“……it’s over.”
“Oh, mother.”
As soon as the Bone Dragon appeared, all of Eileen’s elves lost their will to fight.
The very existence of this dragon was a disaster.
It was flying death, it was despair made concrete.
Kwauuuuuuu-!
The dragon’s roar shook the earth and sky.
The cursed dragon, who was even insulted by death, roared harshly with all his curses and resentment.
-The Demon Dragon Erekis… … Sloth’s pet.
Guillotine repeated the dragon’s name in a low voice.
-Run away, master. There’s no other way now.
“I fought even against fragments of massacre.”
-You can’t compare it to that time! It’s a Bone Dragon. It’s a Bone Dragon that crossed the Chaos Gate!
“Is that skull bowl stronger than the Demon King’s fragments?”
-master!
Guillotine’s voice was urgent.
Caron realized that Guillotine was genuinely concerned.
Charon, he already knew it himself.
What I am saying is that it is nearly impossible to deal with this dragon with your current skills.
The moment you come into contact with the cold breath that guy emits, your entire body will freeze like frostbite.
Just the feeling of dragon piercing from afar was enough to paralyze all the muscles in my body.
“Caron.”
“Move now! Take Adina with you as you go. You must never be caught.”
“You alone… … .”
“Do you think I’m joking? Shut up and run!”
A rough voice came out of Caron’s mouth.
Leo bit his lips as he looked at Charon. After thinking for a moment, he called out Adina’s name loudly, who was looking up at the sky from afar.
“Sister Adina!”
Adina came to her senses at the sound of the magical voice and ran straight to where Charon and Leo were.
“Sister, please take As and go to the teleportation magic circle right away.”
“Brother Leo, are you crazy? I told you to come with me too.”
“Shut up, you little shit. I’m the older brother.”
“……what?”
“Where in the world is there a brother who runs away and leaves his younger brother alone in the grave? I will stay too. If you want to stop me, then kill me right here and now.”
Leo’s expression was determined.
Caron wanted to swear at Leo, but he had no choice but to swallow his curses as soon as he saw Leo’s face.
Leo’s eyes lit up.
His limbs were trembling due to the dragon’s fear, but the determination in his eyes shone brightly.
That wasn’t a face that could be persuaded.
As Leo had said, it seemed impossible to break that will without knocking Leo out.
“under.”
Caron let out a deep sigh. Then he smiled so hard that his teeth were bared.
“If I go back to Cheonghae Castle, I’ll probably get beaten up by my brother’s parents.”
“So what? If I die here, I won’t get in trouble anyway.”
“I’m not dying.”
“Your expression doesn’t look like that at all?”
“Brother, just get out of here while I’m talking nicely! Why are you being so selfish?”
“Should I just do it?”
“I admit that.”
Now was not the time to try to persuade him.
Charon lightly grabbed the guillotine and fired it at Leo.
“If I die here, won’t you blame me?”
“You said you weren’t going to die.”
“That’s my story! Yours is different!”
Leo followed Charon and held his beloved sword, Sylphid, tightly in his hand. He continued speaking while looking at the Bone Dragon flying towards him from afar.
“You know that time you fainted in the palace? Do you know how I felt then? I felt helpless, resentful of my weakness, and just wanted to bite my tongue and die.”
The stupid cousin told his story indifferently.
“Caron Reston, I am also a member of the Reston Dukedom. I cannot stand back in the face of monsters with dark magic. This is my life, you son of a bitch.”
“How foolish. How can that personality not change?”
“People die when they change. I don’t want to die yet.”
“A guy who doesn’t want to die will stay even after seeing the Bone Dragon… … Ugh. Let’s stop talking.”
Although he said that, Caron was secretly impressed by Leo.
Leo seemed to have already decided which path he would take.
chivalry.
People call it chivalry.
‘I told you, you’ve really grown a lot.’
It is something you choose for yourself.
So, you just have to take responsibility for yourself.
Charon nodded slightly, then looked at Adina and As before.
“Even if both of you run away.”
Then Asgard stepped forward and said.
“You have to stay here.”
“… … As, if you fall into the hands of the Demon King of Sloth… … .”
“That won’t happen, brother.”
Asu’s eyes shone mysteriously.
Caron met her gaze for a moment in silence, then sighed and said.
“How come I only have these guys by my side? Aren’t you going to escape too, Adina?”
“How many clans get the chance to fight the Bone Dragon? If you just go back, you can drink alcohol for the rest of your life. You can’t miss out on that opportunity.”
“Okay, just do whatever you want. It’s a pain to persuade anyone. Instead, just remember one thing. If you want to live, don’t go outside these walls.”
Kwauuuuuuu-!
A huge amount of black magic was condensed at the mouth of the bone dragon that was flying in from afar.
A precursor to breath.
The elves who saw that sight shouted in unison.
“Activate the great magic barrier!”
“Use all remaining magic stones!”
Woof woof woof woof-!
A huge magic barrier was created around Eileen’s walls.
Charon spoke to Leo as he released the magical power of the core all at once.
“Brother, you should get involved quickly.”
“I was preparing even if you didn’t say anything.”
The Sea of Charon spread around the party, and the Sea of Leo covered it.
-… … Shoot!
Kwaaaaaaaaaaah-!
The black magic that had been condensed from the mouth of the Bone Dragon, Erekis, poured out all at once.
An ice breath that froze everything was fired towards Eileen, and in the blink of an eye, it collided with the barrier.
Kwaaaaaaaaaaahh …
Tsk tsk tsk.
