"Roaaaarrr!"
From the inside of the forest, a large voice resounds, which makes the earth shake.
Douz and the others scream can be heard near it. Compared to mine, that roar was much more powerful and louder.
I have an unpleasant premonition. But when I try to stand up, my feet don't move, they don't move.
In the first place, my HP must not be close to full recovery. Right now must be somewhere around half full.
But if I stay like this, it might be possible that I end up becoming some monster's prey.
Yet, I can hardly walk, at most, I toddle from side to side, but that didn't stop me.
Walking little by little, the paralysis seems to be ceasing better.
Good. If I continue like this, I will eventually arrive at that place and will be able to move freely.
It will take me some time, even so, step by step, and I will reach the place where the voice was heard.
Now that the paralysis seems to have mostly stopped, I'll check my status.

As I thought, my HP is only half full.
As I thought, it looks like I'll only be able to watch from afar. But if it really is a dragon they're facing, it might be this parent that God's Voice talks about so much.
....
Beautiful.
What's in front of me is a dragon. A huge dragon.
It has the appearance of a pale blue Western Dragon with celestial blue scales.
So impressive. So beautiful.
That was the only way that I can describe this dragon.
The dragon in front of me triumphantly roared.
It seems that I arrived too late.
Since the moment I saw it, I wanted to escape. From his silhouette and footsteps, one can tell that that guy clearly isn't a normal existence.
While I was hiding, I noticed that under one of his large feet was Miria. She and the other two adventurers have blood coming out of them.
But there's something else I've noticed. This dragon is not related to me. I don't know why, but I can assure you I have no blood relationship with this dragon.
You can call it instinct.

Tiamat?
Wait. Isn't this the strongest of the five Great Dragon Kings in DxD? Why is she here?
When our eyes meet, I begin to be attacked by fear making my body tremble all over.
"Roaaarrr!"
It was a loud dragon roar. The air that came out of his mouth was enough to push me back several feet.
Scary, how scary.
I didn't know why, but I was able to understand what Tiamat was saying.
She said, "What's a baby dragon doing here? Where are your parents?"
"Roaarr!"
I tried to answer. What I said was, "I was born here! I don't know anything about my parents!"
That damn goddess...
Where did she send me? This forest is a forest of death. How can I survive with someone like Tiamat here?
[Run]
[Away] [Please] [Run] [Away] [It's] [Impossible]
God's Voice words are displayed in my head.
I know! But... But...
Thanks to [Inspect Status], I can see that none of them are dead, their status show [Fainted - Bloodied].
The person who tried to kill me or make me a slave is also on the floor.
I hate him, I hate him with all my might.
But still...
But still...
But I still can't watch him die.
He's a human! I was a normal human until recently!
Isn't it normal that I don't want to see humans die?
But I understand that I'm a monster. I can't think like a human anymore.
That Douz kid and the old man have tried to kill me before, so it would be a stupid person to confront them.
But that girl... She had a pure smile on her face, and indirectly saved my life. I may have done it unintentionally, but she saved my life.
I'm not an ungrateful person who doesn't return favors. To tell you the truth, it was one of the things that characterized me while I was alive.
If a person does you a favor, return it. If a person treats you badly, make him live through hell.
That was my way of life.
And even though I'm not human anymore, I'd like to keep that lifestyle.
It will be the evidence that I will never have lost my humanity, no matter how much I am no longer human.
I remember my certain kill technique, which consisted of using my agility and strength that I learned during my egg era.
I approach her with a run and then kick the ground hard.
Without change my hands and knees folded, making a circular
shape.
Even when I evolved, it's still useful, the [Roll] skill.
"Roaarr!"
Tiamat roared once more. The air pressure was too much for me, but I had to resist it.
What Tiamat had said now was: "What are you doing?"
She saw me grab the unconscious girl and carry her in my arms.
"Are you helping the humans who wanted to kill one of your race?"
She sounded incredulous. Well, I can look pretty stupid, and personally, I think I am.
