若干年前，西羅馬帝國宣佈放棄不列顛尼亞，萊亞 .斯卡雷特某種程度也放棄了。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVH8F4IUrD
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuX9evgH26s
即使已經獲得正統龍族此生可以獲得的典範能力之一「永生」，若干年後，萊亞還是活得很不愉快。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvg0JmMUoRm
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLR1mVE89A
根據家族教誨，龍族不可以涉入人類歷史太深，要與人類和平共處，這是每個龍族小時候都知道的事情。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFRIETCkk6
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1ZbvnwpnP
可是現在部份長老指示，龍族要幫助羅馬帝國的人民。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgnBIVd1A2
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmvvwsKNra
根據那位古代天龍族的公主——也就是被後世稱為天龍始祖的那位大人——的傳世之典，上頭明確說明了龍族有自己的世界觀，與人類不同，兩者是互補的存在、就好像大自然跟動植物一般。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFB03eET1T
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8t3dMlnvZT
不過許多龍族士兵曾表明要和那些瞧不起人的蠻族幹架。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaO0pUHjw2Z
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0J2j6w5qhm
因為各種矛盾，萊亞一度與長老爭論不休，爭論到長老換了又換、換了再換，萊亞說到最後，直接說已經不想再插手管事。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBo38MQGr6
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2ag7PPcrM
就好像已經鍛鍊到最強的蠻族士兵，面對軟弱的帝國軍隊，戰無不勝、不知強敵是何物……儘管如此還是不想攻擊。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0u0Yo3DOQ0
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqWCzycIbTV
彷彿是超級厲害的帝國參謀，與部隊一起處於蠻族自滿的大草原上，雖無地利、但還是有能力取勝……就算這樣也不打算出兵。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CWb8MKiuF
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlw20xoYlI
某種程度，萊亞並不想要使用自己那戰無不勝的能力。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xg5PZjAa8
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oHFlz2Hyb
至少，他不想要對無辜的人類使用——特別是在看到蠻族侵犯他人妻女，可是自己人一方的帝國軍，也做過同樣的事情之後。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLt00Wehpz
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUvCsg9SVb
這樣莫名的狀況，過去萊亞看過不下百次；如此無力的感覺，他在發現的那一瞬間，沒有一刻是不這麼感受的。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXC0om2jAl
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAO9EFYFnr9
但，萊亞現在還是需要去做他不想做的事，一件他早就厭煩的事。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9I7MskJP4T
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvWhRFtLXk
萊亞被長老要求，要去做地方巡邏。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1H4trjnN9C
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1dGWpSOZh
巡邏是慣例，是每個龍族鬥士都需要去做的。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbL6CKeHnK
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEoh6DOdGW
之所以「那個地方」不交給基層處理，長老考量的因素似乎很多，但聽到萊亞的耳中，他認為主要、也大概只有兩個原因。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHdZj2V2gg
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohJOn5CjFu
一是要巡邏的重要地點，曾是帝國的重要戰略位置，部份親帝國的長老們不會放過討好帝國的機會，所以派最強的過去好彰顯自己有誠意。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlG3sYKAxX
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jkGQPUOA4
二是因為那個地方，有特別多邪龍出沒，交給基層容易出包處理不好，弄不好還可能會波及到人類。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4i7uibe5HM
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKu21WTbmQY
總之，「那個地方」正是帝國將原本留守的軍隊撤離，龍族長老才不得以派萊亞過去的地區。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLJ8B4PvrA
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6c3IZEOzj
是的，儘管萊亞覺得無聊，他還是受限於龍族的身份，需要去做一些例行公事——去巡邏位於不列顛尼亞行省中，威爾斯的山區，原帝國軍隊撤離的所在區域。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKHcKxn43i
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzKrHD45Nh
而這，就是為什麼萊亞此刻又覺得有放棄、無力的感受。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsB28h90lF
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxh55xrvFYv
可能是因為如此，萊亞才回想起與長老爭論的各種回憶吧。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK16rRcaCbf
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lc4Zc5CVu
「還是一如既往地無聊呢。」萊亞此時坐在一座草原上，望著底下的樹林，雙腳懸空前後擺盪，像個小孩子坐在海邊巨大岩石上，眺望大海一般。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIGWZmKXBZ
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLg43LI0Ya
——巡邏呀。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYdoZK88Ej
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9tslG4vbZ
——就算說要巡邏，但這座山這麼大，到底要巡到什麼時候呢？270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWEnr1tr5h
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGEmxdyjtf
「……還是來睡覺、曬日光浴比較實在。」270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYOn4SuGV2
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIsHhvS4fO
萊亞打了個哈欠，往後躺下來閉上雙眼。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKJbrCPJuR
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Y8wBh7cQF
但就在這一刻，萊亞就聽到附近傳來不明聲響。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqLDxv1F6t
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOPQZkUm8P
這並不是小動物的聲響，事實上，萊亞也從味道聞出來了。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf44j2XOc1v
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSw1ECVt2B4
是邪龍族的士兵，而且還不是普通的士兵。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEkpdyLmZ6
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLQOjBpGBI
而且還數量很多的樣子。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtjagzGrem
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOxjfnV57t
——1、2、3……嗯嗯嗯，有10個高等級邪龍，大概是打不贏吧。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv36UlRaYCH
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnt6xc5hWt
萊亞如此心想，於是他翻了個身，讓自己的左側身體曬到太陽。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJr2kBzfGK1
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZjHtGK4Ik
「喂，正統龍族大人，你躺在那兒做什麼？」270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPBHaQAIiZ
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkI7Zs7iqWG
