Chapter 269 – Reunion
The way the guards threw themselves was quite different from Trisian’s.
After seeing Trician shooting a huge iron stake, the javelins thrown by the guards looked like toothpicks.
Nevertheless, the effect seems to have been certain, and the javelin that Trisian had removed from Drake’s back was properly lodged, causing him pain.
The spear that flew into the bright red raw flesh was pierced, and red blood dripped down.
Whether the spear hit or not, the guards tugged at the rope.
It was to retrieve the javelin in case it bounced off the scales, and in the case of being hit, it was to pull it as hard as it could to suppress its movement while inflicting pain on it.
“Um, did you get it done?”
What came out of his mouth was a magical spell that reversed the situation.
However, there is no variable that can change this perfect situation now.
Nataliya’s troll skeleton is crushing him, and he is unable to move his upper body, and the javelin thrown by the guards is stuck in his scaled back, making him look like a hedgehog.
“By the way, the power of Trisian’s magic is considerable.”
“It is an unfinished magic that is incomplete in many ways. It takes a long time to cast, and it’s hard to hit such a huge target.”
At my praise, Trisian shook his head.
There is truth in her words.
First of all, it took a long time to prepare the iron stake, and it took more than 10 seconds to aim and fire it.
If Natalia’s troll skeleton hadn’t held onto the drake, she probably wouldn’t have been able to use it.
“Well, wouldn’t it be nice if the results were good?”
“You are not wrong…”
The decision has been made.
All that remains is who will ensure that Drake’s life ends. After the mercenaries talked about something, the old man returned to me.
“Oh, Roin. What were you talking about?”
“Gemanic decided to finish it off.”
“A genetic?”
“Huh. Because the knife I have is too small. A gemonic flame sword would probably be suitable.”
We see Gemenic walking between the troll skeleton’s legs.
Drake’s head is still high, so it can’t be reached properly, but over time, it will probably be high enough to reach from the height of Gemanic.
The only part of Drake’s body that enjoyed freedom was the hind leg, which he had been holding on to, but it seemed that he was gradually reaching his limits as he swayed on that side as well.
Well, since there are about 30 spears stuck in and being pulled, you must be feeling quite a bit of pain.
“Kwaaaaa!!!!”
“Ugh… !”
The sound of the boy’s angry cries instantly chilled the conversation.
It was all just the cry of a dying guy, and I was momentarily frightened by it. The guards nearby seemed to have felt the same thing, and their expressions instantly blurred.
“After… One cry from a dying man…”
“It looks like Dragon Fear.”
“Dragon Fear?”
As she tilted her head at the first words she heard, Natalya answered with her eyes fixed on Drake.
“Because even Drake has dragon blood flowing. You should be able to use that power.”
“Is it a magic that only monsters use?”
“Probably similar.”
Did you say that monsters use magic through the manastones inside their bodies?
“Is this a last resort? Haha…”
“Kwaaaaa!!”
Perhaps feeling death approaching, Drake let out a roar.
“Cheuk, useless resistance,”
“Kwaaaaa!!”
“Oh, that’s noisy.”
“Kwaaaaah!”
The boy’s cries grow louder and louder.
“Um… ?”
The expression of Roin, who was next to him, was momentarily blurred.
At this point towards the end of her hunt, why did she have that look on her face?
That was the moment I was curious to ask.
“Kwaaaaa!!”
-Kwaaaaa!!!
As if answering the cries of the troll skeleton, the same roar came from somewhere.
“Uh?”
The second that could never happen, Drake’s cry?
Vibration of the earth. The sound of tree branches clanking loudly.
A new drake pounced ferociously through the trees.
“No, that’s ridiculous!!”
Two special monsters like Drake?
It’s nonsense. There is no way.
However, the guy is now showing that figure right in front of my eyes.
Seeing his dying brethren, he swung his tail at the guards pulling the rope with a hostile gaze.
“Ugh… !”
