Reincarnation into the Barrier Master

Gon and I were in agreement. I understand his feelings, but given his current skills and situation, it would be next to impossible for him to make it across the forest without a plan.

The baby dragon is grunting and moaning. Somehow he knows what he is doing.

"It\'s getting late. We\'ll figure out what to do tomorrow. Let\'s have dinner. My name is Linos. I\'m a warder. You\'re welcome to join us if you\'d like.

"G-g-g-ga-ga... Garth."

I\'m sorry for sheltering you. He says his name is Lars.

He takes Lars in his arms, puts Gon on his back, and leaves the headquarters of the Royal Army. Then I head straight for the house of Barsam.

I release the wards on the house and let Gon and Lars in. Ilimo is too shy to come in. I have no choice but to use earth magic to build a simple stable on the grassy lawn. I put out carrots and water for dinner, and he neighs happily. He seems to be very comfortable, which makes me feel relieved.

Back in the room, I go to the kitchen. Gon and Lars are talking with each other.

Well, what shall we cook? There is a large amount of potatoes in the endless storage. Let\'s use one of them to make croquettes today.

Boil water in a pot, add potatoes and a pinch of salt. Make a little more because you want it for storage. While the potatoes are boiling, chop the onion. Fry them in a frying pan until their color becomes clear. Season with salt and pepper while letting the water evaporate.

The potatoes are just about ready to be boiled. The heat magic raises the temperature of your hands. This way you can peel them crispily without burning yourself. Then mash them with a large fork, add pepper and salt and mix them together.

The water magic and the wind magic are applied to create a cold wind to cool it down. In the meantime, prepare the oil on the fire, crack the eggs and form the seeds into an oval shape. Make it. Make the oval shape. Then sprinkle with wheat flour and bread in a pan, pass the seeds through the eggs and coat them with breadcrumbs.

Then put them in oil. It smells very fragrant. While frying the croquettes, I take out the vegetables and make a salad.

After a while, a lot of croquettes are ready. Then I prepare the salad and bread, and dinner is ready.

Both Gon and Lars are eating rapidly. Lars had already eaten some of the croquettes earlier, but he was eating them as fast as he could. They both look delicious. I tried some croquettes myself, and I must say they were delicious. It tasted even better when I put it between bread.

After the meal, we had zenzai for dessert. Now all the croquettes I made are gone. I have to make more.

As for the future, Lars insists on going back to the herd. Gon and I agreed with him. Especially since we have nowhere to go and there is nothing we can do in this uninhabited capital. We will hunt in the forest and send Lars back to the herd. If not, we\'ll think about it then. The royal city was destroyed, but there are some cities in Jukka kingdom. We could go there. In some cases, we can go across the mountains to the Heedata Empire. We\'ll think about that after we get to Mount Juka.

I told Gon about this idea.

"I agree. I agree with you. I will tell Lars about it as soon as possible.

Gong tells Lars with a giggle and a squeak. I wonder if he can communicate with such a voice, but he does. Lars nods his head. Then Lars cries out and flies to my chest. What a crybaby!

"Gggooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

"Make me something sweet again," he said.

Hi, hi. We have a lot of sweet potatoes, so I\'ll make takaimo (sweet potatoes) next time. Hey, since when did I become their cook?

The next thing I knew, Lars was sleeping and sighing in his sleep. His sleeping face is quite cute. Indeed, it might be the first time in a long time for him to be able to sleep after having endured such a harsh situation so far.

"Gugua~gugua~gugua~"

He\'s talking in his sleep. When I asked Gong about it, he said

"...she\'s saying \'mama, mama\'..."

I held Lars for a while. I wonder what his mother would have done in a previous life. You\'re lucky to have a mother. I decided to return the dragon to its home.

All the rooms with beds are gone so he sleeps on the dining room floor. I put a tablecloth on the floor, and instead of blankets I put a layer of tablecloths on top and sleep with them over me. Gon sleeps curled up on the sofa cushion. They are very good and expensive. What a luxury.

I fell asleep with Lars on my arm. I put a ward on my body in case I was injured by the dragon\'s scales and fell into a deep sleep.

That night I had a dream.

The usual Bertham house. My usual bed. Oh, I must have overslept a little. I hurriedly changed into my usual butler\'s uniform.

I have to go downstairs to wash my face and greet the master.

As I leave the room, one of the maids comes from the bottom of the stairs and says "Linos, quickly! I\'m going to go. Oh, okay, I\'m sorry. I\'m sorry.

When I went out into the entrance hall, I saw Lady Elsa and Eryl standing side by side. Good morning, master and miss. You\'re up very early today, aren\'t you, miss? How can I help you?

Then the front door opened and Master Falco appeared. Master Falco, who is always in a bad mood in the morning, looked very happy. How unusual. To my surprise, the Marquis Bertherm and the Regent appear behind him. Huh? Was there a party today?

"Linos."

Suddenly, I hear Lady Elsa\'s voice.

"Hi, master."

"Thank you for your hard work. I just wanted to say thank you. You did a really good job."

Oh, no. What a waste. I hang my head, thinking, "I didn\'t do anything to deserve such a comment.

I had no idea you had become so strong. That\'s my boy.

"He\'ll be fine. He\'s done enough. Thank you so much, Mr. Linos.

"As head of the House of Batham, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Thank you very much.

What\'s wrong with everyone? Surely I\'m not...? Kargi, the Royal Army, the Chief Dragon...? Huh?

"Linos, you are now free to live your life."

Oh, no, master.

"Linos."

I hear Eryl\'s voice.

"Thank you for being with me, honey. I\'m really glad I found you."

Eril smiles the biggest smile I\'ve ever seen on his face. Hey, Eril, don\'t look at me like that. Go talk to him with your eyebrows furrowed like you always do!

"Oh, it\'s time to go. We should get going."

Everyone\'s ganging up on each other. The maids are leaving with them. I have to go with them.

Suddenly Eryl looks back. And..,

"Don\'t forget about me. I won\'t forget you."

In the light, Eryl disappeared. When I went outside, there was no one there. Where did they all go? Master! Marquis! Master! Your Highness! Miss! Erryl!

I woke up. It seems like it\'s still before dawn.

I got up unsteadily and went to the kitchen. I got a big pot and started to make zenzai. I put my heart and soul into it.

Soon the zenzai was ready. Delicious. Really delicious. A masterpiece.

I walked out of the kitchen with the whole pot in my arms. Ilimo seems to be still sleeping.

Steam was rising, and I put my hands to the sky.

"Miss, this is the zenzai I wanted to feed you. Please eat as much as you can. Please eat as much as you like, Master, Duke, Master, Your Highness. I will never forget you. Thank you for everything. And I will never forget you, Miss Eril.

The stunningly beautiful sunrise colored me beautifully.
