Yotogi no Kuni no Gekkouhime

Lesson 27: Swords and Shields

The red dragon that landed in front of Serene was really huge when seen nearby. Unparalleled by elephants, the giant body is surprisingly covered with a shiny giant scale like a crimson shield. From the thick limbs like stone columns and the wings of the bat-like dermis, the thick, long tails and the two black corners were filled with the majesty of the absolute strong.

"Wow!

And Red Dragon immediately grabbed Serene, who was wearing a buttcake. The little Serene body was softly imprisoned in a cage called the Dragon's Hand.

"You werewolf! Serene, let Lord go!

Serene gets caught. No, Bear Beech is not scared of overwhelming dragon intimidation either, he hands a knife to the sheath and attempts an interception with great momentum. His best skill is in a knife extraction technique called abode. Its slaughter is unbeatable. It is powerful enough to cleave iron fortified by witchcraft.

'Huh!'

"Argh!?

However, that proud knife extraction technique never showed any power. Shortly before touching the dragon, Bear Bee's body danced through the universe and was blown backwards. The bear kills the momentum as he rolls down the grass and manages to get up on one knee.

'That's sturdy. If you were a human, you'd have passed out. "

The dragon shrugged like surprise. What the dragon did was simply unleash the magic that he had. To the extent that it breathed in humans, but the magical fluctuations, which are not normally original, can be a tremendous shock wave for humans.

"Bear bee! Are you all right!"

"Hey, what a prick! More than that, Lord Serene!

"I know!

Milan and his squire rushed from the rear to try to help the bear bee up, but he stood up on his own. In the meantime, the other squire faces the dragon with a protective dagger, a hammer, inside a frying pan, etc.

"Stop it! Don't be impotent!

Milan screams to stop his men's recklessness. They're not combat personnel, they only have enough combat capability to defend themselves. Nevertheless, his loyalty to Milan, and, in order to protect Milan's beloved Serene, he pushes and kills fear.

"Out of the way."

Naturally, there is no way that such a thing could lead to a dragon. When the dragon waved a long tail that seemed troublesome, the squire was all knocked down in one swing and lost consciousness as it was.

"Hi-yah!

Serene, when he said, was trembling in the palm of a dragon. I said I wanted to go home, but this is just unexpected.

"Kuh......! Serene! I'm gonna help you now!

When Milan twists his fears with a sense of purpose, he makes his thoughts wander desperately. In this overwhelming disadvantage, how can we save Serene? All the squires have been defeated, and the only ones who can fight now are themselves and the bear bees.

"(My sword won't hold his teeth!)"

Milan bites his teeth. At his specialty in swordsmanship that covers weakness with agility, he won't be able to scratch one on the dragon's stubborn scales. Attempts to reinforce with magic will not reinforce the weapon only with the body. My slender sword breaks me.

Then why don't we stay together with the Bear Bear Sword? But he has no resistance to magic. When I tried to cut it off earlier, I was blown away by the dragon's ripple. No matter how heavy a blow you let go, it doesn't make sense if you can't hit it.

- Then there is only one means to be taken.

"Bear bee! I'll be the shield! You be a sword!

"Shield or sword? …… you have understood!

When Bear Beech understands Milan's intentions with Azumi's breath, Milan pulls out his favorite skinny sword that was lowering to his waist and storms straight into the dragon.

"Again. It's useless to do it again and again. '

The dragon ejected steam from his nose. Apparently, the dragon sighs. Just stick it straight in from the front. Besides, the next one looks a lot more luxurious than the earlier humans.

'Huh!'

The dragon, like earlier, emits a light wave of magic towards the front. Later, the blonde blows up, and the same ending as the earlier one - not!

"Ahhhhhhhh!!

Milan's entire body emits phosphorescence. Unleash your magic and strengthen your flesh. He wraps his magic around his own body and hits himself with fluctuations so that he can hit his body. His body lifts up, but he does not flicker and waves his sword with momentum. Bakin makes a hard noise and the sword snaps. But his sword is not in vain either. It offset the magic fluctuations and tore them in two.

