#306
“Dragon King…!”
Ronan exclaimed. It was a face I hadn’t seen in a long time. It was Ajidahaka, the Dragon King who was entrusted with the task of protecting Drimoore after being reborn, the lord of Adren.
Even though the golden body was covered with scars, it still did not lose its shine. The two heads of the Dragon King focused on him and opened their mouths at the same time.
【It’s been a while-】
【I am the child who saved the dragon city.】
His strange speaking habits were still there. As her left head began to rhyme, her right head spoke. Ronan, who had been dumbfounded, chuckled.
“…You came quickly. “You even look healthy.”
To be honest, I thought they were all killed by the giants a long time ago. It was too late, and no matter how flexibly we were instructed to respond, there were too many giants. The left side of his head raised an eyebrow.
【Sorry for being late-】
【I was just cleaning up after myself.】
The Dragon King explained that he was late because he had to gather resistance forces and rescue Navarre. Now that I think about it, I was wondering how he found out the location of Navarre, which even Ade Shan had not found yet. Ronan shook his head.
“I’m thankful just for coming. But how did you find Navardose?”
【It was truly heavenly luck. Someone you know well…】
The Dragon King was about to answer a question. Kwaaaaaaaaaaaa! A roar as if mountains collided rang out from the spot where Navardoje and the King of Giants fell. As I lowered my head, I could see the king and Navarreau engaged in a barbaric melee.
【Go away now, you monster!】
『How dare an immortal of an inferior race…!』
It was an overwhelming sight just to see. Navarre’s teeth were flashing, and red and blue blood was spattering every time the king, who had let go of his great sword, swung his fist. The giants who were attacking the allied forces changed course one by one, trying to help the king.
【···I guess-】
【I think we should deal with that first.】
“I agree.”
Ronan nodded after hearing the Dragon King’s words. It was a trivial explanation that I could listen to later. A loud cry shook the night sky.
【I say it! Everyone from Drimoor must obey my orders!】
【Kill the dirty intruders and prevent the end of the world!】
Then, golden wings that were a thousand meters wide spread out as if exploding. Hahaha! A fierce wind tore the clouds apart. Behind the white sea that covered the sky, hundreds of dragons appeared.
【Kraralara-!】
【Hahaha, it’s a suitable place for a long life!】
The roar echoed. It really seemed like everyone came together. The dragons, led by the Dragon King, began to descend all at once.
It was a sight as if the sky was falling. The panicked giants threw spears of light, but after going through a fight with Doaru, they were not shot down as easily as before.
『That movement…』
【Did you think we would just suffer?】
【You monsters!】
Perplexity appeared on the giants’ faces. The Allied forces on the ground and the dragon army coming down from the air began to crush them, acting as hammers and anvils. Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind Ronan.
【Ronan. I was indebted to you before.】
“you···.”
Ronan turned his head. A dragon whose entire body was pure white was looking down at her. Silver-white scales made of metal. It was Naransonia, the iron dragon who was the Dragon King’s closest confidant.
【I just received news about your sister. Somehow, most of them tasted good. We will also send reinforcements.】
“thanks. I guess the general delivered it to me. But you, your wings…”
Ronan suddenly saw Naransonia’s wings and narrowed his eyes. Her wings, which had been torn off while fighting the two giants, had grown back.
Come to think of it, the Dragon King’s left hind leg was also back in good condition. I was wondering if even a dragon could regenerate like this. A young man popped his head out from Naransonia’s back.
“What do you think? Doesn’t that seem like a good idea? “I think it was really well made.”
“Fuck it, I’m surprised.”
Ronan, surprised by the sudden appearance, cursed. What is that bastard riding over there? The young man who was looking at Ronan burst into laughter.
“Hahaha, I’m scared. “Even though he’s such a bastard, he has a cute side.”
“What are you?”
“Could it be that you don’t remember? “This is disappointing.”
The young man chuckled as if he was dumbfounded. The strangely irritating look on the top somehow looked familiar. The savior who was looking up at them from the ground widened his eyes.
“Alibrihe?”
“···saver.”
The young man who made eye contact with the savior avoided his gaze. It was the expression of someone who was feeling some sort of remorse. Ronan raised his eyebrows when he heard the name Alibrihe.
A master of prosthetic hand making and one of Nebula Clazier’s elders. He was the black dragon they met and parted ways with in Adren.
Now that I think about it, the Alibrihe I saw in the savior’s memory took on the same youthful appearance as he does now. She was just giving off the appearance of an old man with her polymorph, but that’s what I saw. The savior who was staring at him spoke.
“Nice to meet you. “Friend.”
“…don’t call me that. “How dare I have the shame to call you my friend.”
Alibrihe twisted his lips. Unlike Elthea, she seemed to feel remorse over the fact that she had cooperated with Nebula Clazier for a long time. The savior continued speaking regardless.
“Why should we avoid the rain? “Did you free Navardose?”
“···Well, that’s right. “The sealing stone that Abel used was originally designed and made by me.”
Alibrihe hesitated. He is also a genius inventor, and it is said that one day, under Abel’s orders, he created a magic tool that could seal even the most powerful being.
“A lot of materials that could never be obtained again were used. “It was the greatest masterpiece of my life… I never thought it would be used to seal the Mother of Fire.”
“Are you saying it wasn’t originally intended for that purpose?”
“I don’t know the details, but it’s probably true. “Because Abel didn’t even see Navardose as a variable in the first place… is Abel dead?”
“maybe. “To be honest, I don’t know.”
The savior narrowed his brows. Alibrihe tilted his head at the ambiguous answer. If you’re dead, you’re dead. What does “maybe” even mean?
“Well, you just have to check it gradually. “That…Cain.”
“Why but?”
