Translator: “Pink Tea” Editor: ”Ryunakama”

The exploration squad of the archeology guild looked from the back as Axel finished the fight.

「Captain, that was……」

「To cut a storm… We just witnessed something insane. ……The moment he swung his sword I even saw a glimpse of a giant dragon.」

I felt like I witnessed the Dragon God.

「So this is the power an ex-hero, the power of the carrier……」

The mix of delight over the victory and the shock from what we just saw prevented us from thinking straight.

But that confusion was soon swept away by another surprise. That wasー

「Captain…… Look at that.」

「I know. ……Blue skies. For the first time in a long while. The sky that he brought back.」

The clouds that blocked the sky all these months dissipated.

Only clear blue skies were above us.

Killing the majin we return to the archeology guild.

「Welcome back, Axel. And Dragon Monarch Hydra.」

「Oh, my friends, you are back?」

Our comrades welcomed us back.

「Yeah, we are back.」

「We are baack!」

「I saw the message that came to the guild before you. Did you fight a majin? Good job, both of you.」

Daisy said while climbing onto my shoulders, and then began pressing her paws on them as if she was trying to give a massage.

「Haha, thanks, Daisy. Did anything happen in the town while we were fighting?」

Saki was the one to reply.

「Absolutely nothing. The biggest problem we had is that I couldn’t see your heroic deed. Aside from that, we didn’t receive any attacks. Rather, the weather improved. So the overall mood became better.」

「I see. All good then.」

Though we defeated the Majin, there was no way to know what is going on in the town.

Defeating an enemy only to lose a place to return would’ve been way too sad.

Well, since there is no damage, then it’s all good.

And while I thought thatー

「Axel Granz. You solved the problem that plagued our town.」

Came such a voice.

Turning to the source of the voice, to the warehouse, I saw the Snake God coming out of it.

「Oh, Snake God. Did you decide to come outside?」

「Yes. I heard that everyone is fighting, so I thought I have to do my share as well, so I was working on magic jugs and miraculous water. ……But it seems that was unnecessary since you defeated the majin that was the cause of all of this.」

「Well, it’s all thanks to Edgar, who located him.」

「Yes, of course, I’m grateful to Edgar and his team, but this is all thanks to your contribution. Please allow me to thank you from the very bottom of my heart.」

The snake god that approached us said.

Then, bending the body, making what appeared to be a bow.

「Thanks to you I also will be able to go to my original form.」

She then raised her head and looked at the sky.

Then, I noticed.

「Your skin, the color is changing?」

The color of the snake god’s scales was changing.

When we first met, and all the time until now, she was pure white.

But now, her scales had a beautiful tint of blue.

Almost like they were absorbing the color from the sky.

「Is this how it was originally?」

「Yes. It’s the color that my scales had to begin with. But without the sunlight, they gradually turn completely white. Now, let me present something that can be created only in this form.」

With those words, the snake god closed her eyes.

Then, she bent backward, exposing the base of her throat to the sky.

I already saw this. This is the same sequence of actions she used to create the Yang Scale previously. Howeverー

「Here. Please use it. The blue『Yang Scale』that you sought.」

This time, the ingot she produced looked as blue as if it was a cutout piece of the sky itself.

「This is the 『Yang Scale』infused with sunlight?」

「Yes. This color indicates a stable structure, making it a perfect material. Please use it as you please.」

Hearing these words, Daisy, who sat on my shoulder, put her paw on the ingot.

And then nodded confidently.

「This one should do. This time, my friend, we should have no problem with the repair!」

「Oh, glad to hear that. ……Thank you, Snake God.」

When I thanked her in return, the snake god, who now was covered in beautifully glittering blue and white scales, shook her head.

「It is us who should be thanking you, Axel Granz. You brought the blue sky to this town. Ah, how we missed it. No one but you could do it.」
