The Resurrection of the Evil Dragon.

The awakening of the evil and traitorous Divine Dragon.

Its roar, which shakes the heavens, shakes the vegetation and makes the creatures living in the wild tremble with fear.

There are very few people in this era who know about evil dragons.

Because his deeds were so horrific that people shunned them, they are not recorded, and only a few people pass them on to future generations. Even if it remains, it will only be depicted as a demon who died without a shadow of a second in the saga of the hero.

But he knows.

He has awakened from a hundred-year seal, the king of the demon tribe -- the Demon King.

At the same time as the roar of the evil dragon resounded, he who sat in the Demon King Territory sensed the presence of the evil dragon before anyone else.

 

「......!」

"How did you do it?" Demon Lord."

 

The maid who was waiting beside him quickly noticed his abnormality and spoke to him.

The Demon King put his hand to his forehead, smiled for a moment, and turned to the maid in a good mood.

 

"No, feel the vibration of the dragon that is so nostalgic."

"Dragon Wave, huh? Then, the dragon ...... Is that what you mean?"

"You're in this day and age, aren't you? Who is alive...... No, two. It's an interesting sideshow. Is this also his doing?"

 

The demon king mutters to himself.

Although she is suspicious of him, the maid listens to him.

From the day he became the Demon Lord's handmaiden, he found that he surprisingly valued interaction with others. His words comfortably attract the hearts of those who listen to them.

Perhaps because of her innate fear, few people wanted to take on the awkward position of the Demon King's handmaiden, but she accepted the task of the Demon King's handmaiden of her own volition.

However, he can't hide his bewilderment at the words of the Demon King, who goes a notch higher than he expected.

 

"He should have been killed just like me before I was sealed.

"Huh......"

"The power is unstable, has someone caused it? It is mixed with some impure magical power. Either way, it seems to be evoked and weakened in an incomplete way."

 

The demon lord closes his eyes and says happily.

I wonder if she senses the vibration of a distant dragon, but as a maid, even if it is said to be a dragon vibration, the word dragon only comes to mind.

After all, the existence of dragons is something that is rarely confirmed at present.

 

"Well, I'm going to ask you a shallow question, I don't really know what the Demon King is talking about......"

"Evil dragon, a despisible being born with only power."

"Evil Dragon ......"

"He's a nasty creature, a stupid creature who doesn't listen, doesn't think, follows only his own instincts, and is born with wisdom but has given up his intelligence."

 

―――I can't imagine.

I didn't even know that such a being existed until now, and the fact that it is waking up somewhere and trying to go on a rampage is somehow unreal.

 

"Destruction and hatred are the only things on his mind, and he was allowed to use them once, but in one night three nations were reduced to ashes. I'll never use that again."

「...... It's terrifying, isn't it?"

 

It is extraordinary for three countries to die in one night.

Although she knew some of the invasions carried out by the Demon King before the sealing, she had never had such an operation to destroy the country in one night.

 

"It's easy to take advantage of him, because all you have to do is give him a place to destroy. But if you try to take the reins, he will bite you immediately. Because he was called a god dragon, he wields the same power as a god, and even I would have a hard time killing him."

I'm not saying that I can't do it, but I'm reminded that this person is out of standard.

However, wouldn't the evil dragon that he claimed to be a bone-breaking being harm not only to humans but also to the demon tribe?

"So, isn't it dangerous to leave it in the wild......?"

"Don't worry, I told you, you're weakening. His power is much lower than it was in his prime. It will decay on its own without me having to do anything about it."

 

Decline is terrifying, the Demon King says with an exaggerated gesture.

I could tell from the expression on his face that he wasn't worried in the slightest, but he immediately put his hand to his chin.

 

"But if left unchecked, he'll die quite a bit, and the hundreds of years of sealing and deterioration of his body simplify his already short-sighted thoughts. The urge to destroy is spurred on, and the brunt of hatred is directed at those who have sealed themselves. The hero of this generation--if he has left a child, his blood relative. And two heroes summoned from the same world as him. No, to be precise, anyone who smells close to him can be the object of his hatred."

"It's like ......."

"Like a beast? Yes, a beast. No creature is more loyal to instincts, more fearful, more arrogant, and more meaningless than him. But on the other hand, there is no creature as pure as him. I despise him from the bottom of my heart, but I appreciate him for a while—and that's why he should have died. At that time, the hero should have been stabbed."

"It was the brave who sealed it, wasn't it? I just couldn't beat him."

"Don't be silly, there's no way that hero can't defeat the evil dragon. It's not that we couldn't beat them, it's that we didn't."

"Huh......?"

 

I don't understand the reason.

The maid was a little confused. Just by listening to the Demon Lord's story, I realized that the Evil Dragon was quite a nuisance. This is especially true for humans.

And yet, did the hero bother to seal the evil dragon that he was supposed to be able to defeat? What was his intention in doing that?

