I was accidentally injured by God and I just want to be an ordinary person

——The dragons have never had any objection to the fact that they have animal ears. It feels as natural as "the sun rises in the east". But from my point of view, I can only explain it as a setting in "F.Wing". In other games, dragons should usually be able to transform part of their body into the appearance of a giant dragon, or have dragon horns on their heads, which are relatively cool. Looking at Fukagami, the animal ears look like a part that was specially designed for cuteness. Rather than saying it is a racial characteristic, it is better to say that the designer deliberately made it this way. Of course, I don't mind it. Rather, as long as it is cute, there is no problem. I am not a person who pursues rigor or practicality.

"Well, I feel like even if I ask Fukagan, he'll just say something like, 'Senpai, is there anything wrong?' That would make me look weird, so I'll just keep this secret to myself."

Thinking of this, Ella suddenly felt someone patting her shoulder.

"Ella-chan, that Orichalcum-class is coming."

"Eh? Did they find Angelina?"

He couldn't help but frown inwardly. If the other party was really coming for Angelina, then he could only refuse with vague words like "The ability just now is limited and can only be used once a year."

"That's not necessarily the case, is it? Maybe he's just suspicious of us, or maybe he just wants to say hello."

"Does Elise have any ideas?"

"That's too easy. Just handle it yourself, Aira-chan."

Perhaps because she didn't want to talk to these people, Iris waved her hand and turned around to retreat near Shen Gan.

"You are... the Miss Ella that Mr. Sadler was talking about, right?"

Dyne, who had already come to Ella's side, had a thoughtful expression on his face.

In response to Dyne's greeting, Ella pretended to know nothing.

"Uh, yeah, what's wrong?"

"My name is Dyne, leader of this Orichalcum-ranked adventure group. I heard Lord Sadler mention you, and now that I've seen you, I've come to say hello. Judging from Miss Ella's appearance... you must be a noble from somewhere, right? Wait... purple eyes? Demon?"

"Does the demon clan make you unhappy?"

Camisia, who had been standing behind Ella, took a step forward. Although her tone was not angry, she was clearly dissatisfied.

"No, no, no... not at all. Although I was born in the Kingdom of Barris, I've long since shed my racial consciousness. I was just a little surprised."

As he spoke, Dyne began to look Ella up and down - not with the uncomfortable look of a vulgar person, but with a thoughtful look as if he was recalling something, as if he had seen Ella somewhere before.

"Mmm, this feels familiar. I feel like I've seen this somewhere before. Demon... Demon... This outfit, a healer? Could it be that Miss Ella is actually a healer!?"

Dain's handsome face instantly turned the color of liver. That look was not of fear of the unknown, but of fear that only comes when one knows exactly what the other person is and what kind of power he possesses.

Not quite understanding why Dyn had such a horrified expression, Ella tilted her head, causing her long golden hair to flutter.

"You're right to call her a healer, but what happened, Dyne-sama?"

"Demons... Healer... The new Demon King... I should have thought of this the moment I heard Sadler say it. It was so obvious... I felt so familiar just now. So this is the towering statue in the Eastern Demon Capital, Mistytin... Compared to her, the Orichalcum class is nothing but ants... And I was so proud of myself."

As if stimulated by something, Dyne kept muttering with his head down, and his appearance was no different from when he was in the illusion.

"Sir Dyne?"

In order to prevent people around from misunderstanding that she was the one who caused Dain to become like this, Ella stood on tiptoe and patted Dain on the shoulder, but this action made Dain tremble all over as if facing a great enemy. If it weren't for the burly warrior standing behind him, he would have definitely taken a step back just now.

"Sir Dyne?"

“Eh?! I-I’m here!”

"Captain, what's wrong with you?"

The soldier behind Dyne also noticed that something was wrong and tilted his head to look at Dyne.

Finally coming to his senses, Dain put his hand up to support half of his face and lowered his head so that people around him could not see his expression.

"No, nothing, I'm just a little surprised. It's an honor to meet Miss Ella here. The person next to you is your guard—oh no, partner?"

Despite lowering his head, Dyne raised his eyes to look at Camisia, who had asked the question in an impatient tone.

