Chapter 69 – Staggered Battlegrounds (2)
====================
The dragon began to roam the sky.
Yushin and Allen were observing the evil dragon of Salamanca under the shade that could not be seen from above.
Ragged scales.
Even the ugly side and the wings that seem to be worn out.
Certainly, that ugly-looking dragon must be a member of a clan that broke the clan’s rules. It was a curse of color applied to dragons that broke the rules. Yushin slowly watched the tyranny of the evil dragon and began to look for areas that could be weak points.
“All dragons who violate the clan’s rules are cursed without exception. Even the mana accumulated in one’s heart becomes crippled, unable to use it as one pleases.”
Yushin explained to Allen.
While enumerating the curses of dragons that broke the rules, he mentioned the weak points.
“The amount of mana that can be used at one time is limited. A dragon that breaks the rules will have no choice but to suffer from lack of mana as the energy stored in its heart freezes.”
A dragon with surplus of mana even after continuously firing magic for dozens of days is lacking in mana.
Of course, this was not the case for normal dragons. This only applies to ugly fugitives who have betrayed their clan and abandoned discipline.
Dragons know the cost of breaking the rules and betraying their clan, so no one tried to desert them. That’s why it was a very rare case of a fugitive who was cursed by the clan. I’ve only heard about Yoo Shin, but this was the first time I’ve seen it in person.
“Can’t I just hit him?”
“How are you going to bring out the guy above the sky? Be patient for now.”
It is clear that the dragons are targeting them.
It must have been.
After rescuing the elves who were about to be eaten by monsters, the dragon started rampaging.
However, the dragon, apparently unaware of the location of the targets, showed acts of madman attacking at random, such as firing magic at a barren wasteland or breathing its breath toward a ridge.
“Come down.”
Just as expected,
The dragon, which had been firing magic indiscriminately in the sky, finally began to descend as it slowly folded its huge wings.
Now is your chance.
Yushin held his breath as he slowly drew the lightning sword. On the other hand, Allen seemed to have no intention of hiding her momentum, so she began to prepare to sprint with her dragon chaser stretched out.
“Where are you going, wait.”
Yushin stopped Allen from jumping out in front of her while tugging at Allen’s back.
* * *
The evil dragon of Salamanca came down to the ground to take a breath.
Half of the mana was depleted.
The evil dragon gritted his teeth and lamented over his situation, which had become close to crippling.
He who fired high-level magic continuously while radiating near-infinite mana, how did he fall into such rags? The evil dragon gritted its teeth while swearing at the Dragon Lord, the one who put a terrible curse on him.
– Find it. Find out where the bugs are.
Kudeudeuk.
Cooggy play.
Digging through the mounds of dirt revealed skeletons clad in tattered armor.
A bodyguard who serves the dragon,
It was a dragon soldier who appeared mainly in myths and legends.
Bondi dragon soldiers should have been armed with armor bound by the dragon’s mana. However, the dragon soldiers raised by the evil dragon of Salamanca looked like defeated soldiers. Because her magician, the dragon’s mana, had fallen to a poor level, her dragon soldiers were also weak.
“I will take your order.”
“Human. And the elf… , I will find it.”
The mercenary soldiers born from authority scattered.
The mercenary soldiers who received orders from the evil dragon set out to find humans and elves hiding somewhere in the unexplored area.
Mercenaries never stop until they complete their orders. They will surely find traces of humans and elves. When the evil dragon of Salamanca discovered humans and elves, he not only informed himself, but also ordered their villages to be raided and razed to the ground.
“There are not many days left to live in this pathetic state. If you catch the elves and eat the fresh mana, you can return to your original form.”
The evil dragon, who had transformed into a human through polymorph, muttered as he clenched his fists.
Black history of the past.
It reminded me of the past where I was stopped by El Cid.
Hundreds of years ago, she ate countless elves alive while roaming the Liberia Peninsula. She wasn’t interested in cannibalism. It was just to extort the weak remaining mana in her body while chewing and eating the flesh of the elves. She was an evil dragon that gained notoriety by eating up to 3,000 elves, but in the end, she was subjugated by El Cid, who was called the hero of the elves, and fell into the unexplored land.
“El Cid, I will definitely show you the destruction of the Liberia elves. Let me shed bitter tears of blood. And Dragon Lord, someday you will surely too.”
The evil dragon gnashed his teeth.
Hundreds of years have passed, but the vengeance has not worn off at all.
Rather, as time passed, the vengeance was growing in size like a roaring forest fire. Fiercely, the flames in the heart will rage and become the flames that burn the Elf country.
“A fugitive dragon.”
A black-haired human walked by.
I faced the dragon who was locked in a vengeful spirit with his sword dangling as the lightning flashed over.
The sudden appearance of the human made the evil dragon astonished. Although he was deep in thought, it was surprising that he did not feel the presence of a human until he approached.
“Human… !”
You are the one….
The evil dragon opened his mouth and at the same time stretched out his hand and tried to cast magic at Yushin.
But at that moment, the blue-haired female knight approached from behind and grabbed the evil dragon’s hand. When the hand he was trying to stretch out in front of him was stopped, the evil dragon let out a saliva and tried to distance him.
Fast!!
His whole arm was broken.