Perhaps sensing the maid tilting her head slightly, he points to herself as if to explain to her.

 

"It's the same with me, he and I were kept alive, in different ways."

"The Demon King was brought alive? Brave, ......?"

"Brave, that's why I was sealed alive."

 

It may be profane, but the hero had power that surpassed even the Demon King, would it be?

The heroes who defeated both the Evil Dragon and the Demon King punished them with compassion and compassion in the form of seals.

It's normal to think so.

If that's true...

 

"The brave seems to be a very sweet person."

 

Words chosen.

To put it honestly, even though he was a demon king, he thought it would be foolish to show mercy to his enemies.

However, the Demon King seemed to be anticipating her words, and he gave her a biting smile.

 

"Kukuku, sweet...... Oh, sweet......

"Demon Lord......?"

 

The maid is confused by him who shakes her shoulders.

Laughing for a moment, he leans his back on the throne and talks to her happily as she stands beside him.

 

"What's your name?"

"......Yes, my name is Ciel."

"Then Ciel, you are my personal maid from today onwards."

「......... Huh?"

 

Sudden declaration of exclusivity.

Moreover, it is exclusive to the Demon King, who stands at the top of the Demon Tribe.

She stiffens at the story that is too heavy for her as a handmaiden, but the Demon Lord, on the other hand, is in a good mood.

 

"The Demon King is idle, and if you don't have someone to talk to, you have nothing to do. In that regard, you have an interesting response. Why, those who are here are too pure."

"That sounds like I'm saying I'm not pure......

"That's what I'm saying."

 

Unconvinced, but honored, the maid, Ciel, bows deeply. She knew firsthand that the Demon King was far more thoughtful and outrageous than she had imagined.

 

 

●

 

 

"Okay, let's run away."

"yes, let's do that."

"Guo"

 

When we saw the evil dragon that Nea had awakened as a zombie, we were quick to judge.

Amako immediately jumps on the back of Bulllin, and I turn around carrying the unconscious Aluk.

Can you deal with something like that?

It's useless to fight, run away and win.

 

"Hahaha!! Nea!! It's good that I tried my best to turn the evil dragon into a zombie, but it was a failure! Do you think you can catch me with such a big thing? !! Retreat!! Doggy Child!!"

"Hey...... Huh!?"

 

For the time being, I'll infite it instead of revenge so far.

When we help Aluk, we have fulfilled our purpose. The villagers are still under her control, but conversely, it is believed that they are safe because they are under her control.

Then you can leave the village now.

As he tries to head towards the village to pick up his horse, he notices a change in the wind around him.

 

"-! ...... the wind behind you?"

 

Drawn in.

When I looked back with a bad premonition, I saw the figure of an evil dragon taking a deep breath.

Is it ...... that the dragon takes a big breath or that's it?!

 

"Bulllin, turn your back!!"

 

He calls out to Bullin and stops, and at the same time, he looks at the evil dragon so that he can respond to the attack from behind. The Evil Dragon's throat swelled greatly after inhaling so much air, and purple smoke leaked from the corner of his mouth and the wound in his throat like a locomotive.

 

"If you're going to throw up, come on...... Whew!"

 

As he braced himself, thinking of the worst way to shake his clothes and brush them off, the evil dragon that had stopped breathing air raised his head and said,

 

"―――――――!"

 

With an inaudible roar, he spat out a large purple mass high in the sky.

Bulllyn and I hurriedly fell to the ground. The mass that was spewed out went over our heads and fell into the woods behind us. As it fell, sludge-like droplets and a tremendous odor were scattered all around.

 

"Well, it's a dragon after all, so it breathes and vomits...... I'......m a little impressed."

 

What am I impressed?

That level of breath is not unavoidable. When he re-carries Alc back and looks forward to hurry ahead, he sees the place where the breath from earlier fell and screams.

The trees that had been overgrown just a moment ago are dying as you look at them -- are they rotting away? And this smell...... Tsu!!

 

", poison!!"

 

Slight dizziness and nausea. He immediately presses his mouth and wears a healing spell.

If you look next to you, Amako is blue in the face, as if she has been poisoned. Bullin still seems to be fine, but if he gets any closer to that sludge, he'll be in danger. Even more so for Mr. Aluk, who is unconscious.

 

"Amako, don't worry, I'll fix it now."

「...... I'm sorry."

 

He lifts Amako from Bulllin's back and casts a healing spell on him along with Alc on his shoulder.

If you don't get away from that evil dragon quickly, if you try to take a detour to try to move immediately, the sludge that the evil dragon seems to have spewed out will fall again.

Subsequently, sludge is scattered around the perimeter of the building, leaving there nowhere to escape.

 

"Are you not going to let it go...... Whew!!"

 

The sludge is dropped to block our path.

