The Dungeon Struggle of an Earth Dragon!

Kejime to the brave Kadias?

Well, it's certainly the one of us, in a way, who looks like the biggest victim.

"But what exactly are we going to do? I mean, you ate cadiaz, didn't you?

I know what happened because they sent me details in a memory transmission.

While I'm asleep, the other me eats Cadias and takes in that power.

At last, my body was eaten with me in my previous life.

There's nothing untrained or good about my body.

"Oh, it's still in my stomach"

Pom pom and the other me slapping myself in the belly.

"Elibel."

"Yeah, I know. I've kept in touch. Maybe in a little while, she'll be here too."

That said, Elibel turns her heel back.

Is that it? Does Elibel already know what she's gonna do?

"Where are you going?

Don't leave me alone.

"We're going to see how everyone else is doing. I'm ready, so there's no more of my turn here, and it's more efficient to help you with something else, right?... what, those lonely eyes"

'No, nothing...'

It's not like it's awkward to be just the other me and the two of us.

There is no need for such a thing now.

"Well, I'll see you later."

And Elibel wandered through the metastasis gate and disappeared.

…………

".................. eh"

"What the fuck?

"No, nothing... Oh, so what are we going to do now?

"There's another one coming here now, I'll talk to you then."

Talk now!

And I can stick it in and hang out where I want to do it.

Who's coming?

"You'll see."

Talk now!

And I can manage to get in there and do what I want.

- And a few minutes passed without any particular conversation.

"... oh, you seem to be here"

The transfer gate installed in the corner glowed out.

Oh, this subtle air finally dissolves.

But who is it?

She's a woman, isn't she?

Is that around the lanaroid?

He's the same reincarnator I am, and he's profoundly responsible for demon kings and brave men.

But the person who showed up was my unexpected.

"- Is this... is it already in the dungeon?

"... yeah. Watch your step."

"Oh, I think you've been back for some time"

There were three of them who showed up.

Two of them were people I knew very well.

"Una? And Dos."

"... eh, dad, just now"

"Father, I missed you"

Una has embraced the momentum well.

It's just that I'm too big to hold around my ankle.

"Oh, this warmth of your father... it's been a long time... kun kun"

Una nods her face in tears.

Right... I missed you so much - and what are you smelling!

"... hey, glad to see you too..."

Dos is as faceless as ever, but he doesn't have a heart or his voice looks like he's playing.

No, I'm glad to see you two, too.

But it's still a little early to celebrate the reunion.

Before we do that, we have to see how she got here with the two of us.

"- Are you sure... Orion, right?

Virgin “Holy Cabinet” Orion Curler.

Blind Sister with big tits.

A key figure in the Holy King, with Una and Doss as escorts at the Continental Conference.

Why is she here?

"Orion, you've come a long way"

But the other me welcomes her, as if she'd waited.

"This voice sounds in my head...... yes, you are Mr. Earth Dragon Earth. Una and the others are asking about the story. Thank you for inviting us to the dungeon."

And Orion says hello normally.

What's this? What's this all about?

I mean, what do you care about me?

"Okay, well, here we go, buddy."

"What!?

At least explain it to me!

Why are the people around me leaving me to talk about it?

Does this really mean I'm here anymore?

'Oh, you did. Explain when Orion arrives. "

The other me finally seemed willing to explain.

Using her abilities, the Sacred Cabinet, to have a dialogue with the dead. So, I'll fulfill Cadias' wishes. '

... what?

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇

Meanwhile, around that time...

"... mmm..."

Wake up.

When Yuku opened his lid, it was the ceiling of a familiar dungeon.

"Is that...? I'm sure..."

With that said, Saint Dragon Elja wakes up slowly.

"Sure... in the Sixth Area, fighting the Captain of the Demon King's Army, so -"

Zukin and my head hurt.

Reminds me of my condition until the last minute.

"- Huh! That's right, I'm -!?"

Ha, ha. Confirm your body.

Having fought and caught my guard against executives, I was subjected to a superb curse.

A powerful curse that cannot be erased by your purifying abilities.

But...

"... Huh?

None.

The engraving of the curse that was eroding me is gone, as is the pain that tears my body from the inside out.

What's this all about?

- I think you're awake.

Turning around, there was Elibel.

After breaking up with Earth, she was in a deep treatment room.

"Elibel... Dear Sir? Is this...?

"Try to focus your consciousness on your body. You'll see."

That's what they say, concentrate your consciousness.

Then I felt strange discomfort.

Even though it's my body, it feels like I'm manipulating it from afar with yarn.

"This is - possessory, is it?

"That's right. So, Elja's body is that way."