It was no exaggeration to say that the bones were broken like sugar cane. The evil dragon, whose hand was completely turned to the opposite side, was caught by Allen without a moment to feel the pain.
“Gagging!!”
Allen threw the cursed evil dragon to the ground.
Slammed down with his feet
The evil dragon, whose face was trampled on by a mere human, tried with all his might to get up, but it didn’t budge as if a boulder had risen.
Allen mercilessly trampled her foot. Every time the evil dragon’s face was crushed, his blood flowed out. The sight of him bleeding as the skin on his face was ripped open was terrifying.
“Dragon, what are you doing here?”
Yushin asked.
The evil dragon gnashed his teeth.
I felt a sense of humiliation at the human gaze arrogantly looking down.
If only it wasn’t for the curse holding back the power! The evil dragon vomited hatred, saying that if he had the power of a perfect body, he wouldn’t have been humiliated by humans. However, despite the dragon’s hatred, Yushin and Allen did not budge.
“You know who I am… !!”
“It’s the year that escaped from the group and played the role of king in an area infested with monsters.”
“Dare!”
Coo!!
As the resistance of the evil dragon, which was struggling under the ground, became stronger, Allen dropped the dragon chaser.
The sharp blade landed close to where the evil dragon lay. The evil dragon, who witnessed the blade of the great sword, which had deadly power to the dragon very close, had to swallow his dry saliva and shake his whole body.
‘The sword that kills the dragon… , Why does this hideous thing belong to this human?! Apparently, the Dragon Lord collected them all… !!’
It is a sword of violence that tramples the life of a dragon who lives near infinity.
The evil dragon’s resistance stopped.
The deadliest sword for dragons was right in front of their noses.
If his throat is cut by this sword, he will die as a polymorphed human. Originally, polymorph was a magic designed to return to the main body when it suffered near-death damage, but the dragon chaser was a lethal weapon designed to take the dragon’s life entirely along with magic.
“Ugh…. That’s it… !!”
The evil dragon gave up resistance.
It was because he was afraid of the fear of death that he experienced again in hundreds of years.
He has to live somehow.
You must survive and achieve your revenge.
If you devour humans and elves with plenty of mana in your body, you can temporarily use the power of the perfect body. If you do that, you will be able to pay back this humiliation dozens, no hundreds of times.
“Stupid lizard, what the hell did you do? Stuck in a corner of the country and acted like a king and then went crazy?”
At Allen’s question, the evil dragon’s face heated up with contempt.
Tried to solve polymorph.
However, he couldn’t try because he knew that the sword would slash his throat before he could return to his body.
The one who saved her from being driven to death by her limbs was her familiar horse, given to her by Cordoba. An undead knight made of dark bones aimed at Yushin. However, Yushin smashed the undead in an instant with her thunderbolt-laden kick.
“Amazing. To think that a human who has reached the realm of a hero will appear. Did they follow us?”
The lich, clad in a gorgeous robe, cut through the space and showed a face with a hole in it.
The familiar attached to the evil dragon of Salamanca has disappeared. Sensing that, Cordova sensed that something was wrong and she joined immediately.
“Who are you, bone?”
“Don’t answer questions with questions, Human.”
Cordova also stretched out her hands and steadily pulled out black mana.
A sharp chain sprang up.
Hundreds of chains unfolded simultaneously, filling the surroundings.
The sharp end of the chain aimed at Yushin and Allen. Intoxication is concentrated in the blackened chain. The poison was so terrifying that even Allen instinctively felt the danger.
“Step back.”
“Okay.”
At Yushin’s words, Allen let go of the evil dragon that had been oppressing her while trampling it with her feet.
At the same time, the evil dragon returned to its main body and began to spread its two huge wings. The gray-scaled dragon, tattered like rags, spewed out all the energy it could radiate while spewing out a sense of humiliation.
Ooooo-!!!
Anger, enmity, hatred,
It poured out of the dragon, twisted and defiled in an ugly way.
* * *
Liana has arrived in Leon.
She broke through hundreds of ferocious monsters with her short-term skill.
The sight of Liana appearing covered in blood all over her body made Leon’s guards, who guarded her walls, astonished at her. She was a guard who was thought to be a kind of monster, but soon after, when Liana showed the proof of the 12 Warriors, her castle gate was opened.
“What about the wires?”
Liana, who was wiping her blood-soaked face and her chest, asked the captain of Leon’s guards.
The guard’s face darkened.
She didn’t know what to say, so she pursed her lips.
“The whole thing is precarious. Right now, all the troops of the Elven country are heading towards Maherit.”
The front line blocking the demon lord’s army and the capital of the Elf country, Maherit, were located at a fairly close distance.
You never know when the wires will break.
So the Council of Yetzirah issued a general mobilization order and requisitioned the troops of the provinces.
The greatest threat to the Elf nation is the Demon King. It is immortal and immortal. As long as the demon lord of the heat wave is not subdued, the advance of the demon lord’s army will never stop and will continue until the capture of Maherit. Liana hurriedly tried to inform Yushin of the unfavorable situation in the elven country.
“Give me the fastest horse.”
“Yes, I understand!”
It was Liana who broke through the monsters and entered Leon at the end of her life, but she changed her horse again and tried to ride into her unexplored land.
