dangerous way to choose dragons

The sunlight coming in from the blinds that I forgot to close last night told me that I missed breakfast.

The faint pain awakened the mind, and it turned into a strong pain on the way. This feeling was the hangover that Yakenjel experienced again after a long time.

Even if you can catch up, you don't want to go to the cafeteria!It's not like that, I'm still in a bad mood.

In addition, on the small bed that was only big enough for one person, the red-haired Dragon King fell asleep facing him.

He couldn't get up due to his hair being suppressed. Hearing the regular snoring of the Dragon King next door, he shifted his gaze to the top of the table.

There, it became a forest of empty wine bottles.

Although due to poor health, after drinking some, the memory is broken.

Although I understood the almost bottomless drinking capacity of the incarnation of the dragon from Ulan Pok, but I was surprised by Saifad who drank most of the extremely high concentration of distilled alcohol, and the recklessness of myself who drank with him .

My throat is dry and I want to drink water.

"King Yan Lie. I'm sorry, can you move your body?"

"Hmm, um—?...Is it morning? Let's get some sleep."

"Throat is dry. You can't move because you are lying on my hair."

"Ah---. So, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

The half-awake man apologized in a vague voice, and slowly stood up.

The orange hair seemed to be covered with gold, and was illuminated by the morning light, shining like the sun.

The strong upper body covered with strong muscles is a man who takes fighting as his daily life, but there are no scars that represent warriors.

The ability remaining after the incarnation of the phantom beast can be healed as soon as the body is injured.For fighters, it is an excellent ability like a dream.

Although there are not many scars on Saifad's body to give "decoration", it can definitely be understood from his breath. ──Thinking about boring things with a hangover aching head, I picked up the unglazed cup and drank water directly.

"Hmm, big brother beauty seems to have had enough sleep, isn't he hungover?"

"Yes. But it seems that your race doesn't have one, and now I feel uncomfortable with the glass that has a strong smell of alcohol."

"You're so venomous. Let me explain, because it's troublesome to transport you to the room when you're asleep, so I let you sleep on my bed."

I really don't understand if I don't say it.The man who slept with him made a proper explanation for himself, which was really ruthless.

Reached for the cloak on the back of the chair.

"I'm sorry to trouble you. I'll go back to my room to rest for a while. Most of them went into your stomach. I'll ask you to dispose of those empty bottles."

"It's really bad to say that, can you find a way to restore your spirit with the recovery spell of holy magic?"

"Don't use it because of the unhealthy state caused by your own depravity. Users of holy magic must strictly measure their own spirit. I can use holy magic now after leaving the church. In addition to memorizing spells and having corresponding magic power, it is A relationship with self-denial.”

"Kenji, what?"

Imagining Yan Lie Wang, who narrowed his amber-colored eyes and looked suspicious, and his expression after telling the meaning, he naturally smiled.

"To overcome one's own nausea and desires. That is to say, the self who hesitated amidst many temptations finally overcomes desires. That's what it means."

"Wow. That's not okay. I can't use holy magic. But I don't want to use it anyway. It makes me feel bad. The god you believe in is really asking for unreasonable things! Although I think Big Beauty is very suitable for abstinence, but excessive patience is harmful to the body.”

"However, if I don't have the heart of self-denial, I don't live like this. Fighting with the feeling that I want to kill myself, the long and severe... At that time, it is almost a desperate battle!"

Yakanjel, who was pointed out by Yan Lie Wang about his serious heart injury before, was able to calmly talk about the wound in the past conversation, and it was incredible.

It was only two years ago, but it seems like a long time ago.

"So you hate yourself?"

"Yeah, I don't like it very much. I was abandoned by my father, and my mother didn't love someone who was worthless, but no matter how tragic things I encountered, I still wanted to live. I always have an inferiority complex that I look down on──I always deny it. look at yourself!"

"Your heart is a double-edged sword for you. It sounds~ you seem to be in a good mood? Then, do you like yourself now?"

"No, right. Say it quickly, let's talk~" Saifad's smile can be heard in the voice.

Yake also answered with a smile.

"Yes, thanks to you."

