Oh no. Why?!

Why didn’t anyone tell me?

’Cause you didn’t follow the show!

Evil Dragon

Episode 07

You must not waste food!

Here we are. That’s your hotel.

Thank you so much.

Old me surely would’ve gone lost on my own.

Don’t mention it. Just be sure to leave
first thing in the morning.

Otherwise I … er, no,
the saint will make you regret it!

Too bad, old me would’ve wanted
to stay another couple of days.

I understand. Now you should hurry
and fix the barrier.

That slipped my mind!

I’ll fix it at onc…

Err no, I’ll go and tell the saint
to fix it immediately!

Her acting skills are
about as bad as Lingzis.

I should get to the hotel and grab a bite.

What are you doing there, Lingzi?

Welcome back, great evil dragon.

As you ordered,
I stayed here obediently.

But I must try much harder to reach the level
of "obedient" you were talking about.

W-What level?!
There was no deeper sense in my words!

Don’t be so hard to yourself.

Oh, right. There’s kids
about your age here in Selianen.

Why don’t you go
play with them tomorrow.

Is it because I have not reached
the obediency-level?

Is that why you don’t want me
beside you anymore?

N-No, no, don’t worry.
I never meant to say that.

Old me just wants you
to play with children of your age.

Don’t worry, they’re all good kids.

But, great evil dragon,
these humans worship a demon as their god.

I cannot bring myself to trust them.

Demon? You mean the saint?

Yes. You surely must have felt it, too.

This saint who installed the barrier

is actually just a demon
who can manipulate water and mud.

Yet they worship her as a god.
How should they be good people?

Well, you worship me
as evil dragon, don’t you?

Don’t always just look
at the bad side of things.

If you meet the saint you’ll see
that she’s not a bad person.

Anyway, it’s late already,
we should get some sleep.

Great evil dragon,
are you not sleeping on the bed?

Human beds don’t suit old me.

I’ll be just fine sleeping here.

Turn the lights off.

Right, great evil dragon.

Lingzi, go sleep on the bed.

The bed is high. I would not dare
to position myself higher than you are.

Guess I’ll lay out a mattress for her.

So this is Selianen, the town that
good-for-nothing failed to conquer all along?

Such a whimsy barrier
might as well not even exist!

But it seems the barrier
has been weakened quite a bit.

Did something happen to the saint?
Or could she be trying to lure us in with this?

Tch, there’s nothing
to fear from this barrier.

I’ll land inside the town
in front of all the citizens tomorrow.

You talk big,
but why don’t you do it right now?

As the demon king’s loyal right hand,
I must face the enemy upfront.

Never will I stoop to cowardly measures
like secret night-raids.

Tch. Look at you
all shiny and visible in your armor!

You’re just too dumb
to use your head, that’s all!

Well, suit yourself.

However for this mission
the credits will be mine alone!

Good morning!
Your breakfast is ready.

Should I bring it in?

Hallo? Anyone there?

Oh, it’s morning already.

The night was much too short.

Sorry for disturbing!

No one reacted to my calls, so I just…

How dare you disturb the great evil
dragon’s rest! That’s unforgivable!

Stop that, Lingzi!
Apologize to her, now!

My, my, little guest,
quite enthusiastic, are we?

What are you scheming?!

N-Nothing, I just wanted
to bring you breakfast.

Our hotel has prepared this meal for you.

Come to think of it,
isn’t the weather perfect for travelling?

Who wouldn’t want to leave town
first thing in the morning?

Listen, holy saint, you don’t
have to urge us like that to leave.

Saint?

I assume you’re joking.
I’m just a normal human hotel servant.

No, she’s not.

Didn’t she realise
how much water she spilled

when Lingzi attacked her? Because of that
she shrunk, no human could do such a thing!

W-Well, anyway, I kindly ask you to eat
and then leave this town after that.

I gathered the children’s veggie-leftovers
from the garbage yesterday.

Well? I’m sure you can’t wait to dig i…

Help!

Damn, she got away!

Not again, Lingzi!

She dared to serve you garbage as food!
That’s clearly an offense!

Listen to old me, Lingzi.

I want you to be of a nature
that is befitting for those of power.

"Of power"? "Nature"?

That’s right. You are now my disciple.

Use your power where it’s needed,
not to start useless fights all the time.

Wasting edibles is something
old me will never tolerate for any reason.

You have gone too far this time.

As long as you are
not sufficiently aware of this,

you must not use your powers without
my permission, except for self-defense.

Do you understand?

Oh no, did I say that too harshly?

Lingzi, dear, no reason to get gloomy.

Just try to be a little more aware
in the future.

Forgive me, great evil dragon.

My nature is far from what would be
worthy of being your disciple.

I … have dissappointed you.

I’m glad,
she is able to self-reflect, after all.

Lingzi, I am not disappointed at all.

On the contrary, I am very grateful
to have you as my disciple.

Besides, you’re still young.
You still have so much time to learn and grow.

Enough of that. Seeing you so gloomy
makes old me become sad, too.

Oh right, remember the children
I mentioned yesterday?

You should go and play with them.

It’s important to get used
to human customs.

Right! I’ll be sure to fulfill this mission!

No, not like that.
Try to relax a little.

Have fun!

Now I must hurry and
find the saint to explain it to her.

I just hope she doesn’t make me pay
for the broken tray and floor.

Huh?

W-What’s going on?!

No, don’t … Stop dragging me down!

Help … Hel…!

Ling…

The great evil dragon’s aura has vanished?!

No, I must fulfill my mission and
play with the human children first.

There’s miss animal trainer!

Hm? Where’s the cute little dragon?

"Cute little dragon"?

Yeah, that tiny one
that played with us yesterday.

Let’s see who finds him first!

And then we’ll play ball all together.

Yeah, let’s do it!

Will you join us, miss animal trainer?

So besides big and strong dragons
like my great evil dragon

there are also pet-dragons
that play with human children?

All right, I’m in and I’ll win this!

How do you like that?
Agonizing, is it?

I’ve gathered the enchanted water
of the whole town in this place!

Prepare yourself, evil dragon!

I will protect Selianen, even if I have
to drown along with you in this ocean.

This is bad. She wants to k*ll us both.

I can’t even surrender,
because I cannot speak underwater.

Lingzi, were are you?!

Little dragon? Where are you?

What’s that?!

I knew it, this ramshackle barrier
doesn’t even withstand one blow.

You foolish humans!

Prepare to feel the wrath
of the demon king’s army!

Oh, there you are.
You must be that cute little dragon, right?

Come play with me.
