BDAW Chapter 5

I decided to visit the village.

I was alone for days.
Even I have feelings of missing people, and before that, there are many things I want to know about this different world.

And if I’m lucky, I might even find a delicious meal.
Ever since I came here, I’ve only eaten nuts and river fish.

(. . . I want to eat meat)

But it’s impossible!
I can’t kill and dismantle an animal.

“. . . I hope it’s a kind village. Will they let me eat meat?”

I undo the dragonification and check my body.
It should be fine.
There’s nothing strange anywhere.

(Good. Let’s go!)

I slowly approach the village.
It was a lonely village.

I know it because I checked it from the sky beforehand.
There are about 30 houses in this village.
About 100 people lived mainly by farming.
It seems that some villagers do small-scale livestock farming with small animals like rabbits and chickens.

When I stepped into the village, I met eyes with a middle-aged man who was just standing there.
He’s looking at me as if he saw something unbelievable.

“Ah, uh. . . Hello~. . .”

The villager blinked his eyes.

“Hey, are you okay. . .?”
“—Hii!?”

I heard a strained voice.
It was the voice that leaked out of the throat of the one in front of me.

“Hi, Hii!? It’s a witch! It’s a witch!!”

The villager rushed away.

What the hell is a witch?
Left behind, I looked around alone.

“. . . Was there something strange?”

Right now I’m naked and in a trench coat.
It is a complete lewd woman specification.
If you’re talking about whether it’s strange or not, it’s strange with all your might.
Let’s just say it’s off the meter.

However, I didn’t open the front of my coat.
So even if I have a slutty style, I’m not a real slut.

(I don’t understand. . .)

In addition, I don’t understand the words about witches.
It might be better to start over again once.

“Oh, you’re a witch. . .!?”

Just as I was thinking of withdrawing, a voice called out to me.
The man from earlier had returned with the villagers.
A man stepped forward from the crowd.

“Ku, you black witch! What the hell are you doing in the village!”

The 50-year-old man, who was called the village chief by the people around him, is a bit stiff, contrary to his bold words.
The villagers, including him, were trembling even though they were armed with axes and hoes.

“Ah, um. . . What do you mean by witch!?”
“Don’t play dumb!”
“I really don’t know! What are you talking about!?”
“It’s pale! That black hair and black eyes is irrefutable evidence! Other than the witch of the demon kingdom, where is there a woman with such an eerie form!”

I’m astonished.
Black hair and dark eyes are creepy?
Then all Japanese people are creepy, right!?

No wait?
When the place changes, the culture also changes.
Moreover, this place is a different world.
Is this hair and eyes supposed to be creepy here?

(Oh. . .!? Oops. . .!)

When I was thinking about it, I was completely surrounded by the villagers.
Everyone is holding up their weapons with bloodshot eyes.
If I force myself to break through, I may be hurt by the blade.

(What should I do! Run away to the sky?)

Such a thought occurred to me for a moment.
But I quickly dismiss it.
It would be a bad move to show the dragon wings while being accused of being a witch.
The misunderstanding may deepen.

“Okay. . . it doesn’t look like you’re going to resist. . .”

The village chief breathed a sigh of relief.

“Someone, tie up this witch!”

Thus I was arrested by the villagers.

I feel like even if she flew away and they believed even more that she was a witch, it would be better than getting caught by them. If you are in a world where people believe in witches and that they are evil, then there is a good chance that you will be killed if you are captured for being suspected as one.

I hope you enjoyed this chapter and thank you for reading!
