I don't want to be a heroic spirit

"I'm so sorry! Master Ragcliff! This person is a notorious freak of an Axis cultist, so please forgive her disrespect!"

The reason why Darkness didn't say anything was that she was keeping an eye on Huihui and Aqua, the two biggest troublemakers. As a result, she let down her guard and let Aqua run here. She hurriedly pulled Aqua to apologize to the Prime Minister.

When Aqua heard Darkness call the Axis cultists freaks, she immediately became unhappy and started to use crazy scratching on Darkness.

Darkness could only endure it silently, perhaps even feeling a little secretly happy in her heart.

“No, since they’re Axis followers, there’s nothing we can do about it. It’s fine, I really don’t mind…”

The Prime Minister, who had been groped by Aqua, said this with a stiff expression.

The meeting continued for a while, but there was no progress.

The Elrod Kingdom's attitude was very firm, and it insisted on using the excuse of "financial difficulties". Everything was within Nero's expectations.

However, after leaving the royal city, Alice's mood has been low, as if she was frustrated that she did not achieve her original goal.

Alice really takes this matter seriously. Yesterday, when Nero and the others went out to play, Alice was alone in the hotel preparing for today's meeting.

Chapter 339 The Great Achievement of Slaying the Dragon

"Then the organization's hopes are entrusted to you!"

Very solemnly, Nero placed the pass that allowed free entry to the National Casino in Kazuma's hands.

And Kazuma also rarely saluted properly.

"I will definitely complete the mission! I will definitely not let the organization down!"

"Hmm! Very energetic! Then let's repeat our goal again! Our goal is..."

"Let Elrod go bankrupt!"

Nero and Kazuma: “Ohh ...

Poor Kingdom of Elrod, they don’t know what will happen next.

Nero has absolute confidence in Kazuma. The other party has luck second only to the goddess of luck. The simple phrase "protagonist halo" is not enough to describe his luck. It is simply "super high school level luck."

Kazuma, with his head held high and his entire aura transformed, walked straight towards the casino entrance, and Aqua followed behind him with a proud and confident look...

"You are not allowed to go."

"Why!"

Aqua, whose Fate was grabbed by Nero by the scruff of the neck, looked at Nero with great dissatisfaction.

"How dare you ask me this! You're the unlucky wretch who always gets a chest monster when you open a treasure chest, never wins at rock-paper-scissors, and always gets rotten eggs when you crack eggs. Can you have a little self-awareness? I don't care what you do with other things, but what I'm going to do next involves the future of the ancient Kingdom of Belzer. How could I let a troublemaker like you in and mess things up!"

"Trust me this time, Nero! I have a feeling I'm going to win money today! Because when I was drinking tea this morning, I saw the tea stems stand up, so I'm definitely going to turn defeat into victory today!"

"Don't think I didn't see you. You've been turning tea into fresh water since early morning, brewing it over and over again until the tea leaves stand upright, okay?"

Ignoring Aqua’s tantrum, Nero turned to look at Darkness.

“Darkness, why don’t you come with Kazuma too… With the Dustiness family’s status as a guarantee, the casino shouldn’t give Kazuma too much trouble… And if anything goes wrong, you can always get Kazuma out.”

"Okay... although I still think your plan is a bit messed up, Nero."

Silly Darkness, you are one of the people who has been with Kazuma the longest, but you still don’t understand this guy’s level of wall-clinging.

Nero didn't intend to explain too much. Kazuma would start his performance soon anyway, so let Kazuma prove it with his actions.

With Kazuma's personality, he might be so proud that he would ask Darkness to serve him tea and water and enjoy Darkness's service.

After watching Darkness follow Kazuma into the casino that was as luxurious as his own Golden Theater, Nero looked at the fully armed Alice, Yunyun, and Huihui and smiled slightly.

"Hmm! Then... let's get going too."

"Is this the day we've finally been waiting for?"

Huihui pinched the brim of her hat with her left hand, and swung her cloak with her right hand holding the staff. The eye that was not covered by the eyepatch burst into a blood-red light.

"The cup is overflowing with blood, the shadow of the beast roars in the abyss, the dark sun has set, now it is our turn to raise the banner of slaying the dragon!"

Youyou was a little nervous.

"If it's Sister Nero, there will definitely be no problem...but I won't cause trouble for everyone, right?"

Alice, who had already changed into exquisite armor and was holding her ancestral holy sword, also smiled prettyly with anticipation on her face.

"Dragons... I've only heard of them in heroic stories. So... if we succeed in slaying a dragon, will we become heroes too?"

Nero: "Hmm! That's only natural, isn't it? Maybe soon there'll be a heroic story about us. How about calling it 'Alice's Heroic Tale'?"

Hui Hui complained, "No! It has to be called 'Hui Hui Heroic Tale'!"

Dragon.

In many worlds, it is the most famous, legendary and powerful monster, a terrifying existence worthy of being called the "King of Monsters".

In the Type-Moon world, pure-blooded dragons are at least the top-level existence among fantasy species. Even among Heroic Spirits, only first-class Heroic Spirits have the ability to kill dragons.

In many heroic stories, killing the dragon is always regarded as the ultimate mission of the brave protagonist, and there is never a shortage of dragon slayers in the myths and legends of various regions.

Siegfried in German mythology, Sigurd in Norse mythology, St. George in Christian mythology, and Cadmus in ancient Greek mythology.

Yes, you are right, there are dragons in this country.

This was also what Nero heard from passers-by, that a real dragon was arrogantly occupying the country's largest gold mine.

Although Nero was not very interested in taking the gold mines back from the dragon and returning them to the country, he was interested in the great cause of "slaying the dragon"!

In other words, she longs for the honor of being a "dragon-slaying hero"!