The guards who couldn’t even react to the overwhelming violence turned into mashed meat.
On the floor, only the red paste of his existence remained.
The second swing of the tail cut off all the javelins lodged in Drake’s back.
There is a clear difference in the speed of movement from the Drake we encountered at first.
Oh, of course it is.
The first guy I encountered was wounded and weak.
The new guy that has just appeared has very clean scales covering his body.
“Are you a guest in the blink of an eye?”
“These bastards, good luck with my familiars!”
I turned to the unfamiliar voice from behind.
Standing there were two slender thin men of the same height as a man who was about 2m tall and had a thick body as if his whole body was muscular.
But what caught my eye the most was the sharp horns on its head, not its large size.
“Yongin people!”
It wasn’t until I heard Trissian’s startled cry that I realized.
Yes, these two men are similar to the Liliana I met in Arpagon.
Tall and with horns on their heads, these two men here are truly dragon races.
The thin man’s horns glow softly in red.
The guy yelled at us with a frown on his face.
“These guys! I’m sure you’ve bullied my familiar!! First of all, there’s the necromancer girl! I will kill you first!”
As if he understood the slender man’s cry, Drake ran straight ahead.
He moved his tail and swung it like a whip.
Drake’s movements were so fast that he didn’t even have time to think about anything else.
He immediately hugged Natalya and rolled onto her side.
“Kyaa!”
“Keugh!”
Right after that, the ground where Natalia was standing turned upside down!
Natalya would have died if it was even a little late.
No, I still haven’t overcome the crisis.
Most of the forces are desperate to catch a crippled drake.
But suddenly an extra drake and two dragons appeared!
“This fuck…”
As soon as I am faced with an insurmountable crisis, my mind goes blank.
Regret.
Was it a foolish thing to pursue like this when you don’t know the size or number of the enemy?
How should I divide my current power to handle the increased number of drakes?
Is there any guarantee that the two dragons on the other side will stay still while the drake is taken care of?
“Maybe we can pull it off for an hour or so.”
What I heard was the voice of a very nervous Roin.
“What?”
“I told you. I feel good on rainy days… Maybe we can kill time against Drake over there.”
“You alone… ?”
“If you use the ability to turn your body into slime, you can avoid fatal injuries. It may hurt, but…”
“It’s crazy?! Are you thinking of dying?!”
“Hanseong-ah.”
I met Roin’s red eyes and gaze.
“With your weapon, I can finish off the drake over there. This will allow Natalya’s troll skeleton to move. Until then, it’s just a matter of waiting.”
“Kuu… !”
In Roin’s words, not a single word was wrong.
As she said, if I stick my scythe anywhere on Drake’s body that’s being held over there, I can suck all of his life force and turn him into a withered mummy.
Then the Troll Skeleton that was caught there will be freed.
The only thing that can stand up to this Drake right now is Natalia’s skeleton.
“In action! Husband!”
“Never get hurt!!”
At Roin’s cry, I jumped to my feet as if I had been electrocuted, and ran straight toward Drake, who was being crushed by the troll skeleton.
*****
I felt a strange resemblance between the thin guy and the drakes.
It must be that she is a sorceress who uses the drake that Natalya talked about before.
Then, who is the fat guy?
No, I don’t have to worry about that right now. Natalya, who was still on the floor, was lifted up.
“Mr. Roin.”
“Get out of your way to safety. I’ll keep an eye out for this Drake.”
“Yes, yes.”
While answering me, Natalya still doesn’t take her eyes off the skeleton.
She should have lost control of her troll skeleton when she was grabbed by Hanseong earlier and rolled on her floor, but she continues to maintain that connection with frightening concentration.
He turned his gaze towards Drake.
I threw the dagger straight into the yellow eyes of the guy who was looking at Natalia.
It was a fairly quick throw. He cut off my dagger in a blink of an eye.
“Here, let’s play with the sexy sister… ! Baby Lizard!”
“Kreur…”
