dangerous way to choose dragons

Was it really King Mezier himself? "

"Hmph, this is a duel between the legendary Phantom Beast Dragon Kings. You must watch it. There is nothing to be suspicious about."

"Duel of the Dragon King... Is that so. Instead of sitting on the throne and waiting for the report on Shangnajin, why not check it with your own eyes?"

"By the way, where is the opponent in the duel?"

"Not yet." The young man replied instead of Ulan Pok, who confirmed his existence with Yin Qi.

On the other hand, Ulan Boke drew out the Dragon Heart Sword on his back, and began to draw graphics with the tip of the sword on the ankle-length grass. , with additional marks added.

Ignoring the obstructing grass, the boy drew without hesitation.

"What are you drawing?"

On behalf of the surrounding paladins, the female knight asked.

Having accomplished his purpose, the boy inserted the crimson sword back into the simple scabbard on his back.

"This is a barrier that strictly restricts the use of magic. It doesn't matter who enters it while I'm chanting the spell. Entering it will kill you."

After speaking, he stood at the center of the figure, stretched his hands forward and began to chant ancient magic spells.

"Blessings of the rich earth, blessings of the pouring sunlight, blessings of the overflowing water, blessings of the surrounding atmosphere. The power to gather the world that nurtures life is here—"

Ur's hands closed with a quick incantation.

Looking at the boy chanting the mantra for the first time, Yake narrowed his eyes.

The dragon king standing at the top of the phantom beast, simple elf magic can be activated by saying the name of the spell. Compared with complex ancient magic, formal chanting is necessary.

"300 years passed in a blink of an eye. ── "Higher Growth""

The trembling air made a heavy low sound, and the hexagram under the boy's feet released a dazzling light, forming a beam of light stretching toward the sky.

The beam of light disappeared immediately, but all the staff who were hit by the strong light were still annoyed by the afterimage.

Yake, who had finally faded the black shadow blocking his vision, blinked at the figure of a man he had never seen standing where Ulan Pok should have been standing.

The black armor covered the whole body, and the knight in the black cloak appeared to be in his 20s or less than 30 years old. He was half a head taller than Kenjell, a burly man with a strong build.

The slightly longer black hair hangs loosely on the broad back, and for some reason, there are different strands of blond hair on each side of the forehead, making the all-black appearance no longer have a dull impression.

The straight and tidy face and the sharp expression skillfully blended the two completely opposite atmospheres of sophistication and wildness.

That face has the impression that I have seen it before.

"Ur...?"

For Yake, who was half-believing and half-doubting, the man showed a slightly shy and conservative smile.

"This appearance can only be maintained for a while. The vitality of the Dragon King is stronger than the effect of spells, and I am getting used to it now."

"Is it really you, Ulan Pok?"

Not only the young man, but also the paladins let out panicked voices.

The Eudemons King, who has accelerated the growth of human beings for ten years, came out from the hexagram ground where the grass was withered.

Juliu didn't respond, but the other paladins retreated unconsciously.

Strong in body and strength, the majesty of the mysterious Phantom Beast overwhelmed the paladins and made them feel timid.

There is only one paladin who is not timid.

"Not cute at all!"

Felicia resolutely protested.

"Compared to such thick breasts, the kid from before is definitely cuter. Isn't that right, Yake?"

"Ugh, this.... If you use the word cute..."

Feeling strongly stimulated by his inferiority complex, Yake unknowingly agreed with his friend's unreasonable proposition.

When they met for the first time, Ulan Pok, who was a child half a head lower than Biak, was also better than growing up to such a burly man.He is not inferior to Yan Lie Wang and Lei Fang Wang, an excellent Phantasmal Beast King.

However, now that he is jealous of himself who is full of masculinity, he has an urge to escape from here.

Ulan Boke lowered his hands as if hurt.

"It will return to its current form soon. If Arkanzel doesn't like it, he will grow at the same speed as a normal dragon king, and he will become an adult... 15 years away."

"It's not cute to have such a big body, kid. It sucks, it's frustrating to be like a really good man. If I was a man, I would like to have a body like yours."

"You look very much like a man now."

"……What did you say!"

The paladins laughed.And the originally dreary air around Huan Beast King became softer.

Yake, who was worried that he would not be as brave and honest as her, tried his best to smile and look up at Ur.

There holy knights on horseback blow up there.With that smile, the air around the Phantom Beastmaster's sudden transformation and hesitation softened.

Yak, who bravely confessed his worries like she couldn't, looked up at Ur with a smile that he could do his best.