In the direction Elibel pointed, she had her own body in a translucent capsule.

The even-handed nudity is engraved with a disastrous curse, and all over the flesh is destroyed.

But what bothered me more than that was the sphere attached as if it had been forced into the chest area.

Is that - "Demon Nucleus"?

Besides, the magic I feel is a misdigit.

The nucleus of the demon embedded in his chest is pulsating, and every time a curse engraved on his body has disappeared little by little.

"... that demon nucleus is purifying my curse?

"Yes."

Oh, my God.

Elja swallowed her breath at the sight.

Saint Dragon's purifying ability to break a curse so powerful that it cannot be erased by itself.

The tension that was ready to die looses once and for all.

"Boulder, Master Elibel, isn't it? I can't believe we had such an amazing trump card. But it's bad for people to shut up. I almost died, didn't I?

"... right"

…… Master Elibel?

To that poorly chopped reaction, Elja puts her neck up.

Something's wrong.

What's wrong with it?

With that said, Elja thought.

"By the way, Master Elibel, where did you get this demon nucleus from? Such an amazing purifying ability, such a demon... what..."

That's about it, Elja changed her expression.

Unnaturally, my body trembled.

I felt a cold sweat that shouldn't have flown.

"... ah... eh?

And I came to that possibility.

But it can't be.

That can't be right.

'Cause the demon - it's supposed to still keep the sanctuary in line and protect her homeland.

"………………………… Father?

To that grunt close to solitary, Elibel nods, and - tells her the brutal truth.

"That's right. Holy Dragon Halshalud is dead. Fight the Imperial Beast, Azil."

"-"

The battle between Harsha and Azil, the end of it.

All the subsequent total force battles with the Grounds were also explained in detail to Elja.

Surprisingly, Elja was listening to it in silence.

- Yes, it was.

After hearing everything, Elja said so to squeeze out the words.

"It must be because of the lifting of the 'Sanctuary Boundary'. Harsha had little power left. He was poked there and defeated by Azil.... I guess he was still able to fight well because he was a true dragon king species who awakened his power..."

"It was..."

Frequent silence.

Slowly, Elja asked.

"... If I hadn't carried the curse, wouldn't your father have died?

"What do you think? If, as it were, Harsha continued to maintain the bond -"

What would have happened?

meaningless if, but Elibel will consider the possibility.

If the 'Sanctuary Boundary' had not been lifted, the battle against the Demon King's Army would have followed a path of further intensification. They must have gone further behind the dungeon, continued their march and suffered more damage to the dungeon.

Not only that, but that giant of Azil will almost destroy the middle tier area. There must have been less damage to the deep areas. There may have been a death among the families who were the Lord, and more importantly, it would have been almost impossible to help Elja.

Yes, if you only want to see the 'results' - thanks to Harsha's unraveling of the line, the stage of the showdown moved to the Ford Desert outside the dungeon, and the life of the Earth dungeon, and the families, Elja, was saved.

I can see it that way.

But even Elibel, the boulder, said it here.

Because it's like saying that everyone was saved because of your father's death.

What's the matter with you?

Me and Elibel are worried as they scratch their heads,

"- I've made up my mind..."

"Huh?"

Elja, who had tilted until then, suddenly raised her face.

The face was unmistakably bright and smiling.

And I hit the bread and the cedar hand.

"I've made up my mind, Master Elibel! I'll be stronger! This battle has caused me pain in the ass how impudent I am! So, be stronger, and let the Holy Dragon your father cross - yes, I will try to be a true Dragon King species!

"Uh... Elja?

"If that's what you decide, this is not how you want it. First, we have to hurry to fix the dungeon. In the state of possession, there may be something and a lack of power, but I can help you too"

…………

"After that, I'm sorry, but I'm going to take a moment of your time. Return to the Holy Land, Poloros - to the Holy Dragons, we have to communicate our future policies, right? Your father's dead, so I'm going to have to put everyone together as a chief, and oh, you're going to be busy."

"... Elja"

"When we're done rebuilding the sanctuary and the dungeon, we also have to deal with the Demon King's Army, right? What are you going to do with the dungeon over there? Oh, with that said, the Imperial Beast and a few executives were alive to catch, too, right? Boulder, it's Master Earth. How strong are you? So that I can be..."

"Elja!

When Elibel screamed, Elja shook herself in a vicious manner.

"E, Master Elibel, what is it? Suddenly he shouted out loud..."

Elibel walks close to Elja once and for all.

And I grabbed those shoulders tight.

"You don't have to be strong."

"Huh? No, what... are you saying?

"When it's hard, you don't have to be patient."

"... Huh?

