Skeleton Knight, in Another World

The next day, a little past Jomtien, the sun was brightly illuminating the forest under his eyes.

Behind it, the Wind Dragon Mountains stretch long east and west like walls, and from there, at the foot, the green carpet of the forest stretches all the way to one side, further northwest is the Fire Dragon Mountains, and northeast is the Ice Dragon Mountains with no gaps.

Apparently, this place has a basin-like terrain surrounding all directions by mountains.

Yesterday we were able to find our way from the location of the underground lake to the upper part of the cave, and we broke the rest of the itinerary early the morning after the camp on the banks of the underground lake.

I found a path leading from the top to the back of a fairly tall waterfall that was visible behind the underground lake, from where I went deep and went on a narrow path before exiting to a branch that led to the original journey, but it would have been pretty tough to go back to the original path if I couldn't use the Elf earth spiritual magic to climb that cliff-like waterfall or the transitional magic like myself.

There was also a large amount of light emitting crystals (light crystals), often found in places with underground lakes, and the visuals that were necessary for metastatic magic passed through them.

Now through that long and dark cave, in front of a cave that opened to mountain skin slightly lower than the middle belly of the Wind Dragon Mountains, he had his eyes on the surrounding landscape alongside Arian and Chiyome.

"You were able to get through the cave before dark."

Arian says so, exhaling in relief as he spreads the map he was given inside.

"You finally made it through the Wind Dragon Mountains. Now we can have some good news inside..."

"Ki-yu."

Chiyome is raising some emotional voice to the landscape in front of her, and on top of that, Ponta, who is playing by making sure she clings to her cat ear, squeals.

I guess that's not why the twitching of the ponta is ticklish or anything else that is always slightly reddish of that look that seems clear.

"Lord Arian, where is the destination spring?

Speaking to Arian, who had lost an eye on the map, she gradually raised her face and alternated her gaze with both the surrounding view and the map to point to a point of view in front of her.

Looks like it's near the top of that mountain.

Having said that, the tip of her indication was such that she would jump out of the woods spreading beneath her eyes, a mountain like a rock made up of rocks near the summit of the mountain.

It is not far from the Wind Dragon Mountains, and from here the altitude does not seem that high. But near the summit of the mountain, a giant tree roots in the rocky mountains, and it sees only a strange presence to make the branches grow (sama) so as to spread the umbrella.

"The giant tree that looks like the summit of that mountain is the dragon crown tree (Road Crown). From here, you can't see a giant dragon nearby."

Look at the great tree near its summit as you stare at it.

"I don't know yet from here. If you ever run into Dragon Lord, I'll take care of it.

Arian pokes his index finger this way and gently pokes his chest armor.

I didn't want to antagonize that top species of dragon, which is also the most powerful species of creature in the breadth, so I snorted back in silence.

The mountain skins of the Wind Dragon Mountains do not have well-maintained mountain paths, but descend to the foot through the bush of the trees looking for a relatively gentle slope.

Just as we descended along the mountain range to the east, we eventually slipped through to a place that was a little high up and saw a mountain with the summit of a giant tree in front of us.

They were considerably closer than they had seen in front of the cave, and unlike earlier, the figure that looked down took the form of a slight look up, which made the giant tree at the top of the mountain look larger.

The woods at the bustling foot of the trees are slightly neglected around the hemline of that mountain, spreading green meadows, where large, blue rocks lie in the shadows of the trees in front.

And I saw an object built near the border between the meadow and the mountain that doubted my eyes.

I don't know the exact size at the distance from here, but considering the height of the trees in the vicinity, is that about ten meters high?

It is breathtaking to see two struts standing and two rod-shaped structures placed up and down so that they are passed horizontally between the top of that strut - neglected in a plain with nothing like its unique gateway structure.

"Is that...?

"What's the matter, Arc-!?

A slightly rubbed voice rose from his mouth and, unconsciously, activated the metastatic magic [Dimensional Walking Method (Dimensional Move)] to stand in front of a structure made of its gray stone.

I couldn't even hear Ariane calling me when I was transferring, and I was blocked on my way by the activation of metastatic magic, but that's trivial now.

