The Lazy Dragon is Working Hard
Episode 13
After finished the Guardian Dragon God of Sloth ordeal, I spent the day chillin. I was sleeping for a few months in my human form but returned to the dragon form when I wake up. Even though Runamiria complained but I hate my human form because it makes me remember of who I used to be. More importantly, isn’t her leg feel cramped for staying in the same position for a few months?
I also was informed about hero-kun journey. He set off using the empire airship and has bee subduing demons all around the world. He seemed to be in a good health. If he keep this up in the future it will be really possi le to defeat the demon lord and entering Makai. Thanks to my hard work. And once he finished, my task of orchestrating the brave system will be reduced.
Until the time the demon lord is defeated, I can leisurely take a nap and enjoy it.
“Gurururur.. ”
It was coming from my stomach.
” guardian sama. Do you hear that? ”
Oh shit.. I will pretend to still be asleep.
” Guardian sama, are you awake? Just now… ”
” Hooaaaammm.. ”
Runamiria is trying to say something but I will continue feigning my innocence.
” I know you’re awake. When you’re sleeping, your breath is heavier and it have a bass like sound. I’m familiar with it. ”
” Whoa scary.. You even know the sound of my breath. ”
” of course. Afterall I got nothing to do when you’re asleep except observing you. ”
” Don’t do that. ”
Of course I’m happy.. But, it was kind of creepy at the same time.
” Runamiria, in the name of Guardian Dragon God of Sloth, I ban you from seeing my sleeping face. ”
” what… ”
Runamiria face then turned white as if seeing a ghost. She immediately collapsed to the ground.
” Please show me some mercy guardian sama. Please! ”
She is clinging to my leg and crying.
” No! Peeking on my sleeping face is a breach of privacy. ”
Afterall, knowing someone is observing my sleeping face couldn’t make me sleep calmly.
” Please forgive me! If I can’t saw your sleeping face, 50% of my health is gone. ”
How can my sleeping face make up 50% of your health?
” Anyway, what about the rest? ”
” Of course it was when you’re awake. ”
Oh no. She is now looking at me with her pleading puppy eyes. It is really hard to resist.
” Alright.. Arrggh.. I lift the ban earlier. ”
” Guardian sama, thank you! ”
Runamiria tears is still falling down but now her face is blooming like flower. Usually I will said” How dare you cling to me” but I’ll let it go this time. If she was a dog, her tail must be waving like crazy that it could create a whirlwind.
“It seemed like you two really get along. ”
It was a voice coming directly inside my head. I look around and saw a midteen boy eith a semi transparent body floating in the air. Long distance conversation magic?
The boy appearance is well dressed and smiling haughty. His face is good looking however he have horns, wings, and tail similar to my human form. He is one of seven guardian god.
“Long time no see, Pride. ”
He is God of Arrogance, Pride. Befitting his name , he have big bossy attitude and he could easily offended people. The last time I saw him was a few thousand years ago.
” Yo, long time no see. I see you’ve grown a bit. ”
Actually I don’t want to meet him. Everytime a guardian god met with each other, something troublesome has haplened.
” By the way laziness, I have a request.. C
“Oh Pride san, I’m sorry to tell you that I was hurt when the hero party come. I’m even bleeding. ”
” Oh? Are you holding back or playing around? To think a human could actually hurt you. ”
” It’s just that the enemy is the hero party. He should be able to met your expectations too. Please look forward to it. ”
” Laziness, it is the general assembly.. ”
” I am to lazy to listen. Sorry. ”
” Please, or I will keep bugging you till you can’t sleep. ”
” That’s…. Aaaah.. Alright I’ll listen. ”
There goes my peace.
” This matter is absolutely disgusting till I have no choice but to ask help from the other guardian god. ”
What could make him said something disgusting?
” So, I think that there is no better competent Guardian God other than you. ”
Hah.. His mind must be broken. How can I am the laziest one be the most competent?
“You know, I am even feel frustated that I couldn’t solve it on my own. You must have know my feeling God of Sloth.”
Runamiria is also listening seriously.
“So, what is the problem? ”
” It is a very nasty situation. ”
What is it? Another mana stream trouble? A false God appear?
” I don’t want to decorate it with nice words. In conclusion, this world is in danger. This world will perish! ”
…. What?…
Episode 11
After receiving a love confession from Pigna, I leave in the morning to defeat the demon.
However I traveled alone. I couldn’t sleep because of the monster on the way. I think I will get some companion later.