"Ah, it's a good change. Hey, if it's a smile like this, it won't be talking about your ancestors being vulgar..."

"what?"

"...Hmm. Oh, it's another story. But, when drinking alone, I keep thinking about..."

For a man who often blurts out without thinking, it is rare to hesitate.

Don't urge him to wait for him to make up his mind to export.

"...I'm going to kill the Sorcerer King."

Unlike decisive words, the tone is weak.

Even though he is a swearer of another dragon king, if he wants to kill him, he will still feel rebellious.Not to mention, the misfortune of the Demon King's hostility to the existence of the world began with the oath of the Fire King.

"Magic battles used to be a matter of heart. Little Maotou couldn't kill that guy. It's hard to say that, but it's hard for you. The magic power is evenly matched, but the gap between the attack power of the magic used and the actual combat experience is too big."

"Indeed. As far as magic is concerned, it is impossible to deny his title of "King of Demonic Ways"."

"Among the ancestors that can be summoned by magic, I am the only one who can deal with the power of the Demon King. For the ancestors before me, I am afraid I have to rely on myself."

"Didn't you choose Dragon King?"

"It's just that dragons come from the blood of the king alone. The blood of the silver dragon does not have a good balance of magic power."

Considering the ancestor of the dragon kings, the ancient dragon of silver, the silver dragon in Saifad's mouth should refer to the dragon king who traveled to other worlds with the fairies 4000 years ago.

"However, after you, I know that there are King Thunder Fang, King Jelly and Ur, have kings been born continuously during these 1000 years?"

"That's because of my strong magic power, almost all the selected kings are related by blood. Ah, the beauty brother is really annoying now! Admirable foresight!"

Regarding the somewhat contemptuous tone, Yake asked with a suspicious look.

"What kind of forethought?"

"Is it possible to divide the world of the same nature into two and avoid such an unnatural state as a catastrophe? Is it possible to last forever? And even if you find the "lost secret method" to separate the world, you need to be able to activate this spell powerful magical power, right? And the number of human beings with magical power is rapidly decreasing.”

"I noticed that. It's because I can live without magic. There are royal families that boast the blood of the holy king, and there are royal families without magical power."

I hope that I can establish a unified kingdom by myself. If the political marriage between the royal families of various countries is no longer carried out, the magic power will disappear sooner!

"So, it is almost the responsibility of the Eudemons. I thought that if the balance collapses during the chaos, many dragons that are slightly better will be bound in advance with my oath!"

"Of course, it would be a forethought to have anticipated this. It's beautiful, interesting, and practical."

"Oh. The beauty brother is usually very poisonous when he explains the truth?"

"Because of bad personality!"

After being seriously counterattacked, the Dragon King who fell silent for a moment, roughly grabbed his gorgeous hair with one hand, and took a deep breath.

"I didn't expect this to be so serious and nasty. Sigh, the topic has strayed to another direction?"

"Is it about killing the Demon King? Whether it's you or Ur, if you do it directly, it will stain the Dragon King's hand. I don't agree. Killing the ice king's swearer, you and Ur will be deeply hurt. I don’t want the dragon king who sacrificed for mankind to make this painful decision, and I can’t obey it. It’s my responsibility as a human swearer to stop him. What to do, think of a way now.”

"It was that guy who kept thinking of revenge, but he still wanted to die."

"I don't think so. If you really want to die, why not commit suicide? When I threw the "Sworn Spear" at Ur, Ur was already dead, and I would commit suicide on the spot. Dandario The unhappiness that will continue until now, I love her as if she died.──Ur said it before. The Sorcerer King feels the meaning of life from the destruction of the world. It doesn’t matter if you succeed in destroying the world, whoever is in the middle It doesn't matter if you stop it or get killed, it's the same as letting yourself die. As long as you can enjoy the fun in the process, that's fine!"

Saifad shouted angrily after listening to the explanation of the young man who is the grandson of the Demon King.

"What a disgusting guy. What do you think of the lives of phantom beasts and other humans!"

"My dragon is dead, so I don't know what to do in the future. I understand that feeling too. But the Sorcerer King chooses to live in despair, but I choose a different decision to die. You want your descendants to choose people with a high sense of fraternity as the oath If you are the one, why don’t you use the oath to bind it first.”

