I just realized my hometown was in Japan.
Of course, as soon as I saw the Japanese writing on the buildings, I knew it was Japan, but the realization hit me again.
I don't know why, but I had a feeling I would get entangled with the original storyline no matter what.
After all, if I didn't want to get involved, I wouldn't have taught Ravel or joined the Devil faction.
I would have just established my own faction somewhere unknown and gone around hunting other species.
...Ah, but I guess I would have gotten involved eventually.
Because I have to meet that bastard Azazel once and beat the crap out of him.
"Master! Let's go here! If we go up that tall tower, I think we can see the whole human world!"
Surprisingly, the most excited one among us was Ravel.
She was even more excited than Sera.
It seems that, being a young Devil, she hasn't visited the human world many times.
"Master! I want to go to that shiny shop too! It smells delicious!"
"Sure, sure. Let's go everywhere you want. Today is a day dedicated to playing."
"Oh yeah~!"
"Wow~!"
And so, we wandered around various places in Japan, eating delicious food and sightseeing.
Eventually, we ended up in Kyoto...
"Ah! Master, Kyoto is off-limits..."
Ravel suddenly tugged at my clothes and stopped me.
"Why?"
"This is the territory of Youkai. If other races enter without permission, they get attacked. We need to get a separate permit."
"Can't we get one now?"
"We probably can't since we didn't apply in advance... We Devils don't have a very good relationship with the Youkai..."
"Hmm..."
"Why? Do we really need something like that? Master, Youkai are weaker than us anyway! Let's just ignore it and go in!"
Sera said dismissively.
"Sera has a point. There is no need for us to heed the rules of beings weaker than ourselves, Master. Rules exist for the weak."
Hwaryeong nodded in agreement.
"That's a very dragon-like mindset."
I like it.
"Then let's ignore it and go sightseeing."
"Ehh...?! Ugh... I-It'll be fine, right! Since I'm with you and everyone else, Master!"
"Huh...? Since when did I become the position of common sense here?"
Ravel seemed to have been influenced by us eventually and followed cautiously.
Wendy looked flustered, sensing something was wrong, but seeing us all decide to just go for it, she followed along.
There's nothing that can't be solved with power, so it should be fine.
If it doesn't work, that just means my power is insufficient, so I just need to get stronger.
────────────────
...Or so I thought, until trouble broke out just an hour later.
"How dare you set your dirty feet in here! Devil!"
A large Oni Youkai suddenly appeared and blocked our path.
Wait... The only Devils here are Ravel and Wendy, who became a Reincarnated Devil. If only 2 out of 5 are Devils, isn't it wrong to just lump us all together as Devils?
"But you're quite rude. Look at the way you speak."
Boom──!
As soon as I finished speaking, Sera dashed out and blew away the Oni Youkai who pointed his weapon at me, leaving not even a corpse behind.
With a flash of blue light, the Oni turned into dust and vanished before he could even scream.
"...What?!?!"
"What did you just do!"
The other Youkai flinched, shocked that their comrade had died without even being able to react.
"We just wanted to sightsee quietly and leave, but you're the ones who picked a fight first, right?"
Crack──! Cr-r-rack──!
I slowly began transforming into my dragon form, instilling fear in the gathered Youkai.
Just as I was about to kill them slowly and painfully──.
"Waaaaiiiiit────!"
With a dazzling golden light from the sky, a buxom beauty with fox ears descended and blocked our path.
Wow...
Is that chest size for real?
I thought Sera, Hwaryeong, and Wendy had big chests, but she's even more...
This woman must be the leader of the Kyoto Youkai, Yasaka.
Returning to my human form, I asked Yasaka, who stood in my way.
"Seeing you come all the way here, did you come to die?"
"I apologize for the rudeness of my subordinates, Lord Chaos Dragon. Please, find it in your heart to forgive us."
Wait, even Youkai know me?
Just how far have rumors about me spread?
"With just words?"
"If you wish, you may have this body of mine..."
I'm not really interested in that.
If I were interested in that kind of thing, I would have touched the women beside me long ago.
"You cannot! Lady Yasaka!"
"You cannot defile your body for such a monster!"
The Youkai behind her shouted in horror.
Hey... that makes the monster listening feel bad...
"Noisy."
I flicked my finger lightly.
The Youkai hit by my magical power coughed up blood and were sent flying.
"Now, shall we talk again? How will you pay the price for offending my subordinates and disciple?"
I looked at Yasaka and smiled coldly.
Since they ruined a rare enjoyable trip, I should get at least this much out of it.
