Atelier Tanaka Chapter 12.1

Dragon Extermination 2 (1/3)

An nonce hath happened in the afternoon on the second day of our flight in the airship.

a strategy meeting? [fahren]

well beest arriving at our destination the next day so thither shouldst beest things to break with about ere yond. [tanaka]

. . . . yonds true. [fahren]

this exchange wast done an hour ago in mine own cubiculo with the gentle mage.

hence we hath called out to everyone and hast all the members gatherd together to exchange their ideas. everyone, enwheeling sophia-chan whose duty wast unrelatd to a soldier assembld together in an area resembling a huge living cubiculo in the airship.

resting ourselves on the sofa, everyone wast facing each other with a cuppeth of drinketh in their hands.

cometh to bethink of t, wouldnt this beest the first opportunity to hast everyone enwheeling the gentle mage gatherd in one lodging? considering yond guys so-calld high ranking position, he might not but hast endd up being ostracizd most of the time. theres a humour yond the person in question seemeth to hast intendd fr t to beest this way too occasionally.

the blonde haird loli?

yond person wast displaying that lady tsundere characteristic and hast magnificently blendd into the group.

the ladys actually a valorous person deep down inside but, its just yond the lady plainly hates this like a toad, ugly and venemous middle-agd ossan. well, t is natural fr any human life forms. if t be true i wast a mistress, i bethink not i would evr cometh to like an like a toad, ugly and venemous middle-agd fusty sir too. yonds a given.

anyway alloweth us beginneth our session in devising a countermeasure to defeat the dragon.

without further peize, the one leading the session wast the like a toad, ugly and venemous middle-agd fusty sir.

yeah t wast me.

im my most humble apology.

everyone assembld in the living cubiculo. surrounding a short looking table, we beganeth our discussion after everyone wast did seat on the sofa. thither art two three-seater sofa and one box-shapd one-seater sofa available. the three members from the group amorous rite team wast did seat on one while the other one wast did occupy by me, the gentle mage and mercedes-chan. the remaining sophia-chan satteth herself on the plain one-seater seat.

first of all, we shall beest deciding on the formation to taketh on yond day. [tanaka]

i did enter the main topic right hence.

i did share the scene yond i hast envisiond beforehand with those folk.

despite declaring so, i wast actually giving a trivial explanation in a situation similar to having nay information at all on the last boss of an internet game.

allen-san and mercedes-san shall beest the vanguard while me and fahren-san shall beest the rear guard. ester-san and sophie-san shall beest supporting from the side. [tanaka]

actually, yond wast all.

as fr the responsibilities of the rear guard, i shall beest in charge of healing and eke aiding the people round. fahren-san, ester-san and sophie-san, prithee holp in the terms of firepower. [tanaka]

im not very much sure about the two loli braches but, this role shouldst beest well-suitd fr the gentle mage.

well hast to doth our most wondrous in various ways this time.

fr the two vanguards, prithee doth thy utmost to draweth the attention of the dragon but ts not behoveful to beest on the offensive. doth prioritize thy safety first. [tanaka]

w-wait a minute! [mercedes]

mercedes hath raised that lady handeth.

in spite of that lady draind complexion, the lady hath opened that lady pale-blue lips, voicing out.

regardless of the circumstances, such an important role of leading as a vanguard gainst a rd dragon is just too. . . [mercedes]

the lady didnt seemeth to beest able to wend all out in what the lady wast declaring ere the gentle mage.

especially since the gentle mage wast just sitting right beside that lady.

in any nonce i guess an unpleasant task wast still an unpleasant task to that lady. thank thee very much fr voicing out thy desperate opinion without reservation.

is the dragon yond dangerous?

if thee loseth just an armeth r a leggeth, ill beest able to restore those folk immediately so prithee beest rest assurd. [tanaka]

thither wast proven results.

but! [mercedes]

mercedes-chan still persistd in t.

at which hour i did look at allen from the corner of mine own eyes, he couldst beest seen glancing down his feet looking dispiritd as well. since he hast an important responsibility to protect the blonde haird loli, thither wast nay opportunity fr him to voice his objection. however, the behold of reluctance on his visage indirectly portrayd his humour of not wanting to participate in this if t be true t wast possible.

but i shouldnt giveth up hither. if t be true this dragon extermination quest is not accomplished, mine own house shall beest mortgagd due to debt and someone from somewhere would taketh t hence from me. yond wilt beest did prevent at all did cost. in charge to realize yond, i wilt killeth one r two dragons by any means.

mercedes-san, i fully comprehend what thou art trying to sayeth. [tanaka]

then! [mercedes]

*glance*glance* the mistress knight hath kept throwing occasional glances at the gentle mage, highly intimidatd by the gentle mages gaze.

nonetheless this is a serious matter concerning the state. that lady royal highness princess, the one whom the king loves with all his heart, is currently on the brink of death. thither wast plenty of most wondrous rulers who ist endd up abusing their power and tooketh the wrong path after losing their love ones. once thee wend through the recordd historical facts, thee would beest able to confirm t, wouldnt thee? [tanaka]

fr the sake of convincing that lady, i did mix in facts as well as non-existent details noncommittally.

