53 – Dragon Slayer
Because it’s so beautiful.
Maya felt her tension relax.
If you have such a trustworthy person by your side, wouldn’t you have to be afraid?
Maya sat down. Her legs became weak.
The boy looks ahead again.
She raised her sword and rushed at the dragon.
It was Maya’s first time seeing it.
He who defeats the judges.
-Do not interfere…… Mara! Accomplice…… Nothing like that!!
Noorna shouts.
The boy hit Noorna in the neck. Nurna frowned and resisted by somehow imbuing the scales with magic.
Fit… Just do it yourself!!
But it was no use. The boy’s sword is gradually being pushed into Nurna’s throat.
Noorna focuses all her attention on defensive magic.
A small human overcomes a huge dragon.
That image was strongly embedded in Maya’s head.
It gives me goosebumps.
Her master is indeed strong… It was beautiful.
-…… Sir.
Maya’s body became hot.
My breath gradually became easier, and a desire that was difficult for a child to understand swept through my body.
Envy, or longing.
And something squishy.
Maya helplessly surrendered her body to her emotions and simply took in the sight of her teacher.
-Ahh…… Ahhh!!
The Judge is tied to Master’s sword and cannot escape.
The tattered neck of the judge.
Nour, filled with the energy of her death, could not believe her current reality.
After hundreds of years, she barely established herself as a judge.
Now that she’s not even 20 years old, she feels like the human being is overwhelming her.
Most of her magic power has already been eliminated.
Is it really the end?
Howling!
A fist of fire came into the empty space of the inn.
-Press it!
Chanting fire magic with all her might, Isin came to save Nurna.
At the same time, Evan slashed at her sword with all his might.
Just do it yourself…… Pop!
Her dragon’s hard scales cracked and Nur Na’s head fell off.
Boom!
The dragon’s face with its eyes wide open as if it couldn’t believe it.
It was the end of Judge Nurna.
After defeating Nurna, Evan took a deep breath from her. Perhaps because she used big techniques twice, her body is in tatters. A slight tremor began to take over my body. She tried to suppress it with her magic, but her blood vessels burst and she kept getting out of control.
‘I have to finish it quickly. ‘Because this damned body doesn’t listen.’
We have grown, but it is still not enough.
Evan forcibly grabbed his sagging body and turned to Lee Shin.
– Press it!!!!
Isin screamed.
I was so filled with sadness and anger over Noorna’s death that I couldn’t control my emotions.
-You harm the judge!! Your sins are deep and great!!!
Ishin whose entire body is covered in fire.
The dragon’s massive body radiated hot firepower as if it was going to burn everything.
Evan stumbled and prepared his final move.
Battles with dragons are not very efficient.
In order to cut through the hard scales, you have to strain your body more than necessary.
-Kaaa!!
Isin rushed forward.
A huge fireball is approaching.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!
There was a loud explosion, and the walls and trees of the inn broke and burned.
Flashing white flashes.
Evan’s extremely compressed blow penetrated Isin’s flame and lodged between his eyes.
Flames disappearing around Evan’s sword.
Isin, who was approaching fiercely, stops.
Puck!
At the same time, Evan was thrown backwards.
The shock of colliding with Lee Shin was quite significant.
-…… Boss!!
Maya’s Scream.
Evan was blown away by the impact and fell to the stairs.
A place right above Maya.
Evan’s consciousness flickers. Evan’s strong mind was still trying to hold on to consciousness, but his body was trying to force his eyes to close.
Hot blood flows down from the forehead.
-Sabu!!
In Evan’s field of vision, he saw Maya crying.
Maya collapses in Evan’s arms and quickly casts healing magic.
Maya carefully placed her hand on Evan’s chest, as if his body had stiffened, and injected her healing magic.
Maya saw her teacher’s dangerous appearance and thought that her teacher’s life was in danger.
I can’t let Master die like this.
Give her a name, and make a grave for her sister.
Now I am grateful to the person who got rid of my enemy.
You can’t lose.
That thought dominated Maya’s head.
-Like this…… It can’t end.
Isin’s voice interrupted Maya’s thoughts.
Isin’s massive body is staggering around with a sword stuck between his eyes and his eyes turned.
The flame that enveloped my body disappeared.
Isin’s brain is not functioning properly.
Isin’s only thought was to somehow take the surviving prisoner.
Isin approached as if he was going to suffocate and crush him with his own body.
Maya turned around.
The enemy of herself and her sister.
Her older sister was mortally wounded by Isin and fled to the empire with Maya.
Even though I was suffering from her wounds, I couldn’t stop.
Isin has been chasing the two for a long time.
Every time he sees Maya and her sister in the empire, he fires attack magic at them.
Her older sister, whose injuries accumulated, eventually died.
He died at the hands of Lee Shin.
