Episode 523
Kuwaaaa!
The one who surged up, creating a huge tidal wave, was not the radiant dragon Kaibar, but the Sea Serpent.
However, it was different from an ordinary Mr. Serpent. It was King’s Serpent, whose head and torso were twice as big as the one that ran away after being hit by Kuberud’s weapon.
As befits a monster with the nickname “Sea Devil,” it gave off a powerful and intimidating feeling.
Raon chewed his lip as he looked at the King Serpent’s fangs, which were longer and thicker than a long spear.
‘that’s right. ‘I said there was that guy.’
When Labawin told me about the enemy’s strength, I remembered that he said there was a King’s Serpent. As the monsters were pushed back, it seemed like the one hiding had moved.
“Ah….”
“Key King Mr. Serpent!”
“What kind of monster is that size?”
The sailors swallowed dry saliva as if surprised by the size of King Sea Serpent.
“No matter how big it is, it’s just a monster! Stay in your place! “You can win!”
Cuberud was not intimidated by King Sea Serpent’s huge size. He raised his wrinkled hands and encouraged the embarrassed sailors.
Whoa!
King’s Serpent only lightly moves his tail, but a fierce wave hits. The defensive line created by the twelve battleships shook as if it were about to break.
“Shoot!”
The crew moved under Kuberud’s instructions. His movements were slow, as if he had not yet overcome his fear, but he accurately fired his weapon against monsters.
Piaaaaa!
The harpoon and hook made by Kuberud pierced the king’s serpent’s thick scales and pierced its flesh.
Blue blood poured out, but the wound was not deep. As it was large, the flesh and skin seemed thick.
“Kiaaaaa!”
Mr. King Serpent screamed and raised his tail. The sharp scales were so thick that it looked like a mace.
“Hmm….”
Raon placed his hand on the blade of the Jecheon Sword while looking at the shadow of King’s Serpent’s tail reflected on the battleship.
‘You can’t stop that.’
If Labawin was there, he would have been able to stop it, but now he was fighting a life-threatening battle with the leader of the Sea Warriors on the sea. It seemed like there was no one who could stop it now.
“I will go.”
Aris shook her head as she pulled out her sword and tried to stop King Serpent’s tail.
“No we are not moving.”
“But…”
“Didn’t the old man tell you when he was going out? We should only look at the light dragon. “This is not our battlefield.”
She even crossed her arms as if she would not move no matter what happened.
“King’s Serpent is attacking!”
“Get ready!”
“Wizards to their positions!”
As if they had the same thoughts as Aris, all the sailors on the battleship looked in this direction and did not ask for help.
Even though they harbored a fear of monsters, they knew that they had to solve it themselves.
Coo coo coo coo!
In the end, Mr. King’s Serpent strikes the blade’s tail. It was just a simple gesture, but it had the weight of a mountain in it.
Whoa!
Just as King Sea Serpent’s tail was about to split the blue wind, a translucent light emanated from the center of the twelve battleships. Considering the flow of mana, it seemed like the shield magic had been maximized.
Wow!
The king’s serpent’s tail collided with the mana membrane that the wizards had stored in the ship, and a storm-like shock swept over the son-in-law.
“Keeeeee!”
Mr. King’s Serpent stepped back as if embarrassed, but the shield protecting the battleships also shattered like a thin window.
“Ugh….”
“It was only once….”
“Damn it!”
The wizards’ expressions are not good. It seemed hard to believe that the shield had broken in just one impact.
“Now is the time. “Pour it all out!”
Kubarud realized that now was his chance to capture Mr. King’s Serpent, and ordered all weapons to be fired.
The broken defense lines turned their bodies and fired the loaded harpoons and hooked spears at King’s Serpent.
Paaaaaaaa!
Dozens of weapons advanced like beams of light and lodged themselves into King Serpent’s body.
The wound was wide open as numerous weapons were stabbed into it, but because of its enormous size, it was neither close to death nor to the point of loss of strength.
“Kiaaaaaaa!”
