Defiled Hero Chapter 031
Defiled Hero
A Kind World
Come to think of it, there were rumors of a dragon living in the high mountains beyond this point, weren’t there?
「......While I’m at it, I’ll also be dealing with a dragon I see.」 (Izayoi)
「......Dra, gon?」 (Tear)
「Yeah, a dragon.」 (Izayoi)
「Master! Are you planning to fight the dragon, an S-ranked monster? Will you be okay?」 (Uri)
「......Elder sister, master is strong. Something like a dragon is no match for him.」 (Reri)
「Well it’s an S-rank monster after all. As expected of something that will become my opponent. Although you might not get it right now, it’s been said that if you were to defeat an S-rank monster by yourself, you would be able to become Emperor rank. Uri, Reri, what do you think of giving it a shot? You might be able to become Emperor rank yourselves.」 (Izayoi)
「Fighting monsters is not within our field of expertise! Since Uri and Reri are specialized in surprise attacks, it’ll be no good!」 (Uri)
「......That’s how it is. Furthermore, since we are spies, it will be bad if we stood out.」 (Reri)
「I see. Being Emperor rank a pain after all. That’s why when dealing with a master it’ll usually become like this...... It was also a pain for me.」 (Izayoi)
Although I had regrets, there’s nothing I can do. I’ll continue forward from here. With dragons and servants, we’ll gain a considerable amount of war potential.
With this, Tear’s anxiety and concern have almost completely disappeared.
In order to reach the top of the mountain, Rigolo steadily increased his alt.i.tude. A short time later, we made it to the peak of the mountain.
The top of the mountain wasn’t sharp. It was a flat, craggy cliff that continued throughout the mountain range. The cliff was not ordinary, it contained ores and minerals.
Is this a mine?
Since people wouldn’t trespa.s.s into this area, there might be something rare. I’ll look for it afterwards. If there are materials for weapons, I’ll give a request to the blacksmith Bogan to process it.
Once I finish dealing with the guild master and have my Emperor rank restriction released, I’ll hand blacksmith Bogan a letter of introduction.
For the sake of repairing my weapon, I dealt with the trustworthy but irresponsible and stubborn blacksmith, but I won’t have to pay the original cost. However I’ll have to prepare the materials.
(Astrea, is the dragon here?) (Izayoi)
『Wait a bit...... Ah, it’s at a distance but it's flying this way. Moreover, there are three of them.』 (Astrea)
Three? Aside from me, aiming for them would be dangerous.
Let’s end this quickly.
「Oi, the dragon is coming. Hide yourselves. After that, Fiere and Reri, get off of me.」 (Izayoi)
As they hid on the opposite side of the large cliff, I would be the first to reduce my opponents' strength. By weakening them, we’ll be able to make them our servants, but I’ll need to injure them until they're powerless.
It’ll be fine if I don’t use my sword, right?
After sheathing the sword in its scabbard, I warmed up by rotating my shoulders. I could see their flying figures approaching. As expected, they’re pretty big, huh.
The two in the back weren’t enormous, but the one they were accompanying was absolutely gigantic. It’s going to be hard to weaken that one.
The two red dragons in the back raised a roar as they approached.
First, I’ll take the two in the back out.
Kicking off the ground, I forcefully threw myself into the air.
Leaping from one cliff edge to another, I jumped into the sky.
Since I was jumping at the speed of a bullet, they weren’t able to react. The dragons must have thought that I suddenly disappeared.
I seized a dragon by the neck.
Spreading my hands, it was definitely not enough to completely surround the dragon’s thick neck. It was rough.
「―Fall.」 (Izayoi)
With all of my strength I twisted its body, and threw the large dragon over my shoulder.
I aimed the dragon at the other one when I threw it.
They were unable to communicate, and from the two dragons a noise similar to the impact of a semi-truck could be heard. The two dragons collided with one another.
「*GYAAAAAAAA*」 (Red Dragons)
And so the two dragons fell.
「......What, with this much they’ve been knocked out? What a disappointment.」 (Izayoi)
The two dragons that landed the mountain wall fainted.
「You’re next.」 (Izayoi)
Comparing this dragon to the red dragons, this one was about double the size. Its skin was like black colored armor. It had an aura of intimidation in a different league compared to the monsters I’ve fought till now.
「*GAAAAAAAAA......*」 (Dragon)
With a breath similar to a voice, it had come down before me.
The ground shook, and I was. .h.i.t by a sudden gust.
Looking through the fingers I covered my face with, I confirmed the presence in front of me.
「What? You’re not going to attack?」 (Izayoi)
The dragon majestically stood there.
「......You, what are you, he says.」 (Tear)
(TN: The dragon uses 御主/おぬし/Onushi, which is an archaic form of “you” that a samurai or an old guy would use.)
Before I knew it, Tear had come out.
Being able to translate what it’s saying, it’s probably something with high intellect like Rigolo.
「I’m just an adventurer. My objective here is to make you ser...... my friends.」 (Izayoi)
「......Just like you humans, you think you know your place, he says.」 (Tear)
「I see. Then pick. Stay silent and become our friend, or be half-killed and become our friend.」 (Izayoi)
「......How laughable. Just like you humans. Do you think that you can injure me, against my flesh of steel, he says.」 (Tear)
「Don’t worry. My body is also as strong as steel.」 (Izayoi)
「......Very well. Then if you are able to leave a scratch on my body, try it. If you are able to do so, then I will listen to what you have to say. If you are unable to, then I will kill you, he says.」 (Tear)
「A scratch, is it? Got it.」 (Izayoi)
I moved close enough to the dragon’s large body so that I could touch it. The scales seem hard, don’t they. Let’s see which of our bodies is harder.
「......You aren’t planning to strike my body with your fist are you? Impossible. A futile struggle. Try it. Come, come try it～」 (Dragon)
Extending my index finger, stopping it with my thumb, I charged my strength.
I, with all of my strength, shot a forehead flick at the dragon.
*Crack*
(TN: The sound when something fragile starts to crack, like gla.s.s or ice.)
On the dark scales, a spider web shaped crack emerged.
「......There was no way you could injure me right～? My body～ My body～ Hurts, it hurts, he says.」 (Tear)
I felt pain in my fingers. In other words―
「―It’s just an ordinary wound isn’t it?」 (Izayoi)
I clenched my fist, and held it as if I were going to strike the dragon.
「*GAAAAAAaaaaa......*」 (Dragon)
「......I’ll become your friend, he says.」 (Tear)
「You should have said that from the beginning.」 (zayoi)
A part of the dragon’s scales had been crushed, and as he bled, his previous personality disappeared as he hung his head.
And like that, we were able to talk things out and build up a friendship.
