301 – 289. With the Dragon-7
“Pfft!”
As soon as I regained consciousness, which had been lost for a moment, my head started pounding.
Just before being attacked by a monster out of nowhere, he was able to save his life by narrowly entering the shadows.
But he was unable to completely avoid it, and part of the flesh on his right forearm was torn off and blood was flowing out.
If this continues, excessive bleeding may lead to death.
I quickly took off my outer clothing and tied it around the wound to provide first aid, but this was not enough.
“It f*cking hurts… !”
I took off my underwear and tied the upper part of the wound tightly to prevent blood from flowing through.
The amount of blood flowing has slowed down a bit, but if left alone, necrosis will occur.
I had to quickly find another way.
It would be nice if the torn flesh could be put back together, but this type of monster would have already swallowed it.
There is a high risk of stopping the bleeding with fire.
The best way for me to stop the bleeding is… ….
“After all, it’s just the leaves of the World Tree.”
Because I was chasing after Breeze, I left without taking anything from the elf temple.
Even though I lost my appetite with regret, I slowly moved forward.
Fortunately, the monster that attacked me didn’t seem to be able to enter the shadows.
‘What on earth was that guy?’
A quadrupedal monster with no eyes.
The mouth was torn open up to the shoulder, the thin tongue had teeth at the end, and the endoskeleton was protruding through the skin.
It was a strange monster full of features I had never seen before.
It was a creature that could not be understood and should not be understood, a foreign being that could not exist in this world.
If there was such a being, there was only one.
‘The guy from outer space… Is it true?
In the past, we have never seen any remnants related to extraterrestrial life.
I firmly believed that there would be no interference from the outside world, but I was foolish.
There was no such thing as unconditionality in the world, and the alien threat was always nearby, looking for an opportunity, so Felix’s warning suddenly came to mind.
[Beware the hounds of foreign media.]
After thinking about it carefully using modern magazine methods, I came across an individual worthy of the name hunting dog.
The Hound of Tindalos.
It was not a ‘dog’ as I saw from its appearance, but it was a nickname given to it due to its characteristic of doggedly pursuing its prey.
It was an entity that traveled freely through time and space, mainly making space-time travelers its mainstay.
In the past, I would have ignored such a monster, but since I have seen Shogus like Lili, the Hound of Tindalos may also exist.
In reality, I was a time traveler from the past, so I was obvious prey.
“hahahaha! “I’m bored.”
He was an opponent I could never defeat without Bern’s specifications.
Another nickname for the hunting dog from outer space is the magician’s natural enemy.
Every novel that appears shows a different side, but in general, many have the characteristic that magic does not work.
And now I am more specialized in magic than in swords.
‘It’s not like you’re an opponent you can’t win even if you fall behind…….’
I somehow succeeded in reaching the temple in the shadows.
The problem is that as soon as I came out, I felt like I was going to be attacked by a hunting dog.
As I continued to pound, my right arm began to tingle.
More than anything, I have to convey my feelings to Breeze as soon as possible.
“Whoa…” ! Good!”
My current location is under the altar where the leaves of the World Tree are placed.
I stretched my left arm out of the shadows and carefully placed my hand on the leaves of the World Tree.
At that moment, goosebumps appeared all over my body and my senses were heightened.
Feeling a surge of anxiety, I quickly pulled my arm out, grabbing the leaves of the world tree.
At the same time, a monster passed by with its mouth open where my left arm had been.
If I had been a little late, my entire arm would have been torn off.
When I imagined failure, my whole body trembled and gave me goosebumps.
“Ha, hahahahaha!”
Although I was laughing helplessly, I wrapped the wide leaves of the World Tree around my arms.
It felt hot, as if alcohol had been poured into the wound, but a refreshing energy lingered on my arm.
Even if it were a leaf of the World Tree, the damaged area would not regenerate immediately.
However, the hemostasis effect seemed to have already taken place, so I paused for a while and looked out at the situation outside the shadows.
“aaah!!”
An elf nun who screams and falls asleep at the monster that suddenly appears.
The Hound of Tindalos’ face turned towards the source of the scream, her mouth stretched out.
Pure killing without any malicious intent was directed at the elf.
The hound’s primary target is space-time travelers, but it also seems to boldly hunt those who observe it.
“Crrr… !”
“Hi! “Please save me!”
A Tindalos hound pounces on an elf with her mouth wide open.
My body’s recovery was still not over, but I had no choice but to step out of the shadows.
Because I couldn’t ignore the person who got involved because of me.
“Hey, you bastard!” They will target me until the end! “Why are you targeting a human?”
Geekigeek-!
The teeth on the tongue clashed with the sword, and a struggle of power began.
But in vain, the two legs that were touching the ground began to be pushed back.
This means that the power gap is clear. I belatedly gave my body some physical strength, but it was still falling behind.
If things continued like this, it seemed like we would reach the wall.
I pulled back the arm I was pushing and simultaneously twisted my body to the side.
I safely escaped to the right using the power of the hunting dog and swung my sword at the guy’s waist.
