Chapter 121

Taekwon (Z)

A black liquid-like oil hit the ground. Only recently did I confidently declare that I wasn’t afraid of heavenly punishment, but now I would like to avoid the deadly poison falling from the heavens. It felt like germs raining on my body.

My movements were quick.

Grabbing the huge egg and throwing it over my right shoulder with my left hand, I grabbed Tamer E by the scruff of her neck.

”Kek kek?!”

Her throat tightened, and she made strange noises, but wasn’t it better than taking a shower in deadly poison? In this state, I spread the wings of a just Hero.

Whing-

And immediately soared into the sky as the deadly poison swept across the earth like a flood. The beautiful gorge turned black, the animals and plants within darkening with poison and dissolving.

“Chaooo…!”

The Supreme Dragon of Oblivion, Noebius, is said to be the strongest of the Five Disasters. It took the form of a huge dragon whose body was completely covered with pitch-black scales. Every time he flapped his huge wings, a hurricane arose, and the claws on both his paws were so huge that they could easily topple a castle.

Such is the Ancient Dragon in the later years of his life. Just looking at him inspired awe! He was very different from the Junior King Dragon of Oblivion raised by the angels as he was at the Heroes Festival.

How could I defeat it? It would be easier to deal with a high-level demon. Ah! The Demon Lord, with its penalty against the Hero, was easier to defeat. My dear companion stared at me with his black eyes and frowned, most likely since he didn’t see well in his old age.

▷ Race: Chaos Dragon

▷ Level: 999+

▷ Specialization: Supreme Ruler (Conquests → Morale ↑)

▷ Skills: Chaos SS, Destruction SS, Oblivion SS, Morale S, Deadly Poison S…

▷ Condition: Anger, Excitement, Withering

It had been fifteen years since we met, but his skills remained the same as I remembered them in the 2nd playthrough. He didn’t have a single transcendental skill, but the race and level more than covered all this.

“Indeed…it’s incredible.”

I could see more as I grew. During the 2nd playthrough, I was able to bring down the King Dragon of Oblivion, Noebius. But to be more precise, due to his age, he didn’t have enough stamina, and it was more like self-destruction.

So it was hard to call it a real victory, and I only used the Elemental Sword Endymion to finish off the dying dragon. It could be said that he died of old age during acupuncture.

Flap! Flap! Flap!

Noebius flapped three pairs of wings and launched an attack. It seemed as if a high-rise building was flying at me. However…

”Poor eyesight…”

Noebius was unable to fly straight, his trajectory shifting slightly. It was like the huge truck heading straight for you passed by you to the side, but Noebius’s body was so huge that it was almost impossible to dodge.

Think for yourself. How can you avoid a tsunami?

Thud!

I hit the huge black wall and was tossed to the side. If we had a similar build, I would have won easily.

It’s a simple principle because my muscles have surpassed human limits. Such transformations were the result of the teachings of Master Mollan. But the difference in weight played a big role.

Absolute strength is directly related to the cross-sectional area of ​​the muscles. I have developed my muscles to extreme values, but when the difference in cross-sectional area is more than 100 times, then it’s a completely different story.

When you have such destructive power in front of you, there can be no talk of efficiency.

► Rapture: Unbelievable. His skills are similar to those of the other Five Disasters, but the difference in combat power is enormous.

Of course. Miss Trainee. It wasn’t for nothing that I recognized him as a companion.

“Oh my…”

After flying some distance in a somersault, I came to a stop, regaining my balance. And this wasn’t the easiest achievement because, from the wings of Noebius alone, a hurricane arose. Its very existence was a real disaster.

Hence it reached the rank of the Five Disasters.

”Hey. Are you okay?”

“…”

Tamer E didn’t answer; Her limbs hung limply by her side. She seemed to have broken her neck from the recent blow.

But it was a relief.

Level 2813 → Level 2833

Because it turned out as if I killed her, her experience points were completely transferred to me. Only this growth didn’t please me very much.

Because even after absorbing 100% of the level 800 elf’s experience points, my level only went up by 20? It seemed that with such a high level, conventional hunting would no longer help.

Due to the lack of fair game.

▶ Race: Natural Human

▷ Level: 2833

▷ Specialization: Hero (Experience 500%)

▷ Skills: Spirit MAX, Blessing MAX, Taming SS, Inspiration SS, Endurance S …

▷ Condition: Holy Sword, Saint, Magic Sword

I’m superior to Noebius when it comes to the skill ranks. But the problem was that the skill composition was similar to the weak elves. Strength and endurance are S rank on average…it didn’t grow higher from that.

”Take this and step back.”

”Yes, master.”

I left the dragon egg and the dead Tamer E to the Saint H and looked at my circling comrade. It seemed as if a volcano had uprooted and was now floating in the air.

”Good opportunity.”

Every free minute you need to prepare for the future. Someday the day will come when I will completely lose my fantasy world skills. And in such unfavorable conditions, I will fight the slaves of the fantasy God who abuses those skills.

Would I be able to win then?

And the Black Box was no exception. When I didn’t know anything, I just used it whenever I wanted. But in the cave, the priestess told me that the First Hero invented this power. The Old Prince said the same thing.

To be honest, I didn’t care. The fact that he invented it doesn’t mean that he patented it.