"What!?

The dragon opened his huge eyes and was stunned. I didn't think humans could resist their magic, though how much they were out of hand. But it's only from now on that the dragon will be truly amazed.

"Kieeeeeeeeeee!!

Suddenly, strange noises like the roar of a strange bird rise from the rear of Milan. It's a bear bee! As he chased away to hide in the shadows of Milan, he jumped like a disease at the end of a dragon that had lost its magic fluctuations and become empty. A perfectly acclaimed dragon has no such thing about the movement of a bear bee.

"Ready!

Bear Beech's sword extraction technique - a powerful blow that tore apart the seal of Arquila's magic and also cleaved iron captured the dragon. The aim is just one point, the right forefoot finger grabbing Serene. If we cut there, we could rescue the captive princess - it should have been.

"Gu!? Stupid! '

"Stupid!?

Dragons and bears, each other surprise (today) at the same time. The dragon said that his scales had been cut slightly, and that the bear had only cut the scales slightly with a blow to his whole body by the proud sword of love.

'That's a hassle. Let's leave it at this.'

Bear bees that ran out of health were full of gaps, but the dragon didn't try to fight back. It's a life-threatening special attack from Milan and Bear Beech, but if you try it from a dragon, it's just a joke.

I was observing ants and playing, and two of them bit me. It is a sense to that extent. I also thought it was ridiculous to be too annoying, and the dragon kicked the earth and rose high in the sky.

"Sereneeeeee!!

Milan screams. But before Serene responded to that voice, the dragon rose to altitude at once, to a height that humans could not reach. Then, as he showed the humans in the lower realm, he swirled loosely on the spot and flew away to the other side of the sky, in the northern direction. From the direction, I guess I'm aiming for the White Forest.

"Prince! We have to go after him quickly!

I can't afford to wipe the sweat, and a breathless bear bee rushes over to Milan. As Milan glanced around, those who had been paid with the tail of the dragon earlier also rose, holding down the injured part. Luckily, there doesn't seem to be any serious injuries. If you chase with a horse from now on, there is no zero chance that you can chase it away to a slow-flying dragon.

"Kuh...!

Two thoughts come to the back of Milan's brain.

Instinct screams. Go. If we don't go after him now, we're gonna lose Serene completely.

Reason screams. Stop. If we can't storm here now, we'll all die in vain.

- Milan chose the latter.

".................. once, pull up to Helifarte"

"But prince! If we go after him now, we will lose sight of the dragon completely!

"I know! But all but me, including you, have no magic. I can't go straight into the White Forest. It's like telling your men to die."

"What... But isn't that good for the prince?

"Shut up!

Milan squeezed his lips tight enough to bleed and twisted Bear Beech's opinion. Magic powers give favors to those who possess them, but poison those who do not. Entering the magically filled White Forest is tantamount to telling you to jump naked into a sea of sulphuric acid.

Besides, this time it was only for tourist purposes, so I'm hardly ready for the fight. As a prince, I must put the people first. Milan made that decision.

"Serene, stay safe..."

Without seeing a bear-bee who had said anything, Milan issued a return order to his men. The voice of Milan, wishing Serene well, was like a prayerful tone.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

"Ko, Ko..."

Serene was trembling all over her body as she tucked into the palm of a giant dragon.

If it falls, it's definitely flying to the next altitude, grabbed by a giant lizard. There's no way I'm not scared. Did you think of the tremor as a fear of yourself, the dragon speaks in a gentle tone.

'Don't be so frightened. I'm not going to take you and eat you. I'll send you back to your hometown. That's all. "

"Duh, thanks..."

Serene managed to have a loving laugh even though she was tight. If it's a game, if a big dragon comes out, it's like, "Hyah! Big guy! It strikes me with joy like," but I don't feel alive when I'm being grabbed by a monster like a dinosaur in reality.

I'm sorry I said let's hunt. Serene reflected. I reflected tremendously. But on reflection, the reality remained the same.

"Princess! Are you safe!?

"Butler, you were coming!?

