729 - - 729る 好るる?
The Dragon King is still smiling his lowly smile. He walks slowly and stops just in time to come between me and Malvern and the others.
"I am the reigning leader of the Dragon Clan. Under my command, these men will become more docile or even more aggressive. It will be hard for you to deal with such a large number of Malverns. I can be your go-between. In return ......"
"GAAHHHH!"
As if interrupting the Dragon King's words, Malvern let out a roar. One of the creatures in the sky swooped down on the Dragon King and slammed into him. There was a loud clash of metal against metal. The Dragon King, however, did not move and was still smiling.
"...... are you under attack?"
"Attack? What are you talking about?
What are you talking about? He has a look on his face that says, "I'm sorry, I can't help it. It certainly looked like the dragon had just attacked, but had it not? Certainly, a charge with such force usually blows them up. Seeing that he did not move at all, I wonder if it was a greeting of some kind.
As if to counteract my doubts, the dragon that had just slammed into the Dragon King came down to the ground and was shoveling the ground with its paws. Could this be? At that moment, Malvern rushed toward us at a tremendous speed. I put my hand on the hilt of my Holy Sword, and I drop to the ground to get into position.
Gaki-n!
Again I hear the sound of metal crashing against metal. Malvern had struck the Dragon King with his body. Not just once, but several times, as he shakes his head and head-butts him. But it seems to have no effect on the Dragon King. I had thought that he might have put up some kind of warding, but seeing how his body moves every time he is hit, it seems that he has no such warding and is being attacked.
"Woo-hoo-hoo! Ha-ha-ha-ha!"
He laughs while he is under attack. I wonder what's so funny.
"What a lovely man. Are you so happy to see me? You don't have to be so flirtatious!"
What? Is that you flirting with me? It looks to me like it's trying to attack me. I don't know much about dragon ecology: .......
The dragon is still head-butting the Dragon King repeatedly. Some other dragons saw this and swooped down from the sky. One after another, they hit the Dragon King with their bodies. However, the Dragon King is still laughing loudly with no damage.
"Gohaaaah!"
Four new ones came down to the ground. Three of them surrounded the Dragon King and stood up on their hind legs. They were in a posture to shoot their breath.
"Hey! Hey, ......."
A voice leaked out. Even though he was the Dragon King, he would not be unscathed if he was hit by the breaths of three dragons at the same time. I don't like him very much, but I thought that was indeed a bad idea.
Immediately after that, the three dragons released their breaths at the same time. A tremendous blast reached us. If we hadn't put up wards, we would have been blown away easily. I glanced at Sadie and the others, but they were safe. Sidhi crosses his arms in front of his chest and looks worried. Escalina seems to be standing there in a daze, probably hoping that it will be over soon.
The Dragon King, on the other hand, continues to laugh as usual. The three animals have spit out their bracelets and have gone up into the sky. The dragon that had repeatedly head-butted the Dragon King was gone before we knew it. The remaining one is slowly approaching the Dragon King, but to my eyes, it looks like it's just sitting on its hands, as if it's not damaged in any way. He seems to be at a loss as to how to attack.
"As usual, this species is eager to be pampered. But I do not dislike it. You can indulge me to your heart's content.
The Dragon King has a satisfied expression on his face as he says this. I can't help but feel that there is a difference, but I dare to keep my mouth shut. Then the Dragon King opened his mouth again.
What do you think? Malvern and I have a deep bond. They can move at will under my command. If you remove the wards of Aelyria, I will order them to return to their homes at once. ......"
The next thing I knew, the remaining one was coming right up to the Dragon King. Then, just as he opened his big mouth, he bit the Dragon King.
"...... would it be too much for you to fight against so many dragons?"
The dragon bites him on the right shoulder, but the Dragon King continues to talk, paying no heed to such bites. Two dragons swooped down on him from above, one biting his left shoulder and the other biting his head.
"Don't be so stubborn, and don't let the warding 0★△*......"
Since his head is completely inside the dragon's mouth, he seems to be saying something, but I can't make out anything but mumbo-jumbo. Well, I know it's not worth listening to, so I don't feel anything in particular.
A gray light is seen coming from the body of the dragon that is biting the Dragon King's right shoulder. It gradually increases in intensity. Soon, I thought I heard a zzzz, as if something was crumbling, and then the dragon collapsed, as if it were melting.
"Go......Ga......★□△*......!"
The Dragon King is shouting something. He has been bitten on the head, so we cannot understand what he is saying. He wiggles his body and grabs the dragon that is biting his head with his right hand.
The Dragon King's hand glows red. An explosion and the dragon's scream are heard at the same time, and an indescribable sound is heard. The dragon that had just bitten the Dragon King is now only the lower half of its body. It seems that the dragon that had been biting him had been blown away by some kind of fire magic. The face of the Dragon King has also turned black. Could it be that he had been burned by his own fire magic? No, he's not that stupid. While I was thinking this, the Dragon King opened his right hand and held it in front of his face. The area around his hand glowed green. I don't think he's wearing heels. .......
"You cannot speak!"
The Dragon King's face had returned to normal. It seems that he had also burned his own face with fire magic. Ah, I have made up my mind that this creature must not be allowed to come near my daughter.
"If it bites me on both hands and head, I won't be able to speak! No! Let go of me! Let go of me or I'll let you go!"
He vents his anger at the dragon that is biting his left arm. But the dragon does not let go of the Dragon King, and as soon as he lets out an angry "guuuuuuuhhh ......" he turns his head around. The Dragon King's body floats up.
The dragon bites the Dragon King's body and slams his body into the ground. A cloud of smoke rises. It bites his leg and turns his head again. The Dragon King's body shakes as if it is being held on a shelf by something. He slams it to the ground again. He repeats the process over and over again. A thick cloud of smoke rises and the figure disappears.
"I told you to stop!"
An angry shout was heard from the smoke, and a part of it turned red. At that moment, I thought I heard a bang, then a thud, and then silence.
"......All right. What the hell are these guys?"
The Dragon King emerged from the cloud of dust. He glared at Malvern and the others in the sky above.
"...... doesn't look like he likes you at all? In fact, don't you think they hate you?"
"What!"
The Dragon King stared at me with a terrible look on his face. .......
