Dragon’s Trait and Goblin’s Instinct

Late at night in the Deep Forest.

Fighting at night in the forest has many disadvantages for heroes, so it’s naturally become that they fight during the day.

However, today there is a group that has remained within the forest even though it’s late at night.
Using perception magic, there are around 50 heroes gathered that are not moving.

What is this.

“Ryu! You were here”

“Come here for a bit”
“W-wait, don’t pull my head uwaagh!”

My head was seized by Terry who suddenly appeared and began walking quickly.

I allowed myself to be pulled along by Terry.

“It’s a major incident, help me out Ryu”
“What’s difficult……uoh!”

I who let myself be dragged along by Terry finally arrived at a group of goblins.

If you look left, there’s goblins. If you look right, there’s goblins.
A big group of golblingoblingoblin.

“What’s up with this”

“With only goblins”

“Why in the world”

“Yea, it seems like there are”

“A queen?”

When I mutter, my words attract the attention of the goblins as they all simultaneously look at me.
At night in the middle of the forest with countless s.h.i.+ning eyes of goblins glaring at me……to be honest, it’s a little scary.

What’s scary isn’t just that, the goblins have started some mysterious ceremony.

A dance that can certainly only be called a ceremony.

“W-what’s going on with everyone”

“……ahh”

I finally understand the situation.
One trait of goblins, they feel tremendous fascination with human girls, especially those “who have not been defiled” or “n.o.ble”.

Even now there is a queen among the heroes, will you attack that queen in a s.e.xual meaning?

“I understand the situation, but why did you get me?”

“Well yea……you know”

Investigating as much as possible with perception magic, the heroes who are here now have been in the same place since around evening.
From the flow of magic, they aren’t doing anything, they’re just there.

The monsters of Deep Forest don’t usually start attacking as long the heroes don’t come attacking.
For heroes that haven’t moved for around half a day, if you leave them as is and let them go back, it’ll end with that.

There are proper reasons for situations like this.
This time as well-probably.

I stealthily used magic, directional sound collection magic, magic to eavesdrop on a designated location.

[It looks like we’ll get receive daybreak with nothing happening]

[I understand, whatever kind of monster comes, even a dragon, we’ll drive them away]

The human’s conversation I overheard was more or less as I expected.

This time it’s that. When I heard there was a queen I guessed the unmoving heroes came to gain the queen prestige.
And I was right on the money.

“Hey Ryu, cooperate with me”

“Ehh why”
“It’s bothersome, I don’t think anything of the Queen after all”

I’m not a goblin.

No matter a queen, princess knight, or elf priestess, I don’t have any particular interest.

“Che, it’s fine already. See ya”

While sulking Terry bid farewell to me.
The goblins who went to the mysterious ceremony also stopped and departed in groups.

Well, it’s within the forest, and the opponent are heroes who have trying to gain prestige as a goal.
Even at worst it will only be annihilation with the promise of resurrection, so I thought to leave the matter of the goblins as is.

“Cooperate with them”

“Properly cooperate with them”
“Haa?”

My stepsister,the Dragon Yui, suddenly appears, directs her stare at me and said as such.

“Why, isn’t it fine”

“Uu, b-but isn’t it fine not to do it? If it’s those kinds of heroes, they won’t attack all the way to Kaa-san’s place right. Then-”
“A message from Kaa-san”

“‘I am sleepy, when I have to resurrect enough to the point that my sleep is disturbed then at that time'”
“t-that time……?”

*Gulp* I swallow my saliva as I hear the tone of my own voice.

“‘I’ll scold you as much as I revive'”
“That’s not a laughing matter!!!”

The goblins who advanced just now easily crossed 100, a great march of 100 goblins.

There’s no way the heroes who came along in order to gain the queen prestige would be weak, and 100 goblins combined are still only goblins.

……in other words, when morning comes I’ll be scolded 100 times huh.

I don’t want that, don’t want is not the word for it.