Elibel hugs Elja and strokes Pompom and his head.

"When you're sad, you can cry in someone's chest."

"Hey, what are you talking about? Wow, I'm not sad. I'm not even patient! Your father died because your father was weak."

"You don't lie to me."

"I can't believe you're lying."

"You'll see. Elja says you can't."

"Ah..."

"When it's really hard, I don't want to push myself up, I want someone to give me a hand and I want to get up slowly. You can lean on me, or you can carry me. No one blames it. 'Cause that's normal."

…………

"The important thing is not to be ashamed of it. Otherwise, you'll be hoarding forever and running wild at will at the end of the day, and you'll end up bothering everyone more."

- Because I used to, too.

In my heart, says Elibel.

…………

"Perhaps it's a shame that someone who comforts you is me, not my dear Earth."

When Elibel jokes like that and says,

"... it's sloppy... to say it that way..."

"It's okay to be sloppy. So stop being patient."

That said, Elibel hugs Elja even harder.

Then,

"... uhhhhhhhhhh! Father! Father! Father! Ahhhhhhh! Oh dear...... sorry. Always cold... I can't believe this is happening... Wadaguji I haven't been able to give anything back yet... I'm sorry... sorry... Father... Father, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh..."

Elja kept crying, as the dam had broken down.

Father, Father and I kept crying in Elibel's chest, saying it like it was every wow over and over again.

"(- Really, what a loser...)"

It's not my pattern to comfort you.

I'm not a character.

But then...

- I'm sorry.

What are you talking about? No, I didn't do anything wrong. Who do you think I am?

'... well. Well, I'm sorry, I'm, I'm pretty tired. So after a little rest, why don't we act?

Battle in the Imperial capital.

That's what that idiot said when she killed her own master, Lias, and comforted herself without a pattern.

He ran wild on his own and waited until he stopped crying, without blaming himself or attacking himself for taking arbitrary action in jeopardy of the dungeon, even making a bad excuse.

So this is in return.

You've done something stupid, so you have to do something that isn't even in the pattern to destroy at least your sins.

Elibel remained beside her until Elja reached a sob and tired sleep.... uncommonly without pranking its sleeping face.

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇

Ann stood in the Eldo Wilderness.

In front of you, Hereb, the head of Acleto Crowe, a corner of the two great forces in the Erdo wilderness, stops a giant rock and replaces a tree, resting his body.

'This time it helped. Again, thank you.'

'Hmm, never mind. Our clan also has shallow causes for the Demon King's Army. We just have a mutual interest. "

'Cause...?

After I said it, Hereb regretted saying something extra.

"... we, Acleto Crowe, used to belong to the Demon King's Army."

'Really?

"Oh, before I was born. My father, who saw the big picture before they were sealed in the dungeon - an earlier chief left the Demon King's army and came to the land. It was a rich forest."

"Forest...?

There's this one-sided rock and the earth spreading out in the Erdo wilderness?

'That's right. More than four hundred years ago, this forest was so rich that it was comparable to the Yugur Great Forest to the west'.

Hereb says as he misses the old days.

"Well, there's no shadow to see now. That's why I'm surprised. Your Lord has made forests in the Erdo wilderness again, albeit underground. You could rightly call it a feat. '

Ann also feels awkward when she is praised for Ground.

It's actually just a hobby gardening, but these two don't know that fact.

"I wanted to show my father that sight, too."

'... Excuse me, but what about your father?

'Dead already. Give me the chief's seat.... He was a great man. I can tell you no more fierce men will show up...'

"Really?"

I guess it was an extra demon for this magnificent Hereb to say so.

It was Anne I would have liked to see if I could.

Nevertheless, how many troubles can you bring to this Eldo wilderness with the Dragon King, the Imperial Beast, to kill the Dragon? If all of them were mistaken, this Eldo wilderness would have been destroyed, wouldn't it?

Ann feels somewhat sorry for Hereb, who speaks so loudly.

"You can't even open your name about it..."

So is Ann, but Earth is in more trouble than that.

Even if the person doesn't do something, he comes waving from the other side.

Well, I don't think there's any more trouble with the boulder than this one.

'They're totally, really noisy. Four hundred years old commotion would still be better said of this'

Heleb in a bad way, but I could have guessed to Anne that that was not a word out of my heart.

This crow guides all those who live in the Eld Wilderness.

"Four hundred years ago?

'Oh, didn't you say that before? Four hundred years ago, there were black ants like you. "

Yeah. That said, Anne remembers.

I've never seen Heleb before - or I thought I was saying that when I fought.

That's why I suddenly mentioned Ann's race name in my first meeting.

