The journey of dragon transformation starting from Demon Slayer

Thinking of this, Tazmi glanced at Hermes and said, "Isn't Miss Asfi with you?"

"You actually used the reward I gave you to secretly come to a place like this. It seems like you are quite courageous..."

Watched by the young man's thoughtful eyes, Hermes' mouth twitched.

"Uh...haha...don't tell me what happened here..."

"What? Are you afraid that your image of being wise and powerful will be shattered in front of the members?"

After being scolded by the young man, Hermes scratched his hair in embarrassment.

"That's not the case... After all, I know what I look like in the eyes of the members..."

Rarely showing a look of embarrassment, Hermes seemed a bit free and easy at this time.

"By the way, instead of me, let's talk about you first..."

"After all, I really didn't expect someone like you to come to a place like this."

Showing an excited smile, Hermes put his arm around Tazmi's shoulders affectionately.

"Have you met any girl you like? You can tell me about it..."

"..."

--------

I am having this dream again. I’ve done it countless times so far.

It seems to have started more than ten days ago, right? It was also from that time that the shadow of that person suddenly broke into her mind.

She didn't know the man's name or what he looked like. But she knew that she longed for that heroic figure in her dream.

That is not the protagonist in a fairy tale book, but a precious image that can actually be seen.

She could have such a dream every time she took a break.

His magical experiences couldn't help but fascinate her, and his every move was even more shocking.

Save others. The so-called heroes should all exist like this.

And the world outside is really wonderful and exciting.

Where will her hero be?

But for such a lowly person, no hero would come to rescue her.

What right does she have to long for a hero of her own when she is here and dirty?

"Hello? Why are you in a daze again, Haruhime."

Suddenly, a shout woke up the girl who was in a daze.

Looking at the graceful woman who made the sound, Haruhime opened her mouth.

"Aisha...I..."

"Hey~ You must be thinking about dreaming again, right?"

The Amazon woman with long, silky hair sighed. She was seen holding her slender arms on her brown waist. Although her face was full of helplessness, her eyes revealed a gentleness that was extremely rare for this race.

"Um..."

In response to Ayesha's inquiry, the girl called Haruhime did not deny it, but nodded playfully.

"This situation has been going on for more than ten days, right?"

"Ever since you started using 'that', you've often fallen into a daze like this."

Looking at the fox girl sitting obediently on the tatami like a noble princess, Ayesha couldn't help but think about Haruhime's current changes in her heart.

About ten days ago, Haruhime told her that a man often appeared in her mind.

At first she thought the perverted fox was thinking about men and laughed at her for her new love. Unexpectedly, this situation has continued to this day.

Obviously this has not happened in the past five years. It seems that the reason why she often dreams about men now must be 'that' thing.

Gradually confirming the thoughts in her mind, Ayesha couldn't help but think of the mysterious magic item called the 'ace' by the goddess Ishtar.

According to the goddess's dictation, the emergence of this thing will change the pattern of forces in the lower world, and its importance can be called the 'trump card' of the family.

I heard that this thing can not only help her defeat the family of her arch-enemy, the goddess Freya. It is even possible to help the Familia easily complete one of the three most impossible tasks, which is the crusade against the black dragon.

You must know that it is something that even Zeus and the Hera Familia have not been able to accomplish. But now she said it as if it was something she could do easily.

And judging from the time, the thing appeared more than ten days ago, which coincided with the time when Haruhime started dreaming.

Thinking of this, Ayesha couldn't help turning her head to look at the direction of the headquarters, as if she saw an ordinary wooden box stored in a hidden room.

Now the family's 'ace' is placed in it, and this is the real reason why she looks there.

It is worthy of the name of the "ace" in the goddess's mouth. Its original true identity is actually an emerald green gem. Its specific origin is unknown. It was only discovered by the goddess Isi after returning from the port city of Melun and doing many robbery missions. The tower told me that there was such a thing.

Then based on research, they discovered that this was a special magic item that could further enhance the effect of Haruhime's magic.

Just how special it is can be understood by comparing it with Haruhime's magic manifested in the past.

The magic manifested by the fox girl named Haruhime is called the "Ten Thousand Treasure Hammer". She joined the "Ishtar Familia" five years ago and the special magic manifested through the blessing of a gift.

The effect of the ability is to increase the level. The activation target is limited to one person, and the effect lasts for fifteen minutes.

From a magical point of view, Haruhime's magic is an extremely special and rare magic.

It is so special that it can forcibly raise the adventurer's level, and even surpasses many rearguard assistance magics such as healing magic from an auxiliary point of view.

You must know that defensive magic can be replaced by equipment, and healing magic can be replaced by recovery potions. But only improving strength is not enough. There is no shortcut for adventurers on this path.

You must know that there is a rumor in Orario that it is very difficult for ordinary adventurers to manifest magic, and most people can only make a difference in this dangerous industry when they reach Level 2.

For these people, basically one magic is enough to burn high incense, not to mention the special magic that can increase the level.

This kind of magical Haruhime has already appeared at Level 1, and it can be said to be an important unit comparable to the strategic level.

In the Familia game for the past five years, Haruhime has always played a very mysterious and important role, and helped the goddess Ishtar deceive everyone in Orario and wipe out a large number of hostile Familia.

Her magic "Ten Thousand Treasures Hammer" plays an important role here.

As for the ability of the "Ace", which increases magic, the specific effect is to increase Haruhime's level again, and increase the level-upping characteristics by one more level.

In the past, Haruhime's magic effect was increased by one level. If you use magic on her, she will change from Lv.3 to Lv.4.

Now if Haruhime uses the "Ten Thousand Treasure Hammer" with the "Ace Card" against her, then she can jump from Level 3 to Level 5. It can be said that she has entered the top ranks of first-line adventurers.
