若干年前，西羅馬帝國宣佈放棄不列顛尼亞，萊亞 .斯卡雷特某種程度也放棄了。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYm2yvOHjuH
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGjYdRRgm2
即使已經獲得正統龍族此生可以獲得的典範能力之一「永生」，若干年後，萊亞還是活得很不愉快。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLnn1tyvewz
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdgp2roGqu
根據家族教誨，龍族不可以涉入人類歷史太深，要與人類和平共處，這是每個龍族小時候都知道的事情。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1tBWS3Mhb
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bL8MF0Ca0
可是現在部份長老指示，龍族要幫助羅馬帝國的人民。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7RE0exoZ3R
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1G6fPoAPB
根據那位古代天龍族的公主——也就是被後世稱為天龍始祖的那位大人——的傳世之典，上頭明確說明了龍族有自己的世界觀，與人類不同，兩者是互補的存在、就好像大自然跟動植物一般。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdCJEuCB5Q
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Jeku5xmsD
不過許多龍族士兵曾表明要和那些瞧不起人的蠻族幹架。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKw7KbwVHC
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwLhWm5F0g
因為各種矛盾，萊亞一度與長老爭論不休，爭論到長老換了又換、換了再換，萊亞說到最後，直接說已經不想再插手管事。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPIrNwLhaT
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8Fvq4FFHG
就好像已經鍛鍊到最強的蠻族士兵，面對軟弱的帝國軍隊，戰無不勝、不知強敵是何物……儘管如此還是不想攻擊。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1y7zMVfJx
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyGIahT5lA
彷彿是超級厲害的帝國參謀，與部隊一起處於蠻族自滿的大草原上，雖無地利、但還是有能力取勝……就算這樣也不打算出兵。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCsB2qrGVh
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcYVScV7RR
某種程度，萊亞並不想要使用自己那戰無不勝的能力。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMLZ3EIVO9
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTh7vGwm5ym
至少，他不想要對無辜的人類使用——特別是在看到蠻族侵犯他人妻女，可是自己人一方的帝國軍，也做過同樣的事情之後。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKaemvHD9Vs
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxBj2agRO1
這樣莫名的狀況，過去萊亞看過不下百次；如此無力的感覺，他在發現的那一瞬間，沒有一刻是不這麼感受的。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrIA1IIXkA
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnagrKLfm11
但，萊亞現在還是需要去做他不想做的事，一件他早就厭煩的事。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWT1rSSOShz
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkZt7CrETM
萊亞被長老要求，要去做地方巡邏。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9MHLdwwyts
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mdD4TBF4V
巡邏是慣例，是每個龍族鬥士都需要去做的。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cJXo1zyzS
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDem6lrZ0VD
之所以「那個地方」不交給基層處理，長老考量的因素似乎很多，但聽到萊亞的耳中，他認為主要、也大概只有兩個原因。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGs5y5j8sa7
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQI9DBMAGIZ
一是要巡邏的重要地點，曾是帝國的重要戰略位置，部份親帝國的長老們不會放過討好帝國的機會，所以派最強的過去好彰顯自己有誠意。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUyekFmhAGQ
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrphca4Vhty
二是因為那個地方，有特別多邪龍出沒，交給基層容易出包處理不好，弄不好還可能會波及到人類。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8qks1EDGT
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwo9PdFUKB
總之，「那個地方」正是帝國將原本留守的軍隊撤離，龍族長老才不得以派萊亞過去的地區。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIGrtkwloR
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrzZoBvFeT
是的，儘管萊亞覺得無聊，他還是受限於龍族的身份，需要去做一些例行公事——去巡邏位於不列顛尼亞行省中，威爾斯的山區，原帝國軍隊撤離的所在區域。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgsqmIyySV
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mBbyVKEiq
而這，就是為什麼萊亞此刻又覺得有放棄、無力的感受。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlxHUeON4t
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrElekpSpIz
可能是因為如此，萊亞才回想起與長老爭論的各種回憶吧。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCNi4FcSuV
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPaquIadaIV
「還是一如既往地無聊呢。」萊亞此時坐在一座草原上，望著底下的樹林，雙腳懸空前後擺盪，像個小孩子坐在海邊巨大岩石上，眺望大海一般。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvqLJ4USE7
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJbJmBIqhR
——巡邏呀。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvtfN0r5SD
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcDWqQqJKy
——就算說要巡邏，但這座山這麼大，到底要巡到什麼時候呢？289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6b0op3hB4
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yBQKofr4b
「……還是來睡覺、曬日光浴比較實在。」289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHeIlHM901s
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggCRv1VSUZ
萊亞打了個哈欠，往後躺下來閉上雙眼。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNa34D2sqHo
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvIJXSgvlT
但就在這一刻，萊亞就聽到附近傳來不明聲響。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXberDzeq1K
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEu3X5YcNe
這並不是小動物的聲響，事實上，萊亞也從味道聞出來了。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtscUf9bfgQ
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANgr3Gl0lO
是邪龍族的士兵，而且還不是普通的士兵。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2n1oc97Vi
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxCkUSKn6H
而且還數量很多的樣子。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RPN10BYzh
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxDUkic2NH
——1、2、3……嗯嗯嗯，有10個高等級邪龍，大概是打不贏吧。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVUqgnPgeN
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXaHpw4IuE
萊亞如此心想，於是他翻了個身，讓自己的左側身體曬到太陽。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLqndeOrYv
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANYa6x3vE5
「喂，正統龍族大人，你躺在那兒做什麼？」289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMNB5hDrgj
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1N2ASwHxo