It was a "birdhouse” that was built in front of me.

The foot of the two struts was covered in green moss, without any particular noticeable decoration, in a simplified form that merely combined stone columns, but it is indisputably a birdhouse.

I've never seen anything like this in the city since I came to this world.

Having said that, Chiyome, who hoped to be on the same path this time, said that the first Hanzo lair, which had intrigued their family of Blade Hearts (Jinsin), was in this land beyond the Wind Dragon Mountains.

If the first Hanzo is Japanese or someone with knowledge of Japan, this birdhouse is probably an indication of his lair.

You can see behind the birdhouse in the evidence. There, you can see the stone staircase, thought to have been built by the hands of men, built to climb mountain skins.

I thought that the mountain that stood in the woods, trying to stick only one out, would be the hiding place Chiyome was looking for, and when I tried to get back to her quickly to let her know about it, the rock at my feet suddenly wobbled and I accidentally poked my knee.

Nice work kicking this non's back, kid!!

A voice poured directly into my head, and at that moment I accidentally tried to circle my gaze around me, the rock at my feet, lifted to bounce and my body was thrown out into the air.

The body, bounced up to a considerable height, begins to fall by making sure that it is immediately pulled by gravity, also by the weight of the all-body armor wrapped around it.

But what my eyes caught in the fall was the appearance of four wings growing from what I thought was a blue-grown rock at my feet.

Then a long neck lifted from the object, and a head with a huge horn that was at the tip of his neck opened his mouth wide and raised a roaring roar around him, wondering if he had shown a zoror-lined fang.

A tremor of air, as if a wall of sound were imminent, runs around, and birds rise in the sky simultaneously from the trees of the surrounding woods.

He manages to twist the body thrown out in the air, takes the reception and rolls it to the ground to miss the shock.

What was in front of me was a giant dragon.

Overall covered in blue scales, four large wings spread from the back. There are two black, long horns on the head, one on the left and the other on the neck, with striped texts, and the total length of that giant dragon with tough limbs and long tails is about twenty to thirty meters from head to tail.

But despite such a giant, the movement is astonishingly handsome, and the power of a lightly twisted body to sweep away the surrounding trees and cause the meadows to expand is quite a threat.

─ ─ Is this the Dragon King Arian was talking about?!?

As those giant dragon eyes narrowed their vertically cracked pupils and stared this way, they opened their big mouths again and let out a growl.

The body lowers slightly behind the roar that involves a physical shock wave, but withstands it and shakes its head gently to shake off the roar that lingers on its ears.

"Ho!? I didn't know you could do that by eating the intimidation of Non - but I see you've just come to try this Non, kid!!!

Once again, he reaches a voice like a man who sounds directly into that brain, so that the blue dragon in front of him distorts his mouth and peels off his mouth fangs.

Looks like he's laughing.

Apparently, this voice comes from the Dragon King (Dragon Road) in front of you. Like a direct prefix. This would be like a so-called psychosensitivity (telepathy).

If the other person is an intelligent life form, they usually start interacting (communicating) from greeting, but at some point they were put in a position like brave men challenging the Dragon King (Dragon Road).

The birdhouse distracted me, and I never thought that the object I thought was the first rock to transfer without checking it out was Dragon King.

If you look at it as the Dragon King (Dragon Road) in front of you, you can take it as if you stomped on yourself and provoked it, but as for yourself, I don't want to fight the top species of the dragon species by cutting it head-on.

"Wait! I'm willing to fight...!!?

He hurriedly raised his voice to give an explanation to the Dragon King (Dragon Road) in front of him, but it was beaten back with his opponent's mighty gratuity.

"No questions asked!! Know how shallow you are!!

The thought of the Dragon King (Dragon Lord) echoes in his brain, and the dragon giant in front of him moves. It was by a long tail that it was rolled out so as to turn its back.

─ ─ When I first meet someone who really says no questions asked and comes at me, I look at the threat that has hit me even though I think about swallowing things.

The impending dragon's tail clarity had been precisely aimed towards this side as it flattened the surrounding terrain.