“It’s like that so. I conveyed it ok”

Yui said so and turned aside so as to leave.

“Waitwaitwait”

“I understand the situation, so cooperate with me please”
“No way. Didn’t you listen? I’m sleepy”

Eei are all dragons lazys!

“I don’t want to hear that from Onii-chan only”

“Something like demanding your little sister’s scale……Onii-chan on top of being a lazy person, you’re a hentai”
“Take back that last one!”

Yui looks at me for a while, then let’s out a sigh with a dear me.

“There’s no helping it, if I don’t give it to you, it seems Kaa-san will get angry”

“Wait a moment……”

Yui says that and put her hand inside her skirt.

“N……fuu……”

She gropes about making rustling sounds, and after her face flushes she takes her hand out from her skirt.

It’s always a wonder why she takes it out from such a place while in her human form.

“Here, don’t use it for strange purposes”
“Like I would idiot!”

I throw the dragon scale I receive from Yui into my mouth.
I take the dragon scale into my slime body and process both my flesh and magic power.

When I do, suddenly a transformation occurs.
A change occurs in my jelly form body’s flesh, and in a flash I transform into a the figure of a dragon.

A huge, a body that protrudes out of the forest dragon figure. The figure of Yui’s dragon form.

A kind of transformation magic, by taking in a portion of the target’s body, it’s possible to transform into the target’s figure.

Incidentally, the transformation is the appearance only, it’s not capable of copying even abilities.
If I transform into Terry……oegh.

*Cough*

It’s only the outward appearance to the end.

Even so why did I transform, that’s because I’m Kaa-san’s son.

I’m a slime, but I was born in a dragon’s nest. The effect of Mother Dragon working me hard for many years is that I acquired a dragon’s abilities in general.
In other words this means that in this moment, I have, in appearance and in content, become a dragon.

“Dear me, well then I’m off”
“Un, do your best”

Yui sends me off, and in the body of a dragon I head towards the direction of where the heroes are.

I pa.s.s the goblins on my way.
All their eyes are glaring, some number f them are already imagining about after the queen is captured.

I pa.s.sed those goblins and finally arrived at the heroes location.
The tent is casually set up, becoming a small campground.

“M-monsters have come to attack-”

The hero on night watch spotted me, but I crushed him with my forefoot.

“D-dragon!?”
“No way, it really came!”

There’s a single voice I remember hearing.

The blazing flames burned the heroes from there equipment into nothing.

I killed the heroes who came attacking all at once one after another.

They strong to the point that, individually, they could each breakthrough the weakest eastern forest.

I’m at a loss with that kind of opponent, but I’ll be scolded by mother when damage goes out to the goblins, so I used all my power to rout them.

“Her Majesty the Queen, escape at once”

“Please hurry!”

In the tent in the furthest place there were those kinds of shadowy figures. I saw the figure of a hero that was trying to let her escape.

The queen was young, a young girl of about 12-3 years of age.

So I understand very well why they came……but.

I stick a magic barrier on the queen, and breathe out flames in her surroundings.
Other than the queen who was protected by the barrier, her hero followers were burnt to nothing.

I don’t let the queen escape, Kaa-san didn’t order me to, but if the queen escapes the goblins will pursue her and it’ll become a nuisance.
That’s why, I don’t let her escape.

I leave aside the queen who sunk to the floor, and I obliterated the reaming heroes.
The heroes were tough opponents, but I somehow annihilated them leaving behind the queen before the goblins arrived and took off from that place.

[Hyahaa! Heroes give us the queen-are?]

[Why aren’t the heroes not here?]
The goblins that are late to the scene are bewildered.

[More importantly, that’s the queen isn’t it]

[I understand, that queen is a virgin]
[[[Hyahaa! A fresh queen]]]

They’re stimulated by the queen left behind, not a single one of them thought about the situation deeply.
Good grief, like this it’ll end without me being scolded.