Even the magic barrier that Eileen boasted about couldn’t completely block Erekis’ breath.
The barrier was badly crumpled, and a terrible cold air seeped in through the gap.
Kuuuuung.
Some of the breath directly hit Eileen’s high-rise buildings.
Black magic covered the city’s skies, bringing an untimely night to the place.
“Ugh.”
Charon, who was along the wall, also received a considerable shock.
The aftereffects of the breath caused the magical power channels throughout his body to flip over and cause magical power to flow backwards.
“Guillotine.”
-okay.
However, Charon quickly regained control of the magic passage with the help of Guillotine.
And then he immediately looked up at the sky and raised the corners of his mouth.
The bone dragon was circling the skies of Eileen, seemingly buying time to recharge its breath.
Caron had no intention of giving the guy any time.
“Elder!”
As Caron shouted loudly, the voice of Elder Balto soon rang in Caron’s ears.
-Speak. I’m listening.
“Are you feeling well?”
-… … Fortunately, it’s bearable. However, if the next breath is fired, Eileen will be destroyed. How about escaping with As-nim right now?
“I have one request. Could you fly me into the body of that bone dragon?”
Balto sighed at Charon’s words. Then he spoke in a low voice.
-Do you see the magic turret to the northwest from your perspective?
“yes.”
-I’ll activate it right now, so go straight into the turret. Be careful, because you only have enough magic power to do this once.
“Once is enough.”
-What are you thinking?
“Breath should not be used.”
This dragon fires its breath using black magic.
What this means is that if you absorb all the black magic power that would fire your breath, you will no longer be able to fire your breath.
Charon licked his lips as he looked at the bone dragon, Erekis.
A crisis is an opportunity.
Especially in situations like this.
How many times in your life will you meet someone with such an abundance of dark magic?
“It’s time to feast, guillotine.”
-Are you saying you’re willing to risk your life eating that dangerous thing?
“Isn’t it a gamble worth taking?”
-That crazy guy.
It’s a flying dark magic storage.
If I could just suck out the black magic within me, I could shorten the path to level 8.
“At best, what more can you do than die, Brother Leo? Stay here with Aslan and Adina. It’ll be over soon anyway.”
If the Bone Dragon cannot be neutralized, everyone dies.
Charon quickly ran forward before the group could respond.
The moment that will decide this battle has arrived.
4.
The power of the magic turret was certain.
-Concentrate.
“I know, you damn bastard!”
The shell called Charon was successfully launched towards the bone dragon.
Woooooooooo-!
As I released the magic power through my feet, I gained speed in an instant.
A speed that blurs your vision.
Charon willingly took on the speed and concentrated all his mind, because if he was even slightly distracted, he would not be able to reach the Bone Dragon’s body.
Very fine tuning followed, and the effort paid off with satisfactory results.
Kwajijijik.
Charon landed successfully, thrusting the guillotine into the Bone Dragon’s chest.
Wheeeeeeeeing-!
The wind was blowing so hard that it was difficult to even take a step due to the Bone Dragon’s incredible flight speed.
“It’s cool.”
Charon easily regained his balance, breathing the magic of clarity into his legs. Then he slowly stepped forward.
Crackle.
A bone without a single bit of flesh left.
A strong black magic could be felt from Erekis’s entire body. Every time Charon took a step on the bones, thick black magic rippled from the bones like tentacles.
“Guillotine, if possible, track down this guy’s Dragon Heart… … .”
It was at that moment that Caron was about to give orders to Guillotine.
-… … Rael? Is it Rael?
Someone’s voice rang in Caron’s ears.
-… … My old friend, you have finally come to give me… … rest.
It wasn’t the voice of sloth.
Charon could easily tell that the owner of this voice was Erekis.
– Those were terrible times. I’ve even forgotten how much time has passed. Have you finally come to keep your promise?
An unknown story echoed in Caron’s ears.
Although it was not certain, it was clear that this bone dragon called Erekis was mistaken about something.
‘Guillotine, what does this all mean?’
-It would be too long to explain. I think Erekis was… …one of Rael’s karmas.
Crackle, crackle.
One by one, skeleton-shaped undead began to rise from the giant bones.
On the outside, they looked like ordinary skeletons.
But I could sense a terrifyingly thick dark magic coming from those guys.
It was no exaggeration to call him a Death Knight.
Charon could easily guess the identity of those skeletons.
There was something about those guys written in an old book I read in the family library one day.
A soldier born from the dragon’s teeth, the Dragon Tooth Soldier.
It was a power that could not be compared to that of lower-level undead.
The total number of dragon teeth that appeared was twelve.
The Dragon Tooth Soldiers all aimed their weapons at Charon. The endless hatred they were spewing out began to oppress Charon’s entire body.
Through that gap of hatred, Erekis’ voice echoed once again.
-My dragon heart is hidden under my nose. Lael, please take pity on me, who has become a plaything of sloth. Please grant me rest.
At those words, Caron nodded as if he was glad. Then he answered with a smile.
“I’m not the founder… … but don’t worry. Smashing things is my specialty.”
There was no need to overthink things any more.
So Charon smiled brightly and took hold of the guillotine.
“Actually, I don’t like thinking. If you’re feeling well, your head won’t have to work as hard, right?”
-That’s a boast, you stupid master.
“Let’s get started.”
Kwaaaaaaaaaaah-!
Dozens of waves began to surge from Charon’s body.
A fight with no chance of winning.
But the mad dog willingly accepted the fight.
There’s a mad dog living in the duke’s house
