【Catch the intruder!】
The Dragon King’s voice shook the tower. As the light faded darkness fell again on the world that had been bright for a moment. Ronan roughly brushed her hair and swore.
“Because you’re really unlucky.”
The worst situation that could be imagined happened. I never thought I would be caught by the Dragon King himself. Asher who was breathing heavily opened his mouth.
“What should I do now? huh?”
“We have to escape this damn tower first.”
“Uh where?”
“They said the sewer was fine so we can go there. For now…fuck it!”
Sensing a threat Ronan rolled to her side holding Asher in his arms. The ceiling above her shattered and a large sword flew out. Kwasik! The weapon which seemed capable of beheading an elephant pierced exactly where the two men were. Asher screamed at the sight of the sword shining next to her ear.
“Hyaaaaaak!”
“I have a good feeling. “I was confident that I was good at catching mice.”
A voice came from right above. When he raised his head he saw a girl through the crack in the collapsed ceiling. Looking at her pure white hair it was Luko Force. Why is this crazy bitch so fast on her feet?
“But can this also be prevented?”
She smiled and grabbed the hilt of her sword. The pattern engraved on her greatsword began to glow.
I don’t know what it was but it didn’t feel right. Ronan reflexively pulled the hilt of her sword and fired a stab at the ceiling. Wow! The sword energy fired from the tip of the sword passed through the gap and hit the girl. A small lump of anticipatory energy dug under her chin broke through the top of her head and came out.
“Gagging…!”
dump. The girl fell down. Blood and brain fluid flowed through the cracks in the broken ceiling. At that age Lycopos must have been quite a strong man but the lesson that there was no business in surprise and inattention struck me once again. Ronan said looking back at Asher.
“Can you walk now?”
“Uh huh…!”
Asher quickly nodded her head. As time passed she found strength returning to her amazing legs. Ronan who was looking at her blankly shook his head.
“no. “Now that I think about it you have short legs so it would be better for me to just carry you and run.”
“That kind of thing!”
“It doesn’t matter if you use magic anyway. “Let’s leave before more come.”
Ronan attacked Asher again. He remembered the examiner telling him to run to the sewers if things went wrong. I don’t know where it is but I have to get out of this fucking tower to have any chance of survival.
The car was just about to leave. Asher suddenly stretched out her hand and chanted her incantation. Kwajajajak! A wall of ice rose from the floor blocking the stairs leading down from the upper floor. He stuttered.
“I thought this would be helpful.”
“good job.”
Ronan laughed. Come to think of it I Sonia also came up like this blocking her escape route. They almost fell down the stairs. I had to run away before more people came.
“okay. “It has to be like this.”
Ronan went downstairs and shouted in joy. Perhaps because not much time had passed yet it was empty. The Milky Way was embroidered in the night sky beyond the large window.
“Good. Please Asher!”
“Uh huh!”
Ronan shouted. He and Schlieffen ran at full speed and jumped out kicking down the window. Wow! The shattered glass shards sparkled in the moonlight.
The night wind was roaring in my ears. The bodies that were hovering began to fall. Asher was trying to cast a telekinesis spell in a crying voice. Whoa! A huge shadow rose from beneath their feet and stopped in front of their eyes.
“what?!”
【You were here.】
Ronan took a deep breath. A familiar woman’s voice rang out. Ronan’s eyes widened as if they were about to pop out. The three people’s foreheads were turned upside down by the terrifying wind pressure. A silver dragon was flapping its wings in place.
“you…!”
It was a dragon so beautiful that it made me forget the fucked up situation for a moment. The scales covering its slender flowing body were shining gray-white reminiscent of steel. A sigh escaped from Ronan’s open mouth.
“Naransonia.”
【I can’t believe I’m repaying His Majesty’s favor in this way. You must have made up your mind.】
Naransonia said. Steel armor began to be placed over her body. Ronan cursed as he realized what was going to happen next.
“What the fuck…!”
Ronan took up a defensive stance against her. She circled a huge lot and Sonia who had retreated rushed towards her group. It was unbelievable how fast it came from that big guy. pop-! A belated sound exploded into the night sky.
“Ma Mana Shield!”
Asher urgently chanted a defensive spell. Three or four layers of translucent membrane blocked her and the group. What looked sturdy was a very well-made protective shield.
