The Reincarnated Wizard Who Will Eventually Become the Strongest

Chapter 94: Retrieve the Dragon's Children ③

Translated by AmaLynne

The house of Marquis Gordon was located in a corner of the noble district not far from the royal palace.

It had large grounds and a well-kept garden. The three-story house was, as one would expect from a nobleman of such a high rank.

As Sam, Günther, and the scorching dragon walked straight to Marquis Gordon’s house, the gatekeepers with spears held up, waiting for them.

「Wait! Who do you think you are!?」

「In and out, you son of a bitch!」

Basically, he had decided to defeat all those involved with the Marquis Gordon family as enemies, so without hesitation, he struck them with his physically enhanced fists to silence them.

As it was, they kicked down the gate of the mansion, and the three of them, with Sam in the lead, entered the premises.

「Bandits! The bandits have shown up! *Dae, dae!*」

「What kind of period drama is this?」

Because of the noise and destruction of the gate, the Marquise’s private army gathers.

Fully armed.

「Why are you guys so eager to fight? Perhaps you’re being told by your master to protect something?」

「I have nothing to say to the bandits!」

Soldiers rush into a straight line.

Since they were considered bandits, they swung their swords down without question.

However, their skill level is so low that there is no need to avoid them.

Sam unleashed his physically strengthened fist, shattering the oncoming sword and punching the soldier as it was.

「Yes, next.」

Fighting a swordsman, Sam doesn’t feel like losing unless someone better than Lise shows up.

Before that, the soldiers were also a valuable source of information, so he couldn’t kill them.

「Wait, Sam. Let me help you.」

.

「Can you fight?」

「I can fight against people with warding techniques. Look at this.」

Günther snaps his fingers, and wards cover the faces of the soldiers who are readying their weapons.

Then the soldiers, who had been rolling their eyes to see what was going on, reached out with their mouths flapping as if they were grasping for something, followed by a slump to the ground and sprawl.

「What did you do?」

「Heh. It’s simple. I closed off the air with wards. They’re just suffering from not being able to breathe.」

「Eggh!」

Sam shouted at Günther, who was smiling a brilliant smile and doing something truly ghastly without a care in the world.

Meanwhile, the soldiers were struggling and stopped moving.

「Oops, we can’t just kill them.」

Günther snapped his fingers again, and the warding was lifted.

Sam finds one soldier still conscious, grabs him by the collar, and lifts him.

「Hey, there’s a dragon cub in this mansion, right? Where is it?」

「I don’t know! I was only told by the Master not to let any outsiders into the mansion.」

「Are you sure?」

「It’s true!」

「You’d know what happens if you’re lying, wouldn’t you?」

「I-I’m not lying! However, the Master is often in and out of that building. We are not even allowed to go near it!」

The soldier pointed to a building at the back of the compound.

From a quick glance, it was a one-story building, not very large.

(I wondered if they kept horses there, but hmmm, suspicious.)

「Thanks for the info, go sleep for a while.」

Punch the soldier in the abdomen to knock him out.

「The site is quite large. Besides the residence, there’s another building, as one would expect from the Marquis.」

「Sam! My house is much bigger! Oops, I forgot to tell you, I got you your room.」

「No need!」

Sam is dumbfounded by Günther’s nonchalant attitude, even though he has come to save the dragon child.

Meanwhile, the red dragon, who had no turn, was looking around the premises with a furrowed brow.

「Hey, that building looks suspicious to me, do you know where the kids are yet?」

「Over there. The smell is getting closer. I can smell my child and its magic from over there.」

She pointed to the building where we had gotten the information from the soldier.

(Well, yes. It would be risky to hide a dragon, even a child, in the mansion where one lives. Then it would be outside, right?)

It may be hidden somewhere else, but as long as the red dragon could smell and sense the magic, the children were probably here.

「Let’s go.」

「Mm.」

The dragon nodded and stepped forward to help her child

「Wait there!」

With a high-pitched, angry voice, a woman in a glittering dress appeared.

「Who is it, lady?」

「―――Oh, you…bandit-like people are having their way with me, but it’s over now. I will make you regret entering my house, this Marquis Gordon’s house, without permission!」

The heavily made-up woman was in her mid-forties.

She was holding a feathered fan in her hand and glaring at Sam and the others, with a gaggle of what appeared to be soldiers and wizards behind her.

(Maybe I spent a little too much time on this. But these people are not the enemy. Let’s just get the hell out of here and save the child.)

Sam clenched his fist and was about to kick the ground when someone grabbed his shoulder.

It’s the red dragon.

「Let me fight. I want to take this frustration out.」

「…Don’t kill.」

「I know!」

She gave a short reply and disappeared the next moment.

No, she is moving at blinding speed.

Even Sam could barely follow her with his eyes.

In her true dragon form, she was a complete power-type, but Sam was amazed at how her fighting style changed when she humanized.

In less than a minute, the soldiers brought by the Marquess were silenced.

They were not dead, just barely dead.

Some were crushed in all four limbs and moaning, while others were even lying on the ground with their chests caved in, gasping for air.

Not a single person had survived against the dragon.

「What? Huh? Huh?」

The Marquess did not understand what had happened.

When she came to her senses, she could only see the black and white of her eyes as her allies were annihilated.

「……Beating up people of this caliber is just the opposite, it’s annoying.」

The dragon, with a look of growing frustration on her face, returned to stand next to Sam.

No sympathy for the hostile soldiers.

It is bad enough that they serve a nobleman who does evil.

They should be thankful that they fought the dragon and weren’t killed.

「So, you are involved with Albert and Marquis Gordon’s illegal trade in demons and dragons, is that correct?」

At Sam’s question, the blue-faced marchioness lifted her lips and somehow smiled triumphantly.
