Matan’s Shooter

Matan’s Shooter 749

“I am the Bronze of the metal dragon Clan, Blaugrunn! What is your name, white?”

Blaugrunn shouted as he fired a lightning spell towards the two bone dragons.

Dodging the breath of the dragon Rich16 of the Gold Dragon, white Draagon replied, “Are you siding with them too, Metal?”

Blaugrunn wanted to hold his head in frustration but couldn’t because of the two bone dragons attacking furiously.

“The rumor that White is stupid seems to be correct.”

“What!?”

“Is your brain completely gone? Even after seeing me now – are you asking such questions? 『『Electric Chain』』, 『『Chain Lightning』』!”

Zap!

Lightning chains and chain lightning shot out towards the two bone dragons attempting a combo attack.

“Ahh!”

“Whoa, whoa-!”

The lightning chains that bind and immobilize the targets hit both bone dragons!

Then, the subsequent Chain Lightning continued to deal damage, alternately targeting the two bone dragons that couldn’t move in the air.

“Um, I am a White Draagon of the Chromatic Dragon Clan, blancophul! I will lend you even a bit of my strength!”

The White Draagon, blancophul, shouted with a furrowed brow.

Blaugrunn looked at him momentarily with a perplexed expression.

The animosity between the Chromatic Dragons and the Metal Dragons was a natural setting, but it didn’t feel good to hear such a response from someone who was supposed to help.

“Bronze Dragon… Blaugrunn…”

After passing the two bone dragons suffering from lightning magic, Blaugrunn turned towards Blancophul. The White Draagon wasn’t his target. It was someone who reacted to his name, the being chasing after White Draagon.

“I… Goldstaff! I will bring peace to you!”

The target was the Gold Dragon who had turned into a lich.

Although Blaugrunn, a Juvenile-class, who looked young and smaller compared to Goldstaff, an Adult-class, the comparison was only based on the present! Considering the age factor as well, Blaugrunn was by no means inferior to the upper ranks of the Adult-class.

“My mind is clear, my body is refreshed… I am already at peace, Blaugrunn.”

“Are you willing to sacrifice the pride of our clan to the undead?”

Goldstaff, who was chasing Blancophul, turned towards Blaugrunn without hesitation.

Blaugrunn was momentarily taken aback by the confrontation with Goldstaff. This was because an immense amount of mana was gathering within the body of the Gold Dragon at an astonishing speed.”

『Lich Dragon Thunder Spear…』”

“Argh, ignition Burst! Damn it! Has your concentration improved?”

Blaugrunn hastily soaked his wings and rose into the sky. Although he used instant magic to disrupt the casting, Goldstaff endured the pain and cast the spell.

Moreover, the magic Goldstaff used was Ignition Burst!

It was a fairly powerful superior-level fire magic that Bailephus once used towards Kuzgunak’sh’sh’sh’sh’sh’sh’sh’sh’sh’sh’sh’sh’sh’sh’sh’sh’sh’sh’sh.

『Using such magic near my lair! Metal really has no manners! Ice Fog, ice Blast!』

As Ignition Burst continued to crush Thunder Spear, the White Draagon completed his magic hastily.

However, there was a significant difference in the gathered mana.

Kugugu…!

Despite using three different spells, ignition Burst completely incinerated the area within a 4-kilometer radius.

“Leeha!?”

Despite Blaugrunn’s worried shout, there was no response.

“Blancophul! Let’s lure them a bit outward for now! We’ll gain the upper hand if we delay them!”

“To whom are you giving orders, Metal! And why should I believe that delaying will benefit us…?”

“If I say to do it, then shut up and follow! Thunder Spear, thunder Spear!”

Blaugrunn launched Thunder Spears towards the charging Bone Dragons.

If Goldstaff were not there right behind him, handling the two Bone Dragons would have been easy, which was regrettable. However, at the moment, there was no room for such thoughts.

Blaugrunn increased his speed even more.

Blancophul, too, followed closely behind the Bone Dragons, swiftly beginning evasive maneuvers.

Even with two dragons, it was difficult to endure… of course, that was due to Blaugrunn not yet reaching adult level, the difference in opponents’ ranks, and Goldstaff who had become a Lich Dragon and significantly boosted his abilities.

Blaugrunn: It is estimated that the Necromancer’s abilities are considerable, Leeha! First, we will lure them out to prevent the damage from spreading. But it might be difficult to endure for more than 20 minutes.

Blaugrunn whispered to Leeha and flew towards an uninhabited land, indifferent even if a wide-scale magic was cast. However, despite the sound of dragons flapping their wings, Goldstaff and Blancophul casting spells, there was no sign of a response from Leeha.

Blaugrunn: Leeha?

Blaugrunn turned his head, but there was no sign of Leeha who had disappeared into the nearby forest. It had been about ten minutes since Leeha was thrown away.

The biggest reason Leeha couldn’t respond to Blaughloon’s words was simply because she had no spare time.

“Hehehe… That boasting rifle of yours—”

Twang…!

“—There’s no other way.”

Faust smiled, baring his fangs.

At first, Leeha thought it would be a fierce battle when facing Faust. She also thought she could easily defeat Faust.

“Summoning undead was expected.”

Leeha was confident dealing with bone and lich dragons if he cut off the source! Koma was still fighting the undead horde.

However, the undead Faust conjured this time were on a different level compared to the shoddy undead creatures of the past.

*Kraaah—*!

Koma’s claws deflected an incoming sword, but another sword stabbed from the side, making it inevitable for him to flinch.

“Aaargh!”

Even when he managed to pull away, there were more undead in that position, and not just a few but a significant number, far surpassing what had been summoned in the past.