Serene had confirmed the existence of a trusted butler and was shouting less of a relief. Butler cleverly conveyed the dragon's epidermis and ran down.

'My apologies. I couldn't do anything about it. "

Butler looked remorseful as he dived his little body through the gap between his fingers and jumped onto Serene's shoulder. Milan and Bear Beech were not the only ones fighting the dragon opponents, Butler, a loyal Serene minister, was also in the fight.

While Milan and the others were fighting, Butler swung around from behind, jumping on the back of the dragon and desperately stood up his fangs, but no matter how much he was a warcraft, it wasn't even a power comparison between a dragon and a mouse.

"What, the rat? You keep it? I'm surprised you can talk."

When the dragon that was flying by cutting the wind noticed Butler with Serene screams, he whispered as if he had seen a rare object. The dragon is now talking to Serene magic at wavelengths, so he can also pick up Butler's voice, which has the same magic as hers.

"The Great Red Dragon. I am Butler, the butler, near Princess Serene. See you later. It is an honor to have this direct conversation with the rulers of the world. '

We just have to do something and look at the opportunity to escape, more than the dragon has caught us. With that in mind, Butler congratulated the dragon so as not to compromise his mood. The dragon chuckles with a huge mouth, wondering if the tiny mouse's respect isn't even right.

"Praising me is quite a sight to see. But aren't you a rat? It wouldn't be sheep. '

'I beg your pardon for the crap joke. If it soothes the ground… it is the role of those who descend.'

Butler hurriedly shut his mouth when he tried to correct the butler. I can't wait to be beaten to the ground because I'm in a bad mood.

Then for a while, both Serene and Butler shrunk themselves in the palms of the dragon, but the dragon continued to fly north and north. Less flatlands and more and more tree seas spread beneath your eyes. Even though we were talking about sending it to my hometown, the fact that it was going in the exact opposite direction also made Serene anxious and inadvertently opened her mouth.

"Ryu, here, no"

'No? Oh, you mean your settlement is a little further. Don't worry, we'll be in the White Forest soon. From there, you'll have a land survey too. "

"Settlement, Shinobu?

"Look, I can see you."

When the dragon snorted his giant head, he saw a bright white sea of trees in that direction.

The great forest we have seen so far was normal green, but it gradually stained white and looked as if it had snowed all over the forest. However, both Serene and Butler immediately realized that it was not snow and that the trees themselves were stained white.

I had previously heard that there was a White Forest in Bear Beech, but I didn't even think Serene was really a "White Forest".

'Elf's toddler. Surrounded by human adults, it would have been horrible for a long time. Did they grab you where you got lost?

"To…………?

I don't know what you're talking about. Serene thought so, blinking her eyes, but the dragon spins the words, regardless.

"I would never have a hand in an elf or a human being. I was aware you were asking me for help a few days ago. And today, I just passed near the White Forest, so I'm on my way home. It's just my whim. You don't have to thank me. '

"Me, Elf, no?

'Say what. You think I don't know you guys? Isn't that the gray hair and skin, the red eyes, the elves themselves'

"No, I'm not."

"Ah, that Red Dragon... I'm very afraid, but I really do know what Princess Serene is saying."

The Red Dragon was stationary in the air due to objections by Serene and Butler.

After a little silence, the dragon asks Serene and the others.

'... is that true?

"……… yeah."

Between one and two, an indescribable subtle air flows.

The dragon takes a serious peek in with huge black eyes over Serene's head as he brings his right forefoot in front of his head, which was grabbing Serene.

'Mmm......? Hmmm......?

The dragon frowns and observes for Serene's sake, as the short-sighted desperately identify the object. And the next moment, I opened my eyes wide.

"Ahhh! Look, I don't have any ears!?

The dragon glanced at himself in the air and was surprised as if he had seen something incredible.

The dragon's known elf has white hair, white skin, and red eyes. But other than that, he must have had long ears. But the daughter in front of you doesn't have it.

"Ki, you! You conspired against me!

The dragon was furious on its own, even though it was not touched by a backward scale.