其中一名邪龍族士兵好像發話了。。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XbT6UFpnc
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLLamJ2r6l
聽口氣，萊亞覺得大概這位邪龍就是那群士兵的首領的樣子。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBrR2d5CPT
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuiaKz3sKhF
「不管怎樣，今天在本大爺的領導之下，這裡不允許有任何人妨礙那個大人找樂子。」270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaD4C15zO5r
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCx3moeU7HN
「……嗯？」270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCDVXuqzJE
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZtELgbAjv
——那個大人？誰呀？270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3fPjK61FX
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSBiAExu1c
萊亞沒有想這麼多，單純只是發出疑問而已。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqpZHPFq5Q
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh86iUTjVoh
證據就是，他在聽到那位邪龍族首領說話後，又翻個身子，這次是右側身體曬到太陽。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGs1GvaTxj
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldyWuvdz4Z
「喂！你有聽到嗎？可惡的正統龍族！」270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhRSuJsCAk
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBejKn5fji
「喔喔，有喔。」萊亞回。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQU7P2dv9y
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6SqU6PHpV
「你這廢物，還搞不清楚你跟我們這些強者的差異嗎？」270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzXIWzCkeh
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHXbd2WkTC
「……」270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuN1WS6DpW0
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXB2a4l4GXq
——啊啊，他好囉唆。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkO6Af3MBzz
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wqZYIwG7C
——既然要死，就該死的痛快一點。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1ACt01yAx
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1eFM9mhQT
——曬太陽死去好像也不錯呢。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JsJyKFDxR
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQ4VCLNCO6
「該死的東西，居然在我本大爺高興的宣佈之下，躺在那邊發呆？好，我就讓你感受一下我們偉大地龍的力量！」270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEk5E6zfd0
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6WiHh79kK
——地龍呀……270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSzrykRsXa
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDKk9QHbOC
天龍，是現代龍族的古時候的稱呼，現在的龍族只會在唸咒的時候說自己是天龍的後裔，一般都是自稱為正統。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡff6RCyPjrC
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSdaqAlISg
地龍，是古代龍族與天龍相對的龍族，他們的自尊極高，所以會時不時地說出自己和地龍始祖的關聯，無論有無在詠唱魔法。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkNobD4r1L
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsHphEkVNf
「沉穩又有智慧的地龍始祖呀……」270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yxhYjWYy8
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCCvRBmOfD
「請給予您的子民真正的力量……」270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgo1T5QrKWl
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICQV1Nen6E
那些邪龍士兵開始詠唱咒語，萊亞這個時候還是躺著的狀態。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bsNk3gioI
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3gIfdyzQ3
萊亞此刻給人的感覺，就是放棄到不能再放棄，也不為過的狀態，但是——那並不是放棄自己生命的那種放棄。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwm0mEnXrMQ
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8HyMKRW8w
「「「「「山崩地裂！」」」」」270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEyVqeK942
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGHob4Psjt
「「「「「地龍吐息！」」」」」270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpG4fPMeLP
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yeqd2kGtl
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3cDonWuwJ
「啊啊啊啊啊，無聊。」270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4b4fcrerRK
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1x9jOXSDNi
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfiHlBnOw4
轟！270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIc3hjVTQX
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8d4pLQJ5e8
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDN3KCCJeqL
邪龍族詠唱完魔法的瞬間，萊亞只是一個抬手，一揮，就將他們的魔法全部反射回去。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡft12jkNfwr
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qDDuYY0fe
塵埃飛揚，哀號聲也四起，但只是維持了一下子，就不再有任何聲響。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDae4XDvKT8
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldIsC1BMBd
——1個2個3個……嗯，正好十個。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4k8dHrNs5
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP48o4Oi3fF
——曬太陽就死去，果然很痛快吧。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIPjO90sTj
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiNJS7qSzt
「打不贏，沒錯，你們果然打不贏我。」270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA49nw9kEl3
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzHjyCIT9a
萊亞微笑，睜開眼睛，站起身子轉過去面向那群已經化成灰的士兵。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPCyg6gFVS
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNgUUPx87k
「爽不爽啊……唉呀，不會有人回答呢，我在幹麻？」萊亞說到這裡，轉過身子面向那堆緩緩落地並消去的塵埃，一手放到後腦勺。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxyaOpb97v
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Jkn1aAiiz
——好無聊。270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MxqdeVFxD
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFQEienlEg
——不過他們說的那個大人？是誰呢？嗯嗯嗯……270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUWc383uAe
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRujNPKTDJb
想到這裡，然後一如既往地，萊亞又打了個哈欠。
