107. Dragon King Battle (2)

Smoke arose from the whole body of Dolflare, who was hit by Thor Hammer at point blank range.

「GRAAAAAA!」

Thor Hammer is a great magic of the lightning series.

Even so, Dolflare is the Dragon King.

Normally, Thor Hammer wouldn’t have done much damage.

That’s why I was waiting for the timing at which Thor Hammer would be most effective.

「Was it really effective?」

「GRRRRR……」

Magic bullets shot by a child and hand-to-hand combat unleashed with a child’s body.

Both are attacks which Dolflare can take head on with his scales without doing anything.

That is why Dolflare did not put up a magic barrier.

Moreover, I specifically aimed for the moment Dolflare tried to attack me.

Therefore, Dolflare was defenceless when he was hit with Thor Hammer.

「Bushuuuuuu」

Dolflare exhaled his breath together with smoke.

「Way to go! Will Wolms!」

「Thank you」

Even while thanking him, I fired magic.

Flame, Ice, Earth, Wind, Lightning, Light, Darkness, No-attribute, etc.

A variety of attribute magic is interwoven to make it difficult to defend against.

This time, Dolflare does not try to take them head on with his scales.

He erected a barrier and repelled my magic.

Dolflare then swings his right hand.

This should not be stopped with a barrier.

The barrier would be destroyed in a single hit.

Even if it doesn’t break, I will be blown away together with it.

I evade by jumping back.

Due to the wind pressure from the right hand, I was blown even further back.

In addition, Dolflare attacked with magic bullets right when I landed.

Since my stance was disorganized, I couldn’t dodge this.

I deploy a magic barrier and while defending the magic bullets, I reorganize my stance, and close the gap with Dolflare right away.

「Your fist will not have any effect on me, you know?」

「Maybe」

But I wouldn’t know for sure if it really doesn’t have an effect until I try it seriously.

I went under Dolflare’s torso and canceled my magic barrier.

And I swung my right hand with all my might.

Unlike before when I had my barrier active, I put all my magic into this attack.

If this doesn’t work, I’d better give up on the notion that my physical attack will work on Dolflare.

ーDAAN!

A loud sound rang out, and Dolflare’s scale dented for a moment.

However, it was immediately restored.

Dragon scales are very hard and not brittle.

It does not bend, does not snap, and does not break.

「…GRUUU」

「Did it have an effect?」

「Aa, it did!」

Dolflare seemed to be enjoying this.

He instantly shoots out flame breath without any preparation.

He doesn’t need to inhale nor accumulate power before the breath it seems.

And even then, the breath is unusually powerful.

It is extremely difficult to defend against.

On top of that, I had drawn closer to strike him.

There is no time to dodge.

I erect a magic barrier and shield myself.

ーBishibishibishi

The magic barrier starts cracking with an unpleasant sound.

The soil within the barrier melts.

However, the flame breath itself seems to be prevented.

Perhaps Dolflare had read my thoughts.

ーBON

Dolflare swung his left arm.

ーGagagagagaga

The sharp claws that can rip through even a dragon’s scale, rips up the magic barrier that I deployed.

Extreme hot flames blow in through the gap between the ripped up barrier.

It is just like how Rubeum fights.

Do dragons like this fighting method of breaking the barrier with their claws after their breath is prevented?

I don’t think that was the case in my past life.

「UOOO」

With a war cry, I urgently deployed even more magic barriers from within the torn magic barrier.

Having observed this strategy in the battle with Rubeum proved to be useful.

The amount of flames that reached me was very small.

Due to revitalizing my body with magic, it resulted in a mere small amount of damage.

Just when I thought I managed to get through the predicament,

「GRAAAAA!!」

A severe blow from Dolflare’s tail.

A dragon’s tail is thicker and stronger than the arm.

The difference in strength between a dragon’s tail and its arm is about as different as the strength of human legs compared to their arms.

In addition, the tail attack uses the whole body.

Because of the dragon’s huge body and its weight, the power of the blow skyrockets.

Dolflare’s tail bashed onto my magic barrier from above.

I was blown away together with my magic barrier.

The magic barriers will surely not escape unscathed. The barriers started to fall apart with a cracking sound.

But, I somehow managed to land back and a few magic barriers still stood.

Almost all of the multiple deployed barriers were crushed.

Nevertheless, if even one barrier remains, it’s my win.

「As expected, a dragon’s tail is amazing!」

「Even that wasn’t enough!」

Dolflare sounds to be truly having fun.

Even if he is the Dragon King, there is a limit to childishness.

Dion must have thought that it was overkill, and as he raised a loud voice,

「That’sー」

He probably tried to say「That’s enough」.

However, I don’t want to let it end here.

