Bone King: Starting from Becoming the Supreme

“I’m very happy to hear you say that.”

Yashiro's words made Angel and Xizi open their eyes wide, breathe rapidly, and their bodies began to tremble involuntarily with excitement.

In the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick, everyone is proud to serve the forty-two Supreme Beings.

To be able to receive praise from the Supreme Being himself is an honor far more important to them than their own lives!

For this honor, no one would hesitate for a moment even if they had to die.

Yashiro looked towards the cave not far away and continued.

"However, I regret that I cannot agree to your request this time, because I cannot bear to watch you die for me knowing that there is danger ahead."

Of course—it’s a lie!

Angel possesses the strongest defensive and auxiliary abilities in Nazarick.

He also carried two world-class items bestowed by him and several artifact-level items.

In this world, even if all the top dragon kings joined forces, plus the Dark Dragon King's world-class item - One of 20, they would never be able to kill Angel.

The reason why the two were not allowed to explore the way ahead was simply because the place ahead was suspected to be the habitat of the 'Eternal Dark Dragon King'.

With Angel and Xizi's abilities, it is impossible for them to kill the Dark Dragon King.

Once the Dark Dragon King discovered something unusual, given his timid nature, he would definitely run away immediately and hide in a secret cave.

By then, it would be extremely difficult to find any clues about the Dark Dragon King.

However, Angel and Xizi looked panicked when they heard this.

"Angel, Xizi——"

Yashiro's tone suddenly became slow and gentle.

"I used to be a person with nothing, but fortunately, I met a group of very good partners. Although we often have disputes, we still created many precious memories. You are also my companions. No, now it would be more appropriate to say that you are my family.

Well, these are not important. What is important is that you are not replaceable. I hope you can feel the weight of you in my heart. "

Angel and Xizi were stunned by Yashiro's words, and were so shocked that they couldn't recover for a long time.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Ibiruai fell silent.

This man...

There is clearly no sense of magic power on his body, and apart from the nice-looking muscle lines, there is no sense of a warrior at all.

The sharpness in his body is not even as strong as that of a certain kingdom's warrior captain.

However, it was this person who showed full courage and charm at this moment.

At least, their captain, Lagis, is far inferior to the man in front of them in terms of personal charm.

"…Although this man's own strength is average, in a sense, he is no longer an ordinary person as he possesses such courage."

"No wonder even that girl who has already entered the ＜Heroic Realm＞ is so devoted to this man."

"It seems that what the old woman said is right. In this world, the person who is most suitable to be a captain is never the one with absolutely powerful strength."

"Brains, wisdom, character, courage, and personal charm are all indispensable."

Looking at the three people's backs gradually walking away, Ibiruai talked to himself.

Then he let out a long sigh.

"I've already said that, but that guy still doesn't appreciate it. Don't blame me if he dies, humph."

……

"Hey, Ibiruai, is everything you said true?"

"Can anyone really control and command thousands of ogres and trolls at the same time?"

"The only one who can do this is probably the legendary demon god, right?"

"The important thing is, is there really someone who is not afraid of death and broke in?"

"Can we really rescue them with just a few of us..."

The other four people except Ibiruai all had an expression of surprise on their faces.

Their original plan was to set fire to the cave where the ogres gathered and block the only other exit.

Although it is unlikely to eliminate all ogres and trolls.

But their goal is just to reduce the number of monsters.

As for the remaining monsters, just hand them over to the guild to issue tasks and wait for other adventurers to deal with them in batches.

However, with this happening, they certainly couldn't act according to their original plan.

Ibiruai covered his forehead with his hands, his expression beneath the mask was very conflicted.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have involved you. Something like this has happened and someone needs to inform the guild. You guys should go back now."

"So, are you planning on going back alone to rescue those guys?"

"Isn't there anything that can be done about it? You guys aren't strong enough, so coming along would only be a hindrance, right?"

Such sarcastic words, coming from Ibiruai's mouth, made the four people stunned for a moment.

Logically, they should feel angry and upset when hearing such words.

But the four of them just looked at each other, without even a hint of dissatisfaction.

The exceptionally sturdy warrior, Gagran, stepped forward and said with a smile.

"Ibiruai, you really underestimate us. Do you think we will fall for your trick? If you really think we are in the way, you wouldn't have teamed up with us for so long, right?"

"That is……"

"Really? Everyone has already seen through your little tricks."

Ibiruai looked at the other people, who were all looking at her with smiles on their faces.

Her cheeks, which were invisible under the mask, quickly heated up and she hurriedly explained.

"Who... who cares about your safety? I, I just think you're in the way here! Don't misinterpret my meaning!"

"Yes, yes~ You can say whatever you want, but if you want us to leave you alone, I'm sorry, we can't do that."

"That's right. We are companions who stand together through thick and thin. No matter what happens, we will never abandon our companions."

"Then again, Gagran has such muscular body that he can definitely attract a large portion of the firepower."

"Indeed, after all, our opponent this time is an ogre."

"Hey, what do you mean by my muscles are plump? Are you using me as bait?"

Looking at the noisy teammates in front of him, the corners of Ibiruai's mouth under the mask raised slightly.

At this moment, she seemed to suddenly understand the importance of "companions" and "family" in the man's mouth.

She turned around and spoke in the most indifferent tone possible.

"Humph! If you die, don't blame me for not warning you."

Gagran laughed.

"Yes, yes, I know. We will be careful."

"I...I'm not caring about you guys!"

"Hey, you're so cute, Ibiruai-chan."

"Yeah, cute!"

"..."

"Okay, all of you, stop teasing her. Check your props and get ready to go."

"Oh - the goal this time: rescue the stupid trio!"

"oh--!"
