Judas, who was the only one in the group who remained tenacious when he saw the frightening sight of the lake boiling like lava, approached the lake with no foresight.

“... Judas! ”

It was the moment when Nolan Edan moved to stop him.

Faat

A blue wolf appears scattering bubbles in the air, spraying down on a boiling lake.

As the gracefully extended leg sleeps, the wavelengths are rounded and the blue energy spreads throughout the lake.

Then the lake water, which had boiled fiercely, became debilitating at the time of shoveling.

It was beautiful and mysterious to be impressed by those who watched.

Edan stares calmly at Judas' spirit as he attempts to run away.

The king of standing water stepped over a tranquil lake and looked inside with his eyes like a glass egg.

Blue Wyvern.

Looney sees a giant being bending deep into the lake in a single sigh.

Wyvern was a monster that resembled a dragon, but showed a big difference in its abilities.

First of all, Wyvern was far less intelligent than humans, compared to the dragon that had higher intelligence than all living creatures.

It is driven by instinct rather than reason without knowing the language.

So, of course, the prophecy could not be used and I didn't know how to do magic that required complex formulas.

However, it was not a lower monster that could be seen anywhere.

Compared to a dragon, the strength of a Wyvern was not enough to overcome even though he was trained.

Generally, they lived in groups and were divided into several attributes.

Wyvern has strong scales that can't penetrate bombs and the power to slash the ground, plus attribute-specific unique abilities, including Bresse.

Blue Wyvern is a number attribute.

It lives only where there is water and has a characteristic that likes warm temperatures, moving its habitat like a migratory bird.

It does not produce water like spirits or handle it as free material, but it was possible to block the waterway as it is now.

Of course, it felt like a handicraft expert was watching a child who had just learned origami.

As Rooney adjusted the boiling water and returned to the cold winter lake, the furious Bluewyvern rose out of the water.

Argh!

The whole mountain shook like an earthquake.

The blueweburn protruding from the lake was larger than the Platanus tree in body.

Sharp horns and thorns wriggle over the blue-eyed scales.

The tail was twice as long as the trunk, but if you killed a long tail, you could hang the lake a lap.

As he unfolds his two huge wings, a biting wind rises up around him.

“A real dragon……! ”

Sage muttered in a trembling voice.

Cole, who was watching together, shook his head.

“Huh, they look alike, but they're not. It's probably the size or the look. ”

“Maybe what? ”

As he blurred his end, Baikal rushed in.

“I wonder if it's Wyvern. ”

“Wyvern?”

“By the way, Shin Dragon was a monster that grew up well after eating food. ”

Baikal thumps his shoulders with a staff.

Even if not as much as a dragon, it was not negligible because it was the same dragon monster.

After understanding the situation roughly, they each approached Judas' side, fixing their weapons and grabbing them.

“…… Jairr. ”

Wyvern opens his mouth and shears his teeth as tight as a saw blade.

He was very angry with the unhappy visitors who came during the planting.

After stirring his long tail, Wyvern starts to grumble like a vomit.

Recognizing the unusual movement, Cole summons the Spirit of Fire to defend himself.

At the same time, Wyvern opened his mouth and sprayed a brass.

The fire whirled and vomited in a straight line.

Wyvern's Bresse was a form of discharge of the firearm in his body.

It was mostly Wyvern's model, which is described in fairy tales as' Fire Dragon ’and‘ Evil Dragon Defeated by Knights’.

The fire that Wyvern emitted was blocked by Cole's spirit and soared like a fountain into the air.

I tried to stop it, but the heat softened my surroundings.

A red shadow appeared on the group's face as if they were watching fireworks close by.

“Yaaaaah!"

Wyvern, who failed to burn the intruder, began to pour out his attacks in fury.

The lake overflows like waves, and the broken trees fall on the bottom of the Urr.

Wyvern's tail, which swept around, flew towards Judas this time.

Edan pulls out his sword and strikes his tail.

I hit my sword and tail with a blunt sound.

“ ……! ”

I accepted it solely by force, but the sword could not bear it and trembled.

If it wasn't for Edan's sword that he was holding, it would have been shattered.

Edan looks down and causes a red error.

“Baikal, support. ”

“You don't have to give me that much! ”

At the end of Baikal's staff was a grumbling, star-like magic particle gathering.

Along with the starter, there were seven arrows shining in the air.

Edan snaps at Wyvern's tail as he flies again.

Unlike a little while ago, I was able to absorb the black shock that had hit me, but I managed to make a long scratch on a hard scale.

The moment Nolan Wyvern bites his tail, Baikal's support fire continues.

Arrows made of magical power were thrown into Wyvern in unison.

