Chapter 270 – Reunion
The eyes are a fatal weakness for any creature.
Even after throwing a knife at that weakness, Drake’s eyes are still on Natalya.
Unlike monsters that move instinctively, this guy moves under the orders of the saboteur.
If he directly harms the manipulator, he will have no choice but to move the drake!
So, if you want to divert his attention, what you need to aim for is… !
“Die! A worthless fellow!”
I immediately threw the spare dagger stuck in my thigh at the guy.
“Wow!”
“Brother Silly, you should always be vigilant of your surroundings. It would be better to fix the clumsy personality.”
He didn’t expect much, but sure enough, a ragged guy next to him struck out a dagger with a rapier that he couldn’t figure out before he knew it.
“That bitch! How dare you throw a knife at me?! I’ll make you minced meat!!”
“You know it’s a huge loss to turn a beauty like me into minced meat, right?”
“Noisy! Die!!”
As expected, the sacrificial mage was angry at the attacker and immediately gave orders to Drake.
Drake’s bright yellow eyes, looking at Natalya, turn to mine.
If you fight with Drake at an ambiguous distance, you won’t be able to handle that tail’s attack.
The only way to prevent him from attacking with his tail was to catch up with Drake’s feet, or to follow closely with the magician so that he would not attack hastily.
Think.
What is the best move in this situation?
Although he said he would kill time against Drake, it would be better if he was aiming for more than just killing time.
If you take the magician hostage, you will be able to control Drake’s movements.
As soon as I finished my thoughts, I immediately jumped at the sacrificial magician called Silly and swung my sword, but this time I was blocked by the rapier of the ragged guy.
After blocking the kick that flew straight to his abdomen, he tumbled back as it was at the shock that pushed his body.
The arm that blocked the guy’s kick is tingling.
“It’s still too early for our young master to be a woman. You should play with me.”
“Joy… ! I don’t like men with thick muscles. And what is that knife that doesn’t fit his size? Toothpick?”
“Your mouth is a little harsh. I will teach you the qualities a woman should have.”
If you spread the distance halfway, the tail of the drake behind you will fly away. Attacks using the tail must be blocked.
He crouched down and kicked the ground with his mana-enhanced feet, catching up to the big guy.
With the dagger in his right hand, I press down on the rapier pointed at me and ride on the back of his sword.
A rapier with a long sword blade would be inconvenient to wield at close range. So the dagger becomes more advantageous.
Digging deep into his arms, I slashed the dagger held in reverse in my left hand toward his chest.
“Die! These balloon muscles!”
“What amazing speed! Whoops!”
As if he had anticipated my movement, he took a big step back and threw his upper body back as far as he could.
As if thanks to that movement, I pulled back the rapier that was crushed and raised the handle to block my attack.
“Ah! Shit! Gerita! Move!! Drake can’t attack!!”
“I’m a married man too! My wife gets jealous if you stick too close to another girl!”
“Huh?!”
The guy called Gerita swung the sword that had been raised upside down. Because his rapier and my dagger were tangled together, his hands were pulled along with Gerita’s sword, leaving his body full of gaps.
Just as he had his sword tilted to the side, he used his shoulder to hit me as hard as he could.
Due to the difference in weight class, I was hit by that strong force and fell as if I was bouncing backwards.
The distance separated by one torso head-butt is about 2M, and at this distance, Drake’s attack will fly!
Before I even turned my head, I felt a strong sense of life.
I need to turn my body into liquid… ! Alas, it is late.
I can’t possibly match Drake’s tail speed!!
“Oh… ! Han Sung-ah, I’m sorry… !”
The impact that would hit the body would have no effect, but I instinctively closed my eyes tightly.
Kwaaang!
The impact was felt not on the body, but on the ground next to it. A few pebbles flew up and grazed my cheeks.
“What?”
I was prepared to be crushed by the tail and split in two, but I was embarrassed to find that it ended with a few pebbles flying into my cheek.
It was a figure that was wrapped in steel and held up a large shield that could cover the body.
It didn’t take long to understand what was going on.
Trisian lifted his shield at an angle to deflect Drake’s attack!