I immediately return to attacking to interrupt Dion’s match end declaration.

Chapter 108.

108 . Dragon King Battle (3)

I grow a huge rock thorn from right underneath Dolflare .

It is an advanced-level magic called Soil Lance .

「GRR!」

Dolflare was a little flustered .

It would’ve broken through an average dragon’s magic barrier and scales .

It was such a sharp, hard, and very fast attack right from the earth .

However, the Dragon King title isn’t just for show .

His magic barrier breaks but the scales don’t .

「That was within my calculations!」

The purpose of the Soil Lance was to break down Dolflare’s stance .

Just being able to break his magic barrier can be considered a huge success .

「GR……」

Dolflare tried to fix his stance while glaring at me .

(But, I won’t let you . )

I shoot out Magic Tornado horizontally .

With his magic barrier and stance broken, Dolflare takes the Magic Tornado head on .

Dolflare’s stance was broken down even further, and the magic blades in the Magic Tornado wounded his scales .

「GRRRR!」

「Even this doesn’t seem to deal much damage」

Dolflare used his wings to erase the Magic Tornado, and tried to fix his stance .

He can be considered to be relatively defenceless in terms of magic .

Right then, I hit him with Strike Nova .

It is a great magic of the flame series .

A spell that hits with an extremely hot and radiant sphere that you can’t even look directly with your naked eyes .

「GAAAAAAAAA!!」

While roaring loudly, Dolflare hurriedly deployed a magic barrier .

Strike Nova destroys the magic barrier as if evaporating it, and closes in on Dolflare .

Right before Strike Nova makes a direct hit, Dolflare uses his right arm to shield his body .

The scales on his right arm pop off . The flesh under the scales were left exposed and carbonised in an instant .

「GAAAAAAAA!」

I don’t quite know if Dolflare was screaming or roaring .

He immediately clad his right hand which was in the process of carbonizing, with magic and erects a barrier .

And then, crushes my Strike Nova .

「That’s enough!」

Dion’s loud voice resounded .

Dolflare seemed to be dissatisfied .

「…I can still continue」

「Dragon King, what are you saying after sacrificing one arm?」

Dolflare’s right hand was dangling feebly .

And from slightly above his elbow to his claws was carbonized .

「But……」

「Not stopping after sacrificing an arm can only be called a death match」

「…I suppose that is also true」

Before the match began, Dolflare strongly emphasized this wouldn’t be a death match .

If you can’t stop after sacrificing your arm, next you will be sacrificing your life .

As Dolflare also understands this, he stops .

「Will Wolms, you did splendid」

「…Thank you very much」

「I want to have the battle reaction right away, but wait for a while」

Dolflare turned towards the sky and opened his mouth wide .

「GRAAARAAAAGRAAAAAA!!」

He roared towards the sky . It was so loud that it echoed throughout the huge mountain range .

I also look towards the sky .

The number of dragons, which was a dozen before the match, has increased to about fifty .

They must have gathered to watch the match between me and Dolflare .

「「「GRGRGR」」」

The dragons cried out all at once, responding to Dolflare’s roar .

They are probably speaking something in the dragon language .

And the movement of the dragons that were circling changes .

The dragons that were in the sky, descended near Dolflare and me one after another .

It’s not uncommon to see dragons which are bigger than Dolflare’s child that we fought at the beginning .

And there were also many small dragons .

「They want to greet Will, as you have won against me」

「I don’t think I won……」

「GYA! GYA! GYA! Honesty is best!」

「But I don’t think I won either」

At best, it would be a draw .

Neither of us were dealt a fatal wound after all .

「A human child charred the hand of the Dragon King . It’s a win」

「But…」

「If you wish to show me a little respect, you should accept the win」

「Understood . Thank you」

As I said so, Dolflare nodded satisfied .

If a human and a dragon were to fight, it is only obvious that the dragon will win .

Furthermore, I am a child, and Dolflare is the Dragon King . Naturally it would be his complete victory .

Nevertheless, the result of a draw can be considered a win for a human child .

That must be what Dolflare is thinking .

After that, Dolflare licked me from stomach to face .

Dolflare’s tongue was warm, or rather hot .

His tongue was very big .

The tongue itself might be bigger than my body .

「Th-Thank you」

「Umu」

Rubeum said that a dragon licking your face means recognizing you as a friend .

Dolflare has recognised me as a friend .

While I was talking to Dolflare, the dragons stared at me from a little far away .

「g r g r… . . 」

「g r ……」

And then they continuously cried out 「g r g r」 . They must be saying something in the dragon language .

「Everyone, I am Will Wolms . Pleased to make your acquaintance」

For the time being, I introduced myself to the dragons and bowed .

There is no loss in being polite .
