Feeling something above, Acnologia looked at the sky, but he found nothing. It was a strange feeling yet familiar '... Someone was watching...' he thought.
Howver, Acnologia has more pressing matter to attend to, he now have an army of Orcs defeated and whole lot of after battle clean up where the Dryads requested a meeting between the Heads of every village to discuss the future of the village and the Orcs.
Meanwhile, in another location, flying in the sky, the Scarlet Haired woman had a thoughtful expression "...I am sure that man was Acnologia, However he feels very strange than what I know of him..." What she has seen was out of the world "Acnologia is no leader, he kills anything that even remotely has a relationship with Dragons...yet he is saving Lizardmen?"
On her way, she passed over Acnologia's village, it was morning and everyone was out to work.
Irene though for a moment before she descended and stepped into the Village, everyone had their eyes on her but since they sensed no hostility they didn't mind her and Acnologia-sama said to not attack humans and try to be nice to them.
On that note, Rigurdo saw Irene come down and he dashed to her like lightning with a serious face. Just when he was in front of her, his face wore the brightest smile in the world "How can I serve you, lady?" He said.
"Uh..." Irene was taken back for a moment"Yeah, My name is Irene. I was passing by and saw your village, It was my first time seeing a monster village of this size." She said.
Rigurdo chuckled "Kuhaha! I completely understand, our Village is founded by Acnologia-sama. I assure you that you will be treated with the greatest hospitality." He said. "Let me guide you around the Village."
"That will not be needed, I will just take a look here and there then go, don't want to waste your time."
Rigurdo laughed and spoke "Absolutely not, I Rigurdo promised Acnologia-sama to take care of the Village, I can not fail him by not taking care of our guest, such act must not be allowed." He had a ferocious expression, burning with passion.
Even Irene sweat dropped at him 'What is that Dragon feeding these guys?' she thought. "Then I will have to trouble you." She said politely.
"Follow me please!!" Rigurdo said.
Irene followed Rigurdo around the village, she saw the ongoing housing, farms, playgrounds for children, and training arena for everyone. But what caught her eyes how these monsters had this happy go lucky personality, as long as she remembered, monsters weren't that kind to strangers, and even to other monsters, yet she is seeing a lot of different monsters hanging around here.
All of that was cool and okay, but...she can not take it anymore.
'Why do they keep speaking about him a lot!!' Irene shouted in her head.
Acnologia-sama Acnologia-sama Acnologia-sama Acnologia-sama Acnologia-sama Acnologia-sama Acnologia-sama Acnologia-sama Acnologia-sama Acnologia-sama
Everywhere she goes, they say his name, what is wrong with them? There is a limit to how much you can praise one man!!
By the end of the tour, Irene was exhausted.
"And so Acnologia-sama decided to build the playground for the children! A wise choice from our leader, To think he will also care for our little ones, agh! *Sniff* Damn it! This small one is so touched!!"
"Haha! I am sure he is such a great leader." Irene said. Like hell he is! She thought, she can still remember that he is the same Dragon everyone feared, the same Dragon that destroyed every possible way of peace with the Dragons.
However, Irene couldn't help but think '...Did his mental state stabilize like me when crossing over?" She thought. 'It is possible, she herself had a huge deal of mental instability back in the old world, but when she crossed, it was like all her pain, confusion, suffering was washed away and she could strat anew.
"Alright, Now, It is time for me to leave, Rigurdo-san, Thank you for showing me aro--" Before Irene could say anything, she felt a strong and cold wind pressure from above the village.
Irene looked up to see a white Dragon flying over, it was a surprising event, but, not uncommon, so after a moment of surprise, the monsters went back to their work.
Howver, Irene who realized who that dragon was, was not happy about this "Rigurdo-san, this will be our parting moment, I a have to leave now." Irene said before flying away.
Rigurdo only looked as she faded out of his sight "Hm! Mission accomplished."
[A.N: Mission Passed! Respect + (cue music), sorry, just passed by my mind :) ]
Following the aura of the white Dragon, Irene entered a cave, the air was cold and there were traces of freezing around "Still loves to freeze stuff I see..." Irene commented.
"Ora! Well, this is a surprise."
Irene stopped when she heard someone speak, in front of her stood a beautiful girl with icy white hair and blue sea eyes wearing a white dress. "...And to think it is you of all people...A shock indeed."
Irene just stared at the girl who was all happy smiles, unimpressed and bored "..."
"Seeing you here makes me wonder, were you the one who killed my little brother?" She asked
"Velzard...This forest is under the demon lord treaty, why are you here?" Irene asked.
Velzard just smiled and tilted her head "I can say the same to you. Aren't you a demon lord yourself?"
Irene chuckled in a mocking manner "Ha! I am not in that childish little circle that your boyfriend loves to lead." She said "Don't lump me with that pathetic group of demons."
"Like it or hate it, you are demon lord. The treaty still affects you."
"Don't kid yourself, But ultimately, I am here to investigate something." Irene said.
Velzard opened her eyes cheerfully "What a coincidence, me too. I came here to investigate what happened to my rascal of a brother, he seems to have been killed." She said.
'Ah! The storm Dragon was sealed here...!!! Wait!! Killed?! D-did Acnologia kill him?! How?! I thought...No...It was my mistake to jump to conclusions, the Mad Dragon can't overcome his madness just like that, I need to find out for sure.'
"Ahem! So..." Velzard brought Irene from her deep thoughts and spoke.
"So, what?" Irene asked.
"Since both of us are here for personal business, we can say no one was here, don't you think?" Velzard walked near Irene and gave her a bright smile.
'...I wanna punch her in the teeth.' is what Irene thought "...Fine." But there was no need for attention now "Stay away from me." She said.
