Reincarnated as a Dragon's Egg

359 – Battle with Eve (side Treant)

…My master commands the unreasonable. As master-dono takes his eyes off me, I separate my two crossed branches and scratch my bark.

So that I’m not left behind by master-dono’s favourite, Aro-dono, and the impertinent newcomer spider, I responded to master-dono with a show of confidence, but in my eyes, it’s clear that that the one-eyed monster is too much for us to handle. Aro-dono’s fluster is entirely understandable. In the first place, forcing that speedy one-eyed to stay in one place is beyond our capabilities. What should we do? I told master-dono that I would try my best, so, for now, I’ll try shooting gravity waves when the timing looks right.

Neither Aro-dono nor the masked spider are very fast. As I am a tree, catching up to it is even more unthinkable for me.

I twist my trunk, thinking I’ll chase after it with my roots even if it’s just for show, but then Aro-dono rests a hand on me.

“Probably… It’ll come here. Just a bit longer.”

Hmm, what do you mean? I think strongly towards her, and she silently looks at master-dono.

Master-dono steps back and receives an attack from a human-shaped with his shoulder. Oh? Wouldn’t master-dono normally have been able to avoid that?

“Dragon-god-sama received it on purpose.”
