Chapter 147. For a solo escape (2)
Kwak-kwak!
Aura’s cutting power was applied to blasting.
It heated up the space and rushed through it.
It pierced the dragon’s shoulder in one blow.
“…Big!”
The Red Dragon Solitas screamed involuntarily.
It was pierced through the shoulder so quickly.
A hole 50 cm in diameter was formed.
Of course, it was a small hole compared to his overwhelming size. It was also a shoulder, so it wasn’t even a life-threatening wound.
In terms of a person, it was just the wound of a pencil or ballpoint pen stuck in the shoulder.
But just because a wound doesn’t die doesn’t mean it doesn’t hurt.
It hurt.
I was truly in excruciating pain.
Born as a proud dragon of this land, Solitas had never been hurt this much.
Solitas’s mouth fell open at the unknown (?) pain he had experienced for the first time in his life.
There was no time to sleep and do nothing.
“Geuaaaagh!”
I was about to burst into tears.
I desperately wanted to find my mother.
I couldn’t remember anything about recovery magic.
“Ouch! Whoops!”
Embarrassed, I backed away dozens of meters.
A cold sweat broke out between the scales of his body.
‘What kind of people are there?’
It was embarrassing.
I didn’t understand.
Solitas’ gaze turned to Xaviel.
‘Is that a human?’
Obviously right.
I couldn’t find any traces of other dragons polymorphing.
So, he was a pure, purebred human, but he pierced his own shoulder with a single toothpick-like sword.
‘If the attack had just landed somewhere other than the shoulder….’
For example, what if it flew to your head, neck or chest?
So, what if there are holes in the middle of the forehead or pores?
“….”
It wouldn’t have ended with just being sick.
You must be in a much more serious predicament than you are now.
‘I don’t get it. Is this possible? that guy is human i am a dragon But a human pierced my shoulder in one blow?’
Anyway, if I wrote this as a novel, I would immediately be ridiculed for saying it was nonsense.
But that nonsense turned into reality.
The embarrassment and bewilderment that comes with the pain.
Another emotion that slowly blooms.
I was getting angry.
‘dare.’
Tsupaaaaaa!
Red Dragon Solitas’ eyes changed.
At the same time, his huge body was engulfed in pure white light.
Powerful healing magic was activated.
The penetrating wound in his shoulder healed in an instant.
However, pride was not restored.
‘Do you think I can survive this kind of humiliation!’
It spread its two wings as huge as cliffs.
They rushed forward, creating a gust of wind that would blow away even the house.
The floor was crushed with every step he took, and the entire dungeon shook.
The entire head, which seemed to have been magnified hundreds of times as a battering ram, was swung. It swept away the space where Xaviel was.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-!
The total length of the neck and head was well over 40 meters.
It was a blow loaded with astounding power to support such an overwhelming size and weight.
The floor cracked.
The wall was smashed.
The ceiling collapsed.
In a single blow, part of the plaza inside the dungeon was completely destroyed without a trace.
However, Solitas did not stop the onslaught.
A man who has pierced his own shoulder.
That’s why the human who threw his pride in the water.
It was because the hateful human easily dodged his attack.
“Such a flea!”
Whoa!
Like an eagle chasing a fly.
Like a polar bear chasing snowflakes.
Solitas swung his wings and limbs furiously.
It stirred its head and neck, kicked the ground with its hind legs, clawed the air, and whipped its wings to create a storm.
It was a vividly living scene of destruction.
The square inside the dungeon collapsed and was crushed in real time.
However, Xaviel was never caught.
I avoided all of the Red Dragon’s ferocious series of attacks.
Like a mosquito that appeared at the bedside on a summer night.
Like ultrafine dust that penetrates through the mask filter in winter.
I evaded and evaded all of Solitas’ attacks.
It’s also very leisurely.
“….”
Xaviel felt a bit embarrassed.
I am short of breath.
That dragon’s attack is so well understood.
As Xaviel dodges Solitas’s slashing forepaw, a sudden thought came to his mind.
‘Is that dragon weak?’
Or are you strong?
I was confused which one.
But one thing was certain.
It was that dealing with that dragon was not as difficult as he had worried about.
‘Definitely worth fighting for.’
Xaviel smiled faintly.
The angry dragon is rampaging like crazy.
It is pouring down destructive attacks with its enormous size and weight.
