Chapter 108
Immediately battling at full power would adversely effect the dragons honor, so Ill concede the first move to you.
The Green Dragon, who returned to his true form, just his height alone is several meters, with an overwhelming stature. The shiny green scales also seem to have a fitting hardness, but so what even if I cant win, I cant show it.
Then should I give it a go.
The arrow released from
Hmph, in the end, its just that sort of thing. Since your arrows, fired carefully without hindrance, wont pierce, you have absolutely no chance of winning.
The Green Dragon, declaring so, came, while leaping at vast speeds towards this side, to blow me away with his left fore-leg.
Guo!?
I instantly leap backwards to avoid it, so somehow Ive avoided the dragons attack from his foreleg, but due to the wind pressure from the swinging of that mighty foreleg, my body was easily blown away. Im unable to take a proper falling position, so 10% of my HP is blown off as I hit the ground.
Hmph, so it seems that you were just able to avoid a direct it; it seems my movements are dull from getting old.
Fuck you, so youre saying thats not your fastest speed. Are you trying to break my will? I fire off several arrow accordingly, but all of them were repelled.
Tsk, as expected of a dragon, a half-hearted attack wont even make a scratch, huh!?
Its like having a tank with mobility and defense all stuffed in being thrust at you. If I take a single direct hit, Id be destroyed and squashed flat. In contrast, the opposition hasnt taken a bit of damage. If I do this straight-forwardly, theres no chance of me winning.
At least dance an unsightly dance. Youre too easy to kill.
Once again the dragon came attacking by flying at low altitudes. Making avoiding it somehow my utmost priority, I leapt back clumsily and just barely managed to avoid a direct hit, but once again the wind pressure blew me away. On top of that, this time I was sent spinning like a drill, and despite having Physical Ability Reinforcement, I couldnt tell which way was up or down; naturally I wasnt able to do anything like take a safe falling position.
Guwa-
At least I didnt fall on my head. However, that is simply good luck; it goes without saying that this good luck wont continue forever; if it goes on like this, Ill be defeated without causing a single bit of damage to my opponent
Youre like a ball; you raise a groan, then youre blown away.
The Green Dragon indicates that there will no longer be any holding back; well, yeah, first he hasent taken damage, and hes just lightly blowing me away. As opponents, humans are like small ants; just step on them and its over. There isnt any way to quickly overturn the absolute mass of that stature coming at you.
(Poison is also useless, I guess.)
For a moment I thought about using a deadly poison I made from the Suffocation Grass, but I rejected that idea. Rather, if he agitates the wind blows the poison my way, then Id only do myself in. Id rather win in the end if I damage myself; if I just self-destruct, there would be too many regrets.
In other words, on hand, I dont have anything else on hand to use that can produce huge damage other than Enhanced Oil, but even if it smashes into his body, I cant imagine it piercing through the scales. In the end, I truly cant do anything other than persevere If I overlap bad hit with bad hit, in the end the bad hits may pierce through.
Then,
If you cannot pierce, then you can only bash. I switch to Heavy Bludgeoning arrows and released the arrows towards the dragons face, but *clang clang* ,they only bounced off while making a dull sound. So this is no good, huh this is bad; with this, pretty much all my possible methods have disappeared.
Hmph, you cant pierce, so you try bashing. I will acknowledge that switching like that was good, but its only at that level. Dont underestimate a dragons scales!
He said that quickly and came charging a third time. Not good, the speed of this times charge is too fast! I cant avoid that huge frame! The instant I take that direct hit, theres no doubt Im finished!
I thrust the Small Metal Shield in front, activate an Art that quickly but strongly repels an opponents attack,
~~~~!!!!
I cant make a sound. I hit the ground fully. With the world shaking around me, I frantically checked the HP I had left, and I practically couldnt see any red left in my HP meter.
Hou, so you barely managed to hang on. Let us call it the last will of the shield.
