249. Clash (2)

【…Adren.】
Red Dragon Bnihardo opened his mouth. It was an incoherent muttering as if possessed.
Her body was defiled with her bodily fluids and internal organs spilled by monsters from her outer universe. The various liquids flowing down the tips of her wings were sticky like the saliva of a cow in heat.
Nonetheless her red scales were shining beautifully. Even though it was covered in dirt it did not lose its shine just like a ruby that had fallen into the mud.
It was proof that she inherited Navardose’s blood. The elf next to her Irani Ellema Tion tilted her head.
“Are you suddenly homesick for Adren?”
【I didn’t say I wanted to go. It’s just… something ominous.】
Bni Hardo nodded her head. She didn’t know why her hometown which she normally had no interest in suddenly came to mind. It’s a place she only spent a short time in when she was young.
“If you really care please take the time to visit. “We will be blocking this place.”
“You’re saying things you don’t mean. “How can I go after seeing something like this?”
Bnihardo snorted. Her eyes scanned ahead. A huge translucent curtain stretched between them and deep space. It was a star armor that protected them from threats from outer space.
Inside the star armor the corpses of all kinds of monsters were piled up. There were literally a mountain of corpses all of them horribly shaped so much so that it was difficult to move or see.
【I don’t know how long I have to do this. No matter how much it is Hwaryong’s request.】
“Still isn’t it perfect for wasting away a long life? “I’m still okay.”
“Rorotaruta. “Get me some cigarettes over there.”
The immortals mainly dragons and elves were enjoying a short rest. The place they were in was Drimoor a fortress built on the border between heaven and heaven. In this place the only bulwark against the enemies of outer space today was another busy day.
The star’s armor was getting thinner day by day. The number of cracks and monsters increased and now at least double digits of people had to stand guard. Like now when Navarroje was sleeping even more personnel were deployed.
‘I don’t know if that kid is doing well.’
Bnihardo suddenly remembered what happened with Ronan and laughed. If he had been sent to the front lines he would have been willing to do the work of three or four people but I was curious about what he would be doing now.
As she lowered her gaze a star shining like a blue bead caught her eye. Home of all immortals and mortals. What is it that people are flocking to because they like it so much?
It was the car in which she was immersed in various thoughts.
“Here we come again!”
【this.】
someone shouted. She clicked her tongue and looked ahead of her. A black tsunami was coming from far away in the darkness of space. The identity of the ceaselessly rolling waves was a collection of countless monsters.
“The number is considerable…Shouldn’t we wake up Navardose?”
【it’s okay. It’s the first time you’ve slept in a month so you should get some rest too.】
Sighs erupted from everywhere. It was the largest number I have seen in a while. There was some way to handle it but it would be a lot of trouble. How many times should I blow fire this time? It was the car she had estimated while watching monsters.
‘…What is that?’
Suddenly Bnihardo’s eyes narrowed. Something shiny was quickly approaching the black tsunami.
The white and long tail was reminiscent of a comet. Her eyes which she had ignored as she thought it was just another celestial phenomenon opened wide.
“what?”
Even though I was probably 100000 steps away I could see it clearly. The group of monsters was scattering. It was an urgent yet coordinated movement like a flock of sheep avoiding a wolf.
‘They are the ones who don’t run away even after being hit by their mother’s fire?’
It was a sight that was hard to believe even when I saw it. It seemed she wasn’t the only one wondering. The most famous immortals from all over the world were also captivated by the strangeness of the comet. A man with a mustache walked forward.
“I’m curious. “I will go and see.”
“Wait a minute I don’t know what this is but wouldn’t it be better to be careful?”
“I am Taklamakan. “You idiot.”
When Iraniel stopped him the man blurted out. After a moment’s pause Irani El shrugged his shoulders and walked away. Although he was a courageous elf he lacked the courage to stop the Earth Dragon which had once destroyed two countries.
The Earth Dragon Taklamakan stepped out of the Star Armor. Now there were cracks everywhere so there was no need to move to find a passage. He was just about to polymorph into his original form. Suddenly a corner of my vision became brighter.
“uh?”
People all turned their heads. The light emanating from the comet was getting stronger. The eerie white color swallowed up all the light of other celestial bodies forming the concept of day in a pitch-black universe.
Bnihardo who felt ominous was about to say something. Paaaaang-!! A shock wave exploded around the comet. The flash of light expanding in a circle was reminiscent of ripples in a lake. The monsters swept away by the waves of light were torn apart.
【What…!】
There wasn’t even a gap to let out a deathly scream. Bnihardo sighed. The expanding shock wave reached the front of the armor. Kwaaaaang! The intangible power that shot out like a wave struck the star armor.
【Ugh!】
“What the fuck happened!”
The world shook. Confusion erupted from everywhere. The overwhelmed men were unable to call out the names of their comrades who had gone beyond the barriers. Eventually as the light faded such silence fell that you could even hear the sound of the moon rotating.
The first to speak was Bnihardo.
【…Taklamakan.】
One by one people opened their eyes and froze. Taklamakan who came out of the Star Armor had changed to his true form and was dead. A huge spear made of light was stuck deep in his chest.
“giant…?”
Iraniel chanted. A giant pure white from head to toe was standing over his gigantic corpse. The two pairs of wings sprouting from its back were as beautiful as sculptures. The same white light that the comet emitted was radiating from his body.
“What?!”
“Protect the wall!”
Soon confusion began to spread like wildfire. Although they destroyed all the monsters in outer space they never seemed to be allies.