其中一名邪龍族士兵好像發話了。。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghvedRgxGY
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyse7bWojvL
聽口氣，萊亞覺得大概這位邪龍就是那群士兵的首領的樣子。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvZ7Rxch5X
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDbnkZ7Eu7
「不管怎樣，今天在本大爺的領導之下，這裡不允許有任何人妨礙那個大人找樂子。」289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNim75FMAgH
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSvHFW0b5P
「……嗯？」289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4Ym8WWMFo
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yNCwawXBe
——那個大人？誰呀？289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3NM46XR9t
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhoDPYysNB
萊亞沒有想這麼多，單純只是發出疑問而已。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7sqGvvVNr
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhacbK7MgZ
證據就是，他在聽到那位邪龍族首領說話後，又翻個身子，這次是右側身體曬到太陽。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjVogF8HsW
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU17xsru1dB
「喂！你有聽到嗎？可惡的正統龍族！」289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxAFIfd1fT
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1z2jG4AAyn
「喔喔，有喔。」萊亞回。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXS0UdtFC7c
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0A9fOzmF3P
「你這廢物，還搞不清楚你跟我們這些強者的差異嗎？」289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcc0ZZUOk23
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SG9rUCuRx
「……」289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEiHx5kFs2
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5SuWFJDzIG
——啊啊，他好囉唆。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3oRbjNnDBF
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeumDPqEqhV
——既然要死，就該死的痛快一點。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1pGFQsBA7
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjPwExIZJ4
——曬太陽死去好像也不錯呢。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9UIJWkTHS
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhcNIRrP71
「該死的東西，居然在我本大爺高興的宣佈之下，躺在那邊發呆？好，我就讓你感受一下我們偉大地龍的力量！」289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Hf1hReIkS
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WlftASekQ
——地龍呀……289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBdEZzeEpT
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmgFwiGHdW
天龍，是現代龍族的古時候的稱呼，現在的龍族只會在唸咒的時候說自己是天龍的後裔，一般都是自稱為正統。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTOuO4p68I
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡap9OLhLgpu
地龍，是古代龍族與天龍相對的龍族，他們的自尊極高，所以會時不時地說出自己和地龍始祖的關聯，無論有無在詠唱魔法。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuXqxENya6
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXBD1B8Ph4
「沉穩又有智慧的地龍始祖呀……」289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYWEkGcgNl
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMpdJUmKBP
「請給予您的子民真正的力量……」289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7LTZYymUs
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodn8jJ7XAh
那些邪龍士兵開始詠唱咒語，萊亞這個時候還是躺著的狀態。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8HELXBMzA
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZY7FBLmPnO
萊亞此刻給人的感覺，就是放棄到不能再放棄，也不為過的狀態，但是——那並不是放棄自己生命的那種放棄。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCcqlIMeBm
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAzXKwa9mS
「「「「「山崩地裂！」」」」」289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPStwhF1Gl0
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PZdnxn9ng
「「「「「地龍吐息！」」」」」289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2u0A22v5KF
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzp3NRHlkw
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5xGxjmMKo
「啊啊啊啊啊，無聊。」289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTuAho2MmZ9
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnwqzFAqH0
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5bdppVLTjD
轟！289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8ZK1nkxrX
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjYN5btIc1
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXTCWgi2dU
邪龍族詠唱完魔法的瞬間，萊亞只是一個抬手，一揮，就將他們的魔法全部反射回去。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsbhppghi9
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdmNh0gJjU
塵埃飛揚，哀號聲也四起，但只是維持了一下子，就不再有任何聲響。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKP3aPWX9Pl
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPvYsc8c21
——1個2個3個……嗯，正好十個。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aityPcSb5
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroxXHgjMpi
——曬太陽就死去，果然很痛快吧。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQ8adIWuio
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkap2hfn5c7
「打不贏，沒錯，你們果然打不贏我。」289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXOklhha5v
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHy32G17Sk
萊亞微笑，睜開眼睛，站起身子轉過去面向那群已經化成灰的士兵。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyXxlAXHRk
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IpkaKvrpQ
「爽不爽啊……唉呀，不會有人回答呢，我在幹麻？」萊亞說到這裡，轉過身子面向那堆緩緩落地並消去的塵埃，一手放到後腦勺。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2dnsaQyUhA
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfsgcNNKBS
——好無聊。289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFkUcVuNUA
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhFfxP5aer
——不過他們說的那個大人？是誰呢？嗯嗯嗯……289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJQTovVh5A
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Ws6nVAmAK
想到這裡，然後一如既往地，萊亞又打了個哈欠。