"Yes, they are my partners, not my guards as you think. Lord Dyne looks sick. Could it be that he is looking for me because he needs healing magic?"

"Red hair, twintails... a floor-length white dress. I haven't seen a portrait of her, but it must be that..."

"Sir Dyne? What did you say?"

"Ah, ah, no, it's nothing, Ma... no, Miss Ella... I'm not sick. I'm just a little uncomfortable with the battle with the undead I just witnessed."

Because he was so surprised, Dain even started to speak incoherently.

With an expression of sudden realization and deep understanding—and a hint of relief—Ella nodded.

"I see. I understand. 'Blessing of Sobriety', is this any better?"

He gently tapped the Pestle of Heavenly Punishment, and green light immediately flowed into Dain's body, making Dain calm down a little.

But it was obvious that the warrior behind Dain was not satisfied with his leader's performance. They had experienced several battles and this level of battle would not cause any discomfort at all.

"Captain, you're acting strangely today. Are you really feeling unwell? How could a battle of that magnitude—"

"Shut up!"

“Uh, yeah, yeah…”

Dyne's tone softened slightly after hearing his companion's apology.

"Sorry, I'll explain it to you later."

After saying this, Dyne turned his gaze back to Ella. Under the influence of the "Blessing of Awakening", he was no longer as panicked as before.

"Thank you for your magic, Miss Ella. I have a favor to ask."

"Hmm? I'll do my best as long as I can, okay?"

This is not a lie. Apart from being a little strange, there was nothing disgusting about Dyn's previous behavior, so it is okay to provide some convenience.

After thinking for a moment, Dain slowly bowed.

"Miss Ella, please don't use honorifics when addressing me. Just call me Dyne."

"Hey... then Dyne, just call me Ella."

“T-How can this be possible!?”

"Is there anything wrong with that?"

A look of doubt appeared on Ella's pretty face, but this expression did not give Dyne a sense of security at all.

"It's just my personal habit. I've never been good at calling people by their names since I was a child."

"Is that so... Then there's nothing we can do."

After all, there are all kinds of people in the world, and Dain's case is only mild and acceptable.

"Huh—I have one last question. Is this trip, Ms. Ella, just for fun?"

"Playing? Well, I guess so. Lord Dyne... What's up, Dyne?"

Seeing Dyne's expression almost breaking down when she called him "Sir", Ella immediately changed her words to Dyne.

Glancing at Camisia, who was much taller than Ella and had been standing next to him, Dyn wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"It's alright, Miss Ella, please continue. I'll do my best to protect you from any monsters."

"Protecting yourself from monsters... Dyne is Lord Sadler's ultimate fighting force, so we have to conserve our strength."

"I, I'll try my best."

"I will ensure Lady Ella's safety. Your name is Dyne, right? I admire you."

"Yes! Yes! It's my great honor!"

Camisia's words brought an ecstatic look to Dyne's face, to such an extent that one even wondered if he would jump for joy in the next second.

"Well, I'll take my leave now. According to my discussion with Master Sadler, we shouldn't encounter a strong opponent next time. Our next battle might be directly against the guy underground. Miss Ella, please be careful."

"Yeah, Dyne too."

Ella bent her knees slightly, lifted the hems of her skirt, and performed an ordinary aristocratic salute to Dain, but Dain simply moved aside. In addition to cold sweat, there was a bitter look on his handsome face.

"Please don't be like this, Miss Ella. I'm just an ordinary commoner, and I can't bear the etiquette of aristocrats. So, I wish you a pleasant journey, Miss Ella."

"Ahh, thank you."

After confirming that Ella nodded, Dain turned around awkwardly. During the process, one could see Dain kicking the soldier, but considering that it was the other party's own business, Ella did not ask any more questions.

After the brief conversation, Ella turned around and looked at her companions.

"Haha—luckily, I didn't recognize Angelina. I don't know why all those monsters underground have fled deep underground. Next time, I might really have to fight the mastermind behind this. I better be prepared."

"No problem~"

Angelica's energetic answer made Ella feel a little uneasy. She sighed subconsciously and murmured softly.

"I hope Entarosphiel doesn't have to appear."

