24. Summary (1)

Yuma gazed at the sky where the black dragon had disappeared.

‘f*ck.’

Dragon Heart.

I didn’t get that.

Not only the dragon heart, but the dragon body itself disappeared from this world.

But the regret did not last that long. Because it was literally a moment close to life and death. There’s no time to even think about loot.

Yuma looked around.

However, she found the gaze of people looking at her unusual.

A reaction of surprise, awe and admiration that went beyond that was evident.

The citizens of the county were seen trembling in a kneeling, bowing position. And dozens of knights and soldiers were doing the same.

“…A hero, a hero who defeated the evil dragon!!”

“I want to spread the name of the Dragon Slayer. Please let me know!”

It was like fanatics with a saint in front of them.

Jerbeok

Yuma just walked in front of her politely. Her destination was inside the Count’s castle. It was to check how her eldest son Kaisen was doing.

Medical room inside the Count’s castle.

A middle-aged man was lying on a bed in the medical room. Count Rubelt, who was obviously middle-aged, had the face of an old man who had already become decrepit.

“What is the count’s condition?”

Kaisen raised his head at Yuma’s voice.

Kaisen also had awe in his eyes. When the black dragon Arc Leon spread his huge wings wide and climbed the sky, he couldn’t help but notice the presence of that being, even if he didn’t want to know.

So I saw it.

Elcam—Acreon disappearing in thin air.

The scene where Yuma destroys a black dragon bigger than the Count’s castle with a single blow.

Kaisen stared at the therapist who continued to examine Count Rubelt’s body.

The therapist slowly shook his head.

“…I’m sorry. I don’t think any significant changes will occur in this state. Even if you regain consciousness, it won’t take more than a week. The demonic energy has deeply seeped into your entire body.”

Yuma stared at Kai Sen, who seemed to be in agony.

However, these concerns were entirely Kaisen’s responsibility.

The person who should lead the county from now on was Kaisen.

“The dragon’s cave that your knight saw. Do you remember the location?”

Kai Sen nodded his head.

“I haven’t heard the exact location, but I think it’s probably one of the two large caves to the south. The area my engineer supervised is nearby.”

Yuma noticed a strange look in her eyes.

Where dragons nest. That place becomes the Dragon Lair.

Even though it had been less than half a year since Arc Leon settled in the county, she thought there would be something left.

***

A blue-eyed princess with long pure white hair.

Princess Brigitte 1 was dumbfounded by the news she had just received.

“…You killed a black dragon? Not a hatchling, but a complete adult?”

Viscount Bennet, one of Brigitte’s supporters, bowed to her.

“That’s right. The information is accurate because it arrived urgently through the Information Guild.”

Bennett swallowed her saliva.

“It is clear that the princess’s representative, Lord Yuma, killed the dragon.”

Bridgette could hardly close her wide-open mouth.

Viscount Bennet continued.

“It is said that a black dragon was seen rising into the sky in the transit city of Akan. It is also said that a black dragon was observed in the Blue Magic Tower.”

Bennett’s forehead was sweating.

“It is said that a huge dragon was even seen disappearing with a red flash.”

Bridgette slowly opened her mouth.

“What about the body?”

“…It is said that Lord Yuma eliminated the dragon so completely that not a single ash was left behind.”

How strong does an attack have to be to completely erase a dragon?

Brigitte no longer had any idea what kind of person she had recruited.

Brigitte barely came to her senses.

“Are there any other important details?”

“A request for military assistance has been received from the Marquis of Tornell, who guards the southern front of the Empire.”

Marquis de Tornell.

A border guard family that guards the border at the southernmost tip of the empire.

It was very rare for the Marquis of Tornell to request military support.

“It is said that the movements of the barbarian nation of Pyneton are unusual.”

Pyneton, a barbarian country.

The reason why Paineton is called a barbarian country is because it expanded its land in a short period of time. With very barbaric force.

Pineton started as a kingdom. He even conquered Rommel’s kingdom above his own. That was 7 years ago. After that incident, Kamet began to be called the Conqueror.

“Originally, when there was a request for such special troop support, the Imperial Tenth Sea provided that support.”

Viscount Bennet sighed.

The current state of the Empire’s Tenth Throne was in disarray.

Thanks to someone, it has suddenly become the 6th seat of the empire.

“It seems that the Marquis of Tornel has designated Yuma as special troop support for cutting the Empire’s Ten Seas in half. That’s enough proof of his power.”

If you know that I caught the dragon this time, I will want Yuma even more passionately.

“But Yuma-nim is carrying out the task given to her by the princess…”

Bennett looked at Brigitte’s eyes. Bennett was one of Brigitte’s closest associates, and he knew about the oracle that had been passed down for Brigitte. So I also knew the importance of the mission Yuma was carrying out.

Finding the blue-haired sword saint was an urgent priority for Princess Brigitte.

Knock knock!

At that time, someone suddenly knocked on the door from outside.

