Chapter 116
116: TROUBLE
Ever since Mile came back from the ruins, Mile was in trouble.
(Mile’s inner thought for the whole chapter)
I wonder what I should do now.
That drawing in the ruins. It’s probably an illustration of the 『Lost civilization』that God was talking about.
I don’t know why the Ancient Dragon Race began their investigation of the ruins now.
Do they want to study history?
Do the Ancient Dragons have a predisposition to studying the history of human beings, and the history of that civilization which existed in the past?
Are they really studying archeology and history?
And it’s not just 1 or 2 Dragons doing archeology as their favorite things. But their whole clan or race.
They won’t get any benefit and it also wasn’t their history …
And if what they want to do are archeology and history, that picture should be valuable material.
At least, it’s not a bad thing to ignore and conclude it as a 『Miss』
Then, what is their real intention?
Why did the Ancient Dragon Race want to investigate ruins in various places?
They also even involved the Beastkin race and Devil race.
Gold, silver, gems, treasure, … ?
…But did the whole Ancient Dragon race investigate ruins for such things?
Well, in many of Earth’s stories, many people think Dragons love treasure and shiny thing.
However, in this world, I have never heard of such a story.
Perhaps in those stories on Earth, that setting was attached to raise the reason and motivation to beat the Dragon.
Ancient Dragons isn’t like a crow, that likes collecting shiny things and puts it in their nests …
Or in terms of humans on earth, one would be known as a『Treasure Hunter』, or to say it in a worse way, more like a 『Robber』
Well, in this world, because there wasn’t any owner or someone managing the ruins, it won’t be called 『Stealing』
Anyway, the Ancient Dragons weren’t aiming for treasure either.
So, if they weren’t interested in academic investigations or things that human regarded as treasure, what did the Ancient Dragons want?
…there’s only 1 reason left. That was the Relics.
It’s not about jewels or works of art, but rather something that can be used.
In other words, it’s a technical inheritance.
Such a relic may remain in a usable state if they are kept in a time suspension field or in a dimensional storage facility like my item box, etc.
The lost civilization was way more advance than the technical capabilities of earth, so whatever happened that destroyed that civilization, it’s not to be taken lightly.
But why do the Ancient Dragons looking for such things?
Currently, the Ancient Dragon is said to be the strongest in the world, so why do they want such a thing?
Besides, the Ancient Dragon is a creature of their own pace, they won’t think about anything like world conquest.
I do not understand…
Relying on them too much isn’t good, but it can’t be helped. Let’s just ask them some question.
(Nano-chan?) (Mile)
『Yes!』 (Nano)
(Do you know the intention of the Ancient Dragons? ) (Mile)
『Yes』 (Nano)
(Ehh?) (Mile)
『But that’s a prohibited matter』 (Nano)
(Eh…?) (Mile)
Did Nano-chan refuse?
『We can read the most of any living creature by receiving the thought wave of that creature.
Though we can’t read everything in their minds.
Still, we can judge to some extent the intent of that creature.
Still we only had attention about what was already put into words.
Regardless of our duties, that info will be uploaded to the network otherwise that said info will only remain in the memory of those nano-machines who heard it.
And if we are searching for that info from the network, we will be able to get the relevant information.
In this case, If I’m searching, I will get some sort of information from the other Nano-machines which are at the village of the Ancient Dragons.
However … 』(Nano)
(However? ) (Mile)
『We can only provide un-prohibited matter. And the info you want in this case is completely prohibited』 (Nano)
(Is this such a serious thing? ) (Mile)
『It does not matter whether it’s serious or not.
We aren’t allowed to reveal that kind of information.
Living beings have their right for discretion.
Sometimes those secret might affect the survival of the whole race.
Our mission is to fulfill the desires of the received thought wave.
Whether it belongs to a good person or a bad person.
And whether the content is good or bad.
We are only tools and we will not do anything with our own will.
Just like a kitchen knife can be used for cooking or for murder without the kitchen knife intention.
Anyway, we aren’t allowed to tell anyone about the information of any particular Race.
The result of simple magic such as checking the enemy’s position with detection magic, etc. will be another story, so there is no problem』(Nano)
(is that so…) (Mile)
With that explanation, I was satisfied.
That’s right. Otherwise, if an individual reaches level 3, they themselves can talk with Nano-chan.
That individual can easily get all the information about his enemies and allies, and he can easily conquer the world.
As expected, it won’t be easy.
There’s no choice but to check about it by myself.
(Thank you. See you later, I’ll think about myself) (Mile)
『I am sorry that I can’t help this time』 (Nano)
Well, what to do …
I have no obligation.
Regardless of what the Ancient Dragon is looking for, whatever it is supposed to be.
But somehow, I feel unpleasant.
Because it’s only me that understands the situation to some extent on the human side.
Or is it because only me that can compete against the Ancient Dragon?
But the Ancient Dragons didn’t seem to want conflict.
Because they didn’t want to be disturbed by humans, maybe they had an unexpected, peaceful intention.
Also, although I managed to compete against three Ancient Dragons this time, those three must be quite weak after all. A mid-rank Dragon, an apprentice and an Elder’s Daughter.
There’s no guarantee that next time we need to fight against the real warrior of the Ancient Dragon or all of the Ancient Dragons with beastkins and devil race as well.
Even though I am now involved in extraordinary things, I am only seeking happiness as an average girl. I feel rather confused with these events. With all my heart, I have finally made friends …
Also, the future of this world should be decided by the big shots in this world.
Handling this world’s problem with the knowledge from another world is a big no-no.
However.
『… For that reason, This world had been judged as a big failure, there’s no-one left to take care of it
…
…
We also feel a little responsible for it』 (God)
The God surely said so.
This is a world with great failure. No God looked after them, and everything was decided by this world inhabitants.
Even if this world is at stake, there will be no 『Salvation from God』
