Chapitre 167: Rescue

"Screek... screek!" - Kenji's faint cry perfectly expressed its happy feelings. Lying sideways, the little dragon demon looked like a helpless puppy sharing the same mat with its caring tamer. 

"I... I don't understand..." Yoichi muttered, turning his head back to Shioko and his master. "What happened? Where are we? How did we manage to get out of the dungeon?" he inquired, unable to remember anything besides Ogai's body wrapped in dragon flames.

"Supreme Ryutaro ran to our rescue, Yoichi. When you lost consciousness, I was desperate, not knowing how to carry the both of you out of there. As soon as Ogai was defeated, the black mud that enveloped everything began to emit a strange smoke and melted," Shioko explained. 

"It melted? You mean the Blackblood just disappeared from the whole area? Even outside the dungeon?" Yoichi exclaimed in amazement, unable to believe his ears.
