Fortunately we had plenty of targets . The garrison grounds were mostly unpaved with clumps of gra.s.s growing all over the place .

Maybe because she’d be able to show her real abilities as a former demon, Lady Saintess was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with motivation . Putting on a straw hat and working gloves she pulled out from G.o.d knows where, she gave off an impression of a professional whose job is to send the gra.s.s on their way .

We first visited the rear of Haizen’s residence . Since it was the back of the building it wasn’t meticulously cared for so I’ve been often conveniently nibbling on the gra.s.s here since yesterday .

―― Whereas this time we’d be purposely wasting it .

“Hey…uup!”

Lady Saintess had already begun vigorously plucking gra.s.s . Seeing the pulled by the roots gra.s.s, fl.u.s.tered, I had to suppress the drool hanging from my mouth . I shouldn’t . I didn’t come for a meal this time .

“I can’t let only Lady Saintess get her hands dirty…”

I steeled my resolve and set about removing the gra.s.s . However, I wasn’t able to nimbly grasp it with my claws . Inevitably I wound up uprooting the gra.s.s with my mouth .

“… I can’t . ”

The moment I held a bite in my mouth the taste of gra.s.s spread on my tongue . With the smell of fresh green gra.s.s tickling my nasal cavity, an instinct inside me whispered softly for me to chew and engulf it right away .

“You mustn’t! Don’t lose to the temptation Mr . Lizard! You’re making a face like you’re on the verge of losing to your appet.i.te!”

“U-uhh… But Lady Saintess, just think about it . At this point it’s already half-torture for me . To have to spit out food right after putting it in my mouth… Such a waste . Besides I’ll get hungry”

“Listen, you won’t become an Evil Dragon if you continue saying such weak spirited things, you know? It’s the only way to take back the magic power which went to Lady Rēko . ”

That’s right . Although a pity, I mustn’t forget that at this rate I’d be forced to go at full speed with berserk Rēko on a Demon King conquest .

Thus I finally resolved myself . Becoming a G.o.d of destruction, I gently let fall to the ground the gra.s.s I ripped up with my mouth .

“Fuu… How’s it Lady Saintess? Just now, was I fairly Evil Dragon like?”

“I also can’t really put my finger on how exactly an Evil Dragon should be like, but compared to the usual Mr . Lizard gave off a wild impression!”

“Then I’m glad . Well let’s go ahead and continue . ”

The me who overcame the wall of my conscience and appet.i.te began to dispose of gra.s.s in earnest shoulder to shoulder with Lady Saintess . The residence’s backyard covered in green very quickly was exposed to be the colour of earth .

Thereupon, a voice came from one of the estate’s windows .

“… S-Say, what are you doing, you two…?”

It was Sheina, who still was fervently trying to win over the mountain spirit by giving her a ride on her shoulders . Her face grew stiff, maybe because she froze in fear after seeing our figures single-mindedly focused on tearing out weeds .

Not good . We might’ve scared her .

This was where I should go and say “Were you overcome with dread, Sheina? This is my true figure . Carve the fear of Evil Dragon Rēvendia deep into your heart . ” However, if I did that I might traumatise the poor young girl .

When me and Lady Saintess were exchanging glances and thinking how should we patch things up, Rēko popped out her head out of the residence’s window frame . I ordered Rēko to keep an eye on the spirit just in case that the demons came to recapture her .

Then she fixedly stared at me and said with satisfaction .

“Today’s Evil Dragon Lord is much more malevolent than usual…”

Great, it transmitted to Rēko . After all this wasn’t a mistake . Now I only need a quick follow-up for Sheina――

“H-Hey, Evil Dragon Lord? I-If the weeds bother you that much I’ll have them cleaned up right away, there’s no need for you to do something like this!”
