Episode 88: Dragon Nation and Dragon Killer
"That's why I came. This is Dragon Knight Dragonia."
For your training, Gyro, we came to Dragonia, a country called Dragon Holy Land.
"This is Dragonia... surprisingly normal country"
That's what Mr. Norb said.
Indeed, at first glance, Dragonia is a normal country.
But Dragonia has characteristics that no other country has.
It's a mountain range that stands like a needle mountain, which looks good from this place along the far frontier.
"Dragonia is characterized by the dragon peak lone ride you see over there. There are so many dragons living there called Dragon Holy Land. And that's where we train."
"You really fight dragons..."
Mr. Liliera stares at Ronride with a distant eye.
"It's okay, the majority of the time around the peak is around the green dragon, so it's around the blue dragon."
"That's not normal anymore..."
No, no, it's like a flying lizard if it's about green or blue.
"Dragon Peak is where we live for the Dragons, but it means something else to the Dragon Knights."
"In a different way?
"Yes, the Dragon Knights fight the Dragon one-on-one that they thought this would be in that mountain range, and by winning brilliantly, they can gain the right to ride the Dragon. That's how dragon picking works to become a dragon knight."
And because it is a land related to dragons, I decided to talk about Dragon Knight in my spare time until I reached my destination.
"The Dragon Knight before performing the ritual is an apprenticeship, no matter how strong he is. You will be allowed to name the Dragon Knight for the first time after a successful dragon selection ceremony."
"So your brother, who can beat the dragon with ease, is also a dragon knight?
And, Gyro, you've run into simple questions.
"That's a good question. But unfortunately, I'm not a dragon knight. To become a Dragon Knight, they have to perform rituals that have been kept secret between the Dragon Knights for generations."
Yeah, it was me who taught Dragon Emperor Liu Emperor Sky Art from a dragon knight I knew, but he couldn't tell me about the ritual until the end.
You're a hero, so they say you don't have to be a dragon knight.
"Well, there's something your brother doesn't even know."
"I mean, what a fairy tale a dragon knight is, so you don't know it for granted, do you? Instead, I know so much about Lex."
"Uh, well. I had a bad feeling about it."
And Mr. Mina despises you, Gyro.
Well, someone else told me that before, but what do you mean, the Dragon Knight is a fairy tale?
"Well, I'm a little uncomfortable riding, but if you get on top of your head and force it to fly towards your destination, you don't have to be a dragon knight to get on the dragon."
"" "" "No, I'm not saying it's on" ""
Everyone denied it for some reason, didn't they?
It's a good way for people who can't use flying magic to go far and high.
◆
After crossing the border, we came to the town of Tatsutron, closest to Longfeng Longride.
"There you are! Land Lizard Dragon Grill!
"There's also a bracelet grill of fried snakes!
Along with the prestigious call from the stall, the fragrant smell comes to stimulate my stomach.
"Oh, it's a busy town"
"Yeah, no one's scared even though the dragon's close to where he lives"
To your sentiments, Gyro, Mr. Megli speaks out in agreement.
"Right. Why are the people in town so calm when the dragon dwellings are so close?
Looks like Mr. Norb had the same doubts as Mr. Megli.
The two are right, the people in the town of Tatstron don't care about anyone, despite the proximity of Lonride.
"Well, that's because you don't have to worry about the dragons attacking you, brothers."
And it was the uncle of the stall owner who was right next to me who answered Mr. Norb's questions.
"What does that mean?
……
In response to Mr. Norb's question, the shop owner's uncle points to a skewer lined up in a stall.
Is that what happened?
"Uncle, 6 skewers please"
"Hey, Maido! Buy 6 Dragon Grilled Land Lizards!
"Gyuuuuuuu!!"
Oops, I forgot Moffmoff's share.
"Sorry, one more extra bottle"
When we bought the skewer, my uncle started talking about the situation like a better built door.
"A dragon is basically a highly territorial creature. So basically, I rarely leave Dragon Peak."
Yeah, because dragons are creatures that value territory more than they are animals, too.
"And behind Dragon Peak, there's a leader who can follow all the dragons that live on the peak. Dimensions say if you do something on the boss's lap, it's gonna be a big deal."
Any creature has more rules than they live in a herd.
That's why dragons are the same.