"Understood. But I'm already dead, so it's useless to think about it. Now I'm here thanks to the little boy's possession magic. From the standpoint of borrowing my body, it doesn't make sense to complete it."

"Still can't change back to Ur?"

"That's right. The brat understands your worries too! If you still haven't changed back by the afternoon, then head to the headquarters of the sect in the religious capital.

"Huh? Why did you say that suddenly?"

"Just imagine, it would take three days to fly back and forth from here to the church. In addition, you are not very safe. If you add a day to the guards over there, it will be exactly the same as the number of days left for me. Four days? It is impossible to know what unsettling things will happen to you during the four days of competition. The situation that cannot be changed back after four days has passed, and the days of changing back this time will be lost. If you are flying with you , It will be troublesome if you suddenly change back to a small hair and degenerate. On the other hand, if you keep worrying about this, it will be troublesome if you never get out.”

"...If we leave today, we won't drink. Please come back this afternoon, Ur."

The young man's voice was dark and filled with resentment.

The Dragon King on the other side spoke brightly with a false tone.

"What? If the hangover flies in the sky, will you spit it out?"

"I don't do that kind of thing!"

"Oh? For my own appearance and energy? I will talk to the old priest about the situation and see what happened to the letter to the church. By the way, let me know about the departure in the evening, and say good night by the way."

Yake glared at the man who was amused by his obvious embarrassment, but the mood of the big red cat was getting better and better.

Considering the old age of Priest Bass, there may be no chance of seeing each other while alive in the future.If you think so, both parties should try to stay as long as possible.

Yakenjel, who was abruptly told by Safad to leave, felt sorry for parting for the first time.

When I went to King Guang's tower, I heard about the Guangxi army who wanted to get the secret treasure and the evil spirit that was always growing. At that time, the sense of crisis took up most of my thoughts.

After successfully obtaining the "lost secret method" that controls the fate of the world, I feel more relaxed!

As a result, because of the bass that the great priest was working on, he couldn't spare much time to talk.

Thinking about the timing of our reunion, I agreed to write to him from now on.This is by no means a polite word, but his sincerity.

The old man was very happy with the promise of the young man.

From that joyful appearance, he more or less knew the shyness in his heart. It was the warm eyes of the old man that Jacques in the paladin era hadn't noticed.

The saint and the king of monsters, blessed by the great priest who prayed for the safety of the trip to the four gods, flew into the night sky illuminated by the clear and beautiful moonlight.

Covered by the night and cast a hidden spell, the flying red dragon flew towards its original destination, the headquarters of the Four Gods Sect in Jiaodupu.

Yake, who was wrapped in the hands of the huge dragon, took out the blanket from the equipment, but he didn't feel sleepy. It was incredible that the one who transported him was the Dragon King thousands of years ago.

"Did you hear that? Flame King."

"What?Are you in a bad mood? 』

"Please don't bring up that topic again. I don't feel drunk anymore. Please tell me the real reason for the sudden departure. Are you just worried about the number of days left? I always feel too eager. I heard that at the tavern where I went to prepare drinks last night. Is there something unstable?"

Feng Ling sent the Dragon King's sigh.

"Xiao Maotou also said that I can't keep any secrets from you.But it was not in the tavern, but in the square in front of the Great Temple.After Thunder Fang used the wind spirit magic, there were still quite a few wind spirits left in that area, and he suddenly met a wind spirit he knew. 』

This statement is like a man playing with women in the street, Yake half-jokingly said.

"Not only fire spirits, but also wind spirits?"

"different!Lu Qiu is a good friend.First of all, elves are fundamentally different beings from us.It is impossible to work. ──Ah, why are you laughing~~」

As if confirming Saifad's words, there was a breeze blowing around Yakanjar.

If half-realized, the wind spirits who looked like women wrapped in tulle seemed to laugh at the Dragon King's vacillation.

"So, the woman?"