“Ugh! “It’s so f*cking hard!”
Kyaang-!
I took a step back, feeling as if I had hit iron ore with an egg.
Meanwhile, the hunting dog that was being pushed forward kicked the ground with its hind legs and turned as if sliding.
The sight of saliva, almost like acid, seemed like it was going to attack again.
“What’s going on!”
“Seo, saintess… !”
Lavender and the guardians urgently came to the sound of the nun’s screams and battle sounds echoing in the quiet temple.
When they saw me and the Hound of Tindalos in a standoff, their mouths widened.
You cannot help but be surprised as humans are fighting a monster they have never seen before in a sacred place where the leaves of the world tree are kept.
But to the hunting dogs, their agitation did not seem to matter.
“That’s right!”
“aaah!”
Without even looking back, the hound swung its tail, which looked like a plain sword, pierced the guardian’s chest and pulled out his heart.
The hunting dog that killed the elf in the blink of an eye chewed the heart attached to its tail with the teeth on its tongue.
The sight was so bizarre that I couldn’t help but frown.
“It must not be sight since they don’t have eyes, but they must be able to determine our location through other means?”
“Kkakakaka!”
With a mocking laugh, the hunting dog swallowed the elf’s heart and lunged at me again.
I wanted to run away into the shadows, but behind me was the still trembling elf nun.
She had lost half of her senses due to the unknown monster within her.
Even if you shout to escape, your legs will be so weak that you won’t be able to run away properly.
“Be calm… !”
During the charge, the hound turned his body around and swung his sharp tail like a whip.
He lowered his body to the ground as much as possible to avoid the tail.
Eventually, the hound raised both front legs and attacked her, so I grabbed the nun’s waist and rolled her to the right.
“What is the person protecting the temple doing so absent-mindedly? “Hurry and take the nun away!”
“Ugh, wow!”
Since the nun was not even able to control herself properly, I gave orders to the guards.
I wasn’t in a position to give orders to anyone, but given the situation, there was no one I could ask for.
But the guards, overcome with fear, gave up their duties and ran away.
“I will protect you!”
“Please do me a favor!”
In a sh*tty situation, with eyebrows frowning.
The only remaining Saint Lavender took her nun and protected her.
Just as I was about to take a breather, the sticky life threatened me and did not even give me time to rest.
“Huh!”
Chaeeng-!
At the same time, the hound’s toothy tongue came right in front of his nose and struck the sword in the nick of time.
The hunting dog shot its tail like a scorpion towards me, whose posture was disturbed.
I decided that it would be difficult to avoid, so I used Blink, a short-distance spatial movement magic, and got out of the way.
“Ugh… ?!”
In an instant, half of the magic power was gone.
Blink’s mana consumption is famous for being considerable, but it was not at the level where half of it was lost.
From Noble mtl dot com
Nevertheless, the magic power within me was cut in half.
“Seo, no way…” !”
When I looked at the hunting dog with a frown, I saw that its tongue was glowing blue.
Cold-type mana that is difficult to find anywhere except in the snowy mountains. I realized that the hound had stolen my mana.
‘Is this the ability to steal some of the user’s mana when using manifestation magic?’
The wizard’s natural enemy.
As I had feared, the hunting dogs here also had abilities befitting their nickname.
If I used my abilities carelessly, it actually made him stronger, so I had to fight purely with my body and skills.
Even though they are overwhelmingly different in strength.
“It’s going to turn.”
“Quick!”
Maybe I will face death here.
I couldn’t convey my feelings to Breeze, but what can I do?
The opponent was ridiculously strong, and I was infinitely weak compared to the future Bern.
‘…… Okay, at least let’s leave proof that I was here.’
I raised my sword, determined to carve a large wound on the hound’s body.
It is a blow. I will finish by putting all my tricks and power into just one slash.
With my eyes wide open, I lunged at the Hound of Tindalos first.
It was a time when I was cutting the exoskeleton in a wide arc with my sword.
“Size?!”
Kwaang-!
A powerful explosion occurred behind the temple wall, knocking back the Hounds of Tindalos.
The hunting dog was thrown hard against the opposite wall, and my final slash cut through the air.
‘It was a sincere attack…….’
I wanted to check the condition of the hunting dog in this awkward situation, but more than that, I was more curious about the cause of the unexpected situation that had just occurred.
As I looked at the wall where the explosion occurred, I saw a woman breathing deeply behind the collapsed wall.
The horns sticking out from the pure white hair, the wings on the back, and the lizard-like tail were clearly visible.
“Breeze… ? “You came to help me!”
“No, I came here to kill you?”
“…… Huh?”
“I cooled my head and thought about it slowly, but I got angry? “I am the strongest dragon and light dragon, and I express my affection by saying that I like it, but how dare you make me cry?”
“Uh… hmm….”
“If I leave like this, this incident will remain as a stain on my life, right? So, I’ve decided! Let’s erase my stain from this world before it’s too late… !”
“… ….”
“hahahaha! Ahahahahaha!!”
Her
When I tried to confess to her, she told me that she was on the verge of death. Here was the novel.