But I've made a decision. This is the last time I risk my life for another person.
Girl, let me return the favor!
"Roaaar!"
Really? I can't believe what Tiamat told me.
She says, "You have a lot of determination to be a baby dragon. All right, I'll let you try to save that girl. I'm gonna send a wolf pack after you. Good luck."
Two chapters because of the new year!
Happy new year guys!
I have to take the girl, but it looks like I can negotiate with Tiamat first.
I looked at the other two bodies left on the floor. It was the old man and the 20-year-old boy.
These two guys wanted to kill me a few minutes ago, especially the old man.
I still remember the sinister smile on the old man's face.
They barely have a few HP points left.
"Do you want to save them too? You're too greedy."
Tiamat has noticed that I'm looking at them and seems to have misunderstood something.
"No, no. You are wrong. These guys wanted to kill me first, so I'd like revenge. Can I kill them?"
"Oh? They wanted to kill you?"
That's a lot of pressure. Is this what they call murderous intent?
Tiamat used to treat them like dust, but now she looks at them with hate. Infinite hatred.
"Yes, but this girl saved my life. That's why I want to save her."
"I see."
Tiamat seems to be thinking seriously. Please, I have to kill them myself!
"They are already on the verge of death. Why do you want to kill them?"
"This is between them and me. I can't sleep easy if I don't kill them with my own hands."
I have to kill them with my own hands, and I have a reason for that.
"It's okay, you can execute them."
Good!
I leave the girl on the floor and approach the two adventurers who are on the verge of death.
I feel a little reluctant to kill them. A few days ago I was a normal boy, and now I have to kill two humans with my bare hands.
But that smile they had while trying to kill me. I can't forgive them! I'm not human anymore, I can't keep thinking like a human.
They don't belong to my species anymore, now they're just experience points to level up.
"Dragon Punch"
With the skill that I learned when I evolved, my fist goes through the old man's chest.
[Aquired 80 experience points]
[Because of title skill [Walking Egg:Lv-] another 80 experience was acquired.]
[[Baby Dragon] level raised from 20 to 22]
Wow, that's a lot of levels. Okay, now I'm going to get the young man. His level was higher than the old one, so he should give me more experience.
"Dragon Punch."
I repeat the action, going back through the young man's chest.
[Aquired 120 experience points]
[Because of title skill [Walking Egg:Lv-] another 120 experience was acquired.]
[[Baby Dragon] level raised from 22 to 24]
Fuck, I'm close to evolving again. I thought it was gonna take me longer, but at this rate, I'm gonna evolve pretty fast.
And now... my humanity is gone. There's no trace of the human I was before, now I'm just a dragon. My lifestyle is going to be the only thing left from my time as a human.
"Have you become stronger by killing them?"
Shit, she's on to me.
Once again, I think I'm foolish. How could I not be discovered by a being as powerful as Tiamat?
I'm going to play dumb for a moment.
"Have I become stronger?"
Tiamat's eyes are narrowed, it's obvious she didn't believe me.
"You can go now. The wolf pack I called is already here. Good luck once again."
Shit, how cruel. Wasn't she the one who was talking about helping the same race?
"If I'm not mistaken, you can improve your strength when you kill another living being. Kill all the wolves, and your strength will improve."
Even if you say it... I'm going to be able to kill the wolves while carrying a human that's bigger than me?
"Awooh"
Shit, they're here.
....
Tiamat watched the baby dragon run away from the wolves. Her body was wrapped in bright light and diminished in size.
This was her human form, she has the appearance of a beautiful woman with straight and long beautiful pale blue hair, dark blue eyes, and a cold atmosphere that radiates from her beauty.
"What an interesting child. And I was looking for the egg that the teacher had left in this forest... Who would have thought that it had already reached its first evolution? This is the first time I've seen a dragon increase its power by killing another living thing."
She moved quickly, hiding her presence and secretly following the baby dragon. She wanted to see how he managed to escape from the wolf pack.