When I looked at the shield due to the Green Dragons voice, the Small Metal Shield crumbled, turned into light, and disappeared. Here, one of my partners who has fought with me for a long time, while changing its shape, has completely died.
Then, I must stand. I must make a stand here. I havent lost yet. Its not over.
So you stand once again. Your shields crumbled away, and youre showing an unsightly appearance with your body worn out all over, so why stand? If youd just stay down, Id be able to deal the final blow with ease.
The Green Dragon speaks with words full of ridicule, but.
So what if Im unsightly?
Even if Im just being taken as a sore loser.
What?
The Green Dragon glared at me. I sprinkle a Rare Potion on my body as I continued to talk.
So what if Im unsightly?
So what if Im disgraceful?
In the first place, I wasnt aiming to look good.
While desperately holding up my unsteady body, even like that I return the Green Dragons glare.
Even so even so, Ill stand up until the very end; thats what a human is!
In game or in real-life, giving up before the end is no good. Only this is shared without a doubt by all. To give up is to abandon the possibility of overturning the situation that might be revealed shortly after. Not giving up and being able to make a comeback thanks to it is actually a common story in real-life.
You howl well, human! In that case, I can at least give you the qualifications to die by my Breath, as a death offering!
This, I was waiting for this. Its like that, for a tank. A suitable amount of firepower is necessary to punch through the armor from the outside. If you dont have that firepower, then you have to get an attack through on the inside somehow. From my chest pocket I take out the Enhanced Oil, activated
Hmph, so you mean to make a spectacular end of yourself; very well, taste my Breath at point blank range!
The moment the Green Dragon opened his mouth for his Breath, with a pitch at full power, I reflexively threw 4 bottles of Enhanced Oil into the Green Dragons mouth. The result was that, within the Green Dragons mouth, the energy from the Breath and the firepower from the Enhanced Oil mixed together, inducing a giant explosion.
KABOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM!!
A piercing sound erupted in my ears, and I lost my hearing for a while. I was still within range so I took some damage; my HP once again fell to about 10%. From there, by sprinkling a Rare Potion on my body, Im able to withstand it. And, more importantly, what about the Green Dragon!?
-!! - !?
My hearing is gone, so I dont know what hes saying, but he appears to be in quite the agony, clutching his mouth, flailing, and making struggling motions, so I can understand that its unpleasant. This is the only opportunity to repay him with an arrow!
I cant hear so I cant tell if I said it or not, but the moment I made my declaration and released my arrow, the effect activated and went towards the Green Dragon, so I understood that it activated. Right now the Green Dragon is just flailing because of the damage from the explosion, so its easy to hit him with an arrow.
While <7 Falling Stars> is activated, even if the arrow doesnt pierce through, as long as you hit the arrow will continue to stay there. While shooting the 3rdand 4tharrow, the Green Dragon finally managed to calm the pain in his mouth, stopping his struggles, then the 5tharrow also hit.
What are these arrows you pierced my scales!?
I think hes saying something, but I still cant hear. The 6tharrow hits; theres only 1 left. But the Green Dragon has now realized the abnormality and took a defensive posture by rising up into the sky. However, I dont have the time to hesitate! I pull back with all my strength and release the last, 7tharrow.
Gu-!?
The Green Dragons reaction is quick, but the 7tharrow just barely pierced his wing. At that instant, light stretched out from the 7 arrows piercing him, skewering the Green Dragon and sealing his movement. Naturally, the Green Dragon, who is now unable to move, crashed to the ground. From the sky, stars fell towards the Green Dragon that has crashed and is unable to move; in total, the number of stars is 7.
This technique is the fairies! Why would you, a human, have this!?
My ears, finally regaining their functional ability, picked up the Green Dragons voice. But I hurriedly took my distance, plugging my ears with my hands. The Green Dragon took on a direct hit from the stars falling towards him
A/n: With this, the Light Metal shield that has continued to work hard has completely shattered.
And, Im finally able to write one of the sayings Earth has wanted to say.