The difference was that while in the past, it was just skeletons and zombies, now it included ghouls, draugrs, and even a Death Knight.

“And what’s that, a Death Knight with full armor?”

A perfect knight’s body clad in armor, but the only light shining from beneath the eyeless skull was a blue goblin fire.

The undead knights, Death Knight, and the headless warriors they led closed in, with Koma struggling to even use her strength properly.

“Was 『Dark Promotion』 that powerful? Moreover, Faust… Faust, 『Curve Shot』!”

As soon as Leeha detected the angle towards Faust, he endured the mana cost and used the skill again.

It was a whip-like bullet that curved from the upper left to the lower right, but Faust jumped back to evade it as if he had been waiting for that shot from the start.

“Darn! How can a necromancer—”

There was no skill to predict attacks, nor was there any knowledge to dodge them after seeing the attack. But how was this possible? Including the bullets Leeha had used upon meeting Faust and the current Curve Shot, he had already spent 2,400 mana.

It was no wonder he was getting more anxious, with Faust still not revealing his body movements and secrets.

“If I concentrate the soft points on mind, it’ll increase to 110… But if I can’t figure out Faust’s body movements and secrets, it’s useless.”

How can a necromancer exhibit faster agility than a physical dealer?

It was reasonable to predict Igor becoming faster as a vampire, but Faust too?

“An increase in magical abilities, an increase in physical abilities… Okay, let’s say that’s possible. But… Isn’t this going overboard?!”

Beep beep~

Beep beep beep~

The alarm ringing in his head was bothering him greatly.

“I only wanted to get the White Draagon… but now I ended up with a fine specimen I never even wanted. It would be a waste to turn it into a zombie or a skeleton… Maybe I should just let it live? Hehehe.”

Faust chuckled as he ran his finger down his body.

The one who was trying to summon a terror spirit had to swallow his words again. Because of the Bone Shield, he couldn’t even summon the terror spirit.

“Even the defense for 『Curve Shot』 extends to the terror spirit. Damn it!”

Unlike in the past when Bone Shield only defended in one direction, now it covered his whole body like layers of armor, almost like an ‘egg’.

The terror spirit’s power only activates when it is seen.

So, by enveloping his whole body like that for defense, there was a high chance that the spirit’s ability wouldn’t manifest. That’s why he was looking for a different opportunity.

First, destroy the Bone Shield, and second, use the terror spirit when Faust reveals himself.

“If that doesn’t work, should I just run?”

As he considered this, something sparkled in the far distance at the edge of his sight.

“B-Blaugrunn?! Why are you here!?”

『Leeha-nim!』

The Bronze Dragon has the ability to accurately assess the situation his partner is in. Blaugrunn was flying towards him at full speed. Greenish orbs were gathering around his mouth.

Leeha: What about the dragons!?

Blaugrunn: Once we go a certain distance, the control limits become apparent. Among the rules he set, ‘Kill the White Draagon. Nothing else matters.’

Leeha: No, but! If that White Draagon dies, our plan is-

Blaugrunn: What are you talking about? I told you, if we kill the caster and controller first, everything will be over!

Blaugrunn’s shout made Leeha feel sheepish. In the end, Blaugrunn took a risky gamble knowing Leeha couldn’t handle Faust alone with brute force.

“Tsk, this is really embarrassing. But now that it’s come to this… it’s clear that it’s helpful.”

Above all… Leeha was overjoyed at the presence of a partner who understood his situation better than anyone else and was rushing to his aid.

“Alright, let’s take them out in one go! Koma, step back!”

『Understood!』

Blaugrunn’s chest swelled with pride.

“Damn it, a dragon is showing up out of the blue! Hurry, gather around here, my minions! 『Soul Barrier』!”

Crackle—!

With Jellypong, Leeha moved his body backward.

The lightning breath that Blaugrunn unleashed at full power was blinding to the point where even closing one’s eyes did nothing, and the roar was disorienting enough to shake one’s eardrums.

“Boom!”

“Wow!”

The one who was about to protect Koma couldn’t help but be momentarily speechless as he opened his eyes to the scene before him.

Despite it being a forest full of fir trees, the trees that were there just moments ago had disappeared without a trace. All that was visible was a massive crater as if a meteorite had just struck.

In the center of the crater that was so massive it seemed as though a meteor had fallen, only a few undead creatures managed to maintain their forms under Faust’s shield that was cracked and split, and a few stragglers huddled under his umbrella.

“Alright! Jellypong! Approach at full speed! Kidd, go and wipe out those leftovers!”

“Raaaah!”

Komq, who hadn’t been able to rampage until now against the Death Knights and draugrs, burst forward like a deluge.

After glancing briefly at Blaugrunn who was returning from his faraway encirclement, Faust moved.

“Now, the Death Knights won’t be able to hold back for much long—”

“『Soul Bring』, my fan club members. Expel the souls tainted by injustice! And all Death Knights, catch the dragons. 『Ghost Puppets Summon』.”

“What?!”

Faust wasn’t staying silent either. His combat style had changed from the past when he only dealt with skeleton-based and zombie-based entities to now being able to manipulate spirits of the undead as well.

Koma was a summon that can temporarily reveal a form through the fusion of the advanced fire spirit Ignis and the soul of a fire bear. What if they were to return the soul of the fire bear in this situation?

“That crazy bastard?!”

Faust never neglected his research. Above all, wasn’t he one of the top-ranked necromancers in Middle Earth?

“Crrok, craaaah!”

Koma swung wildly at the translucent entities approaching him, but his burning claws only sliced through the air, lacking the impact to eliminate them.
