I applied a 3rd Class Recovery Magic High Heal to the wounded dark dragon. It didn’t feel like what I used was a High Heal, though.
Although I could recover its HP which has been dropped halfway, I probably won’t be able to cure its heart.
‘…Pochi?’
“Your name. The proof that you have become my new pet subordinate.”
”…I’m willing to follow you, but does that name have any meaning? It sounds like you’re making fun of me.”
“Abbreviation for Pomeranian Chow Chow, a brave beast. Cool, right?”
”Mm. You may call me Pochi, then.’
I was happy to hear that he appreciated the name I had given him.
Apparently, dragons had a habit of paying respect to strong individuals, and the dark dragon, Pochi, who looked like he had lost without even a single scratch, slowly locked gazes with me as it laid down its huge body.
Even though it was enormous, it might be smaller than an ordinary old dragon. It was slender, with large forelegs and bushy hair instead of scales, so the overall impression was similar to that of a wolf.
But as a dragon, its tail is as long as its body, and its wings are about the same size. Was it a subspecies?
The large wings and tail make it look comparable in size to a normal dragon, but the body was small in comparison, so even I managed to hold it down.
Even though I was worried about the fluff, I was surprised that I could hold down a dragon that was bigger than a horse by just holding down its body…. The dragon also melted at my hand technique.
I was more concerned about something else. According to the history of the Kingdom of Caenista, the nation of humans, an invasion was launched by the Daemons, and the Kingdom of Caenista took the lead in defeating two of the Daemon nations, making the last Daemon nation retreat, but because the Daemons released demons on the land they invaded, it became demon territory, and they never got their territory back.
But the Daemons have been here longer than the kingdom’s history, and there were even Daemon remains here.
Even if Daemon did unleash demons, it would be strange for the area to have turned into a demon forest dense with magical elements in just a few decades.
If that was the case, then this area was originally a demon forest, and the human tribe launched an invasion war against it?
It was also possible that Daemon initiated the war against them, and they invaded in the opposite direction, but since they claimed Daemon’s territory as their own, I was not able to tell which side was right.
Did they become subhuman-haters as a result of being attacked by Daemons, or did they attack the Daemons as a result of their determination to maintain human race supremacy, and who exactly led the attack?
Which country started the war against the Daemons?
It was a little suspicious. I would have to look into it.
For now, I would like to ask Pochi to take the lead and bring the Daemon people here.
That concludes my request. Well, it didn’t look like anything interesting would come out of the ruins, but it was a good thing that I had Pochi to help me strengthen my skills.
I reported to the eldest of the Daemons, and when I came back here a few days later…