"I'm sorry for making you sad. Compared to when we first met, I feel a serious incongruity. It's not like Dorma, but it's the same height. If you know that you won't lose to him when you grow up, Dorma will too. Be surprised!"

"When I was in World of Eudemons, I used this spell every day. But I don't need to open the barrier when I'm in the air. So it's the first time to use the spell in a form other than a real one, and I also feel uncomfortable with the change of the height of the line of sight."

"Every day? You grow at the speed of a human, is it because of repeated use of spells?"

"Yeah, I understand that it's not completely returning to the original appearance. We are the life and animal husbandry of another world, and the time is different from Arkenjell."

The intense light in the looking down black eyes was exactly the same as when the eyes met for the first time.Always like this, the figure of Arkenjell appeared in the eyes that had been staring.

Even if you look up or look down, the meaning remains the same.It was his own boring thoughts, which hurt the Dragon King who was only thinking about himself.

"I'm sorry, Ur. I'm really sorry."

"The lifespan of the Dragon King is different from that of human beings. It's not because of Arkenjel. I made an oath to live the same time as Arkenjel. Keeping the oath is a matter of course."

"The two of you over there. I'm sorry to bother you at a busy time. Please come here if you can. I'll be happy if you think of us."

The female knight who called out to the two half-smiled.

In addition to the paladins who were still a little worried, there were also horses who were watching from Aisaka's side and taking care of the connection.

Yake retorted to hide his shame.

"In a duel, there must be an opponent. Even if you think about it, you can't fight someone who is not there!"

"It's the place of the duel right now, and the atmosphere is full of tension. Are you nervous?──Ah, tricky brat. I was paying attention just now. Why do you only have blond hair on these two sides of your head?"

Yake (top) retorted while hiding his embarrassment.

"You need an opponent for a duel. Even if you remember everything, you can't fight something that doesn't exist."

"When a duel is present, the tense air should flow. Where are you tensed? ——ah, kid. I've been concerned since just now, but why is there only two places on the head here, blond hair?"

The part being pulled by Feliette, the Huan Beast King frowned in embarrassment.

"I don't know. I said it was the first time I became a human after I grew up. Nian, the older and beautiful sister doesn't seem to be too nervous."

"Otherwise, what should I do? But you don't have the memory of being called an older sister by you at your current age."

"Who is calling me a kid at my age? I didn't hide it on purpose. It's just that I can't resist, so I can't say I made a mistake."

"Heh. If you can't resist, why would you call it that?"

"...Now it's the voice of resistance, onee-san."

The paladins behind laughed.

Intending to divert her mind, Yake talked about his thoughts in a panic.

"It was a temporary thought. The blond hair may symbolize the color of the horns. Ur, the Dragon King, only has golden horns! I always feel that the position of the head is associated with the place where the horns are. But it has always been black, why? All of a sudden, I became blond..."

"Isn't it evidence of growing up? Do you only have bangs?"

"You'll lose your baldness if you pull it like this, old and beautiful onee... Ugh, I made a mistake...how should I say it?"

Even the paladins, who were polite to women and children, couldn't help laughing.

"This...Fen...sorry..." Yake smiled while apologizing.

The person who slipped the tongue, showed a reflective attitude because it was not intentional, and the female knight did not retaliate.

"The culprit who makes people lose their sense of tension is you!"

Unable to refute, Ulan Boke immediately made an action because of something that touched the feeling of the Eudemons.

Raising his head as if bouncing up, and looking at the sky with fixed eyes, the unusual movement of the Phantasmal Beast King changed the calm atmosphere just now.

"Here we come...! That's right."

The deep and quiet voice raised the tension of the people from Zongbenshan.

At one point in the blue sky he was staring at, there appeared black clouds that blocked the sunlight, but immediately, a huge creature that covered the entire sky passed over the heads of all the members.

On the day when Zongben Mountain was hit by a storm caused by elf magic, the paladins had seen Ulan Boke, the dragon king entity, but they had never seen the one in front of them.Unlike Ur on the day of the storm, the silver dragon is a full-grown body.

Huge beyond imagination, the fusion of metal weapons and armor, as well as creatures such as horses and birds, makes people feel strangely beautiful and terrifying.

The silver dragon that landed on the pasture, joined the people transported from Jiaodu and the audience from Aisaka, and then flew into the air again.

"I'll wait, Ulan Pok. 』

The Phantom Beast King who was directly called by his name clenched his teeth in displeasure.

Dragonlords are quite allergic to first names.Generally, try not to call each other by their first names, and use nicknames when greeting each other.It is unacceptable rudeness to call someone by their first name without a fixed relationship such as an oath.

