Chapter 331


(331) Battle with the Demonic King Dragon


Translator: Tseirp


Centaur was biting onto Sheena No . 3’s arm (and the water plant on her arm) while Jofre and Elize were desperately clinging onto Centaur .


““We thought we were going to dieeeee!””


Jofre and Elize went through a terrifying experience but they still could say that with a smile for some reason .


“While we were in the room with lizard bones, a large lizard suddenly attacked . ”


“We escaped into the water and were saved when Centaur was pulled up . ”


So it was not the shadow of the Demonic King Dragon that I saw underwater but Centaur getting pulled up while dragging Jofre and Elize?


Hn? Large lizard?


By any chance do they ─ ─


Just as I had that thought ─ ─ another presence approached the surface of the lake and flew out .


A purple-colored dragon even larger than the Ancient Dragon ─ ─ so that is the Demonic King Dragon?


The Demonic King Dragon was clearly aiming for Jofre and Elize .


Should I attack with magic?


I would probably not hit the Demonic King Dragon that moves at high speed .


Nevertheless ─ ─


“Ice!”


I cast Ice Magic .


The Demonic King Dragon easily avoided the attack after all .


However, it now considered me as an enemy .




I considered if I should confront it with Boost Magic ─ ─


“Double Slash!”


Two arcs of sword waves shot out from Talwi’s sword .


In addition ─ ─


“Slash!”


Another two sword waves from Haru’s Guardian Sword and Gale Blade flew at the Demonic King Dragon .


She probably didn’t use the Flame Dragon Fang because the Demonic King Dragon possesses resistance toward fire .


A total of four sword waves ─ ─ it won’t be able to avoid that .


I was certain but the Demonic King Dragon twist its body around and skilfully avoided the sword waves .


That was close ─ ─ it would have avoided my magic as well if I had used it .


The Demonic King Dragon opened its mouth wide as I had that thought .


From within its maw, I could see ─ ─ flames!?


“Mega Water!”


I instantaneously released an advanced Water Magic to offset the flames the Demonic King Dragon was about to spew out .


Steam covered the area and the Demonic King Dragon flew through the steam, aiming to slam into me with its body .


If it’s at this range!


“Diamond Dust . ”


I released Ice Magic at maximum power to seal its movements in ice .


But the dragon avoided it with the spell only grazing one of its legs slightly .


It was definitely fast .


“Kusunoki-kun, hop onto Pochi and run . ”


Suzuki noticed that I had become the target .


It was true that if we continued fighting there, Jofre and the others would be dragged into the battle .


“All right! Sorry but lend Pochi to me! I leave these guys to you!”


I cut the rope connected to Pochi’s tail with a hand blade . Sheena and the others fell into the water . Pochi was flying at low altitude so they probably won’t get injured .


Then, I jumped onto Pochi .


I wasn’t the only one ─ ─


“Haru and Talwi?”


The three of us rode on Pochi .


“Pochi, fly toward the mountain peak!”


I shouted and Pochi replied with a cry and headed up the mountain .


The Demonic King Dragon was slightly faster .


It would catch up to us at that rate .


But I won’t lose out at harassing the foe .


I swapped my jobs to those that raise physical attack,


“Sky Breaking Strike!”


I released a sword wave that was highly effective against flying monsters .


It naturally did not hit the swift Demonic King Dragon but it had to rise upward to avoid the attack so its speed dropped .


Perhaps because it was within range, the Demonic King Dragon opened its mouth wide . It probably wanted to shoot out flames again .


But I was waiting for that .


“Oil Create!”


I used Magic to create oil . The oil I created poured directly into the mouth of the Demonic King Dragon ─ ─ and ignited .


The Demonic King Dragon’s face was wrapped in flames .


“What an interesting fighting style . ”


Talwi commented .


“Thanks . The only thing I have going for me is versatility . ”


“But flame attacks are not that effective against the Demonic King Dragon . Then it is our turn next! Let’s go, Haru . ”


“Yes!”


Immediately after saying that, Haru and Talwi leaped from Pochi and landed onto the Demonic King Dragon who was still burning .


“Here!”


“This is the spot . ”


They each cut into the wings of the Demonic King Dragon .


Amazing ─ ─ they precisely aimed for the thin part of the wing .


With both wings injured, the Demonic King Dragon lost balance and shook, causing Haru and Talwi to fall off .


Since they set it up so well, it was my turn .


I made Pochi fly up and stay in front of the Demonic King Dragon .


The Demonic King Dragon glared at me and roared .


I changed my jobs to those that prioritized magic attack .


“Boost Diamond Dust and Celestial Ray . ”


A combination spell of Ice and Light Magic .


The entire body of the Demonic King Dragon was frozen and condensed light rays reflected haphazardly within the ice .


If that doesn’t defeat it, we won’t stand a chance .


I channeled that amount of spirit into that spell .


【Ichinojo leveled up】


【Fire Magician skill: 「Fire Resistance (weak)」has skilled up to「Fire Resistance (small)」】


【Water Magician skill: 「Water Resistance (weak)」has skilled up to「Water Resistance (small)」】


【Wind Magician skill: 「Wind Resistance (weak)」has skilled up to「Wind Resistance (small)」】


【Earth Magician skill: 「Earth Resistance (weak)」has skilled up to「Earth Resistance (small)」】


Fire Magician, Water Magician, Wind Magician, and Earth Magician all leveled up from Lv60 to Lv73 .


These jobs had once all reached the limit and could not level up any further but I took the Limit Breaking medicine Miri made and raised the upper limit of the levels .


Its body was practically unharmed but the Demonic King Dragon had certainly stopped breathing .


That said, by using magical power boost and combination magic of greatest class magic ─ ─ I almost had no more MP remaining .


After drinking the mana potion that I received from Carol, I somewhat regained the strength to stand up and walk .


Haru and Talwi who fell off seemed to be fine so I went over to them .


“That was amazing . Ichinojo, you are truly an excellent magician . ”


“As expected of Master . I believed Master would definitely succeed . ”


“No, it’s because the two of you cut its wings . It would have been dangerous if it could fly properly . ”


Nevertheless, we won .


Retrieving the Dragon Core seemed to be troublesome .


Just as I was thinking that .


A flash of light came from the lake .


I looked at the base of the mountain .


And then ─ ─ it appeared ─ ─


“No way … you’ve got to be kidding . ”


Another Demonic King Dragon appeared .