The immortals quickly took up a fighting stance. The unidentified giant was staring at them without saying anything. Irani El who had been silent opened his mouth.
“…Bnihardo.”
【okay.】
Bni Hardo nodded his head. He could tell what each other was going to say without having to say it out loud. One by one the hesitating immortals began to rush towards the giant.
【Call your mother. immediately.】
she said The giant’s body slowly rose into the air. Particles of light gathered inside his open palm and a long spear began to form.
****
【Do you think they will leave it that way!】
Orsay roared. Adren was shaken by the resounding voice. With his four wings fully spread he looked like a flower blooming in the sky.
“It came out on top of the other tower!”
“How did we get there!”
The attention of the dragons who were on guard around the tower was focused. I couldn’t even imagine that it would strike from the inside. They hurriedly turned towards Sky Tower but Orsay had no intention of being disturbed.
【I’ll kill you!】
Orsay twisted his body in the air and began to descend vertically. His movements were reminiscent of a hunting bird of prey.
The three people including Ronan gritted their teeth and lowered their posture. Quaaaaa! A strong wind was blowing with the force of tearing off the skin on his face. One corner of his mouth quirked up.
“I’m killing you…!”
“Hiyaaaaaaa!”
It was a really boring situation but for some reason I found myself laughing. Asher’s desperate screams were swallowed up by the wind and disappeared.
The gap with the top of the tower was narrowing very quickly. The Dragon King who saw this shouted in an angry voice.
【Crawl on the floor-】
【You don’t know the topic!】
At the same time the three heads of the Dragon King opened their mouths simultaneously. Three suns once again appeared inside the wide-open maw.
【Disappear.】
The third head spoke as if making a sentence. At the same time the shape of the sun collapsed and three rays of light shot towards Orsay.
However since it was not a surprise attack this time there was still room to attempt an evasive maneuver. Every time Orsay changed his direction three beams of light passed over the bodies of him and his companions.
The flickering rays of light were brightly coloring the night sky. In front of Ajidahaka’s breath which was strengthened by the power of the stars Asher’s ice armor was as good as cotton candy.
【Rat-】
【There is no such thing!】
But no matter how powerful it was if it didn’t fit it was okay. Orsay was dodging all the beams of light by a single sheet of paper.
Unable to bear it anymore the Dragon King changed his strategy. The gazes of the three heads focused on one place and the rays of light merged into one. Paaaa!! A halo of light that became several times more intense covered my vision.
“…It’s dangerous.”
Schlieffen gritted his teeth. It was the same technique that almost got me hit the first time. Asher’s screams became more intense but Orsay did not stop. He increased his speed and rushed towards the beam.
“Gyaaagh! “You die!”
“What are you going to do you crazy guy?!”
Ronan who was worse off also swore. In this case he had no time to open a route.
I was just about to lament being on the back of this psychopath. Wow! Suddenly it seemed like black energy was covering Orsay’s body and the surrounding scenery changed.
“What?!”
“This is…!”
Ronan’s eyes widened. The breath suddenly disappeared and the Dragon King’s huge neck and torso occupied the front of the field of vision. Suddenly my stomach had a slight cramp. It was a side effect of being caught up in spatial magic.
“B blink…!”
Asher soon realized the situation and was astonished. Orsay had traveled a short distance with them. A torrent of light threatening to engulf the world was passing above his head.
【Dirty tricks…!】
The third head lowered his gaze urgently. But Orsay had already reached his chin.
As Asher stuttered and recited the spell a thick shield surrounded the occupants. Quaaaaaaaaa! When Orce finally arrived he collided with the Dragon King at the same speed he had descended.
【Gagging!!】
The Dragon King’s massive body swayed greatly. All three heads spit out blood from their mouths at the same time. The size of the two dragons was about the same as that of a man and an elephant but Orsay’s monstrous strength ignored even the gap in weight class.
“Kwaaaaaak!”
The world the group sees has turned upside down. Thanks to clenching my teeth beforehand I was able to avoid chewing my tongue. Three of the five layers of defense were shattered upon impact. Ronan shouted.
“Jump Schlieffen!”
Schlieffen did so without answering. Ronan followed immediately. There was a gap of about 10m from the floor but this was okay.
“Please Asher!”
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu of!”
Asher quickly nodded his head. Unlike the other two he did not jump off Orsay’s back. He tried to add strength by joining his shoes and Orsay’s neck with ice.
It was a plan planned in advance before clashing with the Dragon King. There was no doubt that Orsay was strong but the Dragon King was a difficult opponent. If Asher served as assistant there would be at least a chance of victory.
【Kaaaa!!】
【How dare you tell Jim-】
【You made me see blood!】
Six wings and four heads were tangled like vines. Orsay was biting his neck which had grown on the right side just as they had done. The Dragon King who hesitated at first was soon able to maintain his balance and engage in battle.
The fight between the two giant dragons was no longer an area for sword-wielding brats to get involved in. Crack! Ronan and Schlieffen landed on the floor almost at the same time. Nebula Clazier’s followers dressed in white surrounded them.
“These blasphemous bastards…!”
“I guess the will was written down.”
They were all angry with their faces turning red and blue. Although the goal of completing the ritual was achieved he seemed to feel anger at the very fact that his work was interrupted.
Ronan and Schlieffen naturally turned their backs to each other. Ronan said.
“Don’t be discouraged this time.”
“That’s what I’m going to say.”
Schlieffen answered calmly. The wind was blowing around the sword that had already been drawn. Ronan snorted and pulled the hilt of his sword.
The swordsman had his own job to do.
