I, Kaoru, once the ⓑⓔⓔⓟ— of ⓑⓔⓔⓟ—, possessor of countless ⓑⓔⓔⓟ—. I would face the fanatical gazes and shriek of my ⓑⓔⓔⓟ— everyday, but I remained steadfast. I have a heart of steel and is capable of performing the most graceful dance even while naked before their intense gaze.

No one can make me blush for even a moment.

However, I found that I was still too naive. Compared to my mother’s passionate gaze that’s as hot as the sun, their gaze might as well be a refreshing breeze.

Even my heart of steel would melt if exposed to her gaze for no longer than a second.

Those one hundred and eleven thousand clothes were synonymous to one hundred and eleven thousand igniters, causing her gaze to become more fervent with each passing second.

I could smell something sweet coming off my body…

I urgently realized at this moment; that I need to find a way to get out of this hell of shame, else I would be cooked sooner or later.

It is quite fortunate that the birth festival is about to begin soon. Otherwise mother wouldn’t stop her clothes-changing spree.

That gave me a chance for a breather. Tonight… I must definitely find a way to escape the shame hell tonight…

Otherwise… I can’t even begin to fathom my fate at that time.

“Alright, it is time, let us go,” mother said gently as she put her hand on my shoulder.

She didn’t do anything especially conspicuous, but the surrounding scenery changed again.

However, she didn’t teleport directly to the venue, but in front of a tunnel exit.

Mother lightly pushed me and said, “Go on now, that’s your party. Go and take a good look at them. Although they act a little recklessly, they are still your companions, your most reliable support.”

I nodded with uncertainty before walking out of the wide cave.

As I exit the cave, all that registered in my vision is darkness.

“Flash!” A lighting similar to those spotlights used in theater suddenly lit up on a scholarly figure. That figure belonged to Akarin who got scared-ⓢⓗⓘⓣⓛⓔⓢⓢ by mother just now.

He slowly lifted his head and used a rhythmic tone to speak, “Dragons, they are the race with the strongest individual power. Although our race has low population, we aren’t afraid of any other races. However, there is no such thing as perfection. Our strength comes at the cost of low fertility rate. As a result, the dragon race has the lowest population in this world.”

“That’s why, the birth of a new dragon is a grand occasion to us. We will hold a grand birth festival for them to celebrate their birth.”

“And tonight, the newborn dragon we are holding birth festival for is not just any ordinary dragon. She has incubated in the egg for twenty years, lightning descended during her shell break period, she took the form of human upon birth. And her dragon might is not to be treated lightly either, she is none other than…”

Flash! Another spotlight was directed at me.

“Her Highness the princess!”

“Roaaaaaaaaaar!” Countless dragon roar resounded in the darkness.

“Tonight, let us invite Her Highness the princess to join us with our warmest welcome! Salute!”

W- wow… they even have something as high level as a salute… heh-heh, no wonder they are dragons…

“Peeeeeeeeew!” Spheres of fire flew up from the surrounding hilltops. After the spheres reached certain heights, they exploded and the flames scattered like countless shooting stars.

So… pretty… but only fireworks as pretty as this can move me, Akatod (omitted the rest), isn’t that so?

With the light from the fireworks, I was finally able to see the surroundings. The mountain was filled with huge dragons all over the place. They numbered more than this morning, this could be the entire population of the dragons.

A warmth I’ve never before experienced welled-up in my heart.

“This is the first present we’ve prepared for the princess,” Akarin’s aged face looked much more dazzling under the spotlight.

Wait… what is that thing… behind the spotlight…

I wasn’t able to see anything due to the darkness a moment ago, but with the lighting from the fireworks, I only noticed the huge shadow hidden behind the spotlight.

I turned my head with mechanical motion and found a huge figure not too far away from me. The eyes at one side of his head fixedly stared at me, and those glint in his eyes almost caused my cheeks to be streaming with tears…

Upon noticing that I have spotted him, he grinned at me and showed his shining white fangs.

How did the spotlight come out of his eyes? Could this be what they call the flash of the eyes?

You really can do whatever you please with magic.

“Down there is the most outstanding musician of the dragon race, Atlas Beldo. He will present us with a graceful ensemble!”

There are musicians among the dragons? That’s really unexpected.

A man with formal attire was spotlighted in the next moment. The funny thing was that the attire was on the verge of bursting due to all the muscles.

He behaved like a real conductor as he first faced me and offered a bow. Then he turned around and lightly flung the baton in his hand. A few more spotlights lit up and illuminated a dozen or more juvenile dragons. The juvenile dragons lined up neatly like in real orchestra.

The conductor lightly waved his baton and brought out beautiful sounds that’s suspected to be caused by sonic boom.

The juvenile dragon looked up and moving music poured down in torrents…

“Roar!”

“Roar!”

“Roar!”

“Ro- ro- ro- roar!”

I don’t know what to say, nor do I know how to retort…

But there’s still something I have to say…

Why is the conductor’s baton a few meters long?! Why are there sonic booms when he’s conducting?! Why is there only a single word in their chorus?!

Furthermore, these juveniles are obviously assembled at the last moment! They couldn’t even sing in synchrony! Why did they choose juvenile dragons in the first place? They are obviously disorganized and infighting has already begun…. Look, those two in the center are already fighting, oi!

Pow! Pow! The conductor calmly used the baton to knock out the two dragons. Then a huge claw extended from the darkness to drag them off the stage…

Alright… I know why he’s using such a long baton now… you don’t need to demonstrate to me anymore…
