TDADP chapter 217: Dragon extermination

「Ouu!」

It is as if Kuro attacked with a fighting spirit that overflows from his whole body to the monsters.

「Gogaaaaaaaauuuuaaaaau」

On the other hand, from the group of monsters, sad cries were heard everywhere, as if to shake off fear. Behind the group of monsters, the wood dragon was approaching to catch up, and the giant crushed the monsters that had escaped without mercy. The monster running at the top approaches forty meters ahead of Kuro. Kuro was the first to strike.

「Munn!」

Kuro´s upper body is enlarged, and holding in his right hand, the Tenma Andromarius Large Hammer, he struck against the ground. He released the hammer technique 『Earth Wall』. As the crushed earth is seen, it forms a wall and soars up as if to reject the advancement of the monsters. Kuro swings the hammer further just because it is not enough. As the earth responds to Kuro’s wishes, earth walls are formed one after another.

「Gaaa!?」

「Byaaaa!?」

Something surprised the monsters at the top. Suddenly a huge wall appeared in front of them. The monsters who ran all the way to escape from the wood dragon tried to stop suddenly, but the monsters rushing from behind did not allow it.

「Gapyuu......」

「Gyann!」

「Abovee...... uuu......」

Sandwiched between the earth walls and the monsters which rush from the rear, hundreds of monsters which were running at the head died. Still, the number of escaping monsters is still over 10.000 monsters. They trample on the monsters that were crushed to death, overcome them, and hit the earth walls.

「Buooooooooo!!!」

When one polygonal rhinoceros breaks through the earth wall, monsters invade at once. Monsters appear one after another from the torn earth wall and pass by Kuro. There is no sign of attacking Kuro. That’s quite natural. The purpose of the group of monsters is to escape from the wood dragon.

「Master is looking at a certain man. You can’t afford to miss a single one」

Kuro puts power in his left arm. A squeaky sound leaks out from the Bloody Earth Battle Ax, which is gripped in the left hand. The next moment, Kuro makes a full turn on the spot. The blade with a fighting spirit that stretches from the battle-ax in accordance with the rotation of Kuro slashes the monsters in a circle. Dozens of monsters are torn into half in a horizontal line, and after a moment, they split into the upper and lower body, while the upper body falls to the ground as if sliding down from the lower body. The remaining lower bodies run in inertia, but when they slow down as if it remembered that there were no upper bodies, they fell down to the ground. Kuro released the ax technique 『Full Qi Beheading Axe』. It is a technique that turns Qi into blades and rotates to cut everything inside the circle. The range that the blade exerts depends on the user, but it is about five meters in radius by the one that the arm stands. However, the range of 『Full Qi Beheading Axe』 released by Kuro is now more than 30 meters.

「Oh. That black goblin is getting stronger」

Joseph praises Kuro while lying on the hill that Yuu has created with earth magic so that he can bother looking from far away.

「It’s not a black goblin. It’s Kuro」

「Is that the name? Well, is a wood dragon really made up of trees? When I was in Derim Empire, I saw a sand dragon, but it’s more like rock than sand, and it is hard to pass a blade through its body」

「It’s only natural that you can do that much because you’re calling yourself Master´s servant. Apart from that, master, that wood dragon」

「You want to say it might have been manipulated?」

Russ nodded silently to Yuu’s words, and he picked his nose to see if Joseph was not interested.

「Is it the work of the Minister of Finance?」

「I don’t think he’s that stupid」

「He may feel like taking over the country after manipulating the wood dragon, causing a riot in the country and raising dissatisfaction from the folk grass to the country and the king」

「Will he still attack your country?」

「It’s possible if it’s a human」

「Like the one who made up an army of demi-humans and destroyed a country?」

Russ’s reaction was silent, but the magical power released from his whole body was unstable and disturbed as if mixed emotions were intertwined.

「Kuro and the wood dragon will soon collide」

Yuu and Russ look at Joseph’s words. There was Kuro´s figure fighting while surrounded by thousands of corpses. At first, it was a group of monsters that tried to run through ignoring Kuro, but the instinct, not the head, understood that it would not be possible to get through if they don’t eliminate Kuro, who did not allow it.

