Even if I transform, I will never be captured.

"Sasha, you've fallen."

With an adorable baby voice, like any little girl, she wasn't good at speaking long, coherent sentences. The little girl rushed into Satella's arms, but because she was so small, she could only hug Satella's waist.

What should have been a very heartwarming scene turned into something strange in Emilia's eyes.

Because she knew.

This little girl is a dragon.

A genuine dragon!

When Satella summoned such an adorable little girl in the throne room, the atmosphere in the entire hall was extremely strange.

If it weren't for the fact that some people were mindful of their status, they probably would have burst out laughing long ago.

But when the young girl transformed into a dragon at Satella's request, revealing her sharp fangs, everyone fell silent.

Immediately afterwards, the ten old men from the Wise Men's Society knelt on the ground, trembling with fear.

—From then on, no one dared to doubt Satella's identity, nor did anyone dare to disrespect her.

Reinhard might not be afraid of dragons, but what truly frightened him was the power that Satella revealed that day, a power capable of destroying the world.

The morning meeting ended there, but to be honest, Emilia still felt a little uneasy.

She found it hard to connect the ferocious creature of a dragon with the little girl snuggling in Satella's arms.

...Oh, she's not nestled in her sister's arms anymore. Her older sister, who has put down her phone, is now rubbing her face against the little girl's like a lovesick woman.

The adorable older sister, with a silly smile on her face, nuzzled the face of the cute little girl.

That scene...

how to say.

So heartwarming and adorable!

"Pfft—"

With her delicate little hands covering her lips and her silver hair swaying, Emilia smiled happily.

"Lia-chan, what are you laughing at?"

Looking up at that smile from below was dazzling. Satella was stunned for a while before she came to her senses and asked this question.

"It's nothing, I just feel so good to have met my sister. It feels like my life has suddenly become much happier."

Satie tugged at Emilia's sleeve and said, "Eek~ Emilia, that's so cheesy. In that case, let's do something more fun."

"Big sister..."

Although Emilia had gotten somewhat used to Satella's personality after spending time with her, she still couldn't help but sigh when she heard her say that.

Her own sister, when facing outsiders, always had such a radiant and dignified demeanor that Emilia admired.

But in private, he becomes adorably silly and says some naughty, embarrassing things.

"Sasha..."

The white-haired girl gently tugged at Satella's sleeve.

"What's wrong, Kanna-chan?" Satella asked with a smile, looking down at her.

I'm hungry.

“Hmm…” Satella turned her gaze to Emilia, who was more familiar with the place.

"The kitchen started preparing lunch a long time ago, but since it's a banquet for the esteemed dragon, it will definitely take quite a while."

Emilia replied somewhat uncertainly, "But so much time has passed, so it's probably soon."

"Did you hear that, Connor? Lunch will be ready soon, so please bear with it for a little longer."

"Gurgle..."

Kanna lowered her head, pitifully touching her little belly, and then suddenly raised her head, staring at Parker flying in the air.

"Hehe, it seems even dragons can't resist my cute appearance?" Parker said narcissistically, rubbing his face with his paws.

In response to his narcissism, Kanna's mouth gaped open.

"Awoo—"

Connor swallowed Parker whole.

"……………………"

Satella and Emilia, stunned by the sudden turn of events, finally reacted after a second or two and pounced on Kanna.

"Wait, you can't eat that—!!!"

……

……

It took Satella and Emilia a lot of effort to rescue Parker from the 'dragon's mouth'.

This was largely thanks to Parker's own strength; otherwise, he would have been crushed and digested by the dragon's sharp teeth and stomach acid long ago.

Even so, Parker was in a very sorry state.

"I'm sorry, Kanna is still young and doesn't know any better," Satella apologized on Kanna's behalf.

"No, it's okay, I'm still alive and well..." Parker chuckled dryly, though he was actually quite bothered by it.

However, he also knew that expressing his dissatisfaction was completely useless. One dragon was terrifying enough, not to mention that there was an even more terrifying Satella standing behind it.

"Connor-chan, you can't eat random things anymore, okay?"

Satella made Connor sit on the lawn, her face stern, and scolded her like a disobedient schoolchild.

However, judging from Kanna's bewildered expression, Satella knew that her words were a jumbled mess of words.

That's right, the person she summoned this time was Kanna from "Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid".

It's not about borrowing abilities, but rather a summoning based on a mercenary nature.

Summoned creatures will naturally have a certain degree of affinity towards the summoner. This affinity is not very effective for people from certain chaotic and evil factions, or for people with mature values.

But for a naive young dragon like Kanna, she immediately regarded Satella as her closest person.

The reason for hiring Kanna instead of other more powerful dragons is twofold: firstly, Kanna is cute, and secondly, Kanna's wishes are relatively simple.

Hired by: Kannakamui.

Wish: I hope to have a satisfying and delicious meal.

Duration: 10 days.

Chapter 39: Unexpected Developments

Satella and her companions, who were whiling away the time on the lawn, didn't have to wait long before a maid came to inform them that it was time for their meal.

Page 57

It's the same banquet hall as before.

However, unlike the quiet private environment before, this time there was quite a commotion inside even before I stepped through the door, indicating that there were quite a few people inside.

Satella's little face scrunched up like a bun.

However, Emilia, who had no sense of atmosphere at all, simply took Satella's hand and pulled her inside.

In an instant, all eyes turned toward them... To be precise, at first everyone stared at Kanna's face, and then slowly turned their gaze toward Satella.

However, one gaze remained fixed on Satella's face the entire time...

"Hey, Barus!"

"The pronunciation is completely wrong!"

"Velus?"

"Where did this 'wei' come from? The correct pronunciation is Subaru!"

Although she was trying her best to make sarcastic remarks, just by looking at the girl's smiling face, Natsuki Subaru knew that Satella was deliberately being sarcastic.

but……

Honestly, it felt pretty good?

"Well, it doesn't matter anyway. In short..." Satella looked serious and smiled as she thanked Subaru Natsuki: "Thank you so much for what happened in the Royal Hall earlier."

In a moment of impulsiveness, I blurted out, "Who will slap him for me?" Only after saying that did I realize that I had forgotten the old man's noble status.

To be honest, if Subaru Natsuki hadn't intervened, Satella would have been in a real predicament.

"I should be the one to say thank you, since Satella-chan saved my life."

Scratching his head, Natsuki Subaru, with a shy expression under Satella's adorable gaze, said, "Besides, just seeing Satella's smile is more than enough of a reward."

"So selfless..."

Satella covered her lips with her fingers, a look of stunned admiration on her face: "You're such a good person."

Natsuki Subaru: "..."

I have this feeling that I've been rejected, is it just my imagination?

Judging from the goddess's adorable, bewildered expression... it must be my imagination.

"But why were you in the royal hall back then?" Satella asked, since Subaru Natsuki shouldn't have been there at all.

"Let me explain that."

Approaching with an impeccable, cheerful smile was Reinhard, the Kingdom's Sword Saint.
