136 – Our orcs haven’t changed!
Hans rode a wyvern with Helya and set off on that road. To deal with the dragon nestled in the middle of the mountain range. Wouldn’t it have been better if he had brought Yuren?
I’ve thought about that. It’s already spilled water. In the first place, I didn’t really think that a dragon would be messing around here. Get rid of consequential thoughts.
Did you feel the dragon’s momentum? The Wyvern began to tremble in fear. Fortunately, he didn’t go back on his own. Arriving at the location, Hans immediately entrusted the wyvern to Helya.
“Sensei, but if that happens…”
“If there is no wyvern, it will be difficult to get out of here.”
“……I understand.”
Helia was rarely stubborn. Even though this is what the teacher himself says. It was because Helya herself had noticed her strange currents. Like the teacher avoiding me.
Is there something wrong? If so, fix it. Helia thought so. However, she couldn’t help the pain in her heart. So she followed without a word.
Because I didn’t want to be hated more here. Hans had a surprised look at Helya’s meekly withdrawing. Soon she turned her head. Although it was once an orc village.
Now there was only an unpleasant silence. It was as if they were exploring ruins. Feeling bad for no reason, Hans moved his steps to get rid of the dirty feeling.
“There he is.”
The dragon was sleeping openly in the innermost part. Hans swallowed dryly. What to do here Should I rather kill the dragon with a surprise attack right now while I’m sleeping?
No, but what if there was a really good reason? Or what if this news reached the ears of dragons? So if the dragons start to oppose the Royal Knights…… ?
It was Hans who had already started to get goosebumps just by imagining it. The leader is such a position. He must act with every thought in mind. Because there is such an impact.
“Arise, dragon.”
[…] … Who wakes me up without fear?]
“It’s in front of you, see it with your own eyes.”
[Your voice shows no fear.]
It was a dragon with black scales. When it finally opened its eyes, its eyes were an ice-cold blue. The dragon rolled his eyes and saw him below him.
[You are not afraid. Or did you lose your fear in the face of overwhelming fear?]
The dragon openly laughed at Hans. From that point of view, Hans could only be seen as a powerless, weak human being. He wouldn’t think so if he knew Hans of the Royal Knights.
Unfortunately, however, this dragon did not know that the man in front of him was Hans. And that means bluffing doesn’t work on dragons. That is, it can be regarded as cooked.
Hans shook his head as best he could. He didn’t really want to fight the dragon in a place like this. Regardless of whether or not you can fight right away and win. Because he didn’t want to lose valuable power.
“I want to ask you the reason first. Why did you kill the Rusty King?”
[A rusty overlord? Oh, you mean that orc.]
From noble mtl dot com
“Yes.”
[Because you ignored my warnings. I was going to make my own home here. So I told him to leave, and he jumped at me without hesitation.]
“…….”
Hmm, what is it? Who is this idiot?
That was Hans’ honest feeling. That’s right, they suddenly came to the place where they live. I’ll make this my home, so if I tell you to get out of here, I’ll take up arms right away.
Because they are called the Race of Benevolence. Not all dragons necessarily love all life. There were also dragons that only favored certain races. There are people who just hate all races.
Nevertheless, the reason why they are called the Race of Benevolence. Most dragons love other races. It was about trying to balance. In other words, this idiot is a heretic.
“This is the territory of the Orcs. Give it back to them.”
[That’s interesting. What are you doing with no power?]
“You never know until you try.”
[Puha! Yeah, I’ll do it if I can…….]
At that moment, Hans’ index and middle fingers collided. The moment the dragon expresses a question about its unusual behavior. All colors disappear, and all that is left is things that have stopped in place.
“I did my best not to kill.”
Still, they are of the same species as Yuren. I thought of them as colleagues who dealt with demons together. He didn’t want to lose the dragon’s mighty power. But if it came out like this, even Hans couldn’t help it.
Hans sighed and drew his sword.

Black Dragon Zaerkan.
He was a dragon who was proud of his own strength. Among dragons, they are divided into radicals and moderates. Radicals insisted that dragons rule and manage the continent.
On the contrary, the moderates insisted on the harmony and coexistence of the continent. It’s a real pity, now the dragon is moderately strong. No matter how many hardline dragons there were, there were not even ten of them.
Zaerkan didn’t like that. Why do we have to suffer for such bugs? It’s enough just to wipe them all out and rule them comfortably.
In fact, there was a time when Er Khan put his thoughts into action. Hundreds of years ago he himself unleashed his power and brought his nation under him. At least until the dragons stop him.
No matter how much Jaerkan was, he couldn’t help it when dozens of dragons attacked at once. In the first place, Zaerkan himself was not that strong among dragons.
‘Are the bugs ignoring me now?’
Of course, Zaerkan was not very good at planting. Who am I? It’s a dragon It is me who is not lacking at all to be called the strongest race on earth. But don’t find out
[This is our territory. I can’t hand it over to you.]
[On the subject of a mere orc. Your mouth is quite long.]
[Orcs always risk their lives to fight.]
It was an orc that was unexpectedly annoying. Zaerkan killed the orc without difficulty. And I tried to kill all the other orcs too. I couldn’t possibly do that. He is sure to be stopped.
Don’t make the same mistake. Even for the sake of trading with the guys. First of all, take a seat here and slowly expand your power. This is so that true dragons get proper treatment.
So Zaerkhan was especially merciful and drove out all the orcs. The orcs tried to attack again without knowing the subject, but one orc who knew a little bit of the subject stepped forward.
[I can’t die like a dog here.]
‘But now it’s a trivial chore…….’
Although Zaerkan hates all races equally. The most hated race among them were humans. Dwarves had at least some skills, and Beasts and Orcs had strength.
Because humans really have nothing. If he doesn’t form a group in the first place, he’s nothing but a human being. Lately, the guy called the leader of the Royal Knights has been making noise. Anyway, human.
If he steps forward, he will be able to subdue him without difficulty. He thought so Zaerkan looked at the human while yawning. Let’s see what people who don’t even know the subject are doing.
[Puha! Yeah, I’ll do it if I can…….]
However, he was unable to speak. In fact, no voice came out. Zaerkan felt suspicious. What? Why did the voice suddenly cut off? At the same time, his gaze wavered.
It felt as if the world was spinning. Zaerkan could not understand the situation. What did that human do? I don’t know what kind of trick it is. He had no intention of getting hurt.
Zaerkan raised the gigantic body himself. His claws, which he swung, tore the man’s body apart. Looking at the blood and guts on his hands, Zaer Khan smiled with satisfaction.
At least in his head.
[This, what is this…… !!!]
My body didn’t move as I thought.
So Zaerkan shifted his gaze. Because he thought he had barely calmed down. But at the same time, Zaerkan could see. Covered in black scales, it was the body he was proud of.
Why is my body over there?
Soon Jaerkan knew why. Because the body had no head. Only then did Jaerkan understand his situation. In an instant, his throat was cut.
[That can’t be! I, to a mere human!!!]
“Arrogance and carelessness. You pay the price.”
[Yes, you bastard! Who do you mean you are?
“Hans, leader of the Royal Knights.”
At his cold voice, Zaerkhan made an expression as if he had been struck by lightning. That man is Hans, the danger they said…… !!! Zaerkhan roared in anger.
[Do you think I will die like this?!]
However, contrary to what he said. Zaerkhan’s voice was fading.