-This is the Chamberlain. The princess.

Michael, the 1st Princess Brigitte’s direct escort knight who was standing next to the door, quickly opened the door. Standing in front of the door was Roian, the 1st princess’s palace chamberlain.

He was an old man with a neatly trimmed white mustache.

“Roian.”

As Brigitte approached, Roian slowly opened his mouth.

“The saint says there is an oracle that must be conveyed to Her Majesty the Princess.”

Trust.

“I understand.”

From noble mtl dot com

Brigitte was ready to leave immediately.

***

Hestia, the Miao swordsman, pricked up her scarlet cat ears.

“…Yuma is a dragon slayer, Yuma is a dragon slayer.”

Clone looked at Hestia, who was repeating the same words from before. Hestia’s green eyes shone.

“How can you defeat such a huge dragon alone!”

“I guess so.”

Clone stared at Yuma’s back as he headed towards the cave.

Every time I see her, I see Yuma’s power surpassing the limits of her common sense.

How long would it take to train to have that kind of power in a human body?

Clone felt thirsty again. Thirst for growth.

Yuma entered a huge cave.

The ceiling of the cave was covered with thick, icicle-like stalactites.

Water droplets formed at the tip of the stalactite.

Yuma walked inside the cave.

Hestia and Clone’s eyes widened.

Clear traces of life remained in the huge cave.

“…Wow, they made it really rare!”

Hestia scanned the cave with her mouth wide open.

The cave exuded a majesty that could literally be seen as a dragon lair.

A rock display stand that appears to have been made by magic.

And countless jewels placed on the shelf.

And.

“It seems true that they ate the people they kidnapped one after the other.”

Clone’s fine eyebrows furrowed.

Gems and rocks arranged as if on display. And unlike the various weapons, there were torn clothes stuck in the corner.

It was evidence that they chewed up people.

“The Earldom is going to be in chaos.”

At the order of Prince Kaisen, the two soldiers who followed Yuma and his party clicked their tongues. Clothes of missing people.

If the acquaintances of the missing people see it, they will notice.

“We’ll take care of your clothes, wizard.”

The soldier bowed his head deeply towards Clone.

“Yes.”

Clone answered like that. I looked at the clothes carefully. There was compassion on his face as he looked through the clothes.

Yuma is among all kinds of things. She touched one object that stood out the most. She activated the search plan.

That thing that looks like red ore.

[Vulkan─Decht’s Dragon Heart]

Dragon heart of the red dragon ‘Vulkan Decht’.

This is the heart of an ancient dragon that has been dead for 1301 years.

It is impossible to predict what kind of power is inherent.

It was a dragon heart.

“Clone.”

Yuma called Clone.

“Yes, Yuma!”

Clone walked quickly at Yuma’s call.

“Can you read this?”

In the place where the dragon heart was placed, letters that looked similar to a magic language were written.

“Friend…It says in memory of Decht’s peaceful rest.”

There was anger in Clone’s eyes.

He was a very funny guy.

He is a man who chews up humans like meat to restore his own body. He was honoring his friend’s serenity.

Clone looked at the dragon heart in Yuma’s hand with a stern expression.

“Is it Dragon Heart?”

“I guess so.”

Yuma’s eyes turned to the clone.

“Do you want it?”

Clone shook his head.

“No, it’s something I can’t afford. I don’t have the right to have it.”

Yuma stared at the Dragon Heart closely.

Acreon. Does he really want to protect his friendship with his friend so he won’t take this Dragon Heart?

Would it have been possible to restore magical power and body in a short period of time without the hassle of eating people?

Not even a green dragon. There was no way a black dragon could have such a human side.

‘Dragons cannot take dragon hearts that have different attributes from their own. He’ll die if he does that.’

It seemed that Loop Blood’s formula was functioning in the same way in this world.

‘If I eat this now, I will die.’

A strong body. Was such that even a sword master with a mana heart overflowing with high-density mana would die if he just took it.

However, if Yuma, who is literally nothing more than a criminal, swallows this now, she will literally die instantly.

‘In … All I had to do was take the blood of a demon king-level demon and the sprout of the golden rule together.’

I don’t know if the game’s formula will work in this realistic world.

First, Yuma put [Vulkan—Decht’s Dragon Heart] Into his subspace pocket.

The Dragon Heart that I couldn’t get from Acreon. As a result, I got it.

“If you have any weapons you need, take them.”

Yuma spoke to Hestia while looking at the swords and spears placed on the rock display stand.

“Ooooot!”

Hestia’s eyes lit up like a child at a toy corner.

‘After all, it’s a sword spirit.’

The twelve swords that were in the subspace pocket of the sword god Kronos. All of those swords were far superior to the swords Acreon had collected.

So there was no need to take care of it.

***

It has become night.

Yuma and his party returned to the castle.

“Awake, awake!”

The therapist’s cry rang out.

Count Rubelt’s eyes, lying on the bed, slowly opened.
