Chapter 524. Noryong's Struggle (2)

“...It seems to have been reproduced here based on the monster information collected from each world.”

Until now, she had only dealt with monsters that existed here, but she brought out things from other worlds as well.

It means that it was deliberately deliberate.

‘Are you taking out the monsters you've been hiding?'

I'm speechless, so I'm speechless.

I really wanted that other side to struggle, but that struggle got a little bigger.

‘Shen can't be defeated by an enemy that small. But... other dragons...

There is no law that a war can be won with one outstanding individual on the battlefield.

It might be an invasion, but the current situation is the exact opposite.

What is needed is a large number of excellent people rather than an extremely strong individual.

Even if Shen tries his best, his hands are not enough to fully defend this place.

After all, he's not really going to fight here.

I didn't say it myself, but I can't fool my eyes.

Well, I'm not shameless enough to force myself to go there.

‘...If I don't go and help, I think it'll be difficult to protect it.'

Even now, if you give up the eggs, stop working, and run away, you can block them.

that's the next best thing

[...]

“If you wait a little longer, the egg will finish healing.”

The vitality felt in the eggs is already quite strong.

One minute is enough.

But one minute is more than enough for those monsters to trample and invade the city.

It seems like there is not much left, but it feels like it is still far away.

What should I do?

I glanced at the old old dragon behind me.

[...]

Edrels remains silent.

There is no sign of restlessness or worry like before.

It doesn't appear that he is deliberately silent so as not to disturb me.

[Arel Ernesia. You lived quite a long time, right?]

“What is it?”

[I want to ask.]

I'm too busy to have time for questions.

Still, I kept my ears open.

[Does life have any meaning for us?]

What is the sound of licking dog poop?

[Is there any meaning in living life fiercely for those of us who repeat our lives?]

“That sounds very ambiguous.”

I pretended to nod my head for a while.

“I don't know.”

I gave only irresponsible answers.

“It is up to each person to judge what it means and what it means. If each of us looks back and understands it at the end, it must be meaningful.”

it's your life

Who is to judge its value?

“Whether you live hard or not, that’s up to you to decide. That is the attitude of living as a reincarnated person.”

[.....]

He went into silence again.

And after silence.

[I'll still take care of the eggs.]

Suddenly, he left only those words and stood up.

Until now, he couldn't even walk on his own feet the whole time because of the limitations of his body.

It was the first time that he showed himself in motion.

“???? you.”

Knowing the meaning, I didn't bother to say anything else.

[Even if that's not the case, I'm thinking about how to decorate the end...

At least I won't start with regret at the beginning of my next life.]

“...I guess so.”

[Then I'll leave it to you.]

After saying that, Edrels drew out the remaining mana.

Even though it is old, the mana emitted by a road-class dragon is not normal.

It starts emitting intense golden light from its body.

But that's not something he emits to show off his strength.

Mana that can't be recovered... It's just that the body can't overcome his mana, so it's just leaking out.

In my eyes, his figure is rather dangerous than strong.

But on the other hand, it also looks stronger than any other dragon.

So don't bother drying it.

They have already passed the stage of simply saying pain.

Normally, if you cross the limit, you won't feel any more pain or anything.

Rather, Edrels smiled bitterly in pain.

“...this monster.”

However, the reincarnated person who inserted the stake took a step back in a hurry, although the visible side did not know how to accept the meaning.

Perhaps he expected a counterattack or was frightened by his reaction.

Either way it doesn't matter

Anyway, he's already.....

[...Oh my gosh.]

The old dragon's body fell forward.

cooong!

Red dirt stained with blood echoes with a heavy sound.

[...I can't move anymore.]

I can't see the enemy anymore, I can't feel the pain, and I have no energy.

[One minute...wasn't enough...B.]

Even his will is shattered in vain.

Now the end is really here.

Is this really the end?

Will this life end with this?

Edrels was about to close his eyes quietly after giving up on holding out any longer.

“...57 seconds. Well, you held up pretty well, old dragon. no I must say this. You who walk the same path as us.”

I heard someone muttering.

And that someone puts something down in front of Edrels.

For some reason, even in such a situation, its shape is faintly visible.

All eggs.

The egg has cracks for some reason.

It is already severely cracked, as if it would break at any moment.

However, he immediately recognized what it was and whose egg it was.

“On the contrary, I feel sorry for holding on so well. So check the remaining three seconds.”

What are you talking about? I couldn't understand.

That moment.

shred.

A small sound was heard.

The shell of the egg cracked and the one with its head sticking out was a small dragon.

Golden scales...

A small dragon that is still soft but has scales that undoubtedly glow gold.

“This is your end. One minute for this.”

With that declaration, the focus disappeared from Edrels' eyes.

There was no doubt that the little dragon was reflected in those pupils.

silently admiring it. A gray-haired young man.

Arell murmured softly.

“Edrels. You ended up living another life of your own, no doubt brilliantly. i don't guarantee I'm sure you're the right person to be called a real reincarnated person.”

Rarely sincere respect, Arel spoke words of recognition.

“So be proud.”

This time, the old dragon is gone.

It wouldn't be cool to check it separately.

I saw Edrels, who no longer moved, and the newborn dragon, who tilted his head and pressed his cheek with his paw.

In the meantime, Nerell staggers down behind me.

It seems that he managed to break through to this point with quite a bit of force.

“oh! is it blind? A lot of hard work.”

[What about loading...? Is that so?]

She shut her mouth as if she understood the situation.

And her gaze goes to the little dragon.

[That child...]

“...because that's probably what that little guy needs to see.”

Just before the eggs hatched, I purposely brought one of the eggs that were about to hatch to this place.

Edrels' grandson.

The first face the little boy should see would be that old dragon rather than the sweet, gray-haired man who doesn't know who it is.

“Even if you don’t understand it yet, you will understand its meaning someday.”

“Hey, you blind. I'm leaving with that little boy. Because it is dangerous.”

Nerel nodded, approached the little dragon, and carefully picked it up.

[Come back soon.]

“No. You don't have to. Withdraw all other dragons. Let everything wait inside the barrier. Block only the flow in by any chance.”

[What...]

Nerel couldn't speak until the end.

Because the casting of the magic I had prepared while having this conversation was over, a huge five-pronged stream of lightning swept across the front.

Only ashes remain in the place where the electric shock has swept away.
