The Super Beasts left quietly.

Their instincts must have told them that they could not win against Veldora.

Veldora and the others did not even bother to watch them leave. They quickly cleaned up after the barbecue and renewed their journey.

During the silent march, Zaza made a decision and approached Veldora.

“Ah, um…Veldora, sir, uh, lord? I would like to ask you something…”

Zaza seemed very anxious about talking to him now.

“What is it Zaza? What happened to your usual brazen attitude?”

“Uh, no, it’s… Ahahahaha…”

He tried to hide his awkwardness with a laugh.

It could not be helped.

When he thought back on the way he had treated Veldora, he had to realize that he had been incredibly rude.

Veldora just grinned mischievously and teased Zaza.

This was very unbecoming, but that could not be helped, since it was Veldora.

After all, Veldora was an evil dragon by nature.

And so he continued to toy with Zaza for a while until he got bored.

“Hmm. No, it is better when you talk normally. Being so formal is no fun at all.”

“What!? I wasn’t talking like that for your amusement—ah!”

“Kahahaha! Yes, yes, that’s much better!”

“I am very sorry for everything I did! I didn’t realize how great you really were, Lord Veldora…”

“Oh, Zaza. I find it creepy when you call me that. You can just say ‘mister.’ However! Do not forget to be respectful, alright?”

“Creepy…what do you think…”

“Oh, don’t worry about it. It’s nothing Zaza.”

“Alright, alright! I’m starting to think maybe it was a misunderstanding that I thought you looked so amazing a while ago…”

“Kaaaahahahaha! What a funny little joke, Zaza!”

And like that, they returned to their usual banter.

Veldora enjoyed it this way, and so while he continued to act grand, he allowed Zaza to speak casually.

Veldora preferred to be friends with people instead of having them fear him.

“So, Vel-, Mister Veldora. Who are you?”

Zaza asked his question.

Everyone else was also interested in this question, and the surrounding adults perked up their ears.

“Hmm. It is no secret, really. But would you believe me?”

“Yes, yes. Of course, I would believe! After all, we’ve already seen such a ridiculous sight as you punching a Super Beast!”

The adults nodded silently to this.

“Master. Why don’t you tell them the truth? I bet they won’t believe you anyway.”

“I agree. They will not believe you.”

Ramiris and Beretta whispered. Veldora felt the same.

But he did not care if they believed him or not.