『A holder of powerful magic power, who gathers the names of wind spirits.That guy seems to be planning to cast a fairly large-scale spell recently.Ordinary spells temporarily restrain nearby spirits and borrow their power, but for large-scale spells, the combined power of nearby spirits is not enough.The same goes for dividing the world into two.At that time, the elves whose names were collected in advance were summoned at the same time, and the power of those elves was combined. ──However, if it weren't for the strength of a doctor-level magician, it would be impossible to be an opponent of the elves. 』

"Every elf has a name. I learned from Mrs. Maryapola. However, there are elves who are restrained by their names, and there are also magicians who use them. If the magic power weakens, they immediately regain their names. Will revenge kill the magician?"

She said that the fire elves, in particular, were quite dangerous.

Yan Lie Wang, who calls the Salamander a friend and lives with him in his own body, can tell at a glance that the holder has strength far exceeding that of a doctor-level magician.

Just like Thunder Fang King who destroyed a solid stone city with a violent lightning strike, the strength of the wind-element magic and Safad's fire-element magic is at the same level.According to the wind spirits gathered by the mantra he chanted, the density of that number brought a sense of oppression to the surroundings.

Thinking of the dragon's trust in the elves.

"normal.If you think about it yourself, you can understand that who would be happy to suddenly become a slave and be driven arbitrarily.So when we gathered the names, we made an agreement, and it was good to have only one time. 』

"Who is the magician who gathered the names?"

"Because that's what she heard from a friend, and she doesn't know the details.That guy seems to be in Aisaka.When the beauty brother and the little hairy head met that dragon... ah──」

Saifad, who was a resident of the world thousands of years ago, has current knowledge through Ulan Pok, but he still doesn't quite understand the name of the country.

"It's Kipu. Aisaka is near Kipu, and it's a neighboring country that is connected to the border of our destination, the religious capital. It's generally believed——that magician is the Demon King, right? That's why he said that he killed himself.

"Hmm, well, in that case.Why prepare that big mantra?Is it to observe? 』

"I think so too. It seems that Aisaka also employs a considerable number of doctor-level magicians, and it may not be the Sorcerer King. But the Pope's personal letter to me, the spies should tell me. If I am the commander-in-chief of the Holy United Army It must be very unpleasant if it shows up!"

"The other way around is very exciting!So, what do you want to do before things end or start! 』

"If the magician who gathers the names of the elves is not the Sorcerer King. Unless it is a case where he can suddenly attack with magic, I don't have the confidence to deal with him alone."

This is the truth.

The people in the headquarters of the religious order with the pope at the top have no experience in actual combat with holy magic, so their combat power is naturally not worth looking forward to.

Moreover, in order to prevent the death of many powerless people, they will not provide help in battles that are not directly related to the religious order!

The Four-Phase God Religion is to keep people's hearts. Gods are originally the existence of guiding souls. If they give assistance to the fighting party, it violates the premise of the teachings of coordination and balance.

No messages criticizing the church system.Endearing no matter what.It lasted for 3000 years because of the continued neutral position of non-interference──.

Yakenjer froze.

"Then... the sect... how come no one has noticed it until now!"

"What's wrong? 』

"King Yanlie. Have you ever seen the headquarters of the sect thousands of years ago?"

"Ah ah.When traveling in human form, I stayed there on the way up the mountain.Back to back from the temple is the Pope's palace, surrounded by universities and monasteries, with studios for arts and crafts and special products sold to pilgrims...When viewed from a high altitude, it looks like a nice medium-sized city, but its content is quite different from the streets in other places.Was it involved in the chaotic vortex of war, or was it the same religious capital, the same place where you practiced?It doesn't matter if you have a land instinct.Sleep peacefully without worrying about such things!Tomorrow, in order to reduce the distance, use wind spirit magic to teleport multiple times.If you are still drunk, it is not good for your health. 』

Yake didn't correct the nosy Dragon King's misunderstanding.

My bold idea has no possibility of realization for a while, so I have to think from various angles.

Still not sleepy, he lay in the dragon's hand and closed his eyes, falling into long meditation.

Thousands of years ago, Yan Lie Wang, who used the sky of the Yamato Continent as a playground and flew around freely, had what humans call an intuition of direction.

