The best territory designer of all time - Episode 300
300fury. Let's make a bet (2)
“if! Do you have the confidence not to vomit from one punch from me?!”
……Kaw! Wow... … ! Kyaa……!
Lloyd's quick shout echoed throughout the plains..
It also seeped into the eardrums of Bingryong, who was preparing the magic..
Perhaps it was because of the absurd content contained in that cry..
Tyranus tilted his head..
“what?”
Bingryong felt absurd..
A bewildered laugh naturally flowed out..
“What nonsense are you talking about? Just for your punches? Am I a dragon? Are you sure you won't vomit??”
“yes!”
“……Have you lost your mind because of fear??”
“No, no!”
“I think that's right. Don't be too afraid. There will be no pain. Just relax, because if you lose consciousness, like falling asleep, everything will be over..”
Paaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa……!
Even while he was tilting his head and laughing, Bingryong’s magic was still being prepared..
Lloyd's cries became more urgent..
“I'm not crazy! I'm serious! Are you saying that because you are insecure and afraid?!”
……Kaw! Wow... … ! Kyaa……!
An annoying shout that pierces your eardrums.
Wrinkles appeared between Bingryong’s eyebrows..
“under. Are you insecure and afraid? I?”
“yes! Actually, I didn't throw a punch.!”
Lloyd raised his fist..
I swung it around excitedly..
I hit the ground..
By mobilizing Mana Heart’s mana,.
Loaded with wildly amplified mana with a three-pronged circle.
When I hit it, a stone on the floor cracked and crumbled..
He looked up at Bingryong with triumphant eyes..
“How is it? I'm sure you've seen it?”
“……her.”
The laughter coming from Bingryong’s mouth became deeper..
There was also a sense of absurdity in the way he looked down at Lloyd..
“This is ridiculous. You can even see what's inside so clearly. You, you must have been intentionally showing off a petty punch. He must be trying to provoke me with that punch and get me to agree to a bet. Isn't that so??”
“yes, that's right!”
“Did you think such a shallow trick would work for me??”
“yes!”
“why?”
“Aren’t I going to get sick anyway?!”
……Kaw! Wow... … ! Kyaa……!
Lloyd's cry, which somehow became sad, pinched my eardrums..
That wasn't all.
Lloyd suddenly had tears in his eyes..
Rub your hands together as if you are praying.
He was pleading pathetically towards Bingryong..
“In fact, even if my fists are strong, what good will they be to the great Tyrannus? By the way. Just think about my situation. Anyway, I'm in a situation where I'm going to die either way, so I think I should make this bet at least once so that if I die, it'll be less unfair.…….”
“Hmm.”
“So please just ask me this one time. Great Bingryong? Can't you just pretend that you're granting a dying man's wish and agree to a bet just once??”
“Tsk, but does the bet really have to be like that??”
“yes. I hope so.”
“why?”
“Wouldn't that be something to brag about in the afterlife? I'm the one who once hit a dragon's solar plexus. So, please allow me just this once, with the thought that it will give me something to remember for a saga in exchange for money for the afterlife, yes.?”
“…….”
“No, it's the heart of winter that I had so well, but it flies in from nowhere and says it doesn't matter if you die or not, so isn't that how you kill a living person? But you can't even accept a bet of this size? Yes.?”
“…….”
In the end, tears like chicken droppings fell from Lloyd's eyes..
It went down my cheek and down my chin..
The runny nose also came out profusely..
But Lloyd didn't care.
I'm praying with all my heart?
‘Of course not! What kind of truth is this?!’
There is no need for a saga to brag about in the afterlife..
I don't have even one gram of intention to die here like this..
Even if you roll a windmill in a dog poop field, this life is much better..
That's why the chicken-poop-like tears I'm shedding right now?
Of course it was an act.
Lloyd also added a reason that Bingryong might be interested in..
“So, that is. Think about it, okay? Even after all this, I am a member of the Dragon King sponsorship membership. You say you'll kill me regardless, but don't you feel a little uncomfortable? But what if you place a bet? Tyranus, no, wouldn’t King Taeyong also have a valid justification? yes?”
“Hmm, does this mean I didn't just recklessly kill my son, no, a human being supported by the Dragon King?.”
“That's it! The appearance changes. because! Won't you end up killing me after making a fair bet??”
“……That's kind of plausible..”
“Right? I guess so.?”
“Hmm.”