And this Land Lizard dragon grill is delicious.
It looks like a fancy grilled meat, but unlike just a salt grill, the sauce is sweet and soggy and delicious.
Um, I think I'll buy another bottle.
"Old man, give me another bottle!
"Me too."
"Cu!!"
"Hei Mai Do!
Or so I thought, Gyro, you and Mr. Megli were ordering a replacement.
Yeah, I'll ask for it, too.
Who's going to pay for the more Moffmoff?
Huh? Pet meals are the duty of the owner? Yes, that's right.
"Well, for that reason, if you're not a haggler with a rough temper, you're not coming to town. I was wondering if one of those hagglers would show up every few decades."
"So what if that haggle shows up? A rumored dragon knight knocks you down?
and gyro asks the uncle of the store owner a question as you twist the third skewer.
"Dragon Knight? Wahaha, you shouldn't be joking, brother. The Dragon Knight is a fairy tale of a kid!
Then the store owner's uncle laughed out loud and denied Gyro-kun's doubts.
Um, and what does this uncle mean about fairytales about dragon knights?
"Huh? You don't have a dragon knight?
"Uh, well, there's the Dragon Knights as the Knights who defend the King's Capital, but that's a normal knight with only a name. Let's hope so. No, but you can't fight the dragons one-on-one in the first place and make them obey."
……
Silently, Liliera and the others have been staring at me, but it was normal for me in my previous life...
"Um, so what about the Golden Dragon that the Dragon Knight King rides? The most powerful dragon with wisdom is said to live for thousands of years."
"That's the legend. Rumor has it that the boss of Dragon Peak is the legendary Golden Dragon, but nobody saw him. There's no way you don't want to go into a dragon's nest in the first place!
……
Liliera and the others have stared silently at me again.
But in my last life, there were usually mountains of people walking into Dragon Peak and knocking down dragons.
That's enough to limit hunting so that the dragons don't dwindle too much.
Um, the Dragon Knight is just a knight, and has anyone seen the Golden Dragon?
What happened to this country while I was dead?
"Well, have you ever heard of the Dragon Emperor's Emperor?
"Hmm? Oh, you mean the spear moves used by dragon knights in fairytales. Well, sometimes you call yourself Dragon Emperor Liu, but it's all fake monsters."
Hmm, what's going on with you treating me like a fairy tale until the Dragon Emperor's Emperor Sky Mastery?
Could both the Dragon Knight and the Dragon Emperor Liu Emperor Emperor have perished in this day and age?
No, no, there's no way those people are going to die or anything.
"Hey, what's that?
and then someone pointed to the other side of the sky with those words.
"What's going on?
The people around him also look in the direction he pointed.
"... what the hell?
Many people turned their gaze across the sky, in the direction of Dragon Peak, so that they could be caught.
The first thing I saw was a little green figure floating in the blue sky.
But that makes it look bigger all the time.
No, I'm not, I'm getting closer to this one at a fierce speed.
The whole town squirms out loud.
"Oh, is that... no way!?"
Things that were green dots at first were already approaching town quite a distance away.
And if we get that close, it's obvious to everyone who it is.
"... it's a dragon"
The word was a signal.
Screaming from all over town and people running to Kamako.
People heading for the town exit, people fleeing into the buildings they see.
You have your own house in that direction, that dragon, that green dragon that's not even very strong because it's green. Some people ran in the direction of Soytz coming.
"Though, it's a mess..."
The Knights Defending the Town are raising their voices to calm the people of the town who panicked, but not very much, but are unlikely to make it by the time the Green Dragon arrives.
No matter how many green dragons your opponent is weak, it's a sufficient threat to the townspeople who don't have the power to fight.
"Oh, could that be the case?
Maybe the Knights of this town can defeat the Green Dragon that's on its way?
Isn't that why you're letting people in town evacuate people who obviously don't seem used to it?
Normally at times like this, you make loud noises around burn and loud magic to calm them down.
Cheng Cheng, I'm sure this is also a hands-on training for newcomers.
I guess a skilled knight is going to cover you if you have to.
Don't worry about that.
"Besides, it doesn't look like they're the only ones with dragons. Till just now, it was small and hard to see, but there's a bunch of Wyburns following me back there."
