Never touch Eldmia Egga - Episode 411
The flying dragon that flew out of the inner city seemed to be heading towards us and then disappeared above the clouds in the dark sky..
"One seemed to be flying towards the demons' territory... but where was the other one going??"
"Maybe they were trying to confuse me?"
"Were you trying to disperse the wizards by pretending to attack them? If it's at the level of their drake, it might be enough...."
Unlike the knights who calmed down little by little and played with spoons even though they were seriously frozen and worried, I couldn't shake off the ominous feeling..
The guy who was clearly aiming for this direction disappeared out of sight. If it were an ordinary human being, you might overlook it, but the opponent is a demon who can apply magical power like me..
Of the two remaining drakes, one was flown backwards to be used as a substitute for Pabalma, while the other only moved for a moment to cause some confusion to the wizards who invaded the outer castle.?
If it were me, I would have attacked the command center with the aim of disrupting the rear..
"Why are you doing this, sir??"
"If it were me, I would have moved in and attacked the command center, hidden in the clouds.."
When I said that assumption without hesitation, everyone's eyes were focused on me again..
But there was no response as if that was nonsense. She is close to listening to her with a serious and serious face..
"If you're a human race, you could say it's an attack with a dragon that can only carry two people at most, but the opponent is a demon race, right?."
"...That's a valid opinion. However, if you stay still, the main force can join and launch a joint attack as usual, so is there any reason to move so forcefully? Of course, thanks to Lord Ega, we were able to break through the outer castle in an instant, so we are in a very advantageous position.."
In order to make the raid successful, it would have been necessary to deploy a sufficient number of skilled personnel, so the question is, is there any reason for the Demon King's army to take such a risky gamble? Normally, her questions and rebuttals would have been correct, but in my view, this was closer to a special case..
"It might be different this time."
"May I know why you think that way??"
"Because I have it."
It was really sad that I had to say such self-absorbed nonsense, but it was true. I quickly added an apology to prevent the expressions on the faces of people around me from getting weird..
"There are some big things I have done to the Demon King. Because of that, even the special forces who infiltrated Ethisel tried to kill or capture me. If the priority of the command is high..."
"...What you're saying is that you can see this as an opportunity when Lord Ega appears and rush to it.."
Yeah, this might sound crazy. I think excessive self-consciousness is a disease at this level, but sadly it is reality, so what can you do?.
Of course, I said this with the expectation that there would be comments telling me not to say something that doesn't make sense, but the response I got back was better than expected..
"...It's better to be annoying than to get stabbed in the back if you let your guard down.?"
"We think so too."
Both the knights and Lanje nodded and stood up. Ranje took advantage of the moment I was dumbfounded by that calm decision and said, licking the remaining stew from the corner of her mouth..
"I think we need to hurry up and get the equipment first, then deliver it to the command center. If you're okay..."
Her words, which tried to ask for my companionship, failed to continue..
"Drake discovered! reappeared!"
One of the knights, who took my opinion seriously and was watching the sky, shouted at the top of his voice,.
"Damn it! Everyone spread out! Take care of your armor first! And anyone can run and call the remaining magic units.!"
The flying dragon that appeared, piercing the dark clouds in the sky that were starting to turn red like a spear, had reduced the distance from the inner castle to our command post by almost half in that short period of time..
Of course, the encirclement of the advancing friendly forces was far surpassed. Those who understood that the only thing left to do was shorten the distance in an instant were to act quickly..
"The first flying dragon is approaching! Consider them at least the level of a white general and avoid all troops with insufficient skills! I don't know what kind of guy is approaching! Notify the command as well.!"
Leaving behind Lanje, who was loudly giving orders to those who could not react properly, I focused all my attention on the flying dragon, which was growing bigger by the minute..
Apart from simply being cautious, I had no choice but to do so..
"What is that monster doing again?...?"
Even though there was this distance, I could feel its magic power..
Not only when using magic power, but because the magic power is so powerful that it touches my entire body, I break into a cold sweat. Do demons see things like that around them all the time? I think I understand a little bit why the structure is such that strong people become superiors.?
I don't know anything else, but it's clear that he's a demon that's different from the guys I've met so far..
The only thing that comes to mind is the demon that suddenly appeared in front of me as I moved to protect Esmuye at the Imperial Academy. The demon that I couldn't track down with my eyes, but luckily I didn't have to deal with it because it was at the center of the empire, was clearly stronger than me at the time....
"I have to deal with that now.?"
That guy was worse than that. To the point where it’s really fucking too much..
Just as the curse was about to come out of my mouth, something flashed above the dragon's head, and I instinctively understood that it was an attack..