of course i wonnetht sayeth yond twill forsooth befall to anyone. howevr thee cant totally refute the possibility of this happening as well. argal, as citizens staying in his state, t might not beest an exaggeration to sayeth yond this shall beest a holy war yond carries the future of the state as well. [tanaka]

a-arent thee disrespecting the king with yond speech!? [mercedes]

the desperate behold on mercedes as the lady protestd wast cute.

if yond is the case then ill payeth the price by curing the illness of that lady royal highness princess. [tanaka]

i did stare at that lady with a straight visage.

even if t be true thou art one of the knights r coequal if t be true thee wast to report me directly and inform those folk aught thee wanteth, im fine with t. [tanaka]

!. . . . . . [mercedes]

the other party couldnt coequal utter out a single sound.

t wast hath decided fr real then. yond wast merit of me.

though only on the exterir.

i doth bethink yond twill beest very troublesome. but, i would like everyone to lend me thy power. this mission shall beest impossible by myself. the keystone in succeeding the dragon extermination expedition this time is the trust from everyone hither. all fr one and one fr all, not leaving anyone out. if t be true ts not fr this dragon slayer team, twill not beest possible to accomplish this mission. [tanaka]

the dram wench in the town hast hath said t ere.

i believeth in the dram wench.

since i am a lolicon.

but i doth like huge breasts too.

. . . . . . yesterday, didnt thee feeleth aught coequal after receiving yond termagant torrent of charm? [fahren]

he did direct his gaze at mercedes-chan who ist wast sitting next to him.

owing to yond, the lady did tremble violently. the lady wast freakd out.

i-im my most humble apology. the torrent thee meanteth. . . [mercedes]

you shouldst taketh yond situation into consideration, shouldnt thee? hasnt this person did display such magnificent grise of proof just yesterday? coequal after yond, thee still couldnt sense coequal a portion of yond? yond is the reason wherefore those who ist cant understandeth charm art worthless. [fahren]

he did direct his glance hither the moment he hath said this person.

apparently he wast talking about me.

mm. m-my humble apologies!! [mercedes]

mercedes-chan did get up from the sofa frantically and prostratd.

*kosu kosu* that lady forehead wast rubbing gainst the carpet profusely as the lady did stretch out and did bow.

the surface of that lady forehead would likely expand after this.

just how scary is a gentle to thee?

although, what the gentle mage hath said soundd ambiguous. wast the magnificent grise of proof referring to how i achieve the result from mine own fabricatd story? i receiveth not what he meanteth either but t wouldnt beest a valorous idea to pursue this part even but now. i shouldst just act accordingly with flow.

now, anon fahren-san. alloweths just receiveth long. thither shall beest opportunities fr this anytime. [tanaka]

. . . . . fuun, fine then. i shall overlook t this time to save this persons visage. [fahren]

t-thank thee very much! [mercedes]

as though the lady hast just narrowly did escape death, drops of sorrow couldst beest seen welld up in that lady eyes as the lady couldnt enwheel that lady composure.

i wonder if t be true i would beest waitd on like this too once i becometh a gentle. i suddenly did start visualizing t by chance but, oioi, being a gentle is not yond lacking valor too. being a gentle seemeth nice, isnt t. having a voluptuous beauty prostrate ere thee is the most wondrous. this might beest mine own next goal after i did complete the youth restoration potion one day.

ill aim fr something like a duke.

anyway, t might beest just a simple share of tasks but, yonds all. [tanaka]

i hath continued looking at the people round.

does anyone hast aught to asketh? [tanaka]

at mine own question, the blonde haird loli hath raised a query.

t wilt beest because the lady hast reconcild with allen. the lady seemeth to beest in quaint valorous humor.

that lady complexion hast did improve considerably too so the lady hast belike accustomd herself to the trippeth by air.

is thither a slightly moo concrete strategy? [ester]

. . . . alloweths see. [tanaka]

despite being a non-virgin, the lady hast hitteth whither t hurts the most.

i dont hast aught like yond anon.

i wast taking a chance. after us, the deluge.

yonds because we hast someone with a max level of recovery charm and the gentle mage ossan. in addition to yond, we hast two vanguards as well so i bethought we shouldst beest able to receiveth by somehow. mercedes-chan ought to beest round level 35 too so yond wast quite stout in mine own opinion. after all the lady wast peerless at which hour the lady wast going gainst the military police during our prisonbreak the other time.

i guess the important thing is our hurlyburly position. [tanaka]

battle position? [ester]

thus ill receiveth through t by giving an appropriate reply.

in mine own school days, yond wast how i hath drawn out the large-scale boss from the internet game yond i wast fully addictd to.