‘Sister.’
I’m still afraid of Lee Shin.
Even though it looks as if it is about to die, the imposing figure of the dragon is not going anywhere.
But I don’t want to lose Master.
I don’t want to lose any more precious dragons or people.
It was too big for mere fear to stop.
-Sabu.
Maya lifted the sword.
Maya’s inner talent shines through.
‘I do what I was taught.’
Maya remembered. What Master taught me. Straighten her posture and raise her sword straight.
Basic posture of swordsmanship.
Maya strangely did not feel heavy.
For some reason, my body feels lighter.
I feel like my body is gaining strength.
Does the thread of the covenant connected to Master give you strength?
-At best… In human form…… Are you attacking me?
Isin sneered in a cracked voice.
Isin’s eyes were out of focus, but a faint consciousness remained.
Boom! Thud!
Isin is approaching little by little.
Maya took a deep breath and raised her sword.
Just as Master taught.
It is not so light that Ishin dares to ignore it.
-Yay!
Maya kicked her feet.
Isin’s body floats, and Lee Shin’s scared face grows larger in his field of vision.
Maya bravely threw down her sword.
Aiming for the place where the sword is inserted.
Maya stabbed her own sword next to the sword that Master plunged between the eyes of Ishin.
Park!
-Qu…… AA AA AA…… !
A Mayan sword that penetrates deeply.
Isin’s face tilted back and trembled.
-……….
The wildness of the silent judge.
Maya placed the sword between Ishin’s eyes and continued to apply force.
Until the judge dies.
The dragon, completely exhausted, trembled and lay down on the floor.
Boom!
It was the moment when the judges fell to the humans and the baby dragons.
※
Time has passed.
When I opened my eyes, I was in a pure white hospital room.
When I lost consciousness, I was on the first floor of an inn…….
How long has it been since I fell this deep?
Looking at the condition of my stomach, I think I slept for a full day or two.
“Hmm.”
My throat is dry and sore.
Did they only use healing magic on the body? It was easier to move than I thought. I got up and looked around.
Maya was lying down on my legs and was surprised to find me.
-Sabu!?
Maya got up and called me.
“Yes.”
-Sweetheart! Is your body okay!?
“You’re fine, don’t worry.”
-Thank goodness… ….
Maya’s eyes are fluttering, are you worried?
There are pressure marks on Maya’s cheek, as if she had been lying down for a long time. Looking elsewhere on the body, there were no injuries.
Looking at Maya’s condition, it’s okay.
I even saw Maya slay a fire dragon before she lost consciousness.
When Maya encountered the Judge, her body froze, something she eventually overcame.
This is a good result.
“So, the judge is not as good as you think, right?”
When I spoke lightly, Maya made an awkward expression.
-Ah… That thing, uh…… I don’t know!
Maya smiled awkwardly, her eyes widening like a crescent moon.
Is it because Maya hasn’t caught the judge on her own yet?
It is not that far in the future for Maya to catch the Judge.
If you look at how well he performed the basic swordsmanship I taught him in actual combat.

I raised my head.
There were other people in the hospital room.
A person looking at me with a depressed expression.
He is wearing a white uniform.
The person wearing her hairpin behind her head and holding her back was the Sword Saint Mayer.
“I was wondering how you knew so much about the world of images, and there was a reason. “Evan.”
“Did the professor take me to the hospital?”
“Yes. If a strong dragon appears in Allulim, I have to step in. “I hate to say this myself, but I am a dragon specialist.”
I owe you something.
I was definitely in quite danger when I lost consciousness.
The judges’ scales were harder than I thought, so I used a lot of magical power.
“Evan.”
Mayer took a deep breath and bowed her back.
A form of giving thanks.
“First of all, I would like to express my gratitude. The dragon was killed before I stepped forward, and the damage to the civilian population was minimal. “I am speaking as one of the four guardian saints of the homeland and as the elder Mayer of Valois.”
“It’s okay. “I just did it because it was necessary.”
“You are humble.”
Mayer straightened his back and spoke with admiration.
“That’s really amazing, Evan. It’s really rare even at the Academy to have a referee. How did he achieve such accomplishments at that age? … “I’m curious about the time of the incident, and I have a lot to ask.”
I thought the investigation would be done.
The empire is sensitive to terrorism.
Mayer shook his head and said.
“Anyway, congratulations. I am the first first-year student to receive the title of Dragon Slayer. “I’ll probably win a big prize.”
“Yes.”
They say they are congratulating themselves, but they are not very impressed.
In my past life, I earned all sorts of strange titles, such as witch slayer and mountain ranger.
Rather than that, my interest lies elsewhere.
“Please discharge me from the hospital today.”
“Yes?”
Mayer asks a question.
I kept talking.
“I have to go to the gravity room again today.”
