U-Uh...
Um...
Why are you sitting beside me?
To better know someone, a very effective strategy is to sit beside them.
It's common sense for dating.
You learned something new again.
And so, you won't ever sit across a girl while on a date.
W-Wait, you're too close!
Please give me some space!
I want you.
With the Zepharos Empire in the north,
Zepharos Kingdom
and the Chevron Kingdom in the south,
Chevron Empire
and interposed between these two major powers lies the Lautreamont Knightdom.
Lautreamont Knightdom
Known as the country of dragon-breeding, it lives up to its name
by boasting the highest population of dragons living in the Ark Strada continent.
Hence in this country, despite its small population of five million people,
exists a special academy.
The Ansullivan Dragon Riding Academy.
It is an academy for teaching and guiding
the boys and girls, known as the Breeders, who, by forming a contract with dragons, keep them.

As long as I can protect only you until the end
The reason I wanted you to come to the Student Council Room is none other than this.
Ash Blake.
Y-Yes?!
Won't you join the Student Council?
City Streets Disturbance
Is it delicious, Lancelot?
Lancelot, thanks to you growing into a Maestro, I was able to become a Dragonar.
Next is to become an Ark-Dragonar.
I made a promise with him.
That I'd become a magnificient knight.
Even then...
Ash Blake. That guy is absurd.
He can ride others' Pals?
There is a limit to nonsense!
Just what kind of technique does he use—
We've got trouble!
A dragon's going berserk!
Your highness!
This young Strada suddenly...
Y-You want me to join the Student Council?
Exactly.
B-But...
Also, about the suspicious people you encountered in the forest...
For argument's sake, if they were spies of the Empire,
the possibility of them targeting this academy is not zero.
Ever since the war 52 years ago, the Zepharos Empire has apparently been mistaking our academy as a military one.
Even though they're wrong...
Exactly.
Obviously, as long as this Rebecca Randall and Cú Chulainn are here,
we have no intention of letting them do as they please.
Therefore I want you to lend your strength.
As a member of the Student Council.
B-But, I...
Would you mind thinking about it?
Th-This is...
Level 2 alert status!
Hey, calm down!
Quieten—
No way! Why is the princess doing something so reckless?!
Most likely it's due to a competitive spirit against you.
Her Highness is a perfectionist, and hates losing to the extreme,
and was most likely unable to settle down when her classmate could ride any kind of dragon.
Well, there is no need to worry.
Rebecca-san!
Heed my summons, Cú Chulainn!
Rebecca Randall hereby commands thee...
Present thy Ark to me!
Is that an Ark?!
Delicious!
That situation was...
It all ended fine, thanks to Rebecca-san, but...
Princess actually opposes me?
Ow! O-O-Ow!
Ow-Ow-Ouch!
You've got some guts to be ignoring what I'm saying.
S-Sorry! Just thinking about something.
I'm asking why people are gathered over there.
Ah... Those are tourists who have come to see the St. Durham statue.
St. Durham?
Durham Lautreamont. He was the first Paladin.
He lived about five hundred years ago.
That armor... it's an Ark, right?
You can tell?
The blueprints for that Ark are preserved in the Dragweiss.
The blueprints our ancestors left behind are ultimately nothing more than reference materials, though.
Then, will you make an original Ark for me someday?
But you gotta become a Maestro for that first!
You gotta be kidding me!
Why must I make an Ark for the sake of my pet dog?!
It simply contradicts the laws of nature!
W-What is it, all of a sudden?
Ah, speaking which, I learnt this in class before.
To dragons, to present their master with an Ark means to give their everything to—
That can't be true!
He's the guy from back then!
How should I report this to Milgauss-sama...
My, my.
Looks like we have met at a very pleasant place.
This restaurant, Dragontooth, has unrivaled taste and serving sizes.
The fact that Student Council members get 50% off is not something to be overlooked either.
Now, don't hold back and dig in.
Um, why are you two together?
It's the date I promised as a reward to winning the Riding Festival.
Her Highness also has to fulfil her duty as the winner.
She seems to be troubled by many things recently,
so I was thinking of talking everything out with her.
But she's been acting like this since forever...
Ow! Ow! Ouch!
Anya.
Anya!
What's wrong?
N-No, nothing!
How are things at the city?
E-Everyone is taking it easy.
As if they've forgotten about war.
Indeed.
In this city, no one thinks about using dragons as weapons.
Ansullivan is a very kind city.
But there is no point in such kindness.
The darkness and flames rivaling even the deep abyss of death.
Thy blood and flesh, from ashes to ashes and dust to dust.
I summon thee, the heaven-sent child of Magic Techniques!
What's wrong?
That's not a good sign.
W-What's that?
Seikoku no Dragonar
Hurry and run!
W-What's that?
A dragon?
The flesh is decaying.
Eco!
Step back, you lowlife!
Do you have any idea who I am?!
There are many wonderful shops around in this city!
What's she doing?
If you get it, then you better leave!
Eco!
