I'm really just human

"Wow!"

"hold head high--!"

A strong light erupted from the apartment balcony, and the red dragon roared and crashed down. The huge body rebounded, and the surrounding glass exploded. Shinji Kido in the house was blown away by the shock wave just as he shouted, and he screamed and hit the closet.

"boom!"

Xia Chuan also took a step back from the impact, feeling mentally exhausted.

A bit fierce.

It is indeed a Dragon Riding Contract Beast.

After looking at the red dragon who was dizzy and shaking his head in mid-air, Xia Chuan picked up the black initial set and took out the first two cards.

One is a seal card, which can seal a mirror monster.

The holder can also use this card to avoid being attacked by mirror monsters. It is equivalent to the existence of a protection card, which can make mirror monsters fearful. However, if it cannot be taken out in time, torn or lost, it will also be devoured by mirror monsters.

The original owner of the box was probably attacked and disappeared by the red dragon because of this.

The other card is a contract card. You can sign a contract with the mirror monster to become a special advent card. The transformed knight can borrow the power of the mirror monster in the future, but you must also feed the monster at the same time, otherwise the mirror monster will eat it if it is hungry for too long. Contractor.

The remaining cards in the card box are all reading cards for using weapons and skills. They sign a contract with the mirror monster and can be truly effective after being strengthened.

"Uh-huh!"

Xia Chuan put back the seal card and faced the swooping red dragon again with the contract card in hand.

He doesn't have to worry about the mirror monster's backlash.

"Wow——!"

The bright light from the balcony reappeared, but this time there was no shock wave. There was only a long dragon roar and the huge body of the red dragon rushed into the contract card.

"hold head high!"

"senior?"

Kido Shinji stared at Natsukawa holding up the card, having to cover his eyes with his arms under the strong light.

"Hoo ho!"

After a while, the balcony returned to calm. Shinji Kido, who had regained his composure, rushed to Natsukawa's side. He opened his eyes and looked dreamily at the contract card that had turned into a Dragon Knight advent card.

Unparalleled Dragon Dragon Crimson One.

"What happened just now, Kaminaga-senpai? Did the dragon rush into the card?"

Shinji Kido gasped and asked, his expression still unbelievable.

I just feel like my worldview has been subverted all of a sudden.

"What is that dragon..."

"Don't tell anyone about this."

Xia Chuan didn't explain much, he just put the Dragon Rider Arrival card back into the card sleeve.

The black box has been separated from its initial state, and there is a golden faucet logo on the surface.

Dragon Rider.

He doesn't really care which knight he becomes, as long as he is a mirror knight and can enter the mirror world.

The next step is to find the core mirror in the mirror world.

"Go back first."

"But senior," Shinji Kido was suddenly startled and hesitated as he looked at the scattered glass shards around him, "It shouldn't have anything to do with me this time, right? I don't know if it's okay to tell the administrator that it was a monster."

"..."

Downstairs in the apartment, a young man and woman stood at the corner of the street, looking at Natsukawa and Shinji Kido on the balcony, with shock still on their faces.

"You saw it, Lian, that person..."

"Well, the Dragon Rider does not seem to be easy to deal with," the cold-faced man frowned, "That guy seemed to have planned to make a contract with the dragon from the beginning, and actually stole my prey."

"That's not it."

The short-haired woman opened her mouth.

"He blocked the dragon's attack..."

"What's so strange," the cold-faced man said indifferently, "Anyone can do it as long as they hold the sealing card."

…

ORE newspaper.

President Okubo took the bill and looked at Natsukawa strangely.

"Kannaga, are you too kind to this guy Shinji? You don't need to help him, this guy doesn't get into trouble just once or twice."

"It's okay, just deduct it from my salary."

Xia Chuan's expression did not change.

It's not his money anyway.

"But having said that, Kaminaga," Okubo put down the bill and asked, "Is there any clue about the interview? Many people have disappeared this month, and no connection has been found."

"Kamiyaga?"

Kazumi Takahashi walked into the office holding a pile of documents. When she saw Natsukawa, she suddenly opened her mouth and dropped all the documents in her hands to the ground.

"It's really you!"

"Takahashi?"

Xia Chuan's brows twitched slightly.

