“Nn. That’s me. You are?”
“I’m one of the [Underwood] Dryads that participated in the [Rise of the Fire Dragon] Festival and I heard that I’m indebted to Asuka-sama for having offered a hand in the rescue of my younger brother……”
*Oooooh* Seeming to have the recollection of the incident, Asuka made the sound of understanding.
The other party should be referring to the time when the battle with “Black Death Demon Lord” was ongoing and she had once helped that young Dryad teen back then.
Confirming that she found the right person, the reception girl immediately bowed to Asuka in gratitude.
“It’s you, right? I’m really grateful to you, Asuka-sama for saving my younger brother’s life. It’s all thanks to your help that my Community can return safely as a troop without any loss in our numbers.”
“Is it so? That’s great. So the one who sent the invitation was you guys? “
“Yes. The Great Faerie is currently in deep sleep, so we have taken over in the task of sending the invitations. In addition, the new leader of [One Horn] and the representative of [Draco Greif] Alliance ---Sala Doltrake-sama has also specified to give you guys a hospitable reception.”
The troop of [No Name] looked at each other with surprise painted all over their faces.
“Sala……Doltrake?”
Asuka was perplexed as she tilted her head with her feelings shown clearly on her face.
She had an impression of that surname and hence asked Jin:
“Could it be [Salamandra]’s……”
“Nn……that’s right. Its Sandra’s elder sister, Sala-sama the eldest daughter. But I didn’t expect her to come over to the South Side……Could it be that the person who leaked the secret techniques of the North Side is……”
“I’m afraid that the word ‘leaked’ is a baseless accusation, Jin Russel-san”
Just then, an unfamiliar female voice suddenly came from behind and the group hurriedly turned their heads as they were alarmed.
In the next moment, a gust of hot air blew caused the Great Tree’s branches to sway. And the source of the fierce hot air and raging winds is a girl who had appeared in the air and the Flaming Wings that she was emitted by her.
“Sa……Sala-sama!”
“It’s been some time, Jin. I’ve always wanted for the day that we see each other again. The [Highborn of Little Garden]-san behind, this should be our first meeting, right?”
Sala Doltrake dispelled the fiercely burning Hono no Tsubasa (Flaming Wings) and landed upon the tree branch.
