258. Clash (9)
#258
“Put down your sword. “There is no hostility between you now.”
The Dragon King said. The voices of the two men and women coming from one mouth were bizarre. I thought that if I polymorphed into a human I would have two heads like an ogre but I never thought it would turn out like this.
Ronan snorted and tightened his grip on the hilt of her sword.
“How can I believe that?”
“I guess you didn’t hear Jim’s voice.”
Ronan didn’t answer. In fact he and his party were on the outskirts of Adren and did not hear the Dragon King’s proclamation. Asher who had seen the Dragon King get shot down by Duaru stuttered and asked.
“How are you alive? “You obviously…”
“The advice of an old friend and the small amount of kindness he gave me saved my life. It was a short time but a lot happened. Now the only goal of me and my subjects is to deal with that intruder.”
After saying that the Dragon King looked up at Duaru. His slightly bloodshot eyes did not show the arrogance or composure he had before.
It seemed like something had happened. Of course Ronan did not let his guard down after hearing those words. There must have been so many things that happened to me.
In fact most of the shit that happened in Adren was caused by the double head in front of me. Suddenly Naransonia who had been quietly listening to the conversation intervened.
“If it’s okay I’ll explain that part. Please allow it Your Majesty.”
“It is permitted.”
The Dragon King who heard Sonia’s request nodded her head. Her clothes were still stained red as she had been seriously injured with her wings cut off.
When we rescued her she was practically a corpse but she had just regained her strength and was barely able to blink. Her Ronan standing in the way of her group opened her mouth.
“I should first say thank you. Thanks to you her life was saved. Naransonia the steel of Valgenia expresses gratitude to you.”
“Why are you acting so strange all of a sudden?”
“Because I have to point out what needs to be pointed out. Now let me explain our situation…”
Naransonia calmly began to explain the whole story. Ronan who was listening to her story raised his eyebrows. She said her plan and that of the Dragon King were surprisingly similar.
They came here after polymorphing into humans to ambush Duaru. Although he could transform into a smaller animal it was said that that form was the best in order to kill the giants of light he encountered and save the citizens.
“Your Majesty has fully opened your eyes. “I guarantee it.”
“Aren’t you overestimating yourself? “Honestly I don’t think you are a very trustworthy person.”
“My pride is not so low that I would lie to the person who saved my life.”
“…Heng.”
Ronan laughed. Naransonia’s white-blue eyes were unwavering. Ronan who was still facing her lowered his sword.
Earlier she felt the gratitude from the dragon. It was impossible for a proud dragon who worked as the Dragon King’s closest aide to say such a thing unless he was extremely sincere.
Moreover Ronan had a record of defeating her once. After sheathing her sword he looked back at the Dragon King and said.
“Then we have the same goal.”
“yes. “I already didn’t have enough energy but it was a good thing.”
The Dragon King hesitated. Ronan’s gaze fell on the dragons behind him.
“That’s what I want to say.”
There were far more of them than it seemed. The procession of polymorphic dragons continued deep into the forest. It is said that a little over two hundred dragons all gathered together after hearing the Dragon King’s cry.
To be honest everyone didn’t look that good. It was because he struggled while suffering enormous damage from Douaru either directly or indirectly.
However their vertically narrowed pupils were burning with the fighting spirit to dispose of intruders and protect their hometown. Under normal circumstances it was a feeling that dragons who live immortal lives would never have. Ronan’s expression became brighter.
‘It might be possible with this power.’
There was a slim chance of victory. I thought maybe I could break through that fucking air defense network. While organizing the plan in his head he opened his mouth.
“I know very well that your plan is also a surprise attack. So how do you plan on breaking through that defense line? “No matter how the idiots can get through it.”
Ronan stretched out his index finger and pointed at Douaru. There were hundreds to thousands of giants of light swarming around like a cloud.
Behind him a powerful star’s protection that was incomparable to that of Nebula Clage was fluttering around Duaru. It was after all the original of the famous Bulheojeon. After a brief pause the Dragon King shook his head.
“To be honest there is none. Still if we concentrate everyone’s firepower on one point wouldn’t we be able to destroy it?”
“Damn do you want to open a skewer restaurant? “If it was going to break through like that it wouldn’t even have taken four months.”
Ronan cursed. It was recklessness proportional to determination. The expressions of the subordinates around him suddenly turned grim but the Dragon King stopped them.
“…Then you. “What do you think should be done?”
“There is only one way. “It’s very dangerous though.”
“It doesn’t matter. “Tell me.”
The Dragon King said. Orsay who was watching the scene from behind laughed. I was so shocked that my irritation at the unpleasantness of the situation disappeared.
Is that the Ajdahaka I knew? It seemed that Sonia’s words about me opening her eyes were not a lie. Ronan nodded heavily and opened his mouth.
“good. “Everyone gather around.”
