Sarah, the "Oriental Four Star," had no idea what was going to happen -- not at all predictable.

But "intuition" whispers.

Someone is trying to challenge the Earth Dragon.

That was strange even though there was no sign of people around. But this "intuition" rarely comes off.

(... if you're dealing with that giant, bump a monster the same size, or something? Could it be a beast? But —— I don't see such a big monster anywhere... no way underground?

Sarah looks haphazardly at the roots of the big tree where she is. But there is only the same earth that was spread out earlier.

(Different...... Transfer magic sends in all the power at once... there's no way. In the first place, metastatic magic is a frown spit.)

Then how the hell do you mean, who will fight?

(... out of my mind...? uncommon, but I wonder if I'll have to judge it that way)

Ground dragons are steadily progressing step by step.

It's getting pretty shaky around Sarah, too.

(Is this the tide? I wonder if Borderzad will have to give up. In a more wallproof decent city, prepare for pitfalls and stuff beforehand...)

Jump off the tree with a flicker.

Going down to the ground without a sound, she ran out toward Borderzad —— that was when.

Gobbaaaaaaa!!

I heard an explosion.

"... Huh?

A blast strikes her looking back. The hood is turned off and Sarah's purple hair is stirred up by the robe.

Sarah witnessed it (...).

Burning earth dragon face.

"--GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!"

Screaming enough to tremble the air.

But I only heard voices for a few moments.

Don't, don --.

From there, two huge fireballs hit the face of the Earth Dragon in a row.

Every time you land a bullet, the explosion flames up.

The long-necked ground dragon glances loudly at him like he does no good, but he lands a bullet at the tip of his glance.

As if I knew there was going to be a head there.

The two shots fired in were hit together.

—————————

When the explosion stopped, the earth dragon, pointing its carburized face toward heaven, fell overthrown.

The ground shakes, trees break, and soil smoke rises.

"Dead... of...?

No way. I don't believe it. What that magic. I've heard continuous magic is hard, but now it's "continuous" not "continuous". Impossible. You got more than one wizard? So many magic users? It's like —— that wizard's fire magic that was on the dirt wall.

!?

Sarah will be even more suspicious of her eyes.

A blast of flames rose from the ground dragon that fell overwhelmingly.

Don't.

Two more in a row this time.

The fire wraps around the entire body of the Earth Dragon.

"Can you still shoot magic?"

I cruised to see if I should or should not go.

The smell of meat being roasted on the wind drifts to Sarah's.

—— ————

That's when Sarah's ears picked up the little noise.

Sarah, who doesn't have a good special hearing, had a lot of training to break down and listen to things.

That's why I heard that "voice" as the sound of trees burning and birds flying echoed.

"A dragon... talked...?

Sarah moved out.

The distance to the ground dragon is about 150 meters.

Taking into account the "who" who fought the dragon, there is no speed to proceed while killing the signs.

That's how bad it is.

By the time I had taken so much longer than usual to reach the source of the Earth Dragon —— the living were no longer anywhere.

The ground dragon that carbided his face was completely out of stock.

My body is still burning. The tentacles are burning up especially thriving.

"No..."

Sarah snapped.

Until earlier, someone who was definitely there. Someone who defeated this dragon.

That's already disappearing perfectly.

Sarah's location is borderzad. That's where we got close, so if "someone" tries to leave, it should be different.

————

The creeping cold sensation runs through my spine.

I've actually tasted this feeling once recently.

It was when I was investigating the "disappearance of Countess" in the city of Pound. Turning off the signs, Sarah boarded (...) the merchant carriage for free and was exploring outside the city.

No one will notice what she looks like —— it should have been.

I thought they might have noticed that.

One boy —— the same brunette, dark-eyed boy as party member Celica-Tanowe -- approached the carriage Sarah was riding in.

He just looked like he was standing around.

But when Sarah wanted to go through it - it felt like she laughed slightly.

It was awkward.

After a moment he was back in his original blurry face, so I thought it was "my fault" at that time.

(Even then, if they had truly seen through this...)

The ability to kill your own signs will mean that you are not perfect.