im not very much sure as well but since the opponent is a dragon, the thing yond we needeth to taketh note of mostly is its breath. in charge to avoid yond, we needeth to hast sufficient space mongst ourselves and maketh useth of the terrain as shields. by taking all these into account in advance, an advantageous positioning shall enable us to maketh a definite pre-emptive strike. [tanaka]

utilizing the topography of an area is one of the strongest tradition hath used by base level characters at which hour they hunt fr high level mob.

rather, any internet games yond provide not geographical features to the players art did conclude to beest trashy games.

who ist wast the one who ist hath decided yond? i am the one. i just hath decided now it.

and, how much damage doest the first attack cause, yond shall beest a very much important point too. if t be true t is possible then, yond is at which hour we shouldst aim fr the wings. since our main aim is to retrieve its livr and not to defeat t entirely, we shouldst restrict its movement as much as possible. [tanaka]

fuun, t seemeth yond thee didst bethink through t moo r less. [fahren]

although, if t be true we art able to land the first successful hitteth at yond time, i would like fahren-san to taketh charge of t. . . . [tanaka]

i hath passed the subject to the gentle mage indirectly.

the probability of anyone defying this person shouldst beest zero.

i mind not t. i wast planning to doth so from the beginning. [fahren]

thank thee very much. then, we can belike press on with yond. [tanaka]

well enow. ts perfect.

i wast able to dissemble those folk well.

richards daughter, tll beest valorous if t be true thee recall the current conversation well. [fahren]

what doth thee cullionly by yond, lord fahren? [ester]

what this person hath said is very much accurate fr one who ist wishes to dare a dragon. in future, if t be true thee wast to decideth on practising charm, this trippeth shall prove to beest an invaluable experience fr thee. [fahren]

. . . . . . . aye. thank thee fr the counsel. [ester]

the blonde haird loli did nod meekly.

cometh to bethink of t, this person is a inhorn man from ossans school.

that lady unexpectd not tsundere-like behaviour wast a proof of that lady respect fr him.

but well, he wast flattering me surprisingly.

im very much my most humble apology. i wast actually just spouting out by fate details. i would like to apologize but, i hast a humour yond the misprision this time hast strengthend the bond of this party. i dare not breaketh now it. rather, this gentle mage is gravely easy. hes belike a character yonds too convenient.

i desire thee can learneth as much as thee can. [fahren]

yes, i understandeth. [ester]

however, the dissimilarity in the treatment between that lady and mercedes-chan is as different as night and day. coequal though yond wench hast been prostrating in front of him till anon out of that lady own decision, he wast providing a career guidance to the blonde haird loli in a warm-heartd manner.

then, doest anyone else hast aught to asketh. . . . [tanaka]

i did direct mine own attention to everyone once again.

this time, sophia-chan wast the one who ist hath raised that lady handeth timidly.

what doth thee needeth to knoweth? [tanaka]

erm. . . . . . w-will i beest participating too? [sophia]

a reasonable question.

if thou art referring to the upcoming hurlyburly then, nay. i would like sophia-san to carryeth on with thy current worketh as a waitress. argal, i shall beest counting on thee to stayeth hither and taketh care of the things in this airship once we hath reached our destination. this is eke an important job. [tanaka]

ah y-yes! i understandeth! [sophia]

sophia-chan did nod with an extremely joyful expression on that lady visage. sophia-chan with joyous smileth receiveth!

so the lady can smileth at someone like me too.

a trivial sense of accomplishment cameth ovr me.

by the way, i actually hast a question fr fahren-san in yond respect. . [tanaka]

whats wrong? [fahren]

where is this airship scheduld to land? [tanaka]

we art planning to land at the town locatd at the foot of mount pepe. [fahren]

i see. yond means well beest proceeding either by foot r carriage from thither. [tanaka]

umu. [fahren]

as did expect, we shall not beest landing at a dragon did infest area directly.

well, yonds true. if t be true the hurlyburly reaches coequal the airship, t would beest troublesome if t be true we wast to end up damaging t.

the rd dragon is living in the vicinity of the rivr that from which we speak locatd at mount pepe. its existence is currently pondered to beest at the top of the ecosystem in the neighbourhood. moreover, just a few levels below the rd dragon, demons such as flare wyverns and salamanders art eke inhibiting the areas. [fahren]

i see. [tanaka]

the terminologies hath used in figure wast gushing out, barraging me endlessly.

the humour wast similar to reading a walkthough from a game booketh out loud with a straight visage in a company meeting.

ts unbearable.

therefore, we shouldst belike ponder the aspect of correspondence in the surrounding area [fahren]

yond wast at which hour t hath happened, causing the gentle mage to stand ho mid-sentence.

*zzuzuunn*

the shaking wast very much intense, belike at the scale of magnitude 7 r 8.

uuuoooo-!? [tanaka]

i alloweth out a scream unintentionally.

similarly, the other people hath raised their voices out of hoyday too.

some kind of problem might not but hast did occur certes.

in the midst of the intense tremor, all the members scrambld to the deck.