"Come to think of it, this seems to be the first time I've encountered a real dragon..."

If you miss this opportunity, you will miss it forever!

Nero's plan was also unanimously approved by others...

"I don't want to! Why would you let this goddess do such a dangerous thing? You actually want to eradicate the dragon. Are you all idiots with abandoned brains and atrophied cerebellums?!"

"Why should I be called an idiot by a useless idiot like you——!"

Damn it, if Kazuma's situation wasn't more important and Aqua wasn't allowed to cause trouble, Nero wouldn't be willing to bring this burden along.

"So, although it's not what I want, please come with us."

"No! No! I want to go home! Let me go home--!"

While letting out a shrill wail, Aqua dug her ten fingers into the ground, and after being dragged by Nero, she left ten long claw marks on the ground.

…………

Dragon.

In terms of life form, it can be said to be at the top of the pyramid.

In many worlds, such as High School, dragons possess power that even surpasses that of the gods, and are feared by them.

The giant membrane wings that are big enough to cover the sky and the sun when unfolded, the dragon's breath that can melt the earth, the hard scales that have extremely high physical and magical resistance, and the dragon's might that can make most creatures surrender.

It’s not known whether to say it was lucky or unfortunate, but Nero and others encountered the dragon before they even reached the mine.

The moment he saw the dragon, Nero felt like his eyes were almost blinded.

The reason is simple, because this is a giant dragon with a golden body.

Maybe it stayed in the gold mine for too long and ate too much gold ore, which is why it became like this.

Chapter 340: Fighting the Golden Dragon

The golden dragon proudly raised its head, breathing out scorching breath, and its golden vertical pupils looked down at the ants that invaded its territory.

Nero noticed that after the giant dragon appeared, Huihui and Youyou had been trembling all over and their faces were very pale.

Could it be Long Wei?

Dragon species are the most advanced existence among all living beings. Their dragon might is an absolute suppression on the life level, which is similar to the pressure of gods.

The only ones who were unaffected by the dragon's might were the stronger Nero and Alice, and...

"Nero! I've hit the jackpot! This creature is called the Golden Dragon, and it's the most expensive of all dragons! Eating its meat allows you to jump several levels at once, and its blood can be used to craft an ultra-rare potion—an upgrade potion. Its terrifyingly hard horns and scales can be crafted into the highest-quality weapons and armor. What's before us is a veritable treasure trove!"

Aqua was obviously terrified on the way here, constantly shouting that she wanted to go home, just like Zhu Bajie who kept muttering about dividing the luggage and returning home on the journey to obtain the scriptures. However, after seeing the golden dragon, she became the most excited among everyone.

Maybe he lost all his money in the casino not long ago, so he saw the value of this golden dragon.

It was when Nero finished listening to Aqua's introduction that he tilted his head.

Golden dragon?

Wang Qiuer?

Could it be the Nine Sons of the Dragon God? If I pluck out the spine of the golden dragon, can I obtain the divine artifact Golden Dragon Spear?

Hmm... after thinking about it, I'd better forget it. Being a spearman is not very auspicious.

Perhaps sensing Aqua's extremely explicit, burning gaze, as if she were sizing up some valuable commodity, the golden dragon opened its mouth and let out an earth-shaking roar.

"Roar--!!"

It was this roar that brought Aqua back to her senses from her frenzy, allowing her to see clearly the gaping abyss that was just within reach.

"Woooaa! Nero, save me!"

Before Nero could react at all, Aqua ran behind him in fear.

At this moment, the golden dragon's claws slammed down.

"Oh!"

Even if it only relies on its physical fitness, the dragon can crush most monsters.

Shaking the mountains and holding up the sky, these descriptions show how terrifying the power of the dragon is.

At this moment, Nero truly experienced this powerful force that was said to be able to shake mountains.

The unleashed force shattered the earth, and the aftermath stirred up a strong wind. Without time to react, Huihui and the others were blown away without any resistance.

The entire mountain trembled at the golden dragon's claw.

The sunken pit was covered with hideous cracks like spider webs.

In the middle of this deep pit, Nero, half of his body was buried in the ground, with veins bulging on his cheeks and arms. He held the big sword in both hands and struggled to resist the dragon claw as big as a hill above his head.

"Damn...that was pretty intense."

Nero, whose strength value is only D, naturally cannot block the dragon's claw. Perhaps only Hercules, the Hercules who dared to hold up the sky in place of the giant Atlas, can do such a thing.

However... Nero has [Imperial Privileges].

The force pressing on his body continued to increase, and Nero felt that his arms and waist were about to break, but he was still able to force a smile.

"I am the Emperor of Rome! Nero Claudius! How could there be anything I cannot do?"

"Hercules can even hold up the sky with his arms. It's just a giant dragon... Watch me flip it over for you to see!!"

[Superhuman strength]

[Brave]

【Magic Release】

With a roar of anger, Nero actually relied on his petite body and pushed back the dragon's claws with trembling hands.

Losing to the ant in the contest of strength, the golden dragon's vertical pupils revealed astonishment.

Immediately afterwards, a figure holding a red and black sword appeared in front of it.

His sore hands tightly gripped the hilt of the sword. He might have some muscle strain, but it would not affect the subsequent battle.

Nero's focused emerald eyes clearly reflected the figure of the dragon. He rushed straight towards the majestic figure and slashed with his sword.

[Dragon Slayer]——Special attack against dragons.

[Beast Killer]——Special attack against fierce beasts.

[Giant Beast Hunter]——Special attack against super giants.

The sword flashed, and dragon blood as hot as magma spurted out.

With the triple special attack, if this were a game, you would see the Golden Dragon's health bar drop significantly.