On the contrary, King’s Serpent seemed to have lost his temper and started screaming and struggling like crazy. The ropes attached to the harpoons were pulled and the battleships shook as if they were about to sink.
“Keep your focus!”
“Secure the boat!”
The captains of each battleship tried to hold on by connecting their ships with mana lines and chains, but the King’s Serpent’s power was too strong.
Coo coo coo coo!
Twelve ships began to be towed by King Sea Serpent.
“We must break the bar ropes and chains!”
“Can not be done!”
Kubarud shook his head at those who tried to cut the harpoon’s rope.
“If the line is cut, that guy will attack at will and we will all die!”
He was reading the flow of the battlefield as if this wasn’t his first fight.
However, King Sea Serpent, as infamous as the sea devil, forcibly lifted his tail even though his body was being controlled by a harpoon.
Without any chance of stopping, it swung its tail towards the battleship on the far right.
Kwaaaaaaaa!
The battleship split in half and began to sink into the sea like wet paper.
“Aaaah!”
“Some monsters are coming!”
“Shit! “Why are you here?”
“help me!”
Sailors who escaped instant death cried out for help in the sea.
However, the monsters’ claws were faster than the hand of salvation extended from the other ship.
Kiaaa!
Marine monsters that live in the sea, such as Sharkmaul and Rain Lizard, tore the sailors’ flesh and crushed their bones.
“Shoot!”
Cuberud forced his head to turn and fired his reloaded weapons.
The target was so large that this time the harpoon and hook were pierced into King Serpent’s body, but he did not fall, only gushing out blue blood.
“Kiaaaaa!”
King Sea Serpent roared and spewed out black clouds from his fangs. As it headed towards the battleship on the left, it was larger and faster than the poison cloud of the Sea Serpent that it had initially chased away.
Wooooow!
The yellow steel plates of the battleship cannot withstand the poisonous cloud and a hole is formed. Eventually, the battleship itself began to dissolve in the miasma.
“Jump, jump! “If you continue like this, you will die from poison!”
“Ugh!”
“Damn it!”
The sailors jumped into the sea or onto other ships before the ship melted. Although the poison was avoided, cracks appeared in the defense and the monsters began to run wild.
“Huh…”
Raon bit his lip as he looked at the dying people.
A child younger than a toddler was stabbed to death by Sharkmaul’s fingernails, and an old man who appeared to be older than Glenn collapsed with his flesh torn off.
The lives of the warriors who came here, valuing revenge more than countless other values, were coming to an end.
As I walked this journey, I came face to face with all of them, and even though I knew I had to endure it, I couldn’t stay still.
“I know, but it’s hard to bear…”
Assassin Raon would have endured it without difficulty, but since he lived this life and knew the value of people, it was difficult to remain still. My hands were shaking.
“Still, hold on.”
Aris shook her head, saying not now.
“You have to endure it.”
Her lips were trembling as if they were cold. It seemed like he was suppressing his anger and sadness over the situation where he couldn’t move.
‘okay. ‘You must be worse than me.’
It was only after I set sail that I met these people who are now dying.
However, to Aris, they are subordinates that he personally accepted. It was natural that she had a harder time.
-There are quite a few thieves.
Lars looked at Aris and twisted his mouth.
-The King hates those who abandon his men, but this thief is right.
‘….’
-Lizards may be nothing more than meat to you, but to you humans, they are nothing more than natural enemies. If you are not prepared, you will be annihilated in an instant.
‘I know.’
Raon sighed and lowered his hand that was holding the sword of Jecheon Sword.
“Ahh…”
Injured people began to appear from above Cheongpung. Nuan, who was moving according to Kuberud’s instructions, was stabbed in the shoulder by Balas’ rusty spear.
“Nuan!”
Maureen rushed in to save Nuan, throwing away the hammer she was holding.
“Keuuk!”
However, since he had not yet completed his martial arts training properly, he was struck by a spear in his thigh and rolled on the floor.
The two children, who looked younger than toddlers, said they had risked their lives to come here to see Gwangryong, who had destroyed their family and village, die.
It seemed like I would die before I could achieve that dream.
“Damn monsters!”
