Chapter 138 – Trial, and (1)
Did you live?
Lived
It wasn’t my story, it was the story of Han Yujin, who I was holding.
“Uh, uh…”
I was blown away by the impact along with flying fragments, but I was unharmed due to the ‘Heavenly Armor’ I was already wearing.
It may have been a direct hit from the bone dragon’s exhaled breath, but the ‘Heavenly Armor’ was not an artifact that could be easily pierced by a flying fragment.
In addition to the fragments, it bounced around from the impact, but even that was fine due to the excellent shock absorption ability of the ‘Heavenly Armor’.
However, I don’t know, but Han Yu-jin, who was rolling around with her, could only let out her excited voice and could hardly open her eyes.
He was breathing properly and didn’t seem to be hurt anywhere, so it could have been a simple faint.
“Whoa…”
Still, I’m glad.
When I looked at the surrounding area, which was a mess with collapsed buildings and debris flying in all directions, I thought this was something.
『Khahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha-! Still, still, still, still, still a beautiful light, my other half, my soulmate, my lovely soul, you are still beautiful-!』
And, he is the one who turned this once peaceful place into a wasteland.
No, the voice of the person in charge was still loud and resounding.
Light.
The sound of laughter that could only be heard like that continued to echo in my ears.
『My dear, this time I will make you accept my marriage proposal. Breathe out, my lovely Draganias. Come here! My sweet slaves! Bring me the most lovely queen of the dead who worships light!』
Kuooooo
Once again, mana began to gather around the bone dragon’s mouth.
Not only that, but countless skeletons began pouring in through the huge door that opened above the bone dragon.
Necromancer.
As if raising the corpse of a dragon and using it to eat wasn’t enough, he is a transcendentally powerful necromancer who commands what appears to be tens of thousands of skeletons.
I couldn’t close my mouth at the sight that was far beyond my imagination.
However.
『Do you really think you would accept a marriage proposal from a coward who doesn’t even show his face for fear of leisure? Stand up, heroes! Kings! Protect your subjects!』
Light flashing with a voice. And, on this side too, numerous armies began to stand up.
That one was a transcendentally powerful necromancer, but this one… The little pharaoh was also the ruler and pharaoh of the Kingdom of Narmer, which was made up of thousands of master-level necromancers.
Although they were few in number compared to the bones pouring down from the sky, all of them were well-armed and could be seen rising up in an instant.
“Help Pharaoh!”
And, with a shout coming from somewhere, they stood up, flashing, and looked like they were heroes or kings. Next to the soldiers, who all looked excellently armed, even though they were a little meager, I could see more armed soldiers in their own way being added.
I forgot, but everyone in the Kingdom of Narmer was a master-level necromancer…
Anyway, even though the numbers were a little lacking here, the bones raining down from the sky could be seen turning into bone dust as they were all torn apart by the attacks of the troops shooting arrows made of light from below.
The problem is, it’s not that kind of bone.
“Warriors, protect the Pharaoh!”
Karura.
In addition to raising an army like the others, Karura himself was seen wielding a spear and a sword, smashing skeletons falling from the sky.
Following Karura, those with wings were swinging spears and swords at the pouring skeletons, and shooting arrows at them, knocking them down.
Some of them were shooting arrows that could only be seen through huge spears, just as they had been shooting the death worms at the bone dragon that was collecting mana, but they all seemed to be useless.
Isn’t this dangerous?
No, it’s dangerous.
The clash between armies was like the Middle Ages, but there seemed to be no one who could stop the breath of the most important bone dragon.
But there was nothing I could do.
Because I don’t have wings, and it’s not like I have any clue how to get involved in a fight like that, let alone the skeletons that haven’t come down yet and are being crushed in the sky.
There is no way for me, who is at best just for self-protection, to get involved…
“…Fuck you.”
Still, I couldn’t stay still, so I ordered Hoa, who took it out of my arms.
“Hoa, please send Han Yujin to a safe place.”
“Hoa?”
Hoa asked what I should do and ordered him to send Han Yujin to a seemingly safe place. Hoa nodded reluctantly and began to quickly walk away from this place while holding Han Yujin in his arms.
With this, I lost one of my insurance policies, but I couldn’t help it since I was watching someone I knew lose it.
Anyway, I was wondering if I could be of any help, but I ran towards the place where the fight was intensifying.
“…Sickness.”
There were people from the Kingdom of Narmer who looked like they had been killed by the sudden breath of a dragon, even if they were bones of a dispenser who had been accidentally knocked over by flying debris and a necromancer who had reached the level of a master.
“Fuck, really…”
I don’t know about the other dispensers, but the people of the kingdom of Narmer who died were all necromancers who had reached master level… They were strong people.
Am I really going to be of any help when people like that are dying so easily?
In the first place, what should I do with the breath that that bone dragon is emitting?
But, I still couldn’t stop.
But, before I even arrived.
The Bone Dragon’s Breath was completed first.
『Try to stop this too, try to stop the death of those you care about, my lovely one!』
With a frantic cry, the Bone Dragon let out its breath once again.
“No.”
The bone dragon’s breath blows towards the most intensified battlefield.
I saw Karura there, flapping her wings and swinging her spear.
“No, no, no, no.”
Why don’t you run away?
I wanted to ask that as I looked at Karura, who did not leave her seat despite seeing her exhaling breath.
“No, fuck!”
What on earth is little Pharaoh doing?