The evil dragon stops spitting sludge when I stop, and narrows its eyes suspiciously. It's as if he's looking down on me, and he's looking down on me, as if he's mocking me.

His eyes were familiar.

It has exactly the same eyes as the snake that fought in the forest of Ringle

He enjoys teasing others and makes it the supreme pleasure.

 

"Come on, catch Usato!! Heh, heh, hahaha!!"

 

That little girl didn't understand that, this one.

- Although she is tired of her telling me to capture me with a terrible smile, I put Alc and Amako, who have finished treatment, on the back of Bulllin, who is growling next to me.

He then places his hand on Bullin's body and casts a healing spell on him.

 

"Poison gas...... Protect them from the miasma. ...... No, I really want you to lend me a hand, but I can't leave you two alone."

"Usato ......"

"Don't worry Amako, I'm just going to see if I can beat you with a punch."

"Let's not judge by punching first, okay?"

 

I didn't expect to be gently admonished at such a time.

Rather, it's a criterion for whether you can hit it or not.

It's a bad sign...... Yeah.

Bullin nodded reluctantly at my words.

 

"Vuguwaaa

 

The evil dragon can't seem to wait.

If you look at that notebook, it's an opponent that I can never beat.

But I can't avoid fighting this guy in order to escape. If Alc had been awake, the flames might have burned off that sludge, but now that he can't move, that's impossible.

 

"I'm scared......

 

While exhaling a weak sound, he bounces lightly on the spot.

I haven't seen this kind of horror since that forest. That horrible snake that killed the Grand Grizzly was the first time I was conscious of death, even though I was more inexperienced than I am now.

 

"I'm going to hit you first, and then I'm going to hit you."

 

Even if the enemy changes, what you do does not change.

Even if it is an evil dragon, it is now a zombie. They don't always have the strength they see in their notebooks.

With such a faint hope in his heart, he rushed to the evil dragon approaching him with a roar.

 

 

 

The size of the evil dragon is about 15 meters, which is about the height of four or five floors in an apartment.

The way it crawls on the ground is as slow as a beast in its hands, but when it is turned into a zombie, the wound does not matter.

As you get closer to the Evil Dragon's eyes, the Evil Dragon wields its bloated arms widely.

 

"It's just huge, isn't it--!"

 

I dodge it by lowering myself when it is aimed at me.

Considering the tremendous wind pressure, even I would be able to withstand a direct hit.

Rather, it might be better to think that this guy's attack is almost lethal to a normal human.

 

"Vuugggggigg!!"

"That's a creepy voice......

 

The insect scrapes something, and the expression is astringent to the guy who squeals in a noisy, unpleasant voice.

Partly because his voice sounded like he was laughing...... Even though he was being manipulated as a zombie, he felt something like a will.

This time, instead of slashing sideways, a huge arm is swung down as if slamming from above.

 

"Uh-huh!?"

 

- She dodges by stepping back, but she can't stop sweating when she sees the sight of her nails digging into the ground.

Worst of all, it didn't end with just one time, and this time he started swinging his nails at me like a child who kneaded a.

 

"Oooooh!?"

 

Am I a mole?! Like a whack-a-mole, he tries to get close by rolling around the claws that are swung at him over and over again, but he can't get close to them because of the strong wind pressure generated when he swings down.

This is bad--I feel like that, and once I get my distance, I shout to Nea who is flying in the sky.

 

"Hey!!"

"Hmm, did you feel like giving up?"

"I won't give up even if I mean it! More than that, is this guy really manipulating you?!"

"It's not obvious, I'm the one who can manipulate a corpse that has no soul, right? What's more, my zombies will never disobey orders!!"

"I see...... Oh yes or no."

 

So, can we assume that this guy is now being driven by Nea's will?

Hmm, I see.

Without hesitation, I threw a healing magic bullet at Nea.

 

"Healing Eye Crushing!!"

"Huh!? What, eyes, yes, yes!?"

 

There was a problem with the accuracy, but it hit well. Unlike Aluk, you're dealing with zombies. If you stop her from moving, she will stop on its own.

I screamed like a girl, and glanced at Nea falling to the roof of the mansion like a mosquito falling with a mosquito coil ~ and I looked at the evil dragon that had stopped moving, and clenched my fists as hard as I could.

 

"A dead enemy is no different from a punching bag."

 

You don't need healing magic.

Hit it in earnest.

I squeezed my right fist as if I were drawing a bow, and I rushed straight at the evil dragon that had stopped moving.

There are pitch-black scales in front of me, and when I look at the scales, I remember that snake, but I am different from that time.

I've trained and I've grown a lot.

So-,

 

"Eat it!!"

 

He ran with all his might, carried his entire weight, and thrust out his fist with all his might, probably for the first time in this world, and pierced the chest of the evil dragon without a moment's hesitation.

 

 

 

 

 

―――Yusha, Onagey―――
