Reincarnated Devil’s Strongest Hero Training Plan ~The baby he picked up has grown up so well that his father is confused~
Chapter 70 Let’s go back a little in time…
The time rolls back a little, and Mermel continues to wander around various places, visiting a desert country somewhere in the world, visiting the mythical underwater kingdom, causing mischief in island nations and magical kingdoms, and accumulating small achievements everywhere…
Finally, on this day, Ars celebrated his eleventh birthday.
By this time, Gaius had already returned from summer vacation, and along with their pet Ballus, they continued to celebrate Ars’s birthday grandly.
“Congratulations, Ars! You’re finally eleven, how time flies!”
“Congratulations, Ars. Your mother is happiest knowing that you’re growing up healthy and right.”
That’s the voice of Ars’s father, Kakyu, and his mother, Elsa.
Seeing the grown-up Ars, who has only three more years until adulthood, they both smile softly, their emotions perhaps deeper than most, having watched over Ars from every angle as their son.
“Hey, Ars. You’ve grown big, huh! And you even got yourself such a cute girlfriend! I went on a journey to find a wife too, but this time, it was a complete failure. Hahaha!”
Gaius speaks of himself, a man who scattered all such events and chances of tying the knot due to his own damn seriousness.
But he doesn’t seem to regret it even a bit. Now, he seems more interested in imparting his experiences and knowledge to his younger friend Ars, rather than pursuing his own happiness.
And finally…
“Ars…! Happy birthday! This, um, chocolate, I made it! If you want, please have some. I really, um, put quite some effort into it…”
“Thank you, Hades. I’m so happy!”
“R-really!? Haha…”
Hades, appearing at the end, hands over a chocolate wrapped in a pink heart shape, her expression melting away.
It seems she made this chocolate specifically for this birthday to finally convey her deep affection.
Despite everything, Ars is throwing suggestive lines like “It’s delicious” or “Hades, you’d make a great wife!”.
Of course, hearing such words, Hades turns bright red, feeling her heart racing. But then, perhaps feeling embarrassed by the directness, she turns away and says, “Y-yeah! Of course! Who do you think I am?!” showing her tough side.
Hades, who can’t be honest in weird situations, and Ars, who is just too straightforward. This is indeed youth.
While having a lively time, the low-class devil who was throwing a birthday party at the magical castle in the southern continent finally found the right timing to bring up a certain proposal.
“All right, Ars. Let’s get started with your first trial at eleven. After the battle with the Three Demon Generals, you’ve been rapidly improving your skills. You must be eager to test your own strength by now, right? This time, I’ve picked out a challenger for you in the Great Forest of the Southern Continent.”
Ars’s father, Kakyu, speaks.
In the depths of the Southern Continent, a wicked dragon has appeared, wreaking havoc on the forest ecosystem.
This dragon, originally not native to this continent, is said to have come from the untouched lands of the Eastern Continent. However, the problem lies in the strength of this wicked dragon.
Ordinarily, Attribute Dragons are monsters classified as S-Class Middle Rank, impossible to defeat by human hands. However, this wicked dragon harbors a unique power of darkness among Attribute Dragons, boasting an intensity equivalent to S-Class Top Rank.
One that even the Four Heavenly Kings of Cockroach, who once appeared, had to exert considerable strength against.
Ars’s father seems to be instructing Ars and Hades to cooperate and defeat this monster together.
“Well, the wicked dragon is just a test of your abilities. Defeating it is the goal, but not an absolute necessity. For this occasion, I’ll take care of things in the end, so don’t hold back and give it your all.”
“Got it, Dad! This is like what you always call a bonus stage, right?”
Of course, despite being referred to as a “defeat,” this is more like a present at a birthday party. It’s an attraction under the supervision of Ars’s father.
Even if it’s a wicked dragon that attacks humans and monsters indiscriminately, wreaking havoc on the ecosystem, if push comes to shove, Ars’s father can handle the defeat or simply send it back to the Eastern Continent.
That’s why it’s literally a test of skill.
There was no reason to feel anxious at all.
“Hehehe… I don’t know what you’re thinking, but underestimating us, who have teamed up, Ars and I, to take down just one dragon, you’re quite mistaken, old man. I’ll show you what we’re capable of.”
“That’s right, Hades. This is our chance to test the extent of our power.”
However, despite it being just an attraction, these two were fiercely competitive. Though they knew it wasn’t a real crisis, their determination was unwavering.
“All right! Looks like we’re all pumped up and ready to go. Let’s set off right away. This time it’s a mini expedition with Dad, Ars, and Hades. It’ll probably be a day trip, so Elsa, Gaius, and Ballus, I’m counting on you to take care of the castle.”
“Yes, have a safe trip, Husband.”
“We’ll keep everything in order while you’re away, Master.”
“Groooan.”
After bidding farewell to the stay-at-home group with various responses, the mini expedition group departed through teleportation, leaving the party venue behind.
And then…
“Hmhmhm… Today, like every day, it’s fire time! The flames burning through the ley lines of this great forest are exceptional. …But maybe it’s a bit too much? Right now, I feel like I could burn anything. No, I WILL burn everything! FHOooOoO!”
In the depths of a certain large forest where the ecosystem is changing due to the invasion of a wicked dragon, a mysterious young girl is enjoying a grand campfire, roasting the meat of a giant monster over the flames.
In this dire situation where the paths of this dangerous young girl and the mini expedition group are yet to cross, what will be the fate of the wicked dragon exposed to such a crisis…?
