“W-wait, c-calm down, Lama!? I’m dying, you know!?”
“So what!? You abandoned you wife, left the village, and worse, you got yourself consumed by ‘filth’, then came back to attack your wife and your brethren…! You should be ashamed of yourself, you moron!”
――Pah!
“Abuuu!?”
“““……”””
Another tight slap swung down on Agartha’s cheek, and we couldn’t help but screw our faces up.
Considering the content of their conversation, it appeared that the woman was Agartha’s wife.
Moreover, looking at her state, she was probably the ‘silver flying dragon’.
I never thought that dragon would be a woman.
I hit her in the face with the lance with all my strength many times over, too… Should I apologize later…?
As I was thinking, the woman turned towards us and said.
By the way, her slaps seemed to have worked wonders on Agartha, he was twitching on the ground, dying.
“You were the ones who stopped us, right? Thank you. I’m Lama, a member of the silver flying dragon kind of the dragonfolk tribe. I’m the wife… I mean, the ‘ex’ wife of this moron.”
“Wha!? I’ve never heard about this!?”
Ah, he revived.
“Shut it! Do you know just how I felt while I was waiting for you all this time!?”
“N-no, but I wanted to create a world of only demi-humans for your sak—”
“I never asked for that! I just wanted you to be by my side! But you weren’t! So a divorce it is!”
“N-no way…”
Agartha’s face went pale, and Lama-san crossed her arms, “Hmph,” and turned her face away.
The injury on her left shoulder should be quite serious, but she looked as if she was completely fine. She had probably forgotten the pain from anger.
Then, Shiva-san whispered in my ear, “You’d better pay attention,” and gave me advice, “even if two people are tied with a strong bond, that bond may be broken if not handled with care. Just like those two.”
“I-I’ll keep that in mind…” I nodded, my face twitching.
Afterward, I healed all the dragonfolks, including Agartha and his (ex) wife Lama-san, with area heal, and we left the dragonfolk village.
Lama-san had said she’d like to throw a feast to thank us, but the village would likely be busy deciding on how to deal with Agartha, and we still had the ‘Axe’ Saint Boreios to purify.
So, I had politely declined, although I’d felt sorry.
“Still, I never imagined there’d be someone among the saints who has married.” I suddenly wondered out loud on the way back to Estona.
Porco-san needed not be mentioned, the incubus Hesperios most likely had no concept of marriage, while Shangarula and Canaan were also single.
Given the big ambition they had, that was ‘destroying humankind’, I’d always thought they were not the kind of people who’d make such a bond. I mean, in worst case scenario, the people precious to them might ended up being taken hostage.
At least, Elysium seemed to be of that type to me.
“Well, we, the Savior side, have polygamous relationship, too. It’s not that strange,” Arca said.
“Yeah. But the situation is a little special in our case. Without the Phoenix Seal, we wouldn’t have been able to overcome so many difficult situations.”
Like the battle against Hesperios, and even at present, with《Superior Arms》.
“Fumu. Our becoming a married couple is a good thing, indeed. It must be what they call fate.”
As Arca laughed boldly, Shiva-san said, “Yeah,” in agreement but, “and considering the battle against Phinis that would be coming soon, it’s time for you to decide on what to do with the ‘seventh saintess’, don’t you think?”
“The seventh saintess…? Ah…”
There I noticed.
There was one saintess who did not have the Phoenix Seal yet.
Yes, it was the ‘Sword’ Saintess—Elma.
I had completely forgotten about it because of Porco-san, but we’d had a talk about whether I should kabedon her or not, hadn’t we?
No, but it was Elma we were talking about here…
Uh, what should I do? I worried inwardly, but I couldn’t come up with an answer, so I tried to propose to the two, “Hey, if it’s a saintess we need, then Iris—”
““……””
――Stare.
“Is definitely not suitable… yes.”
I knew it… I thought to myself.
Well, it’d pose another problem if they allowed it, though…