Still, it wasn’t too scary.
It wasn’t particularly burdensome.
The dragon’s attacks were fast and devastating, but he was faster.
Even if the dragon’s phenomenal range of attack, befitting its enormous size, pressed, there was always a gap to avoid.
All I had to do was dodge it.
And all I had to do was insert a counterattack into the dragon’s loophole.
Tadadat!
kicked the ground
Soared into the air.
The huge tail of a falling dragon.
narrowly escaped.
A roar erupted from below.
Debris flew along with the smashed floor.
Hundreds of deadly fragments of rock.
I read the speed and trajectory of all those fragments in an instant.
sensation and reaction.
continuing like water.
I stepped on the seven pieces of fragments that were attacking me in succession.
It changed direction seven times, kicking and stepping on it as if climbing stairs in the air. No, it ran through the air. and fired blasts.
right!
The repulsive force of the blast pushed the whole body away.
The body that was running through the air stopped in an instant.
fell off
In front of the nose, the dragon’s paws also fell and passed by.
Whoa!
The dragon’s gigantic front paws barely passed through itself.
Seeing that, Xaviel naturally stretched out his sword.
caused an aura
Tsushaat Kagagak!
A scratch was engraved on the dragon’s front paw.
Five scales were cut off.
Blood splattered like a large jug pouring out.
“Ah!”
Solitas, who cut his little finger in an instant, shrank his front paw.
It was so painful that I burst into tears.
But Xaviel had no mercy.
Snap! Ska Cak!
It landed on Solitas’ wrist.
He lowered the sword loaded with aura without hesitation.
Three lines of blood were drawn on Solitas’ wrist.
“Ah!”
I hurriedly brushed my front paws.
He ran his other forepaw through his wrist.
However, Xaviel had already completed his leap and landed far away on the ground.
‘What the hell! Wow!’
Solitas was going crazy and jumping.
I think I can now understand the suffering of humans waking up on summer nights and struggling like sleepwalkers trying to catch mosquitoes with their bare hands.
No matter how much you swing your front paw.
Even if you hit it with your tail and shake off your wings.
Even if it sweeps and destroys all the space around it like that.
I just couldn’t get a hold of that little human.
‘Is that the Sword Master I’ve only heard of? No, you’re so different from the sword master human mom told you about? I mean, it wasn’t like that anyway. I think that human is much stronger than the sword masters in the story?’
In shock, Solitas had no choice but to admit.
He is no match for a melee battle.
No, even with magic.
To that silver-haired man, he was just a huge punching bag.
Even the toughness is good, and even the taste of hitting is just a chunk of meat.
Then there is only one conclusion.
‘Let’s run away.’
Solitas was determined.
Pride as a dragon?
I was on the verge of dying if I stayed like this.
No matter how wild he was, he couldn’t seem to catch that human.
On the other hand, that person was inflicting serious damage on himself.
So if you go long term, you will eventually lose.
I hate to admit it.
I had no choice but to admit it.
‘Because life is far more important than pride!’
He was a bright self with 9,000 years left to live.
However, I didn’t want to die here in vain while stretching out with my fleeting pride.
‘Does your pride feed you? It’s wise to live realistically!’
So let’s run away
Let’s bounce before we get further upset.
Let’s make a new dungeon in a more secret place.
So let’s get revenge after building up our strength.
‘In 50 years or so, that’ll be enough. At that time, that human will be old and weak. That’s why I torture him so that he can neither die nor live, and pay for today’s disgrace.’
Once you’ve made a decision, you have to move right away.
Solitas immediately put the escape plan into action.
The first button was breath.
“You arrogant human! die! uhhhhh!”
Whoaaaaagh!
shouted menacingly.
He took a deep breath.
The breath that filled his lungs was mixed with the dragon heart’s mana.
An aura like deterioration colored his breath.
At that moment, he exhaled with all his might.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
A breath of flame of hellish heat poured out.
It attacked the silver-haired human who was avoiding the dishonorably.
But Solitas was not happy.
The breath is just a trick.
Solitas executed the next step of the plan he had in mind.
‘Now!’
Wow!
I quickly moved Mana Heart.
The artificially manipulated array of mana was overwritten.
At the same time, his huge body changed rapidly.
Shaaaaaa….
A mysterious light enveloped his body.
