Chapter 39 – Reunion
Chapter 39: Reunion Armored Dragon Calendar Year 417 – Rudeus, Age 10 --- The dog's tongue was wet and insistent against my face. I groaned and tried to push it away. My arms felt like they were made of wet sand. My entire body ached. My mana reserves were gone. Even breathing seemed to require more energy than I possessed. "He's awake!"

Every chapter is a scene. If readers don't feel like they're watching something, I've failed." — Tatsuki Fujimoto, author interview (translated) "Fujimoto doesn't just break shonen rules. He makes you forget there were rules. Then when you remember, it's too late—you already love the chaos." — Manga…-

Chapter 38 – The Slaver Crisis
Chapter 38: The Slaver Crisis Armored Dragon Calendar Year 417 – Claude, Age 12 --- The Great Forest was quieter than I expected. Two weeks since leaving the elven village.

Chapter 37 – Elven Village
Chapter 37: Elven Village Armored Dragon Calendar Year 417 – Claude, Age 12 --- I thought I was being careful. The forest around the elven village was ancient. Trees stretched hundreds of feet into the sky, their canopy so thick that sunlight filtered through in scattered beams. Moss covered every surface. The air smelled of rain and growing things.
