Reincarnated as a dragon’s egg ～Lets aim to be the strongest～

Baal lunges forwards.
Without time to dodge, I end up taking the ramming attack head-on.
A shock runs through my body as I’m blasted backwards.

I slam my tail against the ground to stop, quickly regaining my balance.
I somehow managed to get away with just being forced back.

But, it’s still bad.
That attack broke a number of bones in my shoulder and chest.
My entire body is screaming out in pain.
It was an incredibly heavy ramming attack.
Baal’s stats are unmistakably far above my own.

Treant-san is hurrying back towards me.

『Master-dono! Front! Front!』

F-front…? I hurriedly gather my thoughts scattered by the pain and lift my head to look in front.
But Baal is still standing in place, all three heads guffawing crudely.
The other [Spirit Servants] don’t seem to be moving yet either…

Diagonally above me, God’s Voice is floating.
Their half-broken face is grinning widely.
At the end of their outstretched hand, black light is gathering.

“What’s wrong? Did you seriously think I wouldn’t do anything just because I brought out my [Spirit Servants]? With a mind that weak, it’s amazing you thought you could ever outwit me.”

『What are you…!?』

The black light expands, becoming a giant magic circle that completely covers my surroundings.
I sense something strange.
This isn’t just an attack.
What’s God’s Voice planning…?

As I hurriedly try to get away, God’s Voice’s arm lowers down to point at me.
A sudden wave of discomfort assails me, feeling like my brain is being shaken.
My mind goes pure white, and I’m unable to think of anything.

“Ga, ga, a…”

“Stop fumbling around uselessly.
Don’t make me keep saying this.
You’re out of options.”

A-another of those mental attacks! Miia said that God’s Voice used this attack often.
It’s probably the perfect technique for getting an opponent to quickly submit without killing them.

The light of the magic circle wraps around my body.
I can’t move.
I can’t lift my forelegs.
It seems to be a skill that takes some time to immobilise the target, but that time was easily bought by the mental attack.

“Dragon-god-sama!”
『Master-dono!』

Aro and treant run towards me.
They step into the area of the black magic circle.

『Stay away! Something’s about to happen!』

“Did some small flies get mixed in? I don’t want my garden to be polluted, but… Well, I suppose it doesn’t matter.”

God’s Voice’s eyes thin.

I desperately try to kick away with my rearlegs, trying to escape from the magic circle.
But my legs don’t hit solid ground.
It feels as though they’ve slipped into the ground.

Wh-what has happened to me…?

“[Otherworld Sending]”

“Raise your level.
The hostages are everyone you’ve ever met in this world.
If you don’t hurry up and return, they’ll all die.”

The sound of God’s Voice’s laughter fades further and further away.
