It's time to move out of bed, take a bath, and probably eat breakfast… I wonder what should we do today? Probably we'll go explore the goblin dungeon? Not like we got any fixed schedule or anything, we are just living freely and doing whatever we want- Eh?

And then, suddenly the chief of the lizardmen tribe I am taking care of reported me something unusual… Hundreds of lizardmen from the depths of the jungle were moving to the borders of the jungle… What are these guys planning to do?

Apparently, something is going on with the "savage" lizardmen at long last, they had been moving for a while but I have chosen not to do anything against them because it would be dangerous for the lizardmen and I don't want to risk their lives, also, they appear to not be interested in the Pastoralist at all, and ignore them completely, so there was little reason to start a conflict where there wasn't any. And since the Pastoralist started to live around Fuyu that the lizardmen from the depths of the jungle had not even gotten closer to them anymore, even now, they still try to evade the area where Fuyu is, scared of the powerful presence she emanates.

However, lately, Kraxka reported me that they had begun to become more common around the outskirts and borders of the entire jungle, this means that they're moving around indiscriminately, in hundreds. It appears that they're planning to do something, and what I fear is that these insane lizards might try to attack the Orange Village, capture it, use as their outpost, and probably as a fortress, and then attempt an attack into the duchy.

Of course, that seem highly unlikely to succeed, this duchy is protected by a massive wall, and there are a lot of soldiers and sect disciples who are all quite strong, there is no way that normal lizardmen can really win against a well organized army of people from here, even if their bodies are tougher and they might be good at wielding heavy weapons, the people here got magic weapons, better armor that can compare to their scales, organized fighting styles, and developed magic capabilities unlike the more primitive usages of magic of lizardmen, sometimes they only know a handful of spells, while even soldiers here know a basic dozen of their respective element.

With all of the chances to win, that doesn't mean that the Orange Village will be able to pull through it, they have way less numbers, their walls are only made of wood, and they might get easily conquered even with a lot of lizardmen casualties, most of the people in the village would probably get slaughtered indiscriminately though… Should I do something? Should I act, or ignore everything and continue with my life? Well, if I tell authorities about it… But would they believe some random guy showing up and telling them all of this? It is a bad idea, they would only try to question me saying how I know so much and might even try to find out that I have friendly relationships with those they consider as monsters… Hm, this is a complicated decision to have in the middle of the morning. I really just want to slack off… But I cannot really let this slide.

At most I will have to tell the Village, so we'll probably move there and help them prepare, the duchy and the village seem connected but the duchy doesn't care that much about small villages surrounding their nation, it is quite apparent in how they barely send any security there or don't even care about any sort of affair they have there. And… Hm, oh! I can use the excuse of being an adventurer to join the fight, yeah? Doesn't sound so bad to me… Although we need to quickly move there now that it still in the morning. The lizardmen are also carrying some sort of strange new weapons and armor that my slimes and Kraxka said that had "ominous auras" so we'll see what's that about, perhaps these equipment was made by this mysterious Scaled God, which I think is the bastard behind this and the culprit of everything going on. He probably is doing all of this in the background for some reason, and he surely doesn't have good intentions, despite being a Dragon, it doesn't mean he's innately a good-aligned being.

After waking up, I decided to wake up Benladann, and while Benladra was still sleeping, I told her about everything that was happening. Benladann grew concerned but at the end she was also willing to fight at my side, now that she wasn't pregnant she had more will to fight than before, and she was very strong so it would come in handy to have somebody like her around me or around the people while I am not there.

"I see, then let me help you out…" She said. "I think we should move out after breakfast right away, those lizardmen doesn't seem as friendly as the other ones we saw… And if that ominous aura is something weird, it could be similar to the equipment and armors you make for us, but made by that dragon. Maybe that dragon is a dark element one?"

"I don't really know, but could be? I have never thought about dark element dragons, but there is a dragon for every element there is, apparently, so there might be a possibility for that to be the case…" I sighed.

After that, we quickly took a family bath with a sleepy Benladra who had wanted to sleep a bit more, and then we had a breakfast with the rest of my group, where we spoke about our plans, after deciding to go back to the Orange Village, we quickly made our way out of the duchy and into the road, where we traveled over a carriage moved by Frost, who was incredibly fast. In just a few minutes we arrived at the village, which was still as peaceful as I remember it. However, I could feel an ominous aura coming from within the depths of the forest far away.
