Continuity is the Father of Magical Power

Episode Eight: To beat the grantor.

"I wonder if I can go home alive..."

Currently, in the Mountains of Death, in a cave...... I was in the middle of the Red Dragon's nest.

I was surrounded by dragons, we didn't speak to each other, and I resented the Demon King in the silent tension of not being able to move a step.

Minutes ago

"What? How to beat a grantor?

After listening to the history of the reincarnators, I immediately cried to the Demon King to tell him about the Grantor.

'Cause after all those reincarnators ask me how awesome they are, then I'm going to work hard with them to win! It won't be.

"You know about the grantor, don't you? Whatever you want, just tell me!

"Huh? Wouldn't it be boring if I found out about that?

Boring? What are you talking about? This guy!

"Because I'm not thinking of having fun! It's easy to win, but you've never been over it, have you? Unlike the Demon King, if I lose, I die, right?

I grabbed the Demon King's shoulder and desperately appealed to him about common sense.

"Oh, oh... right. I don't care if you die, I'll give you some advice."

The Demon King was pushed by my sword curtain and seemed willing to give advice just because he had no choice.

But this was a mistake.

"Yay ~!!"

"In the meantime, hunt as many dragons as you can. We'll talk about it later."

"Huh?"

"Don't worry. If you take him down somewhat, I'll bring him back."

The moment I heard such a voice, I was in a dragon's nest.

The dragons suddenly appeared to me. I'm surprised, but there were dozens of them in a hurry to surround me. The dragons stood up.

And we asked each other how things were, and we were in the silent air.

Probably, if I move even a few millimeters, the dragons will strike at the same time.

The dragons made me feel so nervous.

From the dragons, I don't feel any signs, and they think it's the dangerous one that's been entering the middle of the nest.

Being vigilant is highly intelligent proof... but all I can say is that being that vigilant to me is stupid.

'Cause in this situation, I don't have the means to do you guys damage.

You can't fight the Red Dragons, covered in scales that perfectly invalidate the attack, on the ground where you can't see their weaknesses.

Damn......... Demon King, I resent you.

I asked how to beat the grantor...

Hmm? No, from the Demon King, you're saying that if you want to beat the Grantor, you can afford to take him down as much as a bunch of dragons?

Sure, Lou came across the Mountains of Death, and from the reborns, he might have to easily defeat a herd of dragons.

I see... this is a message from the Demon King: 'Before you ask for help from people, build your strength'.

All right, if you decide to, I'll destroy this herd of dragons on my own!

...... it's good to try to be intentional, but how do we break through from this situation where we can't move a single step?

If you can, I'd ask the dragons to fly high, but that's hard when it's this cave.

So we need to figure out a way to attack the dragons from below, even in this cave.

From under the dragon...

"Oh, I know..."

The moment I found a way to open it and was delighted to speak out unexpectedly, an intensive attack from the dragons began.

"Ya, I did it... well, I was already going to move anyway, okay"

I was a little off the top of the dragon's head and succeeded in avoiding a concentrated attack.

Katsung! Katsung!

"Yeah, I knew the blade wouldn't go through"

While the dragons were looking for me, I stuck my sword in the head of the dragon to make sure the scales were absolutely defensive again.

And...

"It would be magic if this happened!

The moment the head-butted dragon bent his neck and tried to look back, I grew a rock toge to penetrate the dragon's neck off the ground.

"Okay, that's a success. I can do this."

I made sure the rock toge was pushing through the dragon's neck, and I kept growing more rock togues as I ran around on the dragon.

"All right, the dragons are confused, and the numbers are steadily decreasing. If we keep this up, Rakushi..."

In an attempt to say that it's an easy win, from behind, I said, 'Bakin!' Something broke.

Looking back, there was a dragon that was a turn bigger and more scratchy than the other dragons, breaking the rock toge with his forelegs.

"There's a guy out there who looks like the boss of the herd..."

Yeah, let's just leave him alone and get rid of the normal dragons around.

I decided to ignore the boss.

Even if you fight the boss, you're in the way.

But life isn't going to be so easy...

"Whoops!

As I ignored the boss and continued my dragon hunt, the boss flew towards me.

I could have managed to avoid it, but my whole body would have been shattered by the boss's head poking if I had delayed the reaction a little more......

