Dragon Overlord Legend

High school DxD x Overlord

Disclaimer: I owned nothing.

Chapter 5

Finished the last Halfling, Rias-chan had come and had a word with me:

"I got a piece of information about this land. This land is called "Mellow Hills", the village belonged to Lord Spree, the owner of Castle Spree, I will tell you more after we get back. Asia-chan has been escorted back to the tower. Now I and Koneko-chan with the [Brown Draglings] will go find the food.

Ise-kun, crashes the party."

Jumping over the hill and sliding down, I quickly disable the rock throwers on high ground.

Huh? The music?

My body… it's urging me to dance!

The music!

Dragon is affected by music!

Damn! Where is it!? Where is the source of music!?

That guy!

I immediately make a [Flame Drake's Bullet] and fire at the table under his feet.

"Hot! The table! It's burning! Somebody save me!"

Luckily, that guy's panic and jumps down, leaving his violin on the ground.

Must snatch that violin, or else someone will play it and I would lose control again.

I launch myself from the high ground and grab the violin, throwing it over the hill.

"Rias-chan! There's a magical violin! I have thrown it to your last position, please retrieve it before somebody took it!"

"On my way Ise-kun."

Good, Rias-chan will definitely make it. Now I need to focus on Melvin Underbelly.

Because of my ruckus, the Halflings have been alerted and coming from all directions. Melvin was escaped. But it's just a matter of time.

Regain my posture, I fight the Halflings with fists and kicks, sometimes blast [Drake's Bullet] to the rock throwers.

The last Halfling fall down, making me looks like a mass murder.

Well, it's your choice, had you not overgrow with your victory, things wouldn't be this bad.

"Sir! Thank you for saving us!"

"The Halflings have been this bad since Melvin returned, please make him pay for all of his terror!"

The people is cheering for me to kill the former Halfling hero, you know, you are no different from them, but that not my rights to judge them.

Huh?

"Hey, you, no, the girl over there. Yes, by any chance, are you Matilda Barbaron?"

She had Alina-san trait on her, I need to confirm this.

"Yes, how did you know my name, Lord… ?"

"I am Lord Issei Hyoudou Gremory, your sister, Alina Barbaron, has asked me to save you, now please get back to your home, we will discuss it later."

"It's my honor, Lord Gremory. And thank you for saving me. Melvin has gone to his kitchen, it's on the east from here, and you need to turn the wheel to open it."

"Thank you, now go."

The brown hair girl runs back to her house, the rest of the people do the same.

The wheel is… lost 2 of its sticks.

Well, why bother to turn wheel to open door anyways.

[Flame Cannon]!

Isn't that quicker? Oh, and it knock back the Chef Halfings, too.

Inside Melvin kitchen.

The smell, no good, too many oils and fats, that's explains how a Halfling could be as big as a troll.

My dragon power improves all of my senses, and the smell, it's not bad, but it's bugging me. Gotta make it fast.

I can see tons of food in here, all for Melvin?

Gluttony.

Somehow I think I should bring all of this food back, but the girls wouldn't accept this much fat, so giving it to the [Draglings] is a better choice.

Well, at least the raw material, spice, recipe is still flesh.

Alright, let's get to work.

Down there, I see some Chef Halflings walking back and forth, checking the grilled meat. The entire floor is a huge furnace bar.

Some creatures like [Brown Dragling] are under the ground, trapped in a small room.

[Red Dragling].

That's why the Halflings can create such amount of heat. They have captured the [Red Draglings] and forced them to light their kitchen.

I fire [Flame Cannon] artillery style, direct at the Chef Halflings, close to the small room the [Red Draglings] trapped.

The Chef Halflings die immediately, the furnace bar has a hole on it, add a precision strike with [Drake's Bullet]. I free the [Red Draglings] from the prison.

Take their arm and lift them on one by one, 5 [Red Draglings] bow to me as their master.

I order the [Red Draglings] to loot the chests, bring the food back to the tower and let the girls soft it out.

In the huge room with plenty dishes set, some leftover, kitchen utensils, I can see Melvin is eating his food.

Hum, consume till the end.

"Melvin Underbelly! I am Lord Issei Hyoudou! Surrender now, pull back your men, release all the other slaves and return things you take from them. I will spare your life!"

Negotiate first, Rias-chan taught me that. If not the last choice, negotiate with your enemy can stop all unnecessary blood and soul.

"Melvin is not small now! Melvin eats and fights!"

With a gold fork in hand, Melvin walks his big belly to me.

A horrible scene!

Tons of fat swaying, it's swaying! The tiny legs carry these tons of fat step by step, with a smell combine of … er… ham, pumpkins, garlic, oils, not normal oils but used many times oils!

Damn! I want to vomit!

Idle time's over!

I launch myself at Melvin, punch his distorted face, before his back falls on the floor, I elbow his back head and sweep his legs, a powerful kick send to the other side of the room.

And now, I will use…

He's rolling back! Curling his body, Melvin rolls to me with high speed!

I dodge at the last second. The wall Melvin crashes into crumble a little.

Now it's my chance!

[Double Flame Cannon]!

Melvin goes boom!

…

Damn, that was close, had I not hide behind a table, I don't think I can wash myself out of that terrible smell.

Let's see if Rias-chan right about secret base.

Follow the next door, I found myself in a room full of food and recipe, the wall and the ground at the lower level is quite similar to lava.

The [Red Draglings] continue to bring supply back to the tower.

I can see the [Red Dragling Hive], which is not far from here.

"Rias-chan, how have you been?"

"It's over, Ise-kun. We have rescued the slaves in the kitchen of the Halfling home, Archie-san got the food back and gave us some farmland, I will tell you more details tonight, and yours?"

"Melvin Underbelly met his end. I located another [Dragling Hive], gonna take it back now."

"That's great, Ise-kun, we will have a small party tonight to celebrate."

"Then see you soon, Rias-chan."

20 [Dragling] on the field, I wonder how long before Rias-chan send them back so I can summon more here.

Anyway, let's see where Melvin hid his treasure.

I wander around, fight the last Halflings remain, finally, at some "hard to find" corner, I discover a hidden door.

What kind of treasure Melvin would hide, beside from his food?

Hm, not much, typical gold coins, gold bars, jewels you may see on TV, manga, anime, but they aren't covered all the room. Melvin used them to trade food, I guess.

There is some rare recipe, spice, gold cooking tools, a set of gold spoons, bowls, some with excellent decoration.

A cabin full of wine bottles, high class cheese, butter, chocolates glass boxes, leather cookbooks.

I think I saw something flashy.

A crystal on the highest shelf of the cabin.

It's so… beautiful, and I'm feeling weird? It's dragging me closer to it.

I will take it back and let Rossweisse-san or Ophis has a look.

Too late I guess, 'cause the moment my right hand touch it.

Burn.

What is this feeling!?

Ugh!

My entire body is hot, so hot, like drown into the flame!

Water! I must find water, but around here I can't find any water.

There should be water outside this place.

And I ran, didn't realize that the crystal slowly absorbs into my right hand.

Hah, hah, hah.

Hurt.

So much pain.

Like being ripped apart.

My body muscle is screaming.

The sun shines on my body.

GRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEGGGGG!
