"Yes, it will."

Qin Che nodded, grabbed the jewelry, waved it enticingly at Skager, and then lightly leaped to a high place.

Enraged, the behemoth lowered its massive body, letting out a deafening roar, and sped through the town.

Seeing that the house was about to be crushed by its huge tail, Qin Che quickly threw the jewelry in his hand forcefully behind it.

Sensing the attack from behind, the giant beast immediately turned around and tried to grab Qin Che.

However, it failed to notice the towering arcade buildings in front of it.

It crashed violently into the arcade, nearly falling from the sky.

"Damn! How embarrassing! Bah! It's embarrassing!" You didn't forget to mock it even during the break from your fight.

The giant beast clearly did not expect to be blocked by a small arcade, let alone to be so easily mocked by a tiny human.

It glanced at you disdainfully, as if to say, "Tch, you weak human are not worthy of my fight."

It directed its anger clearly at the man who had excited it, and then opened its blood-red maw, spewing out raging flames at Qin Che.

"Now's the time!" Qin Che nimbly dodged the flames and shouted at you.

You nodded and followed Qin Che's steps. While you were aiming at Skager and firing continuously, Qin Che drew his Hero's Sword.

Skager seemed to realize he was caught in the middle and became even angrier, brandishing his claws at you.

Qin Che leaped in front of you and shielded you behind him.

"That won't do!"

"Run towards the city gate, use the Hero's Sword." Qin Che grabbed you and started sprinting at top speed.

"I can't get close!" you said as you desperately tried to keep up with Qin Che's pace.

He glanced back at Skager to see if he was catching up. "Run first."

After a high-speed sprint that pushed your physical limits, you soon arrived at the city gate. Qin Che grabbed your wrist and helped you leap onto the gate.

The dragon pressed closer and closer, and with each step it took, a crack appeared in the ground, as if it were about to tear the earth apart.

At this moment, you have run out of bullets, and the hero's sword is still unable to get close to the dragon's body.

As the dragon drew ever closer, it stepped over the scattered pebbles, raised its head, let out a long roar, and then accelerated straight toward you.

You were a little anxious and quickly reached out to grab Qin Che, trying to dodge to the side, but you heard a steady and powerful heartbeat coming from beside you.

The heartbeat was like a drumbeat, one after another, firm and powerful.

In this tense moment, Qin Che's presence makes you feel incredibly safe.

"Don't be afraid."

A deep, enchanting voice rang in your ears. Qin Che, holding you, leaped down from the high city gate.

"Yes, when you're around, the word 'fear' doesn't exist in my dictionary."

"To still be in the mood for banter at a time like this, it seems you're really not afraid."

"The city gate... has fallen..." The innkeeper, hiding inside, opened the door a crack, peeked out cautiously, and took a tentative step forward. "Did they succeed?!"

Suddenly, another roar came from behind the collapsed pile of stones.

The innkeeper stood there, watching the dragon flap its wings and fly into the distance.

"...How could this be? My cards...are always very accurate!" The innkeeper looked at the sky in disbelief. "With such a commotion, I wonder if they're alright."
