“what. “Are you alive?”
【···you!】
Naransonia’s eyes widened. She must have been the human she fought with. She looked at Ronan and Orsay’s necks alternately and let out her confusion.
【Why are you guys here!】
“Ah… that would be too long to explain.”
Ronan scratched the back of his head. Of course he had no reason or time to explain, but he didn’t think anyone would believe him if he told him. Sonia clutched the wound on her chest.
【Big…!】
The wound hurt. I still get shivers just thinking about the fight. The pain from when I was cut by the sword still lingered deep in my skin. Ronan frowned at her as he saw steel spikes growing up her arms.
“What, fighting? “I don’t really want to do that.”
【Shut up! Get the sword right now…
It was the moment when Naransonia was about to say something. Quaaaang! Suddenly, an explosion occurred in a corner of the ceiling. A white-haired boy jumped out of the hole and landed comfortably.
“Wow…surprise. What’s happening?”
Even though he collided head-on with Orsay, there was not a single scratch on his body. Ronan turned his head and raised an eyebrow. It seemed like he knew what Orsay had collided with.
“ok?”
It was definitely Lycopos. Why is it here and not protecting the summit? Moreover, looking at the situation, it seemed like they were fighting against Naransonia.
‘What were you two doing?’
It was a car where Ronan was thinking about various things. The boy who was looking around met Ronan’s gaze. The eyes of both people were flashing an almost similar scarlet color. The boy who was silent for a moment opened his mouth.
“···you.”
The relaxed face became distorted. The playful voice was eerie. When Ronan did not answer, the boy continued.
“You’re lucky. “I never thought I would meet my sister’s enemy here.”
“younger sister?”
“okay. “I won’t say I don’t remember.”
The boy solemnly raised his greatsword and pointed the tip of the sword at Ronan. Ronan narrowed his eyes at the inexplicable sound. Come to think of it, he may have said something like that when we ran into him a few hours ago.
After thinking for a while, Ronan was able to retrieve the boy’s memory of his sister. She said the girl she killed coming down the tower was her sister. He said.
“ah. “That poor bitch.”
“die!”
For a moment, a vein appeared on the boy’s forehead. His figure disappeared from sight. The boy rushed forward in an instant and arrived in front of Ronan in the blink of an eye. The strangely colored protective shield was still wrapped around the boy’s body.
【Dangerous! That shield…!】
Naransonia shouted. She did not know why she had given the warning. Is it because she hates the boy who killed her innocent maids more than Ronan, who defeated her with his skills?
‘late.’
But the warning seemed a little late. Sonia twisted her mouth. Instead of dodging, Ronan responded by standing where she was and drawing her sword.
The elegant sword body was stained with colors reminiscent of a sunset. His slashes were faster, but speed didn’t really matter in front of that shield.
It was the moment when the boy, who sensed his victory, smiled. La Mancha did not stop even after reaching the star’s protection. He was drawing an arc with the blade gently digging into the shield. Ronan said.
“If you just believe in this and go forward, you won’t live long.”
“what?”
The boy’s eyes widened. The star’s protection was crumbling. The scarlet blade was already right in front of his eyes. He tried to escape quickly, but his body wouldn’t move as he wanted.
“Ugh, my body…!”
It felt like the knife was pulling me. The boy, who failed to defend or evade, was trying to shout something. Suddenly! The blade penetrated his ulnar bone and tore through the back of his neck.
There was no will. The boy’s head rose into the air. The color of the sunset covering his sword faded, revealing the sword’s body soaked in blood. Naransonia’s mouth opened.
【···how?】
“I don’t know either.”
thud. The boy’s leaning body fell to his knees. The head fell almost at the same time, soaking the bed with blood. Ronan said, sheathing her sword and turning to her.
“Rather than that, it seems like I saved your life, so let me ask you one thing.”
【what?】
“What the hell is going on up there?”
Ronan asked. As I climbed higher, I felt the flow of mana getting stronger. The ominous feeling that seemed to pierce her entire body was not something that could be dismissed as mere rain.
Naransonia was dumbfounded and said nothing. If things had been the way they were, she wouldn’t have said anything and would have pounced on her until she died. No matter what anyone says, she was a confidant who swore loyalty to Ajidahaka.
However, what the white-haired boy said bothered me. He said that after a few hours everything would be useless. Adding that the world will end soon.
