Dragon’s Bloodline

When Serge was voluntarily disciplining himself due to raising such a fuss, in truth, he was meeting with a certain individual during that time.

Who was this individual? The greatest mage on the continent, the man given the title Great SageAzelford.

Reaching an elevation of ten kilometers, Serge had been invited to a certain garden on the summit of the Sacred Mountain Cyrus.

By the way, to say how he got there

Thats a big bird

A huge brown bird with somewhere around a hundred meters long wingspan landed in a field on the outskirts. Its head resembled a pterodactyls.

It is one of the three servants who serve Azelford-sama, the Wondrous Bird Laplace.

The person to answer Serge had come together with Laplace, a black-haired butler.

Even so Laplace

That has nothing to do with the laplace devil, right?

I am also one of the servants, Radam.

Nn?

Umm, is the last of you three named Poseidon by some chance?

Yes, they are names given based on a legend from a Hero-samas world.

Thats the world of BaXXruni[1]

They headed to the top of Cyrus like that, but what was there was a place built like an outdoor stage in an area covered flowers, neither of which youd expect to see that high up.

The lord is waiting over there.

Moving forward said, they went over to the stage seating.

Serge already had a bad feeling about this.

then it happened.

Cha~ chara cha cha~ cha cha~ cha cha~ cha~ cha~

A beautiful youth with fair skin appeared together with music.

The youth was singing enthusiastically.

Hidden by~ the~ fresh fallen~ snow~[2]

The lyrics were wrong, but with that line, it was definitelythatsong.

Living in~ the magic tower~, super powered, sage~ Azelfoooooord~

He knew. He knew the song.

Hed watched it on Animax or something, so he knew.[3]

He knew it from that line.

To protect the continents peace, three servants were ordered.

YAH!

His expectations had already vanished.

Wondrous Bird Laplace~, soar through the skies~ Poseidon~, swim through the seas~ Radam~, transform, dont give up~

Thats a parody!

After singing it properly on the second time, Azelford greeted him with a big smile.

I am Azelford. I dont mind if you call me Azel.

Maybe its not the first generation Azel?[4]

Shaking hands with him and smiling awkwardly, Serge decided to forget about what just happened.

Using space-time magic, thats pretty interesting. Youre a reincarnator right?

As expected of someone called the great sage, you put it together just from that huh.

Even as fellow reincarnators, I am different from Labyrinth. Having chosen genesis magic, that ones had to work quite hard.

Ah, I see. They lived in the same era so its natural that hed know about Labyrinth.

Right theyre from the same era.

It looks like you made it through the labyrinth, but hows she doing? Well?

He guided me from the stage towards the tower. It seems to be his residence.

She was energetic, but, how should I say this It felt like it was all a bravado.

Shes been like that for a long time. Everything considered, its amazing that her spirit hasnt worn away

There were various lab instruments and books placed everywhere inside the tower.

The thing Serge took an immediate interest in was the mountain of books. They were piled into a huge mound without being properly sorted.

For Serge, someone who made sure to maintain a properly organized collection of books in his former life, it was a sight he couldnt endure for long.

Sorry. With it being so hard to organize, even if I asked someone else to help out with it, the people who are able to come here havent been too capable at organizing.

Serge had come to the place of the man called the great sage because of Azels invitation.

Being the only one to destroy the crystal ball since the Dragonslayer had that much of an impact.

Please, take a spot thats open. Radam, prepare some tea and sweets.

As he said that, he took a seat on a sofa. As though waiting for it, the pile of books collapsed.

I would have arranged things a bit more usually, but recently Ive been too busy with preparing for the Millennium.

It was brought up. The Millennium.

The person who was the top of the magic academy. What did he think of the Millennium?

Serge spoke frankly, saying that everyone felt too little of a sense of crisis when it came to things regarding the Millennium.

Its as you say. We are much lacking in that. Perhaps the human race will be soundly defeated in this next Millennium.

Serge froze from the mans frank pessimism.

Ah, dont be too troubled about it. Thisll be between you and me, but in truth, I recently fought against the Demon King.

Eh?

Isnt that something that should be top secret?

Im just a mere student though

Even though I prepared enough for it to be a complete victory, it ended in a draw. Really though it was like I lost. We might have to drag out Kuoh from Oomori Woods as well as mobilize your queen and that dragonslayer even so, it might not be enough.

The human races loss was certain?

Our defeat in this Millennium was practically decided the moment Clarice disappeared.

Serge nearly dropped the cup in his hands after hearing Azel say that in a carefree manner.

Then isnt it going to be super bad?

Bad things are bad, but its just that the structure of human society will change. That Demon King-san was originally a human, I dont think hed drive mankind to extinction.

H-huh?

Wasnt the Millennium supposed to be a huge invasion of human territory by the demon tribe?

Ah, you didnt hear?

Azel continued speaking after wetting his lips with some of the tea in his hand, speaking simply.

The past two Millenniums were caused by a massive overcrowding of the demon tribes population. This time, however, is different.

It wasnt hard for ogres, beastkin, or even other demi-humans to distribute and live with humans.

Even though practically all of human territory was on the southern side of the continent, the Demon King was aiming for a total racial mixing.

Ah, I see.

Serge understood.

As a hero that came from Earth, moreover as a Japanese citizen, it was possible hed try it as the Demon King.

Even when they were overthrowing Cordova, he sent Asuka and the rest to help out to support them, so it was convincing.

And in truth, it was an answer that Serge himself preferred.

Umm, isnt that not such a bad thing? That is of course if people could actually live in peace I mean.

Its good. If youre only thinking about the Millennium, that is. However, then theres

Just as he was about to say something, Azel stopped speaking.

Youre an Ogress aristocrat, but what does your queen think about joining hands with the demon tribe?

Itll work out maybe. She has a bit of a personal grudge, but she is a person that became the ogre queen after all.

That so? I give up What kind of personal grudge?

He didnt know?

You probably know about how our Joou-sama and Carla-san are all lovey-dovey

Ah, right. I dont know too much about it, but even though both of their bodys are mainly female, they married.

I see, so the great sage already know about that huh.

Then, well, one of the Demon Kings subordinates went to kill Carla-san, but that just caused our Joou-san to flip and and wreck him.

After hearing that, one would probably think relations between the two sides would break down.

However, even though Ria defeated Cordova, if one knew just how much help she had from the demon tribe, it wouldnt be weird if it was taken that her killing the offender worked as a reconciliation.

And from what he heard after that, it seemed like she didnt just feel like killing them.

Well, theres still a bit more time. For now, how about I entice you, the queens confidant?

He sounded like he was joking, but his eyes were completely serious.

Ill give you the right to enter this tower. However, the third floor and up are dangerous, so dont enter them. The laboratory equipment is dangerous as well.

A single floor was still wider than a full library, and he could use it freely.

As a mage, these conditions were still something to covet.

The ways to get here are to call for Laplace, or once you are able to teleport, by using the inner teleportation magic formation. Do you have any questions?

Umm, why are you doing so much for me?

To strengthen our war potential. Even if the Demon King overcomes the Millennium as hes intending well, at any rate, I pray we have even a single extra powerful warrior or mage.

And he was back to being evasive.

Radam knows whats where, so ask him if you need.

Oh well. Either way, Serges purpose here was to strengthen himself.

No matter how the process went, that was his one goal.

And thus, Serge was blessed with the most advanced magical education on this continent.

What embarrassed him was that the person teaching him would sometimes jovially break out into anime songs though.

Fortunately, Azel wasnt tone-deaf.