Cuberud seemed to think that the strategic instructions were meaningless, so he picked up a sledgehammer and blocked the children’s path.
Balas, not missing the moment when his hand was shaking from fatigue, thrust the spear.
Whoa!
A rusty spear was stuck in Kubarud’s waist. However, he held on to the spear and did not let go.
“You can’t go behind me!”
It was a fierce battle on the deck of the battleship, and the number of monsters was much greater, so no one had free hands.
Cuberud also seemed to know this and did not ask anyone for help or look towards where Raon and Aris were.
“Ugh…”
Raon gritted his teeth and looked at Aris, but she never moved, with her hand on the sword.
‘Be patient. If you just hold on a little longer….’
As I used the ring of fire to force myself to control my insides, Mr. King’s Serpent raised his head.
It was so powerful that the ropes and chains on the hooks broke and the battleships rocked.
“Kiaaaaa!”
Mr. King Serpent opened his huge maw. Poisonous air pours out from the blackened throat.
If it falls like this, the entire ship will melt.
“….”
Aris even closed her eyes as if she had no intention of going forward this time.
Fuuuuuuuuuuck!
Just as the poison cloud was about to engulf the ship, a huge aura exploded in the air.
Whoops!
More than half of King Sea Serpent’s head flew off and fell into the sea. The biggest wave ever spread.
Oh my!
A strong sword wind blew over the ten ships along with the ferocious waves, splitting all the monsters apart.
It’s Lavawin. After smashing the heads of the leader of the Sea Warriors and King Serpent, he returned and bowed his head in front of Aris.
“I’m home.”
“…late.”
Aris let out a low breath and raised the corners of her mouth.
“sorry.”
Lavawin lowered his head. He, too, was covered in wounds all over his body, as if he had been through a tough fight.
“I will lead again.”
He pulled out the spear lodged in Kubarud’s waist, gave it a light sweep, and then climbed up to the upper deck.
“Mr. King Serpent is dead! “Save the drowning people first!”
He prioritized saving lives and wiped out the marine monsters that flocked to the sea.
Coo coo coo coo!
As the sailors of the battleship threw ropes to save the drowning sailors, bubbles spewed out again from the sea where the King Sea Serpent had fallen.
Rather, a bigger trend occurred than when King Mr. Serpent first came out.
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
The sea surface seemed to explode and a bridge similar in size to a battleship rose up. It has eight legs with a disgusting number of suckers and a head with horns that look like blades embedded in them. It was a huge sea monster, the Kraken.
“Ah…”
Raon let out a sigh as he looked at the Kraken.
‘Is the Kraken here?’
I thought Kaibar would appear this time, but I don’t know why Kraken appeared.
I couldn’t understand what he was thinking when all the monsters were dying.
“I’m in charge of the Kraken! “All battleships take out the monsters!”
Lavawin couldn’t even breathe properly and gathered the aurors. It was the moment when he was about to tear off the Kraken’s leg with his sword.
‘uh…?’
An enormous cold wave stirred in the deep sea beneath the Kraken.
It was very secretive. If it weren’t for the Ring of Fire and Glacia, I wouldn’t have felt
“Raon.”
Aris uncrossed her arms and placed her hand on the sword. Her eyes flashed with an eerie light.
“come.”
Raon quickly shook his head.
‘My sense was right.’
The light dragon Kaibar was moving in the depths of the sea. He was throwing Kraken and other sea monsters as bait and was trying to annihilate everyone here with his breath of cold.
Aris and Lars were right. If he had been participating in the battle, he would have turned into a block of ice and died without knowing anything.
Cheeeeee!
Raon pulled out the Jecheon Sword and the Requiem Sword and ran towards the Kraken. Aris was already moving forward.
“uh?”
Labawin, who was moving forward to catch the Kraken, looked back and widened his eyes.
He seemed to be so focused on the Kraken that he didn’t feel the cold of the ocean floor.
“No way…”
“Take all the battleships and retreat!”
Aris nodded and moved forward.
“We will take over from now on.”
Raon gave Labawin a look to thank him for his hard work and then stepped on the Taehwabo.