Repeatedly using magic teleportation within a range that would not put a burden on Arkanzel's body reached the distance that would take three days to reach the destination in half the time.

"It really surprised me.It is ten or twenty times bigger than when I came here before! 』

The King of Dragon Kings, who didn't have the habit of living together in groups, and didn't build a house like a bird's nest, expressed his feelings in a surprised tone to the majesty of the huge religious city seen below.

Arkenjell, who is in the hands of the dragon, can't see the outside scenery at all, but it is the place where he was still living five years ago, and he still has memories.

The young self who abandoned his hometown, after encountering many tragic experiences that almost died, finally arrived at the city of dreams and hopes.

She personally gave up the holy knight's symbolic sword, which she finally got after enduring many hardships, and left the city with hatred and despair.

However, now this city invites him here in the name of a saint, and he is transported back by the dragon, and there is a special emotion——.

This may have something to do with my previous low status in the headquarters of the cult.

The headquarters of the Four Gods Religion is not the main capital where the king of the religion built the palace, but is located on the mountain in the northeast.

All the people living on the mountain live a life with a deep relationship with the sect. The mountain where the headquarters is located is called the headquarters mountain by outsiders.

The Great Temple and Yake are the bases of the commander-in-chief's Holy United Army.Like the royal city of Iceberg, it is surrounded by a ring-shaped city wall, and the distance between the protective walls is quite large.

The city wall that guards the royal city is the result of the continuous expansion of the city over a long period of time. When foreign enemies invade, a street wall was built at the outermost edge to protect the street.

The necessary manpower for the city is due to the influx of a large number of local residents. Residents who live here get married and have children, and the children receive education here. After they grow up, they work in the city and start a new family.

The streets of the city gradually become larger.To stop the growth of a growing city with an ever-increasing population, in addition to the death of many people in wars, it also includes infectious diseases that sometimes occur.

In small and medium-sized cities, violent infectious diseases can kill most of the residents, and the abandoned cities become ruins.

For thousands of years, for the believers in the whole mainland, different from political power is the sacred magic that can cure diseases. Zongbenshan has no problems of war and disease at all, so it can be said that it is a lucky city.

According to the thick history books of the Four-Faced God Religion, at first, the places where they lived, practiced and prayed were only small temples built on the mountain.

The people in the temple are self-sufficient and at the same time preach to the surrounding villages. Because of the incredible power called holy magic that they hold to heal diseases and wounds, the number of people who believe in the gods they say is gradually increasing.

With the temple as the center, the four-phase god religion gradually penetrated the surrounding areas, and the scale became larger and larger, and the surrounding believers also moved to the nearby streets, which became one with the life of prayer.

Now, the temple located in the center of the metropolis is the place where all believers of the four-phase gods in the mainland gather their beliefs.

On the two wings of the Great Temple, colonnades extend around the sides of the Great Square at the front, so that pilgrims can avoid the midday sun and shelter from the rain when it rains.

Twice a day the Pope appears on the balcony of the Grand Pantheon to bless the pilgrims waiting in the square.

What you can see behind the colonnade on the right is the monastery and nun monastery where the priests practiced, and behind the colonnade on the left is the university where the children of the nobles and the priests were educated.

The beautiful courtyard of the Pope's palace, which was built opposite the Great Temple, is a continuous forest, and the forest is the training ground and dormitory of the Holy Knights.

Along the gradually sloping hillside, buildings of all kinds, large and small, are arranged.All kinds of building groups were built beyond the scope of the four street walls built on the middle of the mountain, and now there are even parts of the foothills connected to the fields.

The peace of the millennium has allowed the city known by Saifad to grow in multiples, and this religious city continues to expand.

"Brother beauty.Landed magnificently in the main square, surprising those fellows of the Order. 』

"In terms of making a splendid appearance, Ur and Thunder Fang, who are both black dragons, are definitely not as good as your body color.──Ah, the same is true of your personality."

"makes sense.How can it not stand out. 』

Arkenjell, who had changed from the traveler's costume, laughed at the words of King Enere.

Riding a dragon into the large square of the Great Temple was the method Yake had considered at the beginning, but it was rejected by the Dragon King's suggestion.