Yeah, Wyburn is a subspecies of dragons, but I rarely use Wyburn as a subordinate per green dragon.
"Mr. Rex!
And in the meantime, Liliera speaks to me.
It's not just Mr. Liliera, Gyro. You guys are staring at me, too.
"As it is, the town will be attacked by dragons. We have to do something!
"That's right, brother! Let's beat the dragon lightly!
Apparently, Liliera and the others are going to fight to protect the town.
Hmm, I think the Knights will protect the town even if I leave it alone...
"Mr. Gyro, that's so easy..."
"What are you talking about, Norb! We have a brother!
Mr. Norb shows a weak attitude, but you look easy, Gyro.
Yeah, if you think about it, this could be just the right opportunity.
"All right, let's all protect this town!
"Yes!"
"Sasa but brother! That's what we gotta do!
"Ha, you can't help it."
"Well, but there's Rex."
"Right. Mr. Rex is here."
The two are motivated, so put up your weapons and get ready for battle, as Mina and the others gave up.
Yeah, yeah, it's good we're all motivated.
"Yeah, shall we intercept that flock of green dragons and Wyburns then? Though I will not fight."
"All right, brother! I'll take care of the miscellaneous fish!
"Yeah, we need Mr. Rex's support... Huh?
What did Mr. Liliera and the others say now? He just looks at me in the face. [M]
"I won't fight, so let's all do our best to take it down."
So I told everyone. [M]
I have to fight.
Yes, for everyone's training!
"" "" "Ha, ha!?" ""
◆
"Hey!? Are you serious, brother!?"
Everyone is surprised at my declaration of not fighting. [M]
"Yeah, seriously, I'm not in this fight. You're the only ones who can take it down."
"But they're dragons and wieburns! We can't win this alone!
I scream that Mr. Mina can't, but I don't think so.
"It's okay, we've all worked so hard on our training, haven't we? Not as many things as Wyburn. And Mr. Liliera."
"Huh? Me?
"Yeah, I want Mr. Liliera to take down that green dragon by herself"
"... what?
Mr. Liliera looks at me with a frightened face. [M]
"It's okay, I'll protect the people in town. Focus on defeating your enemies."
It's just hard to fight the first dragon exorcism while caring about what's around you.
I'll be there for you.
"Hey, are you serious, Mr. Rex?
"Yeah, I mean it. Just right for everyone's training, right?
"Training..."
I originally came to this country to train for everyone.
Well, that's a little bit of an appointment.
'Cause my first plan was to start training at Dragon Peak!
"Come on, Gyro, you guys get Wyburn's opponent! Not a big enemy, but be careful with the numbers!
"Way to go, brother!
On my instructions, Gyro, you're moving out.
"I mean, Wyburn is a B-rank demon!?"
"It's okay, it's okay. Everybody can take them down."
Mina is worrying.
◆
"Damn, you're going to have to!
When Liliera, who is ready, activates the Ice Attribute Enhancement to thin and freeze the surrounding ground, she messes up the Green Dragon as she glides magnificently with the Ice Blade that grew over it on the back of her feet.
As Liliera glides over the ice, the ice at her feet shreds from each other, causing sparkling and ice shards to dance around her.
"Beautiful..."
One of the women watching the sight accidentally leaks her voice.
"GAOOOOOOOOO!!"
The Green Dragon can't go with Mr. Liliera's speed moving around endlessly at high speeds and just gets flirted with.
"Ha!!"
Mr. Liliera, on the other hand, pokes a gap in the green dragon to accurately strike.
Spears made from blade-wolf materials cut green dragon scales easily.
"Gwwwwwww!!"
That's when the Green Dragon, which was under attack to keep standing, raises the roar of anger.
And a high density of magic swells up my throat.
"Careful, everybody! The Green Dragon will throw up your braces!
"" "" Breath!? ""
It was the people of the town, not the Liliera, who reacted more sensitively to my words.
Whoa, we have to protect them from the braces.
"Breathguard!!"
I protect the people of town with magic that specializes in braces. [M]
Immediately after that, the Green Dragon threw up a brace.
High-density magic masses strike residents as they melt the ground.
"Hih!?"
people in the town screaming, circling themselves and nodding.
"It's all right now."
I called out to the frightened. [M]
"Huh?"
