Beast Taming? Nah, Dragon Herding is Way Better!-Chapter 119: And They’re the Sheeps

Hearing the question of her closest friend, the young elven duchess' ears perked up as she is also quite curious about the strength of this young man that she just befriended because of the elven princess, Alea, with this friend seemingly being a bunch of secrets that is just waiting for them to unveil.

Meanwhile, the roommate of the person in question, despite seemingly being interested about this as well, is clearly still thinking about something else to ask, a testament to that being the fact that he wasn't really acting all too similar to the two elven beauties, something that might be attributed to him being a bit more logical given that he is a man, or possibly a completely different reason at all.

After hearing the words of the first friend he had ever made after coming out to his travels to the capital, the emperor-like young man, Diluc, thought for a while, not because he is considering whether he want to let her into his secret, but rather because he wants to think about the best degree of strength, he should reveal to them.

Pausing for a while, he finally decided on the degree of strength he should show them, his answer to their questions something that just made not only the two elven beauties, but also his roommate, wide eyed in surprise.

Not for any reason that one might expect though, as he doesn't even tell them anything that can answer their question, his answer making them all the more impatient for him to reveal his true strength.

"Just watch while we're still defending our place, who knows, there might be someone in the arena that is capable of dealing with my current strength, just then, I might need to use my actual strength…"

The emperor-like young man answered with a smile and a wink on his face, the words coming out of his mouth something that made all those waiting for his answer to feel like they had been played, the two elven ladies gritting their teeth in annoyance as they start thinking of ways that they might get back to this annoying young man, while said young man's roommate merely shakes his head as a wry smile appears on his handsome face, the light coming from heavens above just making his appearance all the more beautiful and feminine.

While the three of them are thinking of all sorts of things regarding Diluc though, the young man himself already move past the topic as he once again, manages to use words in order to avoid answering such kind of questions, breathing a sigh of relief as he notices that the mind of those three, particularly the two elven beauties, are already on something else, such relief not going to last as it will come to bite him back sooner or later in the future.

"I'm just kidding, given how petty Alfia is, I shouldn't really be doing anything that will make her angry… let's talk about it later"

Seeing the expression on the three's face changing from the exasperation to surprise and then eventually joy, Diluc couldn't help but smile a bit before he once again focuses on something else, leaving his back completely open towards the three, showing just how much he trusts them.

Looking at his back, the two elven royalties looked at each other with a smile on their faces, feeling a bit at loss as they couldn't help but feel annoyed that they got satisfied with such answer, that despite his answer being quite vague once again, the two elven ladies thought that it was so much better than his previous answer, the two of them looking at each other before nodding, and then returning to their resting state once again.

On the other hand, while the three starts resting, Diluc merely sat in a place where he can see the surrounding area the most, deciding to defend this place until the three finishes their rest, deciding to entertain himself by just meditating lightly, not letting himself fall into a deep meditative state.

If someone were to find out that he is forcefully keeping himself away from a deep meditative state, they would definitely try to kill him just from sheer jealousy alone, but not because of the fact that he can always keep himself from entering a deep meditative state but rather due to the fact that he can so easily enter the deep meditative state that he even wants to forcefully stop it from happening.

However, no one does, and no one seemingly will be aware of that fact except for the person who achieves such feat, Diluc, and even if there is to be someone else who will become aware of that, he always felt like this won't be such a big deal so he just always dismissed it.

And due to that, all four of them appears all too peaceful as they all enters meditative states in order to prepare themselves properly for climbing up some higher spires than the one they are currently standing on, the four of them agreeing to that just to make sure that they can enter the second round of this trial for the Primaria Class without any troubles.

As peculiar and odd as it is though, their spire, despite being on a considerably high place that it is already guaranteed that they will enter the second round, along with the fact that every single person occupying this place appears to be people who are recuperating, not a single person dares to even get close the spire they are standing on, with the most daring ones only achieving as far as staring at the spire from a considerable distance away.

The reason for that? The fact that the emperor-like young man domineeringly dealt with every single opponent that he had along the way, the competition, in front of him becoming a mass slaughter like that of a wolf entering a flock of sheep.

And they're the sheeps.