First of all, with heavy equipment, along the smooth ramp to continue climbing uphill to the Great Temple, the double meaning of physical strength and appearance is required to be cancelled.

The huge red dragon released the hidden magic, and slowly landed towards the ground of the large square paved with stone slabs in the form of a pilgrim.

The square isn't wide enough for Jackie Chan to land on.Ulan Boke, who is still growing, is also very difficult.

Lowering the height under the eyes of people around him, he changed from a dragon entity to a human form on the way, with the intention of telling people that the man with orange hair, which humans do not have, is not human.

"Um?I feel that construction is going on next to the temple.It was difficult to see clearly because of the dense forest, as if a big hole had been dug. 』

"Because the stones are connected together, the fragile parts can't bear the weight and collapse. The Great Temple, which prioritizes the beauty of the appearance, is different from the strong castle prepared for battle, and its structure has a fundamental lack of strength. And this is the oldest. The Great Temple is not only very old, but also has been added and rebuilt many times. When I was there, a corner of the prayer hall was also destroyed, and there were a considerable number of dead and wounded. It seems that restoration works are carried out almost every day. "

"what!It's so dangerous, can you walk safely? 』

"If you don't die on the spot, someone will heal you with a healing spell even if you are seriously injured. Because there are monks and priests present no matter where you are. The pain at that time can only be regarded as bad luck."

Arkenjell's explanation made the dragon tremble.

"This kind of words—?People really believe—”

"When I stayed inside, I didn't care because I got used to it. But after leaving, I felt that I was quite abnormal. But the degree is quite subtle. There are people in this mountain who also don't believe in such a strange thing..."

"Why?I always feel that the tone is not very confident──Wow! 』

The shock and pain that hit his whole body suddenly made the dragon roar.

Yake, who fell over in the hands of the dragon, couldn't believe that he heard the bitter cry of the dragon's king.

"Saifa, what's wrong?"

"Can't stop... body paralyzed... move..."

The intermittent answer like a groan vaguely reveals the pain that King Yanlie endured.

The fierce attack of the tormenting dragon was fortunately not passed to the hands, but because he could not see the outside world at all and could not understand the situation, Yake could not help Saifad.

Even so, I was desperately trying to figure out a way.

It happened suddenly, nothing happened before, and King Yanlie didn't look suspicious.But the power tormenting the dragon in the sky cannot be a natural phenomenon, it is caused by magic!

This is the headquarters of the Four Gods Sect, and the magic used should be sacred magic.

──"Enchantment", does not allow unauthorized things to enter the set area, and ejects them when they invade.Capturing something in the air, plus spells to attack....Foreign body reaction...is "attack the defense wall"!

Originally, this was not a powerful incantation.Probably because most of the casters cast spells at the same time, so the effectiveness is enhanced.If you want to unlock this spell, you must chant a spell that is difficult and expensive.

But Yakenjel, who wanted to save Sephad as soon as possible, simply failed the intention of the people who cast the spell, and with a single sentence

Make the spells of their hard work ineffective.

""Undo the Curse"!"

Maria Perla once said in a lecture that a high-ranking magician may be able to forcibly break the spell after knowing what the spell is. ──But this is the theory of elves following the elf magic of those with stronger magic power.

The sacred magic that is activated under the blessing of the four gods, it may be extremely inferior to have the same idea.

Even so, Yake believes that in order to help and liberate the Dragon King, the gods will forgive.

The power of belief far exceeds the magical power of the pope, and annihilates the power that binds Sephad's body in the air.

Although freed from the spell in the air, the paralyzed dragon still couldn't escape the fate of falling.

For the young man, he had the experience of falling from Ur, which was struck by the lightning released by the silver dragon.This time, he had enough time to prepare himself mentally, and called out to Saifad, who was not sure whether he was awake or not.

"Flame King! Transform into a human form. Use the "floating" incantation of ancient magic!"

"Catch up with... Feng Ling... please..."

The wind spirits who accepted the order of the fallen Dragon King floated in the air with the youth and equipment in their arms.

