The Wish of The Dragon

Chapter 29

Issei felt something is weighing down on him, then he felt something soft on his lips and some air went in through his mouth.

He got taken by surprise and cough a bit of air because of that.

Issei - *Cough* *Cough* Wha-

??? - Thank goodness, you're breathing again.

She never really check if he's breathing or not because Issei breathing is pretty soft. And she just lost it when she saw his handsome face, so she forgot to check in the first place and assume he was drowning just now.

His words got cut short by the girl sudden voice and he looks up.

He saw a beautiful girl with blonde hair and dark green eyes looking down at him.

And that very girl is sitting on top of his stomach...

He felt confused with his current situation because the last thing he remembers he was floating on the ocean while still sleeping.

Then he heard the girl talk once more.

??? - Can you tell me your name? Oh, and my name is Riche.

Issei - ...I'm Issei Hyoudou. And you can call me Issei or Ise if you want... Now can you tell me how come we're in this situation again? And where am I?

He answers her question while asking back.

Riche - Oh? Are you a royalty? Hmm but I never heard of Hyoudou household before...

She was surprised that Issei has a surname because in this world just like in Konosuba world usually commoners doesn't have a surname and only royalty does.

But then she remembered his question

Riche - Ah! I'm sorry for getting lost in my thoughts. Then I will just call you Ise, you don't mind if I call you that don't you? And to answer your question. We are at the shore, near Abel town. As for our position as you can see, I saw you were drowning so I saved you.And I was just happened to pass by when I saw you're floating near the beach. So are you a noble from somewhere? And how come you drowned in the first place anyway?

Issei - No. I'm not a noble as far as I remember. And I'm from <Fresh Fish Island> on a boat, but my boat sunk so that's how I "Drown".

Issei knows that even if he told her he swam all the way from <Fresh Fish Island> she won't believe him and will be more suspicious towards him, and to also tell her that he wasn't drowning but was just sleeping would be even weirder.

Riche - Hmmm. I see... Well, thankfully I found you then.

Issei - Ah. Thank you for saving me.

Issei give her a small smile while thanking her because she does save him out of concern so even though he doesn't need help in the first place, he still needs to say thank you no?

Riche who saw his smile blushed deeply because she got smitten by it. He's the most handsome guy she ever saw and that enchanting wine-red eye seems to make her lost in reverie.

She even thought he's an angel for a second but because of the lack of wings she know he's not an angel which known as Holy Knight of Mother Eve.

But she snaps out of it quickly. After all, she's a princess so its only natural to get her bearings quickly in front of somebody else.

Riche Eden is a princess of the nation of Eden, second daughter of Louin Eden and one of his two wives, and previously third in line for the throne of Eden. Devoted to her homeland, Riche has chosen to defend it by running an independent investigation of the Outlaw conspiracy known as the Snake Crest.
