoothly. I knew that if Zuha and Yuba lost, they would start quarreling no matter what the details were. Deris-san as you already know, all the forces on the seventh island have already been destroyed. Therefore, it would only be a hassle to cross the seventh island from now on. It’s a waste of time because it will only serve as a harsh running course.」

「A harsh running course…!」

「Haruna, restrain yourself.」

「Err, in other words?」

「In other words, I’m thinking of taking you to the eighth island. Hund-san has defeated the children in the sea, so you don’t have to bother to cross the sea. I will take you all to the eighth island.」

Oh, this is an unexpected development. It seems that she’s going to eliminate the most troublesome part, the travel time. She’s so kind that someone like me can’t help but wonder if there’s more to it than meets the eye.

「Ah, then, I and Nell will wait for you here. You should go to the eighth islands on yourselves.」

「EEEEEEHHHHH!?」

「Chinatsu-chan!?」

Chinatsu screamed in grief. Forgive me, Goddess Chinatsu. This is a trial to show your power to Rimudo. Also, I don’t want to do something tiring such as climbing a mountain.

「Oh, that’s surprising. I thought you would be more protective. Do I have to stay too?」

「Well, I’ve got a lot on my mind.」

「I-Is that so? Well, if Deris says so, it can’t be helped. Yes, it can’t be helped!」

Nell, why are you blushing there? I’m sure you’re thinking something different.

「Satella-san, is that okay?」

「I don’t mind. Ah, of course, I won’t kidnap――invite them anymore, so you don’t have to worry.」

「Haha, I’m suddenly worried about leaving our disciples with you.」

At that time, I’ll use your children to negotiate.

「U-Um, Deris-san? Are we really going by ourselves? Are you serious…?」

「What, are you scared, Chinatsu? I’m rather motivated that Danna trusts me, you know?」

「Me too! Me too!」

Touko is motivated and Haru is jumping around. On the other hand, Chinatsu looks pale. Yeah, I’m worried.

「We are up against the Great Eight Demons, who’s three ranks higher than Lily-san, you know? I’m worried, and it would be strange if I weren’t scared. Uhh, I wonder if we’ll make it back alive…」

「Now, now. Calm down, Chinatsu. If something happens, we’ll do something about it. From here, maybe we will make it in time. Maybe.」

「…… Why did you say 『maybe』 twice?」

Because it’s important, of course.

「By the way, Hund-san, I was very impressed when you were scolding them. Would you like to become a tutor at our home? I promise you exceptional treatment. I feel that you have the qualities to be an advisor. Live-in is also possible, you know?」

「No, I don’t know what to say if you suddenly tell me that…. Also, did you change your tone again? For some reason, a blonde drill comes to my mind….」

「I’m in a capable mother mode.」

(TLn: She talks like a noble lady)

When I was talking to Chinatsu and the others, Satella was shrewdly trying to invite Hund-kun. As expected of you, Hund-kun. You have been appointed as an advisor of the Baha Family. Congratulations. It will be difficult, but congratulations anyway.