Hiroko’s partner actually arrived here too.

While he was pouring water in the tea room, Takahashi Kazumi asked curiously: "Why is Kaminaga-senpai here? Hiroko-senpai should have warned you, right?"

"Accident, where are you?" Of course Xia Chuan would not say that he did it on purpose.

"I, I was also surprised."

Takahashi Kazumi looked away.

In fact, she didn't know the reason, but she came here out of nowhere when she was going to the toilet.

"You'd better be careful here," Xia Chuan reminded, "Don't run around if you die. If you die here, you will really die."

"I know." Takahashi Kazumi's face turned pale.

She has never even had a boyfriend. It would be too tragic if she died here.

"Where are you, Kaminaga-senpai? If you are interviewing outside..."

"I'm fine."

"Kaminaga!" Okubo shouted in the office, "The deadline is coming soon, you have to write your report quickly!"

Xia Chuan secretly had a headache.

Why do you have to work wherever you go?

He has never been a reporter.

Is it better to resign?

…

"Woo!"

the other side.

More and more people accidentally enter the time and space of "Dragon Knight". Except for a few lucky ones who are selected as knights, most of them are just ordinary people like Takahashi Kazumi. Not only do they have to run for life, but they also have to be careful of the elusive mirror monster at all times. , more difficult than this world.

but.

Even the lucky ones who become knights are not happy.

Because the knights of this world themselves are pits.

"Fight!"

Kanzaki Shirou's figure can be seen everywhere in the mirror reflection, paying close attention to all the knights, and guiding each knight in the contract battle like a game guide.

"Hey, let me go back! I don't want to be such a knight!"

"Why do we have to fight?"

"I just want to be an ordinary person, don't I?"

"Don't eat me!"

"I don't want to be a knight anymore!"

"Help!"

As the night passed, many lucky people became eliminated one after another after becoming knights.

Ordinary people simply cannot deal with the mirror monster.

Many candidates who seemed pretty good turned out to be their true colors when they encountered the mirror monster. They were completely strong on the outside but weak on the inside, similar to Mr. Ye who loves dragons.

Kanzaki Shirou didn't care and just continued to screen knights as programmed.

You don't need to think too much, you will know if you are qualified to become a knight by giving it a try.

It's just a waste of time.

"A lot of disappearances suddenly happened yesterday."

The next morning, Shinji Kido followed Natsukawa and continued to go out for interviews and investigations, his face full of worry and fear.

"Are these disappearances related to the monster in the mirror yesterday? But that dragon was subdued by senior..."

"It's not a subjugation, it's a contract."

Xia Chuan stopped in front of a high-end apartment building.

The remnants of the spider's legs can be faintly seen in the reflection of the glass.

It's the spider mirror monster I met in this world.

He seems to have a connection with spiders, and he always encounters this kind of spider-shaped monster.

"Senior Kaminaga?" Shinji Kido then looked around solemnly, "Has that monster in the mirror appeared again?"

Natsukawa observed and looked at the floor where the incident occurred: "If he stayed at the scene after eating, he must be waiting for the next prey to enter the net... You should go back first, Shinji."

"Ah?" The alert Kido Shinji Yuu was stunned, "But senior, can you do it alone? Then there is only one contract card..."

"You can't help here." Xia Chuan interrupted.

"Let me stay, senior!" Shinji Kido said anxiously, "I want to know the truth. Isn't that what being a reporter is for? My consciousness is the same as that of senior. I can't let senior take risks alone..."

Natsukawa glanced at Shinji Kido.

Where did he get his consciousness?

Not to mention that he is not from this world. If he really becomes a reporter, it will only be for money and work.

"It seems like you can't even pay the rent, right?" Xia Chuan asked casually, "What kind of enlightenment do you still have left to think about?"

"Yes, that's right, but..."

"Take care of yourself first. How can you be a hero if you can't even eat enough?"

Natsukawa pulled out the seal card and stuffed it into Shinji Kido's hand.

"Take this, don't lose it, it will protect you."

"ah?"

"Wow!"

Before Shinji Kido could continue to speak, Natsukawa pointed the card case at the glass mirror in front of the apartment building, and the V-buckle of his knight's belt automatically appeared.

"Transformation."
