Chapter 136 - Cleaner Desu…Calm Down, Me!
The weather has become a little warmer though it’s not enough to melt the snow.
Even so, it made my morning rounds easier.

On my way to check Eco in the lake, I glanced at the square…everyone seemed okay.
They seem to have somehow understood that they shouldn’t use magic when it is still morning.
This is something I did my best to tell them this winter.
If only we could communicate.
I want a smartphone translation app.
No, I think there was a toy in Japan that could understand how dogs feel.
If I can use that…ah, no, we still can’t communicate that way.

Is there any magic that can help?
….I have no idea.
If I had the knowledge of manga and drama like my little sister, I would have come up with something already.
I guess I should have listened to my little sister a little seriously.
….can you remember something you heard even if you’re not interested in it?
Impossible.

My job experience is useless in this world too.
I work as a cleaner….of mansions.
When I go somewhere to clean up and a very beautiful person comes out, I’ll be surprised. I was like that at first.
I’m also amazed with their eating habits. It’s easy to tell once you see their garbage.
I work for a professional cleaning company and well…it was fun.
We had to pack up garbage and take them away in a way where no neighbors would find out.
We even have to change our clothes so that we wouldn’t be recognized as cleaners.
On the other hand, I experienced being a very high-class cleaner…it was fun.
I wonder who took over my clients?
…oh well.

Ah, the lizards are all here.
The place before Eco is busy.
The little one who came with the drone clairvoyance seems to be someone they know.
It’s a very low-profile lizard and its magical power also feels elusive.
-0-
….Areh?
Looking closer at Eco, I can feel that magical power is covering the lizards.
Looking at the flow of the magical power, it seems to be coming out of Eco.
What are they doing?
As I was checking them out, I felt a gust of wind.
I closed my eyes and waited for the wind to stop.
「Fuh」
I look at the lizards again….lizards….?
….seriously?
….they’re not lizards.
Then….now way….given their shapes….dragons?
-0-
They are the same dragons carved on the ceiling of a temple or on a loading screen.
No, their faces are more charming than those but, is this for real? They are dragons….
…ugh, calm down, me…relax.
I’m in a different world, it’s not surprising to see dragons.
Yeah, there’s nothing wrong with seeing dragons at all.
…however, isn’t it strange that dragons look so fluffy when they are little?
No, that’s not the problem here….so, what’s the problem?
Their growth rate is too fast…look at them now…no, is this really a problem?
-0-
Calm down!
-0-
Dragons exist in this world.
That’s pretty much okay.
And these creatures in front of me are dragons.
And I’m pretty sure they are dragons since….they look like dragons.
Fluffy, Flying Lizard, Marshmallow, red yarn ball, and the newcomer.
They are my companions.

I was able to calm down a bit….or so I thought.

I look at the small dragons in front of me.
I say small but they are bigger than me.
They are smaller compared to the dragons I’ve read about.
-0-
They are beautiful.
When they were still lizards, they already had scales but weren’t as shiny as they are now.
And when they were still balls of fluff, they didn’t have scales.
Now that they are dragons, their scales are shiny and they look like they are surrounded by a gentle light.
Yeah, they are beautiful.
-0-
….can we still be friends even if they became dragons?
-0-
I can only think of them being creatures of solitude.
Perhaps this will be the time they’ll say goodbye.

A dragon approached me and I became a little nervous.
It sends its head closer to me….and I pet it like I always do.
….it seems like there’s no problem.
-0-
It closes its eyes as if it feels good.
Given how its magic feels and its pale blue scales, Fluffy?
Marshmallow and Flying Lizard came close to me too and bowed in order for me to be able to pet them.
Good.
As I pet them in turn, the other two came closer.
The red dragon was the red yarn ball and the one with shiny opal scales was the newcomer.
I pet them one by one and…they seem to like it.
No problem.

…Ah, their names are too different from what they look like and they’re not even lizards….
