Chapter 8: Conversation with a Wolf

Our chase through the skies had started. I rode the lead dragon and gave directions when necessary. That said, I didn’t need to redirect us very often, so I spent most of my time on standby.

Around two hours had passed like this. After going over the prairies, the scenery beneath us changed to that of a forest. We still had some distance between us and the Dimension Door. This seemed like it was going to take a while.

“It sure is shaky up here...” I muttered, somewhat disconcerted.

This was my second time riding a dragon through the skies. That didn’t mean I’d gotten accustomed to it, though. This was different from riding an airplane; there were no seats on a dragon’s back. We were directly exposed to the wind and our view was so high up that I could easily picture falling to death. What’s more, each flap of the dragon’s wing shook us up and down with a nauseating amount of force. Maybe this was even worse than last time. Once in a while, it felt like I was falling several meters through the air. Each time, the blood drained from my face. Considering that my last ride had been atop Thaddeus, I thought maybe he was used to having people ride him after his travels with Fukatsu Aketora.

“Your face is so stiff, Master.”

“This is one thing I can’t get used to...”

Lily had a firm hold on me from behind to make sure I didn’t fall off. She leaned forward and peaked at my face, a slightly pleasant sensation pressing against my back.

“Are you feeling sick? If you need a break, then say so, okay?” she said.

“I’m fine.”

We’d already gotten complaints about motion sickness and fatigue from the exploration team, who weren’t used to flying either, and had taken a break for them. There was no use being reckless, but I had to endure to a certain extent. Having read my thoughts, Lily didn’t push the topic and turned to the side.

“How about you, Berta?”

“Of course I’m fine,” a tremendously stiff voice replied. It was hard to read a wolf’s expression, but she clearly lacked energy.

“Looks like Berta’s in the same boat as you, Master.”

“That’s not true,” Berta protested.

“You’re tucking your tail,” Lily said, pointing out something that was far easier to read than a person’s face.

“Animals who run on the ground have poor affinity with the sky,” Berta said, averting her eyes.

“Ayame looks like she’s having fun, though,” Lily retorted.

“She’s...an exception. She enjoys everything,” Berta said.

Without anything else to do right now, Shiran was looking after Ayame. Held against Shiran’s chest, the little fox narrowed her eyes against the wind. Once in a while, she wriggled out to try and climb on Shiran’s head and was warned about it. She didn’t seem the least bit scared.

“In a sense, she’s unrivaled,” Berta said, sighing. There was a bit of a smile behind her voice. Perhaps the conversation was distracting her from the flight. “Now that I think of it, it’s been bothering me somewhat.