「Gaaaaa!!!」

「Gogaaa!!」

「Voooooooo!!」

There is no such thing as cooperation. It is an attack that makes the numbers speak.

「Laughable」

Each time Kuro wields his weapons, the monsters will breathe out while sprinkling pieces of meat. Or rather, if Kuro was not the other party, the number of violence might have passed. But Kuro is an undead. The body, without knowing fatigue, did not show any slight decline, and it was possible to always move at full power.

「What’s the matter? You’re not going to come again?」

The runaway of the group of monsters has stopped. A group of over 10,000 monsters was stopped by a single goblin. If they move forward, death awaits. If they return, the wood dragon that is approaching from behind will instead be their death. The herd of monsters had to decide how to survive.

「Nuu!?」

The earth wall exploded. Everything from what had been pierced by monsters to what was newly created by Kuro shattered in all directions. The fragments of the blown-up earth walls don’t give the monsters time to sit while they run away and penetrate their heads and bodies. Of course, the fragments also attack Kuro, but Kuro wears 『Contest』and let them go past. He couldn’t afford to show a chance here. That is because the person who caused the disaster was looking down at him.

「As expected it is a dragon. Did it break through a certain someone’s earth wall just by shaking its tail?」

The wood dragon, who is 70 meters long, stared at Kuro with its eyes dyed in red.

「For the other party――」

Before Kuro’s words finish, the wood dragon’s eighth rank spirit magic 『Creation Tree Birth - Kusahael』 is activated. Something grows as if the vegetation regenerates faster than the ground, clinging to the bodies of the monsters and strangle them while taking them into its body. The monsters who panicked to be taken in are caught by the branches of the vines and trees that grow from the ground one after another and dissipate their lives.

The monsters that remain with thousands of corpses also served as the food for the forest created by the wood dragon. The wood dragon destroyed the flock of monsters, which Kuro had reduced to half by using his skills and ax technique and his own body, in an instant.

Kuro looks around. A plain with a good view was transformed into a forest by the magic of the wood dragon.

「Wa, What a real magic, a mighty magic! To kill all the monsters that certain someone has reduced to half with a single magic!!」

Kuro looked up at the wood dragon while wiping away the vines which tried to strangle him. On the other hand, the wood dragon looked at Kuro as if it had shaken the body slightly.

「Gohaa......」

While the tail of the wood dragon folds down the trees, Kuro’s body rises high. Along with the scattered trees, Kuro soars to an altitude of several hundred meters. The helmet, armor, gauntlets and other armor that had been protecting Kuro’s body for a long time were shattered like glass and scattered into the sky, even though they were overworked and aged in 『Devil’s Prison』

「Moron! Because he is under pressure, he’ll eat such an attack」

「Are you worried about Kuro?」

「No, I’m not! He is just master’s servant, but I’m just annoyed by that biting louse!」

Russ floats in the air, and his robe flutters as soon as he is out of his mind.

「Master, it’s not too late. Please leave it to me」

「It looks like Kuro hasn’t given up yet」

Despite his armor and bones being broken, Kuro never let go of his weapons. On the contrary, he is more eager to fight and capture the forest and wood dragon that spread under his eyes. Kuro, who descends at a speed of several hundred kilometers per hour, shoots the hammer technique of violent destruction just before coming into contact with the ground. With the roaring sound, the trees and the earth disappear. A huge crater was engraved on the ground, and Kuro appeared from the dust cloud.

「Dragon blow, I engraved it into this body」

The wood dragon breathes in as much as it doesn’t deserve to hear these words. The chest of the wood dragon swells strangely, and 『Dragon Breath』 is released from the mouth of the wood dragon at the same time as eyes meet with Kuro. A huge amount of magic power transforms into a tree, turning into thousands of spears and attacking Kuro.

「I can’t dodge this」

Kuro’s judgment was fast. An earth wall is created by the hammer technique 『Earth wall』 when Kuro understood that he couldn’t dodge. However, the wood spears created by the wood dragon penetrated the thick earth wall like paper and filled the earth with wooden spears like a sword mountain.