Eventually, when the light disappeared.
Solitas took human form.
It was a special magic polymorph that could transform into any race in the world.
‘Okay, I’m going to get out of this gap.’
Now, the appearance of the huge dragon was nowhere to be found.
There was just a tall, red-haired young man.
As such, after completing Polymorph, Solitas moved secretly.
I ran with all my might toward the exit of the dungeon.
‘Come on, a little faster!’
Before the aftermath of the breath I just shot subsided.
before the silver-haired human found himself.
We have to get out of the dungeon.
As soon as you go out of the dungeon exit, you must escape with space movement magic.
That was Solitas’ escape plan.
‘shit. It would be nice to be able to use space movement magic right here…!’
Solitas grumbled as they raced toward the exit.
Space travel magic.
A wondrous magic that literally allows you to jump through faraway spaces at once.
However, I couldn’t use it in this dungeon.
It was because the magic circle that interfered with space movement was meticulously installed.
‘You’re like the stupid me from 50 years ago!’
When I made this dungeon, I didn’t know that something like this would happen.
It never occurred to him that he would abandon the dungeon and run away from someone.
It was just like other dragons creating dungeons.
A guide to making dungeons that I learned from my mother.
Or an exemplary dragon trend dungeon.
I made this here with reference to it faithfully.
It focused only on preventing intruders from outside.
So, I meticulously laid out the space movement obstruction magic circle.
‘shit! shit!’
Space movement cannot be used because of the obstruction magic circle.
If you use it carelessly, all the coordinates will be tangled and twisted.
In the worst case, a catastrophe may occur where the entire body is disassembled and transmitted separately.
Knowing this fact better than anyone else, Solitas ran even harder. towards the dungeon exit. for the dream of survival. He ran with only his own two legs.
And I ran into a nightmare-like human.
“Dragon?”
“…!”
A silver-haired knight appeared in front of me before I knew it.
The sword is already pointed at this direction.
He tilts his head and asks questions.
However, the eyes looking this way are already full of confidence.
You are that red dragon.
But where are you running so fast?
Solitas responded irrationally.
“I’m not a dragon?”
“….”
The silver-haired knight’s expression hardened.
Solitas felt regret as he felt his sixth vertebra tremble.
He just replied that even thinking about it, he looked like an asshole.
He said he shouldn’t have had red hair that made him look like Polymorph.
But it was already too late.
The silver-haired knight raised his sword.
He strode toward me and aimed at his neck.
Solitas had a hunch.
‘I got hit.’
I was driven to the outside water.
There is no time to return to the body now.
If you do, your head will be cut before you can even transform.
Even if you resist with magic, there is no chance of victory.
As soon as you move the mana, your head will be cut off.
What if you launch a surprise attack with a sudden hand-to-hand combat?
That, too, would have been all without an answer.
‘Even when I fought with my body, I was no match, but now even more….’
There will be no odds.
‘Even if I was a thousand years older.’
I wouldn’t have suffered from someone like that.
Solitas lamented and felt his own end.
I prepared my final resistance to the approaching silver-haired knight.
Rather, let’s self-inflict.
ate a bad heart
The dragon heart moved slowly.
Changed the layout of mana inside.
So that all the mana you hold collides.
Let that collision lead to a devastating explosion.
Prepared and prepared to sweep the whole area.
And finally, when the silver-haired knight came three paces away.
‘now!’
The young dragon bit through its molars.
I gave strength to the final trigger for self-destruction.
At the same time, a drop of tear was held in the corner of his eye.
‘It’s unfortunate.’
From now on, I’m going to explode.
I will meet my end side by side with that hateful human being.
I can’t even get married like that.
I’ve never been able to date a woman.
Going on a date while holding on to your paws, taking you to a dungeon and kissing you, exchanging love letters telepathically, wiping your lips with whipped cream breath, proposing to you on your knees, and then crossing the peak of a mountain in embarrassment.
I have never had such a sweet experience.
A single bachelor from birth would become a dragon ghost.
It was embarrassing to think about.
It seemed like a loud cry would burst through his trembling eyelids.
No, it was actually the moment when tears were about to start flowing.
“Hey, Dragon-sama over there? Would you like to listen to my proposal for a second? Then you will be able to get married within 10 years.”
Suddenly, a sweet, enticing voice came from somewhere.
