Chapter 1 I Beca Acquainted with a Blonde Young Lady
Leticia di teor.
When I t her in the forest at midnight, she told that she herself was a great calamity dragon.
In other words, she is the sa kind of dragon that attacked Surier.
Is this really true?
As if to answer my question, [Full Assist] tells in my mind.
I will report on the progress of the analysis.
Leticia di teors body is that of a human race, but it is presud that she carries the soul of the great calamity, the Bright and Arrogant Dragon.
I see.
To put it very roughly, she is a calamity in human skin.
She looks like a beautiful woman, but inside she is a calamity In my forr world, there is a saying, A pretty rose has its thorns, but she has so rather dangerous thorns.
Fufu, I hope I didnt startle you.
Leticia whispered in my ear with a mischievous look on her face.
I, for my part, have no intention of antagonizing you. I will not attack the city or its people like other calamities. You can rest assured of that.
What do you an?
The mission of the calamity is to destroy this world. But whether or not I follow it is another matter, isnt it? Im seventeen this year and a little late in my rebellion phase.
Does this an that she does not intend to engage in destructive activities like the Black Dragon and the Gluttonous Dragon?
Of course, there is the possibility that this is an act to catch off guard but now, how do I judge it?
Well, it is inevitable that you will be suspicious of .
Leticia said as if she had guessed what I was thinking.
I have already lied about being attacked by the White Scorpion and fainted, so I guess I deserved it. Please allow to apologize for that.
Can I ask you to tell why you lied?
Its that simple. If I told you that I was a calamity when we first t, you might misunderstand as a crazy person, wouldnt you agree?
That may be true.
Leticias point was clear enough for .
I have been transferred from modern Japan to this world, but I dont reveal it to others, saying that I have been living deep in the remote mountainous area.
I dont know if people would believe if I said I ca from a different world, and in fact, there is a high possibility that they would question my sanity.
In that sense, Leticia and I may have a similar thought process.
Then why did you decide to reveal yourself?
Its a bit vague, though.
Leticia told hesitantly.
I had a feeling that I had t Kou-sama sowhere in the distant past.
I thought we had never t before.
While answering that, I was still feeling a little strange.
I had a strange feeling that I had exchanged words with Leticia before.
This is what is known as deja vu.
I would like to say it was just an illusion, but this kind of thing can be considered foreshadowing in ani and manga.
In the anti, it might be a good idea to keep this in mind.
When the conversation ca to a close, Leticia explained the circumstances leading up to her passing out in the woods.
As I ntioned earlier, there have been a series of sightings of large monsters in this vicinity. I was visiting the forest to investigate.
In the forest, she found a White Scorpion and decided to challenge it to a fight.
The White Scorpion is a ferocious monster. If left unchecked, it could cause damage to neighboring towns and villages. Shouldnt we nip trouble in the bud as soon as possible?
I certainly agree.
As for , I dont disagree with Leticias opinion. In fact, Im all for it.
Early resolution of problems has been my policy since the days when I was busy dealing with the flas in Japan.
Its just
Taking on White Scorpion by yourself was a bit reckless, wasnt it? It takes eight A-rank adventurers, doesnt it?
Kou-sama. I am a calamity. There is no way I can be defeated by White Scorpion.
But you were unconscious when I ca here. What happened?
Actually, I dont know why.
Leticia said this while shaking her head.
Her expression was truly puzzled, and she didnt look like she was lying.
But just before I lost consciousness, I felt sothing like the pressure of another calamity from a short distance away. The presence was similar to that of the Gluttonous Dragon, but that dragon must have escaped to the outside of this world after being deeply wounded in the battle with Kou-sama. It is not possible for it to co back in such a short period. What in the world is happening?
Maybe its because I used [Spatial Manipulation].
Thats the unique ability of the Gluttonous Dragon, isnt it? How did Kou-sama get it?
I took it.
Eh?
My answer was unexpected to Leticia, and she was surprised.
For now, Ill show her the proof.
I activated one of the abilities included in [Spatial Manipulation] [Invisibility].
Do you believe now?
Yes, this is indeed the [Spatial Manipulation] of the Gluttonous Dragon. Ara?
Whats wrong?
May I see your left hand for a mont?
Yeah.
I deactivated [Invisibility] and held out my left hand.
Then Leticia cos in with her hands on both sides.