Their disgust from being directly named is very strong.

If you look for a feeling similar to this in humans, it's like the feeling of disgust when someone you secretly hate greets you with a nickname, or the feeling of being repulsed by the incongruity when someone speaks in a rude tone—a strong feeling like this .

It is no longer a reason, it has become an unpleasant feeling that cannot be tolerated physiologically.

Yakla, who understood this from dating to now, held the arm of Ur, who had a strangely ferocious and angry expression, and persuaded him.

"Think about the meaning of losing your cool because of this provocation. Be careful. I trust you, but don't want to see you get hurt like last time."

"Understood. Don't worry. My lord's words won't lose strength. That's why I used the spell. So that guy has nothing to worry about. Yakenzel just believes in me and waits for me to become stronger."

As the Huan Beast King said, he grabbed the small chin of the young man looking up at him with his fingertips, and quickly stole a kiss.

Suddenly being kissed by him who became an adult, when the vower was still surprised, the Black Dragon King stretched out his wings and flew up.

"I'm going."

After finishing speaking, the black figure changed while rising, and turned into a jet-black dragon king who was bigger than the silver dragon waiting in the sky.

"This look...!Did you use magic? 』

"According to the promise of the duel, there is no need to possess magic.It was I who became the adult.This is equal. 』

"Hmph, what's the deal.Although he has powerful magic power, he is unable to use the corresponding level of spirit magic.Can this be called the King of Eudemons? 』

Russegrave, who had no doubts about his superiority, sneered and said the most unpleasant words to Ur.

There was a moment of silence.

Ulan Boke said in a tone of hidden anger.

"I said it last time.I don't admit defeat because if I were an adult, I would have been able to tell the winner a long time ago.Use this body to make you understand. ──Fire, water, wind, and earth.The magic that resides in me, respond to my request! ——"Burst and Lightning Strike"! 』

The four spirits who received the order from the Phantom Beast King moved simultaneously.

Several lightning spears depicting irregular orbits pierced the silver dragon through the air.The freezing air that attacked also stunned the body in an instant, and the explosion caused by the fire spirit caused the dragon king to fall to the ground with terrible force.

The body of the dragon flying in the sky was as heavy as its appearance, and the falling impact shook the ground violently, and the scattered clods of soil poured down like rain—those who stared blankly at this scene completely ignored the shaking of their feet.

"It's the spirit of the earth... has the spirit of the earth moved?"

Regardless of mages, paladins, people with knowledge of magic, shouted in unison on both sides.

Led by the Sorcerer King brought by Lars, the magicians of Aisaka fell into a semi-panic state because they used the spells of all the four great spirits at the same time.

The so-called incantations are the magic words used by the magician to restrain the elves to convey orders.If you try to restrain other spirits during this time, the spirits will run away.

Not to mention the fire and water spirits who are incompatible, it is impossible to cooperate at the same time.

"This...it can be used because of the magical aptitude of the four great spirits, isn't it? Just like the existence of the four great spirits in nature, they can be synthesized after balancing...no one has thought of it until now....The spirits can also be reconciled and balanced Is it? It is completely in line with the teachings of the Four Gods."

The Demon King smiled wryly.

The same goes for mages who know this fact, but it is impossible for them who are only water elves to reach this level.No matter how much you study, if you want to use the four aptitudes in a unified way, except for the magical body known as the king of magic, you can only give up.

The paladins who couldn't use elf magic were just in awe.

Yakenjer understood why Ulan Pok was still stuck at the intermediate level.

"That's right...! In order to freely use the level of the four spirits of the same strength? In addition, if his magic power is divided into four, it is quite powerful and simple."

"But the power of this spell now doesn't feel like using four intermediate magics at the same time. To knock out the dragon king's attack from the sky, if it is not a doctor-level magic, it suddenly becomes four, which is still four intermediate magics. ?"

Yake, who is not a magician, could not answer Felicia's question.

"Sorry, my knowledge of elven magic is only slightly better than yours. The person who is suitable for commentary as far as I know happens to be in the opposing camp."

The special elf magic that had a great impact on magicians was discovered by accident when the dragon kings fought.

Ulan Pok, who synthesized elf magic once unconsciously, later thought of the simultaneous movement of multiple elves at that time, but he didn't understand how to use it.If you don't understand it, you can't reproduce it.

I realized the principle when I saw a windmill at a man's booth performing a puppet show for children.

The fans on the inside and outside are painted with different colors. There are all kinds of ordinary windmills, and the colors cannot be seen when they are turned by the wind.This is a simple toy that uses the illusion of sight.