Bingryong Tyranus nodded inwardly..
‘After listening to it, I realized that there was nothing wrong with what that person said..’
A human being supported by the Dragon King.
It was a bit burdensome to kill such a person..
Even if the reason was to retrieve the Heart of Winter from this side, it was like that..
‘But if you bet as that person said, things will change. Betting is an act of mutual agreement and promise..’
Even if I kill that person?
After mutual agreement and promise, he was killed..
There is no pressure on yourself and you are in good shape..
In the end, Bingryong nodded..
“good night. What you say makes sense..”
Pusss……!
Bingryong’s magic finally stopped..
Lloyd inwardly breathed a sigh of relief..
And, wiping away tears, he spoke in a trembling voice..
“Thank you for granting the wish of a lowly human being.!”
“Well, it's no big deal..”
“no! Thank you very much!”
“……Hurry up and bet.”
“All right. Then I want you to set the rules for betting..”
“rules of betting?”
“yep.”
Lloyd nods..
Seizing the opportunity, I quickly opened my mouth..
“It's a life-threatening bet. If the rules are vague, isn't it likely that different words will come out later??”
“Well, that's right, but.”
“That's why we set the rules.”
“……Well, whatever you say.”
“thank you To sum up, as I said before, I will only punch King Taeyong once. The area is the solar plexus, and King Taeyong is not allowed to take any defensive action..”
“Does this mean that I just need to give it a gentle hug??”
“yep.”
“So, if there's nothing wrong with me?”
“King Taeyong wins. Instead, if King Taeyong vomits, I will win..”
“under. Vomit. Well, let’s say so..”
“Thank you for your generous acceptance..”
“What is gratitude? There's no way I'd vomit from your fist anyway. Anyway, if I win, I will take the Heart of Winter from you. Is it okay??”
“yes. Instead, if by chance I win, I won't give up the heart of winter..”
“i get it. Of course that won't happen.”
“what… … I guess so..”
Lloyd sighed with a somewhat bitter and vague look in his eyes..
Bingryong Tyranus asked with a slightly sad expression..
“So, is that bet being made here??”
“no. I wish they moved the location.”
“A place? why?”
“Because this is the village of the Centaur tribe..”
“so?”
“By any chance, if King Taeyong were to vomit here, it would be a huge nuisance to the Centaur tribesmen..”
“haha. I won't have to vomit.”
“I think so too. But still, there is an emergency..”
“……Tsk. Yeah, I understand..”
Bingryong was once again at a loss..
The more I talked to that person, the more absurd and absurd it became..
But, since it was a request from someone who was going to die soon, I thought I should at least grant it..
‘Because I didn't rebel or fight back just because I didn't want to die..’
That aspect of Lloyd gave Bingryong extra points (?).
In the end, Bingryong nodded..
“good night. Then I'll let you go where you want.”
“thank you, thank you!”
“Hurry up and get moving.”
“yep!”
Lloyd internally clenched his fists..
I quickly pulled down the corner of my mouth that was about to rise and turned around..
I walked towards the outside of the Charcoal Wind Tribe village..
The centaur tribesmen are still looking at us in fear, hiding in the stables..
I passed through it and came out..
“Lloyd, what are you thinking?.”
Javiel hurriedly caught up to the side..
He walked side by side and whispered with serious eyes..
“Punching a dragon. I can't believe I'll upset the dragon with that. Is there a method you have in mind?.”
“uh.”
“Do you really think that such a thing is possible?.”
“uh. of course.”
Lloyd whispered and smiled..
“This bet, I'll win.”
“How on earth do you mean that?.”
“well.”
“…….”
Javiel was at a loss for words..
Honestly, no matter how much I thought about it, I couldn't understand it..
I'm going to hit the dragon's solar plexus with my bare fist..
I can't believe I'm going to upset the dragon with just such a punch..
Risking your life on such a hopeless and unlikely bet?.
I was filled with worry inside..
Could it be that Lloyd’s judgment was clouded?.
Because of the pressure of an enormous dragon that suddenly appeared.
Being weighed down by the dragon's inevitable, fatal demands..
Could it be that I made a decision that was close to a mistake?.
Isn’t that why you’re being so meaningless?.
Haviel's eyes turned solemn..
“Lloyd.”
“uh. why.”
“It can't go on like this.”
“what.”
“This is a wrong judgment. It's not too late now. Get ready.”
