The Sub-Protagonist Is Retiring chapter 190

190 – 183.You from outer space-4

“It’s strange.”

The stairs to the 4th floor found after eliminating all the fishmen on the 5th floor.

However, I was a bit perplexed that the person who should be at this point didn’t even show his nose.

[Why is that?]

‘The 2nd floor was cleared before we fell, then we went to the 7th floor and flowed back again to reach the 4th floor. Then shouldn’t the blue dragon clear the 3rd floor before reaching the 4th floor?’

[Hmm, that’s definitely suspicious.]

It took time, but I cleared the 5th floor on my own.

I didn’t think that a blue dragon stronger than me would stay on the 3rd floor, which would be easier than the 5th floor.

I thought I would have easily finished the 4th floor and came down, but as if I was mistaken, Fukeados was nowhere to be found.

Did you just leave me alone and run away?

After stepping on the trap, I felt frustrated because I didn’t know how the situation on the upper floors was going.

“Should I go find it myself… ….”

“Are you looking for someone else?”

“Come to think of it, I didn’t tell you. Actually, I had a companion. But when I stepped on a trap, I fell.”

“Was your companion the reason you said you wouldn’t transfer to the entrance?”

“Right. If I go alone, the dungeon will collapse and my companion will be trapped, right? So, after joining early, I was going to go out together, but I guess it’s still a long way to come.”

“It’s a presumptuous remark, but compared to the master, the companion seems quite incompetent.”

“hahahaha… ….”

It was a blue dragon superior to me in many ways.

If you tell a dragon that you are incompetent, it won’t be strange if you say it’s disrespectful and get summarily executed.

However, now that he is dissatisfied with the fact that his progress is quite slow, he does not deny Lili’s words.

“Oh no! Lili, are you the boss of this dungeon? Usually bosses can find out the whereabouts of intruders, but is there such a function?”

“I am sorry, but I am confined to this dungeon. Also, since it was not a dungeon I made, the features you mentioned were not given.”

“I see.”

“I’m sorry I couldn’t help you.”

“No. On the contrary, I’m sorry, because I brought up your gloomy past.”

“It’s okay. You don’t have to worry about it. To me, the present with my master is more important.”

“Yes, yes.”

Anyway, the plan to join at the beginning of the 5th floor and get out of the dungeon went wrong.

I had no choice but to look for Fukeados myself, so I took the stairs to the 4th floor.

The first thing that caught my eye as soon as I went up to the 4th floor was the gate.

I was afraid to ask for the holy sword again, but this time there was no keyhole.

It was nothing more than a double-closing gate pushed forward by force.

‘It’s a bit strange. Speaking of doors inside dungeons, aren’t they usually placed near the entrance?’

[Tsk tsk! You know one and don’t know the other, Contractor.]

‘Is there anything wrong with what I said?’

[It wasn’t wrong. But I can’t even see it right.]

‘What do you mean by that?’

[Although it is rare, there are often dungeons that are placed at the end of the floor like now. And when such dungeons adopt this structure, there is only one thing in common.]

‘Don’t hesitate and tell me quickly.’

[When a strong sentinel is placed.]

“Ah… !”

Some dungeons have created certain difficulties by placing a sentinel entity called a mid-boss.

However, if the adventurers ignore the watchman and walk past them, they will talk.

Therefore, the dungeons placed doors behind the guard’s section to prevent tricks of ignoring and running away.

‘There’s a watchman blocking the way beyond this door?’

[That’s it! Wouldn’t this also explain why the blue dragon is slowing down?]

‘It makes sense. Even so, I don’t think the blue dragon will struggle.’

[Don’t rush to conclusions. Because there is such a thing as compatibility in the world.]

I nodded at the reasonable words and approached the door.

It was soundproofed, but I could feel a huge vibration coming from the other side of the door.

I could see that someone was fighting.

It must be a fight between the blue dragon and the watchman.

“Let’s see, shall we see how it goes?”

I quietly opened the door.

I peeked through the slightly gaping gap.

There are scratch marks everywhere, the walls are crumbling, the ceiling is partially collapsed, and there is no sound part.

At the center of the chaos-free space was a blue-scaled dragon, and his opponent…….

“What is that?!”

It was a blue dragon that could be called a replica.

The sight of two dragons entwined, clinging to each other and biting and fighting unfolded.

I know it’s the true form of Fukeados, but I don’t know who is real.

It is not a dragon and tiger statue, but a dragon dragon statue.

If the opponent was a tiger, he would have come forward and helped, but since they had the same appearance, he couldn’t rush forward.

“Looks like a shapeshifter of a faceless god.”

“A faceless god?”

“It is also called the god with a thousand faces. Transformants raised by such foreign media are beings that imitate all the targets they encounter, perfectly copying their powers, abilities, and even appearance.”

It was similar to a monster called a doppelganger.

However, I know that a doppelganger cannot imitate a dragon, the strongest species.

At best, it’s about the appearance. It has no dragon heart, and cannot fire its breath.

There was a clear limit, but the transformant beyond the door was fighting an equal fight with the blue dragon.

“Wow, it’s not like we fire each other’s breaths.”

