635. [Side Story] Dragon Slayer (3)
Armor is equipment directly related to life.
That’s why the Tustibean raid reward materials are the top priority when making armor. It’s because they desperately need good armor to withstand the dragon’s attacks.
However, armor alone cannot win the war.
In the end, you need a powerful weapon that can cut off the dragon’s mighty and tough life.
Thus, a weapon made from the magic core – the essence of Tustibean – the dragon heart and his symbol, the fangs.
That is this dagger [Isagem Lee].
As it is made with the dragon’s heart and its symbols, its power is beyond imagination. It is a powerful weapon with the potential to transcend the ending level line at once.
“…”
Just.
As if the armor made from Lord of the Flies magic core is actually a Nightmare Slayer.
This dagger forged with Tustibean’s magic core was also a dragon slayer and a nightmare slayer.
Because these evil dragons were also resurrected from nightmares. It’s because it has power that is not pushed at all by other nightmare corps commanders.
So this weapon also has terrifying power comparable to other Nightmare Slayers, and at the same time… it
also harbors the evil intent to plunge its owner into darkness.
“Ah…”
Belldandy reached out for the dagger as if possessed and said,
“Berdandi. for a moment.”
I caught her hand in the air.
Belldandy stared at me with a ferocious gaze. Her eyes were already covered with a vivid golden light – the majesty of the Absolute, and she could no longer see the green color they had before.
“Why are you like that? It’s my weapon. Right, Ash?”
“…”
“If I had this dagger, I would be able to end the life of any monster in one fell swoop… If you give me that kind of role, I’ll gladly fulfill it.”
“Berdandi.”
Belldandy is the strongest assassin among my heroes, the legitimate successor to the fairy royal family, and even a Chosen One who was chosen by a tribal god.
She’s already qualified. All she needed was a weapon capable of killing dragons – the Dragon Slayer.
With this dagger in hand, she is a powerful dragonslayer… able to slay the dragons beneath the lake.
“If you give me this dagger, I will wipe out all the monsters down there. Until we exterminate them without leaving a single one left, until there is peace in the world, I will be the hunter who annihilates them at the bottom of that lake forever and ever.”
“…”
“So hurry up and give me that weapon and give me orders… That’s what you’re here for, Ash-sama?”
okay.
came for that
The remaining four dragon raids – Black Dragon’s Wings, Noon Sunrin, and the main body of the Black Dragon.
In this subjugation, Belldandy should play a big role. There are things she is the right person for and only she can do.
But but…
“Just promise me this, Belldandy.”
We are commanders and soldiers, but we are allies and friends.
We’re all stepping into the dark to stop it… but I still want you to keep the last humanity.
“Don’t forget the important things.”
“yes?”
“I like the people and the place. Do not forget everything that was important to you and try to remember it.”
“…”
Belldandy’s face was that he couldn’t understand.
I laughed bitterly. Even when I say it, I want to say something old-fashioned.
But… the intuition I had as a commander on this hellish frontline was telling me.
I have to tell you now.
That we should light a candle inside her.
“Don’t forget everything that holds you dear.”
I picked up the wooden box and handed it to her.
“…”
Belldandi grabbed the handle of the dagger [Isageum] at once.
The black evil energy that was about to leak out was crushed by the gold and green that radiated from her grasp and lodged inside the dagger.
“Don’t worry Ash.”
Showing complete control of the evil dagger, Belldandy vaguely raised the corners of his mouth.
“Because elves have good memories.”
“….”
I smiled lightly on my face and took out another pouch from my pocket and gave it to her.
“And this is from your hometown. It was delicious.”
A bag of sunflower seeds that this rodent species has always loved.
Belldandy smiled as he took his pocket, bowed to me once more, and I nodded in the face and left the seat.
After walking away from the South Gate site, I looked back and saw that Belldandy was still sitting there.
In front of the stump of the dead tree from which he had removed his dead brother with his own hands.
He didn’t even open the bag of sunflower seeds in his hand. Looking at the dagger in the opposite hand.
***
North of Crossroads. The Army of the Principality of Bringer.
When I handed over the Lord of the Flies armor [Owner of the High Tower], Dusk Bringer obviously jumped up and refused.
“please! from your thoughts! do some! No matter how you look at it, this is your armor!”
“It’s a matter of efficiency, Archduke.”
I knew that Dusk Bringer would come out like this, so I calmly laid out the reasons why she should wear this armor.
The difference between the performance potential of the armor and the effectiveness of the support armor The role that Dusk Bringer should play in the dragon raid in the future Her strategic importance To the point that my safety, which everyone is worried about, has already been secured… Let’s talk nonstop for about 30
minutes In the end, Dusk Bringer surrendered by tearing his hair out.
“Stop, I know, stop! I know you can’t win by talking, so stop!”
“Then the Archduke wears this armor, right?”
“Not right now. Right now… ehh.”
I smiled and took out the armor from the handmade box and put it on Dusk Bringer.
While waiting on me, Dusk Bringer gave me a complicated amber look.
“But is there any reason for you to wear it?”
“Wouldn’t it be nice to have a cute nephew dress for you?”
“Sounds like a nephew, maybe a great-grandson…”
I put all the armor on the duke, a girl who looked like a grumbling distant relative.
Finally, to put on the helmet, she had to take off the silver crown she was wearing.
“…”
Dusk Bringer wriggled with the broken and restored crown in his hand for a moment with mixed emotions, and then set it aside.