Oooooh!
The moment I stepped into the sea, the entire surface of the water began to turn blue.
Pudddeuk!
As the sea freezes, the marine monsters submerged in the water lose their breath. The breath of death that freezes the soul at the slightest touch. If it spewed out like this, not only monsters but also humans would be annihilated.
Cheeeeee!
Aris steps in the air and strikes. Colorless, flickering auras and thoughts twisted the space.
Oh my!
The space sword she unleashed cut Kaibar’s surging cold breath in half, but the aftereffects still remained.
Hwaaaaa!
Raon wrapped the cartoon ball around both the Jecheon Sword and the Requiem Sword. The fire dragon’s breath extending from both blades at the same time collided with the breath of cold that was trying to devour the world.
Kuwaaaaaaaaaaa!
Cold and heat collided at the sea level, creating a terrifying explosion. White steam rises throughout the ocean. It was more than just the fog of the sea warriors.
“Ugh….”
Raon bit his lip. As the dragon’s strongest attack, the breath of cold penetrated through the high water resistance. It felt like my bones and flesh were frozen.
‘Still holding on!’
There’s no point if you don’t hold on here!
In order to save many people, I just watched others die. If I couldn’t do anything, there was no reason for me to exist here.
Coo coo coo coo!
Raon radiated all of the manga ball’s amplified energy through the ring of fire.
The flame on the sinking blade spread out like a bird’s wings and melted all the surging cold.
Hwaaaaa!
In the end, Kaibar’s breath of cold was unable to kill a single human and died, freezing only the Kraken and monsters.
But Kaibar’s offensive is not over yet. This time, a powerful flow of mana was felt in the sea, as if the magic was about to explode.
“Everyone get back!”
As soon as Lavawin’s cry was heard, dozens of lights erupted from the turbulent sea.
Cheeeeee!
Aris aims his sword at the sea. The moment the red blade distorted space, the magic rising from the sea split diagonally.
Coo coo coo coo!
Even though he was cut before jumping out, the purity of Kaibar’s mana was so strong that a huge shock wave began to explode from inside the sea.
‘This time…’
Raon used Glacia and stretched out his two swords. The ice flowers growing on the silver tree blooming above the blade spread out into hundreds of petals.
It was Hwaryeong unfolding with the energy of frost.
What a bummer!
The pieces of cold sank like cherry blossoms and froze the sea surface, significantly reducing the power of Kaibar’s mana explosion.
“Huh…”
Raon let out a rough breath and looked at the frozen Kraken that had exploded.
‘I’m glad I endured it.’
If you were distracted by King’s Serpent or Kraken, you would have been annihilated by their breath or magic.
Thanks to the advice of Aris and Ras and holding on until the end, I was able to block the wild dragon’s vicious attack.
“good job.”
Aris smiled softly as if she believed him.
“If you can’t even do this, there’s no point in coming here.”
Raon let out a shaky breath and looked back. Fortunately, according to Labawin’s instructions, the battleships stayed far back.
Coo coo coo coo!
Not just the waves, but the entire ocean began to shake.
Its presence is on a different level from King’s Serpent or Kraken. The whole world seemed to be screaming.
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
A magnificent shadow spread as if the moon was rising above the sea surface, and its endless neck rose into the sky like sunlight setting on a lake.
“Ah…”
Raon swallowed dry saliva and raised his gaze.
‘That’s Kaibar, the bright dragon.’
The scales flashed with a mysterious light as if they were covering the sea, and the neck that the scales surrounded was as thick as the sailboats here. It was so long like a royal road that it was difficult to see with the naked eye.
The fin of the fish stood like a blade above the neck that seemed to touch the sky, and it had the majesty of a work of art.
Coo coo coo coo!
Khaibar bends his neck, revealing its head. Diamond-shaped eyes towering over thick scales that seemed to withstand even strength, blocking the sun. The world became dark as if night had fallen.
What was unusual was the horn. Unlike the right horn, which looked like a spire, the left horn was broken in half.
However, it seemed to show his madness even more.