However the dragon’s hand-to-hand attack was much more powerful than they thought. Kwajangchang! The moment the shield touched Naransonia’s forehead it shattered as if it were a cracked pine board. Ronan shouted.
“Schlieffen!”
“hmm.”
Ronan quickly switched her core. Schlieffen tugged at the hilt of her sword. Quaaaaaaaaa! Naransonia crashed into the wall of the Sky Tower along with them.
widely. Polymorphing into her human form she steps out. Thick dust covered the completely destroyed 42nd floor. Sonia who suddenly felt pain frowned.
“Ugh….”
A thin stab wound was crossing his shoulder. The blood running down her arm was dripping onto her fingertips. It was done by a man named Schlieffen.
“In the meantime you’re counterattacking….”
Sonia muttered to herself about how amazing she was. Even though she had not strengthened her scales it was amazing that she was able to capture it and she tore off the dragon’s scales anyway.
She said ‘Did you say it was Grancia’s bloodline?’
If she had lived she would have been a great prosecutor but she was a waste. As she looked around for her body her eyes stopped on a certain place.
“Hmm?”
There was a human shadow in the dust. Wow! A crescent-shaped sword flew through the smoke and passed by her right cheek. Blood flowed from the cut. Her face which had always been dull became slightly distorted.
“I never thought you were alive.”
Whoa…! The night wind that came through the broken wall blew away the smoke. The new forms of three humans and a dragon were revealed under the moonlight. Among the humans Ronan was the only one standing.
“You bitch. “I really… almost fainted.”
“What did you do? “It seemed like the trajectory was a little distorted at the end.”
“Whew…you don’t need to know that.”
Ronan raised her middle finger. Her overloaded heart was beating frantically. The moment before the collision he switched cores and activated the auras of Varen and Terranil at the same time.
By strengthening his muscles and generating shock waves he was able to offset the impact to some extent. Of course I couldn’t stop him from losing one or two ribs. He pointed to Asher and Schlieffen who were lying down.
“What are we going to do with this?” “They are some of my few friends.”
“If you had just stayed quiet this wouldn’t have happened. Or stronger.”
“How can we condone something like that being done at the top of the tower? Lady your king is crazy.”
【How dare you say such a thing…!】
Suddenly Naransonia’s face distorted. It was an incredible amount of loyalty. Ronan answered harshly.
“Why are you so upset? So is it a sane person’s move to join hands with fanatics because they want to win against Navarre? And with those bastards whose goal is to destroy the world?”
【If that is His Majesty’s will we will just follow. Outsider. That’s not something mortals should be involved in either.】
“You said the world was going to end so you fell asleep saying you were mortal. “You can’t do that.”
Ronan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. Anyway I couldn’t get out of here until I defeated that dragon. He raised his sword and aimed it at Naransonia.
“Go for it. A dragon with only her face smooth.”
【what….】
Sonia flinched as her eyes met Ronan’s. She was blooming with a life-like spirit that made it hard to believe she was human.
【…You are full of courage.】
And Naransonia felt extremely angry about that. Even if only for a moment I never thought I would be intimidated by humans. she shouted in her angry voice.
【Even though I didn’t cause the injury!】
Kwak-ga-ga-ga-gak! Hundreds of steel spikes rose from her feet and rushed towards Ronan. The thorns which were strengthened with mana had a bluish glow. It was not a technique used to suppress Orsay but rather a technique to kill the opponent for sure.
Even in the face of the torrent of steel Ronan did not make a fuss or run away from her. She just waited for them to get close enough. It was the moment when the gap narrowed to less than ten steps. Pot! His figure holding the sword in an upright position disappeared from sight. Naransonia raised her eyebrows.
【uh?】
I didn’t see her move. It was like seeing a candle that had suddenly gone out. For a moment the steel thorns that were advancing without hesitation stopped for a moment.
‘what?’
With her excellent eyesight she noticed that all the spines had white lines on their surfaces. What is that? The question was just about to rear its head. Ronan who had disappeared appeared next to her.
“after.”
Naransonia took a deep breath without realizing it. Ronan appeared out of nowhere bending one knee as if she had landed from a great height. It was at that moment that she regained her composure and was about to throw her fist. Kaaaang! The lines drawn on the thorns widened and exploded.