It did not seem to be the will of the monarch he served. Ajda Haka’s purpose was to gain his strength and attack Navarre with his men.
That was why he did not obediently stick his neck out to the boy. No matter how much I thought about it, it didn’t seem like an order from the Dragon King.
【They said that in a few hours… everything would be over.】
After maintaining a short silence, she opened her mouth. Naransonia told me about the conversation she had with the boy and the circumstances surrounding the sudden ambush.
【···That’s what happened. Do you have any guesses?】
“ah. “f*ck.”
Ronan, who was listening, let out a curse. It was not difficult to draw a conclusion.
The Dragon King was planning to finish the ritual today. The ominous feeling piercing his body, the excessive concentration of security forces on the tower, and the absence of the Dragon King himself were all explained.
‘f*cked.’
There was so little time. Ronan immediately turned around and climbed on Orsay’s neck again. He said, tapping the scales.
“I have to hurry. let’s go.”
【Wait, wait! What is going on!】
“I don’t have time. “If you want to protect the king you serve, kill all the white guys.”
【what? What is that…】
Ronan answered without even looking at Naransonia. She was about to say something. Kwaaaaang! Orsay’s large, shaking body soared through the ceiling.
【Ugh!】
The enormous wind pressure threw Naransonia backwards. A black wall seemed to be rising before her eyes. Her body and wings, hidden beneath her, were much larger and more swollen than when she had met Orsay in her past.
Eventually, Orsay completely escaped. bang! bang! bang! A crashing sound could be heard through the hole in the ceiling.

【What the hell…】
Naransonia stood up unsteadily and clenched her fists. The hole that appeared in the middle of the lair seemed to be at least 200 meters in diameter. All kinds of debris, debris, corpses and screaming people were falling down below.
****
【Kaaaaaa-!!】
“Good, don’t stop!”
The ignorant breakthrough resumed. Ronan’s plan was to take Orsay and attack from the inside. The ice armor created by Asher and the wind of Schlieffen were assisting him.
Ronan got the idea for this strategy from Naransonia’s headbutt that broke the outer wall of the tower. Wearing steel armor, she smashed the outer wall of Sky Tower, which was difficult to insert even a needle into, in a spectacular manner.
She did it, but there was no way our Orsay couldn’t do it. Fortunately, the prediction came true wonderfully. Asher’s screams echoed pitifully from the dragon’s soaring back.
“Ugh! Hiyaaaaa! Kyaaaaaak!”
He was holding on to the thorns on Orsay’s back as if they were a lifeline. Ronan and Schlieffen crouched down next to the crying Asher. The place where Orsay’s neck and torso connect. That hollow section was the only safe area on this crazy flight.
-bang!
-Quaang!
-Quaaaaa!!
A regular, explosive roar was shaking the tower. Every time Orsay broke through a floor, a desperate scream could be heard. Of all the creatures that collided with his body, none of them had their limbs torn except for the Lycopos boy he had met earlier.
“Save people!”
“What is this…Keuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!”
The ice that grew in the form of armor destroyed everything it touched. The wind created by Schlieffen created an upward current around his body, increasing his speed.
“No, they are coming! Stop it!”
“Huh, how?! Hahaha!”
Originally, they tried to make it easier to break through the ceiling by inflicting shock with a slash or telekinesis, but that was just a useless concern. In less than a minute, Orsay broke through five floors and roared loudly.
【Get out of the way, you bastards!】
Nothing could stop Orsay. Orsay, who changed into his true form, was literally the demon dragon of legend.
Each time the four wings flapped, the ceiling collapsed and the scenery changed. The black dragon soaring, destroying the tower from the inside, literally seemed to embody the word reverse heaven.
Suddenly, an incredibly wide space opened up in front of them as they ascended without obstruction. The sound of metal clanging was making noise. The group’s eyes widened.
“here is···!”
It was a familiar place. A golden desert spread out. The magnificent space, with no end in sight, was originally a place to lay the body of the Dragon King.
However, the Dragon King was not visible. All that remained was his vast wealth, swirling down the hole Orce had dug up and disappearing.
“It’s the throne room. “Have we come this far already?”
“This stomach seems normal.”
Schlieffen said. I could definitely feel that things were becoming more unpleasant and closer to normal. Cham la la la…! The gold coins that had risen with Orsay were pouring down like rain.