“My limbs are tingling. You can’t spill it twice! I’ll take care of that big guy, so get the magician!”
“Thank you, Mr. Trissian!”
“Are you able to escape Drake’s attack with a human body?!”
Leaving Gerita who was making a noise as if he was full of energy, he immediately ran towards the sacrificial magician.
When he saw me running, he screamed in a fit of fuss.
“Ah!! Gerita!! What the hell are you doing!! Stop! You are coming to me!!”
I glanced behind me as I ran towards the sacrificial magician.
Gerita backed away from the approaching Trician and continued to attack.
Avoiding her shield and aiming for the joint gap in her armor, Gerita’s rapier was thrown sharply. Trissian moved her body a little to catch it with the wide side of her armor and deflect it, carefully following Gerita. .
She shouted as Gerita stepped hard behind her.
“What an iron wall! I’m busy here too! Here is the first lesson! You should get used to women too!”
“Don’t bullshit! I will tell my sister!!”
“Where are you dazzling when you have a beauty like me in front of you?!”
“Profit!”
I reached the magician in no time. She threw her dagger at him, but was blocked by a wall that suddenly appeared.
“Kuu?!”
My wrist feels numb like stabbing a knife into a solid wall!
It’s Drake’s tail.
I couldn’t swing my tail because I was afraid I would get caught in the attack, but I put my tail between me and the sorcerer and blocked my attack!
It moved the tail that stood in the way like a wall and wrapped up the magician as it was.
The sacrificial magician, wrapped around Drake’s tail, exclaimed with vigor.
“You cheeky bitch! I will trample on you like this!”
I thought I would only have to catch the saboteur, but if I lift it up with my tail like that, I can’t reach it!
When this happens, there is no other way than to kill time against Drake!
Still, Drake’s most dangerous weapon, the tail, was sealed to protect the master magician.
If so, it’s worth a try!
“Oh, is a beauty like me still too irritating for Cherry Boy?”
“Crazy bitch! Who’s called Cherry Boy! Drake! Step on it!”
“Crowa!”
Drake roars at the Master’s command and jumps straight at me, swinging his paws!
A huge mass mass is very threatening just by moving.
I jumped under the body of Drake to avoid the front foot flying from the side.
I was leaning so hard that it almost felt like a forward roll.
As soon as I got under Drake’s belly, I ran towards his hind legs. The best way to deal with such a huge monster is to use its body to get out of sight.
Drake moved his body in bewilderment as I disappeared from sight.
I ran tenaciously and ran around on his lower belly.
You don’t even have to attack Drake.
If we just wait like this, it’s definitely our victory!
“이 쥐새끼같은 년이! Come out! Come out!”
“Shouldn’t we grow an eye for girls who can see cherries?! What a mouse for a beauty like me!”
“Ah!! Don’t call me Cherry Boy!!”
It seems that this low-key saboteur is the type to fall for his provocations quite easily. I like that he is easy to handle.
I screamed, jumping from place to place, running under Drake’s belly as he tried to find me.
“Is the Drake being held over there yours too? You can’t do that~ You should take good care of your pet.”
“You cheeky bitch!”
Drops of rain falling incessantly fall on my face from time to time and tickle me.
However, the raindrops seem to wash away the sweat, so it is extremely pleasant.
“The Drake over there is going to die in a while, what are you going to do? Wouldn’t it be better to run away? We’ll dismember Drake’s corpse that was abandoned by you, and we’ll put every single scale to good use!”
“Fuck you! Fuck bitch! I will kill you! I’ll chew you up!!”
“My husband says my body is quite chewy, but wouldn’t it be hard to handle a cherry boy? I need to find a woman who is in charge of my subjects. What about the grannies selling their bodies in the back alleys over there? No. Would a hen from a chicken farm be more suitable for you? The size fits just right too! Kyahaha!”
“Ah! Shut up! I will kill you!”
The whole body is as light as a feather. The two eyes looking at the drake anticipate and foresee where the drake will run before it even moves.
Even though I run and roll without rest like this, my breath doesn’t fill up at all.
I feel like I could hold Drake on hold, even for an entire day.
At the sensation of the rising water, I felt an intrusive presence.