He also wore a helmet with a halo-shaped crown attached to it.
“Hoo.”
Equipped with a full set, she looked down at her body in admiration for a moment.
“Where…”
As she closed her eyes and concentrated, the halo portion of her helmet emitted white light… and her armor resized.
Charleureuk!
The helmet tightened to fit the size of her small head, and the chains disassembled and reassembled in perfect order.
After a while, Dusk Bringer spun around in place, wearing a nice black coat that fitted his body.
“This is an interesting piece of armor. It seems to have some hidden features. Above all, I can feel the clear darkness.”
“Are you all right?”
“of course. This much darkness, this much curse is ridiculous.”
Dusk Bringer laughed bitterly.
“The darkness and curses that Gwain has committed are by no means shallow.”
“….”
“Don’t dress well, Ash. And as much as I wear such good armor, I will play an active part in the vanguard of the front line.”
Then, Dusk Bringer gave me a worried look.
“And I beg you, as the head of the front here… take care of yourself a little more.”
“….”
“This is a mantra as the head of an allied force belonging to your alliance. listen seriously got it?”
“I understand, Archduke.”
I nodded.
“I don’t want to die either. I will take care of my safety first.”

“…As you say that, it seems that you are giving away all the armor called armor to other subordinates.”
Lucas looked at me with sad eyes and said.
At the forge, armor made of Tustibean’s leather and scales began to be produced, and since mass production model samples were secured, Lucas’s new armor, [Black Linn], was also about to return to the owner.
As he finally puts on his new armor, Lucas gives me a worried look.
It must have been because my name was not on the list of mass-produced armor.
I was stunned and laughed out loud.
“Why is everyone so worried like a child who left me at the water’s edge? Don’t worry, I’ll take care of myself. And how many emergency kits do I have? Let go of your worries.”
hey! I’m a system user! Do you know the status window?! Status! If you shout, the system interface pops up in front of you! If I have several times as many cheats as you, I will have them, but not enough. Stop worrying.
“…that’s probably why everyone is so anxious.”
Lucas, who was wearing all of his beautiful black scale armor, sighed.
“The battles in the past have been difficult, but this Black Dragon subjugation… the pressure felt from the bottom of my heart is different.”
“…”
“In the meantime, it was just a fight against a hideous and evil monster. But this time, it’s like fighting a being above the clouds. It really feels like pointing a sword at God.”
“I’m afraid?”
“I was always afraid to be afraid. However, if it was enough to calm the trembling of the body in the meantime, should I say that the soul trembles in front of the dragon.”
I was a little surprised by Lucas’ honest confession.
Lucas, who always threw himself into the front lines, was actually fighting his own fears and… this time, he felt more fear than that.
‘My [Indomitable Commander] prevents mental abnormalities.’
But apart from that, all of my heroes have battled their inner fears.
The dragon is different from the monsters of the past. Night Bringer, the head of the Black Dragon Corps, is even more so.
Can we really defeat that transcendent being… Everyone must be having similar concerns.
“after. That’s good.”
After putting on [Black Lin], Lucas straightened his posture and looked into the mirror.
It’s a very good armor that can’t be pushed by Evangeline’s [Snow White].
In the game, these two final armors were very popular with ruckduck users with real white and real black coloring. It has a beautiful appearance and excellent performance.
‘Why does the old [Midnight and Twilight] set and Ribble’s armor all belong to Lucas?’
Since the black dragon corps equipment was all black, the overall color scheme of the heroes was becoming dull. There is cool
“Lord.”
At that time, Lucas said to me with his back to me, but with his blue eyes shining in the mirror.
“Please give me permission to use [Excarnival] in future battles…”
“Yeah~ Absolutely not.”
I flatly refused. Lucas immediately sank with a ‘burdock’ sound. Where did the kanji from a moment ago go?
“…”
Lucas’ exclusive weapon [Given Sword] is very good equipment.
Infinite durability and increased attack range have the same compatibility with Lucas’s own skills. It is perfect as an end device.
However, it does not have destructive attack performance like the magic sword [Excarnival] recovered from the fallen king. That is also true.
Right away, Lucas’s sword attack in the Tustibean raid had a hard time tearing his scales.
Lucas must have felt that stronger attacks were needed to defeat the remaining dragons. That’s probably why he asked for permission to use the magic sword.
‘Of course I know.’
If the worst situation comes, I will take out beast shoes or X-Carnival and use them.
But when that situation comes, it must be me who orders its use.
It must be me who orders the right-armed knight to wear darkness. Not of this guy’s own will.
Because that’s what I’m responsible for.
‘More than anything else, this guy abuses it too much!’
If I let them go, it’s clear that they won’t take care of me and will use them endlessly.
“The use of the magic sword is prohibited anyway! This story is done.”
After one more nailing, I took out the list and looked at it.
“Let’s see the avant-garde character with less dragon slayer armor and weapon settings…”
It’s time to leave for the next raid. Equipment settings are urgently needed, but the heroes who are still unfinished
…
I glanced at Lucas.
“Hecate.”
“…!”
“Both of them are refusing to give us equipment. Whether you’re scolding or persuading, you have to put it on and hear it.”
I commanded the hesitant Lucas.
“I’ll go to Quylan, so you go to Hecate.”
“…When are you talking?”
I smiled. Then Lucas smiled awkwardly.
“Right now you bastard!”
The next raid is right around the corner, so when, when, come out quickly!
