Chapter 17: Maybe it’s a good idea to enslave some goblins

Translator: yuzu

No… It’s not…

She had no idea what these people were talking about!

Her dream abruptly ended when she saw the face of the man who was about to start her trial.

Luya sat up in shock from her nightmare, her back drenched in sweat.

Only when she saw the red dragon beside her, did she sigh slightly from relief.

It didn’t feel like a dream at all.

The pictures, sounds, and senses were all too realistic, almost as if she really had been present at the scene.

She was quite sure that this definitely wasn’t a memory that belonged to this body, but she also had no idea what she had seen.

It was almost like something that had happened for real, but who was the main character

Was it her

Luya suddenly had the wild notion that maybe the dream was a prophecy.

Could it be fortelling something that would happen in the future

…There’s no way.

She clearly remembered that the priests said that she was a god-slayer, that she would destroy the Grandina Continent, and have a sexual affair with the evil dragon… each accusation was more ridiculous than the next.

How could she destroy the Grandina Continent Even the Demonic World Eye was unable to accomplish that, so how was a human girl weaker than a chicken supposed to do it And why the heck would she do that Her only talent was nearly worthless, and she’d only end up killing herself.

Forget about killing a god, she couldn’t even kill a goblin!

The only thing that was somewhat plausible was having a sexual affair with the evil dragon… wait, actually no! It was impossible for her to have that kind of relationship with a dragon!

T-The size difference is way too much…

In the end, their relationship was just that of a pet owner and their pet.

It was just like how humans raise cats and dogs.

Who the heck developed special feelings for their pets

For instance, she was raising a dog because she liked petting dogs.

There definitely weren’t any other questionable thoughts!

Luya comforted herself that it was just a dream.

Perhaps she was too stressed, and it was common for a person to dream about the things they thought about during the day.

Her distrust of the God of Light from the Grandina Continent was reflected in her dreams.

The God of Light in her dream was very messed up.

At the very least, he wasn’t like the kind of god that she expected with her common sense.

How could the god of the Grandina Continent be like that, asking others to give their souls to the light It sounded like something that a demon would ask…

She must have overthought it, and developed negative thoughts in her subconscious.

This must have been why she had such a strange dream.

In the first place, how was she supposed to pass through the jungle and the sea of fire at the end of the Asdra Continent, to reach the other side of the world

She shouldn’t take the things in dreams too seriously.

Luya shook her head to clear her mind.

The sky was still dark outside, and without a watch or clock, she could only judge the time from the amount of light outside.

The outside of the cave was still pitch black.

The Shiba Inu lying nearby woke up1, and it glanced at her.

Today, the Shiba Inu was willing to stay inside of the dragon’s lair.

Behind her was the steady breathing of the red dragon.

The cohabitation of a one dragon, one person, and one dog seemed very peaceful.

Luya decided to go back to sleep.

The next morning.

A new day had begun.

After waking up at dawn, she found that the dog had already drunk water from the Goblet of Aqua Pura.

Don’t ask how Luya knew this.

The Shiba Inu shedded fur very badly, and there were several dog hairs floating on the water’s surface.

She could only pretend that she didn’t see it.

After removing those dog hairs, she started to wash her face and rinse her mouth.

Today’s breakfast would be the remaining slime again…

But Luya didn’t want to eat slime anymore!

So when the red dragon opened its eyes and woke up, Luya made a request.

“I want to eat fish, but nothing that big! One salmon would be perfect, or something like the egg from the first day.

Maybe not meat unless there’s an easy way to cook it… but anyways, anything but slimes…”

Luya didn’t know if she was asking too much, but the red dragon suddenly had a difficult expression.

Although she had asked for anything but slimes, she had added many other additional requests.

As an old-fashioned2 male dragon, it was a bit aggravating to deal with so many things.

But with Luya’s expectant eyes, it frowned and thought for a while, and then flew out of its lair.

Great, her favorite time of day had just begun.

She wondered what kind of prey the red dragon would bring back today

Luya stretched her waist and started to examine the cleanliness of the dragon’s lair.

After a night of the living broom’s sweeping, the cave was even cleaner than before.

If only she could mount some wallpaper and pave some floor tiles, it wouldn’t be so bad here.

She decided to discuss this with the red dragon another day.

Previously, she had seen a room that was similarly decorated in Archduke Gudius’s castle, and it looked very cozy, albeit a bit on the darker side.

There was no reason why the dragon’s residence couldn’t be renovated even better.

Her final analysis was that the red dragon was too old-fashioned and careless3.

He didn’t pursue any hobbies4, had a sloppy lifestyle, and even his own treasure horde was filled with dust.

All of these problems needed to be corrected!

Thinking about this carefully, her current life really wasn’t that bad, right She should stop thinking about going back to human society.

If she kept belaboring over it, eventually she’d have a break down, which wasn’t good.

Luya stared at the golden pass that the Shiba Inu had given her, and then finally put it in her pocket reluctantly.

After reorienting herself and drinking some water, she went out and prepared to wait for the delivery of the things she had bought yesterday in Dünbruck.

Luya was immediately taken aback by the sight she saw outside of the cave.

The formerly barren and sulfur-polluted land outside of the dragon’s lair had transformed into fertile black soil, as if a magic spell had been cast on it overnight.

“What happened Was it really just those few earthworms”

She remembered that when Old Berg sold those earthworms, he had said they were “earth dragons that could change the nature of soil itself”.