I can feel the presence of the Black Dragon from Kou-samas hand. Could it be that you can also use the [Calamity Summoning]?
How did you know?
I have knowledge of what it ans to be a calamity. There are three natural enemies of calamities. One is the hero with the [Dexterity], another is the sage with the [Magic Ingenuity], and the last is the demon king with the [Calamity Summoning] you have the [Calamity Summoning], so you must be the demon king.
No, Im not.
I shook my head.
What cos back to my mind are the events that took place just before I was transferred to this world.
Which role do you want to play, the hero, the sage, or the demon king? I was suddenly confronted with such a question.
I chose the hidden option 4, none of the above, and as a result, I obtained a number of cheat skills, including [Creation].
One of them includes [Dexterity].
Ive never heard of [Magic Ingenuity] but then the [Full Assist] starts up, and information flows into my head.
According to this, it seems that I am in possession of [Magic Ingenuity] at so point.
The effect is that by wearing a ring that seals the dragons power, you can freely handle magic of the corresponding attribute, and in my case, it is integrated into [Full Assist].
In short, I have all the skills of a hero, a demon king, and a sage, respectively.
When I told this to Leticia, she was completely speechless.
She looked stunned for a while but eventually ca to her senses and said to .
The hero, the demon king, and the sage possessing all three of these powers is sothing that would normally be impossible. You are truly an out-of-the-ordinary being. Now I am very interested in you.
Leticia continued to talk as she looked at with curiosity.
If it is all right with you, I would like to accompany you on your journey, Kou-sama. However, its a sudden proposal, and if its inconvenient, you can feel free to refuse, so
I dont mind, you know?
What did you just say?
Its getting late at night, and Im worried about leaving a woman so deep in the mountains. Shall we walk back to my carriage together?
Thank you very much. I would like to take your word for it but, Kou-sama, are you sure about this? Once again, I am a calamity.
You dont an to antagonize , do you?
Of course not. I have decided that I will only point my fist at villains and monsters.
She sounds like a righteous hero.
I tell Leticia with a wry smile.
If so, I have no problem with that. Im looking forward to working with you.
Fufu.
Whats wrong?
I think you have a big heart, dont you, Kou-sama? I think youre very nice.
Thats an overstatent.
I answered shortly.
I was a little embarrassed because I had suddenly been praised.
At that ti, I heard the voice of [Full Assist] in my head.
We agreed that Leticia di teor accompanies you.
Oops.
It seems that [Full Assist] also ca to the sa conclusion as , but on what basis?
Im a bit curious about this and the words continue to be spoken further.
If you have Leticia di teor accompany you, you will be able to conduct a detailed analysis of the existence of the calamity.
By using that information, we may be able to create an item with [Creation] in the future that is equivalent to or even exceeds the Yggdrasil Bow as an anti-calamity item.
This is a good thing to hear.
The Yggdrasil Bow is known as the Bow of the Calamity Killer, and as its na implies, it is imnsely powerful against calamities.
However, to use it, the arrow of the calamity killer is necessary, and according to Lilys [Foresight], the arrow is summoned in exchange for her life.
In the battle against the Gluttonous Dragon, the arrow could be summoned by consuming Lilys magical power.
But that was because the bows output was only at 20 percent, and if it were at 100 percent, for example, Lilys life might be sacrificed.
For my part, I would like to avoid such a situation.
If an item more powerful than the Yggdrasil bow could be created with [Creation], then the whole problem would be solved.
Lets hope for the results of the [Full Assist] analysis there.
* * *
I decided to guide Leticia back to the Grand Cabin, and on the way, she told about her background.
I was born in a snowy country far north, across the sea. Believe it or not, I was the second princess.
You an you were a princess?
Fufu, Im a little embarrassed to hear you say that.
Leticia continues her story with a smile on her face.
I thought I was just a human being at first. I kept all my mories and my powers as a calamity in the depths of my mind.
But one day, five years ago, Leticia underwent a profound change.
At the ti, the king of her country was ill, and a battle was raging in the court for the right to succeed to the throne. Of course, Leticia had no intention of succeeding to the throne, but whether that mattered to those around her was another matter.
On the day of her twelfth birthday Leticia ate a poisoned cookie, which led to her spending three days and three nights on the verge of life and death.
It was then that I rembered who I was.
When Leticia realized that she was a calamity, her power overca the poison, and she returned from the brink of death.