Less than half a breath, the moment I took the stand with the 'Heavenly Shield of Teutates' in my left hand, a blow from the tail of the dragon crashed into the shield and a severe impact struck me.

The impact made my left hand feel paralyzed and damaged my arm considerably, but I couldn't afford to do that now.

Flip the attitude where the tail tweezer was bounced off and the Dragon King (Dragon Road) now goes against his neck behind him. I couldn't get an accurate grasp from the position I was looking up from below, but I could see a light converging in my mouth and a nasty chill running down my spine.

If you look at this preliminary motion, you can guess if you've ever confronted a dragon in a game.

At the next moment, as the mouth of a dragon with its mouth wide open was directed down toward it, the ball of light that was formed in its mouth flashed and a stream of light was fired with the roar.

"Nooooooooooooooo!!?

The rays emanating from the Dragon King (Dragon Road), shaking the surrounding air, instantly erased the forest that was on its straight line, deciding heavily on the terrain.

I jumped laterally from the range of the rays at the inches, but with the rays of their destruction, the shock waves that hit me will blow up the surrounding earth, so that this one will be stirred up by the aftermath, and then rolled up and blown up.

My body rolls over the earth as if it were a draining stone as the landscape in my eyes drastically switches heaven and earth.

When the body finally stops with the kind of impact that can be struck somewhere, he hurries to get himself up on the spot and try to find out what's going on around him.

But it's dark in front of me, and I can't see what's going on around me.

"Nooo!? Does that dragon's brace even have a Dark Condition Abnormal (Bad Status) Grant Effect!?

I touch my face with my free hand, trying to check my condition in a little panic.

"Whoa, my helmet is backwards and forwards..."

Apparently, the front and back of the helmet moved during an earlier intense cone rub. Return the helmet to the correct position and shake your head once to see how you are.

After making sure there was no deviation, he slowly rose and looked at the surrounding view.

Dragon braces from the first hand of the Dragon King (Dragon Road) caused the surrounding terrain to change dramatically, and the remnants of its destruction became earthen smoke and stood in.

Apparently it was blown out of the direction of the mountain where the birdhouse was.

The trees in the surrounding woods blow up unbroken, and you can see long stretches of soil peeled out like they drew a straight line into the woods.

If you eat that attack properly, you won't just be sorry for this body of your own on the boulder. The aftermath of the brace alone feels like it took a lot of damage.

That's a place like Dragon King (Dragon Road), whose name is not Dade.

"This isn't a single, challenging opponent...... [Great healing (overheel)]"

It is unclear where there are wounds in a body composed of bones, but it hangs the magic of restoring the priesthood to restore the damage done to its own body.

As the warm light flooded the surroundings and let those lights suck into their own bodies while glowing and disappear, it was found that the pain in the body drew and the movement lightened.

"Ho, you..., it's a big deal that you're alive from eating that attack, even though you just plundered over playing the first blow. Sometimes it's just a challenge."

Even though the earthly smoke flowed in the wind and the distance was so far away that the dragon king's giant appeared a little smaller, the wood-spirited voice in his brain clearly echoed to the other head.

From here, the fighting will of the Dragon King (Dragon Road) rises to such an extent that it is well understood, and when its four large wings are spread and feathered, its giant floats in the universe, its neck is circled and its roar is raised again.

You won't get a voice of clarification from here, and your opponent is already in a critical position and there doesn't seem to be any way to avoid a fight, no matter what.

[Metastatic Gate] allows you to escape at once, but leaves Arian and Chiyome behind. The [Dimensional Walking Method (Dimension Move)] has a limited range to travel in the surrounding woods with poor vision, and there are not many places to escape with the Dragon King (Dragon Road) in the open area behind the front.

You can attack in the first place with a short-range transfer, but it seems difficult to shake off the tracking of dragons running through the sky.

Even if we talk about it, there's nothing we can do to make it happen in this situation.

─ ─ You mean the only way to brace your stomach?

"[Sacred Thunder Sword (Karadborg)]!!"

When the pale and pitiful sword body glows and the purple electricity runs, the flashing sword body appears to wrap the pale thunder (Kazuchi), stretching more than twice the length of the normal sword.

No spare time.