「Ah......」

Unexpectedly, Russ leaks a voice.

「Looks like he is okay」

「I didn’t say anything」

A black haze covered Kuro’s body, which was cleared by shaking the ax from the smoke. The black haze increased in density, becoming even darker and covered Kuro´s whole body like armor.

「Nn. What is it, Yuu?」

Joseph asks Yuu while scratching his butt.

「4 rank Dark Magic 『Armor of darkness』. It’s similar to what Russ uses」

「Goblin... so cheeky」

Until now, he always despised him as biting louse. Did Russ, who never acknowledged Kuro, make a statement that he admits him, but didn’t realize?

「I see. By the way, isn’t that tree dragon strange? I feel like it’s getting weaker over time. And isn’t it too weak for a dragon?」

「You’re a gorilla, but you’re good at intuition」

「Master, that’s rude to gorillas」

「You guys」

Yuu, who has 『Spirit World Magic Eyes』 and Russ, who has 『Truth Investigation』, noticed the wood dragon´s abnormal condition 『Frenzy』 and 『Abnormal Growing』. It was no wonder that Yuu was impressed.

----------------

「As expected...... as expected, it is a dragon that is said to be one of the strongest races. A moment’s alertness immediately leads to death. However, a certain someone cannot afford to lose, too. Master is watching and who said that a goblin like him, which is the weakest race, would win against the dragon. I will kill you and present you to Master」

Kuro’s whole body shrinks as if it was compressed.

「Igii!」

The ground explodes. A black arrow strikes the wood dragon as it sews through the trees. On the other hand, there was no sign of panic from the wood dragon. To begin with, one’s own feelings are not understood well in such a state. There seems to have been something important, but the more it tries to think about it, the redder its eyes become, and it is influenced by the will to kill. And, it understood that it was not possible to hurt its body even if it’s the small person in front of its eyes. When those small people attacked in a group a while ago, the wood dragon was struck by an unexpected depth, because the movement was blocked at the border and there were two clever swordsmen. It’s different now. There are no 30,000 small fries, and there are no two clever swordsmen. To harm itself――

「Don’t be so proud」

Small――certainly the weakest race among the small fries called goblin. The weakest goblin whisper reached the ear of the wood dragon. Even when the black haze moved from the whole body to the right arm and the wood dragon looked at Kuro, who was focused and swing his hammer, it was still unaware of the dead odor drifting in its body. Perhaps because of the 『Frenzy』 state or because he was the weakest goblin among the small fries, the wood dragon didn’t even show any signs of avoiding it. When Udon kingdom´s boasting 30,000 elite soldiers radiate magic, the wood dragon repelled everything, but it’s dragon scales of the abdomen were shattered. It was not able to recognize that it was a real event yet.

「Winning!」

When the Tenma Andromarius Large Hammer shines brilliantly, the wood dragon´s bounds and body are further weakened by the skill 『Physical resistance and Magic resistance of the target are halved』. Kuro will not miss this opportunity. The wood dragon doesn’t understand what’s going on. No, Kuro slams the hammer technique 『Hammer Mark』 onto the wood dragon´s right leg. The earth echoes as if the earth was screaming. Most of the forest created by the wood dragon disappeared, and the bottom vanished from the base of the thigh of the wood dragon, which was directly hit by 『Hammer Mark』. When the wood dragon loses one leg and can no longer maintain its balance rolls over, a second reverberation occurs. The goblin looking down under its eyes spread his hands in front of its eyes and squeezed his weapons.

And the wood dragon understands that death is approaching itself for the first time. The wood dragon cried out, unfortunately.

「Wood dragon. Don’t disappoint a certain someone」

Those were the words that the wood dragon heard at the end. A dragon with a strong regeneration. The wood dragon is stabbed to death shortly after the powerful regeneration is activated. When the third earth sound occurred, the life of the wood dragon disappeared at the same time. And in front of Kuro, who killed the wood dragon, there were the figures of a thousand knights led by Param, 『Knight that brings absolute victory』.