*Ella's healer character design has been revealed~ In the last chapter of the character design volume~

Chapter 77: Mutation

*Genesis 6187 April 10th, 15:55 PM, Morabi City Underground Tower 30th Floor

Although no one has ever reached the bottom of the underground tower, according to the currently known information, the underground tower is at least 70 stories deep. According to the information left by the sages who explored it, the 30th and 60th floors are guarded by giant creatures whose levels far exceed those of ordinary monsters. It is an area that ordinary people cannot approach. However, judging from Sadler's current expression, the facts are completely different from the records.

“What the hell just happened…?”

Sadler frowned and kept looking around as he gave the order to rest.

Apart from the voices of the soldiers, the entire 30th floor—or rather, from the time the Death Knight was eliminated until now—was unusually quiet. Not only had they not encountered any monster attacks along the way, but not even the shadow of a monster was seen. It was as if the monsters had been moved away or cleared out long ago.

Another person who noticed something was wrong was Dain who was standing next to Sadler. Since the latter had discovered Ella's identity, he no longer had the confidence he had at first.

"Could it be that the monsters here clashed with the undead and were wiped out by the undead?"

Dyne's words made Sadler squat down, pick up a piece of gravel from the ground and sniff it.

"Impossible. There are so many monsters in the underground tower, and the one originally stationed on the 30th floor is a level 32 'Puppet Colossus'. Even the undead can't defeat them all. Besides, even the small insect monsters have disappeared here... Maybe someone moved all the monsters away—right?"

"Lord Sadler himself doesn't believe it, does he? Not to mention that teleportation magic requires the consent of the recipient. First of all, it's impossible to move so many monsters. Even forbidden spells can't do that on that scale."

"Forbidden Spell Level... Indeed, even sixth-level magic cannot accomplish this, but the facts are before our eyes now."

Crushing the stone in his hand, Sadler raised his head and observed carefully as if he was looking for something.

Seeing this, Dyne couldn't help but want to suggest that Sadler retreat, but as soon as he thought of the existence of a huge power behind him, he couldn't help swallowing the words that were on the tip of his tongue - if he could show something here, his team might be able to gain a certain status among the demons, and if they encountered any extraordinary difficulties, Camisia, the executioner known as the pinnacle of warriors, could easily solve them.

Of course, whether that adult would help him when he was in danger was another matter.

Sadler was stunned by the lack of new discoveries.

"It seems the guy underground is much stronger than expected. He must be at least level 40 or even 50."

After a pause, as if making some extremely difficult decision, Sadler frowned and sighed deeply.

"Dyne, let's go back. This matter is beyond our ability to handle. I will report it to the church's higher-ups. As for the remuneration, I will pay it in full."

"Uh, well, if you say so, Master Sadler, I have no objection, but... has Master Sadler thoroughly investigated the adventurers in the group?"

Dain had no objection to Sadler's decision. Although he had just thought that he would be appreciated if he performed well here, the premise of everything was based on being able to survive. Faced with monsters that were far stronger than himself, he was always in a dilemma between going back and going deeper. At this time, no matter what Sadler said, it would be like the last straw that broke the camel's back.

As for why he asked Sadler whether he had investigated the adventurers in the team, it was an indirect way to ask him whether he knew about the existence of the Demon King. From Dain's observation along the way, Sadler seemed to be unaware that there was such a person in the team.

Sadler was stunned by Dyne's words.

"The adventurers in the team? What happened to them? To prevent undercover agents, I've decided to avoid hiring undead adventurers."

"Is that so... I'm fine now."

It seems that Sadler really doesn't know the existence of the Demon King.

Dain couldn't help but feel certain in his heart.

After making the decision, Sadler's gloomy face couldn't help but become a little brighter.

Since it is certain that the other party is above level 40 or even 50, the matter has escalated to the point where the Pope must intervene personally to resolve it. In that way, even those who are eyeing his position as city lord will have no excuse to blame him - it has nothing to do with him, he only needs to conduct some investigation and report it in time.

"Hahaha, Lord Dyne, please go back."

"Ah, yes."

Nodding to each other, Dyne and Sadler each put down the burden in their hearts, took a last look at the hall that should have been the boss's room, and turned to walk towards the soldiers sitting on the ground.

……

"Princess, something's happening."