Ugh! Kwakwang-!

Two dragons tangled together and shooting their breath at their heads.

A collision between breaths occurred, and shockwaves exploded and spread in all directions.

I hurriedly ran away from the door and barely escaped out of the range of impact.

I avoided injury by narrowly avoiding it, but my heart was in a shrunken state.

Because I personally experienced the breath power of Hukeados.

“Can’t I do something for you?”

“But if the master doesn’t act, the companion will probably die.”

“I thought they were at the same level as each other?”

“The Faceless Transformer imitates every aspect of the opponent, but there is only one part that it does not copy.”

“What is that?”

“The Faceless Transformation Beast is ignorant of fatigue and inexhaustible. They have superior endurance than their opponents, so they don’t copy that part. In other words, in a one-on-one fight, no one other than foreign media can defeat the Transformer.”

With Lily’s explanation, I immediately understood why Fukeados couldn’t get out of the 4th floor.

It’s not an exaggeration to say that the strongest person-to-person battle was as a watchman.

If the two of us had been attacking from the start, I would have been able to defeat him, but alone, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t win.

The world is wide and there was a strong man who made even dragons struggle.

“Wouldn’t it be possible to find out who the real one is by talking to them?”

“It is useless. The transformation beast will give you the same answer as the main body even if you talk to it because it replicates the memory of the clever being. I am sure that there will be no error in the interval between answers.”

“You crazy bastard.”

“There is no other way to tell them apart unless you meet them first.”

“Then there must be only one way left.”

I took out the Prach with a grim determination.

I have no intention of relying on a 50% chance.

Because if you hit the main body clumsily, it will be the most stupid thing ever.

In a situation where you can’t choose either side, you can defeat both at the same time.

“Adult artisans! Be prepared!”

“”Uh… ?””

Kwaang-!

As I kicked out the door, I ran towards the entangled blue dragons.

The dragons, quite embarrassed to see me, hurriedly raised their voices.

“”Why are you here? No! First, take down this fake guy!”

“You don’t know who is real!”

“”Look carefully! Can’t you tell at a glance that this guy is fake!”

As Lili said, the blue dragons were chattering at the same time without a detailed time interval.

Thanks to that, the volume of the shouting sound doubled and my ears buzzed.

Unfortunately, the person himself knows that he is real, but I, a third party, have no idea.

From noble mtl dot com

That’s why I didn’t slow down and collected the black sword energy inside the prach.

“You better bite this tight! It will hurt quite a bit!”

“”What, what?! Hang on!””

“If you don’t want to die, stay calm and wait!”

I was in a state where I lost my intention to kill with my sword skills, and I was planning to cut it large, avoiding vital points as much as possible.

A special move prepared to incapacitate both blue dragons at once.

Originally, it was planned to be used in an all-out war against Ignit, but a situation was created where it could be used against other dragons.

As this is an opportunity not to be missed, I will check it out with Fukeados’s body.

“”Stop! There must be a better way!”

“Sorry, but this is the only way. The best way to cover up your father-in-law is the so-called respect for your father-in-law!”

“”You mad man! It’s not an insult, it’s an attack!”

With or without it, I sent out the black sword energy that I had raised to the maximum.

It was a skill that made both arms weak, but thanks to Shogus’s cells acting as a support, it was perfectly expressed.

A sword that spreads straight through the water even underwater.

The shape changed like an oriental dragon and rushed at the dragon.

Will my blow with all my might work against the dragon?

I waited for the results in anticipation, but the blue dragons separated at the same time and only part of them barely passed.

It was a little disappointing, but I was satisfied with the result of tearing off all the dragon’s scales and cutting out some of the flesh.

If it hits you directly, it’s a blow so powerful that even Ignit won’t be safe.

“You idiot with no morals! Do you intend to send your father-in-law to the coffin!”

“But are you alive and well?”

“If I hadn’t avoided it, I would have been on the Nether Road!”

“Ah! It wasn’t quite like that. And thanks to me, the fake guy seems to have given up imitating too?”

Another blue dragon that stood at a distance unlike Fukeados who was angry.

The ardent brawling disappeared all over the place, and he didn’t say anything.

And after a while, the fake blue dragon’s body began to melt away.

The shapeshifter’s body was transformed into a human significantly smaller than a dragon, Bern.

It seems that he decided that transforming into me with the previous blow would be even stronger.

I felt strangely proud, as if I had been recognized by an alien being.

“So you’re going to fight in my own form this time?”

“This time, I will fight in my own image… Heo heo!”

A transformation beast who suddenly vomits blood even after copying my words.

The moment you want to know what to do.

“Aagh! What the hell! This body?!”

His body gradually swelled up, to the point of bursting.

The body of the faceless transformant was scattered as fragments.

As I watched the scene, I was in a mixed mood.

The second round was filled with tension and anticipation.

I took care of the enemy before I even started in earnest, but I wasn’t happy.

There was an accident where the body of the transformant exploded.

Dragon can imitate it, but it must mean that he couldn’t imitate my body.

Moreover, as if overloaded, the body could not stand it and died.

f*ck.

“…… I’ve become a terrible hybrid.”
