I Was Adopted By A Dragon In Another World

dragon’s lair.

Was there anything that she could plant?

Luya thought of the seeds that she had looted from the goblins yesterday.
She didn’t know what kind of seeds those were, but they had been stored inside a locked chest as if they were a precious treasure.
She felt like they might be rare.

She hoped they might grow into vegetables.

But to be honest, she didn’t have anything else to plant aside from those seeds.
Perhaps it was time to try her luck.

Consequently, Luya found a relatively fertile plot of land, scattered the seeds on the ground, buried them, and then watered them with the Goblet of Aqua Pura.

…That was probably the way to get started.

When she started farming, the dog kept following and watching her work.
This was the only thing that comforted Luya.
At the very least Lu Dahuang wasn’t running anymore, so perhaps that meant he recognized her as his master?

“Good boy.
If the red dragon brings anything good back today, I’ll cook some dog food for you, Dahuang.”

Luya looked at the Shiba Inu affectionately, and reached out to pet him.
But for some reason, the Shiba Inu immediately turned around and walked away after hearing her.
It even glared at her despicably5, unless she was imagining it?

Fine… this dog was too headstrong.
It was impossible to change, so she might as well get back to work.

Since the soil was so fertile, Luya wanted to dig up some fruit trees and transplant them.
She remembered seeing a few apple trees when she had gone looking for the dog.
If they could be planted here, they would become an endless supply of fruit.

But how could she do it? She fell into a quandary.

She definitely wasn’t able to move an entire tree herself.
Even the red dragon wouldn’t be much help.
It was impossible to dig out the fruit tree along with its roots using just one person’s strength, and even if she could somehow bring it back, she had no strength to push the fruit tree up to plant it.

If only she had someone to help.

As she was thinking about this, an idea suddenly popped up in Luya’s head.

There were some wild goblins on this mountain.

Since the red dragon didn’t usually attack these monsters on the mountain, they were able to survive in the dragon’s area of influence and live in peace.
But goblins were intelligent, even if it was at a relatively low level compared to other monsters.
They also had limited fighting power, and it was practically written in their instinctual genes for them to never attack anything that was much stronger than themselves.

That said, goblins were very suitable for civil construction projects, such as repairing a lord’s manor.
It was reported that the dark city Dünbruck was originally built with 20,000 goblins.

They would obey their orders under the state of fear, but they had almost no loyalty.
As soon as the goblins’ master lost the power to control them, they would immediately flee.

Luya estimated that there were at least a dozen goblins on this mountain.
Since the dragon lived on this mountain, there were no griffons that dared approach, which were the goblins’ natural enemy.
They had practically formed a small tribe.
It would be a waste if Luya didn’t take advantage of this natural resource.
Even though the goblins wouldn’t listen to her, if it were the dragon…

When she played Harvest Moon6 in the past, she had been able to enslave seven elves to water and harvest her crops.
Why couldn’t she enslave some goblins?

She could have the goblins plough the land, plant crops, build houses, and grab some poultry to make a post-apocalyptic farm.
There was a hot spring right next to their home, so there would be no reason to go back to human society.
Didn’t she always dream about living the farm life when she worked 80-hour weeks in the past?

At the very least she could become self-sufficient.
Even though life wouldn’t be easy, when Luya thought of her compatriots who were being slaughtered in the human farms, she was already lucky enough… she had seriously been saved by an angelic dragon from heaven.

When the red dragon comes back, she’d discuss her plan with him to see if it was possible to rein in the goblins that lived on this mountain… that said, there was also a ruin on this mountain, and traces that humans lived here in the past.
If possible, she wanted to explore this mountain to see if she could find anything useful.

While Luya was thinking about her beautiful plan, the Shiba Inu beside her suddenly became alert.
Before Luya could even react, the Shiba Inu suddenly tackled her to the ground.
At the same moment, an enormous fireball flew past Luya’s original spot, and exploded on the ground with a boom7.

“…”

The fuck?!

What the hell was this?!

Author’s notes:

Currently, I owe 4400 words from fertilizers, which is one and half chapters.
At 6000 bottles of fertilizer, it’ll be two chapters.

Combined reply: In this universe, a Favored person is someone who is useful to God, and they have indeed received God’s favor.
They have special powers, can receive special distinctions from completing God’s tasks, and can even be possessed by God.
For example, when God doesn’t want to damage his own body, he can possess the body of a Favored one, and then retreat safely even if he is defeated.

Recommending a work by my bestie: I’m not tragic, how may I help you? By Fuya

In the first chapter, she wanted to write about me transmigrating, so I helped her edit it a bit!

The boss is even more nasty than the one in the original work

I suggested a bunch of wicked ideas in the first few chapters.
Watching her is just like watching me (not really)

Translator’s notes:

Woken up (吵醒): Has a connotation of being woken up by noise. Old-fashioned (直男): Literally, “straight male”.
Means a traditional guy. Careless (随便): Willing to go along with anything; indifferent. This line says, “didn’t pursue happiness”, conveying the idea that the dragon doesn’t do anything for fun. Despicably (白了她一眼): Literally, “gave her a white eye”, which is an idiom for a despicable look. Harvest Moon: A video game series centered around farming.
In the series, you can “befriend” “Harvest sprites” to help do things, but the original raw uses the term “enslave”… Boom (咻): The sound effect in the original raw is actually, “sheeoo”