“Ready, what??”
“Run away. I will buy you time.”
“……Please fight that dragon?”
“yes.”
“Tsk. Oh my gosh.”
“But Lloyd, when you have the slightest chance,…….”
“Do you think I'm crazy?”
“…….”
“Answer me. Do I look like a crazy person now?.”
“…….”
Javiel tried to say yes.
But Lloyd spoke first..
“Who was it that said that the more crazy I look, the more you have to trust me??”
“…….”
“You. you said so It's still like that. Do you think I'm crazy? Then believe it.”
“But Lloyd.”
“Everyone has thoughts. I have some prepared as well. So, that is. If I fail, then. got it?”
“…….”
“Even if you don't worry, I'll run away on my own. Okay, we're here..”
Lloyd stopped walking..
A place about a few hundred meters away from the village of the Chardolbaram tribe..
It was a place where there was a stream that was the source of drinking water for the tribesmen..
“Great Tyrannus, this is where I wish to place my bet..”
“is it. It's nothing special.”
“You will. Actually, I wanted to mentally prepare while walking..”
“Is that why you were talking to the silver-haired guy next to you the whole time you were walking?.”
“Yeah, I just want to say goodbye..”
The confident smile he showed to Javiel the entire time he was walking was nowhere to be seen..
The moment you turn towards Bingryong.
Lloyd's expression changed to a crying mode faster than light..
I sigh as if I'm about to fall off the ground at any moment..
Somberly, as if preparing for the imminent death.
On the one hand, I feel sad, as if I'm afraid to die.
With a slightly pale face, I bit my lower lip and looked up at Bingryong..
“Then, let’s get ready. Excuse me, but could you please stand here??”
“Let's do that.”
Boom, boom!
Bingryong Tyranus stood in his place..
But Lloyd shook his head slightly..
“I'm really sorry. Could you please take a half step to the left??”
“why?”
“Since you're standing there right now, I think it might be a little uncomfortable when I punch you. It's only a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so wouldn't it be unfair if I didn't do my best??”
“Well, if that's the case.”
Bingryong snorted..
That guy is going to get sick anyway..
With that in mind, I followed Lloyd's words and obediently took half a step..
In the process, Bingryong's left hind foot stepped on the stream water..
Cheolpuchak!
A stream about as deep as a person's waist was crushed by the soles of Bingryong's feet..
But Bingryong didn’t care at all..
Anyway, it was a huge Bingryong..
For Bingryong, stepping into a stream that was only about 1 meter deep was like stepping on slightly wet bathroom tiles..
“Now then, let the betting begin..”
coo coo coo coo coo coo coo…….
Bingryong stands tall on his own two feet.
The front paws were raised as if shouting for national independence..
She exposed her abdomen in a confident, defenseless posture..
“Come, human..”
“All right.”
Lloyd nodded..
He climbed up Bingryong’s hind legs with a rather solemn expression..
As if I were rock climbing, I passed my thighs with a whimper, stuck to my abdomen, and climbed hard..
And finally arrived at the solar plexus.
“Well then, I'll hit it.?”
“However much.”
Lloyd raised his right fist..
I clenched my fists.
I stretched it out like that..
Didn't really load any mana.
I didn't even rotate the three-pronged circle..
His punch towards Bingryong’s solar plexus was ordinary..
The sound of the hit was also like that..
puck!
It just sounded like a regular fist hitting the desk..
That was it..
1seconds, 2 seconds, 3 seconds, 5 seconds, 10 seconds.
Nothing happened as some time passed..
The complexions of everyone who was watching this turned pale..
Javiel held the handle of his sword with a stern expression..
Yongyong prepared to charge with a solemn look..
A smile appeared on the lips of Bingryong Tyranus..
“Well, I accepted your bet, and this is the result. It may be a pity for you, but despite your punches, nothing happened in the end.…….”
It was that moment.
Just when Bingryong was about to declare his victory.
Ding dong.
[Any accolades you have will take effect..]
[You struck the opponent's abdomen in terrain with a depth of more than 50 centimeters. As a result, the condition for activating the compliment of ‘water depth of more than 50 centimeters in the sea, river, lake, bathtub, etc.’ has been met..]
[A powerful strike that makes any opponent vomit everything in one blow has been activated..]
A refreshing message filled Lloyd's eyes..
and at the same time.
“……Oh my goodness-”
Bingryong spit out a majestic obite.