She then denounced the second prince who had ordered to poison her cookies, and after eliminating him from the race for the throne, she decided to leave the country.
Leticia was the second princess, right? How could soone of such high status leave her own country so easily?
Originally, it would have been impossible. However, each calamity has its own unique abilities. In my case, there are several, and I used one of them.
And what kind of ability is that? I an, can I ask you this?
To rephrase my question, it would be, Tell your moves.
Normally, it would have been understandable if she refused, but Leticia imdiately responded,
Since you have accepted to accompany you, I would like to share so information with you. One of my unique abilities is [Domination] simply put, its a kind of brainwashing. By infusing the dragons factor into anything I touch, I can turn people and things into puppets.
Does this an that it can be used on non-living things?
Yes. Let demonstrate it to you.
After saying this, Leticia reached out with her left hand and touched a tree that was nearby.
I command you in my na. Let it wither and lose its branches and leaves.
Many branches grew from the tree, and it was covered with nurous green leaves.
But the mont Leticia gave the order, all the branches and leaves fell off at once.
Thats roughly what happened.
Incidentally, Leticia is now buried in the fallen leaves because she was standing at the base of the tree. Only her face is sticking out, which is quite a surreal sight.
Perhaps she is more careless than I thought.
Are you all right?
When I said that and extended my right hand, Leticia replied with a mischievous expression on her face.
Ara, arent you afraid to touch ? I might use [Domination] on you, Kou-sama.
If you were going to use [Domination] on , you wouldnt have to go to the trouble of demonstrating and revealing your moves, would you?
But there is a possibility that I might be trying to catch Kou-sama off guard.
Well, I cant deny that possibility. But to begin with, [Domination] wont work on .
Seriously?
Apparently, my words ca as a big shock to Leticia.
Her young ladys language seems to be falling apart a bit.
Yeah. Im serious.
I nodded.
In my mind, [Full Assist] was telling this.
We are currently analyzing [Domination].
Progress report, the Arrogant Dragon factor can be blocked by the [Transmigrator] possessed by Kou Kousaka.
Kou-sama is truly out of the norm, isnt he?
Leticia sighs in admiration.
According to my mory as a calamity, the hero, the sage, and the demon king are all protected by the [Transmigrator] skill. But the effect of [Domination] should have been much stronger.
Shall we give it a try?
If only you would be willing to try it, Kou-sama
Leticia reached out with her left hand and squeezed my right hand from the back of the hand.
I command you in my na. Um, tell what your hobbies are.
Although I am not sure why she wanted to tell her about my hobbies, I guess Leticia thought she was giving a reasonable order.
As I was being convinced myself, an inorganic voice echoed in my brain.
The Arrogant Dragon Factor has been detected. The condition abnormality nullification of the [Transmigrator] is used to block it.
The next mont, a silver light burst around my right hand.
Kyaaa!
Leticia lets out a small scream.
Then, looking sullenly at my right hand, she said.
The [Domination] certainly didnt work, did it?
Thats what I ant. By the way, my hobby is
Huh? What are my hobbies?
When I was a university student, I used to play video gas, but after I started working, I havent been able to play anything properly.
I dont think I have any hobbies even after coming to this world.
I read a few books when I moved from city to city, but that was just like killing ti
When I was at a loss for an answer, Leticia chuckled.
You dont have to answer. By the way, my hobbies are poetry and painting.
Thats a very cultured hobby.
Shall I recite one?
Leticia said casually and took a deep breath.
Then, she sang in a high voice.
You are the dragon-slaying hero who led the Black Dragon to devour the Gluttonous Dragon.
You have co from a distant land. What do you think and what will you do?
May your journey brings you many blessings.
Well
I lack artistic sense, so I cant judge if this is a great poem or not.
However, the overall atmosphere is sowhat chuunibyou-ish, and in that respect, I feel a sense of familiarity with it.
I used to write strange poems in my notebook when I was a teenager.
This poem, though.
Leticia said.
Ive taken the liberty of making a poem about you, Kou-sama. Did you notice it?
Yes, of course.
I can use the Black Dragon through the [Summoning Calamity], and I have taken away the [Spatial Manipulation] from the Gluttonous Dragon.
Moreover, in Aunen, Toue, and Surier, I am also called the dragon slayer; it is clear that Leticias poem is about .
Fufu, Im glad you recognize it. When I was back ho, no one understood my poetry.