The first one is a warrior called Broad. I met him on the way when he lost all of his money. It was stolen by his party then they abandoned him. He attacked me at first because he is now a bandit. However after I defeat him and tell him I am the hero, he is willing to help.
I will have taciturn expressionless genius magical girl Paula to help me. A genius child from Torumekia empire. She will accept to be my helper at the cost of me gathering materials for her research.
I have a hard time.
From rare medicinal herbs, internal organs of powerful monsters. Afterall is her research successful?
The last one is bloody priest Gorham. Rather than his healing capability, he was famous for repelling monster by beating them using a staff. The time he finished, his robe is dyed red with blood. He was feared by the people however he agreed to join me when I tell him that I want to defeat the demon lord.
Pigna, look at me now. I have dependable friends.
After that I come to Assurado continent. I will be going trough a rites of passage of the Guardian Dragon God of Sloth.
They said the first hero doesn’t need to do this, but since the demon grow stronger, we need to get the blessing to be stronger.
However, God of Sloth. Is it the real deal? I mean, getting stronger and “sloth” is like the completely different things.
Except from Gozman empire coronation ordeal, usually the area is off limits.
We asked Harold emperor which newly enthroned and he said.
“The shrine of God of sloth may not look promising. However the legend was true. If you could pass the lazy barrier, the Dragon God will give you his blessing. ”
I was asking about the detail but he said.
” Don’t worry. It’s something you could handle. However I wish for your success. ”
After that the guards take us to the shrine entrance. We enters afterwards.
” how long..? ”
” it’s far… ”
After a while we entered, no one is not complaining.
Hours! I’m tired physically and mentally.
” Why did the emperor said it was easy? ”
Broad sighed. Altough he loves training, just walking is boring.
” Assurado people is famous for hardwork. We need to be diligence. The seemingly endless cave is the embodiment of their national policy. ”
Gorham said that with a villainous facr that emerges under the torch light.
” This place have a great mana atmosphere. ” the eyes of always taciturn expressionless Paula is shining.
” The emperor said the barrier is making us lazy. ”
” also it was harmful to the body if we stayed too long. Will be too lazy to think, breath, and eventually died. ”
” How scary.. ”
Broad was groaning and sweating.
” This is truly a trial of God of Sloth. ”
” Just hang on. ”
I keep on yelling to keep our spirit up.
We finally arrived at the inner shrine.
What greets js is a incredibly beautiful woman. There is also a huge black dragon. It must be the Guardian Dragon God of Sloth.
It’s dangerous. Just facing him, my legs is trembling. The 3 people behind me also suffered under the pressure . However we can’t givr up.
“My name is Ars Funnel. I am here to ask for a blessing. ” it is the hero courage .
” Oh well. If that’s so, hero. Please be prepared. ”
He show his fangs, I’m not afraid. Absolutely not.
Pigna is waiting for me.
——–
Oh, the hero have come again. I wonder when did I started the brave hero operation. Because I know the truth.
Makai world is a harsh world. Because of mana stream, they couldn’t cultivate enough food. Therefore to resolve it, the resident of Makai decided to invaded the ground. Therefore I was the guardian of this world. I also have a responsibility to protect it, regardless of race.
I want to create a peace between human world and Makai, however battle between race is hard to resolve.
There are races like elf, fairy, beast, dwarf and many more. They also have guardian god like me. However no one is liking my hero idea. How to solve it? Battle between races like elf trying to dominate using magic, beast race against slavery, it all run deep down. Like Makai against human, only time could tell. To resolve the dispute is my job as a Guardian God.
It was a happy future but it is a cumbersome work. I need to overlook the hero.
Well, I need to change my appearance because the pressure was too great for them. I jumped of my bed and lift my mana. I am a Guardian God but not exactly a Dragon. The Dragon shape was made by my consciousness by shaping mana. That’s the real form of Guardian Dragon God. It was made from my memory as a high school student.
I was in a pressence of almighty being. I was told that I will be the world’s guardian. To do that, I need to be the strongest. My thoughts was the strongest creature. Because of that, I ended up with a dragon shaped body.
Before I land, my makeover is complete.
It is my human form.
Dressed in scales instead of clothes, long black hair flowing, three pairs of wing and tail comes out from my back.
“Now, are you ready hero? ”
(TL note: the author put flashback inside of thoughts so it was kinda wierd. I hope you’re not confused.)
