A boy raised by a demon king and a dragon king seems to be peerless in his school life.

Volume 11 Chapter 28   Unexpected joiner

The Magical Airship ‘Blue Empress’ Soaring Through the Sky.

Ruisha, Sharo, and Iris stood on its deck.

“Is this… alright?”

“Yes, please.”

Sharo said this and handed a green gem to Ruisha.

It was the legacy of the hero, the ‘Slumbering Emeraldite-Dormitory Sapphire.’ This jewel, once part of a necklace, harbored a powerful sealing effect.

In essence, Ruisha and the others had visited Lasisco to obtain this.

“Is this…”

Ruisha cautiously took the gem in his hand.

As he did, a faint light emanated from the gem, flowing into Ruisha. It was a sensation akin to a warmth penetrating his core. Ruisha had experienced this sensation twice before.

“Thank you, Sharo. I’ll make sure to return this.”

“Yes. Has the crucial seal been lifted?”

“Yeah, I think it’s probably okay.”

The legacy of the hero contained the power of the legendary hero, Orger. When all of them were gathered, the seal of the Infinite Prison would be broken.

They had found three legacies so far. Ruisha couldn’t tell how many there were in total, but she felt that they were definitely getting closer to their goal.

“How many more do we need to collect to rescue Testarossa-sama?”

“I don’t know, but I don’t think it’s too far. We need to unlock the hero’s seal as soon as possible.”

Ruisha spoke to Iris in this manner.

And then,

“I see. So that’s why you’ve been collecting the hero’s legacies.”

Suddenly, a third voice echoed on the deck.

This voice wasn’t Wolf’s. Ruisha turned around in surprise, wondering who it was. And there stood a person who astonished them.

“Hey. Sorry for boarding without permission.”

“Huh, Bat-san!?”

With a raised hand, the one who greeted them was Captain Bat, the pirate king they had parted ways with at sea.

Ruisha and the others were greatly surprised by the appearance of someone who shouldn’t be there.

“Why is Captain Bat here!?”

“Well, you know, I did try to move on. But my life force was too strong, so no matter how long I waited, I couldn’t move on. It’s awkward to face Cindy after we said our goodbyes, too.”

Bat responded nonchalantly.

Ruisha was astonished at how chaotic this person was.

“If I can’t rely on Cindy, there’s no one else I know. So, I’ll have to rely on you guys.”

“You’ll rely on us… but Captain Bat, you’ll stand out if you enter the capital!”

Bat’s appearance was unmistakably that of a skeleton.

Typically, skeletons were monsters that despised the living. If he appeared in the town, it would undoubtedly cause a commotion.

“I won’t make such a blunder. I have a magical disguise tool I used back in my pirate days. With this, no one will recognize me.”

Bat took out a necklace and infused it with magic.

As a result, the skeletal head was fleshed out with magic, transforming into a normal human face. The expression changed appropriately, so there was no way they would be discovered.

“But if that’s the case, couldn’t you just live a normal life without following us? If meeting Cindy is awkward, you don’t have to go to the sea…”

“Ruisha, I like you guys. Judging from what I’ve heard earlier, it seems like you guys have gotten involved in something quite serious. It’s normal to want to help you guys, right?”

Bat said this a bit awkwardly.

“Could it be that you came with us for our sake?”

“Hey, hey, Ruisha. Asking that is so uncouth, you know? All we need to do is clench our fists.”

With a thud, a large fist was presented.

Ruisha bumped his own fist against Bat’s.

“Thank you, from now on I’ll depend on you”

“I’ve always been a dependable guy. Of course, that hasn’t changed. I feel like I’m aboard a massive ship.”

While looking at Ruisha, Bat spoke with a joyful expression.
