Re:Zero - Starting Life in Chaos.

"Click, click, boom—"

On the dragon's belly, Beichen stomped his feet lightly, and then countless unknown trees and vines pushed open the cracked and dry ground and climbed towards the body of the fire dragon.

After a while, the Flame Dragon was wrapped like a rice dumpling.

'Roar--'

When the fire dragon's last roar fell, even its mouth was tied together by vines.

He couldn't attack Beichen with his body, nor could he threaten Beichen by roaring.

The red dragon could only stare at Beichen with its only remaining eye.

Beichen naturally didn't care about this.

Looking at his masterpiece, Beichen touched his chin and said with some regret:

"Tsk tsk, what a pity. This fire dragon can breathe fire, otherwise we could put a ball gag in its mouth."

After sighing, Beichen jumped off the dragon's belly. After a few jumps, he came to Lelei and Gato who were still in a daze.

At this time, Lelei looked a little dusty, probably because of the bumpy escape process.

The originally neat blue-green sage robe also had many gray-black marks from smoke.

Although he was in a daze, his face remained expressionless.

The messy sky blue bob haircut, coupled with delicate facial features, gave people a silly and cute feeling, which made Beichen want to reach out and pinch the other person's face.

"Are you Master Cato?"

Turning his head, Beichen looked at Gato, who was also covered in dust, and asked.

Since Beichen and others had learned the common language of this world before entering the other world, they did not need external help to communicate.

Beichen's questioning woke the two from their dementia.

"It was this person... who saved me..." Looking at Beichen's handsome face, Leilai's eyes sparkled and she thought silently in her heart.

After waking up, Cato adjusted his tilted magic hat, suppressed his surprise, and responded:

"Thank you for your help, young warrior. I am Cato. Do you know me?"

"I guess so. I heard that you have a lot of books, so I wanted to find you to see if you can give me the book, or let me copy it."

After hearing Beichen's words, Gato narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice:

"You should know that knowledge is a valuable asset. You are not my apprentice, so I have no reason to lend them to you to copy, let alone give them to you."

"That's the theory." Beichen nodded. Gato's refusal was normal and he was not angry.

And Cato didn't say anything final, so it's clear that there's room for reversal.

"So you want to take me as your disciple?" Beichen asked.

Cato shook his head.

"Just kidding. I know myself well and I can't teach you anything."

"Then what do you mean?"

Hearing this, Cato did not answer immediately. Instead, he changed the subject and asked Beichen.

"Young man, are you from that side of the door?"

"Oh no, I'm from the other side of the sea."

"Ok?"

"Oh, sorry, I was distracted for a moment." Beichen smiled awkwardly, put away his joking intention, and nodded, "Yes, if you mean the gate to another world."

"Oh, I knew that, apart from a limited number of priests, there could be no super-powerful people like you in this world." Cato smiled proudly.

"Aren't there still the academic city of Rendir and the Holy Eldant Empire?"

"If they really had such ability, the Flame Dragon would have been destroyed long ago."

"That's true."

Beichen nodded and didn't ask any further questions.

"So, what do you want? Go to the world behind the door."

"No." Gato shook his head. "When I get old, it's hard to leave my hometown. Now that the Flame Dragon has been dealt with by you, it's better for me to return to Gota Village."

As he spoke, Gato looked at Lelei who was staring at Beichen.

Feeling Gato's gaze, Lelei asked in confusion:

"Master, what's wrong?"

Without answering Lelei, Gato's eyes dimmed and he looked at Beichen again.

"Lelei is a genius. My abilities are limited and I can no longer guide her."

"I hope you can take her out and expose her to a wider world."

"I know that your world not only has magicians, but also various strange and bizarre abilities."

"Master..." When she heard that Cato wanted to hand her over to someone else, a trace of nervousness flashed across Lelai's calm face. Just as she was about to say something, Cato raised his hand to interrupt her.

“Don’t be so hasty to express your opinion, Lelei. This is the last thing I can do for you. Haven’t you always wanted to become a magician and a great sage? Now is the best opportunity.”

"But it's also possible here, Master."

"Haha, how long do you have to wait? Will you be as old as me?"

"Do not……"

"okay."

Seeing that Lelei was about to continue speaking, Gato stood on tiptoe, raised his hand and patted the girl on the head, saying comfortingly:

"There's nothing to be sad about. When you finish your studies and come back, come and see me again."

"Hehehe, I hope that by then you'll have a curvy figure like your sister... Oh, magic is a sacred thing, it's not for you to abuse."

When talking about excitement, Cato's face turned red, and he twisted his body and gestured. But he didn't feel happy for long, and a series of weak icicles hit his face.

"Master, have you calmed down?"

"Calm down, calm down. Oh~ You're really a girl who can't take a joke."

The magic attack stopped, and the lecherous old man Cato breathed a sigh of relief. He straightened his messy wizard robe, and when he looked at Beichen again, he had returned to his original serious appearance.

"Well, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."

"It's okay, you guys continue." Beichen waved his hand, not caring about the interaction between the two.

"Haha, no, let's get this settled quickly so I can feel at ease."

"How about this? I can give you all the books, but you have to promise me to take Lelei out and teach her how to practice."

"It's no problem taking her out." Beichen nodded.

Although Gato's request was a little beyond Beichen's expectations, fortunately it was not a difficult task, it was just a matter of taking someone out.

But Beichen felt it was inappropriate to be Teacher Lelai.

Because Leilei is a traditional long-range magician, Beichen's combat system is not suitable for her.

What's more, he had no intention of taking in any apprentices.

If he had this intention, he should have been the one to guide Sora and Sagiri instead of entrusting it to Kato and the others.

After thinking for a while, Beichen spoke again: "There is one thing I want to make clear in advance. I am not suitable to be her teacher. At most I can guide her occasionally."

"That……"

"Don't worry, I have a friend who is more suitable to be Shileilai's teacher than me."

Originally, Gato was a little disappointed that Beichen refused to be Lelai's teacher, but after hearing the following words, he became happy again.

Although it is not Beichen himself, a friend of a strong man must not be too bad.

"Can you tell me about that person's situation? So I can have a better idea of ​​what's going on." Cato asked.

Hearing this, Beichen stroked his chin and said in a somewhat strange tone:

"A great magician who has lived for more than a thousand years, and an elf 'big' sister."

When talking about "big", Beichen even emphasized the word.