Instead of shooting something made of light like before.
That’s not what I should say when I can’t fucking do anything, I thought.
And, did you hear my wish?
The little pharaoh’s cry was heard in the air.
『Ammut! Ask!
Kwaaaaang!
The gigantic beast opened its mouth towards the bone dragon’s breath as if it was about to fly off the ground.
The beast, which had grown so large that it made you wonder if it had originally been that huge, was seen swallowing its breath as the monster controlled by the little pharaoh jumped up and bit the bone dragon.
Quad deuk!
Just like a dog crushing a bone with its molars, a huge monster that crushes and swallows the dragon in one bite, even though only the bones remain.
『Indeed, it is the fallen beast of God…! To crush and swallow my beloved Draganias in one bite…! I still want it! I will carve out the flesh and replace my beloved Draganias! Explode! Draganias!』
I thought it was over, but with that cry, I saw the Bone Dragon, whose head had been chewed by Ammut and half of it shattered, holding Ammut with both bony hands.
And.
It exploded.
Fuquaaaaa!
With a huge explosion, a huge beast was seen falling, with half of its body blown away.
And, the fragments of the exploded bone dragon rained down in all directions.
“Aaaaahhh!”
The people of the Kingdom of Narmer were seen falling to the ground with bone fragments pouring down.
However, the ones who suffered the most damage were those with wings, including Karura, who flew through the sky and dealt with the falling bones.
“Fuck, fucking…!”
I’m glad I didn’t just stare blankly.
Thinking so.
I gathered all the strength of my body into my two legs.
Werewolf racial characteristics enhanced to the limit.
I once again concentrated on my physical abilities only on my legs and jumped.
Kwasik!
I jumped several meters in one go, but it was still not enough.
Kwasizik, Kwasizik, Kwasizik!
So, I stepped on everything, including the collapsed building and the bone fragments of the Bone Dragon that were still falling down, and jumped up.
And then, he picked up Karura, who was falling after her wings were torn by the broken bone fragments of the bone dragon.
“Huh…!”
“Well, why are you-“
Karura said that as if she recognized me even though, except for her eyes, she was surrounded by ‘Heavenly Armor’.
But does that matter now?
“I don’t know, fuck. “Is now the time to ask that?”
How the fuck, I’m glad I made it this far, but I don’t have wings.
I don’t even know how I jumped tens of meters, but at this rate, I had no choice but to fall.
“Well, I won’t go after that.”
The problem is that when I saw the bones pouring in with me through the gap created by the chaos, by the time I set foot on the ground, I started playing nicely with those bones.
“Hey, I fucking don’t know. Karura, hold on tight to me.”
After nodding at my words, I held Karura, who was hugging me tightly, with one hand and fell down.
Kwazizig!
“Sssss
I was tingling, my legs were tingling so fucking much.
In fact, it was like landing from a high-rise building with only my two legs, but I wonder why my legs felt a little numb instead of being completely shattered.
“Tick, click, click…!”
A bone that came down to the ground almost like me.
Unlike me, even though his leg was completely shattered, I could see the bone that was quickly clinging to me and recovering, quickly crawling towards me.
“That’s damn good, you really are a fucking bonehead.”
Clap, clap!
An artifact that wraps around both arms.
With a push shot with the ‘dragon claw’, Werehoney Bee’s poisonous sting came out on top of the ‘dragon claw’.
“Search again, you motherfucker!”
Thump, thump, thump!
“Ta, taa…!”
Puff puff puff puff…!
Five poisonous needles shot out from one hand almost at the same time, and the bones hit by the poisonous needles were reduced to powder.
“…It’s really strong, really.”
As if the bones being smashed to pieces wasn’t enough, I could understand Justitia’s words that they were concentrating on stinging when I saw the five stingers stuck deep in the ground, creating a small crater.
Isn’t this the same as carrying five small cannons in each hand?
Looking at the tail that shattered the bone, it seems like you can shatter it if you hit it with just one shot at a time, rather than using all five shots like before.
But, that wasn’t important right now.
“Are you okay? Mr. Karura.”
“I… I’m fine. Rather, Pharaoh…”
When she saw Karura worrying about the Pharaoh with more than half of one of her wings torn off, she started to cry and felt like something was going on, but it wasn’t the right time for her to say anything to Karura.
The skeletons that fell to the ground, following the bones that fell first, were standing up in droves.
“Use it.”
“Clap,” He said.
She refilled the five stings from her right ‘dragon claw’ that she had already fired.
Originally, it is a bee punch that consumes the same amount of stamina as one shot, but with the help of the ‘Dragon Claw’, that increases to five shots.
It was a whopping five times more efficient, but even so, if you fired at all the skeletons that were constantly pouring in, even if you hadn’t hit one today and were preserving your stamina, shooting about 4,500 rounds would have been your limit.
And that’s while only using the bee punch.
The ‘Heavenly Armor’ and ‘Dragon Claws’ that I wear around my body are also artifacts that use energy, and the werewolf’s racial ability that is currently strengthening my body also consumes stamina.
Taking everything into account, Werehoneybee’s poisonous stinger can be fired approximately 1,200 times in the future.
Even if I just fire one shot at the skeletons around me right now, it’s not enough.
So.
“Crack, tick, tick…!!”
In order to somehow break through, I rushed towards the rising skeleton that was blocking my path.
And then I shook my fist.
“It’s just a punch, you fucking skull rip!”