.....
I was carrying Miria while running through the forest. This time what was chasing us were some grey wolves who seem to have been attracted by the smell of blood.
They seemed to be attracted to blood... But I knew this was Tiamat's work.
Moreover, it is not only one, but a lot of them are also following me. There must be at least three of them.
I could defeat them if we fought, but I don't know how I would protect Miria while fighting them.
The grey wolves don't seem to be coming this way anymore.
However, a faint unnatural sound reaches my ear. And it doesn't seem that it was the environment that did that, I should prepare myself.
Since the enemy's potential was unknown, I was considering evacuating from here, and there could be a chance of it being higher as I don't know if he had called for more comrades. Now I understand that I shouldn't have lost sight of him.
Also, the Grey Wolves could sniff out if I had any company, so their next course of action would be to come out.
Such was the explanation of God's Voice.
As it doesn't seem that an attack would come out any time soon, I believe that my only choice would be to escape.
I can't afford that the same thing happens to Miria as when she fought that guy before.
Both her HP and MP were already so low. Moreover, her HP was still occasionally reducing.
At first, I thought it was my imagination, but after checking quite often, my worry was confirmed.
The reason for this must be because of the [Bleeding] status.
If this continues at this pace, I don't think that she would be able to survive for more than five minutes.
I'm weak.
I hunted lower rank monsters to become strong, but I'm weak.
Even after killing those two humans, I'm still weak. I'm only a baby dragon, after all.
I can't fight at all.
I had finally been able to find other humans, and with some difficulties, I made a friend, but I couldn't protect that single person.
Wait, why I'm thinking that? She's a human who had save my life, she isn't my friend.
[Roaar!]
The baby dragon's roar.
Unlike Tiamat's dragon's roar, it isn't able to threaten the surroundings.
That was to inform the unknown enemy to not come close.
Even if I think about it, I could not help but cry. In my heart, there was a mist swirling around that I wanted to clear out.
I want to become stronger,
To be able to easily pulverize any enemies who threaten my life, that's how strong I want to be.
As I run, I feel how Miria's warm blood flows on my body.
That means that her body is being stolen from its life force.
「GaaaAA!」
I really want to scream for help. But I can't, I have to be strong and overcome this test with my own strength.
Because I'm a dragon! And because I'm going to reach the pinnacle of existence!
A few simple wolves won't be able to beat me.
[Title Skill [Spirit Relief: Lv1] was acquired.]
Even if I get such thing... it's only a feeling, it can't do anything...
Iya, wait. Are these "title skills" supposed to be like this.
For example, the [Walking Egg] title skill, which doubles my experience obtained.
In the first place, one would generally consider if there really is such a convenient [Skill]. Could this possibly have something to do with that?
Oi, answer me, God's Voice!
[Special Skill [God's Voice: Lv2] is unable to explain.]
Stop joking!
A life depends on this!
[Special Skill [God's Voice: Lv2] is unable to explain.]
I can't believe it!
You are the one who sent those messages that said [Become strong] and [Run away], why did you think that you could just screw your intentions into me!
I don't even understand who you are, don't you think that such a thing is inflexible?
I don't have any more time!
[Special Skill [God's Voice: Lv2] is unable to explain.]
The same answer.
It just feels like throwing a ball to a wall, unproductive.
Like feeling a bottomless unidentified object, a strange situation.
God's voice, you aren't useful.
What should I do?
How can I save Miria?
---------------------------------------------
Author Note: Little changes in this chapter.
For the ones who asked why does he know that he is on DxD. This are the reasons:
1) The race of the Dragon is: Chaotic Karma Dragon.
In FGO, she is not a dragon. She is is an Earth Mother Goddess, a branch of Çatalhöyük's forgotten goddess.
She is never mentioned as a dragon in another world that is not DxD (Maybe in someone, but I didn't find anything)
2) I don't have another reason.
Happy new year!!!!
