The Road to One Day Be the Strongest

Lesson 9: Guardianship

- Dragon.

It's a fantasy creature, the most powerful life form.

It is also one of the species standing at the apex of the demon, fists crushing rocks, nails even wearing chunks of steel, scales even starting back any bullets, no heat or cold air passing through, exhalation turning people into ashes.

Such a monster that existence itself is like cheat.

Sole existed in front of me.

"hey......"

He screams without a voice and looks up at the dragon in front of him.

The overall slow-moving image is silver and silver.

By the way, dirt and mud are attached, but the scales shine brightly, and if you turn your gaze slowly toward its head, which led to the sickle, your gaze intersects with the giant eyes that just sit here.

- Death.

As soon as possible, the possibility passes behind the brain, flips at different speeds for reflexes, and runs at full force.

Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!

As my head was filled with words, I ran out of time to the storm of terror that struck my body, and to the feeling of absolute death, I had to leave the big room behind at a speed that I would give away for the first time in my life.

- And my body fell to the ground about.

"... Huh?

I stumbled on something...?

No, it's too much.

Yes, me with my confusion stuck in my face and my gaze at my feet.

That's why I saw it in my eyes.

".................. Huh!?

I was cut in two, I was the torso.

"Ahhhhhhhh!?

The scream burst from the back of my throat in such severe pain.

Ouch, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh... ooh!

If you lowered your gaze, there was a scar on your torso like a large, groping nail over your torso, with your lower and upper body living apart and bright red blood gushing out of your wound.

Hot enough blood transmitted the ground to turn it into a swamp, desperately moving his body sinking into a swamp of blood, gasping for pain, exhaling his roughened breath.

"Ma, mah, mah!?

Kyoka's screaming.

Looks like she's all right with the hardware on her hips... but I don't care which way I look at it, I'll make sure she's okay...

Vampires even heal limb loss overnight, but how did you see this? It's not an injury where the limb is lost, and this is all the major injuries in the first place...

"Ho, come on... death... ugh"

Because of the pain, because of the amount of bleeding, my vision gradually starts to distort.

The marsh of bright red blood is still spreading, and the dragon looks down here before you look up.

Even if we can manage this wound, maybe we can...

Yes, I almost gave up.

- I'm sorry, I saved your life. I hope I scratched your feet.

"Piron! [Protecting Reaper] Retrieved"

I opened my eyes to the medieval voice that sounded behind my brain, and to the information that sounded.

So, who... Mr. Reaper? And, or shelter...

Yes, it was me who rounded up an indefinite thought, but shortly afterwards my body unnaturally twitched and glanced toward my torso.

Then there is its own flesh that is rewound and repaired, and blood seems to be the only thing that is not returning, but it still opens its eyes and solidifies to the extra 'healing ability' - no, [immortality].

"Ko, this ability to recover…, but also, possibly, the power of the reaper's protection, the influence of" Improving the ability to recover "…!

Kyoka's voice sounded, and she said she was surprised to see her eyes open to the reconnected lower body - she heard the dragon's breath from above and flew off the scene aggressively.

As soon as I was there, the dragon's claws swooped away and my spine became cold at the blow, which never even made it possible to see me.

Well, I don't know what's going on, but thanks to the protection for now, I got over it. The effect of being a vampire, or I don't feel anaemic with all that bleeding - but I haven't solved the problem yet.

"Damn, that's... ugh!

There's a dragon staring this way in the front, without even checking it out, and I'm driven by the desire to punch myself into this room if there's no such thing as a 'super high life form' anyway.

but I don't care about that now.

Right now, there's only one thing that matters.

- How, survive from here.

It's just that.

Exhaled so loudly, I clenched my fist and stared at the dragon.

And...

".................. that"

A bright red scar engraved on the dragon's body.

And when he saw that he had collapsed into the earth like he had done his best, he accidentally looked at him.