From the arms of the semi-substantial, transparent girls holding him, Yake yelled emptily to the red dragon passing by.

"Saifard...!"

Although King Yanlie planned to change into the power of wind spirit to control the falling human body, he couldn't change as fast as usual.In the end, the figure of the dragon shrunk to one third of the size of the square collided violently with the ground.

The impact shook the earth.

From the broken powder to the original size, mixed with large and small foundation stones, it flew in all directions.

The wind spirits who are loyal to the dragon king use their wind shields to resist the foundation stones flying from below, and also protect the youth from the flying dust that will take away their breath.

Yake was slowly placed on the ground, and he couldn't help gasping after seeing the tragedy of the big square that became clear after the flying dust gradually subsided.

There is a deformed elliptical pit in the center of the square, which completes to the center of the square.At the bottom of the pit was the Yan Lie King lying face down in human form, half of his body covered in sand.

The young man who landed in the square that was no longer neatly paved with stone slabs like before, his expression froze when he saw the figures of people running out from the large temple and colonnade to watch.

The paladins in charge of guarding the Great Temple and the Pope's Palace had bows, arrows, and spears in their hands no matter who they were.Without drawing the sword on his waist, he told Yake that they planned to attack from a distance.

Judging from the expressions on their faces who were a little far away, they knew that if they planned to have a friendly negotiation, it would be futile.

If──do not guard.

Yake jumped from the edge of the pothole to the bottom of the deep pit without hesitation.

Perhaps because of the enhanced magic power, simple ancient magic spells can be activated with a slight movement of the fingers.

Changing the falling speed of its own flesh, it lands gracefully like a feather.

"The Flame King!"

The man who seemed to respond to Yake's voice seemed to have noticed that he was half buried because of what happened just now.

Because the sand that covers the body cannot detect the mood of the Dragon King, the Phantom Beast King can move freely.Because it is not a dragon protected by the earth spirit, it cannot ask the earth spirit for help.

It will take a while for the humanoid Sephad to recover.

There was a sharp sound of breaking wind, and the arrows shot by the Paladin poured down like rain.

""Holy Shield"! 』

The expected immediate activation of the spell by Arkenjell, and the invisible holy shield protected the lying Dragon King from being harmed by the rain of arrows.

At the moment of relief, the young man instinctively sensed the danger, and followed his instinct as a warrior to fly back.

A spear, immediately behind the deep thrust where it stood before.The figure of the four-faced god is engraved near the tip of the arrow, indicating that it is the weapon of a paladin blessed by the sanctification of the priest.

This situation was an attack of course, but the fact that he was attacked by the paladins of the same generation gave the young man a big shock.Because of his wavering, he couldn't continue to chant the defensive bow and arrow attack spell.

As a last resort, he drew his sword and separated in the air before shooting himself.

Although he planned to cast the spell of "Holy Shield" on himself, he just opened his mouth, but saw several balls of light crossing his head.

It seemed that the size of the ball of light could be wrapped with both hands, and the blood rushed to Yake's face.

──"Light Explosion Bomb"!

It was the attack spell launched by the priests of the Great Temple to kill the Dragon King lying at the bottom of the pit.

Two years ago when the young man himself was traveling, Stuyam tore apart a type of dragon with a single blow, and he was proud of that power.Using the "Holy Shield" can only defend against one blow at best.To defend against multiple "light cracking bombs", it is necessary to use other powerful defensive spells.

I don't know if relying on elven magic can completely defend against it. In this case, it is too dangerous to rely only on the wind spirit entrusted by King Yanlie who can't get up now.

It seems a little unreasonable to use a high-level spell, but it is too late to chant the full text of the spell to defend against the activated "Light Explosion Bomb".

Arkenjell yelled with all his heart.

""Holy Light Shell"!"

While the scream was still there, a golden shimmer that seemed to be sprinkled with gold dust formed a hemispherical shield centered on Saifad.

The surface of the hemisphere is constantly under attack. The "Light Crack Bomb" was incapacitated after hitting it, leaving pearl-colored ripples and then wiped out.

"what……!"

Not long after it was confirmed that King Yanlie was safe and sound, two arrows pierced Yakenjieer's right shoulder.

