chapter 26
26-Dragon Lord (2)
‘What is…’
About 5 minutes had passed since I heard a cry tearing through the air.
I was creating an atmosphere where something would pop out at any moment, but nothing actually happened.
The moment you are about to relax,
“Wow!”
“Back off.”
Alice’s scream was heard, and at the same time, something that appeared to be a human arm began to squeeze through the collapsed rubble and protrude. It was a slender arm that looked like a woman’s.
Why do you say that?
Those small arms were pushing rocks weighing hundreds of kilograms. Soon, a person began to crawl out, pushing through the wreckage.
“Who is the bad boy who destroyed my sister’s house?”
It was a tall woman. It was different from Cecile or Angelica. It just wasn’t good proportions. She was proud of her overwhelming height for a woman. Compared to me, who is over 190, she was only about one head smaller.
“Oh my~ You are more handsome than I thought, boy?”
The opponent with a strangely bewitching voice started talking while shaking off the dust from his body.
The mana leaking out from the surroundings was telling me. It was clear that she had mana created by ‘Dragon Heart’, which was far from human.
‘I came here with the intention of winning.’
Obviously there was a plan. She beat him to death, and she was going to steal some of the goods and treasures that the dragon hoards.
But… I felt like I should prioritize surviving now.
Undoubtedly, the strongest character in the original worldview was the Demon King. Next was the emperor and later Angelica.
At that level, I could have won if I fought to the death.
I thought I could win for that reason. I thought of him as a guy who shut himself up because he was afraid of the demon king anyway.
“Are you going to stand still?”
The opponent was holding old-looking books in both hands. After shaking off the book a few times, I noticed the dust falling.
In the collapsing cave, the thing called the top of the dragon is a book. Curiosity piqued.
“I don’t like bad boys who don’t even answer.”
As soon as the expression disappeared from the face of the opponent who had been laughing since the beginning, the mana floating around began to vibrate.
Overt hostility.
Elongated Alice’s ears, which had been wary of her opponent, pricked up. She bent her leg at the same time, and the ensuing leap.
Like when she blew her saint, she intended to kick her opponent.
However, the opponent was too bad.
“Nuna~ I like men.”
As if she wasn’t interested in Alice, who was approaching at high speed, she was staring at me. Then, she snatched Alice’s leg without giving her a glance.
“Eh?”
As soon as they heard a voice saying that they couldn’t understand Alice, the opponent threw Alice. After being thrown down, Alice rolled several times before crashing into the rock next to me.
He was moaning, but it didn’t seem to have any major impact on his life.
“Why?”
I asked, slowly picking up the hilt of her sword. With that level of ability, it wouldn’t have been difficult to kill Alice in an instant.
I didn’t kill him though. Rather, she kindly blew it towards me.
“Is it because of my sister’s consideration?”
It was the same sly tone as before. There was a smile on his face again.
Thinking she was an unknown guy, she tried to pull out the hilt of her sword, but
“But… If you keep going, you won’t see me anymore.”
It was looking at me, but those eyes were looking somewhere else. Looked straight at me
Obviously different. It was not hostility or intent to kill.
As a higher being, it was an order given to the lower ones.
“So… What’s our son complaining about? Did he destroy his sister’s house?”
He started walking towards me slowly, asking again in a kind voice.
“It was a reward for burning my mansion. Why did you burn my mansion down?”
Still not letting go of the sword hilt, he threw a question back at the opponent.
“Huh? The mansion…?”
The opponent seemed to be lost in thought for a moment, then put a finger to his lips and started making a muffled sound.
It may have been a strange idea. It was oddly colorful.
“Ah!”
As if he had just remembered, he walked towards me, clenching his palms loudly.
“If that happens~”
**
Summarize the other person’s explanation.
The red-haired man that the former hero Ian spoke about was the magic swordsman Basteon.
That guy came to fight after discovering the Dragon Lord among the list of strong people I told him about.
It is said that he was beaten from behind.
Until this point, it was said that it wasn’t a big problem for the dragons who lived for eternity.
The important thing was the next story.
