So I'm a Snake, Who Cares

Pretending to be a baby wyvern.

Pushed for flight training and falling to death.

Grand prize winner in the category of World's Most Foolishly Dead Snake!

As fierce wind struck my face.

As the dizzying sensation of falling spread through my body with a tingle.

That's what I thought.

'Isil, at least you survive.'

If it falls while attached to my body, Isil might get badly hurt too.

Light-bodied Isil would be fine if it separated.

But who knew it would understand words so quickly.

Were you that smart?

Whoosh!

Like a fighter jet's cockpit being emergency ejected.

Isil whooshed off my body.

'Isil...!'

What is this feeling of betrayal?

This traitor chimera plant.

Still. Live happily.

Even without me, well.

Since it's too barren here.

Go a bit further south.

Stay with the triplets for now, until you grow a bit more.

Would these words reach Isil?

It seemed they could.

Because 'Resonance lv2' was still working.

Isil's vine hands only work when touching my body... Ah!

'Isil!'

It hadn't run away alone.

It had 'jumped up' while keeping its vine hands on my body.

The reason for that was.

"Peeee!"

Pipi, who had already become quite accustomed to flying, came flying this way.

I could feel her determined will to save her youngest brother.

But no matter what, this was flight learned just today.

It would be difficult to catch me falling rapidly.

Here, Isil's bold decision helped.

Its long extended vine wrapped around Pipi's neck like a leash.

Strong tension was applied to my falling body.

"Sak!"

For a moment I thought my spine would all break.

Fortunately, Isil's vines had elasticity.

I bounced up high.

This time there was a place to land.

The place I landed with a thud was on Pipi's back.

"Peeee!"

She roared as if proud.

Amazingly, she started flying while carrying me.

"Kekeke."

"Chuik!"

Kei and Chui also followed alongside.

The wyvern triplets, one snake, and one vine grass flying.

"To be this skilled on their first flight. I guess wyverns really are princes of the sky."

So they were princes of the sky.

In fact, the three performed something like formation flying, albeit clumsily.

I was someone who really disliked flying.

Thanks to Potential 20 I could learn flying skills but there was a reason I didn't.

Because I had no wings from birth so I couldn't control direction even if I flew, and I was instinctively scared of heights.

However, now...

'...This is fun!'

I was enjoying flying through the sky.

Pipi's back wasn't very wide but it was enough for me to ride on.

Originally it would have been scary with nothing to hold onto without hands and feet, but now Isil was attached tightly to me.

Isil's vine wrapped around Pipi's neck felt like reins.

It feels like I've become a wyvern rider.

Actually, that was correct.

'Let's go up!'

Whether she noticed the slight pull on the reins. nøvel.coɱ

Or whether my will got through because I had tamed her.

Pipi whooshed upward.

I could see the wyvern mom watching with a pleased expression from that nest above.

Though she probably hadn't predicted this would happen.

Seeing her happy makes me feel good too.

The baby wyverns started getting properly accustomed to flight.

The eldest sister Pipi was brave so her style was aggressive, and the second child Kei was the fastest among them.

'Let's switch rides, Isil!'

The moment Isil extended one vine long toward Kei, I leaped up.

It was a bit dangerous but a cool stunt.

This time I rode on Kei and tried high-speed flight.

'If we add magic...'

「Using Basic Elemental Magic: Fire lv7.」

I shot a fireball.

You know what?

If you fire a 100km/h BB gun straight ahead from a car going 100km/h.

The BB gun's speed becomes 200km/h!

Is that right? Anyway, it must be something like that.

The fireball that normally flew slowly shot much faster.

Bang!

The fireball hitting and exploding on a stone pillar.

A sufficiently powerful strike.

'Next to Chui!'

"Chuiiik!"

I jumped from Kei and landed on the youngest's back.

The youngest who had succeeded in flight alone when we all fell from the nest before.

Indeed, Chui's flight was the most technical among the three.

Diving steeply then spinning once in mid-air was nothing short of acrobatic flight.

Usually such a crybaby, but fearless in the sky.

The best flyer among the three.

My mood elevated further.

'A complete legend appears.'

Should I say I discovered the true taste of flight?

We flew for quite a while.

And Pelerian and I realized something important.

"That's Delfram."

At this rate, it seemed we could reach Delfram's dungeon.

'That stone tower?'

"My dungeon! That stone tower!"

In the distance I could see an area without stone pillars.

However, in the middle was one noticeably black stone tower.

Like a black obelisk.

'It looks different from the other dungeons from the start.'

"I named it 'Gravestone'."

Pelerian wanted to go there when he died.

'What kind of dungeon is it exactly?'

I only asked because I still hadn't heard a detailed explanation.

Pelerian gave an unexpected answer.

"...I don't really know."

'What?'

"I don't have memories of what's inside."

Pelerian seems quite displeased about that too.

This old magician's soul beside me now isn't his complete whole.

It's just a part of his soul hidden in a ring after being torn.

Therefore, while he has memories, there are often missing ones.

He must feel his own existence being threatened.

'We'll find out when we get there!'

"Y-yes, that's right!"

We'll know what's inside when we enter, right?

It's no different from before.

'Let's go!'

When I commanded "Saah!", my wyvern army (three babies) started flying toward the black tower.

Though they're still young and small, being able to fly is really convenient.

The distance that would take a long time crawling started closing instantly.

At this rate it seemed we could reach Pelerian's dungeon in no time.

"Don't get too close, stop in front..."

Before we could stop after hearing Pelerian's words, a mighty roar shook heaven and earth.

"Kuooooo!"

Pitch black darkness covered us.

Though it was clearly midday, it suddenly felt like night had fallen.

The identity of the black curtain was the wyvern mom's wings.

She wrapped us in her huge wings and landed.

It was a rougher landing than expected. Enough to roll on the ground with a crash.

Wondering why she suddenly did that, I looked at the wyvern mom.

"Kugagaga!"

She was extremely angry.

Even though wyvern fear doesn't work on me, I could feel that anger tingling.

"Pipiek!"

Even brave Pipi trembled in fear, and the other two siblings had already flopped over and were making a fuss.

Though the wyvern mom would usually end it at this.