【what…!】
Naransonia was astonished. The menacing thorns turned into helpless pieces of iron and danced in the air. Her gaze accidentally caught Ronan’s sword and she paused. The pure white sword body was covered in blood that wasn’t there before. Ronan said.
“There’s nothing that can’t hurt you that much.”
【you.】
Naransonia’s eyes widened. It was at that moment that I realized whose blood it was. Sigh! A red line was drawn across her chest and her blood spurted.
【Gagging!】
Blood spurted out like a fountain soaking the floor and ceiling. thud! Sonia fell to her knees reeling from her actions. My vision which had become blurry was soon swallowed up by darkness. Ronan sighed in relief when he saw that she wasn’t waking up.
“…thanks. “Lin.”
[you’re welcome.]
Rin’s voice echoed in her head. La Mancha’s sword body where the soul of her holy sword had awakened was shining in a soft white color. The fatigue that resonated with her holy sword was coming.
Naransonia was a strong enemy. The title of Empress of Steel was definitely not undeserved. If Rin hadn’t woken up after smelling her blood she wouldn’t have been able to guarantee victory.
[What do we do now? The situation doesn’t look very good.]
“I have to keep going. “You have to hide yourself first.”
Ronan answered her his voice laced with fatigue. She wanted to collapse and sleep right now but she didn’t have time to do this.
“Wake up… you bastards.”
Ronan staggered and approached Asher and Schlieffen. Before she knew it Schlieffen had come to her senses and was breathing hard with her upper body raised. he said
“…did you win?”
“okay.”
“I can’t believe I was unconscious for this long. “You have no shame.”
Schlieffen gritted his teeth. It was the most disastrous expression Ronan had ever seen.
“How is it that you didn’t drool or urinate? “We got hit by a dragon.”
Ronan grinned and held out his hand for hers. Schlieffen stood up supported without a word. He too knew that there was no time to delay.
“Then let’s leave. Asher wake up.”
“Uuuh… Ronan?”
“It doesn’t look like you’re hurt anywhere.”
Fortunately Asher opened his eyes before he was slapped. Ronan pounced on him again.
Still the floor level was lowered so much that I felt like I could go down quickly. It was a car that they were just about to take off after a simple reorganization.
“Three goodness! Naransonia!”
“It’s over there! “Everyone stop!”
A loud noise rang out from behind. Sensing an ominous premonition the three people turned their heads at the same time. Sentries were pouring in from the stairs.
“…shit.”
Ronan lifted her hand and placed it on her forehead. I ended up finishing it quickly but it seemed like the guards were well trained. They had already activated their imprint and transformed into half-dragons. It seemed like every effort was being made as the order was given in person.
‘But if it’s just sentries….’
Ronan wordlessly placed his hand on the hilt of his sword. If it wasn’t for those guys alone it would have been worth it to quickly shake them off and go. At that time the group of guards split to the left and right and two men walked out.
【Really. Naransonia suffered.】
【What did the Empress of Steel lose to humans?】
The two smartly dressed people were twins with exactly the same faces. The guards chanted their five-letter names. Ronan unable to bear it any longer cursed.
“Why on earth are you doing this to me?”
Without much effort I was able to tell that the two men were dragons. Even compared to Naransonia it is at a level that is not inferior at all.
Moreover the misfortune did not end there. People wearing white robes began to come in one by one through the stairs and the wall that Naransonia had destroyed.
“What we’ve only gone this far?”
“You’re slower than I thought.”
They were all followers of Nebula Clazier. Although the bishop level was not visible one Lycopos was included. The boy with white hair looked at Ronan and growled.
“You could have killed my sister.”
The scarlet eyes were burning like fire. It seemed that the girl with the great sword that he had killed a while ago was his sister. Ronan chewed his lips.
‘This is really too much.’
Dozens of half-dragon sentries and Nebula Clage. And there are only two dragons. I don’t think it was like this when I beat Orsay.
“Life is really….”
It was no exaggeration to say that it was a desperate crisis. No matter how hard I tried to think I couldn’t come up with a plausible picture.
The forces of evil were slowly closing in on the siege. Ronan and Schlieffen were preparing for battle side by side with their backs to the wall. Schlieffen opened her mouth.
“Ronan.”
“Why man?”
Ronan answered without turning his head. Suddenly Schlieffen put something in his coat pocket. What is this again? When he put his hand in he felt a pocket watch. He continued.
“Tell Miss Iril when you get back.”
