《Chronicles of The Dragon Empire: Rise of the Dragon King (Rewritten)》Chapter 5: I'll Call Your Dad!
Advertisement
(Fafnir’s POV)
I deflected the kunais with my knife. She didn’t aim on my vital points, so I can suppose that she wants to capture me or interrogate after incapacitating me. As if I would let it happen! Alright, time to level this thing up.
I advance, attacking the kunoichi. Attacking with a straight punch with my left hand, I try to grab her. I move much faster than a human is capable of, but she jumps back, avoiding it. Hoh~, she’s not half-bad.
Alright, let’s- don’t run away!
(Akame’s POV)
Fafnir-san tries to grab me, but I was barely able to avoid. What’s with that speed?! Ok, change of plans, run away while I can! I simply turn back and begin to run with all my strength. Then, I hear a loud sound of something hitting the ground and wood cracking. Ah, I’m screwed, aren’t I?
(Fafnir’s POV)
She tried to run away, so I stomped the ground with my right leg, cracking the wood floor of my house. Dammit, I’ll have to repair it later. I wonder if it will be pricy? I also never fixed a floor before, I wonder if it’s hard to do it?
Using the power generated by my stomp, I propel myself forward in high speed. The kunoichi turns around, taking a kunai from somewhere. Moving my hand, I slash at her kunai, cutting it in half. Distracted this, she stares at her half kunai. Taking this opportunity, I throw my left hand again, this time grabbing her neck.
Immediately, she stops moving, giving up. Good. Now, I will take her to my interrogation room. Don’t ask me why I have one in this house, just know that I have.
(Akame’s POV)
He cut it in half… with a kitchen knife, he cut my metal kunai with a kitchen knife… in half… ah, whatever, I lost, ok? I don’t want to fight anymore~. My whole life training was meaningless desu~~

He grabbed my neck. I wasn’t suffocating, but his hand gave the feeling of steel holding my neck. Ah, I’m dead. Without releasing my neck, he drags me to a room in the underground. What ca I wait from him, I wonder.
My big brother used to tease me that if you were captured you could expect things worse than death. I never believed him, since I never tough that I would be caught by an enemy.
Inside the room, he put me seated on a steel chair and handcuffed my hands and feet, tying the handcuffs on my hands on a chain that’s connected to the steel table. Fafnir-san than takes off his apron, which he was wearing during the whole thing, and sat in front of me in a steel chair, on the other side of the table.
(Fafnir): “Alright, I don’t know who sent you, but I will make you talk. But first, I will warn you, I don’t want to waste my time in torture, so I will kindly ask you to speak, ok?”
He says. Extending his hand, he takes off my mask. Looking at me for a moment, he murmured.
(Fafnir): “Seiryuu Akame?!”
(Akame): “… Tehe~pero?”
(Fafnir): “Don’t try to act cute on me! Nom what the hell are you doing invading my house?!”
(Akame): “I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I’m sorry degozaru!”
(Fafnir): “Gozaru?”
Dammit, my bad habit came out again. I worked so hard to try to get rid of it! In the end, when I’m nervous it comes out…
(Fafnir): “Whatever, why did you invade my house?”
(Akame): “I-i-it’s because…”
I couldn’t come up with an excuse. Fafnir-san stares at me, making me sweat cold. After a short silence, he says:
(Fafnir): “So, will you speak or…”
(Akame): “S-sorry. I came here to install some cameras to spy on you, degozaru.”

(Fafnir): “……… pervert.”
(Akame): “GAH! It isn’t what you are thinking degozaru! I just wanted to get information on you degozaru!”
(Fafnir): “Stalker.”
(Akame): “Guh! A-anyway, I didn’t mean any harm, I just wanted to learn more about you! It’s true degozaru!”
(Fafnir): “… Alright, at least I can tell that you aren’t a threat. But I still can’t trust you.”
(Akame): “I’m sorry.”
(Fafnir): “Now the question is what I will do with you…”
(Akame): “A-ano(escuse me)”
(Fafnir): “What?”
He asked me as I called him. Alright, I didn’t want to involve him on this, but I will have to. Sorry Fafnir-san.
(Akame): “If you want, I can introduce you my father, he will be a great connection if Fafnir-san wants.”
(Fafnir): “Your father?”
(Akame): “Yes, from my clan. My father is the leader so…”
(Fafnir): “Wait, your clan? The Seiryuu clan?”
(Akame): “Eh? Ah, yes, that one!”
(Fafnir): “You’re Hamada’s daughter?!”
(Akame): “You know my dad?!”
(Fafnir): “Yeah, I do. Argh, I will call him here.”
(Fafnir’s POV)
I didn’t know that Seiryuu-san was Hamada’s daughter. I met him around 30 years ago, when I came to Japan to deal with something. I saved his life during a little something that happened, and since than we had a good friendship. Although I hadn’t visited him yet, since he doesn’t know I am in Japan, I didn’t meet his daughter yet.
I know his oldest one, I met him once when he was five years old. Actually, I only know that he had a daughter when I met him on America ten years ago, when he bragged to me about his cute wife. I was rather annoying.
I take my phone and type Hamada’s number and wait it for connect while looking at her, so that she can’t do anything funny while I look away. The phone connects. I put in on loud speaker.
(Hamada): “If isn’t my old friend! What’s the news? For you to call me, what happened? A ninja invaded your house?”
(Fafnir): “Yeah. And the ninja that invaded my house is your daughter.”
(Hamada): “… Ha… Ha Ha! Fafnir-dono, you’re such a tease! Please, don’t make a joke like that! My daughter couldn’t possibly-“
(Fafnir): “She did. What the hell have you been teaching to your kids, Hamada?”
(Hamada): “…….. Are you serious?”
(Fafnir): “Yeah. She even said degozaru at the end of her phrase. Go on, Seiryuu-san, say something.”
(Akame): “P-papa, he’s saying the truth. I……. invaded his house.”
(Hamada): “… Akame, we have to talk. Fafnir-dono, do you mind if I go to your house right now?”
(Fafnir): “No, I don’t.”