People raise their faces to the fact that even though they thought they couldn't do it anymore, the ruin that burns them all down will never strike them.
And I looked at the sight in front of me and circled my eyes.
"Hey, what's this?!?"
What the people of the town saw was the sight of the dragon brace stopping in front of them as if they were being held back by the wall and drifting straight up.
"This is a magic, brace guard for anti-dragon braces. The braces of the lower dragons are easily prevented by this magic."
"Or is it easy... it's a dragon?
"Yeah, but it's a green dragon."
"" "" Hey!? ""
That? Why are they all surprised? If you're a dragon with a lot of dragons, I think a brace guard for braces is basic.
In fact, even ordinary knights and wizards who were protecting the dragonia of my time could use it, and I don't think that if the Dragon Knight were gone, it wouldn't be as magical as the Breathguard.
"Oh, it's almost over."
"Huh?"
If you look, the battle between Mr. Liliera and the Green Dragon was plugged into the climax.
"Huh!!"
In a flash of temper, Mr. Liliera's attack profoundly pierced the forehead of the Green Dragon.
"Freeze! Freeze lansu!!"
Mr. Liliera passes the magic of ice through his own spear and freezes the green dragon from the inside.
"Huh!?"
The green dragon also couldn't be prevented from freezing his head from the inside, and he was ice pickled his head as it was and cut off.
"... or I won"
Liliera, who defeated the Green Dragon, exhales loudly and enters over the forehead of the Green Dragon.
"Good day, Mr. Liliera. That's a brilliant Green Dragon Crusade."
"I didn't think I could crusade the dragon alone..."
Mr. Liliera looks incredible, but I believe that her strength would have allowed her to crusade back in time, like the Green Dragon.
"Damn, did they achieve Dragon Slayer first..."
And it was you, Gyro, who acted remorsefully.
He doesn't seem to be hurt, and it looks like you, Gyro, have succeeded in defeating the Wyburn herd.
"As my brother's apprentice, I wanted to be the first to kill a dragon."
"Good day, Gyro. Looks like you guys can take down all the Wyburns."
"Whoa, if it's me, Wyburn, it's no big deal!
Gyro, you pointed to Wyburn's carcass loaded with confidence.
If you look closely, Mr. Megli is silently dismantling it.
"Nah, I'm telling you, to be honest, there have been quite a few dangerous occasions. You're too prominent."
"Ugh."
You'll look like you chewed up a bitter bug after Mr. Mina's scratch.
Don't be alarmed, Mr. Gyro.
"... Yes"
"What about Mr. Norb, by the way?
I was concerned about not seeing Mr. Norb earlier, just in case.
I don't think Mr. Norb has ever been beaten to the point of Wyburn.
"Oh, Norb's treating the people and guards in the town who were injured during the first raid."
Oh, well, Mr. Norb is a monk, isn't he?
And Mr. Norb is a good monk to be able to go first to help people at times like this.
It's very different from the greedy Ethereal monks I met in my previous life.
I think I can help Mr. Norb with a slight force. [M]
"Liliera, we need to help treat the people in town..."
And when I turned my gaze to Liliera, who was resting on the green dragon I defeated, I realized something strange was going on.
"Oh, I defeated that girl dragon..."
"It's a dragon slayer..."
"And he's got a spear..."
"Could it be a spear maiden who can defeat a dragon..."
Somehow the people in town are squirming as they look at Mr. Liliera.
"Huh? What? What is it?
Liliera is confused that she doesn't know why.
"Definitely! That's the dragon emperor, the last dragon knight of the legend, Princess Dragon."
"Ha!?"
"Princess Ryu was really here!!"
"Is that the legendary Dragon Emperor's Emperor Sky Sky Art!
"Princess Ryu, you were so sparkling and beautiful when you were fighting!
"" "" "Princess Ryu - eh!
"Huh? Huh? What's going on? What's going on?
While the whole town was engulfed with excitement, Liliera was the only one who could not understand the situation.
Yeah, we don't know either.
"Well, but it's Mr. Liliera's first dragon kill achievement, and we'll celebrate. Mr. Liliera, please!
"" "Oh my God!
Gyro and you celebrate Mr. Liliera.
"Stop! I don't know, but don't worship me, don't mess with Mr. Rex and the others."
