Chapter 1228: Dragon Egg



Arriving in the Hanging Garden of Babylon, there were two guests who had appeared inside this place.

"Oh-ho, so this is the one which is known as the strongest human."

The one who had said it was the former of Dragon King, Tannin.

fifteen meters tall, gigantic western Dragon, and while also standing using two of his legs.

Tannin was looking at Yuuki curiously since it was his first time seeing such a strong human.

"Yo, Crom."

Yuuki greeted someone that he was familiar with in the past.

"Let's have a duel," Crom Cruach said.

Crom Cruach was the dragon that Yuuki had met in the past and fought for a while. He didn't show his dragon appearance, but only using his human appearance.

"I'm busy, maybe next time," Yuuki said.

"Ok." Crom Cruach nodded.

"...."

Tannin was surprised by their interaction.

"What's wrong? Did you call me because both of them come to this place?" Yuuki said.

"That's right, nyaa! They wanted to entrust something to Ophis," Kuroka said.

"Entrust something?" Yuuki was curious while looking at Tannin.

Tannin smiled and showed them an egg. "This is an egg from Spectre Dragon. It has been a while since such a rare thing was born to this world, and I want you to take care of this egg for me."

"Why?" Vali asked. He didn't really understand why Tannin wanted to leave this egg to them.

"Because the air in the underworld is not suited for hatching the egg, and you guys are the only ones who are strong enough to protect it," Tannin said.

"...."

They looked at each other then noticed Ophis who looked at the egg curiously.

Tannin looked at the inside of the Hanging Garden of Babylon and asked, "Did you build this flying fortress yourself?" He looked at Yuuki in surprise since he knew that this flying fortress was very powerful.

"Yes."

Yuuki nodded in response. He looked at Ophis and asked, "Ophis, do you want to take care of this egg?"

Ophis looked at Yuuki and nodded. He was hugging the egg carefully showing that she would take care of this egg herself.

"..."

Everyone looked at each other since it might be the first time they saw Ophis to show what she wanted to do.

They looked at each other and weren't sure what to do for a while. Then they looked at Yuuki for some reason.

"Well, just keep it if you want it," Yuuki said.

Ophis was expressionless, but for some people, they could see that she was really happy with her body language.

"But is it alright to keep it here since we have often gone out," Arthur said.

They knew what Arthur meant and that was they were too worried to leave the dragon egg to Ophis.

"If it's in Asia then it's good," Yuuki said.

"Why do you need to mention Asia-Chan here, nyaa?" Kuroka asked.

"Because she is a very talented dragon tamer," Yuuki said.

Tannin nodded and said, "I have also heard that beautiful young girl who has even tamed Fafnir and other Evil Dragons who have been reincarnated by Qlippoth."

After the attack of Auros, there were a lot of Evil Dragons who had gathered around Asia and all of them started to become closer to her as if they wanted her to tame her.

Yuuki was also surprised at that time, but when he thought that this girl was the girl who had tamed one of the Five Dragon Kings, Fafnir. He didn't think much and thought that everything was possible.

Ophis who heard their conversation thought that she might not have a chance to take care of this egg and showed a bit of distress. Even though she was expressionless, her body was slightly hung and felt confused about whether she should place or take the egg.

Everyone who saw Ophis couldn't handle seeing Ophis have such a reaction and even Vali who usually only cared about a fight was also quite troubled to see Ophis have such a reaction.

"You can take care of the egg," Tannin hurriedly said since he didn't expect for Ophis to love it that much.

Ophis nodded and sat down on Yuuki's lap while bringing the dragon egg. Her head turned upturn then looked at him for a long time.

Stare!

Ophis kept staring at Yuuki without saying anything.

Yuuki sighed and patted Ophis's head. "If you're worried about the dragon then take it to my house since my place is very safe."

Not that he was arrogant, but his barrier was strong and its defensive system might be among the strongest in the supernatural world. It also used emotion detection to detect its enemy as long as someone showed hostility, anger, and every negative emotion then they would disappear.

If someone is strong enough then they might be able to hold on for a while and use that chance to run away, but if that someone is as strong as Sirzech or one of the top 10 strongest beings in the world then this barrier could buy him time to come back.

Ophis nodded and hugged the dragon egg.

"......."

Everyone didn't know why but when they saw Ophis who was hugging this dragon egg, they felt that their heart turned very peaceful and wanted to hug her for some reason.

"Let me hug you, nyaa!" Kuroka said.

"M - Me too!" Le Fay said and walked toward Ophis.

Jeanne also walked toward them since she wanted to tease this cute dragon.

Walburga, the newest member, also joined in.

Arthur, Bikou, and Vali decided not to do anything since it wasn't their style to hug someone.

Yuuki brought Ophis along with the egg to his house, but suddenly he received another call and this time it was from Rias who told him that the group of exorcists had come to her city to challenge them.

"........"
