Reincarnated as a Dragon's Egg

264 – Attack

After a sidelong glance at Baron, who’s fidgeting in worry, Hibi turns to face me. Having chanted an incantation under her breath, she connects to me with [Telepathy].

『…The truth is, our village is under attack. We have come to borrow your strength. 』

Y-your village?

『The women and children have taken shelter in the basement of the meeting hall, but our opponents are numerous, so at this rate…』

I-I got it. In any case, it’s better if we hurry, right? Is it okay if we go now and I hear the explanation later?

『That would be a great help. Thank you very much, dragon-god-sama』

Hibi silently bows her head. Then, like before, I put Hibi and Baron on my back and head towards the village.

On the way, I spot another abyss. I don’t have time to deal with it, so I keep on running like I never saw it.
