"H-h-hello, I'm, I'm, uh, Thorn Frosthorn. T-the great Sage, I mean, Guardian of Storm Mount! N-n-nice to m-meet you-!"

That was the third time I used that sentence? I'm sorry about that.

Then there was silence. A deafening one. The humans and Beastmen that got blown away by my hasty descent from the mountain started to gather around us. But I didn't care about them. I was anxiously waiting for her response, I'm not even sure what face I'm making.

After a long wait, the creature opened its mouth, and then...

"KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!"

She started shrieking as if she had seen something terrifying. Maybe I was making a very scary face. What can I do? I was so nervous. It is my first time in a very, very long while, seeing another dragon.

Wait, I didn't mention that she was a dragon last episode? Well, sorry about that too, I guess.

...AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!"

Yup, she's still at it. And every human and Beastman that approached us earlier started dropping one by one, with blood in they're ears.

"Um, hey. Right, I'm sorry if I scared you. You see, it was my first time--"

"MONSTER!! SOMEONE SAVE ME!!" the female dragon blurted out.

Usually, I would be very satisfied whenever someone screams like that. I mean, it was kind of the point why I was standing guard of the Storm Mount's peak. To scare away anyone who tries to reach it. But now?

"Wow, it sucks to be called a monster by a fellow dragon. I have feelings too, you know?"

"WAIT, WHAT?!" the female dragon blurted out again.

That outburst almost blew the whole human settlement away.

She started looking around her. She checked her arm, and...

"KYAAAAAAAAAA!!!"

...panicked when she sees her very slender, and glossy scaled arms. So beautiful.

She checked her face. She tried to feel it, traced every aspect of her beautiful face. So heavenly!

"KYAAAAAAAAAA!!!"

And of course she panicked again.

"Calm down, milady (milady?). You're okay."

I tried to calm her down, because her constant screaming was starting to hurt my ear too. I couldn't even imagine how much worse it was for everyone else.

"YOU BASTARD! WHY THE HELL DID YOU TURN ME INTO THIS?! INTO A MONSTER!!"

"Dragon..."

"INTO A DRAGON!! Thanks."

"You're welcome."

"Whyyyyy!?" she finally calmed down a little and dropped to the ground, crying her eyes out.

This lady is crazy. I might need to reevaluate my assessment of her. But she's a dragon. A female dragon. A beautiful female dragon! I might not get another chance like this!

"O Great Guardian of Storm Mount. Thank you for gracing us with your presence, and for saving us from this rampaging dragon."

A human that looked like some kind of a religious leader approached me, with what looked like his followers and a few knights.

Wait. I saved them from this dragon?

"Is it not you humans who summoned this dragon?"

"No. Only a few select human can perform such a high level spell. And summoning the mighty species of dragons was unheard of."

"Are there no elves or dryads within your settlement that could've conducted this spell?"

"No. There are none. Great Guardian, are you not aware of what's happening outside the forest? Are you not aware of the ongoing war against the Demon King?"

"War? And that scoundrel got revived again?"

What's happening? When did all this happen? I've been awake for the past 6 months now but I never sense anything outside the forest.

"Um, hello? Can we focus on my problem now?" the female dragon interrupted my train of thought with teary eyes.

"Ah, yes."

"You seem someone important. And you look powerful, too. Can you help me?"

Wow. It seems like she got a positive impression of me. This is good. I can do this! I can finally get la--!

"Can you help me turn back to being human?"

...

"Wait, what?"