“I’m sorry. really.”
Alibrihe bowed his head. It was a statement that conveyed a lot of regret. The savior smiled slightly and raised his hand as if he was okay.
Ronan deliberately didn’t say anything. Whether it’s a monster that drank the blood of a giant or a dragon, the pride of all males is the same. Before long, Ali Bry He lifted her head and grinned.
“Haha… By the way, this is the first time I’ve seen such a mess in my life.”
The world was so scary and noisy everywhere that there was nowhere to focus your eyes. I haven’t seen anything like this since I hatched. Even though she had been informed of the situation in advance, she could not help but be shocked.
Flames were rising from various parts of the headquarters, which boasted of being impregnable. An unknown storm was roaring around the top of the castle tower.
Nebula Clazie’s destruction was just around the corner. He thought that no matter what he did, he would not be able to defeat Abel and that there was no hope, but people ended up doing it.
‘They really protect it.’
Alibrihe was so overcome with emotion that he clenched his fists. Ronan, who looked back and forth between him and his savior, opened his mouth.
“You didn’t say you would remain a bystander?”
“···You don’t even give me time to be impressed. Well, I was going to do that, but I changed my mind.”
“Why all of a sudden?”
“Seeing you and your friends gave me hope. “Even though it’s a bad idea, I keep getting this naughty thought that I might be able to do it.”
Alibrihe grumbled. He is said to have created artificial bodies for the Dragon King’s legs and Naransonia’s wings, as well as for all other crippled dragons.
“That’s good.”
Ronan grinned. The situation is much better than before.
It was no exaggeration to say that the legions led by Navardose and the Dragon King were the most powerful force on this planet. Ronan took a deep breath and continued.
“good. “Then let’s finish this quickly.”
Alibrihe answered with a smile. At the same time, Ronan, who activated his aura, climbed onto Naransonia’s back.
The fluttering wings folded as if they were sticking to the body. Quaaaaa! The fastest dragon in Adren began diving towards the king of giants.
****
【Hahaha! I am the strongest!】
【Khehehe, kehehehe!】
bang! Quang! The dragons fell into a happy dream one by one. The dragons that giggled despite their broken bones were all troops sent to capture Iril. Her abilities broke the minds of even the most powerful races in the world.
“Ahahaha…okay, shall we play there?”
Iril was still walking around the battlefield, laughing brightly. It was difficult to catch her because she walked unreasonably fast. A squadron of her dragons were pursuing her in the sky, and an allied force commanded by her Ade Shan was pursuing her on the ground.
[Don’t let down your guard and keep a certain distance!]
Adeshan shouted in full voice. She took her eyes off the king for a moment and focused on Iril.
Whoa! The dragons that had been blindly chasing Iril flew into the air. They cursed as they watched their compatriots being idiots in real time.
【Damn it, what kind of ability is that?! That smart Ulfrancita has turned into a complete idiot!】
【It’s annoying, but can’t I just burn it?】
“I mean this, but you’d better never say that again.”
Adeshan gave a stern warning. Fortunately, when Ronan’s name was mentioned, the dragons became obedient without any complaints. They knew who killed Duaru and saved Adren.
【I get it. okay. You just have to do what you’re told!】
At that time, one of the chaser dragons activated magic. As soon as his horn flashed, huge rock walls rose up around Iril. Grumble! A wall each measuring 10 meters high completely blocked her escape route.
[Now is the time, surround!]
Seizing the opportunity, Adeshan gave the command. The soldiers chasing Iril nearby rushed in.
Their minds were taken over and they played their roles faithfully, even though they were laughing stupidly. Adeshan saw them jumping inside the rock wall and asked the savior.
“Are you sure you’ll be fine if you drink this?”
In her hand was a small glass bottle. Red liquid was oozing from inside her. It was the blood that the savior drew from near the heart.
“okay. Probably so. “I don’t know what method my foolish brother used, but it was probably some kind of curse.”
“All right. Fortunately, the solution itself is quite simple.”
Adeshan breathed a sigh of relief. I was wondering if there was no way to knock it out or confine it somewhere, but it seemed like there was no need to do such rough things.
Now, I was wondering how to give medicine to the shaking girl. Quaaaaang-! Suddenly, an explosion occurred inside the rock wall surrounding Iril.
“what?!”
Adeshan and the Savior turned their heads at the same time. All sides of the siege wall had collapsed and was spewing out dust. Adeshan bit his lower lip after looking at the neat cross section.
“···It must be more difficult than you think.”
All of the deployed personnel had fallen unconscious. Soon, a woman appeared above the scattered people. She looked around and muttered in a trembling voice.
“W-Why are you doing this to us?”
“shit.”
Adeshan sighed. Iril, whose eyes were still closed, was holding a long sword in his right hand. In the world beyond her eyelids, she was desperately resisting the enemy who was trying to threaten her brother and children.
“…Are you hallucinating? “No one was killed during that time.”
The Savior muttered. Among the soldiers lying around, some were cut or stabbed with swords, but no one died.
‘Do we really have to use rough methods?’
Adeshan gritted his teeth. If things continued like this, he would have to deploy more troops offensively. I feel really sorry for Ronan, but I felt like Iril might get a little hurt.
I wanted to find another way, but I couldn’t afford it. No matter how much she was, it was not at all easy to manage both the troops opposing her giant and the pursuit team at the same time.
Adeshan had made a decision and was about to send a message. From somewhere not far away, someone’s voice was heard.
“I… don’t do it.”
“what?”
I have heard that familiar voice throughout my four lives. Ade Shan’s eyes widened as she turned her head.
Schlieffen Sinivan de Grancia. The genius who had ascended to the position of the best swordsman on the continent, despite all the variables, stood there covered in blood.