All dragons go out to find various entertainment distances in a long time.
Someone was so engrossed in one game that he devoted his whole life to it, and most of them enjoy taking turns in several games.
The red dragon, who introduced himself as Gabija, belonged to the former, and said that he had a passion for reading.
“My sister really hated reading books at first too? But after reading it, it turns out it’s really fun!”
What’s wrong with this dragon’s love of books?
“My sister~ gave me treatment so that I wouldn’t die, right?”
He healed the guy who came to attack him and saved him.
“But you just told me the contents of the book my sister was reading!”
It is said that he spoiled the contents of the book he was reading and ran away.
Yes.
My fault was correct.
I didn’t know that Basteon could be such trash.
‘It was a popular book in its own right, so it must have been a story I picked up while traveling around various regions.’
The book held by the dragon named Gabija was old, but it was a famous novel that everyone did not know about.
I roughly understood the situation. In anger at losing the battle, the dragon spoiled the contents of the book he was reading and ran away.
“But why did you destroy my house?”
Then it was a matter of catching and killing Basteon. However, this dragon burned my house down.
Without even ashes left.
“That…That’s what you mean. Can you say my sister was a bit distracted…?”
“?”
“In the middle of the battle, you keep talking about yourself. You said that you were a teacher, that you were a duke of the empire, and so on.”
“…”
“My sister didn’t do it on purpose…Because I heard that the main character would die.”
Yes. Being spoiled for the fact that the main character dies was an irritating problem.
But there is something important.
“Yeah, but… The main character doesn’t die.”
Alice intervened between me and Gabija, speaking softly.
“Huh?…What!?”
“The main character never dies.”
It was a novel that continued to spread the foreshadowing that the main character would die, from the beginning. In fact, everything was a novel for descriptive tricks and cliche destruction.
It was a story that the main character, who everyone expected would die, did not die. It was clear that Basteon was also aiming for that, and partly spoke differently.
“I…Really?”
Gabiya looked up at me with the look of a savior.
“If it’s a joke… Your sister will be angry.”
“Do whatever you want.”
After confirming with me again. Gabija put on her glasses, from where she had gotten them, and began to open the book she had tucked away in her arms.
Occasionally, I heard several onomatopoeias like consonant, wah, and year, but I thought I wouldn’t mind.
“Young, lord.”
“Why is that?”
“That book was so much fun!”
Alice was laughing at what was good. She looked down at Alice, and her eyes caught her clothes, which seemed to have been soiled when she rolled on her floor earlier.
“Young, lord?”
“Stay still.”
As I started to shake off her clothes, Alice turned her body around in embarrassment. The more she did, the more difficult it was for her to brush, so she grabbed her by the waist.
I could feel the soft texture through the clothes. It wasn’t a body with flab, but it felt soft.
Let’s shake off all the dirt and look around.
Suddenly, Gabiya closed the book and was watching us.
“Is this how you two are related?”
Kiba Ya used both of her hands to make gestures that are hard to describe in words.
“No. Is that why you finished reading the book?”
“I didn’t dare to read the ending, but it’s all thanks to you. You’re a good kid.”
Gabija tried to make her warm, but she didn’t care about that.
“Compensation.”
“hahahaha… I don’t know what you’re talking about, sister?”
“100 Million gold combined with the destroyed mansion and the goods inside it.”
100 Million gold.
To be honest, it was an insane amount. But the opponent is a dragon. Among them, it was the existence that reigned at the pinnacle.
For a dragon with a habit of collecting treasures, 100 million gold was an amount that could easily be raised. If it doesn’t work, you can take it as treasure.
“I’m sorry… Your sister doesn’t have that much money?”
“It doesn’t matter if I receive it as a treasure.”
“My sister doesn’t collect stuff like that… How about rare books instead?”
It was said that dragons basically have a habit of collecting things.
In the original story, the dragons were what Angelica ate when she was bored. What is this guy talking about?
“I heard that there are many treasures in the dragon’s nest.”
“~Originally like that, but my sister doesn’t collect things like that. She distributes them all?”
‘f*ck.’
