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。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkIhmuJmQ9
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGcOmqfgoph
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。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuiarTgEVmz
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8nCflD7Dm
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。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWOmtgLFpd
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQocFULxl3
可是現在部份長老指示，龍族要幫助羅馬帝國的人民。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDqq0biIgz
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63dZzHgtqm
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。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsNdjVNtm6
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk00MGcpSOH
不過許多龍族士兵曾表明要和那些瞧不起人的蠻族幹架。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡel7fxeGlCS
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2MJFbqXP9
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。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7nh1UwdjVy
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgb4JCkaQsI
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。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QORiKZpzi
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpK8pRsuu8
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。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVN3fp8AJjM
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMqCbp5rx7
某種程度，萊亞並不想要使用自己那戰無不勝的能力。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DkStqds00
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvcZSeShvZ
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。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjCMAgCxBl
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34TaVxJlZ5
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。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡequAQe1sOB
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lJn6G6cyu
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。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrkcxLDfwM
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgB3paGw0Wp
萊亞被長老要求，要去做地方巡邏。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ny6CaR1ex
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxN6B1D0eV
巡邏是慣例，是每個龍族鬥士都需要去做的。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwv75ZsALE
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHMXO1U4fs
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。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPUmm8pXlc
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2unmmyc6h
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。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5CVrWjIua
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllacxHOClc
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。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdX1H92FLmO
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabNj6TzJow
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。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc39KkWrtGG
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEcedM6USm
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。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zdmTjxaYX
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXBV5MeSRI
而這，就是為什麼萊亞此刻又覺得有放棄、無力的感受。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡysWUzAXu6r
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHaKv7EeT8F
可能是因為如此，萊亞才回想起與長老爭論的各種回憶吧。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2i5XbzC8DA
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbq41KbspG
「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。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7YNH3s3aOk
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejvFP7H0Cz
——巡邏呀。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6W5lC0McaD
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9C27uz2Lmf
——就算說要巡邏，但這座山這麼大，到底要巡到什麼時候呢？287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZT2OBLKPd
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmmpakWMOz
「……還是來睡覺、曬日光浴比較實在。」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPD6bmYoKi
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvACUJPM7eY
萊亞打了個哈欠，往後躺下來閉上雙眼。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPfJbtJHBk
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDrXxlxHh6
但就在這一刻，萊亞就聽到附近傳來不明聲響。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jZwKmyesS
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVQnGzbdzA
這並不是小動物的聲響，事實上，萊亞也從味道聞出來了。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOqaecdYrI
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJ7wGFoMWe
是邪龍族的士兵，而且還不是普通的士兵。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRc5SPIgmI
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkHsCqz120
而且還數量很多的樣子。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiqZvTCDRe
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLq2Gcb213d
——1、2、3……嗯嗯嗯，有10個高等級邪龍，大概是打不贏吧。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3FNE2jK0I
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGz033tAKQM
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。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3FLFnh8ip
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDOCzGbTRW
「喂，正統龍族大人，你躺在那兒做什麼？」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWtzV7qjvg
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdnSx6gvYW
其中一名邪龍族士兵好像發話了。。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIYamK7BWI
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurQ7Dgptz8
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。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGVji5b4ZM
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllhczz3oFv
「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。」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtZzuL6OyH
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7f1c8n1wZp
「……嗯？」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAsyirrtbi
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhoYxAGeKj
——那個大人？誰呀？287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4CuBNcLLs
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8tRkHDZ7p
萊亞沒有想這麼多，單純只是發出疑問而已。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEc87buxjo
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjumqoLXIu
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。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXfGncb31H
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMOhqZXJyb
「喂！你有聽到嗎？可惡的正統龍族！」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHm9v1a1Yp5
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4CP44wZrx
「喔喔，有喔。」萊亞回。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbQZTtQmzF
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQN43LJvSJ
「你這廢物，還搞不清楚你跟我們這些強者的差異嗎？」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPMg0ueVkt
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpJmgUakJb
「……」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqenw4BatU
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1eKOOK7FoB
——啊啊，他好囉唆。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtDH519HWa
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshJwtHU7Rg
——既然要死，就該死的痛快一點。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkauehUReKM
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCDO8FhCDB
——曬太陽死去好像也不錯呢。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZoFJJNg5A
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3iJndC2tJP
「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！」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGJWouhDf4
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoEPUwvGLw
——地龍呀……287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkuR4OXs8r
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBS6XoObte4
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。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1SPgRThT2
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmo0eY6E8ij
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。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Sr91ZKYwa
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBatpMOj0fv
「沉穩又有智慧的地龍始祖呀……」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzA34gIEaC
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtgpcuDsbV
「請給予您的子民真正的力量……」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8Hbu1HMVX
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9clTn1PnTR
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。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRdIkQnGIkA
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBGyYbmPVq
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。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8MZEi8L7we
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjI3U4O0dt
「「「「「山崩地裂！」」」」」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwHwkc6PHE
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kJ4sKLdF2
「「「「「地龍吐息！」」」」」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1scArtYWf
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YjUrZKD9t
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wEz3cQZNc
「啊啊啊啊啊，無聊。」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡudZL4RAwQg
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQ7hHHIrmt
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlEjg7qges
轟！287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8qBnQ4nUS
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEI02Aojci6
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxG1dzJ7NUi
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。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0ayFROufW
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kwiR04aXx
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。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXUYatdUYK
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLkrCyk1Kg
——1個2個3個……嗯，正好十個。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFO5jaRuKf
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjM97rX5WN
——曬太陽就死去，果然很痛快吧。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORYtGWfO2w
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1pncQozj5
「打不贏，沒錯，你們果然打不贏我。」287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZG2n8KYJR
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yFq9qcC4F
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。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopQqcRojCV
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡffvDDaTGGk
「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。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡauOsrMu9Kx
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7cqR9jWP5
——好無聊。287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsSFZSphME
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWIhRQsVxU
——不過他們說的那個大人？是誰呢？嗯嗯嗯……287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotE1FDnYZy
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf59lo3LzMd
想到這裡，然後一如既往地，萊亞又打了個哈欠。