The scales were so hard that they could not take a big hit, but the tail that was swinging by the horse's handle fluttered.

At least he didn't try to get out of the water.

At a distance, he spurts a breeze and only swings his tail when it approaches him to attack him, but does not continue to leave the lake.

It was the moment when Edan, who knew Wyvern's attack pattern, tried to retrieve the sword and strike it properly.

“Wait, Edan. ”

“…… Yes. ”

Judas, who gently restrained him, called Rooney.

“I think we're angry that we came to my home. Let's calm him down.”

"I understand."

The blue wolf, which was still standing still on the lake, rolled its feet lightly.

Then something amazing happened.

Come on, come on!

The moisture coagulated and a frozen sound echoed.

In the blink of an eye, the entire new lake froze and turned into a huge chunk of ice.

In the middle of it was a Wyvern that was as stuffed as a statue.

From under the bridge, Wyvern, who was completely buried in the ice and unable to budge, stumbled and fell.

The fallen Wyvern wept like a puppy weeping in panic when his body did not move as he intended.

When Wyvern's movement was sealed, Judas walked slowly over a frozen lake.

Wyvern, who was squawking, glanced at him with a flash of magenta eyeballs.

“Jarr!”

The moment he uncovered his teeth, Looney lowered Wyvern's head to his front foot.

The blue wolf's snout caught a rough wrinkle.

How dare you brag to someone.

“... Argh. ”

Wyvern wept with his nose, pressed by the breath of the Water Spirit King.

Judas, who heard a lamentable cry, asked.

“Yes, why is Wyvern weeping alone in a lake like this? ”

“Phuhung.”

Wyvern looks at Rooney with a white snot.

Rooney, the King of Water's Spirit, was able to read Wyvern's memories approximately because it was also possible to take a peek at the inner world of the creature.

"I heard you fell during the group movement.

"Greg, he's just a kid.

Uni circled over Wyvern.

As Wyvern is a dragon family, its average life span has been very long, about 400 years, unless special threats are posed.

and spent about 100 years growing.

Blue Wyvern, who now lives in the lake, was a young Wyvern preparing to become an adult just after the growing season.

By the time I just broke an egg, the season had changed and habitat movement had begun. It looks like Mother Wyvern missed it by mistake while passing through this lake. When I was too young, I couldn't learn to fly away from the lake because I couldn't even learn to fly away from the herd.

"Freeze? Why didn't the dropped mother come to you?

It was Carney who answered Tony's question.

People who live in herds often don't take care of dropouts. There's no exception to being his own cub.

"Uwaang, you're more charming than Uni!

…… This is real. Why am I tripping on my back?

Tony looks at the prickly eye and turns his head, pretending he doesn't know.

Judas, who was listening to the stories of the spirits, swept Wyvern's throat.

“You must have been hungry. ”

“ ……. ”

Blue Wyvern's marble-like orange eyes turn toward Judas.

He doesn't intend to rebel anymore, but falls quietly.

It was a big, scary monster for people to see, but it was actually small in size after Wyvern's growth.

Bluewyvern originally absorbs water as an energy source.

If not enough water is given, the temperament becomes ferocious and the carnivore begins to eat.

However, this newborn Wyvern fell into the lake and was picked up by nearby villagers as a Shin Dragon.

Initially, they absorbed the water flowing through the mountains, but as the water began to dry up, people offered sacrifices because Shin Dragon was angry.

Having filled their bellies with meat that they brought as offerings, Wyvern began to wait for meat instead of being completely tamed and absorbing water.

It was tamed by people like lions raised in zoos.

However, the amount of meat Wyvern was able to eat was not long ago, and he had a growing season and was getting bigger and bigger.

[So, you're saying that you were doing it in the end?

…… Probably.

This Blue Wyvern was always hungry.

Others waited quietly until they brought their food, but now that they had grown up, it was hard to endure hunger.

He absorbed the water as he felt sorry for it, and soothed his hunger. The water began to dry up in the mountains, and he was swarming with water for food because he was short of water.

A group heard from Judas and held a meeting around the stretched axis of Wyvern.

“I heard that if you go down the road here, you get off the coast. Why not send them to the sea? ”

“…… I know how far down the road I have to go. It takes more than three days on horseback. ”

“Well, it's also a matter of how you can't fly. Can Wyvern walk to the coast? ”

Baikal, Edan and Sage gave and received words, but they could not be sharp.

Cole added a word here.

“If they go to sea, the problem won't be solved. He's been feeding on human food for over a hundred years, and he only grew up in the lake, and he wonders if he can adapt to it alone. ”

“……. ”

I heard the sound of suffering.

That said, it only adversely affected Wyvern and the inhabitants of the mountains.