A temporary alliance was formed. The main force gathered around Ronan. The unprecedented disaster known as the Descent of Duaru even suppressed the arrogance and chauvinistic tendencies that were fundamentally inherent in the dragon race. Ronan began to explain his plan as briefly and clearly as possible.
“Is that possible?”
“I’m sure it’s not a joke. human being.”
Throughout the explanation confusion erupted from various places. However Ronan’s extremely serious expression and the support of the Dragon King and Naransonia put an end to the confusion. A vicious murder blooming on Orsay’s shoulders.
“You can’t go all the way to the end. “Because we need people to take care of the situation when the floating stone is destroyed or something goes wrong.”
“Well I guess we’ll have to split the group into two.”
Because there was no time the meeting ended quickly. The conclusion was that humans and dragons were divided into two. There was a raid team to attack Duaru and a remediation team to clean up after the attack.
Kwaaaaaaaaaa! Meanwhile Douaru’s spear was hitting the floating stone. This is the end of preparation. Ronan took a deep breath and opened his mouth.
“Let’s get started.”
[It begins.]
The Dragon King’s sound echoed in everyone’s heads. Kugugugu…! At the same time the bodies of the dragons assigned to the raid team began to swell all at once. The sight of various scales covering the skin and horns growing on top of the head was quite a sight.
Suddenly another head grew on the Dragon King’s shoulder. Ronan narrowed his eyes at the sight of him finally taking the form of a dragon.
“…Where did you sell your head?”
【Paying a high price-】
【I took it off.】
The Dragon King laughed. The laughter which felt a little self-mocking showed a fatigue that could not be hidden.
He didn’t realize it when he was in human form but the wound on his side that Duaru had inflicted was much more serious than Ronan thought. It’s amazing that he can get up and move. Ronan swallowed what he was about to say and laughed.
“That’s cool.”
Ronan muttered and lightly cut his forearm with his sword. Red blood oozed out from his thin stab wound. The two people next to him took out their weapons.
****
Duaru was looking down at the ground. Every time the four wings flapped the gale that blew was pushing away all the surrounding clouds.
From the high altitude where he was located he could see the entire view of Adren at a glance. The Dragon City with flames and screams rising from everywhere was heading toward destruction.
“Gooooo…!”
“Goooot!!”
More than a thousand giants of light surrounded him like a moat. These were summoned beasts that would provide vigilance and sweep on behalf of Doaru who was focused on destroying the floating stones. New giants of light were being born from the feathers that were diligently falling off.
Kwaaaaaaaaaa! Not long after he threw the spear a loud noise rang out. Duaru glanced at the state of destruction of the floating stone and mechanically stretched out his arm.
The surrounding photons gathered again and placed the spear of light in Duaru’s hand. As he aimed at the same spot and swung his arm the spear fell like a thunderbolt and landed on the floating stone.
Kwaaaaaaaaaa! A flash of light appeared once again. When the light and smoke subsided a wider pit appeared with a slightly more cracked floating stone than before.
Now it seemed like it would break if I just threw it three or four times. The ground of Adren which was sinking was proof of this.
Light began to gather inside his grasp. It was the moment when he raised his arm while holding the long spear. A roar rang out as if heaven and earth were breaking apart.
【Kaaaaaa-!!】
Duaru paused for a moment. The movements of the light giants began to become busier. It was difficult to determine the direction as the sound came from all directions.
The car was about to fly away to find the source of the sound. Quaaaaa!! Torrents of different colors shot out from the surrounding forest. Quagwagwang! The breaths which were made up of different properties such as fire lightning and ice hit the bewildered giants directly.
“Gooooot!”
“Gook!”
It was enormous firepower. The giants who were unable to avoid or prepare for it turned into light and disappeared. A haze of flames and a wind mixed with frost were intertwined in the colorful sky. This was before the light giants even came to their senses.
【Now is the time!】
Once again a loud cry shook the night sky. At the same time hundreds of dragons flew up tearing through the forest roof. The shadows of dragons hanging in the moonlight covered the ground.
【Drive the intruders out of Adren! Protect our hometown!】
【Don’t let even one person go alive!】
Quaaaaa! The dragons roared and let out their breath again. A torrent of elements poured down from all directions and hit the giants. However this time it was not as successful as the first time. The giants who had been attacked once lined up and used each other’s bodies as shields to block their attacks.
“Gooooooo!”
The giants roared. The outlines of their bodies were distorting violently as if expressing anger and then coming back again and again. Although their numbers were reduced through surprise attacks there were still countless giants remaining in the sky.
【Kaaaa!】
“Gooooooo!!”
Neither of them slowed down. The dragon knew that circling around and firing its breath would have little effect and the giants had no reason to just back down. In their bare hands a spear knife made of light was held.
【Kill them all!】
Mahacadia known as the second fastest dragon in Adren folded its wings and increased its speed. The hand-to-hand combat began with her unicorn piercing the chest of a giant.
Kwaaaaang! Two forces clashed in the sky above Adren which was about to end.