Above this is the Dragon King. I didn’t know what was happening, but I was sure of one thing. You have to fight a fierce battle with the dragon that comes next to Navarre. Ronan took a deep breath and opened his mouth.
“let’s go.”
Orsay increased his speed without saying a word. The end has come to the space that seemed to last forever. Quaaaaang-! The night sky unfolded beyond the shattered ceiling.
“ah···!”
Cool air swept through my lungs. They were hovering in the sky much higher than the top of the tower. It was because the speed was too fast.
The sky toward the end of dawn was a little closer to blue than black. The stars, which were slowly cooling down, were scattering a will-like brilliance. At that time, a familiar voice rang out from below.
【Welcome. Grace and-】
【Those who do not know the subject.】
Ronan lowered his gaze. At the top of the tower, a gold dragon so huge that it was difficult to see at a glance was spreading its wings. It was the Dragon King Ajidahaka. Nebula Clazier’s followers dressed in white were standing around him.
“for a moment.”
Ronan’s eyes suddenly widened. At the feet of the Dragon King, there was a magic circle with the light turned off.
The head, which had been cut in half just a few hours ago, was now complete. Unlike its friends, the third head growing to the left of the center was covered with white scales reminiscent of the moon.
【Is that the Demon Dragon Orsse? It’s more ordinary than I thought.】
The third head spat out harshly. It is a phenomenon whose meaning is self-evident. Asher’s face turned pale.
“No way, I’m already conscious…!”
“Nimi. “Are you one step too late?”
Ronan twisted his lips. He seemed to be late even though he hurried as much as he could. But that wasn’t what we needed to worry about right now. Inside the mouths of his three wide-open heads, the pure white sun was shaking one by one.
【Repenting for abandoning your grace-】
【Disappear in the starlight.】
This was really not good. The quivering sphere containing inestimable magical power seemed to have been prepared even before they arrived. The third head spoke.
【Goodbye, trash.】
“Damn it, avoid it!”
Ronan shouted. Quaaaaa! At the same time, the shape of the sun collapsed and three rays of light came out. The beams shot toward the same target merged into one in the air, explosively increasing their scale. My eyes turned white as if lightning had struck.
‘Die.’
At that moment, everyone, including Ronan, felt death. The grotesquely white glow looked like an eraser meant to completely erase their existence. It was the moment when the light was about to engulf them.
‘Not yet.’
In an instant, Ronan’s time stretched out. The senses of his entire body were on edge as he faced his crisis. The fiercely roaring wind silenced his mouth. In a world that had slowed down, the only one who could move as usual was Ronan himself.
It couldn’t end here. He instinctively pulled out his sword and grabbed the hilt with both hands. A bright crimson color, like blood that had just come out of the body, filled the sword body.
Cut it in one go. With that determination, Ronan put all his strength into his waist and swung his sword. The horizontally drawn sword path expanded dozens of times, drawing a huge crescent moon.
Sigh…! A black line crossed the white world. The night sky beyond the line, that narrow gap, was the only way to save my life.
The stagnant sound was being heard again. As time returned to its original state, Ronan shouted.
“Orse!”
【Don’t order me!】
Only then did Orsay come to his senses and attempted to break through by spreading his wings horizontally. The increasingly widening gap swallowed them. A scream burst out of Asher’s mouth as he finally became speechless.
“Hiyaaaaa!!”
“Ugh…!”
Schlieffen gritted his teeth. It was like sailing through the sun on a comet. The white light, pulsing with destructive power, narrowly passed by the tops of their heads and Orsay’s hind legs. The ice armor that touched the light was disintegrating into particles and disappearing.
After what seemed like an eternity of seconds, the night sky finally unfolded before my eyes. Because of the light halo that was so intense, Adren turned into a landscape that was as good as day. Ronan growled.
“I lived. “You bastards.”
【this-】
【This is ridiculous!】
Two heads burst out in confusion. A pure white afterglow was leaking out from their mouths like smoke. He looked a little tired, perhaps because he had used so much effort. The newly sprouted head opened its mouth.
【Don’t panic. Just go one step further.】
Unlike the previous heads, his cool-headed attitude stood out. However, the dragon they were riding was not easy either. Orsay’s four wings spread out like an explosion.
【Do you think they will leave it that way!】
The demon dragon’s roar shook Adren. The fact that her life had been saved by a human was causing her unbearable anger. Orsay folded his four wings and began to descend vertically.