“This is…”
Is it Kaibar, the bright dragon?
As Aris said, Kaibar’s size was beyond what humans could do. It seemed like even if I stretched out my strength endlessly, I wouldn’t be able to cut off his head.
-Hmm, I feel like I’ve seen that lizard somewhere before…
Lars looked at Kaibar and smoothed his chin. I thought he was going to say something strange again, so I ignored it.
“It starts now. “Concentrate.”
Aris let out a low breath and tightened her grip on her sword. She too was squinting her eyes as if she was nervous.
-Anyway, you’ve gained a lot of weight.
As expected, Lars’ shenanigans began. It was a crazy sound that didn’t fit the situation, but thanks to that, the tension eased.
Wow!
Khaibar roared at the sun. As if the sea was being crushed, the surface of the water sank, and a terrible storm rose up and blotted out the sun.
For a moment, I couldn’t hear any sound, as if my eardrums had burst from a loud roar.
[Insects!]
Kaibar’s head, which was glaring at the sun, turns downward. The reptile’s harsh eyes bent towards Raon and Aris.
“Hmm…”
Raon’s fingertips trembled.
‘Is it a dragon?’
The voice itself seems to contain the power of a proverb, and a fear that seems to be squeezing my heart seeps into it.
However, it was not to the point where I couldn’t bear it, perhaps because I had endured the force of other demon kings and Glenn.
“What’s with the lizard that was so scared of that bug that it attacked me by surprise!”
Raon shouted, hitting his trembling chest with his fist.
“Raon?”
[….]
Aris’ eyes widened and Kaibar’s gaze turned towards this direction.
“They said it was a bright dragon or something, but in reality, it was just a dull lizard.”
An arrogant voice rang out from Raon’s mouth as if Lass had come out of it.
[There is no need to justify the bugs that bring threats to this world.]
Disgust and murderous intent began to bloom in Kaibar’s eyes.
“That would be you. “It is you who collapsed the city and destroyed nature!”
Raon chewed hard with his molars. I saw so many corpses in the collapsed Aikar, and I felt angry at him saying such things.
[human. I have similar eyes to that guy.]
Kaibar’s pupils also narrowed as if he was disgusted with himself.
“That guy?”
[Do you know?]
The guy tilted his head back. The sun, which had been obscured by that alone, came down and the storm was pushed aside.
[Only humans can bring the demon king of the demon world to this land.]
“….”
Raon did not answer.
‘That’s…’
I’ve seen many stories of humans’ bad emotions summoning the demon lord, and there was an actual target next to them, but I’ve never seen another race summon the demon lord like he said.
“So what!”
Aris also narrowed her eyes as if she hadn’t heard anything else.
[Only the dirty emotions of humans can summon the devil who upsets the balance of this continent. That’s why you guys are no different from the pests of this continent.] As
Kaibar’s voice gets louder, the waiting room hums and vibrates. I felt like my ears were going to fall off.
[And the Demon King is someone who should never exist in the entire dimension.]
-That cheeky lizard is going after him!
Ras looked at Kaibar and shook his fist.
“You speak as if you have seen the Demon King in person. “In my view, you are more unnecessary than the Demon Lord.”
Raon looked at Lars and twisted his mouth.
[That’s probably because you didn’t see the Demon Lord.]
Kaibar’s eyes gave off a chilling coldness.
[Devil. The Blue Demon King killed my compatriots who worked for the balance of the continent…]
He gritted his teeth as if he was remembering that time.
[The corpse was roasted and chewed. If you haven’t seen the brutality of pure evil, shut your mouth!]
“Ah…”
Raon’s chin trembled and his eyes rolled to the right to look at Lars.
‘The reason that dragon became a light dragon…’
Was it because of this guy?
White breath flowed from Kaibar’s snout. It seemed as if coldness was naturally coming out due to anger.
[The guy broke my horn while trying to save his people, and even taunted me by saying he would eat me if I grew bigger and came back! Anyone who summons a guy like that should die!] When Raon heard those words, he shook his chin in confidence
.
‘That’s right.’
This insectivore was caused by the Demon King….
