TENKEN 669 The Trip to The Royal Capital

We set out from Lady Blue and headed for the royal capital of the Kingdom of Belios.

Urushi briskly ran across the clear sky with only a few clouds in the sky with us on his back.

「Woof woof!」

「Urushi looks so happy」

『Does it feel good for being able to run as fast as you can?』

「Woof!」

Well, he belongs to the canine family after all; they like to run a lot.

We're currently traveling at a very high altitude. Although we're still below the clouds, we're still about 2000 meters away from the ground.

At this height, even if Urushi had returned to his original size and were running at full speed, no one would notice him from the ground.

「Woof woo~f!」

「Ooh―」

『Fran, don't lose your grip!』

It seems that the tension was getting too high, and Urushi's movements started to get more vigorous. He tried running at a higher altitude, changing his stride and jumping up and down, and so on.

「Woof woof woo-f!」

「Uooh―!」

『Wha- hey, we might fall!』

He even did a crazy trick where he spun around and ran in a spiral with Fran as the origin. It was as if we were riding on a roller coaster.

Fran cheerfully shouted, perhaps amused by the G-force that hit us from various directions. It was just like a real roller coaster.

But I'm still worried that Fran might fall if this continues.

『U-Urushi! You're getting too excited!』

「Woof...」

「It's over already?」

『And Fran, don't put such a face now!』

As we were making our way through the sky, we saw a strange light glittering in the sky.

「Woof?」

「Master, is that, a Heavenly Dragon?」

『Yeah, it seems so』

When I looked up, I saw that there was an island floating in the air. And as if it was sucking at the surface of the white clouds that surrounded the island, something long and thin was steadily moving in it.

It's definitely a Heavenly Dragon, a magic beast with a threat level of A. It was said that they're usually seen in the clouds, but they sometimes appear outside by chance.

「It's glowing」

『I wonder if it was due to the reflection of the sun's rays』

The Heavenly Dragons, which specializes in light magic, wears the light of magical power on its body. And not only that, it's probably reflecting the light of the sun that is pouring down on it.

We had been shown the Heavenly Dragons material from the magic academy's warehouse, but the scales of a living Heavenly Dragons had a completely different glow to them.

The scales of the Heavenly Dragons I saw in the warehouse had a dull gold color on them. My impression was that they looked just like King Ghi〇rah's scales. However, they seemed to gain a mirror-like shine when they were infused with magic power.

(TLN: Ghidorah, the three-headed winged dragon in Godzilla)

The sight of the Heavenly Dragon shining in bright platinum ascending through the clouds is so beautiful that it makes me want to worship it.

I now understand the meaning of the saying that good fortune comes to those who can see it.

『Looks like something good is going to happen』

「Nn」

「Woof!」

The sight of the Heavenly Dragon flying gracefully in the sky made me feel as if it was blessing us on our journey.

Two days after we left Lady Blue.

We made stops at towns and villages along the way to buy local specialties, and continued our smooth journey to the east.

And without any problems, we arrived at the royal capital of the Kingdom of Belios.

『Uwaa~h, as expected of the royal capital of a major power. It's as big as the royal capital of the Kingdom of Kranzel』

「Nn. The walls are high and the road is wide」

「Woof」

I was surprised by how big Lady Blue was, but that was mostly because of the size of the academy. But here, the scale of the city was simply bigger.

「Let's go to the castle」

『Ou. Urushi, you shouldn't get big here, okay?』

「Woof」

We got lost in the Kingdom of Kranzel's royal capital, but I don't think such a thing is going to happen now. All we had to do was to walk almost in a straight line from the gate to reach the royal castle after all.

A huge castle could be seen at the end of the main street where carriages could be lined up to 20 rows abreast. They must have systematically built the royal capital.

『Now, let's go』

「Nn」

However, this wide road proved to be a problem for Fran.

「Mogu mogu」

「Momu momu」 *eating SFX

『Is it good?』

「Nn」

「Woof!」

Our customary shopping and eating begin. As usual, Fran and Urushi zigzagged down the street, hitting every single stall they saw.

This is the first time I've seen someone zigzagging along a road this wide.

It took us about 30 minutes to go 100 meters. It would have been better if we only had to go to one side of the street, but because both Fran and Urushi have good noses, they quickly discovered the stall on the other side.

「Over here, I smell something good」

「Woof!」

She must have spotted another stall on the opposite side of the street, she then ran off to weave her way through the crowds.

『How long will this take us to get to the royal castle...?』

《If we continue at this pace, it will take us an estimated 4 hours and 38 minutes to reach the royal castle》

So long! At this rate, it will be night before we can get there!

『Hey, we are still a long way from the royal castle... Why don't we finish our errands first?』

「...Nn」

「...Woof」

Kuh! Don't look at me with such sad eyes! But I can't let this get the better of me this time.

『Later! Once we've done our errands, I'll let you go as long as you want! So why don't we go to the castle now? Okay?』

「As long as I want... Okay, let's go to the castle」

Ah, I wonder was it a bad idea to promise her that...