'Especially since he was insane, unlike you. Still, it had the strength to break. Individually or as a herd. What's your first name... something like that? Sure - Mi... mulls... Was it?

'- Huh?'

Docun, and.

Ann felt her heart rattle.

I can't believe that name came up on this occasion.

'... Hereby, can you tell me more about that story?

'Mm-hmm? I don't mind, but it's gonna be a little longer, okay?

"I don't mind."

When asked as much, Ann lowered her hips on the spot.

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇

Detention facilities set up on the middle floor.

The Imperial Beast Azil was falling asleep in the sorcery that sealed the various abilities of the subject, including magic, muscle strength, and motor ability. Earth devoured the majority of his existence, and now he has no power left to the extent of an intermediate demon.

With that in mind, it is Elibel's decision that this restraint may be somewhat excessive, but it should be borne in mind.

"Hey, you lost, Azil"

Talking to him like that over the magic line is a plain woman with cracked glasses.

It's the witch, Leonard Reynolds.

"... what can I do for you?

"Do I have to run errands? Terrible, isn't it me and you?"

…………

Azil with an indescribably subtle face to the word.

I've been dating her for over five hundred years, including the period she's sealed.

Well, to put it that way, Zahark, Henri, etc. will be dating for over a thousand years.

Lenaloid laughs bitterly against Azil, who turns away a lot.

"- For now, good news. Halwatart, you're alive."

So Leonaroid decided to finish the report first for now.

Halwatart.

Just like Henri, he was captain of the Demon King's Army, a demon that was hitting the defense of the other dungeon.

"After you sent Henri this way, you seem to have struggled against you and the silver ghosts by yourself. He's probably dying, but he's not dead."

"... right"

Not in that tone, but it felt like there was a mix of definite relief voices there.

"In the end, there were only three surviving executives. Zahark, Henri, and only you, Harwatart. The rest of you are all dead."

…………

"You were strong, Eli, Earth, and their families."

…………

"Hey, how do you feel right now? How do you feel now that the people you've accompanied for hundreds of years are dead?

Azil also looked at the boulder in response to the lenaloid, which asked him to fold up.

"... have you come to disparage me?

"You mean it turned out that way, didn't you? I'm not my brother-in-law."

"Say no to our invitation, and I'll say it often."

"If you'd come directly, you might have been snorting, wouldn't you? It's your negligence not to do that."

"You're lying. Even if I went out in person, you wouldn't have snorted. [M] Whatever you need..."

"Yeah, I made more important friends than Azil."

Lenaloid says so that it can be worded in the words of Azil.

"... I couldn't believe it when I first heard it."

"Right. Maybe I didn't believe it."

She was really rough at the time she was under contract with Azil.

Leaping to destroy everything, she was happy to provide the Demon King's Army with her knowledge of her previous life - when she lived in Japan, fuelling wars between people and demons.

"... so you're here to talk to the public like that?

"No, of course not. I came here because I wanted to ask you something. After the war for a while, we'll be busy, before then."

"What do you want to hear?

Earth, it's about you.

I knew it or not, Azil thought.

"Whatever he thinks is too unusual. Even minus the reincarnation and the son of Gibble, that strength and growth rate is unusual. Only three years old, and you and Uronus, the Divine Disaster Class, can fight? Impossible. Whatever you think, it's not normal."

"I guess. I think so too. So, what do you want to know?

About his father.

…………

"Perhaps, in my opinion, that's the key to everything. Regarding his growth, about Gibble, about your cause, about all the events so far, you know. So tell me."

"What do you want to do with it?

"I don't know. I'll think about it later, with Eli."

Still, Azil looks into Lenaloid's eyes.

"You've got eyes that you'll never pull until you teach.... Okay, let me tell you. Anyway, there's nothing I can do anymore."

"You broke it lightly."

"For once, you're a loser. Besides, the brave men who beat the Demon King are rewarded, aren't they?

"It's a game promise, isn't it?... He remembered me."

We also talked about Japanese games and comics, but they said Azil remembered them well.

"I've never forgotten the time I spent with you. That's what we talked about. It's all very important to me."

"Right.... So, Earth, what's your father?

"Can't you blossom in old stories?... well, fine."

Once words are separated,

"- Zepal. That's the name of that dragon."

Azil uttered the name.

"Zepal...... hey. That's the first name I've ever heard."

There is no demon of that name in the knowledge she knows.

"Well, it took me hundreds of years to find out."

I mean, that's all there is?

"Zepal - the dragon of alchemy who made it your father and created all the artifacts. And... he created a dungeon of star veins." Before. "He's the god disaster dragon king."