They could turn even the most poisonous lands into fertile ground suitable for farming.

So that old demon wasn’t lying after all… now it looked like it would be possible to grow stuff next to the dragon’s lair.

Was there anything that she could plant

Luya thought of the seeds that she had looted from the goblins yesterday.

She didn’t know what kind of seeds those were, but they had been stored inside a locked chest as if they were a precious treasure.

She felt like they might be rare.

She hoped they might grow into vegetables.

But to be honest, she didn’t have anything else to plant aside from those seeds.

Perhaps it was time to try her luck.

Consequently, Luya found a relatively fertile plot of land, scattered the seeds on the ground, buried them, and then watered them with the Goblet of Aqua Pura.

…That was probably the way to get started.

When she started farming, the dog kept following and watching her work.

This was the only thing that comforted Luya.

At the very least Lu Dahuang wasn’t running anymore, so perhaps that meant he recognized her as his master

“Good boy.

If the red dragon brings anything good back today, I’ll cook some dog food for you, Dahuang.”

Luya looked at the Shiba Inu affectionately, and reached out to pet him.

But for some reason, the Shiba Inu immediately turned around and walked away after hearing her.

It even glared at her despicably5, unless she was imagining it

Fine… this dog was too headstrong.

It was impossible to change, so she might as well get back to work.

Since the soil was so fertile, Luya wanted to dig up some fruit trees and transplant them.

She remembered seeing a few apple trees when she had gone looking for the dog.

If they could be planted here, they would become an endless supply of fruit.

But how could she do it She fell into a quandary.

She definitely wasn’t able to move an entire tree herself.

Even the red dragon wouldn’t be much help.

It was impossible to dig out the fruit tree along with its roots using just one person’s strength, and even if she could somehow bring it back, she had no strength to push the fruit tree up to plant it.

If only she had someone to help.

As she was thinking about this, an idea suddenly popped up in Luya’s head.

There were some wild goblins on this mountain.

Since the red dragon didn’t usually attack these monsters on the mountain, they were able to survive in the dragon’s area of influence and live in peace.

But goblins were intelligent, even if it was at a relatively low level compared to other monsters.

They also had limited fighting power, and it was practically written in their instinctual genes for them to never attack anything that was much stronger than themselves.

That said, goblins were very suitable for civil construction projects, such as repairing a lord’s manor.

It was reported that the dark city Dünbruck was originally built with 20,000 goblins.

They would obey their orders under the state of fear, but they had almost no loyalty.

As soon as the goblins’ master lost the power to control them, they would immediately flee.

Luya estimated that there were at least a dozen goblins on this mountain.

Since the dragon lived on this mountain, there were no griffons that dared approach, which were the goblins’ natural enemy.

They had practically formed a small tribe.

It would be a waste if Luya didn’t take advantage of this natural resource.

Even though the goblins wouldn’t listen to her, if it were the dragon…

When she played Harvest Moon6 in the past, she had been able to enslave seven elves to water and harvest her crops.

Why couldn’t she enslave some goblins

She could have the goblins plough the land, plant crops, build houses, and grab some poultry to make a post-apocalyptic farm.

There was a hot spring right next to their home, so there would be no reason to go back to human society.

Didn’t she always dream about living the farm life when she worked 80-hour weeks in the past

At the very least she could become self-sufficient.

Even though life wouldn’t be easy, when Luya thought of her compatriots who were being slaughtered in the human farms, she was already lucky enough… she had seriously been saved by an angelic dragon from heaven.

When the red dragon comes back, she’d discuss her plan with him to see if it was possible to rein in the goblins that lived on this mountain… that said, there was also a ruin on this mountain, and traces that humans lived here in the past.

If possible, she wanted to explore this mountain to see if she could find anything useful.

While Luya was thinking about her beautiful plan, the Shiba Inu beside her suddenly became alert.

Before Luya could even react, the Shiba Inu suddenly tackled her to the ground.

At the same moment, an enormous fireball flew past Luya’s original spot, and exploded on the ground with a boom7.

“…”

The **!

What the hell was this!

Author’s notes:

Currently, I owe 4400 words from fertilizers, which is one and half chapters.

At 6000 bottles of fertilizer, it’ll be two chapters.

Combined reply: In this universe, a Favored person is someone who is useful to God, and they have indeed received God’s favor.

They have special powers, can receive special distinctions from completing God’s tasks, and can even be possessed by God.

For example, when God doesn’t want to damage his own body, he can possess the body of a Favored one, and then retreat safely even if he is defeated.

Recommending a work by my bestie: I’m not tragic, how may I help you By Fuya

In the first chapter, she wanted to write about me transmigrating, so I helped her edit it a bit!

The boss is even more nasty than the one in the original work

I suggested a bunch of wicked ideas in the first few chapters.

Watching her is just like watching me (not really)

Translator’s notes:

Woken up (吵醒): Has a connotation of being woken up by noise.Old-fashioned (直男): Literally, “straight male”.

Means a traditional guy.Careless (隨便): Willing to go along with anything; indifferent.This line says, “didn’t pursue happiness”, conveying the idea that the dragon doesn’t do anything for fun.Despicably (白了她一眼): Literally, “gave her a white eye”, which is an idiom for a despicable look.Harvest Moon: A video game series centered around farming.

In the series, you can “befriend” “Harvest sprites” to help do things, but the original raw uses the term “enslave”…Boom (咻): The sound effect in the original raw is actually, “sheeoo”