"damage to all!!"
At that moment, the flying dragon that was flying safely in the sky stumbled greatly and its sparkle disappeared..
In the midst of an intense sense of crisis, I mobilized all my tense nerves to grasp a single javelin. The moment I realized it was a spear, I threw myself to the side with all my might, and an explosion occurred where I was standing just moments ago..
-Kwaaaaang!!
"It's an attack! emergency! emergency!!"
Due to the impact, I couldn't even make a proper fall and rolled over, fixing my eyes on the window that seemed to have suddenly appeared where I was standing..
I'm fine.
As if to prove that the explosion that had just occurred was not caused by magic or anything like that given to the spear, but by simple physical force, the spear that created a pit with a diameter of about 2 meters was completely intact. The table was smashed, chairs flew away, and the whole area was a mess, but there was no time to worry about that..
Because the crazy guy sniping with a spear was still targeting me..
"Lord Egar!"
It was quicker for me to turn my attention to the flying dragon in the sky than to Lanje's cry, which flew off far away because I wasn't prepared for it. Light was flashing once again from above the flying dragon, who was having trouble finding his way around it..
"Anyway, it's a fucked up world.."
The senses of my body, strengthened by the magic I had gathered and wrapped around my body, became even more sensitive, creating a strange sense of disconnection, but anyway, this time I was able to accurately see the flying javelin..
Thanks to you, I have more things to admire. How could I not be surprised when I found out that he didn't just hit me, he was aiming for my head with great precision and threw the spear?.
As soon as I recognized that fact, my helmet protruded and blocked my vision, but I was strongly convinced that if I got hit by that thing, my cervical spine would not be safe even if my helmet was intact, so I jumped forward slightly and stretched out my hand toward the flying spear..
When I'm extremely nervous, the world seems to move slowly. In my past life, I thought it was all bullshit, but here, I painfully feel that that's not the case..
Up until now, I had moved the fastest with that feeling, but not as fast as this time. The javelin thrown by that crazy guy was as fast as going down a slide alone in a world of turtles..
Still, I was able to catch the javelin he threw because I was at the level of tracking, predicting, and preparing with my eyes..
-Quad Deuk!
"Sigh!"
Like a flash, the moment I was hit by the tail swung by the black dragon in the basement of the academy passed by..
I was in such a great shock that I thought my joints, shoulders, and muscles were going to be destroyed. As I looked back on my memories, the feeling that spread within me was that it was still better than then..
"Throwing is...!"
There was a limit to how I could hold on forcibly, so I just changed direction and made a full rotation before I felt the javelin's power decrease..
And I was sure. It would have been impossible to capture it like this when it was in the Empire..
It's absurd, but unlike my recent daily life where I wasn't aware that I was getting stronger, I think it's true that I'm improving little by little..
So... now it was time to see if the attack worked..
"...I can do it too you bastard!!"
The magical power of the entire body swirls like an explosion through the magic organ that feels like it is creaking as it is operated to its limit in a short period of less than a few seconds. At the same time, not only your physical abilities but also your senses become sharper, and the appearance of the flying dragon that you thought was far away begins to appear more clearly..
One with ordinary goat horns and the other with what looked like thick buffalo horns. Judging by the fact that he was carrying a bag full of javelins, the buffalo horn was the culprit..
There was no time to panic or be surprised by the sudden change in my senses, so I adjusted my javelin and threw it at the guy..
The sound of armor hitting each other on overly swollen shoulder muscles was rather pleasant. Even after I threw the javelin, it made an unbelievable roar and flew out of my hand, shooting into the sky as quickly as it hit the ground..
Recently, I was quite confident in throwing an axe, but I was not confident in hitting that distance. Fortunately, the javelin flew very accurately towards the buffalo horn I was aiming for..
Their reaction to the attack was a bit late, perhaps because they were also steadily narrowing the distance rather than simply standing in the air and aiming for long-distance artillery fire. I couldn't see their facial expressions, but I could clearly see that their movements suddenly changed..
However, there was no effective hit. The buffalo horn blocked my attack by sacrificing the javelin bag it was carrying..
Anyway, I wasn't expecting to score a goal with one shot. Catching the javelin he threw and targeting him again with it were simply because I wanted to see how far my actions would work in the face of such overwhelming power..
This is a level where I can praise myself for doing a good job. As soon as the javelin left my hand, I picked it up from the ground and took re-aiming..
"So now let's come down to earth and talk."
Maybe it's because it's the second time, but the javelin is fired into the sky once again, confident that it was thrown much more cleanly than before..
The target this time was the drake he was riding..
