Note: First things first, I’d like to announce that we have our first patron, Christian Samillano, became a patron around a half a month ago, and I had admittedly forgotten to mention until I made sure to remind myself. Secondly, “Lady Witch” is going back to “Witch-sama”, that’s final, I apologize for any confusion my decisions might bring about.
Without further adieu, enjoy~

Thank you all for all your loving support! I’ll update it again before I go to bed on Saturday and Sunday!
“Many people in the Dragon tribe have a lot of mana and can change their appearance to that of a human being's like this, because if they do not do it, panic will occur if they go out to a human village”
Certainly if a dragon was to turn up in a village, it would probably cause an uproar. Even if all the village's inhabitants were to mobilize and fight back, there are no methods in existence to defeat such a huge monster.
It’s impossible for someone who calls himself "Waga" to be 13 years old as it is unbelievably chunnibyou. Ahh, however if it's chunnibyou, there is a possibly for her to be 13 years old.
(TL note: “waga” is an old-fashioned way of saying "I" in japanese. Example: “ryuu ga waga teki wo kurau” in overwatch)
"I see. One way or another, I have lived 300 years."
"So we are of almost the same age, huh."
"With that, we have just finished our self introductions, and I have brought the item today."
It does not seem to be the kind of weight that a regular girl could carry. However since she is a dragon, there is no problem.
After peering into it, the answer came out immediately.
"It's that sort of thing. I brought the money that I had saved up until now."
You have accumulated a surprising amount, dragon.
"Thank you. If it's that amount, I should be able to get the repairs done."
It seems to be sufficient to repair the house back to its original state, therefore I felt relieved.
However, as though she still had something to say, Leica was moji moji fidgeting.
I wonder if it’s the kind of scenario where, without this much money she wouldn't be able to save a daughter inflicted with an incurable disease? I’m not a demon, if there really were such circumstances I would sympathise.
"What is it? You won't lose anything by saying it, so it's fine if you just come out and say what you want."
"Yes, after fighting Witch-sama, I realized that I am still immature. I will abandon my conceited thoughts of being the strongest in Nanteru province and I plan to study from scratch again."
"That attitude is lovely. However, di-disciple?"
In my 300 years of living, I have not considered this even once before.
"You see. Since we had talked about it, I had said that it's not that you have become weaker. It is not due to my unique training that I had obtained power. It's just that I lived the life of continuing to fight the slimes in my neighborhood, I just accumulated experience and became like this."
"No no, there is no doubt that it's the accumulation of your effort, therefore I wish to follow your example! I, as a dragon trusted my innate powers too much and became complacent. I do not do things such as polishing my skills. With that, the result is that I was utterly defeated."
This dragon lass is more serious than I thought….
If there are no skills that I can teach her, there is no meaning in becoming my disciple.
So it's something like roommates
Staying with other people is different from slacking alone and it will cause stress.
Wait a second.
"Yes."
"Which means that you plan to do things such as making meals and cleaning the house? No, if I were to leave everything to you, that would leave nothing for myself."
If that's the case, I guess it would be fine.
"Thank you very much!"
Thus, I got a disciple.
"Erm, Leica, it's not just about repairing my house, or rather, we must consider about further expansion of the house."
I thought that I should change this way of calling me Witch-sama later as well but I decided to solve the problem before my eyes first.
"If you were to just solely repair the house, it would be too narrow for the two of us. Therefore, there is a need to extend the house instead."
“Therefore, I will sleep in the village for a while until the upgrading of the house is completed. You should also stay in the inn with me in the meantime.”
“If that’s the case, should I take care of the construction work myself?”
"Construction. You don't have an architecture licence, do you?"
She appeared as that of a 13 year old girl. Therefore, she does not have the impression that she is able to build a house. However, if she says so, I will try leaving it to her.
"If it's wood, I had obtained the privilege of using the forest area where I pick medicinal plants, so let's use those. I will leave it you."
"Thank you very much! I will work on it to ensure that it is to your liking!"
"Ahh, just in case, I will be going as well."
Once Leica reached the outskirts of the village, she returned back to a dragon.
"As flying in the air is more comfortable, I will move in this form, it's also easier to release my power."
Although we had reached the outskirts of the village, she is definitely visible from the village. After that, there is a need to explain it to the village.
"Witch-sama, please ride on my back as well. We will reach the forest in this way."
"Please stop addressing me as 'Witch-sama.'"
Because Leica is like a witch apprentice to apprentice to a witch, it is somewhat subtle. (ED: I think the meaning here is that since she became apprenticed to a witch she became somewhat like a de facto “apprentice witch” of sorts so calling her “witch, witch” all the time feels weird?)
"We are also living together as well. So calling me Azusa is fine as well."
Attaching the sama suffix…. Argh, it's fine. Since, I have become her master after all.
I got on her back. The ride was quite comfortable. At the very least there doesn't seem to be any risk of falling off..
I thought it somehow seemed like a taxi.