Unlike the dragon king who can instantly recognize objects in motion, humans are easily bewitched by illusions, turning their eyes with the initial color.

Using illusion, the principle of windmills that confuse colors due to high-speed operation, and appear pure colors when they finally disappear, is strongly fascinated.

Each color is a fixed existence, the essence is completely unchanged, but they are close to each other when they move at the same time.

Changing the color to the four big elves, and comparing himself to a windmill with four separate fans of different colors, Ulan Boke solved the mystery of the elf magic unconsciously used.

The two-headed dragon king ignored the people who were excited about the "new" magic and fought.

Because of the violent conflict with the earth, Lars endured the pain of suffocation, and ordered the water spirit to cover the body attacked by the fire spirit with ice.

And to restore one broken wing to its original shape, time must be bought.

Ur in the sky breathed out the dragon's breath of ice that made it impossible for the opponent to regain freedom.

Lars used the teleportation of wind spirit magic to avoid the ice dragon's breath that was chasing and sealing his body's movement, and moved to another place to use magic to counterattack.

The huge fireball that immediately appeared beside the Huan Beast King burst into dozens of high-heat fireballs and attacked him.The defensive incantations were not enough to deal with the constant fire bombs, and Ur's armor heated up and turned into a color that showed high heat.

But Ur endured the high fever of his body, and chanted the ancient spell of destruction before catching the fireballs.

"Little brat, think about us below... Worry! If it's not good, at least keep your body first, bastard."

The voice of Feliatta, who had changed her face and became angry, reached the ears of the Dragon King who was in battle.

"Really, just say. 』

Ur, who endured the heat of the armor not to fall down, doubted his eyes and ears when the voice of the silver dragon came from his head.

His eyes still saw the figure of the enemy below, but there was a sinister air above the voice.

—Oops, illusion?

A rock-shattering blow from the tail hit the end of the wing.

"Give back what you just—"

Russegrave, who was talking to the black dragon who was holding back from falling, also received a strong blow to the chest from his hind legs and bounced off.

"I always think it's more like a savage quarrel in the air than an air battle. I'm a little disillusioned with the beautiful creatures." The Sorcerer said his impressions after watching it.

Ur, who judged that the painful wing tails could not support the weight of the recovered entity, turned into a human being while falling.Fire-burned armor is also healed during the change.

Among the dragon kings who can transform, there is Moying who wants to fight in the same appearance as the opponent.

Although he didn't care about the possibility of the silver dragon violating the taboo breaking the rules and attacking, Ur considered that his opponent would be kicked away.Also steals time if the opponent recovers from damage.

Russegrave's injury was above Ull's expectations.

Because of the careless kick in the chest, two or three bones were broken. Although the wings can be opened and floated in the air correctly, the muscles in the shoulders and chest are affected when the direction is changed.Unable to endure the excruciating pain, the body rejected the master's will to change direction.

With the high natural healing power of phantom beasts, the bones can be completely connected, but if transformed into a smaller human body, the healing will be faster.

The injured two-headed dragon king transformed into a full-body armored knight one after the other.

Ur, who didn't need wings, recovered quickly and attacked immediately.

The invisible whirlwind wind blade that cut off the pasture quickly attacked Lars, but it was like coaxing a child. The one-eyed knight used a strong wind vortex to disperse the whirlwind.

The vortex disappeared even the flying pasture covering the field of vision, and instead of the hidden green eyes, the dark knight entered the field of vision.

The crimson blade capable of cutting any object in half was severed from the head.

Rasegrave, who quickly retreated, managed to catch the blow of the Dragon Heart Sword, and the white cloak, which was a little later, was cut from the middle.

Ulan Boke quickly caught up with the enemy who landed and fled.

The ribs hadn't healed completely, Lars had no choice but to draw out his Dragon Heart Sword, and caught the second knife of the Huan Beast King.Only Dragon Heart Sword can fight against Dragon Heart Sword.

The wavy sword reminiscent of a flame shape and the large sword with a three-inch banner that exceeds the width of an ordinary sword make a dull and dull sound when they collide.

Changing their standing positions, they fought one time, two times, and three times in a row, so that people could not catch up with them, and only the sound sounded.

When Ulan Boke first met Yakenjer, he was only fourteen or five years old.Using a juvenile appearance with a sword that is three and a half feet long and three inches wide across the blade looks out of place.

The dragon heart sword condensed from the blood of the dragon king and the magic power of the real name is the form that represents the essence of one's own soul.

Now, held in the hand of the Phantom Beast King in a temporary future form, like a part of his body.