But recently I changed my mind. In that video recorded in the Chaos Artifact, the First Hero attuned to this power, enclosed in a brooch once given to his wife. So that only the descendants of the pathetic Third Elven King can use it…

And that means a lot.

“Chaooooo-!”

”Tsk. You don’t give me any time to think calmly.”

It is difficult now to say that the Black Box is my strength. There’s a possibility that the First Hero could control everything. I cannot lay my life on such an unreliable force; I can only believe in myself.

Now is a good time to experiment.

How will it go when one of the Five Disasters is my target?

▶ Race: Natural Human

▷ Level: 2833

▷ Specialization: Hero (Experience 500%)

▷ Skills: ■■ S, Interpretation A

▷ Condition: Magic Sword, Saint

Presumably created by the First Hero, I sealed the Holy Sword and the skills I placed in the Black Box. My body instantly became lethargic.

”Then again…”

Thud-!

I collided with Noebius and circled through the air before falling. Since I sealed the defensive skills, the damage was even greater. Several ribs were broken.

End of experiment. Sorry for the reckless daring. It’s hard to even call it a battle!

“Chaooo…?”

This chapter is scrapped from readlightnovel.org

Without even noticing that he had touched me with his body, the blind Ancient Dragon, who was circling in the air once more, was looking for me. It seems that he couldn’t find me since I was too small.

”Ah! Due to poor eyesight, he can only track my energy. But…”

Glance! Glance! Glance! Glance! Glance!

The spirit of the Earth, Fire, Wind, Water, and Ether, stuck to my body.

The energy I radiated was pretty strong.

“Chaooo!”

As expected, the King Dragon of Oblivion, Noebius, found me. He no longer used sight but simply tracked energy thanks to years of experience. Then he opened his mouth, aiming at me.

”Oh my god!”

In a hurry, I invested experience points in the Magic Sword.

Bang!

Black and green energies collided in the sky, causing a big explosion. The winner was visible.

“Chaooo-!”

”Without antibodies that eliminate poison, I would have died…”

During the 2nd playthrough, I actively produced antibodies in my body to survive the poisonous breath of the King Dragon of Oblivion, Noebius. And now it was the same. Leukocytes produced from the bone marrow in large quantities, using phagocytosis, created antibodies that eliminated the deadly poison.

But my body was still badly frayed. I could withstand the deadly poison of the King Dragon, but the physical damage was significant; it was as if a huge water cannon struck me. My whole body ached and screamed.

Through the torn clothes, the spirits looked at me plaintively, as if trying to say: “We can help!”

”No. Don’t get involved.”

Up to this point, I have constantly retreated due to the difference in the weight class, but I also had an unusual body.

Sururu, Wooduk, Bbuduk…

The broken bones healed, snapping into place as drooping tendons pulled tight. I realized that I had no chance of success if we faced off like that again.

Then…

Thud! Pook-

I learn from my mistakes. Confronting Noebius once more, I didn’t lose my focus and moved my wings adroitly. Like sticking a piton between a rock while rock climbing, I hooked my wings on the scales of his front wing.

I didn’t fall and hung there.

“Chaooo?!”

Realizing this, the Dragon tried to kick me off with his paws. But I also predicted that.

I made a new bond as I unhooked from Noebius’s wing and jumped to another body part. The principle was the same as in rock climbing.

It felt like I’d become Spider-Man.

I soon reached the base of his wing, where the dragon couldn’t reach me. First, I need to take away this insane speed, so I put experience points back into the Magic Sword.

I’ll cut off his wing nicely!

Boong-

But my blow cut only the air. And the reason was simple.

Polymorphism.

Like a kumiho [TL: Fox spirit], transforming into a human, a dragon with certain skills could also change race. Many dragons pretend to be young humans, but Noebius acted as his age.

“This image hasn’t appeared for a long time,” came a solid male voice.

But his form wasn’t entirely human. His skin was gray, and his pupils were in the form of a black vertical line, like a reptile. A black, curved horn pierced the center of his forehead. He was naked, but the important parts of his body were covered with scales.

Three pairs of wings hung down, covering his back like an imperial mantle, and arms and legs like a carnivorous dinosaur peaked out from underneath.

”Are you, Noebius? ” I asked doubtfully, descending to the ground burned by deadly poison.

”Yes, Hero of Chaos.”

The transformed Noebius replied in the affirmative. He had such a large physique that I had to crank my head to look at him. He had deep wrinkles on his forehead, which spoke of the severity of his years.

But he didn’t give off the impression of an old man.

Every time he made any movement, all his muscles moved, and his beard, which had grown down past his chest, was black. But there was a reason why I couldn’t believe my eyes.

His Status.

▷ Race: Chaos Dragonian

▷ Level: 999+

▷ Specialization: Supreme Ruler (Conquests → Morale ↑)

▷ Skills: Taekwon Z, Swordsmanship SSS, Chaos SS, Destruction SS, Oblivion SS…

▷ Condition: Cool Head, Wither, Transfiguration

It is quite expected that when you change the form to a human, then some skills can be sealed and some added, but I did not expect this.

”Taekwon Z? What a joke…”

It was strange to see such a skill with a dragon, whose hind legs were short from birth.
