What is this, a guardian dog...? Oh, no, not the dog, the guardian statue?
The main gate (or is it?) of the Temple of the Spirits, with two large statues of demons facing each other. I think it was.
And it's so elaborate... it looks like it's going to move at any moment and it's really scary. No, seriously, the quality of this statue is too high.
Oh, you know what I mean? Well, those who can understand it, you know~. After all, I'm so proud of the work I've put so much effort into over the past 10 years~! It's not the same aura that oozes out of them, you say? Dignity, you mean? Hmmm, worship and prostrate yourself all you want!
'Awesome is awesome. But the way you say it, though, is so disgusting...
Not so bad, Mr. Sayre.
I was a little annoyed, but Uzuki gently soothed me.
The way she gently wraps her hands around me with both of mine is just like her mother.
Yes, I love you so much, Uzuki mom!
What are you flirting with? Well, it's fine........but the Spiritual God Dragon doesn't like the unintelligent Patriarchs. That's why the match is a contest of wits! Now I'm going to measure your intelligence!
As soon as those words ended.
Peek-a-boo!
Just as the eyes of the statue on the right-hand side of the room seemed to glow green, the statue began to move!
Hmm, a gargoyle.
Shin'enryu easily dismisses it.
"Gargoyle...! I know what it is! That's it, some kind of moving statue!
That's what I'm talking about, Mr. Sayre!
Of course, Uzuki is a very knowledgeable man.
He knew more about it than I did.
Smile.
She's a really well-made girl who only smiles and doesn't say anything tactful, but makes boys who want to be cool by showing them what they're made of feel good about themselves.
And.
"He that hath no wisdom, let him depart...
The stern voice announcing the time of judgment came out from the gargoyle - immediately after that.
No, I mean immediately afterwards, or rather, before he finished saying it, it was already--.
Doggone it!!!!
With a loud noise, the statue was blown to dust.
'Wait, what? Yesyyy!
The genie was cowering in the background.
To be honest, I was scared too!
Hey, hey! What are you doing all of a sudden, Shin-enryu?
You call out to me, and then you say, "Leave without wisdom. I'll kill you.
I wouldn't have killed you, but you destroyed every trace of it before your mouth did!
When the mightiest dragon says he's going to kill you, it's after he's already killed you.
And then he said with a cool face
"We don't say 'Kyoto people don't die'. I say 'I'm dead,' after I've killed him.
I gave it my best shot, I had to give it my best shot.
What is this guy really doing?
Wait. My Lord's words are difficult to hear sometimes...
'Ugh, well, that's nice... or rather, what was that, a new kind of dragon breath?
The dragon breath needs to be stored. Didn't the Lord get to you last time? That's why I developed a new Dragon Breath that is less powerful and can fire faster.
''Geez, even though you're just demonically strong, your fighting power has been greatly improved by losing...!
The day is not far off when she will be the strongest again.......What's the matter with you, my Lord, quivering so much? Isn't this a witty little joke?
''No, because when you say it, it doesn't sound like a joke. If you say it right after you've blown up a gargoyle in zero frames, it sounds like you're already trying to get your life, and I'm gobsmacked.......
As we were having this exchange, we were standing beside each other.
'Aaaaahhhh! The gargoyle I spent 10 years painstakingly crafting........! I can't believe they're going to break it before I can even get the problem out... blah, blah, blah, blah!
Oh my god, that genie is starting to cry....
"Live strong...
Although he was an enemy, I softly supported him, knowing what was on his mind.