The price of protecting the important dragon king is the complete defenselessness of the young man himself.

The sharp pain running through his back made it impossible for him to raise his sword.He was shot to the left foot by three arrows again, unable to stand up and fell face down.

"... Yake!"

Sephad, who managed to prop up his upper body on his elbows, happened to see this scene.

"...How dare these guys...!"

The orange hair spouted burning flames.

In an instant, the pit was surrounded by hellfire.

The arrows aimed at the young man and the dragon king immediately burned in the air.Even the blessed sacred spear is no exception.The steel tip left after burning was melted by high heat on the way and deformed by the impact when it fell to the bottom of the pit.

The flames spewed out high, even reaching the top of the front of the Great Temple.

The paladins outside the pit were afraid of the excessive fire and heat, and backed away in panic.

As if laughing at their embarrassment, the flames suddenly disappeared, and King Yanlie in red armor stood in the center.

It was the same as the armor when he returned to the Dragon King, from dark red to vermilion, orange, various reds were intertwined on the surface of the armor, and a golden emblem pattern floated on one corner.

"Humans who despise the Dragon King cannot be forgiven!"

Unleashing terrible anger, the Phantom Beast King growled.

"Fire Spirit! Fly.──"Reverse Fireball Burst"!"

It is fundamentally different from the spell of spirit magic that temporarily binds nearby spirits and enslaves them.He merely utters his wishes and demands.

The fire spirit that lived with him could fully understand its meaning.

A violent explosion occurred within a limited range, and the grand square shook violently again.

Usually, the energy is diffused and exploded from the inside to the outside, but this time it is reversed from the outside to the inside.When the huge destructive force touched the Great Temple and Colonnade, it immediately took effect.

Half of the front of the Great Temple and the pillars of the colonnade were blown to pieces, turning into stone fragments smaller than a fist and blown away.

The paladins who were originally in the main square were hit by the explosive wind and flying stones all over their bodies, and fell backwards. The air currents collided with each other in the center and disappeared.

Yakenjel was protected by the elves who obeyed the will of the Dragon King, and was not harmed by the flames, explosive airflow or falling stones like rain, but when he saw Sephad who seemed to be planning to cast a spell by himself, he tried his best to stop him .

"Please stop, Flame King! Please. Don't hurt the members of the sect."

He yelled as hard as he could at the other party from a little distance away, and walked over enduring the severe pain.

Seemingly dissatisfied, the Phantasm Beast King who transformed into a gorgeous battle attire hugged the approaching wounded youth with both hands.

His expression darkened when he saw the pierced arrows and blood-stained clothes.

"I'm sorry. I let you suffer this injury while I was on the side. Now pull out the arrow."

"Excuse me, this is not flat ground anymore, can you carry me and fly to a height where you can see the panoramic view of the Grand Square?"

"You can't ask the earth spirit, let humans fill it up with hard work!"

Different from the usual indecent tone, King Yanlie, who said coldly, stretched out the red wings behind his back, and flew up with Yake in his arms.

The paladins, who fell to the ground bleeding from the young man's head, were stunned when they saw the magnificent front of the Great Temple, which had suffered unprecedented damage.

The statues of the saints lined up at the top of the front overlooking the square also fell to pieces.

The Dragon King gets a head start before being blamed by the youth.

"You let the Phantom Beast King fall from the sky. In front of believers, this level of shame is not small. If it is not because it is your paladin partner, just considering your injuries, it doesn't matter if you are even burned to death."

For the Dragon King who thinks highly of himself, being caught and fallen by human magic is incredible anger and humiliation!

Yake felt the coldness and anger remaining in Saifad's voice, and expressed his gratitude to the Dragon King who restrained himself considering the original Paladin himself.

"Thank you, Flame King."

The whispering young man closed his eyes, ignoring the pain in his wound, and chanted loudly.

"A heart that invites violent quarrels. A heart of suspicion, hatred, and contempt. A heart of oneself that is like a shadow compared to others. Emotions that destroy your heart, remove their influence. Calm. Before the name of the god of harmony and balance. .Average calm.──"Calm"!"