The injury was healed, and the silver dragon, which had no sense of incongruity when moving, officially launched an attack.

Seeing the figure of Ur, who was only focused on striking Rath, the Aisaka mages who had no knowledge of sword skills became nervous.

Although there were no mages, the Sorcerer Lord, who had comparable sword skills compared to the nearby knights, shook his head and sighed.

"Oh, I can't do magic, and I can't do swords. At least I hope I don't lose to the extent that the owner will be ashamed."

The boy's physical strength was not as strong as the opponent's, and Ur, who had one hand cut off, successfully received the enemy's sharp blow to the armpit with one hand after growing up.

"I will pay back what I owed you last time."

The Phantom Beast King whispered, the sword held in his left hand slashed towards Lars, and his right hand clenched into a fist and punched the opponent's face fiercely.

The left fist, which became a blind spot, simply attacked Rath's chin, who had not expected to attack other than a sword.

The one-eyed knight leaned back sharply to catch the impact, trying to stand still.

Ulan Boke didn't stop attacking, and charged with the shoulder of the armor.The burly man in black bounced Lars, who was of inferior physique, away.

Seeing this, Felicia was half surprised and half admired.

"Tricky brat. Being a Phantom Beast King, but making such a rough imitation action, this is not a way of fighting that can be called a knight!"

"He has been working as a mercenary for the four years since he came to this world and never met us. In addition to Thomas' relationship... the environment where the Phantasm King lives is not very good..."

"You don't need to reflect. If you don't learn your correct sword skills, you can't be beautiful. It's the character of the kid who chooses this way. You're not wrong... Uwah, this time it's a kick!"

The emotions on both sides of the audience were greatly ups and downs, and the paladins' side turned into cheers.

"At least it came to fruition!"

Just winning doesn't mean it's over.The King of Beasts still has the mission of not killing the silver dragon who is a traitor and bringing it back to the underworld.This is a problem.

Knowing that it was almost over, Akenjel smiled all over his face because of the safety and victory of his Dragon King.

Ulan Pok, who kicked his opponent down, put one foot on the chest of the man who was lying on his back, and flashed his sword at him.

The tip of the sword held in his left hand aimed at Lars' remaining right eye.

With the threat of blinding both eyes, he blocked the resistance of Rasegrave, who realized the unshakable difference in power between the two.

"It's not my intention, I'll give you a choice. Declare your real name to me and return to the underworld as a summoned beast, or make you unable to resist the posture of cutting off your hands and feet? If neither of you like it, just do as I want.── ─Choose!」

Thinking of becoming a summoned beast, even if it is only temporarily absorbing the pervert into his body, Ur still has a shuddering feeling of disgust.

If the question and answer did not cut off the limbs directly, but if they were brought back with such a body, if something bad happened, the limbs could not be reattached as they were, and they would still have to be killed.If he knew a way not to break the balance of Qi, he would kill him even if he was told.

What to do and how to be done are not considered, if not quite close.

Since the battle was lost, King of Eudemons was also mentally prepared to consider Lars' death.

With a slight smile, he said disgustingly.

"In this way, if you can't become my thing, can I just be yours? Anyway, I want to be yours, who is as cute as a child."

"...Pervert. If you plan to test my leniency, you'd better stop. As long as it's about you, my sanity is always within a few feet of fainting."

The point of Ur's sword quivered at the words.

As he said, he suppressed the great dissatisfaction with the power of will, and peeping out from the violent trembling, Rath's face emerged——laughing.

It seems that the evil smile faded away quickly, revealing a heavy sad expression, and Ur looked at it unexpectedly.

The crimson one-eyed, looking beyond the dragon king's king seems to see other things.

"...Anyway, I, Oath... If you are not expected, no matter who the dragon king is, you won't be familiar with it... If you just feel happy, you can save the effort of killing it at the end!"

"Hey... what did you say?"

Without answering the question of the Eudemons King, Russegrave, who was lying on the ground, began to recite the incantation.

"I, Rasegrave, became his servant in the name of the Phantom Beast King, sleeping in his blood. However, when I was summoned in the name of the king, I had to quickly destroy the king's enemies with my own strength. …── ─”

"Wow! Slow, wait, stop, pervert!"

"──"Magic Covenant Activation""

Lars' spell, which ignored the Phantom Beast King's chanting restraint, was activated.

Patterns of different forms of light appear on the foreheads of the dragon king avatars on both sides.

For a moment, the silver dragon that emitted white light all over its body was sucked in by the pattern on Ulan Pok's forehead and disappeared.
