Chapter 376 Baha Family
The trial of Rimudo is to challenge the same path as the courage test, which should be passed if you want to have an audience, but without the protection by smell. In other words, just like Haruna and the others, the dragons will become enemies once you leave the first island. The starting point of this trial is on the fifth island, but in fact, it starts even before that. First of all, you have to cross the sea, where dragons will attack you, and reach the starting point. With the speed of a ship, it’s clear that it will be destroyed, so it’s impossible to borrow one from the island. Then, the only way is to do it with your own power. It is extremely difficult to swim to the fifth island on your own. Still, if you can’t do even this much, it’s the same as not being qualified to challenge the trial.
「Swim and run to reach the goal―― it’s like a triathlon!」
「It’s a pretty dangerous triathlon, though…. Wait, Wee, you tried it at that time!? Were you okay!?」
「I wasn’t okay…. Thinking back now, I’m embarrassed by how immature I was….」
When Weerel was very young, she received special education as a talented child, and she was proud and confident of her power. No one around her was more talented than her, and she was convinced that she was working harder for the future than anyone else. She thought that she was worthy to challenge this impregnable trial, which is said that no one has ever achieved.
「But the reality was cruel…. I managed to reach the starting point, the fifth island, by making full use of water magic…. However, I couldn’t go any further… so I regretfully gave up….」
「I think it’s amazing enough that you made it there alone when you were very young.」
「No…. The dragons on the sea and on the island… their strengths were completely different…. To be specific, it was like the difference between Kiel and King Dias….」
It’s a subtle and hard-to-understand expression.
「Well, Wee-chan at that time was at level 4 or 5 after all. You were strong enough to fight the children who protect the sea, but I think it was hard after landing.」
「If they were stronger than that, they would be as strong as the Four Heavenly Kings of the Sea Demons, right? Does that mean people at that level are common?」
「Hmm, I don’t know how strong those Four Heavenly Kings are. Ah, that’s right. I’ll make an easy-to-understand chart of our family.」
「「Huh?」」
Saying so, Satella brings a large sheet of paper and a brush. She moved the brush in an experienced manner, and in a blink of an eye, something that looked like a simplified chart was drawn
「Um, is it okay to look at it?」
「Sure, go ahead ♪」
「Then, excuse me….」

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
This chart shows the internal conditions of the Baha Family who controls the Dragon God’s Island and describes in a very easy-to-understand and friendly manner what kind of things are done by people at what level. The last part, where Chinatsu smiles wryly, is just endless writings of Satella’s emotions, but other than that, it can be used as a reference.
「Well, uh, hmm… i-it sure is easy to understand.」
「Yes…. Late marriage is a matter of concern for the country….」
「That’s where you’re worried about!?」
「Makam and Redon are level 5, so they are Ground Dragons…. I see~. Even I could understand this! Also, Satella-san and Rimudo-san had an arranged marriage, huh. That’s surprising!」
「That’s right~. At that time, Rimudo was so strong that he had never even tied his tail with a girl.」
「Tail…?」
Tying tails―― it’s an act of holding hands for dragons.
「Um, it might be too late to ask this now…. Is Rimudo-san’s trial that famous? I mean, even the young Weerel knew about it.」
「It is…. There are even posters about it on the walls of the shops on the islands…..」
「Eh, posters? Why?」
「Well, that’s simple. You see, Rimudo is quite the warrior type even if he’s like that. Since he became the Great Eight Demons, it seems that his opportunities to fight had increased. That’s a joyous thing, but he couldn’t just fight everyone since he has his honor as the Great Eight Demons, so he decided to narrow down the challengers to some extent. Even if it is just an audience, you need to pass the courage test, right? So, the trial started in a similar way to that and was announced grandly.」
‘Even if it’s to narrow down the challengers, no one can clear it if you raise the difficulty to that level, right? In fact, Wee said that no one has ever achieved it…’, Chinatsu secretly wondered so.
(But according to this chart, level 8 is the upper limit of the dragon that protects the island. It won’t be easy, but it won’t be an unreasonable battle, I guess…? If anything, the problem is after we arrived at Rimudo-san’s place. No, if Satella-san intrudes, she will be as much of a threat as Lily-san――)
Based on Satella’s information, Chinatsu imagined the trial that they would challenge tomorrow. From the fact that she doesn’t think that it’s unreasonable even though there are level 8 dragons, it seems that she has been corrupted considerably by Nell. Also, she doesn’t seem to be aware of it.
「Well, I will send you back tomorrow morning, so let’s take a bath and go to bed today. The hot water is ready, and I’ve laid out the futons in the next room, so feel free to use them.」
「Bath! Chinatsu-san, Wee-chan, let’s enter together!」
「W-Wait, Haruna. I haven’t sorted my thoughts yet!」
「Bath, it’s the healing of life….」
Haruna took the two and went straight to the bathroom.