Ouch!
Where are you touching?! You...
Stop this instant!
Damn! What should we do?
Rebecca-san!
Materialize! The magic spear that strikes without fail.
So called..
Gáe Bolg!
Go for it!
She did it!
It's regenerating?
What a beast.
Ash!
Take Her Highness and get out of there!
Princess!
Princess! Get a grip on yourself!
What's wrong with this fellow?!
Eco...
She still hasn't given up.
Princess!
Stop this nonsense! You call yourself royalty.
Isn't it precisely during times like these that you should display your royal caliber?!
My apologies in advance.
Sorry!
Ash...
I need your help, Princess.
Summon Lancelot immediately, and get me over there.
Get you... over where?
Over there!
I can tame dragons, no matter which.
If it's me, I might be able to tame that fellow.
Impossible! Are you nuts?
That's enough, your highness. Hurry up and call for Lancelot!
Eco!
Get on!
We might still make it.
H-Hey!
Stop touching me in weird places!
Who do you think I am?!
Doing something like that to a superior dragon race...
H-Hey!
I said stop...
Hello there, Eco.
This is the Deceased Dragon Workshop.
And my name is Navi.
Navi?
I'm a personality that has been born to guide the yet-to-mature you.
I guess I could put it that way.
This form of yours...
More importantly,
if this persists, he could well be on his way to hell.
Are you fine with that?
Ash!
He definitely has the inherent gift to be able to tame any dragon.
But that's insufficient.
The him as of now won't be able to defeat a Necromancia.
Necromancia?
A dragon that died, but was resurrected by humans.
The thing he lacks is an Ark, right?
Correct.
This Dragon Workshop is a shared space created by craftworker Maestros, otherwise known as holy dragons.
The Ark is one of these creations of the Maestros.
But the Ark is a tailor-made knight's armor.
If made just by mere copying, he could lose his life if it doesn't fit.
In that case, what should I do?
It's simple.
You just have to find portions that fit his body from within these many blueprints,
and put them together.
Also, the size data for his body is here.
Since when did you...
Before you were born,
I entered his dreams and did some things.
Don't you dare do anything bad to my dog!
So what if I did?
Are you finding it hard to keep calm amidst all the blueprints?
Are you giving up right at the beginning, thinking you can't pick out all of the parts?
I just dislike that smirk of yours!
Of course.
I will do it!
Are you all right?
Yeah, sorry.
Lancelot is also reaching his limit.
Your body can't take it anymore.
I know that.
But I can tell that Eco is still alive, thanks to the Astral Flow through my Star Mark.
As long as this radiance doesn't dim,
I will never give up!
So please don't give up on me, Eco!
I'll come save you.
So don't even think about giving up.
Who does he think he is?
He's only a dog.
Magic is accumulating.
This must be the breeder and Pal's...
No.
Ash and Eco's bond.
I can see it!
Almete, Gorjal, Peto, Espaldar, Brafoneras, Faldaje,
Bufetas, Hombreras, Brazales, Codales, Grebas, Escarpes,
Espolón!
Ash!
Even though it's such a waste giving this to a dog,
please accept it.
This is...
Isn't that an Ark?
It's exquisite...
I-It's not like I made it for your sake or anything!
This is just a mere makeshift.
It's not original.
It's not a dedication to you.
Thank you, Eco.
With this, I won't lose.
Princess!
Roger that!
Lancelot is a fine dragon.
What?
You have the best Pal possible.
Don't think of doing something as foolish as riding on another dragon.
W-What are you saying at a time like this?!
Ash...
I care not if you are god, or the devil.
As long as you are a dragon, I shall tame you.
Milgauss-sama.
Looks like an unexpected ambush.
The experiment has ended in failure.
But it hasn't been fruitless.
That boy and girl...
Girl?
We are withdrawing.
Necromancia, is that you?
I see, you also had a master.
Are you... really fine with that?
I got it.
Yes, leave it to me.
Materialize! The sword graced by light which cleanses the dark.
Bestow upon me your power!
Its name: Aix-les-Bains!
Eco!
Ash!
Once again, congrats on the birth of your Pal.
Thanks, Raymond.
Next, through this incident,
I strongly believe the student council's strength is still far from adequate.
Ash, Silvie.
I once again invite you to join the student council.
If Lancelot and I are able to assist in any way, I shall join.
I shall not allow another raid like this to happen again.
Ash?
I...
All right. I will join, too.
For simplicity, let's have the acceptance ceremony here.
Hey you... A lowly dog like you getting lovey-dovey with human females...
What's the meaning of this?!
Are you tired of living?!
Prez, why wasn't there such a ceremony when I joined—
Well then, a toast to the new student council members.
It hurts...
Hmph!
Cheers!
I-I can't reach...

Yo, Ash Blake!
I heard you are a super-masochist.
Where did you hear that from?!
By the way, I'm a super-sadist who you can get really attached to.
And I'm a super-masochist, on top of that.
Somehow it felt like an awesome revelation!