I shuddered thinking about when the boss hit me, looking at the walls of a cave with his head poked and a hole in it.

"Yeah, let's just take down the other dragons"

I've got twenty more bodies before the boss comes back to the nest. I made a series of dirt magic attempts to defeat the dragon.

And he succeeded in annihilating a dragon other than the boss in a couple of minutes until the boss returned.

"Grrrrrrrr!!

The boss dragon saw his fallen companions and raised a loud roar.

Yeah, my chest is hurting so bad for what I've done, but let's not think about it now.

"I'm not asking you to forgive me. But I'm not wasting your material."

That's what I said, boss. I moved right under the dragon and stuck two swords in my neck.

If it was a difficult but big dragon in other dragons, when I stood, I could do this because of the large gap down there.

Surprisingly, the boss dragon was easier.

If you think so...

"Guha!"

I was stuck in the wall when I found out.

Probably just for a little while, but I was losing my mind.

"K... my body doesn't move. Boss, where's the dragon?

Forced to move his neck and look for the boss, quite a bit ahead of me, a large dragon with two swords stabbed in his neck was falling down as hard as he could.

Apparently... just before he died, he shook his last force and attacked me.

I was relieved just to stab my sword in the neck.

It was dangerous... Seriously, it would have been dangerous if I didn't have the regeneration skills.

Truth is, I need to fix my alarming habits.

"Ugh, come on."

The injury was completely healed and I escaped the penetrating wall.

Jumping, flexing, making sure my body was back, I started moving to start collecting dragons.

"Nevertheless, how long is the Demon King going to keep me here?

"No, that's enough."

"Ugh!

When I realized, I was back inside the Demon King's house where I was until about an hour ago.

Demon King's space magic.

"Tired. I didn't expect you to defeat even the Lord. It's good to see you grow up."

What's the Lord? Huh? Could it have been unexpected for the Demon King that that big dragon came out!?

"What was good! You could have died if you took one more wrong step!?

Don't be ridiculous! Faster than that, Bell was seriously pissed that he was watching my battle using dungeon cores with the Demon King.

"So sorry. Recently, there have been more dragons without him, so as I gathered the material, I was going to ask Leo to reduce the number."

Huh? Was I flown into a dragon's nest for such a reason as to exterminate a vermin?

Weren't you trying to get me to focus?

"That's not what I thought the Millennial Lord was waking up to. Besides, you didn't die, okay?

What's a millennium? Well, I knew it was unexpected!

"Bullshit." Not good at all!

I said, "Don't be ridiculous! 'I tried to complain to the Demon King, and I was angry so that Bell could wear it again.

Until a few hours ago, I had no idea you were afraid of the Demon King.

Either that or the Demon King is more distracted by Bell.

"Dear Leo... I'm glad you're safe"

Ignoring the Demon King's apology, "I'm sorry," Bell hugged me in tears.

Well, I guess that's all I was worried about...

I'm not sure I can protect you if I piss off the Demon King, so why don't we stop being rude about it any more?

"I left the dragon carcass in your bag. Use it to create a dungeon, a powerful weapon."

When I was stroking Bell's head, the Demon King said that.

As the Demon King said rushing to check in the bag, there were many bodies of dragons in it.

"Oh, thanks...... what do you do by building a dungeon? Well, I can't make a dungeon in the first place, can I?

You still don't have enough levels, do you?

"Hmm? You weren't aware? You should be able to build it by now. And you can do anything you want by building a dungeon. In other words, it's your own world. I use a lot of magic, and a normal dungeon doesn't make sense, but I can make sure people come back to life even if a monster kills them in a dungeon."

Does that mean you can train for combat without worrying about dying?

"Sure, that sounds awesome. I'll make it as soon as I get home."

"You should. And then… finally, advice in the fight against the Grantor, the battle will be a division between the strength of the soldiers and the quality of the weapons"

Oh, that's what I've been waiting for your advice!

Well, I figured it would be a showdown on weapons rather than a direct showdown, on how much reinforcement the soldiers could have been.

"Thanks! I won't waste that advice"

"Ooh, come on. Come see me again."

"Okay. See you later!"

I waved to the Demon King and moved toward the house.

Today's harvest was more than expected.

It was a lot unexpected, but generally satisfactory?