Well, I guess thats inevitable.
A chuunibyou poem requires a special sense to decipher it.
We left the forest and headed up the hill to the Grand Cabin, which was parked near the top.
Dest, our lookout, noticed us and approached us.
Welco back, Master. And whos this woman?
Leticia, can you introduce yourself?
Of course.
Nodding at my words, Leticia picked up the hem of her skirt and spread it from side to side.
My na is Leticia di teor. Pleased to et you.
Nice to et you, Leticia-san. My na is Dest.
Dest bowed with his left hand on his abdon and his right hand on his back, just like a butler.
Fufu, that gesture is almost like a human being. You are a remarkable Orichalcum Golem, Kou-sama. Where in the world did you find this child?
I found it, or rather, I made it with my skills. Strictly speaking, Dest is not an Orichalcum Golem. Hes a Destroyer Golem equipped with a super high-powered magic laser cannon. A new type that didnt exist in ancient civilizations.
Eh?
My reply was unexpected for Leticia, it seems.
Her deep blue eyes widen in surprise, and she blinks repeatedly, muttering softly.
If my knowledge is correct, it should be impossible to manufacture a new type of Orichalcum Golem with modern technology, even if one has the skills. And, to produce an original new type of Orichalcum Golem is You are truly out of the ordinary, arent you, Kou-sama?
Fufu!
At Leticias words, for so reason, Dest proudly puffed out his chest.
Both of his eyes flashed with a cupids eye, and he emitted an electronic voice.
Master is an amazing person-nanodesu!
Fufu. Dest-san really admires Kou-sama, doesnt he?
Of course!
Dest straightened his back and made a saluting pose with his right hand.
What can I say? I am indeed embarrassed when I am praised so much.
I opened the door of the Grand Cabin with my left hand while scratching my cheek with my right hand.
Its getting late. Why dont we go inside?
Fufu, yes, of course.
Whether Letitia noticed my embarrassnt or not she smiled softly and got into the Grand Cabin with light steps.
The ground floor of the Grand Cabin was pitch black, but when our presence was detected, the magic lights on the ceiling automatically flicked on. A warm orange light illuminated the area.
Well!
Looking around the interior of the Grand Cabin, Leticia let out a sigh of admiration.
Ive never seen such a luxurious carriage before. It has a living room, dining room, and even a kitchen in the back
Theres even a private room upstairs. Leticia is right, you can take the room at the front, just up the stairs.
It was originally my room, but Ill give it to the lady.
I can sleep on the living room sofa.
Its wide enough for six adults to sit side by side, so theres plenty of room to lie down.
The other two rooms are occupied by my friends. They are probably asleep by now, so can you introduce yourself to them tomorrow?
Yes, thats fine. By the way, may I ask you sothing that I dont know?
Of course. Ask anything you like.
How many private rooms are upstairs?
Three.
I occupy one of them, and your friends occupy two, right? There are only three private rooms, so they are all occupied.
Oops.
Leticia seed to have noticed.
Where will you sleep tonight, Kou-sama? If you give up your room to , Im afraid you wont have any place to sleep
No need to worry. I will sleep on the sofa in this living room.
If so, please use the bedroom, Kou-sama. I am a calamity, and the sofa will be enough for .
What does that have to do with being a calamity?
I dont know? But it is certain that I do not choose my bed. Even when I was in my holand, I was scolded for taking naps on the tree tops.
Leticia was the second princess, wasnt she?
My father told , I was hoping you would grow up healthy, but youre too healthy, thats what he said
Uh.
In sum, Leticias outward appearance is that of a noble daughter, but on the inside, she is a very tomboyish princess.
So, Ill be sleeping in the living room, is that right?
There is no connection at all.
As expected of you, Kou-sama, you have noticed it after all.
Of course. Be that as it may, whether Leticia is a calamity or not, I cant have a woman lying in a place like this. Think of it as you doing a favor and taking the upstairs room.
Now that you put it that way, I cant argue with that.
Leticia giggled, and a smile appeared in her mouth.
I dont want to embarrass you, Kou-sama, and Im going to be very gracious this ti.
Yeah, please do.
Thank you. Then good night. I really appreciate your concern.
Leticia finally said and went up the stairs to the second floor with light steps.
Phew
Once I was alone, I yawned.
Im feeling nice and sleepy, and if Im going to sleep, now would be a good ti.
Well then, good night.