He would have laughed spirally at himself for not realizing that fact.

It —— it made Sarah have anxiety and fear, as if she had been danced by someone who didn't know what to do.

Sarah turned her gaze to the ground dragon and noticed.

Ground dragons, which are mostly roasted, can barely take dragon scales, dragon skins, which would otherwise turn into large sums of money.

But in one place, there was not much burning.

throat, is.

There is a scale growing up and down opposite only one place there. This is called "backscaling".

The scales were peeling off.

In fact, the scales of the reverse scales themselves are the same as the other scales. Behind the scales, however, is buried the "dragonstone" that accumulates magic, necessary to move the body of a giant dragon species.

The dragonstone was gone clean.

"Most efficiently, it doesn't mean I took the loot..."

He said even the dragonstone earlier on his pinky finger could be exchanged for gold coins full of leather bags.

Ground Dragon's coarse dragon stone has a large rugby ball.

I can't imagine how much money Sarah will have.

Of course, we can sell roasted leftover dragon meat, and bones have a variety of uses again. The Adventurer Guild will gladly take over.

But the best trophy was taken away by someone.

"... Now the Borderzad crisis should have left... I kind of feel like I lost..."

Sarah turned her back on the ground dragon and headed to Borderzard. To tell this story to the party members and figure out what to do in the future.

Hikaru was relieved. That this operation hit the diagram. Besides my thoughts, I was able to defeat the Ground Dragon.

(Dr. Katie, don't do it)

On the way to Borderzad with Lavia, we were done experimenting with Livolver's new bullet.

I got 5 new bullets. He also succeeded in trapping Lavia's fire magic. I was worried if I couldn't defeat him with these 5 shots, but that was a concern.

Strike magic into your willing head first.

Maybe there was a possibility of one instant death. Hikaru had already waved the "sniper" of the soul board to 3.

[Sniping] … If an attack is carried out by an incoming object unnoticed by the target, a correction is made so that the attack is lethal. Up to 3.

As a flame characteristic, it degrades quickly after shooting. We ambushed them on the ground dragon's flow line because they weren't suitable for long-range sniping and waited until they approached us. I packed enough distance before shooting.

The "sniper" 3 blow couldn't stop me.

Screaming, rampaged ground dragon. Hikaru's foot has become unstable, but still the "throw" 10 is not the same. Ground Dragon collapsed when he hit two additional shots. Hikaru's appearance was not recognised by the Earth Dragon, and additional attacks also had the effect of "sniping" on them.

I felt my heart move so I shot the remaining two bullets into my body and burned them. "Life Detection," watching the dragon's flame of life get smaller --.

"… Cocode, Death Nunoca (Est Enim Moli) ……"

The dragon snapped. My face is carbide. He was making me say it all over the back of my throat.

"... Masaka, Ryu Dehanak" Eto Occidit Potius ", Man Ni" - Quam Polaesens Draco "..."

That's how I breathed out.

Hikaru sensed someone approaching and quickly broke the scales to retrieve the dragonstone.

After I found out it was the "dragon" who was here, I went down to find out what I should recover after I defeated him.

I threw my gaze at someone as they approached me, but I couldn't see if they were activating a "secret" either. Even though "Magic Detection" can tell.

Hikaru left the battlefield at a distance from the person.

My face shouldn't have been confirmed. Far away during the battle, Hikaru was wearing a hood. I've activated "Secret" now.

(That dragon, you said "dragon"... The dragon should be a giant snake-like one, like the one who was at the ruins of the Poern Senior dynasty. This dragon is a "dragon".... Are "dragons" and "dragons" against each other? Hi, I felt like that, but —— wait)

I think Hikaru is fuzzy.

The other day, I freed myself of "dragons".

"Dragons" recently started to operate.

Doesn't these two have anything to do with--?

"... I don't know"

Shake Kabuli.

I can't help thinking about things I don't know.

All you have to do is go back to Borderzad, rendezvous with Lavia, and retrieve Paula.

(Don't worry about Lavia. But Paula... please, I'm not causing any problems)

Hikaru hoped so.
